  • It's amazing how he still can manage to make everybody laugh despite the situation he's facing. David is really a great, great guy ;)

  • Cancer always seems to affect the wrong people and families- seems the people like terrorists, murderers, child molesters have good health while honest and good people get the cancer. Doesn't seem right

  • aww poor david i hope he feels better :(

  • omg wow this made me so sad. i hope david and the family are doing okay under the circumstances... :'(

  • poor david

  • i salute David Cook...he has been very brave through the toughest of his time... rest in peace Adam....

  • Dave bro, If ya see this, man I'm sorry homes. I'm prayin for ya. I'm sorry to hear of your mourning. My prayers are with the Cook family during this tragic time. God bless Mr. Cook and his family.

  • where was this filmed? the two ppl almost directly in front of the camera i think i know them

  • Washington DC

  • Praying for David and his family, during the loss of his brother to this, dreaded disease. Prayers and thoughts are with them.

  • That came out of left field.

  • It did. I think that was his way of trying not to focus on it, as well as trying to prevent himself from breaking down; especially being he wanted to remain positive for the cancer survivors in the audience.

  • EXACTLY

  • dude i feel sad i love his singing and voted for him i was shocked to hear it

  • My condolences to David Cook and his family on the demise of Adam Cook. My prayers go to your family during this difficult time.

  • So sorry for his loss. Deep respect and admiration for his courage during a difficult time. Wouldn't wish it on anyone.

  • David is so amazing for still coming to this event even though his situation must be impossible right now!

    We love you David!!!! <3

    and we are all praying for you and your family right now during this hard time :)

  • this is so touching!!!

    david cook your an amazing person!

  • He is so strong.

    I don't think that I would ever be able to stand up there and even be able to crack a few jokes like he did.

    I love him.

    Him and his family are in my prayers.

  • i want to give him a hug

  • prayers are with david and his family.. I was like so crying when he started talking about his brother and he got choked up.. :( wow prayers are with David and his family!

  • DC -- you are so brave to do this so soon after losing your brother. Never lose your sense of humor. Sometimes the only way to deal with loss is to laugh your way through it. Our prayers are with you and your family. Awesome job as always!!!!! The ArchAngels are praying for you.

  • When my eldest sister died, I was in a crippling depression for a whole year. She was my "Mother Idol" when our Mother passed, she was my best friend in the whole wide world.

    David Cook is soo brave to stand there and share laughs and good will with those people. GOD BLESS HIM AND HIS FAMILY.

  • David is such a strong guy to be able to do that the day after his brother passed away.  What an inspirational guy.

  • sorry to hear david.

  • No, it was his other brother who ran for Idol.

  • Poised and elegant in his speech, despite the tragedy.  Beautifully done.

  • aw, i'm so sry david!!

  • i feel real bad.. :(

    God bless him.. :'(

  • this is heartbreaking.. thoughts and wishes to the Cook family

  • I truly admire David's passion and commitment to this charity.

  • poor david. may adam rest in peace.

  • Thoughts and prayers for Adam's family and friends.

    (THIS, is an example of WHY this guy's deserving of the word..........Idol.)

  • The one who tried out for Idol is Andrew. Adam flew out for David's 'Always Be My Baby' performance.

  • is adam the brother that auditioned for idol? omg bless him

    May Adam rest in peace <3

  • Wow, he is SOO strong, to go there the day after his brother passes away. I know I wouldn't be able to do that. David is a genuinely a good person and my thoughts go out to him and his family.

    R.I.P. Adam Cook.

  • I am so sorry to hear the sad news about your brother. He fought long and hard against a terrible illness. May he rest in peace and may your family find comfort in the wonderful memories you have of Adam in happier times. Remember those happy memories and never forget his courage and his fight against such difficult odds. God Bless.

  • This is truly sad....my prayers go out to David and his family. May Adam rest in peace. I know it had to be difficult for David to be there in a way, but it says so much that he could go and support this cause. I am sure Adam was looking down on him smiling, so proud to know that his brother wasn't going to give up his part in the search for the cure. This is truly sad...

  • I always have love David!! But now I love him more!!! God Bless you David!!!

  • David- You have a new angel watching over you:).

    May God Bless your family during this difficult time.

  • This is very disheartening. My thoughts, prayers, and deepest condolences to the Cook family.

  • David, you are in my thoughts and prayers. I can't tell you how heartbroken I am for you now. Just know that you are very well loved all around the world and the good things you do through your singing and your everyday kindnesses are always remembered. You touch so many!

  • I was there & it was the most heart wrenching think I've ever experienced. While the whole race had been emotional for a multitude of reasons, the last thing I expected was to hear David say his brother passed away the day before the race. The entire crowd started crying & offered him their condolences and hugs after he got off stage. I feel as if I've lost a member of my own family. My thoughts & prayers are with you, your family & your friends, David! RIP Adam, you will truly be missed!

  • Poor David... I hope time can heal part of this pain for the Cook family... RIP Adam.

  • David- Thank you for your great show last night at Sunfest in Florida! My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family!

  • RIP dear Adam. God bless the Cook family. We love you David.

  • I cried a lot.

    God bless David and his family, I am just really sorry for that.

  • Rest in peace respectfully, Adam Cook. Your brother kept strong for you<3

  • RIP Adam

  • RIP Adam.

  • RIP Adam. <3

  • oh my god... I cried too. R.I.P. Adam... I'm praying for David and the rest of the family

  • I'm really sorry. I am one of your 9000 friends. I lost a brother too and really appreciate the autograph you gave me at today's Race for Hope (when you were being called for an interview - I was the "last one" you gave).

  • This is so sad and shocking to me.

    I cried watching this.

