Hungry Like the Wolf
It's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Week, otherwise known as David Cook Immunity Week, though his Duran Duran cover is nothing special. He suffers partly for reasons beyond his control from a weird sound mix that makes him seem like he's almost singing a capella, partly because he doesn't have the raw sexual stage presence this song needs. But also, singing in something close to his genre means he can't do the David Cook thing of radically changing the song's arrangement. Maybe he'd have been better off with Paul Anka Week.
