| Silence between track 12 & 13 |
What's with the big gap of silence between tracks 12 & 13? First time I played the CD I thought it was my player--but it happens on all of them I try. C'mon, I didn't buy a CD to listen to quiet! In order to hear track 13 I have to advance it myself.
Anyone else have this problem??Rating: and 0 People found this review helpful. - Date: 2009-01-04 |
| Just plain old loved it |
I don't have a long indepth evaluation as some of the others do. All that I can say is that I love it. He has such a sexy and expressive voice. The music is good and the vocals are great. My personal favorite is The Time of my Life and Declaration. However, I think all the songs are just plain old good. I haven't bought any cd's or downloaded any music for a very long time because I haven't really connected with any music or artist like I have with David Cook. I'm expecting a whole range of music from him in the future. I think he has a great deal of talent and it will be a fun thing to watch it develop. Thanks David Cook for some good tunes.Rating: and 3 People found this review helpful. - Date: 2009-01-02 |

| Great voice . . . and not much else. |
I was a big David Cook fan ever since he sang that haunting rendition of Lionel Richie's "Hello" fairly early in the competition. I was really hoping he could overcome the typical fate of previous AI winners and put out something more than a cookie-cutter pop album. Instead, he put out a cookie-cutter "rock" album. T wanted to like this album so much, and even after listening to the less-than-impressive samples of it on this site, I still wanted it, and got it as a Christmas present. Now, I'm wishing I would have asked for the OTHER David's album since Archuletta - without having developed much of a musical identity on the show - somewhow managed to come out with a much more well-written and well-executed debut.
The problem with Cook's release? The songs. They're so poorly thrown together and mundane that you'd swear they were made up seconds before they were recorded [maybe they were, given the crazy AI tour schedule they were squeezd in between]. As other reviewers mentioned, most of the songs sound the same with hardly a memorable hook among them ["Heros" is somewhat catchy]. The song "Permanent" is easily the best of the bunch, but there's nothing on here I'd spend money downloading if I didn't already own the album. Cook could've sang the ingredients on a box of honey nut cheerios with equal results.
I WILL say this - David sings his face off on this album, and he sounds amazing. His strength and presence as a recording artist are just as powerful as the performance ability he displayed on the show. I know the pressure to strike while the iron is hot and put something out while you're still fresh in America's mind is key for an Idol winner, but rushing to get a cd out there just for the sake of getting it out without regard to content or uniqueness is a waste of a golden opportunity. Such is the cartch 22 of winning AI: you get the chance to make a record with a major label, but you only have a couple of months to make what other artists typically have up to year [sometimes more] to work on.
I hope that this very talented guy gets a chance to make a second album, and that he has time to make the interesting and diverse piece of work that he is definitely capable of.Rating: and 1 People found this review helpful. - Date: 2008-12-30 |
