American Idol Audition Video - David Cook

image David Cook said that he watched Chris Daughtry’s audition video for any hints on how to get through the audition round as a rocker (though, his clothing did kinda remind me of a less colorful version of Blake Lewis – anyone else?).

He sang “Livin’ on a Prayer” and I thought it was really good.  A little awkward timing-wise in spots but good nonetheless.

Watch David’s audition:

    David is a good friend of mine from here in Tulsa…..
    He did so well, and I am proud!

    Thanks so much for doing this… The video is great!
    I love this blog! :)

    Thanks, Danielle!

    I love the Idol auditions and I really liked David!

    I don’t know, I thought he was kind of bland (and so was DAUGHTRY’S audition) and generic, but I’d rather watch this guy than a bunch of Carrie clones. There’s one more rocker they might show tomorrow; it will be interesting to see how it goes down w/ SO many rockers this year! So far I like Michael Johns the most; he’ll probably be pretty versatile.

    I thought he was better than Chris Daughtry and I’m a huge fan of him so I hope this guy can pull off to the finals

    hey! i think everybody should know that David is now 25, his birthday is in December. :)

    I really liked David Cook!
    I think he is the best I’ve seen so far this year. I will be curious to see how the rest of the auditions go but I think he’ll probably make the top 10 if he keeps singing the way he did in round 1.
    And he’s only 25? I bet we’ll be seeing more from him on or off Idol.

    David is my Fav so far.

    David the “real deal” as they say =) all they way! Watching him is like watching a professional. He is oozing cool and incredibly talented. LOVE him!

    I believe David is way better than Daughtry; he is more exciting and interesting with better looks and talent. Daughtry is boring and generic. Sorry, Daughtry.

    David Cook is my dream. He is by far the sexiet and most talented thing i’ve ever had the pleasure of seeing. I wish i could steal him. I’m so in love with that sexy baby! Marry me, David.

  12. Journey to the American Idol Finale: David Cook

    [...] Audition – For his audition, David sang “Living on a Prayer” which I think is always a risky song to pick but he actually turned in a good performance and made it to the next round! [...]

    I adore this boy. He’s… intelligent and sweet and eloquent and kind and genuine and a great singer. I have a huge crush and would scoop him up if I had the opportunity. He’s gonna make someone very happy.

    David Cook- if you ever read this- and if you ever come to Central New York- I will leave my husband for you. J/K. No. Really. I will. :P

    David Cook has everything. I can’t stop watching him (thank goodness for tivo) and now went and looked up his original audition. I agree with Melissa; lucky girl that ends up with him. By the way, I’m old enough to be his grandmother and don’t even like rock music in general unless it’s from my generation (60’s, 70’s).
