  • so good

  • i love it!!!

  • Pitchy, pitchy & pitchy...he's just OK!!! Sorry guys...just my opinion...I'm not floored at all:(. David A. was better...he just chose not to hide behind his instruments. He could play a mean piano!

  • I luve this song I just wish that he did a studio version of it so that we could hear it without the sound of the audience...... LUVE IT

  • i forgot about this song he was soo good loved every min of watching this vidoe that i watched it agian david cook someone from england loves you

  • the best AI ..ever.......so a perfect package as an entertainer.......wow...stunni­n

  • deltalead89: You said "So even tho cook lost, he still has much potential and this performance shows it. ...: Sorry, but David Cook won American Idol by 12 million votes over Archuleta. It was a landslide.

  • they are both good

  • @reinharv due to power texting & AI's incredible unfair and bogus voting system.

  • @ilovedrums71 I think it's fair to say that tons of tweens, etc., were texting & power voting for David A. also so it works both ways. Cook still would have won no matter what.

  • @ilovedrums71

    DC's fan base are the women in the idol audience. DA's fan base during the show were mostly tweens. DC had SEX appeal while DA had CUTE appeal. SEXY beats CUTE. DC changed every song he sang so it suited him. Karoake is not his middle name.

    DA might have a better voice (but that is very subjective) but DC is the better performer. DA might get to DC's level is he goes out and lives life away from his parents to get some perspective on life. DA's biggest handicap was parenting.

  • Respect

  • Oh gosh he looks so hot here xp

  • Re "Dream Big" was #1 on iTunes the next day. He had 4 songs ranked 1,2,3,4. Total sales for all Cook's A.I. songs over 1.2 MILLION on iTunes. Platinum ALBUM in less than 3 months. Album 'David Cook' is best selling album by a new artist this chart year by a significant margin with Lady Gaga 'The Fame' is #2, and she trails Cook by 415K units sold . It is also the 7th best-selling album of the chart year overall, and is one of only 8 albums to sell 1 million+ units chart year-to-date.

  • I love reading your post.

    It made my day. :)

    Go Cook!

  • if that is all true what you say, that is AMAZING. David cook owns everything!

  • Well I don't make up anything. Always counter negative comments (not yours) with the facts. Shuts up the haters fast. I love David Cook--everything about him. He broke the A.I. mold. He is the standard now.

  • wow then that truly is awesome! Good thinking on using facts to counter negativity, i think i'll try it out sometimes for other vids. thanks, and go David Cook, get another album out there for us to buy. =D

  • he is a good rock singer, but archuleta is better at singing.. get the point, how ever the both sing well

  • wow! both Davids are amazing!

  • ya know, he has a good voice no doubt but archuleta has a better singing voice. Cook could definitely make an awesome rock or soft rock band, kinda the way daughtry did. Chris Daughtry didnt win, but he had one hell of a successful rock band and lives a great life now. So even tho cook lost, he still has much potential and this performance shows it.

  • I like this... :) Actually for me, 2nd round should be go to Cook. :) but i agree with judges I liked Archuletas 1st and 3rd song. :) Theyre both recording artist now anyway, it doesnt matter

  • no band wrote it a girl wrote. someone wrote one for david archueleta that he sang aswell

  • He is simply amazing!!!  Can't wait to see what the future holds for this man.

  • nichollez, actually, i dont think it sounded terrible at all, his range was good and he rocked it man, don't compare him to jobros/hannah montana, coz its very different. peace man.

  • wats the band who made this song????

  • listen the right guy won by far the best singer pure quality sorry look at all the risks he took a class act future lookin good

  • david cook rox and david archaleta will still be big two so to me david should have one

  • I Agree with Simon. I like Cook. He's a great guy, very poised and comfortable on stage. It's not his fault that he won--it's America's fault. Archie was the clear winner-even Cook knows it. Shame on America for this.

  • "Whoa, You were singing your face off there boy!"

  • Damn straight: Archie shouldve won, Simon said he won all three rounds, even though he corrected it next time (prob made to).

    I love simon, he was biased towards Archie the whole time cuz he could see his potential. But that's prob cuz it's his company that records the winner's album...I think...so he would naturally want the best.

  • i absolutely love him singing this songgg

  • no thats what you should do. if you dont like him then DONT WATCH THE FUCKIN VIDEO!!! Why watch it just to leave nasty comments like that? you dont see DC fans doing that to archie...

