David Cook Answers Your Questions – MTV Buzzworthy Blog
Videos are fun to post…so here is another one. David Cook answers questions from fans on MTV Buzzworthy Blog.
The big news bulletin? David is “thisclose” to getting a dog–a little scotty he’s going to name Dublin.
For those who can’t see the MTV video, here it is on You Tube courtesy of Jolene: Part 1 and Part 2.
BONUS UPDATE: David performs a very nice acoustic version of “Light On” at the WPLJ studios in New York on Tuesday. You can watch the video HERE or just listen to the audio below. Also throwing in DJ Race Taylor’s “recycled interview” using questions from an old Bruce Willis interview. Pretty funny.

2nd Bonus Update: Video from CNN. The interviewer is also named Cook, and they have a cute little exchange about that. She may be the only interviewer who asks David if he’s disappointed with the sales/chart performance of “Light On”. He says no, because he’s in it for the long haul. I tried to embed the video, but the code is wack, so you’ll have to watch the video HERE Maybe I’ll yoink it an upload in a bit.
3rd Bonus Update: David did an interview at 102.7 as well. Video of David performing “Light On” after the jump. There was a little interview, too.

Loved all the Cookie goodness! Thanks mj!
I think my favorite had to be the recycled interview at WPLJ. Hee
You can watch it here:

I think the difference is that he actually occasionally gets to sleep these days. He was charming after the Finale, for sure, but I also felt like he was so tired that he had to hold back a little bit, like if he spoke freely he might misspeak and get himself in trouble. Remember how he always had the perfect diplomatic answer then? He’s more sassy and unguarded these days, and lots more fun!
I’m with you. Though I started getting obsessed with DC by ABMB, and lost my mind during Top 2 and voted for the first time (for like 3 hours, no less!), it was really seeing his charm and wit during post-Idol media blitz that made me a goner. Watching his adorable tired flop on Leno right after the win, followed by his witty and well-handled/-spoken answers convinced me to seek out every last ounce of Cookie crumb in existence, and that was the day I lost all my free time to the Cookie shrine forever.
He was doing the look-down-and-don’t-make-eye-contact thing he did when singing Yo Face “to” Hillary. I think BF likes to turn on the charm and flirt a little when the subject either needs a bit winning over or just seems chill, but he seems to get a little uncomfortable when he has to face women who clearly floved him on Idol. I think it’s understandable, and totally endearing.
That’s the impression I got too. He was very “proper” and shy with that lady with the button on her shirt. He seemed a bit taken back by the gushing. Totally adorable. Hope he never loses that (whatever that is).
Well, they could always call the band Cookie and Cream. I know that’s kind of a silly name.
Thanks Lisa, but that link is only good in the states. Archie’s Buzzworthy showed up yesterday on youtube, so I expect this one will too before long. *hopes*
OK, 1st part is up. It’s taking really long to upload, but the 2nd part is on it’s way too…
Enjoy!
David Cook Buzzworthy Interview Pt. 01
The link works outside of the states, it’s working for me. For those who can’t see it, are you guys from Canada? I know canadians usually have more problems. If not, my advice is try again, because it works.
He’s so articulate and cool, isn’t he?
I got Cook’s cd earlier today and I listened to it a couple of times. Am I too late to comment on one song? I gotta say that I want to marry the song Avalanche. Listening to a manly voice singing about “rolling in your arms”? Hot. I love all the words that are related to the title- “crashing, falling, rush, crushed, swept, fumble”. It’s a gorgeous melody and vocal. So after listening to the song four times in a row I had my brother listen to it. He teaches guitar in a music store and he thought the song was crafted really well. He loved how at the end of the song they cut off the chorus in the middle of a measure and started up again with the drum rolls creating a tumbling efffect repeating the choruses- just like the title of the song with waves and waves of rushing melody. He’s learning the song on guitar now.
Anyway, I liked the MTV interview. They stepped out of the way and kept the camera rolling. Nice.
And finally:
David Cook Buzzworthy Interview Pt. 02
Enjoy!
Jocelin, I really enjoyed reading your take on Avalanche. It’s one of the songs I only discovered after a few listens, but now it’s one of my favorites. David’s voice on it is simply breath-taking, IMO.
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=9_3xfnm3TU4 Is a short but sweet interview with Elvis Duran.
is that guy Elvis Duran?! Seems more like some fanboy…
Dunno for sure. I’ve personally not met Elvis Duran. I was just reading the signs behind him.
I just looked up an image for Elvis Duran and the answer would be no. Maybe just someone who works for him. Elvis looks to be in his 50’s? Greying hair, stocky.
ETA.. .Scroll down to the bottom and you can see a couple of pics of Elvis Duran

Thanks Jolene, I’m going to post those links out front!
Oh Jocelin, ITA on Avalanche! This morning on my way to work, I just set the stereo on REPEAT on that song and played it about 6 times in a row. Of course, I can sing along too! Really well. In my car. Alone. Hee. Yes, I think that’s why I like it so much too, the words, the imagery and feelings he provokes just…by…singing…in…that…voice.
A couple or so months ago over a few different conversations, I referred to David Cook as CRASHING into my living room on Idol. And little did I know at that time, into my life. Well not PERSONALLY, but you know…. Like an avalanche, isn’t he? And his MUSIC. Hey, it’s all about the music.
Which brings me to something OT finally…really like the acoustic Light On. YAY acoustic Light On! YAY Neal. Nom nom nom. And as always, lovely interviews with Mr. Cook. He just rarely speaks a wrong word, does he? :wub_tb:
MJ: This got posted in the David Cook sales post, but I wasn’t sure if you’d see it there: DC’s AOL Sessions are up.
http://music.aol.com/video/light-on-aol-sessions/david-cook/2329695
Is there any chance someone could rip and upload the AOL music sessions? Unlike the MTV interview, appearantly this one really is blocked to all International fans.
Someone posted on DCO that, if you change the time on your computer to an American time zone, you can see the AOL Sessions.
Hi,
It is such a nice stuff and I really like it. Thank you so much for sharing.
