  • Every time I see Dolly Parton I wonder if she has to be careful not to tip over....

  • David and Adam is the best!

  • Kelly, Carrie and David are the best winners.

  • This is the song that really made me start loving him. Only Idol I've ever voted for.

  • woow, I miss those days when I turned on the tv to watch David's performances :)

  • this version of the song is totally awesome!

  • Love this arrangement of one of my fave Parton songs. He is a fantastic singer.

  • "...never trust a handsome man."

    Then we can't trust him! .' )

  • i'm so glad i downloaded the full version on itunes back then! i loooove it!!

  • idk, but this is one of or maybe my favorite of his performances... idk y...

  • Probably one of the best Idol season ever.

  • check out my version of 'Hallelujah' at robspringer21

  • simply breathtaking

  • My absolute favorite American Idol with Carrie Underwood. I really hope they would sing together, make an album!

    Brilliant and what a voice!

  • Most memorable performance of that season! It was soooo goood.

  • Can you believe that he wasn't known b4 he got on the show .... wow

  • David won this season for a reason: HE'S BRILLIANT!

  • @Hunterunc So sorry! Voted it down by mistake! Meant to give it 2 thumbs up, 4 if you'll count my toes LOL!!!

  • omg thats so creepy lol. its like voldemort and the the professer whos name started with q in harry potter and the sorcerers stone lol

  • I see it too!

  • @elmzee AHAHA OMG XD

  • it figin froze i hate when they do that

  • i was digging it til 2:38..but 1 mistake's made up for by that performance...it was kind of cool, like a mix of rock, country, and a bit of jazz

  • very memorable performance.

    in my opinion, second most.

    first is definately gonna have to be adam lambert's performance of mad world.

  • @ohsheslovely dude that douche adam lambert's performance was horrible.

  • I like the live version better than the studio version, I haven't listened to this version in FOREVER.

  • Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.

  • Beautiful song its really gorgeous!! xD

  • im almost positive that its called the world i know! =] (the last song he sang on AI)

  • Does any1 know hows davids new song called, he sang it during d last season of A. idol in d final

  • is it permanent??

  • Yeah, I'm pretty sure he's talking about Permanent. I love that song. xD <33

  • permanent?

  • @urvas3 The song is called, Permanent, it's a breathtaking song. :) 

  • the studio version of this is amazing.

  • Does anyone know where I could download this song (studio version)? It isn't on iTunes :(

  • oh... this is a beautiful song...

  • he had a new haircut here but i like the old one better. ;)

  • My favorite American Idol

  • I love David Cook. Im not that crazy over the idols this year, Season 8. Don't like any of them. Im a big Archuleta fan, but I love DAvid Cook too.

  • I love him. Favorite Idol yet. ^^ Thanks for posting this ^^

  • this is the performance that made me totally fall for COOK !! I dont really pay much attention to AI this year. Kris's become the new idol but i still think he's boring. And Adam, yeah,he has good voice, good techniques [blah blah...] but im not so crazy about him though. I mean that many ppl seems to be impressed by his performances of many iconic rock songs but he juz doesnt bring me the kinda feelings like COOK did. COOK is just simply AWESOME to me !!

  • he totally s got this Nickelback style in a way.. and i love Nickelback, so i hope to come to like his album :)

  • Did he release any albums? i liked his singing a lot

  • David released his debut album last November of 2008. It has already sold a over a million copies and is still selling up to this date. You should check it out. :-)

  • ok, thanks for the info :) i wonder if it's in stores in Europe... 'll check it out online.. :) hope to find it, cuz i'm very curious :)

  • david cook is better than kris, adam and gokey.. best idol ever

  • Damn.. Why didnt I think of a cover of little sparrow!!!

    This was a great arrangement..

  • he is actually so incredible

  • Lo amo<3

  • Why is your comment on Adam and Kris doing in David's video???

  • yeah..what r u doing here??btw..Adam is scary..

  • DC-Amazing as always :-D

  • He sounds so great in here! ♥_♥

  • I do!

  • omg i thought i was the only one!! i dont really care for adam or allison i love danny and kris and matt im totally rooting for them!!!