  • Sorry but i disagree there is people who say mean things about archie and cook so lets leave it there OK. I do like cook don't get me wrong but he can seem a bit cocky at times.Actually forget what I said. Just leave it there! Truce Oh by the way do you like archie or not?

  • Like simon says, yes cook IS arrogant, cocky and has a huge ego to match his inflated forehead, BUT he also has a rocking (pun intended) voice as well, that sometimes is better than Archie's. Cock was so pissed and sulky when Simon knocked him down a few notches after one of his first performances.

  • soccer7freak: "like simon says yes cook is arrogant, cocky, and has a huge ego to match his iflatted head forehead, but he also has a rocking (pun intended) voice as well, that is sometimes better than archies"

    so by saying "he has a rocking (pun intended) voice as well THAT IS SOMETIMES BETTER THAN ARCHIES" as u put it, it seems to me like ur just saying these things cuz u are obviously upset that cook won the ai season 7 (which he deserved ) and-

  • maybe u dont like cook, but thats no reason or excuse to come on cooks youtube and to diss him like that! ur entited to ur opinon, but it is disrespectful t o diss him and it is rude and immature too! and he is not arrogant either, hes a nice humble guy!

  • well i realy dont like archie but if DC wasnt on the show i probly would have voted for him or micheal johns

  • iloveeedavidfuckingcook!!

    <3456789

    i lovee this song

    hes amazing

    way better then davidachuleta

    helll yeahhh way better

    <321

  • Honestly the whole thing was really close...both David Cook and David Archuleta were amazing. But in the end I was glad that David C won! GO DC!! :D

  • He is wicked, all u haters are just bitter archuleta fans! fuck off and view his videos then!!!!!!!

  • this guy cooked up shit every single week, but still won? fishy

  • he could kick ur ass

  • i lovee david cook!!!

    who's the original artist of this songg?

  • There really is no original artist. This was one of the American Idol song writing contest enries, so I guess the orignal artist would be the song writer. I'm not sure who the writer is though. I'm sorry. I really do love this song, though. I kinda wish it won, DC performed it amazingly.

  • ohh thanks :D

  • David cook rocks!Y are you listening to this if yuo want the oter david to have won!

  • Well it is a singing competition but you still need stage prescence, you cant be a singer without it. Dont worry Archie has a lot of time.... he will be good.

  • can definitely be in a summer superhero movie soundtrack. love it!

  • archuleta has an amazing voice but no stage precence. how often do you hear simion say its more then just singing... cook was ready to be a star. archuleta is young and will make out just fine. his dad my b eat him a little but he will be ok

  • DAVIS COOK...UR DA BOM!

  • David Cook is Good and he looks like a star quality but archuleta didn't realli look like a star though as well he seems to be fake!!! But this american idol season didn't realli give me a wow factor like carrie, kelly, fantasia, daughtry i want to see a realli good one whose voice is unique for next year's american idol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i loved him all season, i love that he won!

  • best idol winner.

  • Cook only won cos the producers rigged archuleta last note on the play back dey din't want archuleta to win cos of his dad! Cook SUCKS!!!!!!!

  • archuleta is sissy..david rocks..y should a sissy boy win...

  • i'd love to make sweet rape to him!! hahaha!!

  • really good lyrics

  • i hope he puts this on his album this song is so tight

  • DAVID COOK WINS IT ALL!

  • this was such a good song......I could hear this all the time.....never get tired of it.

  • oma i love this song when cook redos it

  • MariahSlaysMadge is a fucking retard!

  • I'm so happy he won!! He's so amazing! It was a really close battle, but in the end, the super awesome sexy David won! ;) lol!

  • lol YA!

  • I wanted Archie to win but this is a REALLY GOOD VERSION of this song..luv it!

  • David Cook is amazing and deserved to win. i love him. hes so freakin sexy. And he's very original. i hope he has a successful career.

  • Wow you guys really take this seriously :D

  • david cook sucks the big one. yes, he does.

  • he doesnt suck the big one he's allright he's pretty good.

    and hello Mariah Slays Madge??? I think you meant Mariah obliterated Madge!

  • shut up lahh, he rocks ok?

  • You are the rightful winner, DC. you have aura of music that's very natural. God bless you, man. Have a great life!

  • COOK SUCKS!

  • Come on people! No one originally sings this song! This is the song wrote for him to sing as his winner's single. And to chrisjohn: paula says "to take a song we don't know and make us fall in love with it."

