TFTNT Jas! Good title.

Hm, should we add his AI performances to the OP?

You're welcome! Thought the title would inspire some rewatches.

Maybe we should! How should we link/post them?

Yeah, I would like to continue the rewatch but I don't know what happens to it.

Maybe we could have little banners as links to the videos on YT? That way it would look pretty and not be too heavy like embedding the vids would be.

That's a cool idea and I think I get what you mean.

Like a little art banner you can click on and it goes to the yt link?

What size are you thinking would be best?

Exactly like that.

I think the banners could be a little smaller than the one in the OP right now. Maybe like half of it? That way it would look a little neater, right?

Neater is always a good thing. And smaller is ideal since it's easier to load.

I can try to experience with a few sizes and see what could work.

Yeah, since it's gonna be pretty image heavy, it's better to keep the banners rather small.

That would be awesome. You probably have the same idea of using a pic from each performance and maybe having the name of the song there too?

That's what I was thinking. Haha, yeah. Pictures and titles are a must.

Is there a good list of all of David's performance somewhere? Wikipedia maybe.

It will be fun to rewatch David's auditions again. His hair rivals vampire David's.

Wikipedia should have everything from the semifinals. There are also videos of his audition (of course) and the Hollywood rounds on YT so we could include those. These are the songs he performed (correct me if I'm wrong or forgot something):

Livin' On A Prayer
(Everything I Do) I Do It for You
Happy Together
All Right Now
Hello
Eleanor Rigby
Day Tripper
Billie Jean
Little Sparrow
Innocent
Always Be My Baby
The Music of the Night
I'm Alive
All I Really Need Is You
Hungry Like the Wolf
Baba O'Riley
The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face
Dare You to Move
I Don't Want to Miss a Thing
I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
Dream Big
The World I Know
(The Time of My Life)

Quite a list.

Ah, thanks for the list! Of course I'll double check but it does look accurate.

Some of those performances I don't remember as much, need to rewatch!


His 'The World I Know' performance is one of my favorites. I got chills.

I'm pretty sure it's accurate, I checked Wikipedia. I don't think there was more than that one Hollywood performance between his audition and the semifinals but maybe that should be checked though.

I want to rewatch too! Maybe after we've revamped the OP, we could continue the rewatch?

Me too. I just listened to it today and it's just exquisite. One of the most amazing moments on the Idol stage ever.

I hope all those performances are on youtube. *crosses fingers*

Sounds good. I'll try my best to see what I can do to make some presentable banners.

It was so, so good. I hope the audience was in awe, because I was. Just talking about it makes me want to rewatch that performance.

I know I had an HD download of that performances but now I can't find it, darn. I would love to post some gorgeous caps.

I think most of them if not all are on YT. And thanks for making the banners. Let me know if you need help, basically there's no reason why I couldn't at least try my hand at making them too.

I bet they were, I know I was. The only one who wasn't must have been Simon. I loved what Paula said after the performance about "standing in his truth", that was the best and sanest thing anyone has ever said on that show.

Aw no, I hope you can find the HD download. I would love to see caps, they would definitely be gorgeous.
