[FRSJ204]

[MySaviour87]

I'm the 100th voted up..lol

[jakeiverson57]

I get chills every time I see that shot of his brother.

[bsmidkiff]

@shooowan very enjoyable comment, very well thought out so that you sound like a complete arrogant prick instead of an ignorant one, appreciate it for what he did not that someone else did it, haha, fag

[shooowan]

mariah's version is an incredible benchmark of form, melody and subtle construction in pop music. this is a halfassed cover, given the same cheap treatment with soaring strings that every boring country/pop song receives nowadays. there really isn't a comparison

[yumeoflight1]

@shooowan In your opinion. It's nice to hear it from a male perspective. And really? I'd love to see you do it better. Don't judge something, you probably couldn't re-produce.

[VitalSoX]

@shooowan +1111 none can beat the Queen...

[indispensablegurl]

The first time I hear you singing this song i instantly fell in love with you..

[atfallday]

the best performance EVER on an American Idol stage, give me chills when the violins start playing!!

[JayDee123321]

/watch?v=1cchDs_G350&feature=r­elated please watch , I countdown my top 100 songs of all time

[tarajade87]

@multipastilan haha! love it

[punishr420]

when i saw this on idol, i became a fan

[manu100291]

I wasn't really a big fan of American Idol, 'til I saw this episode :)

[atrayu90602]

I met him.

[Ta1on10]

Best Idol performance is David Cook "Permanent". Hands down!

[meganreaugh]

25 people don't know true talent 

[greycorefulable]

for the first time i hear this WOW... !!!!! "Ooh darling cause you'll always be my baby" Awoooooooooooooooooooooo......­...............

[ddods14]

best idol performance ever

[bakerclara22]

:D I like his voice.

[MrRahasia88]

cool !!!!

[carmeenamack]

What's that David? You want me to have your babies? Oh, alright, go on then!

[andrymulyono]

OMG i always like this song

[GREEKCOOKIE2]

HIS VOICE, HAUNTING VERSION, THAT COOK LOOK...... CAN MAKE ALL THE LADIES...N MEN A LITTLE HOT N BOTHERED...LOVE U DC,,,U'II ALWAYS BE MY BABY .... U ROCK...4EV<3

[JackDammitRun]

fucking love david cook

[KateConan]

He sang the song really well in terms of a male version. And because it's a male version then it's stupid to compare his version to Mariah's. And I prefer Mariah's because she moves me with those high notes at the end of the song.

[303Jessy]

O no he's good but he should of done another song....killed a classic

[AvelShin]

David Cook made "Always Be My Baby" into a real song.

[Markitikki]

@AvelShin "Always Be My Baby" is a REAL song and Mariah's version is ALWAYS better. -.-

[strawberrycreme321]

Still listening in 2011 because it's that GOOD!

[pompsukka]

@strawberrycreme321 andd.. still listening in 2012 <3

[BajcoTheSinger]

0:47 - LOVE mariah's smile xD

[theGLEEfull1]

It would be nice if all the people who watch this video would buy his new album. It crushes me to think that it's not doing too well. Go buy it everyone! I love David Cook!

[MrRafaGK]

The best !!! Yes he is the IDOL

[sisiludo1]

i think this is by far THE BEST performance on idol EVER. It is brilliant! if only he'd kept this spirit is his album, that might`ve worked out.

[westernduckies1]

this performance is over three years old, but it still my favorite idol performance ever! this is what american idol needs again, someone who separates themselves from the rest of the contestants. And i don't mean by having flaming pianos and eccentric costumes, but a beautiful voice and daring arrangements that people will love no matter what! thank you mr. david cook!

[theGLEEfull1]

@westernduckies1 Thank you! I can't watch Idol anymore because even when contestants are terrible, they call it "wonderful". I just watch old Youtube videos now, because the contestants actually had to be good to be praised. ...Usually.

[kkgoulart]

Best Idol ever

[mnplummer]

Gives me goosebumps



[tennyc20]

It breaks my heart to watch this and see Adam in the background. But it was an amazing performance. I believe the best Idol performance to date.

[BoUnDnBrOkEn627]

@tennyc20 agreed although it's not doing too shabby... The thing is his last album had a major push because it was promoted a lot more by Fox and American Idol since he was the reigning "American Idol" and now They've moved on to promoting Scotty... So, in a way this sophomore album is like his debut album since it's the first major release of his w/ out the AI push...

