During his three song set, Cook did not follow conventions and chose “The World I Know” for his last performance. He also sang “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For” byU2 and “Dream Big.” Cook said, “If I had to choose between playing a song that not a whole lot of people know that I could get behind, or the opposite, I’ll choose the lesser-known every time.”

Ryan Seacrest, the host of “American Idol” said that Cook won by 56% votes and Archuleta got 44% votes making the win by over 12 million votes total.
