  • David Cook Ameridol Idol Album to Download David Cook
    david cook ameridol idol album to download David Cook. David Roland Cook (born December 20, 1982 in Houston, Texas, US) is an American rock singer-songwriter, who rose to fame after winning the seventh season of the reality television show American Idol. Prior to Idol he released an album entitled Analog Heart; his post-Idol self-titled album, produced by Rob Cavallo, was released on November 18, 2008 and has been certified platinum by the RIAA, as were two singles from the album, "Light On" and "Time of My Life." A third single, "Come Back To Me," was certified gold. On June 28, 2011, Cook released his second major-label studio album, entitled This Loud Morning. Produced by Matt Serletic, the album consists of 14 tracks penned by Cook along with co-writers David Hodges, Ryan Tedder, Kevin Griffin and Marti Frederiksen, among others. The album title comes from a line in the song "Rapid Eye Movement" ? "Give me one more quiet night, before this loud morning gets it right, and does me in." On May 10, 2012, Cook debuted a new, independently released single, The Last Song I'll Write for You, on American Idol. Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter, Cook denied this was written with his former record company in mind, despite the fact it was his first new song after losing his recording contract with RCA. He insisted it was a break-up song that came together very quickly. (The Last Song I'll Write For You Songfacts). Early Music Career: David Cook formed a band with his friend Bobby Kerr while at high school.

  • But on David Cook's Latest EP, CHROMA
    Paul McCartney once sang, “Some people want to fill the world with silly love songs” but on David Cook’s latest EP, CHROMANCE, he isn’t one of them. While he has written his share, he decidedly took a different turn this time out. “I wanted this EP to feel like the darker side of love. I recently found some psychology textbooks from college and read about different forms of love – parental, platonic, romantic, obsessive. When most people, including me, write love songs, it’s usually “you and me against the world,” but I wanted to tap in to the murkier aspects of love people rarely talk about.” David Cook (and yes, he is the winner of American Idol’s Seventh Season) certainly knows his way around a good song. His first album, ANALOG HEART, came out pre-Idol, and his last album, DIGITAL VEIN, nicely bookended that chapter of Cook’s career. With CHROMANCE, he is starting fresh. “I was a ‘rock’ guy, but the further away I’ve gotten from that, the more I’ve opened up and found inspiration in the peripherals. I wouldn’t have had the courage earlier in my career, but now I have the confidence to go after the sound I want.” The outcome is pretty outstanding. The first single, released this summer, is “Gimme Heartbreak,” an up-tempo track that throws the listener right in to the record. A bit bluesy and a lot anthemic, Cook calls this song “the appetizer to the rest of the album,” singing about being in a relationship that isn’t the right one, but staying in it anyway, which sets the tone for CHROMANCE.