[r0ck99videos]

He is so handsome

[chuggggggy]

so over 3 years of this video posted and you can't see the dislike bar! I rather recommend to remove the dislike button, to be fair. David Cook is the best male Idol winner to be honest.

[banantwon]

I like the original better

[coatlicue2012]

David is good, but I'd rather have sex with Mariah, thank you very much ;)-

[dealovie]

@coatlicue2012 Hahaha but i prefer kissed by David *of course, cuz like men XD

[sirfortiscue]

When I listen to this version of the song I always picture it being in a movie where the guy is trying to get the the girl in time before it's too late. You can just imagine the guy in the movie going through the hell just to get to her before she leaves on some plane.

I know i'm corny. :p

[layneLFie]

@sirfortiscue hahahaha! you're right, you are corny! hahaha

[Antikaku99]

MC almost commited suicide in this version :P



[cutych69]

perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Friholys]

He rocked songs out of his genre... Just imagine if he was to play his Genre IN AMERICAN IDOL... he would have raped the competition over and over.

[Mezzles23]

Shut up and enjoy, to EACH his OWN. Be it DC or MC, how I like to phrase it myself because I like both of them is that, if Mariah was ever going to be a male, she'd definitely be David Cook!

[BorjanSurf6]

Thumbs if you watching this in 2011 !:)

[cornbreadconverse]

ive been in love with him from day one and still am<3

[chiopeefillin]

HE IS THE MOST CONSISTENT IDOL EVER ! & THAT IS WHY HE WON BY 12 MILLION VOTES !

[hardr0ck]

the arrangement was pretty good, but he sang this in way too low a key. I would've rather had him sing the verses and chorus higher and gave us less of the obligatory screaming.

But it's not like he had a chance in topping Mariah's version anyway.

[awesome2271]

Woah! I have goosies all over me the whole time I was watching this!

David Cook is the only one who can do that! DC is the most amazing American Idol and the most deserving too! Because all the others who won after him weren't really the best in their season.

[TheSidhappens]

@awesome2271 that's what i keep saying!

[kath85009]

ur always be my baby :)

[kampa81]

thumbs up if you have no idea what mariah was saying

[rhysskatemary]

D CUTEST AI!!! LOVE U DAVID COOK!!!

[raquelqbspecialist]

Love him!!!

[maxbenj011284]

todays idol contestant are bunch of karaoke artist mimicking current artist..

[kamndalishow]

never get tired of watching this

[reziboy100]

Mariah is busty :D

[mainedcfan2]

David Cook "you will linger oooooonnnnn"!!!! This song and his voice still blows me away. He's SO talented!

[Alewo2735]

I really miss Simon!!!

[misssfg]

@Alewo2735 MEE TOO.....

[SyndicateOfTheDamned]

He did this song justice, he's maximized the emotional power of this song. For having such a wonderful piece on my music players, I think I must thank David Cook for his musical talent, and Mariah Carey for the beautiful and perfect lyrics

[zatchbellez]

He looks like Paul McDonald

[shopoholic995]

he kicks ass! david cook FTW!!

[lethaihien12345]

This version is 10x better than the original one.

[6Horcruxes]

@lethaihien12345 um girl no. Mariah's version is a timeless classic that has stood the test of time for over 15 years now. David did great, but Mariah's version is definitely better.

[GunterJPN]

@lethaihien12345

you're missing a few zeros

[lethaihien12345]

@GunterJPN THumb up xD I didn't have enough time for that zeros ^^

[dc3fan2003]

@lethaihien12345 now dont go overboard lol. its a good rendition but NOT better than the original lol

[Kenzo0190]

@lethaihien12345 never, Mariah is The Best!!!

[babylovemeonemoretim]

@lethaihien12345 No, MC beats that guy

[rellenoz]

@lethaihien12345 100 times better!!!



[12Jeancr]

BEST MOMENT:

0:21

love u Mimi

[PhoenixFanatic]

@12Jeancr AGREED! i love that part.

[dumbokid24]

i dont really like is his voice but he is good

[chaosrachel]

Is it sad that I still listen to this on my ipod. I miss season 7 badly. Mostly for the originality, the judges and David Cook.

