Ditto, thanks. Wow, DC dueting with Mariah, adding fuel to the fire of a possible single release... I wonder how she feels about him keeping her off the top spot for downlaods on iTunes...?!
Does anyone else feel like DAs choice to reprise "Imagine" is quite cowardly? I feel like it just goes to show that he's not ready to put himself out there to take risks and try new things.
I think DC will rock U2. Legend!

Ok, daughter is on her way over (nurse_kj) for a night of Idol & voting. I ordered pizza for us, paper & pen ready to keep track of all our votes. I hope I have better luck than I did last week. I have 2 different phones ready for me in case one works better than the other.
Less than 1 hour to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi all Cookies! 
Are we ready to 'Cook' some 'Pork Chops'??
In case some of you don't already know. The archies gave 'pork chops' as a nickname to DA..

Thanks, but no, this isn't what I've been waiting for, I saw all of this stuff earlier on MJ's blog. I'm looking for TMZ's spoilers from the rehearsal, there's no rumors or guesses on it.
GAH. MJ's site is down half the time, and even when it is up, there are no new spoilers. Where is her mole?! And where is TMZ? I need the final spoilers! Argh, or at least I need something to get me through these last 40 minutes! If I pass out, I can't watch or vote! GAH.
Deep breaths. Deeeeeep breaths.
Deep breaths. Deeeeeep breaths.
Almost time! Good luck, DC!
My DH is out in L.A. for a biz conference and he called to ask me if Idol was happening somewhere downtown. I told him yeah, at the Nokia. And he said he was just there, outside of the theater and there were huge crowds and masses of press. He and his friend from work were both invited to be part of the background crowd of one of the TV Guide interview/articles. And he said no, because he was in a suit and tie and had to go to a biz din!
I am utterly furious that I didn't go with him!
But so confident in David. And so happy for him and his family. And looking forward to tonight's show!

Although MJ's blog is down...
Here is what she put on IdolForums:
First song:
Clive Davis
I've found what I'm looking for - Cookie
Don't let the sun go down on me - Archie
Second Song:
Songwriters
Dream Big - Cookie Rocked out with a guitar
In this moment - Big ballad for archie
Third Song:
Personal
Collective soul song - Cookie - Played guitar
Imagine - Archie - song was changed up a little
This is mj from MJSBIGBLOG. As soon as my site calms down I'll post more there
The setup was like a boxing match. The Davids came out in boxing gloves and robes. Archie is in this too win. He was very emotional after every song. Cookie held back a little

I am just completely upset by this. WTF?
As if i wasn't nervous to begin with....he's doing the CS song? Oh God help me. I'm gonna go and hide now.
Could the clocks in my house MOVE any slower???? 
I can only imagine what his family must be feeling...!

Whoa, those are different spoilers. People just made up the songwriting contest choices because neither of those has been said before. I can't imagine Cookie doing "Dream Big" AT ALL. I trust him to know what he can do, but WOW, that's a weird one. I guess he changed "when I was a little girl" to "boy." At least I hope so!
I also don't like it that he has the Collective Soul song last because it just isn't a barnburner, you know?
Biting off my nails now in solidarity with the Cookie...
Life's too short for not taking chances, according to "Dream Big." I am sort of wondering if that person was a fake mj... "Dream Big"? Really?

Seriously...these new spoilers are really upsetting. I can't believe everything we had heard earlier was wrong.

I just came here to check and this is mostly different!!! ACK, it's so close to the show and I'm totally confused, what happened, is this for real?
Dream Big, huh?
And is that still a U2 song Clive chose for Cook, or is that something else?

Tell me about it - they don't really regard this show as top priority.
Thank goodness for YouTube though.
I'll catch the performance clips first before catching it on cable TV later today.22 more minutes to Idol!!

I'll be off during the show too. I like to sit back and enjoy it.
