End Of Days

• 10:00 p.m. COOK WINS IT! I miss the moment because my stupid DVR cuts off, but I get back just in time to see him crying.

• 10:01 p.m. Aww, David! Don't cry! You're going to smear your eyeliner. This is bringing tears to my eyes.

• 10:01 p.m. He thanks everyone and receives a standing ovation from the judges (and the rest of the audience).

• 10:02 p.m. Cook's joined by the rest of the finalists to sing "Kittens and Rainbows in Heaven" or whatever the winning single is called.

• 10:03 p.m. I'm going to have to go online to watch Archie's reaction. Did his dad storm the stage to kill him? So many questions. Aww, Cook's brother is sobbing in the audience. This is the brother who auditioned with him. I would be pissed if I were him.

• 10:04 p.m. Pyrotechnics! Huzzah! Cook goes over to hug Archie, because he knows it might be the last time he sees him alive. He goes out to the audience and invites the finalists with him. He is such a classy winner.

• 10:05 p.m. JCas! You look so happy. You do know you didn't win, right? But you do win a chance to come hang out in New York and serenade me. Cook cries some more. His brother mouths, "That's my brother!" into the camera. Dude, we know.

• 10:06 p.m. Well, it's finally over. I am ashamed to admit that I am kind of sad — it feels like one of my children just went away to college. Now I'm forced to do something drastic, like read a book or actually go outside.

    Who do you like Whitney?

    I think I'm gonna have to go with David A. after last night. I hope he wins so his dad doesnt beat the hell out of him.

    I would like there to be some fluke in the voting so Jason Castro takes the title. But since that won't happen, I'm on the Cook train. Archie is too much of a Disney character for me, and I think the kid needs to grow and develop a personality of his own without his dad. If he wins, the Idol machine will take over where his dad left off, and that will be disastrous.

    I'm putting way too much thought into this.

    But if he doesn't win, his dad is still in charge. Idol winners have some freedom as to what type of music to pursue, having his dad be his sole leader won't give him that.

    I'm putting it as many posts as I can before it starts at 5 pm my time and I can't come here anymore. *lol*

    i didn't watch any of it. i was convinced that Archuleta [Clay Aiken Part Deux] was going to win after the way the judges were all over him last night. now i am pissed with myself because my boy won. the person who best deserves it won. Cook will have a brilliant future!!!!

    on second thought, maybe Archuleta got set up by the judges. their endorsement seems to have been the kiss of death. 12 million more people voted for David Cook. unbelievable!

    I was really only watching to see if JC did the "Hallelujia" song…and he did. Don't be ashamed that you ALMOST cried Whitney, because I DID cry and I will never hear the end of it from my fiance or his best friend. I got ragged on all night for it. But it was all worth it just to see him perform that song again. God, I love him.

    So, we TiVo'd it because my husband was going to see his friends band play. We fast forwarded through everything to the end. Ryan is standing there, about to announce the winner by 12 million votes "is David [breath]" —FROZEN FRICKIN' SCREEN. The damn TiVo stopped the recording at the exact second between the winning David's first and last name. We had to google the winner. Talk about a let down…it was like sex with no orgasm.

    Yes, Jason sang the hell out of that song last night…loved it, and love him!

    I adore DC, so I'm glad he took it. He was consistently awesome, so he deserved the win. I just hope that the bigwigs don't ruin him. He's too talented to be changed into some little harmless, milquetoast crappy singer.

    I will admit, I though Archuleta did a great job with the OneRepublic song. And I actually hate that song otherwise.

    That's what old Archuleta gets for singing Don't Let Your Son Go Down On Me.

    Clay Aiken sang it WAY better in his season finale. And he might actually encourage you to let your son go down on him.

    This comment got away from me.

    Apologies. I had good ideas. Didn't translate.
