In the final round of IDOL LIVE's poll of the week champion series, David Archuleta reigned supreme as the preferred finalist of all time, just like he has done in the past.
After trouncing his peers in the runner-up competition four weeks ago, Arch once again demolishes the field here, earning 745 of the 820 votes cast, or 90%. The only other contender who finished with a respectable total was Carrie Underwood, who had 58 votes (7%).
The fact that six finalists failed to receive a single vote says a lot about the people who voted to get them into the finale round.
To all of you who have cast votes in the champion series rounds over the past few months, thank you very much for your efforts!

IDOL LIVE Blog - Top 5 Perform (5/4/10)
Last week's results were a letdown, so the Top 5 finalists really must dig deep to deliver stunners. Because let's face it, anything less at this point would be a disappointment of major proportions. Hopefully Harry Connick, Jr. is able to bring out the inner rat pack member of the finalists when they take on the song catalog of Frank Sinatra.
As always, please feel free to add your two cents throughout the one-hour blogcast, with coverage starting just prior to 8 p.m. ET.
Tonight's blogcast features the music of Brooke White, Chris Daughtry, David Archuleta, Elliott Yamin and Lil Rounds.

IDOL LIVE Blog - Top 9 Results [Pt. 2] (4/14/10)
Following last night's showing of interesting song choices from Elvis Presley's songbook, two finalists will bite the dust after one of them was spared elimination last week. If all goes according to plan, tonight's eliminees will be deserving of their ouster.
Besides the expected performance of "Whataya Want From" from Adam Lambert, we can look forward to exhibitions by Brooke White and Miley Cyrus' ex Justin Gaston, who is currently part of the "If I Can Dream" house along with former Season 9 contestant Alex Lambert. There will probably be someone else but I didn't bother to look.
To see who I predict will be leaving tonight, see here. Please feel free to add your two cents throughout the one-hour blogcast, with coverage starting just prior to 9 p.m. ET.
Tonight's blogcast features the music of Danny Gokey, Diana DeGarmo, Jorge Nunez, Kris Allen and Syesha Mercado.
HITS predix: Jason Castro's 'Jason Castro' to debut with 15-20k
This figure is just a tiny bit higher than my original prediction of 13k copies. Be sure to be back here next week when official sales data will most likely be available courtesy of Billboard.

IDOL LIVE predix: Jason Castro's 'Jason Castro'
Jason Castro, which comes to us courtesy of Atlantic Records (the first album from an alum to sign with the label), features songs crafted by Marc Roberge of O.A.R., Gregg Wattenberg (Five For Fighting), Zac Maloy (David Cook), Espionage (Train) and of course Jason himself. There are covers of classics that Jason has undertaken in the past, including "Hallelujah" and "Over the Rainbow," as well as brand new tracks like "Let's Just Fall In Love Again," "This Heart of Mine" and "If I Were You."
On the promo side of things, Jason will benefit from his mostly small scale tour, which begins Sat., April 17 at The Loft in Dallas, Tex. He has also been getting some press, mostly in the form of album reviews by People magazine and Michael Slezak of Entertainment Weekly. But his next big television appearance won't be until April 22, when he performs on Ellen, so first week sales will not be helped out on that front.
There are also a few underground promo campaigns going on, like the photo competition being held on IBeatYou.com in support of Jason's latest single, "That's What I'm Here For." But these kinds of promotional efforts are not really dependable for moving CD units.
As a result of the above reasoning, I see Jason Castro fit for an opening of around 13k copies, which would be a pretty good feat for a debut entry with little promo. This would be above where fellow Season 7 alums Brooke White (High Hopes and Heartbreak, 10k) and Michael Johns (Hold Back My Heart, 7k) saw their post-Idol releases open at.
Jason Castro is now available to pre-order at Amazon.com

IDOL LIVE Blog - Top 10 Results (3/31/10)
It's not too hard to believe that last night's exhibitions were better than last week's, but there's still no reason to keep 10 people alive in this competition. Thankfully, we get to say goodbye to someone else tonight, unless the judges screw it up by using their stupid save gimmick.
Tonight's results show will include performances from Usher, Diddy with his band Dirty Money and possibly T.I. (fresh out of jail) and NOT Ryan's best new buddy Justin Bieber as first reported, but Ruben Studdard instead.
To see who I predict will be leaving tonight, see here. Please feel free to add your two cents throughout the two-hour blogcast, with coverage starting just prior to 9 p.m. ET.
Tonight's blogcast features the music of Brooke White, Carrie Underwood, Chris Daughtry, Ruben Studdard and Ryan Starr.

