David impressed us with his vocals and risky song selections that were staples of the airwaves and firmly embedded in our national entertainment psyche. Catch Cook’s rendition of Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean” where he lifted the high water mark of Michael’s catalogue and plopped it into the world of ballads. Perfect.
