He did a better job on this, than I expected him to. Closer to Gerad Butler's version in the film. Better than than Archuleta who sounded like Disney produced it and seemed to hard to reinvent it..I do NOT follow the AI shows because too many people focus on the hotness of the person and not the actual voice quality.
10 facts about you: 1 You're reading my comment 2. You're realizing that's a stupid fact 4. You didn't notice I skipped three 5. You're checking now 6. You're smiling 7. You're still reading my comment 9. You didn't realize I skipped eight 10. You're checking again and smiling about how you fell for it again. 11 You are enjoying this 12. You didn't realize there's only supposed to be ten facts Copy and paste this to ONE video & tomorrow will be the best day of your life(:
This is good, but it ranks behind the original recording of the crawford version(not on the movie) and the movie version done by Butler because it's not as dark as it should be when done by Cook, and it doesn't go anywhere/ends too early. Just my opinion though!
this song gives me the chills everytime i hear it i love his voice! he puts so much feeling into it!!!!! Better than the 2004 version love you david!!!!!
never knew an alterative rocker could sing so 'lovely' It s haunting. that he can do it. thats when u know u have the ulimate gift ( u are of a particular genre - yet u can sing almost anything ... versatility. The only other person who can do this well (I think) is country singer Keith Urban. Damn!!!! I want to be Christine!!!!!!!!!!!!! :( :( :(
I like the style he sings it with, but this is no comparison to the likes of past phantoms... To be honest, there isn't enough passion and depth in it, and this version is way to fast. I don't think he feels the music and the words he's singing.
This made me cry...again! Beautiful version (sigh). Must have been amazing seeing this live on tour. What this man does to my soul...I cannot put into words...
There's something unique about this version. It isn't trying too hard. I really like it! I did something different with this song as well! I was on American Idol this past season in the top 36, and I'm also from Missouri like Mr. Cook! Click my name to hear my version of this song!
weird to hear him sing beautifully, when he's usually powerful and emotional.. you guys kow his style.. but fucking fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck, this is amazing. :)
this is my fave performance every and i love this play and movie and it took my breath away when i herd it the first time i voted for him 35 times that night i think that was the night i fellin love with david
this was my personal favorite performance he ever did on the show i dont like Micheal Jackson so i didnt enjoy what he did with Billie Jean like everyone else did.
tht was the most beautiful thing i have ever heard!!!!! i love phantom of the opera and i was afraid tht davids version wouldnt be as good but O MY GOD!!! tht was completely gorgeous! it made me cry! if david was the phantom i wont to be christine just so he could sing tht to me. david i love u! ur are amazing!
To sing this good ought to be against the law....LOL. David, you're as beautiful as this song inside and out. It was wonderful to meet you and the boyz.. Can't wait to see y'all again.
absolutely unbelievable, his voice is FANTASTIC!! His voice is so....ahhh. I was concerned he might butcher it, because many pop stars have a tendancy to do that, but his voice was perfect for this song and is deep and gorgeous- like the Phantom's. :D :D :D :D Loveeee!!
I "love" him and his voice. Listening to this video, I want to slap him... his voice and the way he sings this song... it hurts to the core. It's TOOOOOOOOO good. He has nailed it in such a way that... I rarely listen to his version... for me... it's too good. It takes my breathe away to hear him sing this song. I adore his version, I wish I could listen to it more often... just my experience... no defense..only a thank you to David Cook for singing and sharing his voice to this song.
You can't anymore...the only have it available when the season is actually on. Now they have season 8's contestants on itunes. You can just convert it though. That's what I'm doing :)
I love this boy's voice so much !! Of course his training was in musical theatre so it comes as no surprise that he knows what to do with this song , it's the variety of genres he can pull off that shows what a true musician he really is . Idol will struggle to recapture the kind of talent this season had.
David Cook did an amazing version of this - the only thing I didn't like about this was the beginning. I wish he would have made the vowels a little longer. Other than that, excellent!
The most amazing piece of music ever wrote. aw inspiring. It grabs you by the heart strings. I have heard it a million times a and it still gives me goose bumps . Absolutely gorgeous song !!!!
He's a beautiful man- his voice is unexplainably beautiful and wonderful, I love it! I love him, this may be odd, but I would die for him- fore a voice like this should live on
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i agree 100%!!!! i am so disapointed i had downloaded the wrong version and burned it to a cd. i love butlers version so much better. it has alot more aggression. davids is all soft, which is not the right way. lol.
there can be no right way of music... it's however you want a song to be.... that's what music is about...! IT'S about expressing yourself so this is the way he wanted it to sound!!!!
I'd heard the "big voices" sing this song a hundred times, but David was the first singer to sing it so that I listened to each word, and FELT every moment. I had never known it could be such an erotic song. Go DC!!!
i really liked this song in the movie. the phantom really sang it well. but when i heard David Cook sing it, i was like WOW. i didn't think someone could sing THAT good. This was like the best out of the top 6. he didn't ruin the song, like David Archueleta did. (sorry, but Archie's was too pop-y.)
I disagree. I like this one, but Archuleta hit it out of the park, he put a whole different twist on Think of me, this is too much like the original, but vocally he did very well.
Actually, that was kinda the point. Weeks before he did this song, he had sung covers of a cover (Billie Jean, for example), or he used his own arrangement (like in Always Be My Baby).
It was his intention to sing this straight, without any changes, as he thought it was fine the way it was and he saw no reason to do anything else to it. Also, he wanted to prove that he COULD sing a song of this nature.
Personally, I think he's proven that he can sing just about anything.
Gaaahhhh.... this just makes me melt into the friggin chair, you guys. Especially the last minute or so. I mean, just-- wow. Another bullseye for the Cookie! :)
i like cook's voice, but I prefer archuleta... Cook sings this song very well. He could play the phantom amazingly well. I like his voice better than the real phantom! and I'm a huge Phantom phan!
I love this... I think it was a challenging song for him to do, but he sounds wonderful. I wish I can download it... anyone know if this is possible anymore? someone already said earlier that it was on ITUNES until the finals.
He sang it the way it was written, beautiful, this guy has a bright future. He can do Broadway , movies and recording Cd's. Maybe without this show we would never have seen him, the music business is so competitive, he could have gotten lost in the mix.
dang, the first time i heard him sing this i absolutely hated it, i thought he killed it... I'm an enormous Gerry phan, hehe... but listening to it again, David's version is bloody fantastic!! SO glad he won!
Does anyone else remember Michael Crawford doing this in the original Phantom of the Opera? David you do great, as well as Michael and I never though anyone could ever do that.
This is so awesome like when it first started i thought it was the original and I was like RIP-OFF!!Even though i'm not paying anything...besides making my parents pay electricity bills!!But anyways he is so awesome LOVE HIM!!:)
...wow, He's almost sounds like Gerry in some parts...but Gerry sings this song more originally, this guy adds more of a...IDK...modern twist...Gerry's voice is more...IDK...just better. But I love this one two
Well he sings it more modern because that's whats required for them to do. Look at the other songs he's done . . . "Always Be My Baby," "Billy Jean" (which was one I actually like better the way he did it) . . . but it's because of his modern twist on songs he won. (And I'm personally glad he did.)
He does sound like Gerry at some parts though. I heard that too :)
Eh, its that the fact that its hard to hit, but the way he hits it. He hits it strong and with enough control over the note that he has just the slightest vibrato, but not too much to it that it distracts.
i love this version! I've listened to it so much on my iPod that it is my most played song on my iTunes...ever, scary i know, but when i got it, i listened to it over and over again. i love cook's voice sooo much, he rocks!
I'm more of DA fan, but I do think DC does a great job on this song. It shows off his voice more than the rock songs he usually does. I was pleasantly surprised at how well he sang this. He got my vote that night!
by the way oops i was saying that to HPISMYFUTUREHUSBAND :):) HEHE OOPS!! U ROCK DC DONT EVER CHANGE!!! And u see the orange baller band he wears? He wears that for a little girl who is fighting cancer like his brother her name is Lindsy Rosa:)
.... I never said david cook was horrible. I was always routing for him. maybe you're just totally ignorant (oh that's an understatement) and read my comment wrong because I don't ever remember going against david C, only David A. Oh yeah, and really, "look in the mirror" just really pierces my soul because I know that you know exactly what I look like! Wow, you're cool.
No it's totally alright, i just didn't someone making false comments about me. And thanks for informing me about Lindsey Rose, i'm glad I got to know that information about him :]
listen, everyone, stop getting on uchoob00's case. He obviously is a pompus arrogant lowlife who has absoloutely nothing better to do than thrive off of annoying people for his own pleasure. So please, he is obviously not worth anyone's time because he is what we call "the scum of the earth." So, please, just leave the smug infintile jackass alone because obviously he just loves the attention he's getting.
He did a better job on this, than I expected him to. Closer to Gerad Butler's version in the film. Better than than Archuleta who sounded like Disney produced it and seemed to hard to reinvent it..I do NOT follow the AI shows because too many people focus on the hotness of the person and not the actual voice quality.

