David Cook Singing "The World I Know"-American Idol Finale

Even though I would have liked to hear David Cook sing a song that rocks a little bit more, it was refreshing to hear the tender side of his voice through this ballad.

More importantly, even if not everyone agreed with his song choice here, DC definitely sang this from his heart and was moved to tears at the end. It was beautiful.

I've heard some criticizing him for his response to Simon's criticism. When DC said that he wanted to sing a song that he hadn't sang before on the show, that each week had been a progression, I don't think he was taking a mean-spirited slam at David Archuleta (because Archuleta repeated Imagine). He was just being honest and chose to take more of a risk by doing something different.