  • Yah me too... it also stuck in my head

    since the first time i heard David cook

    sang his version of this song titled

    "Dream Big" by: Emily Shackelton

    and one more thing, it almost expload

    my heart out and crazily got carried away,

    this song is really inpiring, good job

    like what Paula Said "You made us love

    the song that we havent been heard for so long" GB ^^

  • whose that person that the camera keeps showing..they are sitting in the audience..all i know is that it's a guy..lol

  • From wat I read it was written by Emily Shackelton. You can hear it here watch?v=h2Wurm6Il2U

  • ya, i decided to watch american idol for the first time last night and heard this song...good god i need to find the original too, american idol has good marks now.

    who sings the original of this song, could any1 tell me that?

  • HE WON!!! THATS SO AWSOME! Please someone tell me who did this song it's been stuck in my head all day.

  • It is an original song written for him to be his winning single like "A Moment Like This" and "Inside Your Heaven."

  • Do you know a link where I could get it?

  • My bad it was an original song but not his winning single. It should have been though. You can get it on iTunes. I have the live version mp3. I was rooting for Archuleta until I saw this episode. Yes, Archie has the stronger voice but not the better voice. And Archie doesn't have the performance capabilities of David Cook. Plus, Archie just did ballads. This night made me into a Cook fan even if he messes up on the chorus at 1:38 and sings have faith twice instead of dream big and have faith.

  • HE WINS!

  • OMG he won im so excited and happy for him

  • Even if David Cook doesn't win this thing, he will be able to get a record deal and be better than David Archy!

  • Winner winner chicken dinner

  • who sings this songggg???

  • It is an original song written for him in the tradition of the winning single.

  • after reading all these comments, i know im not the only one who thinks that if archie wins that ppl are only voting for the cutest (even though in my eyes that is david cook)

  • awesome hair! lol

  • I LOVE DAVID COOK! <333 I hope he wins American Idol! I saw the polls last night, and apparently, he won American Idol by a landslide. So.. if David Archuleta wins.. you'll know that American Idol is rigged. I think it is already, but it's still good. But.. awesome job David! You so beat David Archuleta.. you can sing everything.. he can sing one song.. awesome job, good luck! =]

  • Archie here!

    DC did a GREAT job with this song, it was my favorite from him! it was really good! hope you don't mind i comment in here

  • oh yeah, isaac90638. doesn't american idol only show in... america?

    lol

    even if cook doesnt win, will he still be able to record that song since little david did a different song?

    i loved how cook did this song.

    A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!

  • not just america, it shows in some of the other countries too. i know that becuz i don't live in america but i can watch it on star world, which is an international channel. and the 2 hr finale was live on that channel too

  • does anyone know who sings this song?

  • Emily Shacklefort

  • if david archuleta wins then ppl just vote for who they think is the cutest or w/e this guy is so much better than archuleta...the other david is so immature...he cryed at the end of every song he did...y was he even crying about...ppl these days..GO DAVID COOK!

  • FUCK YOU SIMON!

    this boy is the real thing! he is the next american idol. IF d.a wins, then this whole show is dope cuz its turning into a popularity contest.

  • this is amazingg.

  • once again simon nailed it.

  • Ohh okay!:() Sorry misunderstood you! Lol

  • HE'S SO GONNA WIN!!!! GOOOO DAVID COOK

  • Nope but im not trying to be a singer!

  • sorry, my comment wasnt for u.

    :)

  • Well you chould probably try to have ur own opinion in life. Only cause Simon didnt like it doesnt mean that its not good. You should be death to wright a comment like that cause he rocked. How do you know its easy, have u done samething like that in u life?

  • Thank you! Im really hoping that David Cook wins but there both okay! But there something about Davad.A- Hes just weird

  • Hi, Im English so i dont get to watch the show for a few days yet, Has the winner been anounced? Will you find out tonight?! Some one please tell me?

  • i LOVE david cook so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Well, glad to see you got that out of your system. I'll brace myself for your reaction when he wins.

  • DAVID COOOK FTW!!!!!!

    who cares about the articles about ARCHULETA!!

    we belive in dial idol...more than the judges...who apparently they want archuleta to win...most specially cowell!

  • dood simon cowel wants cook to win

  • dream big by emily shackleton

  • who is like the artist of this song ? like who really sings it?

  • Dude, what are you hearing? I'm an Archuleta fan, but I absolutely loved this performance! I thought (like Randy said) that he sung his heart out on this song, and he did really well with it.

