American Idol 7

[a.e.B.O.T.]

I am REALLY glad David Cook won. He is the one I wanted out of the Davids... HOWEVER, i can't help but to feel bad for Archie, because I keep thinking that his dad is just beating the crap out of him right now for losing.

Quoted for posterity. I just wish the kid could be a kid and sing what he *wants* to sing and do what he wants to do after the tour.

I agree... I don't want him to be a singer yet. I want him to go to college, away from his parents where he can just live and find himself. I know that I do not know him or his family or really his life, but I just have this weird feeling that he is going to have a sad life, because he will never meet the expectations of his parents, and he really does not have the voice for mainstream right now. He would of been amazing thirty-forty-fifty years ago, but the only path I see for him right now is an Aaron Carter path, and well, that gets old quick!!!

Looks like the kid got a record deal, too.
