American Idol 7: The Three-Song Conundrum

oscardahl · 05-09-2008, 06:34 AM

On next Tuesday's American Idol Top 3 performance show, each of the final three singers (David Cook, David Archuleta and Syesha Mercado) will perform three songs each. The Top 3 week is a notorious one for the remaining singers. Not only are they faced with the task of singing more songs than they've ever sung before, they have to take a trip back to their hometown for an impromptu concert. When you add the additional pressure of, you know, simply being in the American Idol final three, you realize that the three finalists are in for a tough week. Which got me thinking: which of the remaining singers is best prepared to endure the rigors of the next week?

I think David Cook has the most potential to rise above the 'pack' - I use that loosely as the pack is only made of two other people.

He's consistently shown that he can handle anything you throw at him with grace. Plus, if it's that whole 'one song you pick, one song the judges pick, and one song the producers pick' deal this year again, then he should get quite a variety of song choices. That should help him a lot.

Plus, I saw that David Archuleta is the new VoteForTheWorst pick on another article. The last few contestants they've chosen seem to falter the week after.

I wonder if that's going to be the case again? Anyway, just a thought.

I love the David Archuleta theory Oscar but here is why it won't happen. You know if he struggles this week the judges(probably Simon) will say " I think you are in trouble this week" and then his fans will go crazy on the phone lines and blow everyone else out of the water.