  • This performance was amazing! I love him and hope he wins tonight!!!!!! Please let him win!!!!!!

  • david cook is fuckin rad he shuld win screw archuletta ;)

    i &hearts; u david COOK !!

  • david cook all the way thats all i have to say im speachless.

  • beautiful... i finally found the lyrics and the original songwriter... she is an amazing writer!

  • David Cook FTW.

  • terrible song, buhbye

  • i love this song. whoever wrote this (sorry i forget) should be a professional songwriter.

  • it's by emily shackelton

  • i'am a HUGE fan of David Cook!!! DAVID COOK ALL THE WAY!!!

  • omg i love david cook.

    i voted for him 408 times last night on text!

    he desreves to win hes wayy better than david a.

    GO DAVID C!!

  • I'm not saying that David Archuleta can't sing- 'cause he can (quite well, in fact)-but David Cook is just better, in my humble opinion. He's much more versatile and his genre of music appeals to more people. David A's really good, too, I'd just be worried he'd faint having to perform an hour long concert! And I really couldn't picture myself buying his album- 15 tracks, all ballads. Just my opinion, everyone's etitled to have their say.

  • I agree. He's more experienced. Not more popular, but more experienced.

  • I couldn't agree more.

  • David Cook all the way.

  • this song was the best of the night, he will sell records, DA will hardly be good enough to sell disney records.

  • OMG i love this song!!! this was the better of the two songs...archuletta's song was sooo boing!!

  • Simon is stupid, this song was perfect!!!

  • Did'nt have a favorite after Mic..but today's show mann..Cook is the man !

  • your crazy if you think this guy doesn't want to win if he didn't want to win he wouldn't have worked his ass off through out this whole competition

  • awesome & hot!

  • the judges pissed me off last night. cook was way better than the judges thought, they got caught up in archulettas fans cheering and prefered him. cook did better in the first round, tie in second, archie in third i think

  • I actually prefered Cook in the first round, Archie in the second, and Cook in the 3rd.

  • i love david cook and i hope he wins... this song is amazing too congrats to whoever wrote it because it was an awesome song

  • I would love to see this go on his Album

  • I luv David Cook and he should definately win no doubt about it.

  • I do not like David Cook, besides, he looks indifferent to the comments, he is not being humble enough for me, and he doesn´t seem to want to win.

  • love him. and his versatility!

  • ofcourse all the teen kids like their matessss, i am not surprisred'

  • darnit, the single isn't avaliable on itunes

  • I do not like David Cook, period.

  • I can't believe u want your american idol to be a 17 years old little kid, get a life mannnnnnnn, vote for david cook because he is the one who deserve it'

  • so...since jordin was 17 when she won she shouldn't be the idol? oh okay, i guess the beat boxer can win since he isn't a teenager.

    i'm a cookie fan but that's just stupid logic there buddy.

  • he was so good!

    simon was wrong

  • i would freakin love to see him in concert. even if he doesn't win he'll still be big.

  • I loved this last night and like it even better now. I think he made a GREAT choice and I lovedlovedloved what he did with this song. David Cook is just a rock star.

  • True that!

  • And you've done what that's so amazing?

  • and your point is?????????? get a life.

  • youre a loser, fuxin?!

  • repetitive rock songs, they kinda get boring. I want Archuleta to win, and he WILL. Good luck to both.

  • you're on crack if you think fagboy archuleta is gonna win.

  • i totally agree with you! hahahaha..

  • and so you want repetitive ballad songs? a pretty face just standing there ... oh.. ok... that's not boring..

  • if anyone sings repetitive songs its archuleta! thats allll he sings is old lady love ballads. DAVID COOK ROCKS!!

  • hahahahh that totally true

  • agreed!!

  • How is the show rigged? Two of the most talented people are in the top two. This whole season has been pretty close anyways.

    Love this song, hope he records it. I dont understand what the deal was with simon last night, but I thouhgt he made good choices and he sounded amazing, he was just as good as Archuleta!!!!!!!!

  • Fake: american idol is rigged.

  • I think that American Idol judges totally made the "hands down" decision for David Archuleta to win Idol. AND HE DESERVES IT! He WAS the better singer last night. However, they are calling for David Cook to win tonight in a SHOCKER move to boost ratings for the ailing American Idol show. Using Archuleta in this way is ashame. He CLEARLY should be the next American Idol!!!
