• Judges' Comments

  Randy said he loves seeing him every week. He keeps it interesting. It's like going to a David Cook performance. He didn't think it was his best performance but it was another solid look for him.

  Paula said he's ready to go sell lots of records.

  Simon said it wasn't as good as Cook himself thought it was. He looked a bit smug throughout and thought the use of a recorder during the performance was stupid. He said he's lost his element of surprise, that it was predictable.
