Light On - Some More Thoughts

I woke up with "Light On" in my head this morning. I've been listening to it this morning, a lot, to try and see what I really like about the song.

Well first, it's DAVID FUCKING COOK! Hello... *L* Just the fact it's him, his voice, makes it all better. I'm very proud of him (as weird as it sounds) and am really happy that he's finally realizing his dream

I'm still pretty peeved at how overproduced the song is. David's voice is so fucking GORGEOUS just on its own, there's really no need for any bells and whistles to enhance his voice. The magic is in his pure vocals, not in how a studio can make it sound.

Once past that... The other negative thing I have to say is about the glory notes. I love the glory notes, I really, really do, but I feel they are not well placed in the song, if that makes any sense. It's like who ever wrote the melody said to themselves, ok, we need a glory note.... here.... and another one.... there... Oh and there, too.... Ya know? It feels a bit forced to me.

Other than that... There are some real nice moments in there. I like how the song starts with the piano only. David's voice on that first verse is full of sadness, and I really can feel it in my bones. I love his growl throughout. The "You don't know how bad it feels" is chill inducing. THAT's a well placed glory note. The long sustained note that opens the guitar solo (a nice solo at that) is.... OMG, THAT is David Cook. I really love the bridge - the higher register, gravelly voice fits very well there. And the slowed down part???? *POOF* *THUD* *DEAD* By far my favorite part in this song. David shows off his voice without any bells nor whistles, and proves just how gorgeous it really is on its own.

I'm not too fond of how the song ends - it seems like it's cut off and not properly finished. But... That last note David holds, letting it slowly dying in his throat.... *POOF* all over again.

There, just some extra thoughts on the song... I can't say that I absolutely love it just yet, but it's growing on me...

Light On - Stream It Online!

Listen to it online here:

http://www.popeater.com/music/article/exclusive-david-cook-turns-the-light-on/

Well, I have to say, it is a bit surprising. I like it... But it'll need to grow on me a little. It's a departure from what he's done in the past, even from Analog Heart. It sounds more.... commercial, I guess. I was hoping he'd retain his indie flavor, but I guess he needs to sell albums, right? *L* Oh well, I'm sure it'll be played a whole lot on radio. It's VERY radio friendly, like Daughtry's first single "It's Not Over" was.

I feel the music and DC's voice is just a tiny bit overproduced - I like to hear his pure, beautiful voice without anything toying with it. I think that's what makes me not absolutely love it (the overdubbing on the chorus). Without the overdubbing, I think it would be much, much, much better. David's voice is beautiful and powerful enough on its own - no need for tricks to make it more "buyable". But his voice.... Damn his voice is good on this. I especially like the few glory notes and the long, sustained note, and then the slowed down part........ silky, sexy vocals, until his rocking voice explodes again. Very nice, DC, gawd I love his voice.

The tune is easy to listen to, and I already have the chorus stuck in my head, after only 3 listens. Major plus for radio airplay.

All in all, I am pleased. I would have preferred a song DC had a hand in co-writing to be the first single, but I guess I can't really complain. Although it might surprise a few, I think it was very smart to go with a ballad for the first single - David got noticed by the vast majority when he did "Hello" ... So I think giving the fans the longing, sexy, emotional song will work to DC's advantage.

“LIGHT ON” IS RELEASED TO RADIO THIS WEEK AND WILL PREMIERE EXCLUSIVELY ON AOL MUSIC ON WEDNESDAY

“LIGHT ON” IS RELEASED TO RADIO THIS WEEK AND WILL PREMIERE EXCLUSIVELY ON AOL MUSIC ON WEDNESDAY

David Cook's first single, “Light On,” produced by Grammy winning producer Rob Cavallo (Green Day, Kid Rock) is released radio this week and will be made available on iTunes on 9/30.

"Light On" will premiere exclusively on AOL Music on Wednesday, September 24, on AOL's 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.

Last week marked the launch of DavidCookOfficial.com, Cook’s official social networking site where fans can interact with David, 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.

