David Cook "Rolling In The Deep" Acoustic (Adele/Cover) @Pet-a-Palooza, Las Vegas 4.9.11

[JoyceAngel123]

Wow what a set of pipes!

[altess1]

I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with this wonderful -- guy and songwriter and singer and performer and musician and humanitarian and family man and wordnerd and intellect and... [searching for more to rave about...]

[1lynnelynne]

@altess1 I know what you mean! Talented to the bones, and also a really, really grounded . . . nice guy! Not to bad on the eyes, either . . . : )

[0InsaneBrain0]

He ain't the American Idol for nothing!!

[LylaPierson]

If any one knows what key he sings this in? I am a woman with a deep voice and I could do this Adele cover at karaoke if this was the key ...

THANKS

[markroca08]

he is so amazing..

[hallyuaddict1130]

He was sooo talented and yeah, I agree that ..."once he grabs hold of you it's really, really hard to let go!!! ".

I love you David <3

[OCPeace219]

OMG I loooooooooooooooove it

[CesarRdMRO]

Cook could easily put a cd with only covers. I liked all his covers in American Idol. Eleanor Rigby was genial, IMO.

[Sonics1624]

David you are really amazing..nice voice

[Arimaarima71]

awesome job, David!!! woo-hoo I never heard a man sing this before!! hats off to you, dude! great job. wish I was there to see this. Love youu

[instrumentalambition]

The tone of his voice is like the male equivalent of Adele's

[zciel18]

Ofcourse this is the best Rolling in the deep cover..... because David Cook IS THE BEST! :D

[calicat23]

That was hot *melts*

[Challenger29841]

X factor next year :)

[akoconstantino]

Awesome.

[ValeJxOfficial]

LOVE THIS! MY DREAMS CAME TRUE!!

[Xentriiic]

Imo, "They keep me thinkin' that we almost had it all" is one of the best parts of the song.

[TheClinkerboy]

his high pitch sound is just chilling, goosebumps!

[naruto8337]

Amazing...Better than Adele!

Really

[curikit]

Definitely the best male cover of this song. Love the strength and heat.

[jbfan1987]

*swoons*

[cherrypie4125]

wow thats hot

[idolboy09]

In one word: Wow!

[iamgillian24]

GREAT. just great.

[SpearWarrior671]

One of the BEST vocalists I know who can sing this AWESOME live

[mikrosha]

shit good voice

[FrenchJohntingson]

nice. i lovw this song

[waikeit94]

Both Chester Bennington and David Cook are brilliant.

I am a huge David Cook and Linkin Park fan.

David Cook is my favourite solo singer and Linkin Park is my favourite band, so when both of them covered this song, I was literally jumping with joy.

[connorsmommy36]

@waikeit94 Same here...HUGE fans of both, and both covers are beyond fantastic!!

[MyOngaku]

nobody can sing better than adele

[PivotRocks1179]

@MyOngaku Chester Bennington!

[I8cupcake100]

wow.

[TTJJ91]

He should totally do a studio version of this! he covers this perfectly!

[sugarpopgirl1234]

wow i love this. him. same thing.

[NathanThompsonMusic]

Im so proud to be from KC.... even though im from KCK and no KCMO haha. -- check out my covers!?:D

[titochuloteama]

Super

[edwardjrism]

cook has a great powerful voice, manly voice at that...

[NinaRock182]

David Cook!!! Oh My Gosh.....!!!!

[maggiemaeking]

I do so love Mr. Cook's cover of this song. Great video. Thank you so much for posting this! Have watched it more times than I can count!

[jrachelle13]

Would love to hear David and Adele sing this together as a "duel" to see who could out do the other. awesome.

[wizzard3446]

Wow...he puts so much enrgy in the song :) sure Adele is proaud :)

[sljohn004]

maybe if there was a studio version, it will be the best cover... i love the original tempo, i hate the boring sleepy slow ones XD

[cookiecloudy]

In my opinion, this is the best male cover of Rollin' In The Deep, because:

1. It's live, so no attempt to smooth it out with technology.

2. No slowing down the tempo. I think slowing it down makes this song sound lazy and it's a raging song.

3. The high pitch that's close to the original. With a male voice, that's really respectable.

4. The band sounds great, even with audio difficulties.

[Anybody935]

@cookiecloudy I guess you didn't heard the Chester's cover from Linkin Park, David is good but in my opinion Chester is way better and also sings on live

[cookiecloudy]

@Anybody935 I did listen to Chester's version and like I said ^, it's my opinion. To each its own :)

[connorsmommy36]

@cookiecloudy Chester Bennington from Linkin Park does an INCREDIBLE live, acoustic version of this song.