IDOL LIVE Blog - Top 20 Results (3/4/10)
Join us tonight as we blog during the necessary Top 20 results show. Is it bad that I'm excited for four more semifinalists to get the ax? Either way, it will be good to have Danny Gokey return to perform his debut single, "My Best Days Are Ahead of Me," during his album release week.
Please feel free to add your two cents throughout the one-hour blogcast, with coverage starting just prior to 8 p.m. ET.

IDOL LIVE Blog - Top 12 Girls Perform (2/23/10)
After carrying the early rounds of Idol's ninth season using the Chatroll platform, I am reverting to the CoverItLive software after receiving feedback that it is the preferred way to blog during the show's episodes.

Brooke White interviewed on "Christopher Closeup"
She elaborated on her charity work including her performances for children's hospitals and the Ronald McDonald house, which she has been focusing on over the past two months, and how she couldn't stop crying when she considered the reality of the trials and tribulations some of these kids go through.
As for her time on Idol, Brooke said the amount of success she's had doesn't pan out to "you made it!" because it's possible to fall into the "Idol black hole" and it's challenging to maintain a presence. She said she dealt with her "post-Idol trauma" (i.e. not being on the show on a weekly basis anymore) by taking her music on the road and pursue her career on an artist's level.

Poll of the week: FYI, Adam Lambert's FYE is FAVE single
IDOL LIVE readers handed Adam Lambert a convincing win in the latest edition of the poll of the week series in which readers were asked which single from an Idol alum was their favorite on the year.
Adam's "For Your Entertainment" led all other voting options in a crowded field of 19 other songs, taking in 102 votes (37%). Adam's latest single, "Whataya Want From Me," was back in fourth place with 23 votes (8%). Coming in second was Elliott Yamin's "Fight For Love" with 26 votes, while Kris Allen's "Live Like We're Dying" was right behind with 25 votes. Both nabbed 9% of the total votes.
In fact, only one song failed to receive a single vote, that being Kelly Clarkson's "I Do Not Hook Up." Seeing that she was represented by two more popular singles, "Already Gone" (18 votes, 6%) and "My Life Would Suck Without You" (6 votes, 2%), this didn't come as much of a surprise.
In this week's edition of the poll of the week, readers are asked what is their most memorable Idol moment of 2009. Voting will be open for exactly one week.
"Cowboy Casanova" (Carrie Underwood) 17 (6%)
"Battlefield" (Jordin Sparks) 9 (3%)

Digital sales roundup: "Battlefield" #23 (9/4/09)
A debut single from a Season 7 finalist spiced up the Idol representation on the most recent edition of Billboard's Hot Digital Songs chart.
Jordin Sparks' "Battlefield" continued to inch ever closer to the platinum threshold, adding 43.5k downloads to its total for a cumulative 893.5k singles sold. The single was down 9% in sales and slipped two spots to #23.
Up next was Kelly Clarkson's "Already Gone," which was up another 11% to 37.8k downloads, resulting in a current total of 255.2k. The single finally entered the Top 30, advancing #36-30. Daughtry's "No Surprise" once again fell a few spots, this week down two to #40, thanks to a 7% sales decline to 31.1k. Its total now sits at 745k.
New to this edition of the chart was Jason Castro's "Let's Just Fall In Love Again," which debuted at #59 with 22.8k downloads. These numbers are a good sign for Jason but they are not as strong as Brooke White's debut with "Hold Up My Heart," which opened to 51.2k tracks sold at #27 back in February.

