Original Air Date: April 1, 2008
Theme: Dolly Parton
The best thing about David Cook’s highly praised performance last week was he was gaining more self-confidence in coming in to the top 9. He knew how the game of popularity and talent should be played. He explained eloquently to Ryan about his effort on googling for obscure versions of the song that he had chosen or re-arranged it in order to make it original or current and would fit for his raspy rock vocals. So far, it worked for him. He is a very intelligent guy.
Now here’s the best thing for this episode, he showed up on the stage looking so stunning in his new haircut. The glam squad for David Cook was doing a great job in making him so attractive. The terrible emo hairstyle that hides his beauty was finally gone. He looked like a star and he strikingly resembled to actor Mark Whalberg, just a thought. Paula Abdul cannot help herself to notice. Again, after his haunting rendition of Dolly Parton’s classic ballad Little Sparrow which he sang using his original arrangement, the judges collectively praised his performance. Simon said he was impressed that he can make singing a song about a sparrow good.
Sadly without anyone’s knowledge, during the show he had been suffering from high blood pressure. He was experiencing heart palpitation and passed out before he can even go on the stage to sing. Still, he eventually decided to go through to his performance and was taken to the hospital for immediate medical care after. Reports were telling about the reason for his bad health condition was David Cook’s family problem. He was so much stressed out of thinking about his sick brother Adam who was suffering from cancer. This was David’s hardest moment in the competition so far.
