So, what do you think the odds are that David Cook will be singing Idol’s farewell song this season? You know, the song that’s heard at the end of every Idol results show? In the past week or so, we’ve gotten the following tweets from David … 1. “Hey hey! Busy week! Mixing 🙂 and…
Editor’s Note: See update below. Â Today’s featured song comes from an Idol contestant who provided one of the few bright spots during that dreadful Los Angeles episode.

Those who watch American Idol for the singing might be disappointed this week. Those who watch for the drama … well, it looks like plenty is in store.
