David Cook appeared on an interview via Skype with Walletpop.com to talk about his appearance on “Extreme Home Makeover” and also about the current status of his career.
The Season 7 winner has been able to muster three hit singles since that “Idol” finale: “Time of My Life,” “Light On” and “Come Back to Me.” I’ll tell you … he sure comes across as a genuine, likeable person … not full of himself at all, and a singer deserving of success.
Season four champ Carrie Underwood is going to host a two-hour variety special that will air on Fox in December and one of her musical guests will be another “Idol” champ – David Cook.
According to an Associated Press article, the tentative date is Dec. 7. She will perform new music from her new album (due out Nov. 3), some previous hits and also holiday classics.
Other musical guests include Dolly Parton and Brad Paisley.
I came across this video featuring David Cook and Carrie Underwood singing a duet to Fleetwood Mac’s “Your Own Way.” The video isn’t spectacular, but it does show that Cook and Underwood sound great together. This pairing was part of the grand opening of the new “American Idol Experience” attraction at Disney’s Hollywood Studios on February 12, 2009.

Last year’s “American Idol” winner David Cook has been moving up the charts with his new song “Light On.” You can watch the video to this tune on his website.
Remember last year’s great stage moment when he sang his version of Michael Jackson’s song “Billie Jean”? Still gives me chills! What a great performance.
Do you think anyone in this year’s lineup of “American Idol” finalists have the capability of performing like this?
