Awwwww, that's a nice idea, Christina!! I will do that. You are a very sweet fan to think of that! L.

Laura Thanks for your kind comments! You are the best! Christina

Christina, could you add my voice to the chorus? I don't have a MySpace account. Just tell him I love him and I want him to rest!!!

Thank you so much

Unfortunately I do not have a Myspace account either. Christina

My comments are in!

Why am I double posting again??? Sorry!

Great idea. Will do!

that's a very nice thought and if I thought for one minute he would read anything on that site, I'd do it...but with almost 60,000 "friends"....a page run by 19, and blogs that consists of nothing more than ads or promotion pieces...that page to me, is not from, or about David at all. I would doubt he reads hardly anything on there, it's too overwhelming.

a far cry from his very personal blogs and interactions on myspace a few months ago.

I know, I know, it's all different now. But that page needs some serious revamping if he really wants it to be something "personal" for his fans.

(and I do love him. I just hate that page).

I would if his people would effin add me. MAy 22 to June 10th and nothing. I canceled today and tried again--nothing.

I'm such a lurker and I never post. But I thought maybe this needed my post.

While I get that you're being a good fan, that the thought is nice, and you're just being a good person in general, I have no idea what you're talking about.

I thought David did great! It's live, and it's the National Anthem, one of the hardest. But he did outstanding and I know a lot of people thought so too. I think it's a bit wrong to jump the gun, that he'll think he did bad and will need fans' support, because if he was listening to how he was singing it, like a lot of us were, it's really not needed.

For further proof, here's what was written after he sang the anthem on LA Times blog:
I'll say this- if the Lakers play as well as the guy from American Idol sang the anthem, they'll be in good shape. Solid work from AI guy.

This is no big deal... I just thought if he were to read this, even though it's essentially nice, not everybody agrees. Nerves are normal, and I would say he didn't let them get the best of him.

I think Christina was just asking us to do what she always does which is let David know by our sheer number of replies that we all watched him, in fact I only watched because of him, I never watch sports on TV, and to let him know how proud we were of him. I posted on his mySpace to say just that. I thought he did a great job. He was respectful, stood tall and with dignity; sang it straight, and was very manly, and American. Whether or not he reads his MySpace is irrelevant to me, as long as he someday knows that his fans are still 100% interested in what he does and eager to see him.

He is my American Idol. I could never do one iota of what he has accomplished and last night was just another example of that.

I agree with you. He needs to know that he "made us proud" and our country proud last night.

I post there quite regularly and did so last night as well. But this time I actually posted to his blog announcing his appearance. The main comment area moves so quickly. I figured he'd have much more chance of seeing comments on his blog since not so many post there.

i will head over and post a comment this morning. he does need the encouragement!

I've also dropped a comment.

It's something to make him feel better, and with a bit of critiques - I've that feeling that he missed that.

I added my comment last night!

Thanks everyone for posting their love for Cookie on Cookie's Myspace Page! Cookie's Word Nerds are always behind Cookie 100% support through good times and bad times.
