I remember this performance like it was yesterday. I was totally blown away and I am still blown away all these years later. I don't care if David Cook won David Archuleta will always be the American Idol for me.
One of several moments I remember from all the years of watching AI would be this performance, there's such an honesty about his voice, the talent is just beyond words. Imagine would be my utmost favorite of all time. Beautiful song sung by a beautiful soul.
every time i hear this song..my hair stood in the end..he really capture my heart..and many..even though he didn't won,,i know that he was deserving than his opponent..he's voice really capturing than cook,,cook was got rocker voice..while david..got an angelic voice..how i love him..
I downloaded the studio version from Idol on iTunes when he did the song but iTunes has since removed all the AI stuff I downloaded so - although its still in my library, I can't put it on any devices! I still listen to it all the time. He should record it . . . again.
I thought David A's performances during the finals should've earned him the W. It was like an upset since I remember he had some mid performances going to the finals. It was supposed to be a sure win for cook. But David Arch pulled a series of great performances. Even Simon congratulated him.
@MrAhM14 no one, it's an original submitted for the Idol songwriting contest in which the winning song gets to be sung and recorded by the winner of idol (in this case, "Time of My Life" sung by David Cook).
2018 its been 11 years ago and still I am watching how David sang this song with full of emotions and dedications :D I really love listening david I am a fam of him
Why are the better ones always losing these gtd competitions. I remember, David Cook is just a 1 hit celebrity who became popular because everyone knows Mariah.
He has a great voice, now, better than David cook, but Dave's was, more mature, and he was a better artist and performer, if the competition was today, Archuleta would win hands down, but in that day, the right man won.

I also think this performance was really good.
The finale stage was so grande and huge back then, so was the crowd. What is happening to the New American Idol now?
People stopped caring
sigh i miss hearing his voice on idol so much!!! the last season sucked =L.
btw, really nice quality on this vid
Bjss.
cool\
Who’s the original singer of this song. Anyone might know. Thanks!
Can this boy sing or what?!
Wait did they add in the screaming girls 😂
this song is originally sang by who>?
HE DESERVED TO WIN NOT DAVID COOK!(but he's has a great voice but david archuleta is better)david archuleta 4ever!one of best voices ever
I need a valid reason why this dude didn't won, I never understand
@checkeredroses No Mariah Carey is an Angel from Heaven...
Why are the better ones always losing these gtd competitions. I remember, David Cook is just a 1 hit celebrity who became popular because everyone knows Mariah.
i want your voice, i wonder why david cook win , i dont agree to him, you have the looks as celebrity compare to him.
He has a great voice, now, better than David cook, but Dave's was, more mature, and he was a better artist and performer, if the competition was today, Archuleta would win hands down, but in that day, the right man won.
A performance that I love so much and will never forget. One of my favourite.
