David Cook Sings ‘All I Really Need is You’ and ‘I’m Alive’

April 29, 2008 by  

Surprise, surprise – my favorite performances of the night were that of David Cook. He took on two of Neil Diamond’s less popular tunes – “All I Really Need is You” and “I’m Alive”. I’ll be watching these a few more times.

Am I blinded by love or was Cookie that good?

    All I Really Need Is You is one of my favorite Neil Diamond songs, and I think David knocked it out of the ballpark. I can’t wait to download his version.

    he really was that good.. in fact he was blazing hot… it’s just ridiculous… he’s like an established artist that wonders on the stage to perform…. incredible…. 12 songs performed.. and 1 bad song? which incidentally wasnt bad in fact was better than many other contestants best performance… this guy is just smokin… it’s outrageous!

    Well, we may be blinded by love but he WAS that good. Every single performance, every single song, just makes me drop my jaw in awe and shake my head in wonder. He’s THAT good.

    I love you -Give ME MY REMOTE. I know you are a real person but I just call you Give Me. I bookmark you site with DC songs every week – its the best out there and I love your comments too and tell all my friends about you.

    I am dying to know – what did you mean on the HELLO
    song where you wrote “If only he had brought a blind
    sculptor on stage.” I need to know what that means!

    Hi Julie H,
    It was a reference to the Lionel Richie video for Hello. Watch and learn.

    btw, I heart David Cook, but I can’t seem to get over Always Be My Baby. To me, this was one of the best performances in Idol history. Everything else he does pales in comparison.

    Funny when I first heard Always By My Baby, I was not that enamored of it, but on the watch back (okay about 50 watchbacks) I now adore it. But the whole thing with
    his brother being there and the tears sure did not hurt.
    I heart that boy a whole bunch.

    U-Tube and blog sites just make my already over- the- top
    school girl crush on him venture into Fan-girl territory.
    Who knew from So Happy Together he would evolve into
    this? I am still mystified.

    You are not blinded by love. He really is that good. I get chills from listening to him. He has the most fantastic way of making every single song sound current and better.

    He absolutely stands out in another league.

    I always appreciated David Cook’s talent but I was never a huge fan of his….until last night. I absolutely LOVED his second song last night and I really wanted to buy it on itunes but apparently they’re only releasing a studio recording of one of their 2 songs from this week and his is “I’m Alive”. Boo.

    Seriously!!!!! All I need is HIM!!!! I agree with you and everyone else who commented. He is ridiculously talented!!! I love him!!!

    if David Cook doesn’t win Idol, that show is screwed. The show will be a massive joke.

    David Cook is already an established star. Radio can not wait to start playing this dude. He is brilliant. And a genuis at rearranging songs….mad talent.
