Rest in Peace Adam Cook - Permanent

[LaceyNoelleDickerson]

"I know he's living in hell every single day. So I ask oh god is there some way for me take his place." I know where these words come from. I lost my dad due to bladder cancer, and I remember praying it could be me instead of him so he could stay and watch and protect my siblings and mother and provide for them. I remember listening to this song on repeat for hours upon hours just begging him to take me, and not my father. This song was like a crutch for me, and continues to be one even to this

[AlexieMarie21]

Of course its heartbreaking when someone so close passes away, but he was suffering. Sadly he lost his battle, but hes not suffering anymore and is finally at peace.

Rest In Paradise Adam

[hmgreendayluvr]

[amberorton1]

Lets have a moment of silence for adam cook, He is in heaven now, No more pain, He wants his family to dry their eyes and not cry because he is home he is in a better place enjoying the company of the angels and we must not cry for the cook family either

[countursteps]

Legit tear. Every cancer patient is a warrior. May Adam rest in paradise with the rest of the memorable loved ones.

[MrNeobeo]

Does he still make music? whats he been doing?

[mainedcfan1]

@MrNeobeo If you mean David Cook, yes, he still makes music. His first post-Idol CD went Platinum with 2 platinum singles and a gold one. It's just called David Cook - you should check it out; it's amazing! He has a new single of his new album coming out April 19th and the album itself should be out in May. His cover of "Don't You Forget About Me" is the elimination song on Amer. Idol right now (gets played when the eliminated contestant's "journey" video is played. The song's on ITunes. :)

[coverme77]

This song is freaking amazing..

[TheGabytea]

RIP from Lithuania

[Branigan4ever]

David has such a beautiful voice and he's a beautiful person too, inside and out.

[AuntSissyBeth]

This song went to my heart, it reminds me of my dad that passed away June 29 2009... R.I.P.

[TheMeggie81]

your in my thoughts and I will be thinking of you each and every day. I send my love and hugs as well. try listening to Jeremy Camp's song there will be a day. Its a great inspiration and it will strengthen your heart.:)

[TheMeggie81]

I am sorry to hear of your loss. I will be praying for you David. May god truly bless you and give you peace again. Jesus loves you.

[He805]

I am so sorry for your loss! Rest in peace,Adam!

[jonasbrotherslover45]

I hope your resting in peace Adam. My prayers are with his family

[conversegirl4life107]

what did it say on David Cook's hand at 1:15-1:18??

[TheWwerocks99]

@conversegirl4life107 Give back

[conversegirl4life107]

@TheWwerocks99 thankks

but thats soo sadd :''(

[TheWwerocks99]

@conversegirl4life107 yeh i knw i almost cried

[conversegirl4life107]

@TheWwerocks99 OMG me too. This is soooo sad! :''(

[Mustangof08]

RIP Adam Cook

Your in a better place now. :)

No more suffering.

[KellyyxMabbitt]

that's Andrew (his younger brother) who he was hugging though and the guy in the audience, that's Andrew Cook.

[TwilightSagaZone]

it doesn't matter that its not adam at all. its about the song and its meaning and i think you got that across just fine.

Very beautiful Tribute.

[DavidCook125]

my prayers are to adam and the cook family. RIP.

[survivrs]

Really wonderful, actually brillient idea by horsegerbil to leave the black screen. It makes you think only about the words and what they mean, even though it's easy to do with this song no matter what, I appreciate his idea. David Cook is an awesome artist and yet he can still come down to earth so quickly with the rest of us. I see a potential "brother" relationship between David and "Archie" because of how close the show brought them. Watching them interact looks so sincere. I love it.

[TheJokersAdvocate96]

Nice video...the guy at the end is not adam though

[survivrs]

If you mean the very end where there is confetti in the air, it most certainly is Adam and his wife. Search through the David Cook videos and you will see different views of Adam depending on whether or not he is going through chemo at the time. Right now he looks the best he has throughout the ordeal.

[TheJokersAdvocate96]

eh my knew him i saw him once so

[blakelewiscrazy]

R.I.P. Adam. My heart is with David and his family.

[beastlyvideos25]

R.I.P Adam Cook

[beastlyvideos25]

my thoughts and prayers go to david cook and his families

[saskia20]

RIP Adam...

[detective146]

R.I.P. andrew cook you will be missed dearly- but not really missed cuz one day we will be there with you =(

[TanisterATL]

*Adam Cook

Andrew is David's younger brother. He's still alive.

