What's sexier than a guy with a guitar?

I don't normally watch American Idol. This season, I have probably followed it more so than the others. I don't remember all the names. There was an Irish chick with tattoos. There was a rocker chick. It's down to the final two guys (both named David), and I think I'm only watching because I've decided one of the front runners annoys me, and I want to see the other one kick his butt.

I could be biased because I've always, always swayed to the rock n' roll side of life. I love concerts. I love a good guitar riff. I'm really not much of a Josh Groban fan. But honestly, honestly, why don't more people realize that David Cook (the rocker) has a lot more chops than David Archuleta (Yanni in training). I'm not even sure what the teenager attraction to DA is - he's cute and all, but has a breathy speaking voice that makes me think of a pre-teen that just got caught masturbating. DC has more of a laid back attitude that is all around more appealing, though I think I've seen a couple eye rolls with mysterious meaning.

Round 1
DC did a great cover of a classic U2 song. DA was flat on a lot of a classic Elton John song. He also looked like he was about to forget the lyrics while watching the camera move. The judges praised DA as if he had just pooped a gold nugget.

Round 2
Both sang so-so songs written by contest entrants. Again, DA was praised by the judges for an "incredible" performance, but again he sounded flat in parts, and no one knew the song so we can't tell if he made up the words on the fly.

Round 3
DC picks a brand new (well, old - The World I Know by Collective Soul) song while DA goes with one he already sang this season (Imagine by John Lennon). One of the best versions The World I Know that I've heard, and I've never been a huge fan of that song. DA didn't forget the words, but I still really wasn't a fan of his rendition.

Let the rocker come victorious!!
