Speaking as one who's unashamedly been borrowing a fair amount from early 80's ZZ Top lately  ......... cool !

AI's not my bag though ....... didn't know that there was a new season final  until after it was over . Thanks for posting the link .

I do not want to be overly critical, but I did not think that vocal performance was special. It reminded me of a typical bar band. I love ZZ Top but David's singing did not add another Z to the Top.

I borrowed my 18 year old daughter's ipod shuffle today to find out what was listening to.  After Alica Keys, Kenny Chesney, some indie rock stuff, then........ZZ Top's Lagrange....what!!!!!!!!!!  I love her taste in music even more.

I just listened to some of David Cook's previous performances. My impression of him just changed--he is a fine singer. Maybe the reason I did not like the ZZ Top vocals was the mix on the performance--his voice was not up front enough for me. Also, it is kind of hard to step into ZZ and add to what they already do. Perhaps that is why it did not resonate with me.

I've been watching... since the auditions.

Say what you will but there were some excellent singers this season.  Although David Cook was not the best singer, he was the one who most appealed to the american people.

I feel like He's gonna sell a lot of records. (whatever that means)

What I noticed last night was that no matter how good the AI contestants were. none of them could stand with the pros.

Syesha sang with Seal.  I thought and still think she is a great singer but singing next to a seasoned pro she missed the mark.

They all did.

I guess in time it will come, or not.
