David Cook takes NYC by storm once again!!
David Cook rocked the Nokia in Times Square NYC last Thursday. He just keeps getting better and hotter, it’s not right. I’m going to have to move to Antarctica to cool off…mercy, please David!!
The Band Green River Ordinance warmed up the room before DC came on stage. Lead singer, Josh Jenkins , was f-in HIGHlarioius! Charming as all get out – these guys are southern after all. Here they are -
Highlights:
Solo rendition of “Lie to Me” – He stops in the middle of the song, steps in front of the mike up to the edge of the stage, with one finger over his lips instructing the crowd to ssshhhhh sssshhh. In the still quiet, stripped of amplifiers, acapella he belts out the chorus, “so lie to me, tell me that we’re gonna be alright, lie to me and tell me that we’ll make it through the night…”
David sings, “don’t say a word, I’m ok with the silence” & so are we, yes, so are we.…WOW, shut the front door!! Awesomeness personified!! Loving him!! & his band, the David Cook band, sounded super-tight with new base guitarist.
His brother Andrew made a cameo.
How much do I love his song “Heroes”!!?? Let me count thy ways, #1 it’s my ringtone, #2 it gets 5 out of 5 stars in my itunes library, #3…, etc. & btw here’s a snippet…
Then DC brought back an old 80’s classic, “Died in your Arms” by Cutting Crew. The dude was still in diapers when this song came out – kudos to him for recognizing artists through the ages. Once again, he also performed Fleetwood Mac’s “tell me lies”.
David performed at GMA the following morning & Regis & Kelly. I don’t know how he could have possibly gotten any sleep given that his show ended at 11pm. But yet he managed to look bright eyed and bushy tailed at GMA in a pink and white plaid button-down long sleeved shirt leaving a few unbuttoned to reveal a hint of skin & highlight his neck…speaking of which, did I mention he sang “kiss on the neck”. Hearing David utter the word “kiss” is almost too much to take.
