David Cook - David Cook
It's been one long journey for season seven winner of American Idol, David Cook. Six months and one summer tour later Cook is ready to release his first major-label debut album. First single "Light On" has already peaked to #17 on the Billboard Hot 100 thanks to digital downloads and is now begining to pick up momentum on radio. As for the album Cook teamed with record producer Rob Cavaollo who has worked with artists such as Green Day, My Chemical Romance and more. The outcome a solid alternative rock effort filled with many of Cook's great traits that lead him to his victory. The album isn't anything out of this world but I found myself enjoying on the more emotinal tracks. Deff check this out and BUY YOUR COPY NOVEMBER 18TH!!

12. A Daily Anthem/Kiss On The Neck (Hidden Track)
this song is after "A Daily AntheM" on the same track
Put on a scent with some attitude
Put on a dress with some bite
Make up your skin like your favorite star
You're going out tonight
When everyone's a smoking gun
Just smile and hum along
So over it just a well-trained pack
The same old song
I can say
You were lost when you walked into the room
Such an old cliche
Hollywood's full of girls like you
With your backbone is stuck inside your purse
Your fairy tale couldn't get much worse
You're a broken bird and we all know
We can win you over, with just a kiss on the neck
You're blowing up like a hand grenade
Can't keep your foot on the brake
You're grinning because you got it made
Such a collasal fake
When everyone's under the gun
Just smile and hum along
You'll never win with a [back to a grave]
You got it all wrong
I can say
You were lost when you walked into the room
Such an old cliche
Hollywood's full of girls like you
With your backbone is stuck inside your purse
Your fairy tale couldn't get much worse
You're a broken bird and we all know
We can win you over, with just a kiss on the neck
Ooh
You're the sweetest thing I've seen
To think you were meant for me
And I got just one thing to say
With just a kiss on the neck
You can say
I was lost when I walked into the room
Such an old cliche
I can never get a girl like you
With my backbone stuck inside your purse
This fairy tale couldn't get much worse
I'm a broken man and you all know
You can win me over, with just a kiss on the neck
13. The Time Of My Life (Bonus Track)
David Cook is the major-label debut album (second overall) from seventh season American Idol winner David Cook. It will be released on November 18, 2008 in United States. It has produced a top twenty single, "Light On."
美國搖滾歌手,美國偶像第七季總冠軍,在創記錄的9750萬張觀眾投票中,大衛庫克David Cook贏得了56%的選票,以1200萬張的優勢領先對手David Archuleta奪冠。這是美偶史上第一個走搖滾風格的冠軍,也是第三位男性冠軍。
庫克出生於德州的休斯頓,並在密蘇里州的藍泉長大。他的父母是Beth (née Frye) 和 Stan Cook。庫克的弟弟Andrew就讀於密蘇里州立中央大學,主修小學教育專業。他的哥哥Adam同妻兒居住在印第安那州的Terre Haute。庫克的父母在他幼年離異,母親和Foraker結婚,父親則在印第安那州的印弟安納波里斯重新組織了家庭。
庫克很小的時候就顯露了對音樂的興趣,在12歲時收到了他的第一把吉他。庫克的歌唱始于小學二年級,他的音樂老師給了他在學校唱詩班的獨唱機會。在耶誕節和家長會,他經常有機會表演。在藍泉高級中學,庫克參演了音樂劇,包括The Music Man,West Side Story,Singin' in the Rain等。
高中時,他同樣渴望成為一個棒球運動員。再失去了對運動的興趣後,他把焦點轉移到音樂上。他得到了密蘇里州立中央大學的劇院獎學金,但是兩個學期後就失去了,並於2006年拿到了繪畫設計專業的畢業證。大學期間,他成為斐陶斐榮譽學會(Phi Sigma Kappa)一員。畢業後,他來到奧克拉荷馬州的塔爾薩,繼續他的音樂事業。他告訴他的家人:“我只想做我想做的,直到26歲應該找工作的時候”。
庫克於1999年到2006年擔任Axium的主唱兼吉他手。該樂隊是在他高一的時候和鼓手Bobby Kerr創辦的。一首該樂隊的作品“Hold”被全美第二大院線AMC娛樂選中,曾在全美的20000張螢幕上播放過。Axium曾被美國獨立樂隊競賽評為樂隊15強之一,並成為2004年坎薩斯城的最佳樂隊。
2006年Axium宣告解散。庫克來到了奧克拉荷馬州的塔爾薩的當地樂隊Midwest Kings,擔任吉他手、貝司手和和聲,並同樂隊灌錄一張EP: Incoherent with Desire to Move On.在此期間,他在Blank Slate和 Rehab Lounge等酒吧當服務生。
2006年,庫克發行了獨立唱片Analog Heart,並設計了其中的插圖。該專輯被Music Equals Life網站評為2006年度第四的CD。Analog Heart還成為了塔爾薩周的最佳塔爾薩(Absolute Best of Tulsa)單元的2007年度“最佳本地獨立唱片”。在參加美國偶像之前,他完成了第二張專輯的錄音工作。2008年的4月18日-20日,Analog Heart成為亞馬遜網站上“最暢銷MP3專輯榜”冠軍。但是很快就在美偶劇組的要求下下架。對庫克產生影響的音樂人有和平聖母樂隊Our Lady Peace、Alice In Chains、Big Wreck和Pearl Jam。
