Comments on: Idol Headlines for 10/12/09 http://www.mjsbigblog.com/idol-headlines-for-101209.htm American Idol - I Love This Cheesy Show Fri, 10 Feb 2012 06:45:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: MollyAnnMay http://www.mjsbigblog.com/idol-headlines-for-101209.htm/comment-page-26/#comment-431359 MollyAnnMay Tue, 13 Oct 2009 06:31:45 +0000 http://mjsbigblog.com/?p=10075#comment-431359 <blockquote>Do we dare hope that either a duet or a solo Christmas song from David will be released as a seasonal single?</blockquote> I had that same thought, <strong>CathyMK</strong>. Carrie obviously has a new song climbing the charts (I assume the country chart, but is it playing well in other formats?), but I suppose it could happen if they do that sort of thing anymore. I really like the way DC & CU sound together, so I wouldn't mind. (Even if I am still totally greedy for "Lie" or a live EP or *something* before we lose all contact when head back to record. *sniffle*)

Do we dare hope that either a duet or a solo Christmas song from David will be released as a seasonal single?

But I also thank god for youtube and fans with good cameras that confirm my initial impression of DC: that he is a rocker, a band guy and great song interpreter, all of which got a little muffled in translation on the CD. I'm hoping like hell there will be fewer Useless People with Opinions involved with the next record. I don't need some patronizing jackass of an A&R dude deciding how I like my music. Phbpt. No wonder I listen to mostly indie and DIY stuff these days. <blockquote>sorry to post-ho, but Andy Skib's latest twitpic shows what happens when you get thrown out of the movie and have to amuse yourself</blockquote> PUMPKIN. Why God.......Seriously, why? If we’re still counting, I do like DCTR and still listen to it frequently.

I think it's almost perfect and very eye-catching, as I stated in the cover thread. COOKWOOD!!! Woot! I hope there is a duet! Does anyone know yet when this will air? I Need to mark my calendar!

It reminds me of a Hitchcock movie (not a bad thing at all)... it's the part where the leading character realizes that "something's not quite right"..Either that or he was sitting in the movie theatre that kicked out David Cook and friends and thought WTF?

It has a 50s/retro look to me, it's colorful, his name is in huge shiny letters, his face is clearly recognizable- all good things for getting harried Target and Walmart shoppers to notice it as they're walking by the CDs, and say, "Oh, that's the nice boy who won Idol. I think I'll check out his album," which is the ultimate point of an album cover, after all. I've been flailing for a couple of hours over the Cookwood Christmas special. Do we dare hope that either a duet or a solo Christmas song from David will be released as a seasonal single? Some artists do that every year. At any rate, I love DC, and I love cheesy Christmas music, so I'm a very happy camper tonight! I like Kris’ album cover, if that image is it.

IDK, to me it's the equivalent of having an author use their own name as the name of the book. Of course YMMV.