Poll of the week: David Archuleta defeats all competitors in champion series finale
After fourteen weeks of competition, IDOL LIVE's annual poll of the week champion series edition has come to a close, with David Archuleta taking the top spot following a two-week voting period finale that consisted of a whopping 10 alums from the series' seventh season.
As expected, Arch took the cake with 11,595 votes, reeling in 64% of the total votes cast. Arch's only real competition was David Cook, who netted 6,257 votes, or 34% of all votes. These results are flipped in comparison to last year's results, when Cook took in 82% and Arch was able to amass only 17% of the votes.
Not surprisingly, none of the other Idol alums that were up for voting from the semifinal rounds were able to take in a single percentage of the votes cast, with Kellie Pickler finishing an extremely distant third with 90 votes.
After all these months of voting, it should be recognized that all the contributions from readers that have participated in these polls are truly appreciated and it is hoped that this participation will continue to shine through as we carry on with regularly scheduled polls of the week. In this week's edition of the poll of the week, readers are asked which celebrity guest judge would they prefer take Paula Abdul's spot if the spot is to be filled. You have exactly one week to vote.
David Cook 6,257 (34%)
David Archuleta 11,595 (64%)
Syesha Mercado 10 (0%)
Chris Daughtry 9 (0%)
Brooke White 10 (0%)
Kellie Pickler 90 (0%)

Poll of the week: Arch winning at halfway point
It's the halfway point for IDOL LIVE's poll of the week champion series, and it has predictably come down to a battle of the Davids for the second straight year. The difference between now and the same poll last year is the Archies seem to be taking the poll more seriously than their Word Nerd counterparts.
David Archuleta is currently in the lead with nearly 9,000 votes, compared to David Cook's total thus far of just over 6,000 votes. Although things started with a bang in the first few days of voting, it seems that the fans' fingers have slowed down in recent days. Maybe everyone is soaking up their last few weeks (or in some cases, days) of summer vacation?
One point that should be reiterated is that each visitor of IDOL LIVE should only be able to vote once per day. However, this does not mean there aren't ways around this restriction. This Idol poll veteran is very well aware of the whole cookie-deleting process that is often used in these polls, and if that works to your advantage, then great. If not, that is out of my control.
So with just one week left to vote before the poll closes, here's to hoping the fan bases of finalists other than the Davids find this poll and continue to make things interesting.
David Cook 6,108 (40%)
David Archuleta 8,743 (58%)
Syesha Mercado 6 (0%)
Chris Daughtry 8 (0%)
Brooke White 3 (0%)
Kellie Pickler 87 (0%)
Kristy Lee Cook 1 (0%)
Michael Johns 1 (0%)
Ramiele Malubay 1 (0%)

Free downloads: Brooke White's "Follow Me," Michael Johns' "Heart On My Sleeve"
Following in the footsteps of Phil Stacey, two other Idol alums are featuring singles of theirs as free downloads available on Amazon MP3. Brooke White's song "Follow Me" from her debut album Songs From the Attic and Michael Johns' current single "Heart On My Sleeve" off his new album Hold Back My Heart are now available to download on the digital music retailer.
There is little doubt that the fact that the songs are free is for the purpose of generating interest in the two seventh season finalists' albums, as Brooke just released her sophomore effort High Hopes & Heartbreak a few weeks ago. So far, things seem to be working, as "Follow Me" is currently #3 on Amazon's Top Free Songs chart and "Heart On My Sleeve" is listening to the former's title, as it is right behind at #4. Back when Phil's single "You're Not Shaken" was available to download free of charge, it managed to get to #2 on Amazon's Top Overall Songs chart.
Regardless of whether or not these freebies result in higher album sales, they should bot be passed up by Idol fans at any cost (unless, of course, you already own the albums these songs appear on).

