Island Girl by Elton John :::::performed by David Archuleta:::::I see your teeth flash, Jamaican honey so sweet Down where Lexington cross 47th Street She's a big girl, she's standing six foot three Turning tricks for the dudes in the big city Island girl What you wanting with the white man's world Island girl Black boy want you in his island world He want to take you from the racket boss He want to save you but the cause is lost Island girl, island girl, island girl Tell me what you wanting with the white man's world She's black as coal but she burn like a fire And she wrap herself around you like a well worn tire You feel her nail scratch your back just like a rake He one more gone, he one more John who make the mistake For the American Idol Question: "Elton John is one of the greatest singers of all time. What's your reaction that he's your mentor this week and what song of him will you sing and why?"
My Answer: "Im actually not a big fan of him. BUT i love some of his song like this one i will sing tonight. This song like..... OMG....!!!! As for you know this song is number #1 at 1976 and that is the reason i pick this song. beside that, this song is very popular, everyone know this song. so, I hope the Judges and the world will love it.

David, I am not a big fan of this song. I don't feel like it was a good song choice for you. You sang it well, pitchy problems here and there… but for me this song was just not the right choice for me.

I've never head it either... I thought this was somewhat of a disaster.The way you were running around the stage and imitating a Jamaican accent, if that's even what it was...not your best material.Sorry.
