Congratulations David!
hey david! Just wanna say congratulations on your new album..Hope your gonna sell millions of records..
I love Avalanche,Heroes,Declaration,Lie,Mr.Sensitive,A daily Anthem,and almost every track in your album..LOL!
I just wonder why there is a huge 6 minute silent gap in track 12? anyways,it's still the best rock album I've heard so far..
and umm...by the way,I've red every word and names you've wrote in your thank you list and I've also noticed that you repeated the names andrew berkowitz and wendy goodmann twice...is that a typograpchical error or something? anyways,don't worry about that,I've just said that in case you still didn't noticed it....LOL
congrats again! keep it up...Wish you luck in everything..more power to you! God bless!

I have been listening daily and my favorites keep changing - this is a sign of an incredible album! I love it!!! Can't wait for the tour, seeing these songs performed live will be amazing!
Light On
Great job.... I loved the mix of music that David put together. He has a voice that has had every age group listening.
Good Luck with this David and keep the music coming. Also, don't ever change that common guy image, it makes you along with the songs that you sing.
LOVE IT!
I'm loving the album! On every song, I have a moment of "OMG, David Cook's voice is incredible!" I think you did a great job showcasing your talent. The whole album is great, but I'm especially enjoying Declaration, Lie, Life on the Moon, Mr. Sensitive and Light On.

RELEASE DAY-- LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THE ALBUM!
Missed the chat as I'm in AZ on MST, because I was up around 3am downloading the album to my iPod!
I have come to love your voice, your sound, listening to the Idol downloads all summer... and your album has that great voice, great character and unique sound... I could pick you out of an audio line-up! I was shopping on the 18th listening to my iPod and found my feet tapping and I was starting to sing along as I was learning the lyrics..... I LOVE the whole album! For now all the songs are my favs, tho I have to say Permanent makes my eyes well up. Your songs resonate with sincerity and believability.
I'm loving the pre-ordered CD which Amazon delivered on the 18th, the iTunes downloaded album (you're at #2 today), and hearing you on the radio. I'm also enjoying your performances as you promote the album... Kudos to you and the band!
Enjoy all of this and all of the 'more to come'.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Love the CD - Hate the big gap in track 12!
Love the CD - whole family does! Love Bar-ba-sol - release that one next!
Why, oh why, the big gap in track 12! Don't do that again!
Kiss on the Neck is a nice surprise, but almost not worth the pain to get to it....
Kaite Loves U So Much David Cook : this is my first comment!
Omg i lisend to all the songs on the cd!! i swear. David Cook inspires everyone<3<3<3<3
Chart topping
I just looked at the Itunes charts.And Cook has the number one album for both overall and rock.Woohoo.Just in case anyone didnt know...
No flaw on track 12!!
There isn't anything wrong with your cd. There is like an 8 minute gap and then at 12 minutes into the track, you will find the secret bonus track, Kiss on the Neck....
David, You make my heart sing!
For years I have been listening to talk radio or I would push the seek button until I heard a song I liked because there was nothing out there musically that truly captured my interest. And then I saw this artist on American Idol who had this phenomenal voice. On one result show , I think It was Brooke? was voted off and she was standing there crying all alone and I wanted to the go through the TV and hug her, but I didn't have to because the artist that had this great talent showed me he had a huge heart when he went over to comfort her.
This is what makes you stand out from the rest David. I've mentioned this twice before but it's worth mentioning again. YOU SING FROM YOUR SOUL!!!! This CD invites us (your fans) to get to know you. There are no walls. And you are not afraid of sharing anything with us.
Thank you David. The radio is off. The CD is playing. And it is playing loud!! And my heart has never been happier........
Yes....there is a flaw on Track 12
Yes....I thought it was my CD Player.....there is a flaw on track #12...a long one! Going to exchange it tomorrow at HMV.
Anyone Experienced a Flaw?
Bought the new album at WalMart. Loving it, but there is a huge 6 minute silent gap in the middle of track 12. Exchanged CD but had same problem. So, I returned the CD and am now looking for a new one. Aggh! You can see the seperate rings on the CD. Has anyone else experienced this? Obviously, this Walmart got a batch of bad ones. Now I'm looking for a perfect one.
buy Declaration as well on itunes as a Single!!!
Declaration, but the single along with the album (yes you will end up with two of them) but it will make the single eligable for the U.S. charts. it is currently #44 on itunes, we just need to get that up to the top ten, if everyone does there part, this will be easy!!
David
I would love to chat with you!!! You are an all time favorite...... You strike me as a funny, goofy classic type.... you sound like you like old music and love to sing...... I find that amazing!
i would even like to meet you if possible..... i live in las vegas................................... when you come down i for sure to come see you...... and get your autograoh.......... the best place to do a concert is the hard rock!!! its so cool there and a lot of fans show up! also i would love to get an autograph in person would be amazing.... When the american idol tour came i went to the one in utah and in vegas they were awsome and you were the best out of them both!!!
cant wait to chat someday

