for those of you that download/buy the studio recordings, what have been your favorite ones this season? i only downloaded David's, a few of Kristy's and one of Brooke's, so...yeah. LOL. but here are the ones i listen to a lot:

in no order...

David Archuleta - Think of Me (i didn't even care for the live performance that much, but the studio version gives me chills. it's amazing).

Kristy Lee Cook - Anyway (amazing song, amazing studio recording. Kristy RULES. her recording voice is really good too.)

David Archuleta - Angels (again, i like the studio better then the real thing, though i like the real thing too. another AMAZING studio recording)

David Archuleta - Smoky Mountain Memories

Brooke White - Let it Be

David Archuleta - We Can Work it Out (its too bad the live version was...the way it was. he does really well with the song in the studio recording)

Any David Archuleta song! :)
Billie Jean/Always Be My Baby/Little Sparrow/Innocent - David Cook
Alone - Ramielle
Blackbird/Total Eclipse of the Heart - Carly Smithson
Yesterday/If I Were Your Woman/One Rockin' Roll Too Many - Syesha Mercado
Let it Be/I Am...I Said - Brooke White
Anyway/Forever/Coat of Many Colors - Kristy Lee Cook

Haha I have some weird ones.

Jason Castro - Michelle (absolutely hated the live performance, but the studio recording sounds beautiful to me)
Michael Johns - Dream On (not the best live, just okay, but sounds great in the studio)
Chikezie - I've Just Seen a Face (love the live performance, but it's a little over the top lol, the studio recording though is amazing IMO)
Brooke White - You Must Love Me (I don't even like Brooke, but I feel bad because her live performance sucked, as she forgot the lyrics, but the studio recording has soooo much passion and emotion in it. I wish she performed it like this on the show)
Ramiele Malubay - Alone: (Love the studio recording, but I think she struggled through the live performance)

And these are typical.
David Archuleta - Smoky Mountain Memories
David Archuleta - Angels
David Archuleta - The Long and Winding Road
David Cook - Music of the Night (Even though I am growing a hatred toward him for beating Archie :p I will admit that I LOOOOOOOOVE this. I am familiar with the actual Phantom of the Opera play and he kind of sounds like the actor who played Phantom when I went to see it)
Syesha Mercado - One Rock n'Roll Too Many

I don't have much of them, but here ya go, LOL.

David Cook - Always Be My Baby (I love all his recordings, but this is my hands down fave - it's my most played song on iTunes right now! :heart:)

David Archuleta - You're the Voice (Didn't care much about the live performance, but he sounds awesome in the recording)

Michael Johns - Dream On

Ramiele Malubay - Alone (She had it tough on stage, but her voice is clear and flawless in the recording)
