Arguably KLC's most strongest performance [but, in a twisted fate of irony] ends up being her own "Kiss of Death" in a different sort of way [a week later, Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber's song "Jesus Christ Superstar" was for Mrs. Carly Smithson].

Kristy Lee Cook's American Idol: Season 7- performance track-record:

1) Audition Week: song- "Amazing Grace" [1.15.08], result: SAFE!

2) Top 24 [12 Women] of 1960's: song- "Rescue Me", [2.20.08] result: SAFE!

3) Top 20 [10 Women] of 1970's: song- "You're No Good," [2.27.08] result: SAFE!

4) Top 16 [8 Women] of 1980's: song- "Faithfully," [3.5.08] result: SAFE!

5) Top 12 of "Lennon/McCartney" song- "Eight Days a Week," [3.10.08] result: BOTTOM 2. David Hernandez is eliminated for "I Saw Her Standing Over There" over Kristy. This is where KLC's popularity on the show begins to go considerably downhill. @ this particular point, a noticeably massive "fan-base" erupts with the intent on sending KLC home. Their accusation: for Kristy's blasphemous crime of murdering, butchering & slaughtering a Beatles' classic. Don't worry, Kristy, I still love you unconditionally even though the timeless classic "Eight Days a Week" gets considerable daily play from my iPod.

6) Top 11 of the Beatles(!!) song- "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away" [3.18.08]- result: BOTTOM 2. Amanda Overmeyer is eliminated for "Back in the U.S.S.R."

7) Top 10 of "The Year You Were Born" song- "God Bless the U.S.A.(1984)" [3.25.08]- result: SAFE! Chikezie Eze is eliminated.

8) Top 9 of Dolly Parton's song- "Coat of Many Colors" [4.1.08]- result: BOTTOM 2. Ramiele Malubay is eliminated for "Do I Ever Cross Your Mind?"

9) Top 8 of Inspirational-Themed Music's song- "Anyway" [4.8.08]- result: SAFE! Michael Johns is (jaw-droppingly) eliminated for "Dream On" over Carly Smithson's "The Show Must Go On!" & Syesha Mercado's Fantasia Barrino cover.

10) Top 7 of Mariah Carey's song' "Forever" [4.15.08]- result: ELIMINATED. Brooke White survives elimination & lives to see another day (or 2 weeks exactly, lol).

Random Note: After Kristy Lee Cook performed "Forever," she stood before all three judges, & KLC was nervously awaiting Simon's reaction after Randy & Paula's. The dialogue went exactly like this:

Simon Cowell: "Well, you probably weren't jumping for joy, were you, when you heard it was 'Mariah Carey' week?"

Kristy Lee Cook: "I was just happy that I gave her chills. & I was like-"

Simon Cowell: [interrupts her] "Well, you didn't give me chills."

...Ouch, hilarious, but ouch (Kristy Lee would have the last laugh on her exit encore of "Forever" when she embarrassed Simon by standing on the table next to him & serenading him with her song. Aw, how cute. Just like "Kristy's Seat" during Dolly Parton week, lol).

WE LOVE YOU KRISTY, & WISH YOU BEST OF LUCK IN YOUR POST-IDOL ODYSSEY!
