Ok I know why, even though I disagree, earlier music that was out was recalled or pulled from the markets, but I LOVE DEAR HEAVEN!!!!! Is it ever going to be rereleased or put on another album? I love it! It is rock, and emotion and it is so amazing! I listen to it every day.. don't ask how or I may have to brainwash you! LOL But for real. Where is it? Or when if ever will it be released again???
I was having surgery the day your album came out (Nov. 18, 2008). The saying in my family that year was, "I Hate 2008." Surgery was just one of the many things that happened that year. But the one good thing was the release of David Cook's first album after winning Season 7 of American Idol!! Because I was in the hospital, I had to have my mom buy David's CD for me. After listening to his CD many times, I was able to turn a corner in my life. His music inspired me when I was down, warmed me when I was cold toward God and toward the world, and influenced me when nothing else could. With David's music in my life and with God's help, I proceeded to move forward in my life. Even though times haven't been perfect (which they never are), just listening to David's voice made all the difference in the world to me and still does!
Thanks DAVID COOK for being such a warm, loving, and genuinely talented human being! I LOVE YOU!!!
I love this cd so much. I listen to it every single day aand you feel the power in his voice everytime he sings. My favorite song is light on. I listien to that song every single day.
David all of us fans especially the female ones are waiting on baded breath for your new album to come out.It sounds like it is going tpo be amazing and we cannot expect anything less from you!!!The U2esque vibe is enough to tell me that this is going to be awesome.Anything to do with Bono I am definetely there.It would be exciting if you get to write with the Irish Rocker at some point.I heard an example of one of your songs in early Feb when you went to N.Y,C to write,and the song Uand I was awesome!!!I like how the piano was encooperated in.So with that sample and what you were also talking about with Michael Slesak from E.W. we are in for quite a ride with you.I love how you use your creativity and your mind and you really show us your true artistry!!!
My hubby and I love this album. Listen to it regularly. The only problem I have is that #12 is missing. It plays and shows the ticker on my stereo, but no sound at all. I love every song on this cd, so I'll have to buy another one because I'm sure its great too!
This album is amazing!! You can listen to every song and not skip to the next! I honestly couldnt say which song is my favorite because they are all amazing! But, I really like "I Did It For You". David did a great job on this album and I know his second will be amazing too!
This album spoke to me so much that I could almost believe it was tailor made for me, Every single song is on my playlists and that NEVER happens with albums, i usually pick and choose the ones i like then delete the rest but i have not been able to do that with the DC tracks. Declaration is so amazing vocally that i can feel it in my gut when i hear it, and Permanant has such amazing lyrics and power that i can only listen to it when im alone just in case it makes me cry. My other favorites are Life on the Moon, Lie and Breathe Tonight but i love them all. I love this album and i'm so incredibly happy that David Cook won AI, I knew he could do it and i knew he would be amaizng, I cant wait for the new album.
saved up and bought a new BMW 135i with a very nice stereo system (better than anything IN my house) and the first music I ripped to the car's hard drive was David's album. Absolutely love the album! Given it as birthday gifts to family and friends.

I have to admit I'm not much of an American Idol follower, but I loved your single "The Time of My Life" and downloaded from Itunes shortly after it was released. I again loved "Light On" and was blown away from your performance on SNL. I was looking for some new music to listen to at the gym and looked into your album. I previewed the songs and loved ALL of them! I downloaded it and began the hunt for more of your music! Your voice is amazing and you can carry your voice in so many amazing ways! I love your song Permanent the most and found it at the right time. I too lost a loved one to cancer and it will be a year since I lost my uncle to leukemia on February 3. I am inspired by what you do for cancer research and it has inspired me to "Give Back". I unfortunately did not find your music until now and missed you visiting Pittsburgh last August and look forward to finding you on tour sometime soon. I am deeply excited about your new album coming out this summer! It is so nice to see that stardom hasn't changed you!
I absolutely cannot wait for your next CD. This one completely blew me away and will no doubt remain one of my favorites! The strength and passion I felt from the hearing "Light On" gave me serious goosebumps. I look forward to hopefully hearing that live. Thank you, David! (P.S. I'm from MO, too!)
I love this album! Everyday it seems I have a new favorite but the one that appears most as my #1 is Kiss on the Neck. That is a true rock song! Keep up the great work David Cook and the Anthemic! I can't wait for the next album!
I absolutely LOVEEEE this album. I have only seen you in concert a few times but you are so talented. I saw you at Atlantic City this summer and you were amazing and still are. I follow you on twitter as well haha. Your cd is great and i love every song and listen to each of them every day. "Lie" is my favorite song but then again I change it all the time. I can't wait for your new album and I can't wait to see you in concert again! Thank you so much for inspiring me with your kind words through this album.
Every song on 'David Cook' is absolutley amazing! Based on how this album turned out, there is no doubt in my mind that the next ones will be even better!
David this is an amazing CD, you've outdone yourself... You have proven to the world that you are versatie, and definitely touched many hearts with your lyrics, voice and the amazing emotion you put into every song. You certainly reached deep into my heart with your voice and touched us all with your humillity, generous heart and your charisma. This CD WILL stand the test of time like you hoped it would. I am a singer also and love the quality of your voice, I can't wait to hear what's next..... Peace ,love and happiness to you

I loved David from the first note on the first day of AI. And nothing has changed. This cd has amazing songs and amazing vocals and music. But more than that, there is a quality that David posesses that speaks to something deeper. He sings with his soul, and passion and his songs connect on an emotional level, deeper than a surface appreciation for his music. Keep up the great work, David, and thank you for being so REAL!
The best album I have in my cd collection! Among all the Axium albums too!!!! David creates magical lyrics and catchy melodies that keep you wanting more. Can't wait to see what the next album has in store!
This is the best album out there. The best album ever!! Along with any other album put out by this man! Can't wait to see what David and the Anthemic have for the new album!
Can't wait for it to come out!
Great job David! Good luck with your next album! These songs are really inspiring the book i started writing, so thanks all of you in the band!

I love David Cook. I voted for him tons of times on American Idol, In fact; my WHOLE FAMILY LOVES HIM!!!
My mom turned 66 on Oct 13th, and I bought his cd for her + I bougt one for myself. I have listened to it NON-STOP!!! I love ALL the songs but my absolute fav's are: Declaration (love the rock sound) & The Time of My life (song he sang when he won American Idol) but I also love "Permanent" as I have to wipe the tears away each time I listen to the words. My heart goes out to David Cook and family for the loss of David's brother. Sad!!! Very sorry. LOVE THE MUSIC DAVID. CANT WAIT FOR MORE ALBUMS TO COME OUT!!!
all songs are really really great! i always listen to it and it really inspires me a lot. mr. sensitive, life on the moon, lie and specially avalanche are my favorites. can't wait for him to visit and rock the Philippines again. and of course,,,, can't wait for his new album! :3
Lie is a Great song. I don't think there is a bad song from the CD. I can see a cartoon interspersed with the band's head banging for a video for Barbasol. Avalanche is beautiful... I wish they would play Silver onstage.
The songs are great, but I need to read the lyrics to really get "inside" what each song is about. According to CD insert, lyrics are available on DAVIDCOOKOFFICIAL.COM. Where??????
There is not a song on it that I don't like, which is rare. He has an amazing voice and the music and lyrics are great. Impressive first album David. Keep 'em coming!
