The performance David stole this week was Chris Cornell's version of "Billie Jean."

Fuck all you at vftw. How did he steal Chris cornells version? Kristy stole Lee Greenwoods performance, Ramiele stole Anne Wilson's performance. They do covers, whats wrong with that? You guys just don't like David because he is good. He has an amazing voice and he's a really good guitarist too. The judges praised him for being original because that is a version of a classic 99% of earths population has never heard and he found that and did a great job with it. Also, if you didn't have your heads up each others asses all the time you might have heard ryan say "Here's David Cook doing Chris Cornells version of Billie Jean". Go fuck yourselves. Some of us here are trying to enjoy talent yet all you want is crap.

Idiot. Joe Perry is from Aerosmith. Steve Perry is from Journey and they praised Michael Johns for singing a Queen song and they praised Kristy Lee for singing Journey's Faithfully. So that blows those out of the water. Idiot.

The issue is not with Cook or the Show. I was upset when I saw him do Eleanor Rigby because I had heard Godhead's version years ago. Then I heard he ripped off Hello too. HOWEVER the last two weeks the show has been very good about giving credit to the version of the songs that he's done.

If America forgets or doesnt pay attention to being told that its not David's verison or doesnt hear the judges say he's one of the most original contestants, then it's not for lack of trying. The show cant be responsible for the intelligence level if its viewers.

I agree he's got a great voice. And I think that when he can play his own music, we might actually see that he is original. However I agree, that hair has GOT to go! Can't the stylists do anything for it???

In the past I also thought Cook was a little too cocky, however he has appeared to be a little more humble and respective of the judges opinions as of late.

It's one thing to have a receding hairline before you are 30 but to have a big head on top of that is like majorly suicidal stuff man. Maybe we should vote for David Cook so he doesn't kill himself.... Nah.

What the heck is up with those gloves? Maybe she got blasting drunk and went and got a tatoo by Carly's husband and when she sobered up for those few minutes a day she is sober, she felt ashamed and dirty and decided to cover it up until she can get it reversed.

Oh, Cornell liked David's song but he is whining about it a bit too.

David Cook didn't steal the song.

Ryan told the audience before he performed that it was the Chris Cornell version.

Even on the elimination episode, they said it was Chris Cornell's version..

WTF?!

yeah, and on last weeks' episode, David was talking about all of the songs that he sang and how he was influenced by other bands covering them.
who cares if he does someone else's version of the song? so long as he admits to doing it, why does everyone make a fuss?

You and everyone else who is bashing David Cook for not being "original" and not giving credit where credit is due are a bunch of incompetent IDIOTS! Yes, David Cook is the best contestant on the show. That's not why I'm defending him. I'm defending him because you MORONS are leaving out the FACT that as Ryan introduced David Cook, he said "And now here is David Cook with Chris Cornell's version of Billie Jean..." You're a bunch of idiots who don't pay attention and just want to complain about someone! Get your story straight before saying someone is stealing. Fucking idiot!
