David Cook is the new American Idol

It seems like yesterday when American Idol’s Season 7 begun; thousands of idol-wanna be’s flocked the various audition cities in the US and millions from all over world tuned in to witness the search for the next American Idol.

And now, the search is over, David Cook wins!

After outlasting 11 contestants and going neck-to-neck with young David Archuletta, the 25-year-old Texas-born rocker has captured the hearts of the American people and won by 12 million votes (a world record!).

This sure is one good day for me! I am close to tears watching a teary Cook singing his victory song, Time of My Life. I’ve been jumping in glee upon his ‘proclamation’.

Congratulations DC!
