Stand By Me was so much better than everything else, it offset the Elvis song, which I hated. Jason’s Marley was indeed as bad as the judges said, and dooms him to last. I actually liked his arrangement of Mr. Tambourine Man better than either Dylan or the Byrds, but forgetting the lyrics negates that. Cook gets third just for picking Hungry Like a Wolf, which can’t be done well. But I like how he dropped the grungy voice for Baba O’Riley. Syesha gets second by default. But she also gets the boot. Jason has deserved it for too long and still survives. His core support must be substantial.

I think if David Cook had done “Love Will Tear Us Apart” I would have stabbed myself in the eyeball.

That song moves vocal ranges a bit too much (maybe because it was written for three singers).

He should have chosen “Waiting in Vain” or “three little birds.”

He seems so oblivious to what the judges say.
