David Cook - Song #1 from Finale episode of American Idol 7!

[MusicfaninMO]

Oh my god this is awful. I can't listen. sorry only made it to :40 seconds.

[GabeU2Fan]

disgrace to the song

[BaseballPie]

He actually sang pretty well for not being Bono, but the song still sucks because The Edge isn't playing guitar.

[c3s8rpinto]

DAVID ARCHULETA IS THE BEST,

[cleide97]

He's amazing! Though it's a shame he didn't find yet what he's looking for...

[TyraRay]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE THIS SONG

AND HE SOUNDS SOO GOOD DOING IT

:)

I NEVER like when people cover u2 songs, but i like this

[Becoming0ne]

I think when you've got two talented vocalists to choose between, people are going to vote for the person they think will have the best opportunity to make a career of it. I think people chose Cook because he was older and eloquent, when Archie was young and shy. So I don't think the final vote was about who is the most talented singer. I'm glad they're both getting off to a great start in their individual careers and I guess to be honest I am glad that Archie is proving the naysayers wrong.

[miss07lwaa]

love u love u love u daviid ur my idooolll 4 ever

[craers]

@miss07lwaa i'd say the same thing cept i'd put an archuleta behind it

[kath8509]

Here's MY IDOL! I Already found what I'm looking for...

[reinharv]

I spotted a star when he sang this song. He's fatastic!

[koolcuttyanoop152]

whoa this is good especially the beginning

[lollingbowling]

well i will say they are both great, i cant decide.....

[biancacookhook]

David Cook is so much better than the other.He has the versatility,pure talent,amazing voice,audience-interaction....­.He can perform with his all-out talent...Never make excuses and accept the reality that America chose the right man....

[3e6567pw]

wow he lost alot of weight over the season

[idialistic]

I cant believe people chose this guy over Archuleta!

i mean archuleta is much deaper , moving and sweet.

His simple innocence is whats missing so much in many of todays singers.

[miss07lwaa]

keep your opinoin 4 you'r self

any ways bouth of them amazing but without thinking david cook is the beeeeessssstttt

[PenguinJr1994]

maybe they knew dc would win because he's better

[bluetearclown8]

I think Archuleta is a better vocalists, I would have loved for him to win, because I feel he needed it more, but Cook is in a different league. He is older and more experienced. He can out perform. This performance is masterful, I couldn't remember who first sang it. Kudos to Cook

[RengokuBA]

Get over the fact that he was better than Archuleta, no one rigged it.

if it's anyone's fault that Archuleta didn't win, it's YOURS, the ARCHULETA FANS.

[ij1999tj]

Obviously, American Idol manipulate the results...Watch the judges comments, you will discern that they knew David Cook will win...and there is something fishy about it....Watch the final 2 again...and OBSERVE!

[gee1234567890]

get a life america obviously loves dc better than archuleta. they knew he would win because he was so much better

[davidcooksweety]

lol the results werent manipulated at all, cook won cuz hes got the voice, pure talent, personaltiy, versatality, and of course, his fans that got him to where he is! and no one knew who was gonna win- i mean how are they suppose to know who wins ahead of time? i think it was a surprise for all of us, including the judges. obviously, some of you archie fans still havent gotten over the fact that cook won and archie came in runner up, well they both got this far didnt they?

[davidcooksweety]

i think they are both winners! and i think some archie fans that still come on here dissing cook need to stop dwelling on it cuz where is that gonna get u? i highly doubt it will get u anywhere. actually it wont get u anywhere. instead of coming here dissing cook , go support archie, like go support his album or w/e, cuz the only thing ur doing by coming here and dissing cook is making archie look bad. seriously, your not helping urselves or archie by doing this. get over it already.

[Slagnr]

It's not all about winning. The only thing that matters is if they stay in our hearts, if they touch us with their voices, and they both sure did.

[JoviDaughtryfan]

The best in show! LOL

He has a strong voice which is why he won.

[devfam519]

are you kidding me? i voted for him and so did lots of other people! i cant believe that people voted for archuleta. he is terrible. too breathy and nasaly...and all his songs are slow. DC can sing way better than archuleta ever will. DC is the total package.

[gee1234567890]

i liked cook better but archuleta isnt that bad

[sydalee9433]

for not being bono he executed the song quite well. still, he isn't bono.

[davidcooksweety]

@sydalee9433 i dont think he was TRYIN to be bono: dc was just being himself! i dont think it matters who sings it, i think dc did a good job on this song. go dc!

[tuliosux]

i have NO idea how people voted him over archuletta...its insane!

[friendlee2007]

No one voted for him just that FOX rigged it so he would win. Maximize profit.

[hsmfan113]

i like david cook and all but he really needs to stop wearing eyeliner....its for GIRLsssssssssssss only not guys....

[Kakumala]

No it's not!!!!

[S0ccerPr097]

:'( David archuleta! he should have won

[joeleeu2]

bono shits better things

[blazerjames]

LETS COOK SOME DISHESSSSS

[milo771]

Winning by 12 million votes is no fluke....Thats a landslide victory....David Cook is the better performer ,the whole package!!!

