my favorite David Cook song of all! This song was recorded in one take for the album! Absolutely beautiful!!

[spyhopper29]

Even over a year later, I still love watching this performance. I was so honored to see it live. I am so proud of the fans for giving him the respect he deserved by staying quiet during the verses. This had to be difficult and painful for him and I am thankful that he chose to share it with us.

[Chief58fan]

You can hear a slight waver in his voice and David is so brave & committed to his music & fans to bring us the gift of this song that is so artistic, but tormenting, it brings me to tears everytime I hear him sing it, just to think of the pain he must be feeling. God bless you David & your family. I love you for what you do. Thank you so much for posting.

Thanks for sharing your video! I just love him!

[Love36214]

This was such a heartbreaking and beautiful performance which had to have been so difficult for him. I would be a real fan for just the music alone but his courage, altruism, charm, loyalty, love of family and work ethic have won me over BIG TIME. I am a fan for life. No question. Of course, the view is a huge bonus.