  • DC and DA would so kick Adams butt!!!

    Though I do like Allison better than Danny, Kris, Matt, and Adam...but thats just me

  • agreeeed! i LOVE danny and kris! im not a fan of adam.. because he really isnt as original and such as people keep saying he is, i mean he always does the same long drawn out note thing every performance

    if you look at david cook for example, he always did a long note thing too, but he changed it up and made it differrent every time.

    i really do not want adam to become the next american idol! but unfortunately he probably will be!

  • yeah..Simon loves Adam bcoz Adam is cold as he is..he just dying to get the title..he always does the same thing every week..boring..i don't feel anything when he sing..no emotions..nothing..

    he might win it,but i don't think he survive after that..just an opinion..

  • I completely agree!!

  • agreed

  • I'm an Archie fan but I also love David Cook he has an amazing voice and he's hot.

  • I'm really not interested in "his look" either,and I didn't think I'd like him due to his appearance, terrible I know and this just proves that you cant judge a book by it's cover, cuz this guy can sing! Dont anybody freak out on me, cuz I think David is absolutely awesome, but I think Adam is right up there with him in being able to sing anything and "make it his own".

    good performer too, I loved 'Black or White!!!

    I was grinning from ear to ear by the end of the song.

  • I like archuleta. But david cook has a better voice His voice is like Steven Tyler.

  • why, why, WHY is he SO sexy??

  • love this song D:

  • I know. xD Omg "archie" fans. He got a cd too so just stfu. Please. Stupid tweenagers

  • omg there is an angry face in the back of his hair at 1:30

  • omg doesnt really seem angry, more screaming but that is awesome i want to do that

  • woh i see it! Creepy... :P

  • yeah it sucks so bad that it went platinum in 2 months LOL...i have the cd and its amazing. No skips on this cd. Love it.

  • wow

  • l really like this song. love the studio version even more. I'm curious too as to why  an Archie fan would come here to ask about an Archie video? go away. I see the face too. freaky.

  • I love both Davids. So, should I go away, too? :P

  • No, of course not........my comment was geared towards the archie fans who come here to insult, or complain about Cook winning. It's time to get over it, dont ya think? So thats who should go away. Rock on

  • Oh... stupid kids... I mean - I wanted Archuleta to win too, because he is so young and sings so well, but I was as happy that Cook won because Cook just rocks...

    And Archuleta didn't practically loose anything being second...

  • Mtanic.......... I thought Archie sang good too, and he's a good kid, But Cook is amazing !

    He absolutely amazed me through the show.

    Which is exactly what Adam Lambert is doing this season!! I love it! Can you believe Simon finally stood up and applauded someone?

    I was afraid I wouldn't like this season, but some of these guy's are really kickin butt!

  • Yeah, but with Adam there is no surprise, since he was pimped and sang like crazy from his first audience... I just don't like that kind of people - dark, make up, nail polish and stuff... but the tones he hits - some ignorant people call it screaming, lol - I mean WOW. But I like several people this year... But I always wait to hear what's Adam doing the performance night, lol.

  • Not sure how you can say that with Adam theres no surprise. 'Ring Of Fire' was definitely a surprise.

    And he definitely surprised me with the way he looked when he sang 'Tracks of my tears'. He did a great job singing too. And this last performance wowed me.

  • Well, Ring of fire was no surprise to me because I expected something like that from him and his vocals were typical (high, going higher and higher). But Track of my tears was beautiful and he looked great.

    Mad World was great too - I was at first surprised that he took the Gary Jules version and was true to it, and then he started going up with the voice and I thought "Well there's the Adam we know" - but again, he looked much better last night than before.

  • But don't get me wrong - I love it when guys can sing that high... :D

  • holy crap blood flooder i see to...crazy!

  • He Inspired me to write music

  • it isokay

  • What in the world does it matter what AI 7 is showing now ????? That was a year ago!!! You can see it all you want here on Youtube!!!! GEEEZZZ....Take a pill.....

  • Who cares where the video is. Why are you here complaining about it.? Everything is a conspiracy with you archie fans..its so hilarious.

