"Idol's" David Cook, David Archuleta renew rivalry

2008-10-13T20:29:00.000-07:00

Some celebrity rivalries just never die, and that seems to be true of David Cook and David Archuleta. The battle of the Davids has morphed from the two singers’ friendly rivalry on the reality show “American Idol” to their careers as budding recording artists.

David Cook, the 25-year-old winner of “Idol” 2008, will release his debut album on Nov. 18, one week after runner-up David Archuleta, 17, releases his first album on Nov. 11. Cook won ”Idol” but Archuleta had many loyal fans, and it will be interesting to see whose album climbs the highest on record charts.

The lyrics for the songarchie.jpg include the lines: “Try to leave a light on when I’m gone/Something I rely on to get home” and “When the wires cross in my brain/You’ll start my heart again.”

The song was co-written by Chris Cornell, 44, former lead singer for the bands Soundgarden and Audioslave. “Light On” will play on airwaves on Wednesday, Widynowski said.

While the two Davids are heading into a battle this November — and both have attracted legions of fans – career’s after “Idol” have been a mixed bag of success for contestants over the years.

Blake Lewis, last year’s runner-up, was dropped by Arista Records, and last week the beat box singer announced to fans his tour had been cut short. But “Idol,” which is gearing up for its eighth season, has also had a few breakout stars — including Grammy-winning country star Carrie Underwood and pop singer Kelly Clarkson.

Cook-ing up tunes

2008-10-13T20:26:00.000-07:00

AMERICAN Idol winner David Cook, 25, who hails from Blue Springs, Missouri, will release his debut album on Nov 18, 2008. The first single, Light On, produced by Grammy-winning producer Rob Cavallo (Green Day, Kid Rock) was released on US radio and is now made available on iTunes.

Light On also premiered exclusively on AOL Music on its pop culture news site, PopEater.com.

Earlier this year, Cook had the biggest single premiere of the year on PopEater.com with The Time of My Life garnering more than one million streams in 24 hours.

Light On was co-written by one of rock music’s most influential innovators, Chris Cornell, lead singer and songwriter for Soundgarden and Audioslave, and acclaimed producer/songwriter Brian Howes, who has worked with superstar rock bands such as Hinder and Puddle of Mudd.

Cook has been busy in the studio with Cavallo, co-writing many of the upcoming album’s tracks alongside some of music’s hottest rock songwriters.

He also launched DavidCookOfficial.com, his official social networking site where fans can interact with him, his music and each other.

Fans can create their own profiles, make friends and contribute their own blogs, photos, videos and connect with other fans in their towns by various search functionalities. After only five days, it was already the #1 artiste site within the entire SonyBMG community.

sa·la·cious [suh-ley-shuhs] –adjective 1. lustful or lecherous. 2. (of writings, pictures, etc.) obscene; grossly indecent. i truly respect david cook, and i admire his many talents - but that doesn't stop me from having salacious thoughts about him on a regular basis; the man is sexy!

great article about Idol vocal coach extraordinaire debra byrd can be found here. check out what she had to say about david: She may be honest, but when asked about the strengths of this year's contestants, Byrd chose to speak about the group as a whole. "The common denominator is courage," Byrd said. "Because it takes a lot to stand on a stage in front of millions of people and be ridiculed.

Cook will win 'Idol' because Daughtry didn't.

Cook will win 'Idol' because Daughtry didn't.

great article from MSNBC. here's an excerpt. It would be easy to end this discussion quickly by saying David Cook will win because he's better. But instead, I'll use the balance of my time and say that Cook will win "American Idol" because Chris Daughtry didn't. "Idol" is still the top-rated show in the country despite the haters' attempts to knock it off its perch, but there's no question that

andrew cook turns 21 today. look out, world. in all seriousness, i think andrew rocks. not only did he convince david to audition, not only did he tell david to stay in it after he was the only one to get through, but he supported david completely throughout the whole process, right up until he was reminding the whole world that "that's my brother" as david was being bathed in confetti. so i

hands-down, one of my favorite interviews yet, just because of the really natural way david and jimmy riffed off each other. i stand by my contention that david was a celebrity in a former life. it's the only explanation. also, "i'm a baller, son" goes straight into the dc hall of fame. bwah.