THEY ARE ALL MY FAVORITES
Hey, David: I haven't been able to stop listening to the CD every minute that I can, when I am not at work. And I can't decide which song is my favorite, they all are. I love Come Back to Me, Permanent, I Did it For You, Lie....Barbasol rocks. I got the downloads from itunes and the CD from Amazon. I was glad I got the CD as KOTN wasn't on itunes download. But, I miss not having the bonus track on the copy from Wal-Mart, Breathe Tonight. I hope that the bonus tracks will all be released so we can have the entire collection. Or maybe, I'll get that copy for the holidays. My husband is so jealous of the time I spend on the computer looking and reading and listening about you, but he just asked me to burn a copy for his car ride to work. So, you get through to everybody. I am 51, and haven't felt like this about an artist in such a long time, I don't remember when. Well, off to YouTube to look for videos of your performance last night at Hard Rock. I hope I am lucky enough some day to see you, maybe to even meet you and hug you. I really wish I could have been there. Thanks to everyone that was there for sharing with us.
I wish you the very best of luck David!! Keep your feet on the ground and keep facing the sun! Enjoy this time of your life. Because all of us fans want to continue to see you along on the ride.
Love, Gail
Number One on Itunes! Also, www.metrolyrics.com rocks! Can we please have bonus track lyrics?
It's just so cool to see it there. If you haven't already, go to the Itunes page just to see our boy sitting up there at the top!
Also, www.metrolyrics.com has not only the "David Cook" album lyrics, but also some lyrics from the "Analog Heart" album. Except for "Light On," all the lyrics print out smoothly.
But, could you wonderful Webnerds please get them to post the lyrics for the bonus tracks?
Thanks
Awesome!
I knew the CD would be fantastic...and I was not disappointed. This will be one that never leaves my cd player! Keep up the great work!!
Worth the Wait
The wait was well worth it!!!!!!!!!!!!! The CD is outstanding. Finally a CD from start to finish with nothing but "good stuff"....Thank you David.
Permanent
I ball my eyes out whenever I hear Permanent!!!! I can relate to it because it's how I felt when my aunt was going through her cancer treatment. There wasn't one single day that I didnt wish that it was me instead of her, or that I could take it all away for her. She passed away this October so it is a really hard time but that song just helps me heal knowing that I'm not theo nly one in the world who has felt that way about another person at one time or another!
<3 always ERIN

OMG
WOW, what a great CD, David is trully amazing! Can decide which song I like the best because they are all so great! There is sure to be many number ones coming from this one. Can't wait for the tour! Tampa loves DC!!!
I love the Album David :)
Your album Rocks. My Favorite songs are Declaration, Heroes, Avalance, And Bar Ba Sol.
:)
I cried when i heard Permanet it's such a beautiful song, Love it. Congradulations David.
"""""""I Love You Soooooooo Much """""""""""""""""""""""""""
Can't wait for the tour.
Shelli
Awesome
I love this CD, the best to me is Lie (I can relate!!) . I downloaded it from iTunes at midnight Monday/Tuesday & went last night to Target & bought a copy. I am telling all my friends about it. They need to make all the bonus songs available on iTunes. I only got the hidden track (which is great) on the CD I bought at Target. #1 on iTunes overall & #1 on the Rock list - way to go. The singles are climbing on the Rock list but only Decleration is showing up on the overall chart. Way to go David, you did not disappoint your fans!!! Also, to mention Steve Perry in your thank yous, he is one of my all time favs!! Also, I too pre-ordered it on iTunes but found out that it did not go through.
:)
I am bummed that I had to miss this yesterday.
But, I am ecstatic to finally have the CD in my hands!

"Kiss on the Neck"

New CD
Wow, I bought the CD last night and seriously have not turned it off once. I fell asleep to it last night and listened all the way to work. It is absolutely the best CD! I am so glad a real true American idol won this time. I was starting to lose faith in America but never doubted your true talent. Your an amazing artist and your voice is so awesome. Keep rocking and try coming to Cincinnati, OH. You have a huge fan base here!! Love ya!!!!!!!
Sliding in here just at midnight Hawaii time ...
... because I couldn't let this gigantic day go by without saying SOMEthing. It was huge for David! (And, not to mention, all his ridiculously, slavishly devoted WNs.)
Now that I have the full album plus bonuses in my sweaty little paws, I spent all day going deeper into the songs, breathing them in, sliding into their underwater depths, trying to really see and feel what DC was trying to convey.
And now I am ... exhausted!
It's all gorgeous and passionate and layered and sad and glorious and beautiful. And listening to it all over and over totally wore me out.
Happy now, rockstar? I think that's what you wanted.
I'll write a smarter reaction to it all later. Just had to get this one last initial reaction in for Album Day, though.

Artwork by the fabulous Jen (original orange) ... <3
Last night at 12:01 I kept getting an error...almost a panic!
I thought I had it pre-ordered a long time ago on itunes. In a panic realizing it wasn't there I tied to purchase, I kept getting an error, ahh!!!!! I quite and reopened and got it at 12:20. I just couldn't wait for the order I placed with Walmart and Amazon, how funny I have no good reason to have ordered 3...just couldn't wait. Then I was impressed tonite- the one from Walmart arrived on exactly the 18th wow-. I loved that David was the Art Director!!!!
