It seems like a trend this year to slow a song down for dramatic effect. Or doing the first verse slow and then having the band kick in. I'm getting tired of this. There are so many great songs from the sixties and seventies, and it would be so easy to make these songs sound modern. I think David Cook has done a great job both weeks, making his song choices sound modern. I think the contestants should consider speeding up the songs rather than slowing them down. Make the song more rocking rather than slower and sappier. I think doing so will make a big difference in votes, if you can take an old song and make it sound current or make it your own. I get tired of people trying to be karaoke or trying to sound just like the original. Make the song unique, give it something different, make me remember your performance. Daughtry was very good at doing this, and I think this years contestants should watch last season and try to learn something from him.
