Billie Jean is not my lover...it's just my new favorite song

Some of you have probably already seen this on Caroline's site. I wanted to post it, too, and didn't even think about getting it from YouTube. I am so in love with this song right now, I didn't even recognize it at first (I don't hear words very well) and Aubrey had to pull it up on the computer for me to listen to. We DVR'd the song and I listened to it again during commercials. I'm sorry, Tracy, but I think I even like it better than MJ! (It's over on my side bar if you want to listen to it. Just pause Olivia's music, at the bottom of the blog, first.) Everyone's making a big deal about how David Cook took credit for the arrangement and everything, but he so didn't. But, lest I fall victim to a pack of idiots, let me just clarify that he is singing Chris Cornell's (of Soundgarden) version of Billie Jean.

David Cook is my favorite among a few others (Archuletta because he's cute and aukward and Brooke white because I think she's mormon and I like her voice.) Overall thought I think David Cook is the only one that I would buy an album from and listen to on the radio. That's the kind of music I like and yes, that song was amazing.

I loved that song too & yes, he gave credit where credit was due. I saw Courtney's cake, it's beautiful! Did she use fondant for the bow? Get me deets (details) I'll see if I can make it for Katie's Bday

No worries Chey...I LOVED IT also. It took me a few minutes the night he sang it to realize it was that song. I thought I had just heard Ryan Seacrest announce it wrong. We downloaded it off iTunes that night. SO AMAZING!!!

Sorry, but nothing will ever top the original.
Tracy, do you still have the glove? I don't know where mine is.