[TheClinkerboy]

@connorsmommy36

I love linkin park but i think davids version to it is tter, i think f chester would loose the ballad feel in that song and scream in his chillling tone itd have been great!

[fHrUnKztEr]

he should have sing the verse in a lower pitch . . .

[klarth]

I hate that he's hiding from the chorus, what is he afraid of? nonetheless, I love this cover so fucking much

[ViceroyNelson]

@klarth He isn't hiding from the chorus, the venue crew was having audio issues, if you read the description. If you watch any of his other live performances, he would have sounded incredible if the audio had been better.

[MrMoverby1]

I used to think David archuleta should have won American idol but after I really listen to David cooks music they both are great!

[webbertools]

Man!!!!  This is good!###

[JerryJeanMusic]

Killer, razor sharp vocals.  Rock!

[TheKaNAyACE]

Its amazing how rolling in the deep covers are better than the original. This one is simply fantastic.

[kln2729]

i love his voice.. and im very happy he didn't murder this song :)

[MsTVDAddict]

Went to my first David Cook show Thurs night and I've fell in love with him! I've spent the last 6 days on YouTube watching live videos. He's amazing! Every cover he does is amazing!!

[1lynnelynne]

@MsTVDAddict Welcome to the DC Club! You'd better watch out . . . once he grabs hold of you it's really, really hard to let go!!! ~L

P.S. Hope that you also go take a listen to his original music . . . it's amazing! "This Loud Morning" is my favorite : )

[MsTVDAddict]

@1lynnelynne I've got his albums since the concert too. Don't worry! LOL He's all I listen to now. And there will be no letting go, that I know for sure. I'm addicted! :)

[1lynnelynne]

@MsTVDAddict Yup! He can do that to you : ) ~L

[Axl207]

i wanna hoot with this its much too good HOOOOOT

[cookisbest]

I like DC's version better than Adele's original.

[lalo159]

i love him!! love this version!!!! David Cook the best!

[menjam28]

i am falling in love with DAVID COOK.... i love his version and all of him..

[nightlyt]

WOW!

[azngrl23]

How could you not like that?

[ritwingr]

@bigieo77 His cover of Billie Jean is probably the best interpretation of another artist's song I've ever heard.

[KyplayaZ4lyfe]

@ritwingr but it wasn't his cover it was Chris Cornell's.

[ritwingr]

@KyplayaZ4lyfe OK, hey, I'm not a Cook groupie or anything. I've just loved his version of that song ever since I first heard it...so I'm not arguing with you...I'll take your word for it. But logic tells me that since Michael Jackson's version was the original - or so Ive always thought - that make anyone else's version a cover. Where am I wrong?

Again, not asked in hostility. Just trying to understand.

[KyplayaZ4lyfe]

@ritwingr No your right that it is Michael Jackson's song but David Cook's rendition was used from Chris Cornell's that he did at a concert. Like when Chris Daughtry did i walk the line different yes it was different from johnny cash's but he did Live's cover of it not his own.

[ritwingr]

@KyplayaZ4lyfe OK. Just out of curiousity though...another one of my favorite covers was the Stone interpretation of "Just My Imagination" on Some Girls. It's way different - and in my humble opinion better - than the Temptations version.

So is someone else does a version that's similar, you would say they were covering the Stones, not the Temptations?

[KyplayaZ4lyfe]

@ritwingr David Cook's version of Billie Jean was Chris Cornell's version. So it's simple as this David Cook did Chris Cornell's cover of Michael Jackson's Billie Jean. Boom the End. I was simply just informing you that it wasn't his interpretation but Chris Cornell's that is all. If you look up Chris Cornell's Billie Jean you'll see what I'm talking about.

[bigleo777]

This guy does the best covers EVER. He is alright at writing his own songs, but the way he covers other songs is just amazing!!!>

[JessLiberti]

wow that´s awsome!! Great cover .... thumbs uup

[ilovedavidmattchris]

He's so amazing

[Ta1on10]

I Truly believe his Idol run was by far the best to date. Many will argue and say Kelly, Carrie, or Fantasia et cetera........ They may have more hits and albums sold but him during American Idol?...... .......He owned it. The most memorable by far!.

