Finale - Winning Song!

[David Cook]

Jordin Sparks - This is My Now



There was a time I put my dreams away
Living in a shell
Hiding from myself

There was a time when I was so afraid
Thought id reach the end but baby that was then
I am made of more than my yesterdays

This is my now and I am really in the moment Cause I look around I can't believe the love I see
My fears behind me Your not a shadows in down
That was then this is my now

I had to decided was I gonna play it safe
Well it's somewhere deep inside
Trying to take a side
And find the strength to take that step I made

This is my now and I am really in the moment
Cause I look around I can't believe the love I see
My fears behind me Your not a shadows in down
That was then this is my now

I have courage like never before yeahh
Settle for this but im ready for more
Ready for more

This is my now and I am really in the moment
Cause I look around I can't believe the love I see
My fears behind me Your not a shadows in down
That was then this is my now

This is my now and I am really in the moment
Cause I look around I can't believe the love I see
My fears behind me Your not a shadows in down
That was then this is my now
This is my now

Wow! Didn't expect that would be so damn good! You chose a version that was so emotional, definitely deffirent from Jordin's version. I liked it a lot. Awesome job, David! Good Luck!

I also LOVE this song. Favorite winning song EVER.
I was kinda shocked when you picked it. But after looking at the video and all. I loved it, I really enjoyed your slow version.

[David Cook]

Thanks Judges!

[Celine Dion]

Like Kara I was quite shocked when you chose that song. However your version was great! It wasn't my favorite performance from you but I still loved it.