    Rest in peace, Adam Cook.

  • i cant see the vid my computer is messed up.can someone tell me what davids saying?

  • I don't think it's your computer, mine's not running either, maybe too much traffic?

  • well my comp had a virus and we got rid of it but my security settings are messed up so i cant watch it at all.

  • Who else could so eloquently speak to and amongst thousands after a mere few hours after losing a brother interjecting humor, emotion, conviction and just plain old conversation...David Cook, you are a truly amazing man and I love you and your family. May your morals and values be contagious. God bless.

  • Tears, tears, tears from me....but what composure David Cook. I am so impressed with David Cook and the strength of the Cook family. I am an Idol fan and my prayers are with the Cook family tonight. Many of us lit candles at 5 pm. David Cook said it so honestly last year...cancer sucks...but the resolve to do something about it doesn't.

  • David, my deepest sympathies go out to you and your family during this unbelievably painful time. If you need to, take as much time off your touring as you need to. Farewell Adam Cook, you will be missed!

  • Hi. An Arch Angel here. Just wanted to express my condolences to David, his family and the fans at the loss of Adam. What David just did was so brave, but it'll be rough for awhile afterwards. I'm glad he has such a great support system to help him through it.

  • My thoughts and prayers go out to the Cook family.

    Thanks so much for recording this - wish I could've been there with you gals!

  • David, we love you. You are such a caring individual. You must know that you're now in that position for a reason--a reason much larger than your talent alone. Of course, people are fortunate to share in your amazing music. But more than that, your fame is now able to bring attention to the huge fight that is curing cancer. Adam and your family couldn't be more proud, I'm sure. R.I.P. Adam.

  • My heart and prayer goes out to his family.

    Wish him all the best.

  • May Adam RIP...David my heat and prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time

  • My heart is out for Cook and his Family....

    All the Archies are here for them

  • Wow...

  • my heart sank when i read the description. i feel so badly for David and his family. my thoughts are with them all

  • That's so sad!!!!!! :( I wish the Cook's a lot of luck & my best wishes & they will be in my prayers 2night!!!!! :'(

  • My thoughts and prayers go out to David and his family. It must have taken a lot for him to be there. I am sure he rather be home with his family.

    My heart goes out to him.

  • Aww, this is touching.

    I am going to pray for him and Adam's family! David is such an amazing guy. I love him to death!!

    RIP Adam Cook <3

  • my heart is breaking for him, even though I know he will make it through this loss, and come out even stronger than he already proved to be today. I love you Cook.

  • I'm a huge David Archuleta fan...however, I've always also liked David Cook. What amazing strength this took for him. I have a lot of respect for what he did today and has done for cancer research. My heart goes out to him and his family.

    ♥heartsong♫

  • My thoughts and prayers and with him and his family. Such a devastating thing.

  • :( I have so much respect for David. My heart goes out to Adam's family and friends.

  • omg..

    My thoughts and prayers go out to the Cook family. David should be so proud of himself for bringing awareness to this devastating illness.

    I hope eventually a cure will be found for all terminal illnesses. No one deserves to go through watching someone close to them struggle through such a thing. NO ONE.

    Cook said it best "I lost 1 but gained 9000" hopefully the 9000 number will increase.

  • I feel soo bad for David and his family. After the news that we heard about Adam fighting hard and then to hear that he died, its terrible news. But at least David has his fans and family that will always be there for him.

    RIP Adam

  • This is very touching and David Cook is a true star and very courageous for doing this!! My heart and prayers go out to him and his family!

  • David u r amazing!!! My thoughts and prays are with u and adam and his family and ur family. The Wordnerds love u david! :)

  • oooh thats so sad,I hope David's and Adam's family is okay

  • To all in David's family and Adam's family, my condolences. Prayers for peace of mind.

  • How heartbreaking. This no doubt was why he flew home awhile back to say his goodbye. May his brother rest in peace and my prayers go to Adam's family. David is an incredible person and we love him.

  • David is such an inspiration. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

  • rip<3

  • Such strength...he shows such strength. I just love him even more every day. Such an amazing man, truly amazing. You have the love and support of all of your fans, family and friends. WE LOVE YOU DAVID! Thinking of David and all of Adam's family at such a difficult time in their lives.

  • my thoughts and prayers are with his family :(

  • This is very sad news, I am in tears right now. David is so brave to be up there doing what he is doing right now, I know if I was in his shoes I wouldn't be able to. RIP Adam

  • My love, thoughts and prayers will be with David and his family. His musical talent, which is enormous, is just one tiny reason so many people have been so taken with him. The biggest reason, I think, is his huge heart.

    It's hard to believe this beautiful young man has such maturity and grace at 26 y/o. He amazes me more every day.

  • this is so sad

    =[

    I'm praying for you and your family David.

  • Amazing stuff and how brave of him to still be there and take part. You're an inspiration David.

    Hugs to you and Andrew x

    R.I.P Adam x

  • R.I.P Adam Cook =[

  • love you always david...

    did everybody in the band do the run??or just david?

  • Just David. The band was moving towards the next show. His other brother andrew didn't go.

  • My thoughts and prayers are with David and his family.

  • David is just a great human being, his sense of commitment don't go away even in the worst situations, he finished the race and even talked with grace with that huge pain going on. We all know he loves his brothers so much and I can only imagine what is to lose a beloved one, my prayers are with you and all your family, and just know there are many many fans of yours that love you so so much. Rest In Peace Adam Cook. :(

  • He is awesome, isn't he? What a wonderful person. Thanks, MF, for videoing this. I knew someone would. (I was there but drenched.)

  • We all love you and are here for you, David. {{{HUGS}}}