[bayveoveo]

3:45 up until now i've just known what is it used for (I don't know what is it called)

[irontoyvn]

This is why i'm proud to be the Member of David Cook's Fan Club ......He is ROCK Wooo.

[TheSapiosexual]

i love when he says "oh dear God" in the beginning. :P lol

[BruPieriD]

35 people can't sing.

[neyrilande]

very gooooooooooooooood-Brasil

[robrussellmusic]

this dude is actually a good singer.

[luvadam59]

NICE!

[mermcc]

Mr. Cook, please do this on the tour. Beats the Billy Joel cover to pieces.

[AznVi3tx]

The beard looks great

[1Suncatcher]

I hope Cookie records this - it's unbelievable! I'll buy it! Probably the best cover - by anyone! Love the change ups he makes, especially making use of the clapping as if instruments. David Cook needs a new manager or something - he's SO good and, though he's doing well, he should be a super star by now. Superb musician and great entertainer!

[coolfreya]

Wow, it is an even sexier when sang by a guy...like it!

[elenacarpenter926]

HOOOOOOTTTTTTTT



[tangoctuanh27]

<3 <3 <3

[tangoctuanh27]

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!­!

[Bford288]

I don't know what I love better, the cover of this song, or the at fact that he's repping one of my favorite bands on his hoodie.

[ReynartEXV]

I think this is the best cover ever

[jrbagnall34]

I still love David. I know his career did not blow up like I thought it would, but I think he is so sexy. Too bad I am 8 years older.

[destined2die2]

@jrbagnall34 I agree, but he is making a living doing what he loves most. Fame isn't what it's cracked up to be anyway. It corrupts a lot of people.

[MrNikko137]

What kind of camera are you using?

[1lynnelynne]

@MrNikko137 I use a Cannon G9 camera on video mode. The Cannon G series (I believe that they are up to a G12 now) is a camera that many professional photographers use when they want a small camera.

[1Suncatcher]

@1lynnelynne Thank you so much for uploading this! Also appreciate your comments about what you saw during his performance. Great video! Cook does act frustrated, but he's a perfectionist and it shows in his music as it does here too. Thanks again!

[1lynnelynne]

@1Suncatcher You are so welcome! It is absolutely my pleaure to record and comment on DC's music! Hopefully, there will be more to come. I will be at all three California Concerts, so watch for more videos! ~L

[1Suncatcher]

@1lynnelynne Wish I could join you in CA at those concerts, but I'm stuck here in Massachusetts (the new "tornado alley"! I'll be watching for your videos and thanks again!

BTW, great seats to get this close to David Cook for this video. Great job!

[1lynnelynne]

@1Suncatcher Thanks so much! Actually I was standing outside in a field (no seats) about 30 feet from the stage when I recorded this video. I used the close up lens on my camera. It may be tricky to capture any vids in CA this time - I hear that they are taking cameras away from people at some of the venues on this tour! (btw: they do return your camera at the end of the concert) This happened to me this past summer at one of Eddie Vedder's concerts. So we'll see what I can do! ~L

[mandielovesyouu]

i love this man.

[prasanna298]

nice man you sing like adele. that song for you only NOT for adele

[kradamgasm]

34 are Archuleta fans...

[besztyenka]

Wow, It's WONDERFUL! best male cover , i think too.

[ealo11]

If I was the right age for David, I would be hopelessly in love with him. He is stellar on this video and is sexier than ever.

[emilgabz]

Its not easy to sing this song especially in a male version..i did watch how Lp sang this and it wasnt easy..but thumps up for david..

[pweller5]

Still can't believe I was there to hear this stellar cover by David Cook. His new album This Loud Morning is a true work of art and if you like this you should invest in it and support true singer/writer/artist like him and Adele! Thank You. I support Adele for the same reason.

[mrdyapes]

Try Boyce Avenue's cover... Best ever!

[MrJuliane16]

caralhoooo q voooz *-*

[markmccormick]

Wish there was a studio version of this.

[1lynnelynne]

@markmccormick If you go to 4shared you can find an MP3 of David's "Rolling In The Deep" that a sound tech (I believe at a Baltimore radio station) worked on to clean up the audio. It's really pretty great! You may have to listen to several, but you will know immediately when you find the good one! Good Luck!

[ryanhames1432]

he did good but i have to say the linkin park is a tad bit better

[yeabudie745]

@ryanhames1432 Linkin Park? Huh?

