this rankks as one of the sexiest cover of a song ever. david cook did not attract just women. he earned the praise of men as well. he is a true artist, not just some idol/hearthrob. IMO he was the greatest performer on stage, simply because he engaged with each listenner, each and everyone of his audience. and he was so emotionally connected to his songs you can't help but see his sensitive side and be moved by such amazing artist. and yes, sexy voice, but more than that,
Idol just isn't the same anymore. David Cook was the last Idol to sell over a million. He and Jennifer Hudson are sharing fourth place behind Kelly, Carrie and Daughtry. This year's crop are all good... but none outstanding. But that is just my opinion. And I buy records. I will most likely buy Pia's CD... and can't wait for Cook's second to come out.
One of the most inventive, creative, and truly well rounded likable people to come out of AI. MAD vocal chops, style, personality, warms your heart and well spoken with a good head on his shoulders....a true idol.
So David Cook's version is AMAZING. I grew up listening to this song because my parents used to play it all the time. I think Stefano Langone's version isn't bad either, vocally it was beautiful and he nailed it. But I think as an artist, you need to find yourself into that song and I think David Cook did just that. He did such great justice to this song. One of the best American Idol winners (even though I was rooting for David Archuleta that season) Haha! :))
you cant compare him and stefano. stefano uses his voice to create beauty and majesty... david does the same but much better and with a emo twist... then destroys all with the power of rock!!!!!
Coming back to this again, still amazes me. Can't wait to hear new music from David Cook. I bought Cook's cover of Don't You Forget About Me on itunes. It's this year's boot song on Idol. I have it on constant replay.
David's voice is SO amazing and powerful! This version blows me away every time I listen....gives me major goosebumps every time. He is the best Idol ever and a fantastic musician. I've worn out his post-Idol CD, it's so great, and can't wait for the new one coming the next couple of months. Hello, David....bring it on, baby!!
AFTER Stefano dared THE DAREMAN last nite... didnt he know.. David Cook "owns" this cover!!!!!!!! Simon Cowell .... "David that was a very brave thing to do and I loved it !"
Even though I've seen this vid and heard this version many times, watching and listening to David Cook do his thing.....I'm a puddle on the floor, again.
Stefano should NOT have done that. Sorry, he needs to go home. All anyone could think about is how amazing DC did this. One on AI's greatest moments IMHO!
@callyn6 Agreed, DC really felt it, it's like he's singing to one person and at the same time making everyone in the audience feel like he's singing specifically to them. Stefano's great but choosing a song so iconic on Idol, hmm, you better bring it, and he didn't =\
David Cook made every song he sang his own as a competitor on AI. This was much better than Stefano, no offense to Stefano. David Cook took the lead on AI at taking a song and fitting it to his own unique style. The kids this season on AI could really take a lesson from Cook book of success! :)
When I heard that Stefano was going to sing a classic Lionel Richie song, I thought I hope it's not Hello. Well it was Hello and Stefano was horrible!!! David's emo version is a classic!!! It is so obvious how David connected with the audience and Stefano did not.
If David Cook was on every season, he would win every season. Idol stank after his season. I am still watching every single A.I. videos of his still to this day. I don't even bother watching A.I. anymore - unless he's on.
The past 2 seasons as well as the current season have just bored me to tears. I have to watch all of his videos just to remind me what a great season 7 was because he was on it. And someone dared sing this song this season? Can't compare to David...

i miss this voice of cook, similar to his pre-idol voice. his voice got huskier and his baritone voice almost disappeared post-idol. but he's got such great range, he sounds good in any range he chooses. just amazing. if only he'd release his second cd already! he's not as versatile as daughtry, which is why daughtry soars in the charts. but cook is all artistry, all-rock, and there's plenty of room for his sound. just needs to get it out there...again!
Him, along with Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson are in a way different league than all the other random people, David Cook is the best IMHO.
DC set the bar so high that no matter how good these new Idols are, they won't come close. he's the only one who I wanted to win, won. Was that a right choice of words? :O
u must read this. once u have started there is no turning back. a little 10 year old girl was raped and murderded in 1945. her body was not found until 1947. then a boy last week read this and did not copy and paste this message. the dead girl appeared in his room haunting him and killed him. if you do not copy and paste this onto 10 vidoes in 30 minutes the dead girl will apear in your room tonight and haunt you and kill you
I just told my husband that i am obsessed with David Cook. And he said, " It's ok." Hey, i can marry him. If only i am not the millionth line. :-) Love this guy and and his songs.
I LOVE Simon. The way he starts his commentary is like, "Listen closely because my words are big, beautiful, and will make your life." Tonight I decided to check out David Cook and David Archuleta , I like Archuleta but I am so, very impressed with Cook. Very impressed.
@MennaYousuf That wasn't rude. This is a tricky comment to whether I agree or disagree 'cause I love both versions. I would say this version is the most relevant today.
@pilgrimontheroad For me it's the little smile and lip grab at :37-:38. More infatuated with him today than I was then. The guy definitely has a very, very special quality.
Wow. I can't believe this performance took place 2 years ago tonight. SO much has happened since then...but this still sends shivers down my spine like the very first time I ever heard it.
David Cook will ALWAYS be my Idol. NO ONE could EVER take his place. <3 <3
I remember thinking: imagine a guy singing this to you? ahhh melted and became a fan since then... great song and arrangement, sooo glad he won :) And wishing him the best!!!!!
I LOVEEEE YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

@pilgrimontheroad For me it's the little smile and lip grab at :37-:38. More infatuated with him today than I was then. The guy definitely has a very, very special quality.

Wow. I can't believe this performance took place 2 years ago tonight. SO much has happened since then...but this still sends shivers down my spine like the very first time I ever heard it.
David Cook will ALWAYS be my Idol. NO ONE could EVER take his place. <3 <3

I'm so glad that his brother got to see him become a star before he passed away.
