American Idol, on March 25th, featured the top 10 contestants performing songs from the year they were born. It was a night of strong performances, but one stole the show.
Born in 1982, David Cook finished out the night with a stunning, brave performance of Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean.” Cook's rendition was like a ballad with a 'hard rock' twist. Listening to the original "Billie Jean" you probably wouldn't think it would sound good to the ear any other way. You've got to hear this one.
Randy Jackson described it as “original,” “bold” and “molten hot.” Paula Abdul was “blown away” while Simon Cowell, remarking on how it was a great risk changing the song so much, told the singer he was 'brave' and called David Cook “amazing.”