[thestricken8]

@ryanhames1432 in all fairness this was probably recorded on a camera phone, vs the pro camera that recorded the lp cover ;P

[1lynnelynne]

@thestricken8 Actually, I used my Cannon G9 camera to record this performance. What you hear is pretty accurate of the sound tech difficulties that the crew was dealing with that afternoon. It was freezing cold, and very windy - it had rained and even snowed a bit earlier in the day. My video doesn't begin to capture what was actually going on, on this stage! ~L

[sailorstarcatcher]

i'm in love! <3

[tapgyn]

best male cover ever! he outdid linkin park

[scribe201]

great job but it looks like DC ain't happy with the performance. tech issues, probably.

[misslorellianne]

wowwww!

[lizzieDflower]

@Arturostunes I think justin timerlake would do a great job on this song (think of "cry me a river". what do you guys think????

[jhgthbf]

LOL at the camera at the bottom of the screen.

[mcjllane]

This is absolutely the best cover of Adele's RITD. No one can top this.

[TomsChannal]

I liked linkin parks better.....

[blurtanable]

LOL at his many picks on the mike stand

[hincheah]

HAD AN EARGASM :P

[fulzsiros]

best rolling in the deep cover

[fulzsiros]

best rolling in the deep cover

[kdaakaworm]

Good but John Legend's is better

[nemerbe]

Would have been very good, but there are times that the guitar is louder than his voice

[TheSmurfAngel]

So far BEST male cover by far!!!!! Love David....

[MargitB19]

@TheSmurfAngel

the john legend cover is pretty awesome too. i think both legend and cook did a good job with the song.

[omglolwut212]

@TheSmurfAngel linkin park much better

[itsmyluckyday27]

@omglolwut212 John Legend's version is the best.

[johnandthegoonsquad]

@TheSmurfAngel I like the Chester Bennington version also. 

[lk1407]

cook has incredible range thats what makes it so good

[lk1407]

this has to be the best male cover of this song

imo better job than chester

[GodsAreLeftHanded]

guess american idol gets a good singer every once and a while...

[lizedawg]

spot. on. fuck yes, david cook.

[lizibrahim]

i'm almost speechless... i can only say "LOVE IT LOVE IT AND LOVE IT".. .. hugs and kisses to you David Cook xoxo

[chroem11]

very nice. he did it all..

[ULibby]

Check out David Cook's duet with the little girl Denise from PS22 they sang this together it's pretty amazing.



[tashababy6]

really good but the high parts he needed to be closer to the mic

[stormhockey1979]

Bloody awesome! X

[ChoaticSAVANT]

and I just when I thought no one can top linkin park's version... damn

[submersed23]

Lol I though it said Dane cook singing that's y I clicked it

[crazybabyhey]

He's so good

[JosellesMusic]

His vocal range is unlimited

[NyCArole426]

Can a "Cover" get any better than this? David Cook yOu rocked it! Adele will be proud!!

[10s635]

david cook doesn't get the recognition he deserves seriously

[blbritigan]

@10s635 I totally agree. He has one of the best voices out there. Check out his new album, This Loud Morning-it is fantastic. Deluxe version has 2 extra songs that are great as well. Will be touring in about a month. He is unbelievable live!!

[Irish4real1]

1 word amazing! anyone else agree??

[FriggnTeen36]

his good

[youngchief09]

best male cover of Adele's song!

[sweetpea3950]

adele and david cook so needs to do a duet together!

[zhapper2002]

Fuckin' amazing! After listenin' to this cover, damn i got an eargasm! LOL

[StarryRhythm43]

I was a David Archuleta fan... but HOT DIGGITY DAMN! He's pretty good! o.O

[Jesterjaste]

Anyone have chords for this song?

[Crittab]

Chills. Everything he does is gold.

[TheAdalar]

i think chester bennington did it better cuz he has a better voice to this song :/

[Iamlucky8]

Team leafty woo

[stanleycook91]

i'm still hook up! :)

[MusicMayhem23]

im glad there isnt more singers with his amazing voice cause then i dont think i could appreciate him quite as much...this shit is beautiful!(: ....just sayin(:

[AdolfHitlerIsMyBitch]

@MusicMayhem23 Right, Only Chester & David Cook are the best male singers

[SilentAssasssin1]

PERFECT COVER TO A PERFECT SONG ! <3
