        <p><strong>Sean and Stefan exclaim...</strong></p>
<p>Last night on <strong><a href="http://www.americanidol.com/">American Idol</a> </strong>(yes we are addicted... well <strong>Sean</strong> got <strong>Stefan </strong>addicted last year...) <strong>David Cook</strong> gave an incrdible performance of <strong>Michael Jackson</strong>&#39;s <strong><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billie_Jean">Billie Jean</a></strong>, the 1983 hit single. <strong>Cook</strong> slowed it down and made us love a song that Sean has freely admitted that he hates. <strong>Cook</strong>&#39;s arrangement was from a <strong><a href="http://www.chriscornell.com/">Chris Cornell</a></strong> (former lead singer of <strong>Audio Slave</strong> and <strong>Soundgarden</strong>) cover from his 2007 album.&#160; Although not original to <strong>Cook</strong>, the arrangement is what sells this song and <strong>Cornell</strong> will benefit&#160;we bet from the comparisons. Here are the <strong>YouTube</strong> clips of all three versions... you be the judge! <strong><u><em>Who sung it best???</em></u></strong></p>
<p><strong><u><em></em></u></strong>&#160;</p>