[lutherjw]

It's so weird watching old Idol videos and seeing the judges actually judge the contestants.

[bayy2527]

drummer is teddy campbell

[lilaogw]

I'd love to have the studio version on CD or IPOD!

[sarlectric5]

I love him so much!!! He was so good when he performed "the last goodbye" on thursday!! <3

[Wallykget1]

this is the song that got him the crown.  no doubt about it.

[crossbones650]

way better than the original

[rey11181]

Two thumbs up.... crazy good! I love it!

[Rayyy110]

I'm a man. A very handsome man. I have many girls, but i just can't stop being Gay everytime David Cook sings. Best American Idol ever. No Future AI can surpass him.

[bmwrp8]

@Rayyy110 There is something REAAALLLY wrong with your statement but whatever makes you happy hahaha



[Mezzles23]

@Rayyy110 NPNT bro.

[willtherock]

@Rayyy110 you made me LOL.

[Ta1on10]

@Rayyy110 I agree with you bro! He was a true winning part in my life time, ever since he auditioned i put him in my top 5. When he made the top 12 i knew he was gonna win, when he sung this song i knew he was gonna be champ!.... Kelly C and Carrie U may have sold more albums and be a bigger hit but a promise David Cook 's year was the best! and the more memorable!...

[tina41545]

@Rayyy110 hehehehe :)

[multipastilan]

@Rayyy110...hahahahahahha..lol­!

[triplehbk99]

@Rayyy110 i agree. i never watch AI since jasmine trias's batch, but not the whole AI 3 episode, except AI 7.

[selikhova1]

@Rayyy110 omg, you are too funny! 

[minusplus11]

great

[MichaelKeyts]

I'm don't think he is the best American idol winner ever as well as I'm pretty sure there will ever be one... Plus, it's not all about the winners, great artists have been left behind. Anyway: all I know is that he made an incredible work here and I gotta praise him for giving me moments of pure magic like this one...

[wonjunghyo]

@MisSeductive the best i know was Chris Medina

[14fishbone]

i miss simon on american idol. ='(

[sunshineonme0126]

GENIUS! THE BEST VERSION OF THE SONG EVER! BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL!!!

[EDENgetter]

damn i just love everything we does

[NooBAlMCA]

WTF? how can u even dislike this?

[puddlemini]

He made me excited to watch the show; tuned in every week to see what he would to different. Honestly, I think his season was great. It hasnt been the same since.

I only wish the judges now (esp. Steve) were the judges back then haha. They would've felt it.

[JayV86]

came across this really random, now i wish i had a gf to sing this to!

[JustRiley16]

19 people are archie fans

[everlostification]

i always get butterflies in my tummy when I see him. sighhhhh. :)

[hapeefeet]

everything is perfect.. camera projections, cuts, zoom out, great director. ofcourse, great performance....

[Chaos41571]

the greatest Idol performance i've seen, along with Jacob Lusk's "God Bless the Child"

[TheChrisha12]

woii cook is cool.. I want attend american idol too ^____^ hi all support me please..

[crazystarhunter]

did Simon call Mariah Carey' version karaoke from hell?!

[randomname349]

@crazystarhunter I think he was referring to the contestants that came before this one.

[de1978l]

OMG love it!! He is still going strong waiting on 2nd album :)

[rockstarkay11]

my favorite Idol performance...ever

[tourgeannie]

its a really great song, my boy show me this song, and i feel its really good song, and now we fall in love cause of this great song !!

[StephanieLWillis89]

better than mariah's version by far

[giakso]

@StephanieLWillis89

Well that's a pretty big statement.He was great but Mariah's version is a classic.And don't forget that if he did that good is not only because he's really talented but also because it's the song that is just brilliant.Mariah is a tremendously gifted sonwriter.Always be my baby has been written 16 years ago and still could be #1 on the charts.

[MsPanicatthedisco12]

i love David Cook<3

[asianassassin123]

18 ppl are archuleta fans

[mapleben10000]

@asianassassin123 thats just stupid, if u like cook, u will be bound to like archuleta too

[lovepuppy3451]

Why is there even a dislike button on this video?

[quinnly23]

go to the address bar, and type in 'win' between the 'you' and 'tube', and press enter.