[detective146]

oh yeah ..ok thx

[Engmeriland]

its a shame how good people get desises and die from it even thogh they didnt do anything i wounder if there is a god and he kills us because we did soemthing good to go the hevan or its just natural

Rip adam cook

[NorfolkDuck89]

mate i don't really understand whether god is there either but im sure that if he's the "almighty being" he will save all the good people and bring them to heaven, i hope adam is there..

R.I.P Adam

[hmeschoolwiz]

Adam is the one who got david to audition right?

[TheSoli20]

no he was not, he was the oldest brother

[Icepyr0]

yes Adam got David the audition.

and died less than a year after that

[TanisterATL]

No, Andrew got David the audition. Andrew is the one shown at the end of the video (in the white and blue). Andrew is David's younger brother.

Adam is David's older brother. He did not get David the audition, but he fully supported him and pushed him to continue on.

[musicismypasttime]

love the song and i love david and R.I.P ADAM YOU WILL BE MISSED!!!!!! :(

ONLY IF YOU HAD ANOTHER CHANCE .....

[KiraKuchiki1]

My god! i just knew this terrible new, rest in peace Adam. All my blessing for the family!

[zignchris]

May His peace that surpassess all understanding surround and comfort you and your loved ones. God bless David Cook and family.

[missgontier23]

[InezMariamad]

Im sorry David Cook. Its all fate. You have to accept it. God loves him more than you do. Rest in Peace, Adam cook)):

[alvine18]

[yellowdellow313]

[tj8865]

Adam Cook : Rest In Peace

[bluefang09]

poor david... he went on american idol for his bother..... this song is so amazing and powerfull adam look down on your brother and help him when he needs it... may you rest in peace!!

[abpfing04]

yeah, why is everybody putting his brother andrew as the guy who died? it was adam who died.

[horsegerbil]

abpfing04: Because not everyone is a huge fan of David Cook, and we don't know everything about his personal life. I'm actually a much bigger fan of David Archuleta, but I still enjoy Cook's music and respect him. I didn't realize the mistake at the time, and I was a bit...out of it from the initial shock of the news.

(I apologize if any of this came off as snappy or rude. I'm just trying to explain within the character limit. lol. It had to get straight to the point.)

[lewizlmfao]

yh y doo peeps do dat. i only realized dat 2

[Angelsbaby42]

yea he has a younger brother, andrew or andy :-)

[Angelsbaby42]

how old is Andy is he younger than David ?

[TheComedyKing]

no hes older, and his name is Adam

[DRCismeant4me]

andrew cook is 22 ( probably 23 by now) so yes he is younger.

[softballdancer21]

give back

[dariotm15]

david cook

fight and made be a super star for adam cook...

[sportsgal1111]

wow that was such a powerful video now I feel like crap cuz I think I have it bad cuz my bff is moving away soon :(

[pirategrl03]

Victoria, this has got to be the best video you've ever made.

The black screen was just...incredibly powerful in a strange way.

I was in tears.... what made it worse was that I could relate to the song. :(

The Cook family shall be in my prayers.

[ilovejtimberlake]

aw. thats so sad. R.I.P. adam

[samGenius4]

beautiful song..wish dey wud release it....so sad

condolences to david and all his family..losing sum1 2 cancer is terrible..i knw

[sourpatchkid249]

it is released. on his cd.

R.I.P Adam Cook

always in my prayers

[crystalrose1714]

He did release this song. It is on his self titled cd. Track #11

[dreamhorse54]

what did his hand say?

[horsegerbil]

"give back"

That was his performance from the night before Idol Gives Back.

[killerwhale8000]

why did you post pictures of david archuleta at the beginning?

[horsegerbil]

killerwhale8000: That's just the intro I put on all of my videos. It has Archie in it. Nothing to do with the actual video.

[meggards]

I also just want to clear up that the brother in this video isn't the brother that died. I would hate for people to think that, so I just wanted to clear that up. Great video though, and great song. It's a sad day.

[TSKACraig]

Adam I will miss you dearly. You were a great friend and a great man. You touch more people that you ever knew. You were the definite of a greeat person. You will missed. Good willing I will see you again someday, Brother. Until then may God watch over you! Love, Moe

[iluvcloud26]

shoot! so sad. T~T

[sraymond29]

FYI. David was flying to DC for the Race for Hope, not to be with Adam. Just wanted to set the record straight. Thank you for the video anyway.

[horsegerbil]

Oh. The website I read was wrong then. Thanks for letting me know.
