Seriously, what a waste of time burning that DVD was! I will NEVER watch my Idol performances again with footage like this around. I am totally lying. I will watch them for sentimental reasons - but not if I want to see David at his best. It's like a total metamorphosis. This season of Idol was practically not a competition after week 7 or so, but if he brought this David to the Idol stage... The whole show would have been a ridiculous farce. I think he must have had mercy on them.

Don't throw away your DVD, I'd love to have it. Seriously, if you could copy it; there would be takers, I am sure. PM me if you copy it for others, please.

Yes, his performance energy on the videos and charisma that translates onto the big stage and huge audience was tremendous. I really think he was being careful and deliberate on Idol to try to win it, and now he can let go. Not to mention he looked extremely happy to be there. Born to be there. The Idol experience and the win has given him confidence in spades. He looked like he was ready to give it all back to the fans.

I would keep the AI videos; because it really speaks to David's Progression through the season.

Now he is ready to give back to his supporters, he is doing what he wants to do and loving what he is doing.

for real, do you have a DVD of all David's perfs on AI? would you please have pity on me and provide me a copy? *hopeful*of course i'll send you a self-addressed postage-paid bubble wrap lined envelope.