  • his album has now went platinuum

  • 1:29 - 1:33...am i the only one who can see an evil face on the back of his hair?!!! THATS PURE SATANIC

  • Oh god... I have seen this video at least 10 times but never noticed it... GREAT OBSERVATION dude... it is scary.

  • good shot dude.

  • omg yeah in his hair, thats freaky you got a good eye i couldnt see it the first 5 times

  • It's not one of my favorite performances of David's AI competition songs, but that wasn't such an easy number to sing. I don't think anyone else could have done a better rendition. Great job,David!

  • We are never going to see another American Idol winner like him. He is the best winner ever.

    It will be back to the same old crap on A.I. with boring karaoke.

  • lol... I cant agree more! no one can ever be as original and creative as he was on the show.

  • he is absolutely incredible. he is sooo talented. he's my favorite singer.

  • Yah, he had guts to take on a song like that. Both David's rocked but I think he deserved it after all the risks he took over the season.

  • I LOVE the twist he put on the song! :) BEAUITFUL!

  • I absolutely love this version of this song!!!!

  • Really cool version, this guy really can sing!

  • Cook is a kind and loving person. While on the A.I. tour he visited Luke Menard (a former contestant) in the hospital who was undergoing threatment for cancer. Luke's medical insurance did not cover all the costs--Cook gave him some money to help cover those costs and it only came out recently when Menard talked about it. None of the other contestants did that.

  • hate it when people cut off judges comments.

  • This is so amazing!!!

  • david cook is awsome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!

  • that lady is from hanna montana

  • Cook has a beautiful attitude. He won by 12 million votes. It was a landslide.If he was any nicer, do you think he would have won by, maybe.....15 million votes?

  • Well, since he won by 12 million votes, it would appear that most of America didn't think he was any of those things.

  • lilibethc2002:"since he won by 12 million votes, it would appear that most of america didnt think he was any of those things." cook does have a beautiful attitude as u8myapple said. he won cuz hes got the voice, versatality, talent, chrisma, and of course, the fans who know he rocks and the fans that support him cuz they know he is awesome! so why would u think he was not any of those things? cuz u may not like him cuz he won? he won fair and square, move on.

  • davidcooksweety -- what are you talking about? I was responding to a comment by freemanbernie who was saying bad things about David Cook -- and I said that since David Cook won by 12 million votes, all the bad things that he was saying about David was probably not something that most of America would agree with. Since freemanbernie's message has been deleted, you probably thought I was saying bad things about Cook. In case it isn't clear yet, I am a huge David Cook fan. Geez.

  • lilibethc2002: sorry my bad: i thought u meant something else: i just misunderstood. and i didnt see that comment.

  • We like our stars to show a bit of humility, humble. After all, last week many of them were waiting tables or digging ditches. Becoming a star makes no one a better person, just a richer one.

  • Logicedia - before anyone goes after you for saying that, I have traveled the world (with the military) and, as an American - I can safely say - you are right.

    I would go out of my way to travel as far as I could from the bases when I was on Liberty mainly because I was embarrassed at how so so many of them acted and the cringe at what would come out of their mouths.

  • i love david cook!!

  • luv this song even though it's about a sparrow(that's a bird right?) i think so...

    other than that, it sounded GREAT!!

  • listen to the song. not sounding mean and stuff but listen to it.

  • OK, since you have no clue, I will explain it to you. The sparrow is a tiny bird. Tiny birds are fragile, love is fragile. It's a metaphor. You may (I hope) have learned about metaphors in school. Music is full of them.

  • yeaaaah i love all about you david cook! your cuteness, your voice, and your everything! makes me speechless ;x

  • I really love him and i love his voice!! i cant wait until the CD(26 days)!! He is really grreat!! I love his hit single time of my life and light on!!!i love all the songs he sings!!

  • I love him in all his songs!

  • I love the way the sings sparrow the second time in the chorus.

  • ooooww he was sick that night!!!!!! but he is soooooo cute!!!!!!

