Featured Song "Light On" by David Cook

We're going Idol-themed for the rest of the month and our featured songs. On Monday we hit ya with "Whaddaya Want From Me" by Adam Lambert. Today we'll talk about "Light On" by David Cook who won the 7th season of American Idol in 2008. "Light On" was David's 2nd single from his debut album and it went to #17 on the Billboard chart after his Idol coronation song "TIme of My Life" hit #3 right after the 2008 AI season finale. I heard "Light On" again on the radio today and it just reminded me how great David's voice really is and when match with a powerful song like "Light On" he can compete with almost anyone on the charts in my opinion. If you haven't heard "Light On" or its been a while you are really missing something check it out here: "Light On" by David Cook (YouTube)

David also sang tonight on the Idol Results show with "Jumpin' Jack Flash" by the Stones...definitely was a rockin' rendition that was very well received and for good reason. David has a new CD in the works (maybe this summer?) so we're definitely looking forward to that one!

My pick for going home - goes home tonight on American Idol

Last night I picked who I thought would go home and this time I was right on the money with Lacey Brown. She seems like such a nice girl but her voice is just not steady enough and on pitch enough to really make it through. I definitely wish her the best and hopefully she'll keep singing and improving as she goes. Also in the bottom this week was Paige Miles and Tim Urban. Paige definitely deserves to hang around a lot longer, hopefully she'll recover from her laryngitis and will knock'em dead next week!

That's all for Weddddnesday..have a great nite and we'll be back tomorrow with another post on waz happening in the music world!
