Good guys really do win

To David Cook,

For every time you blew us away with your amazing vocal ability…

For every time you dared to be original and different…

For when you chose to be unpredictable by being predictable when you did Music of the Night…

For calling the great and incredible Andrew Lloyd Webber “the dude”…

For choosing to do Little Sparrow during Dolly Parton week…

For every stupid/silly/dorky joke or comment that made us laugh or smile…

For every smile you gave whether it be a full out smile like when you won or a half smile/smirk while performing…

For every tear that you cried because you were so moved by the performance and everything going on around you…

For all the emotion that you poured into every performance…

For every time that your emotion moved people to tears or at the very least caused their eyes to well up…

For every time you comforted or complimented another contestant on the show…

For thinking of other people’s sorrow over your own joy like when they announced you were moving on to the top two your first reaction was to hug Syesha instead of rejoicing for yourself…

For every time you showed how much you love and appreciate those who matter to you, like your family or former music teacher…

For every time you were completely and genuinely blown away by the amount of support you received…

For being confident in your talents up to a point and then being so certain that you were always going to be the one going home…

For every time you chose to play guitar…

For putting your brother’s initials on your guitar as a way of showing support…

For not wanting sympathy votes, instead wanting to win or lose based on your own merit…

For winning the entire show on your own merit…

For all the appreciation you continually show to your fans…

For being an American Idol who absolutely deserves the title in spite of any negative things anyone might say…

For being a gentleman first and a competitor second…

For simply just being you, for being David Cook..