  • good luck to david cook and god bless him always

  • Help us:

Help us please. We need to keep the rockin alive in David Cook and don't get me wrong I loveee him even see my profile. Sign this if you agree that we need out Day Tripper back. Thanks so much and remember you can trust me I am a Word Nerd.

  • RockOnDC: People don't get it--to them everything is Pop and they classify "Rock" as Alternative music. Rock is "classic" and "All-American" and David Cook is ROCK. He's not tween/pop or pop he's ROCK. A "rose" by any other name is still a rose.

  • I can understand if someone doesn't like a song or a singing style, but I can't understand this immaturity with the "hate" thing. You would expect that from a 10 year old...maybe. Cook does an outstanding job on this with his own version. His voice is awesome.

  • what is a dick bitch? hahhahaha

  • Really? A whole ass?

  • Haha.

    Nice dude.

    I didn't even notice that.

    lol.

  • Are those all the bad words you know all strung together, Krissy? Not too impressive...

  • Learn how to at least use the correct form of "hole"...geez!

  • woo,this guy's voice so sexy,i feel so jealous for a man to have so sexy voice:)

  • every song he sings, he makes it a magical one. love them all... i knew u were gonna win from beginning to end...

  • ughhh

    i miss Idol Tuesdays and swooning over this man.

    :(

  • This was his first performance after the "the haircut" and he looks great! Love his voice here.

  • it was AWESOME

  • He could go into country music and still be a hit, I believe.

  • I miss watching him every tuesdaves...

    Can't wait for his album...

  • He loooks so cute! I love when he sings this song I could watch it forever!

  • HE rocks he is so hotttt...

  • Before this I knew that I wanted him to win. But this performance made me want to buy his future album because it showed that he could do different things musically.

  • Fantastic performance! Then consider the fact that he went to the hospital for treatment following this performance makes it phenomenal.

  • ...

    (speechless)

  • WOW...what an AWESOME rendition of Dolly's song! Gives me the CHILLS...Still sounds like a ballad and pretty urban, too. I just love this and Dolly sure did, too!

  • Im glad David Cook won!

  • I actually had the opportunity to meet and talk with David Cook at the Idol Concert in Columbus, OH. He's such a kind, down-to-earth person, and he even gave me a hug and a picture. <3

    I can't wait for his album to come out!

  • OMG!!! you're SO lucky!! it's my dream to meet him. i look up to him as a roll model..he's a great singer and great guitarist and i am aspiring to become both and he's a great person to emulate...i'm only 14 but i recognize talent when i see it.....ROCK ON DAVID!!!!

  • That's so unfair! I wish I could meet him.

  • I'm 4 mo.late, Indy, but had to say, you go girl! When these idiots make their stupid accusations, I want to scream everything you wrote in these posts. Almost no one had heard those renditions before David sang them, & he did sing them differently (certainly hotter), he increased the iTunes downloads of artists he covered on AI, made lots of other people money, and gave the ones you mentioned a lot of free publicity. They should have been kissing his feet and backing away on their knees. : )

  • I agree. I know who Cris Cornell is, but I had never heard of his Billie Jean cover. I love Neil Diamond, but Dave once again choose 2 songs that I had never heard of and he hit them out the ball park. During idol he also picked songs I had heard of like ER, So Happy together, Day Tripper, Hello, and Alright Now, and made them current and hot again.

  • look how cute he is!

  • awesome.

  • i loveeeeeeee him omg &hearts; he's sooo hawt and such a great singer

  • OMG! This voice it's just wonderful.

  • David Cook = Omigawd. >:O How the heck can anyone be so good!? I am awestruck by his voice everytime. YOU RULE, DAVID!

  • he sounds awesome! i can't stop looking at him or listen to his voice!! he's just WAY TOO amazing :)

  • He does such a wonderful job with this song!

    I love it!

  • who would guess that anyone could make this a very sexy song! WOW! Be still my heart.

  • he's really good in experimenting the old songs! he made those songs really great!

  • They both won. They weren't competing anymore and most fans if they voted voted for both from what I hear. David Cook won for Reality Star and David Archuleta for Rabid Fanbase.

  • hahahahhahahahha rabid fanbase that is very appropriate.
