Last Thursday, American Idol bid goodbye to the 21-year-old natural performer and personal fave Syesha Mercado leaving the two talented Davids in the final round of the high-rated talent search famous not only in America but even to other countries, like the Philippines.
While the two Davids may be equally gifted, it is good to know what could serve as their edge over the other. David Archuleta garnered my personal admiration since I got hooked by A.I. mainly because I have high regards to young talents. On the personal note, it is almost more pleasing to hear children and young people sing over the older ones. It is undenying that the younger David has on his back multitude of fans.
Battle of Davids in American Idol 7: Who's your bet?
This is not to say that David Cook failed to get my attention. In fact, the three of them [Syesha included in the list] are my top three bets for the season. Looking for a perfect package? That would definitely be the 25-year-old David Cook who IMO carries with him the aura of a successful solo artist of the world today. Win or lose, I guess he will really make it big in the music industry.
It is going to be talent + youthful charm vs. talent + maturity this coming final night.
May the better David win.