...wow, He's almost sounds like Gerry in some parts...but Gerry sings this song more originally, this guy adds more of a...IDK...modern twist...Gerry's voice is more...IDK...just better. But I love this one two

Well he sings it more modern because that's whats required for them to do. Look at the other songs he's done . . . "Always Be My Baby," "Billy Jean" (which was one I actually like better the way he did it) . . . but it's because of his modern twist on songs he won. (And I'm personally glad he did.)
He does sound like Gerry at some parts though. I heard that too :)

That note he hits at about 2 minutes in and holds... omg, shivers! I just got goosebumps! :)

it's not all that. really. it's not that hard to hit.
datwunkkboi 3 years ago
Eh, its that the fact that its hard to hit, but the way he hits it. He hits it strong and with enough control over the note that he has just the slightest vibrato, but not too much to it that it distracts.

Let's all keep our fingers crossed for Lindsey Rose and all the other kids out there battling such horrific diseases!

I'm more of DA fan, but I do think DC does a great job on this song. It shows off his voice more than the rock songs he usually does. I was pleasantly surprised at how well he sang this. He got my vote that night!

.... I never said david cook was horrible. I was always routing for him. maybe you're just totally ignorant (oh that's an understatement) and read my comment wrong because I don't ever remember going against david C, only David A. Oh yeah, and really, "look in the mirror" just really pierces my soul because I know that you know exactly what I look like! Wow, you're cool.

listen, everyone, stop getting on uchoob00's case. He obviously is a pompus arrogant lowlife who has absoloutely nothing better to do than thrive off of annoying people for his own pleasure. So please, he is obviously not worth anyone's time because he is what we call "the scum of the earth." So, please, just leave the smug infintile jackass alone because obviously he just loves the attention he's getting.
