David Cook - The Last Goodbye [Music Video Premiere]

Previously, David Cook debuted his music video for current single The Last Goodbye on iTunes and it has finally made its way to YouTube. The video for The Last Goodbye isn't exactly something you'd expect, but it is at the same time.

The video starts off all emo, which fits the song's theme, then it pans to Cook at the beach and a scene where he goes towards the water. But it's only after that do things start to get interesting. After that, Cook opens a newspaper with a headline: David Cook Feared Drowned while he remains oblivious to everything else around him. As his love interest calls the cops, his band hears of the news, before Cook suddenly jumps up and everything is all an illusion.

Inception? At least it's entertaining though I see no chance of this becoming a hit on the chart whatsoever.

Big News: David Cook announces The Quiet Night EP!

A slew of new David Cook news today - starting with the announcement of This Quiet Morning an EP of acoustic performances of songs from his upcoming sophomore album This Loud Morning. Nice play on words. The cover for the EP can be seen above. The EP already comes with the fan edition of This Loud Morning and is included in all of the different versions of the This Loud Morning pre-order at David’s Official Music Store.

In other Cook news, VH1 got on the set of Cook's music video for current single The Last Goodbye. Looks set to be pretty alright. I'm just afraid this entire era will flop seeing The Last Goodbye is hardly doing anything on the charts. Thank god we've got a month or so before the actual album release for something to save the album.

Big News: Listen to David Cook's The Last Goodbye!

AHHH DAVID COOK NEW MUSIC. I'll try to get a review up soon!

Big News: David Cook premieres album cover!

American Idol Season 7 winner has released the artwork for his sophomore album This Loud Morning and I absolutely love it. I can't wait to hear this record. The album was executive produced by Matt Serletic (Rob Thomas, Matchbox Twenty, Collective Soul) and This Loud Morning features tracks written and co-written by Cook along with many acclaimed songwriters including David Hodges, Ryan Tedder, Kevin Griffin and Marti Frederiksen.

"This album is the culmination of one of the loftiest endeavors I’ve ever undertaken. The end result is an album that I cannot wait to share with everyone," Cook says of the album.

Below is a teaser of his upcoming single The Last Goodbye.

Big News: David Cook to bring new music!

Coming this April, the wait for new David Cook music will officially be over. On the 19th, his brand new lead single from his upcoming sophomore album will be released. The single, The Last Goodbye, is co-written by Ryan Tedder, which shows Cookie doesn't want to stray too far away from the mainstream, as some of the tracks we've heard on behind the scenes footage all don't sound like they could be radio hits. Even though his self-titled debut album went platinum and shifted about 1.5 million copies in a span of an astonishing (in today's climate) 5 months, that was in 2008, before Gaga came on and brought, well, y'know. Dance freakin' music back.

Of course, with the timing of the release of the single, he'll probably debut it on Idol, and he's also confirmed to play the Farewell Song Don't You Forget (About Me) on Idol as well. Let's hope this does well. *crosses fingers*

Big News: David Cook premieres another video teaser

David Cook has premiered yet another video teaser in anticipation of his sophomore album which is set to be released this year. Earlier, it was revealed that David Cook had gone into the studio to work with Ryan Tedder and I came to a conclusion that Cook might've been pursuing a poppier direction. However, in this video teaser, it's obvious it's still going to be very rock-based.

I'm definitely really interested to see how this whole era pans out, especially since the first record went platinum in about 5 months, and fast forward to 2011 - pop/dance is the hottest craze right now. Only time will tell..

Big News: David Cook works with Ryan Tedder!

The producer we all love to hate - Ryan Tedder, apparently has worked with David Cook for his upcoming sophomore album. Oh dear, it could go in the way of Leona Lewis' Bleeding Love or the robotic production of Happy. But he is featured on Far East Movement's Rocketeer which is a guilty pleasure of mine currently.

Katie Krause, an Entertainment Host, Writer & Producer for Hollywire, has tweeted that Cook has finished tracking/mixing for the as-yet-untititled album, and that he wants to return to Idol and tour the world.

But the juicy news about working with Ryan Tedder came in the form of a later tweet where she said "Oh -- and he LOVED working with Ryan Tedder, said they shared a Tulsa connection with one another."

Now, this could be at least something to look forward to. When Ryan Tedder's good, he's really really good. And this could spell perhaps a poppier direction of Cook's new material? Either way, I'm excited.

Big News: David Cook releases video teaser!

To drum up a little excitement over his sophomore album with a tentative release date this year, David Cook's team have put together a little teaser of Cook recording in the studio. The two songs heard in the teaser are Goodbye to the Girl (David Cook, Andy Skib, Neal Tiemann) and Paper Heart (David Cook, Julian Emery, James Lawrence Irvin). By the way, Cook premiered Paper Heart at a gig he did late last year if you remember.. Cast your minds back.. Yeah. That's the one. And if the names Andy Skib and Neal Tiemann are unfamiliar to you, those are his bandmates.

Can't wait for this album!

Big News: Catch a clip of David Cook's upcoming album!