'Idol' BB 200: 'Leave This Town' #2 (8/8/09)
Once again, a partial list of sales figures is all we can go off for Idol-related albums on the Billboard Top 200 chart for the chart week of Aug. 8.
Unsurprisingly, it was Daughtry's Leave This Town that claimed the top Idol spot, as it slipped #1-2 and took in 100.8k copies for the week for a total of 370.1k after two weeks of release. At the same time, Daughtry's debut continued to rake in profits despite slipping 19 spots to #84 thanks to an additional 5.3k copies for a total of 4.499 million.
It was a semi-surprise, however, that Jordin Sparks' sophomore album Battlefield was only able to manage 48k in its opening week, as it debuted at #7 (just as I called the latter in my predictions).
Up next was the Season 8 Walmart exclusive album, which sold 8.2k for a total of 43.3k and fell #49-53. Kellie Pickler's sophomore effort was up nine spots to #72 thanks to a weekly take of 6k, while Kelly Clarkson's All I Ever Wanted also moved 5.3k copies and fell 11 spots to #86.
Carrie Underwood's Carnival Ride continued to hang around, this week at #88, off six spots from the previous week, with a take of 5k. David Cook's self-titled album pulled in similar numbers, as it took in 4.8k and fell #86-90.
The final Idol-related album to chart was Brooke White's High Hopes & Heartbreak, which was down significantly from its impressive digital-only debut last week. It collapsed to 4.7k and was off 53 spots to #93.
Full chart positions and partial sales numbers courtesy of Under The Radar on Pulse as follows:

'Idol' BB 200: 'Leave This Town' #1 (8/1/09)
Although the report is fairly incomplete, there are at least numbers for the latest weekly takes of all Idol-related albums on the current issue of the Billboard Top 200 chart for the chart week of Aug. 1.
Leading the pack was none other than Daughtry's sophomore release Leave This Town, taking in 269.3k in its first week of release. This number is well below my original prediction of 390k. Additionally, the band's debut album jumped 35 spots to #65 thanks to 6.8k worth of sales, resulting in a total of 4.494 million.
The next Idol-related entry was a full 48 spots behind, as the Season 8 Walmart exclusive album slid #36-49 and took in another 10k copies for a total to date of 35.1k. Brooke White followed one spot behind with the debut of her album High Hopes & Heartbreak at #50. The album sold 9.8k on digital sales alone and should see a nice increase next week thanks to traditional sales being added.
Kelly Clarkson's All I Ever Wanted continued to slip in sales as it moved 5.9k in its latest bout, down from 7.6k the previous week. It was off 21 spots to #75. Kellie Pickler also saw a decrease on the chart, but her Kellie Pickler only dropped one spot to #81 with sales of 5.6k, down from 5.7k the week before.
Carrie Underwood was the last female alum to see her album chart this past week, as her Carnival Ride saw a 13-spot drop to #82 with 5.5k copies sold, down from 6.3k. And David Cook's self-titled effort improved from 4.7k to 5.3k and was up 12 spots to #86.
Full chart positions and partial sales numbers courtesy of Taylor and Under The Radar on Pulse as follows:

Digital sales roundup: "Battlefield" #19 (7/17/09)
It was a much healthier selection of tracks by Idol alums on the latest Billboard Hot Digital Songs chart, as the release of Daughtry's new album breathed new life into the franchise's lacking assortment of late.
But it was Jordin Sparks who kicked things off, as her current single "Battlefield" increased in sales by 9% ahead of her sophomore album's release. "Battlefield" was up #37-19 and sold another 54.2k, putting its total at 442.7k. It should go gold in time for next week's chart.
Daughtry followed closely behind with "No Surprise," which added 25 spots to its ranking at #24 thanks to a 39% uptick in sales. The release of Leave This Town was undoubtedly responsible for a chunk of the extra 50.5k tracks that were downloaded, resulting in a near-gold total take of 496.5k. The band saw two of its album tracks debut on the chart as well, with "You Don't Belong" entering at #71 with 24.3k and "Life After You" barely making the cut at #200 with 8.1k.
Another new entry on the chart came in at #114, as Brooke White's cover of Kings of Leon's "Use Somebody" earned 15.2k worth of sales. Brooke's new album High Hopes & Heartbreak was released to iTunes one week early and featured prominent ads on the music store's main page, which greatly helped digital sales.
Rounding up the pack in terms of Idol representation was David Cook and his "Come Back to Me," which was up 33 spots to #119 thanks t a small 9% sales increase. The single sold 13.9k for the week and is now up to 274.1k in all.
Full numbers and chart positions courtesy of bks on Pulse as follows:
019 037 Jordin Sparks, "Battlefield" 54,195 9% 49,896 442,704
024 059 Daughtry, "No Surprise" 50,522 39% 36,425 496,473
