This was the greatest year of American Idol. And this video oh my gosh perfect song, perfect vocals, perfect performance, perfect emptions, perfect guy :) oh David how you make me melt <3

[Fairskyright]

David Cook, you are simply the best!  Feel your pain with your brother Adam and you break my heart! Hits home for me as well with my sister (been diagnosed with a brain aneurysm in Nov 2009). Love your voice David Cook!!!

[twidc2012]

i absolutely LOVE david cook. he's such a brilliant musician, and he seems like a truly genuine individual. it's too bad so many people stopped paying attention to him after the idol buzz died down.i am soooo looking forward to that new album.

[ilovekelly75]

David Cook is beautiful in every way.

[1221aw1221]

[DJK83]

Super HD? It's not even regular HD...

[jadh86]

This performance topped EW's Idol 30 All-Time Best Performances list! Big check on that! T'was indeed a very sincere perf!

[DavidCookIsAllThat]

Wow, this just made me cry. Thanks for the very high quality, it's fantastic. David Cook will always be my favorite American Idol of all time. What a talent.

[nickelshotnight]

You weren't kidding with the super HD

[meloninhk]

i've figured something out, that during the american idol performances. the lyrics of the song are behind the audiences.

[ashieboy1995]

is there a version where he does the full song?

[NyCArole426]

He;s is comin back w thunder!!! Real soon!

[j8Starbuck]

my most favorite performance of David Cook in AI

[IrisSabrosa2011]

He's deff one of the best singers that were discovered by American Idols, without doubt! David Cook, and Adam Lambert. :)

[AngelAtTwilight]

I miss David Cook. He's my favorite.

[musiclivesalways]

@judyavril123 David has been working on his second CD which is suppose to come out between March and May. After his first CD he basically toured all of 2009. In between all that he has been active wth numerous charities especially Race for Hope. But hopefully, we will have a new David CD soon! :)

[cyclemom]

he was the best AI winner ever. I hear this song on the radio by the original artists and feel mad that it's not his version. He trumped the original on this one for sure.

[qg6ff]

Are those lyrics on the screen in the audience there?... what the heck

[judyavril123]

where did he dissapear to?

[dinahcat]

Still makes me teary. Just a great song sung perfectly. Thank you/

[pweller5]

All this time later I STILL get choked up listening to David Cook singing this! Perfection!

[rrprieto]

I still get chills over this performance. Hauntingly beautiful. Video and sound quality perfection

[Robert19850]

This might be the best performance ever from this show. Certainly in the top five.

[juniemarie58]

Still. So. Good.

What an incredible voice!

[tessaje]

This is my most favorite Cook performance on Idol. Made me vote hard for him that night.

[cougar40n]

Perfect performance of the perfect song at the perfect moment. For me, like watching an Olympic athlete score a perfect performance when it really counted. Unforgettable.

[TransmediaAgent]

Thank you Michael Slezak (NY Times) for linking to this video. Beautiful !!

[luvkiekie]

I'm forever a Cookie fan.

[luvkiekie]

His voice is spectacular and he is an amazing person. Love this song, so glad he did a new song. He puts so much emotion into every song he sings and it always shows.

[MrJuanArg]

David Cook the best idol!!.. and im not american jeje!!.. but this man are an awesome singer!!..

[biancacookhook]

[rpattzluver1234]

[overcastgirl19]

[Undergroundcity50]

[biancacookhook]

David Cook rocks...He is purely talented..Incomparable artist..The best American Idol ever...

[MrJuanArg]

totally agree!!.. he is the best idol ever!!..

[tomrudd25]

I love David Cook...and I love how much emotion he shows in this song, as well as all his other performances. He's awesome. I hope I can personally thank him one day.

[ealo11]

David Cook is well on his way to becoming a superstar now. This performance will likely go down in history as one of the most talked about, amazing, and controversial on AI ever and helped launch his career along with Hello and Billie Jean.

[TheWorstComputerEver]

season 8 was so bland compared to the legendary season 7, season 7 = beats AI season ever,

[morningdreams]

This was a flawless performance. Everything about it from the vocals to the emotional connection was perfect.

[rupgal]

im out of words with this man*

hes simply the best AI ever.

i admire you cook

[olivandr]

One word,

INSPIRATION

[uralwaysbemybaby]

he inspires me a lot...He is BEYOND AMAZING!!makes me cry evrytime...we ( filipinos)are going to see him real soon this coming MAY 16 at THE MALL OF ASIA open grounds..

[noraahmad87]

He will only be going to the phillipines? Will he be visiting Singapore? I've been adoring since his day 1 audition. I hope to meet him... sob sob.. recently, archuletta came and i even win a meet and greet session and photo taking with him. But it's meaningless. Coz i don't really like him.. I like cook..

[tomrudd25]

David Cook is such an inspiration-he's shown that we can all achieve our dreams if we really put our minds to it. I mean, he didn't even plan on auditioning, but he was thrown into it, took advantage of what life gave him, and his life has been changed forever. He's taught me, and countless others I'm sure, to do the same.

[olymania]

man, u said it!

[CHE1994]

I saw this live... He was excellent and extremely deserving of the American Idle title... I was almost brought to tears when I saw this...

[noraahmad87]

*idol :)

[luvindcinco]

I still get chills everytime I see this...

[FAGOT31]

that´s one of the most beautiful songs I´ve heard, I like collective soul, but this man does it better..

[Shereeda2202]

ooo man this was and still is MAGNIFICENT!!

[missbean90]

Please don't ever delete this video --- it is perfect.

[rkmugen]

I take it as just a hint of [greater] things to come from the latest American Idol.

[youngfryofTREACHERY]

Just saw him in concert @ the american idol on tour... SO solid. so fantastic. a passionate, Brilliant artist. fucking brilliant. he Consistently gives me the chills.

[JamesPadfoot]

Oh David.

*shakes head, tears in eyes*

On Ed Roland:

DC: Aww, man, I am a big fan. Obviously, I did "The World I Know" on the show. He always seems to write just really solid, hooky music. I got more nervous about meeting guys like him than I did anybody else through the show and stuff.

WORD NERD 2008

[sweetgirl545]

seriously, I can see it on full screen perfectly... I miss him on AI so much...

[sweetgirl545]