[oliverthepogi2004]

well yeah 12 million is a big number but do you know the ratio of the votes? 56% DC vs 44% DA. so still it was close... they are both good to be honest... let us not just put DA down... he deserve better....

[nimblechic07]

agreed...both are good.. man, they are so gonna get rich...

[chaddy91]

TOTALLY AGREE!!!!!

[jbkep16]

david archuletta is nothing.. he has a decent voice.. his dads insane.. all he has is boyish looks which will fade and then what?? yeah so happy cook won.. he may actually do something with the music instead of a kid who just wants girls out of it.. cook is in it for the love of music

[d1lass]

They're BOTH in it for the love of music!

Geez, no need to bring Archuleta down...You should just be glad that your favorite won...

Congrats, Cook!

[havfruen72]

Honey, I don't think David A wants girls out of this.....

Either way, congratulations to both of them, they'll both do well, as will Syesha and Carly, I think.

[anjo42790]

fuck u bitch

[08DCook]

I cried during his performences b/c i was nervous and he was to, i feel wat he feels! i prqay fro him! i vot nonstop last noght! lets hope it helps him! I LOVE HIM!

[rohm274]

U2 IS AMAZING.

[jenniferedwards5]

i'm excited for the show tonight!

best of luck to cook ♥

[aaroncaras]

theres an issue that the producers are gonna make david cook win... thats why the judges are on archuleta last night.. soo today it will be a shocking thing!

[SammyWammy100]

those judges were way off last night. David cook did just as good as archuleta and they said it was a knock out? they better clean out their ears before i do it for them. I <3 David cook

[idowantpie]

2007?

[elleinad0790]

when i heard him say it last ni1ght i was like whoa? 2007 since when? its 2008

[djrezzed]

with u there buddy..i was like what?..lol..

[djrezzed]

2007...WTF!!...ITS 2008..LMAO..

[stlukg]

lol, he came right infront of the man with the golden ears and did his thing, let david cook have it man, david archuletta is sooo talented at 17 put 5 more years on this boy and he will totally tramp him.

[Satur9girl]

No one has the energy of Bono...

[rohm274]

You said it!

[djrezzed]

why did Randy say 2007???

[keekeemyfirstcat]

Possible he is human, like the rest of us.

[Segno19]

Simon always saying DC is just making the most out of his songs. I think no one could do the best out of all DC's songs except him.. Common simon.. ^_^

[amzwieback]

phenomenal

[patrickowenong]

i hope he'll win though i can hardly stand his air of arrogance towards the comments. Perhaps he should just keep it to himself and not showing the aptitute of being unpleased with the-not-so-fair-comments

[havfruen72]

I know what you mean, but I don't think it actually IS arrogance - I mean, they're all really nervous up there and I think David really only cares about Simon's comments, so until Simon has given his verdict David doesn't relax. Know what I mean?

But then, who knows.

[frankcashd717]

Excellent

[dylan7271]

If everyone listened to what Simon said last night, then David A will win, BUT i hope and pray that American remembers that David Cook has BROUGHT THE FREAKIN HOUSE DOWN ALL YEAR!!

[Segno19]

Right! Definitely.. anyway i also like DA but in

clean & pro performance DC is the TOP. I wish both of them successful career after the idol..

[an2hone]

rockstar vs teeny bopper. Ill take this rockstar anyday.

[capwellian]

This is one of the sexiest things I've ever seen in my life.

He KILLED this night. No matter WHAT Simon said.

[ulabo]

Buuaaa he sucked!

[reusername]

watch "american idol prank" ant dec funny video

[2sdaysonthefon2me]

After tonight only one of them will have the title of "American Idol", but neither will be going home a "loser"! These are 2 of the most talented young men I've seen and heard in a very long time! They are both going to have phenominal careers!

[franj1]

i think his voice wasn't as powerful as it has been. maybe he was a bit ill or something

[XsupermanFBI]

[dasoupsta]

DA was better in the final...DC was more consistent and had a lot more memorable performances..it remains to be seen what mattered more..the knockout blow..or the fighter who never quit n delivered at every show..personally i vote DC for AI as he is more versatile and easily more talented than DA!

[DCook29]

i agree with you 100%!!

[lemor08]

He'll sure win the title!! Go David C.

[keekeemyfirstcat]

David Cook is such a great guy. I just love him. Voice, performer, super guy! Vote, vote, vote!!!!

[oddlyreasonable]

Dont look at Dial Idol numbers and feel safe guys. holy hell we need sore thumbs everywhere. them kids are relentless.

[khaccu]

I'm conflicted. I want much success for Cook so I don't know if having the Idol title is what's best for his career.

Regardless, I love Cook.

[keekeemyfirstcat]

Vote for the man!

[oddlyreasonable]

All is done but not said right? The votings over?

I missed AMerican Idol tonight because I was watching Narnia in the cinema. The movie was good but I was expecting it to be shorter. You are now my hero! Thank god for youtube!
