You are great. My favorite moment was when David was talking with the crowd about his green, lycra, Matador costume. He is so darned cute. You have to just love the guy even if he wasn't also a wonderful performer, which he is. I can't wait for the single. What good news. Thank you for the terrific recap, all of the pictures and videos.

He seemed a little sad when he said it. It must be separation anxiety! Cook was about finished on his side so he came over and asked Archie if they were on the same flight. Archie didnà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t know. Cook leaned down from the stage and hugged him in case he didnà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t see him later.</blockquote> I have to say, DC's amazing performances on Idol made me a fan of the music, but I've never been motivated to seek out the Idol fandom until I started realizing what a great person he was. I never followed AI that closely, but always enjoyed reading Slezak's recaps. This season, DC led me to reading Whitney & Co's on-the-scene reports on popwatch, and it was all over for me-- reading about all those little moments, much like those with MJ and Archie here, made me realize this guy must be something special to care about his fellow contestants like that. A mensch indeed! Yikes, so fangirly/out of character. Will stop now, haha.
