David Cook's Song Choices

I wanted to comment on 2 of the 3 songs I know of that David Cook will be performing next week on American Idol.

First, Simon picked "First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" and I'm not real sure how DC feels about this song. I don't know how he would cookify this one, so he may just sing it straight the way it is. Cook has the vocal range to be able to sing this VERY DIFFICULT SONG. David has the heart and soul to wrap around the words and meaning and make it pop. I can see him with a #1 hit just like "Music of the Night." Grunge rocker/opera/broadway star Dave Cook is able to cover the telephone book and make us like it!

Second, Collective Soul's "World I Know" is a rather easy song to sing. I heard DC say that he was going to change this one up, so I can't wait to see what he does with it. I am curious to know what he is thinking when he sings this song. What does it mean to him? To me, when I sing the song, I think of 911 and all the poor people who had to face God that day.

EVERYONE NEEDS TO VOTE THEIR FINGERS OFF NEXT WEEK SO THAT WE CAN ENJOY MORE DC IN THE FINALE!  DC deserves to win AI, and we must give DC what he wants! I wish the best for his family. I would love to hear his brother sing, too. I'm sure that talent runs in families. Squirrelly loves you, David Cook!

You should check out his first CD!!! This CD is SUPER RARE!! This place online is selling them. I'm sure it's going to be a collectors item!!! (I bought a few). Just thought a true David Cook fan would appreciate this :)

I love music, and I am totally COOKIEFIED! David Cook is now my favorite artist. He makes me feel like I'm 14 again. His performances make me melt (I'm a melting Cookie). I love DC, and think he is a musical genius! I am a Republican (don't want any more tax increases) and a Christian (I have actually read all of the books of the Bible, several times, every single word, so I am capable of having an "intelligent" conversation about God). I have written and recorded some Christian songs. I like to sing karaoke, hiking, and traveling. I went to Israel, Egypt, and Greece back in the mid '80's. I've been to Cancun, Mexico and the Bahamas, and Canada. I love rock music. I've sung many songs from many artists at Karaoke. Some of my favs include: Ozzy (Paranoid/War Pigs live version, Ironman, Fairies Wear Boots), Steely Dan (Do it Again), Aerosmith (Dream On), Moody Blues (Nights in White Satin), America (Sister Goldenhair), Neil Young (Heart of Gold), Collective Soul (The World I Know), Carly Simon (You're So Vain), Deep Purple (Smoke On the Water), Nancy Sinatra (These Boots Are Made For Walkin'), Weezer (Hash Pipe), Fleetwood Mac (Gold Dust Woman and Stop Draggin' My Heart Around--duet), Green Day (Boulevard), Stones (Paint it Black), Def Leopard (Pour Some Sugar on Me), Animals (House of the Risin' Sun), Badfinger (No Matter What You Want), Turtles (So Happy Together)--didn't hear DC do this one, but I'm sure he does it better than I do, Cream (White Room), and Ted Nugent and the Amboy Dukes (Journey to the Center of the Mind)--(great song BTW, showstopper, first psychadelic song I ever heard).