Earlier this summer Cook set the record for the most new entries by an artist in the 50-year history of the Hot 100, with 11 songs entering the chart dated June 7, 2008. That broke the record of six new entries in one week. Cook's 11 songs were led by "The Time of My Life," which debuted at No. 3, making it the highest new entry of 2008. "The Time of My Life" debuted at No 1 on two other charts, the Hot Digital Songs and the Hot Digital Tracks.

25 year old David Cook hails from Blue Springs, Missouri.

David Cook New Single - Light On - Lyrics

David Cook shared the lyrics of his new single, "Light On" with us fans.


Light On

Never really said too much
Afraid it wouldn’t be enough
Just try to keep my spirits up
When there’s no point in grieving
Doesn’t matter anyway
Words could never make me stay
Words will never take my place
When you know I’m leaving

Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Something I rely on to get home
One I can feel at night
A naked light, a fire to keep me warm
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Even in the daylight, shine on
And when it’s late at night you can look inside
You won’t feel so alone

You know we’ve been down that road
What seems a thousand times before
My back to a closing door and my eyes to the seasons
That roll out underneath my heels
And you don’t know how bad it feels
To leave the only one that I have ever believed in

Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Something I rely on to get home
One I can feel at night
A naked light, a fire to keep me warm
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Even in the daylight, shine on
And when it’s late at night you can look inside
You won’t feel so alone

Sometimes it feels like we’ve run out of luck
When the signal keeps on breaking up
When the wires cross in my brain
You’ll start my heart again
When I come along

Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Something I rely on to get home
One I can feel at night
A naked light, a fire to keep me warm
Try to leave a light on when I’m gone
Even in the daylight, shine on
And when it’s late at night you can look inside
You won’t feel so alone

Canadian Idol Season 6 - Final Results

This is it! Tonight, whatever happens, Canada will have crowned its Canadian Idol. This season was quite special, with many very talented singers, artists and musicians. One can even argue, the most talented yet. Who will Canada choose as its Idol? Will it be Mitch Macdonald, Pitchy Mitchy, lover of local, pittoresque, folksy canadian music? Or will it be Theo Tams, the classically trained piano man with the amazing voice? Regardless of my preference, I think both would make great idols, as it is clear they love music, love canadian music and would represent the country very well.

But enough blah blah... On with the show!

We start with a medley with our Top 10... Can't Stop This Thing We Started by Bryan Adams. Yeah, more Bryan Adams!!!! All the idols have a little solo song. First Adam Castelli. Nice to see Sebastian Pigott singing "Down On The Corner", complete with a little funky dance... *L* Now it's Amberly Thiessen. Oh, Mark Day with Phil Collins "You'll Be in My Heart"... *L* Oh, and now Earl comes on stage on his skateboard, sunglasses on, sounding totally funky and soulful. LOVE IT!!!! Katherine St-Laurent with more 80's style rock... They really pigeonholed her... Now Mookie with a very british inspired song (I know it but can't remember the title now...). Mitch now.. Looking good with his shirt... Love the drums and the clapping. Wow, I'm loving him on this song!!! Theo with funky yellow glasses singing an Elton John song. *shakes head* And Drew, of course, with the rock song, singing Lenny Kravitz "Are You Gonna Go My Way". All the idols come back to finish with
Bryan Adams song again.

Ben talks to the judges now, and asked totally stupid filler questions... *sigh*

Looking back on all the people who auditioned, to the music of Simple Plan, Miss Me When I'm Gone.




Hedley takes the stage now to sing their latest single "Old School". Wow Jacob looks like... I don't know, a weird cross between an italian mob guy and Jesus? Regardless, he sounds really good. He's really worked on his voice and it shows. I really like the song!




Ben chats with Mitch, and they show live images of Porth Hood, NS. Wow, they interview Mitch's uncle who's from Michigan. He says that every Monday, he drives to Canada and then vote for Mitch from there. Now that is dedication.

And now a little segment with Jully Black. Meh. Oh, and she sings, too. Meh.




And now Ben interviews Theo Tams. They check in with Lethbridge AB. His grade 5 teacher is interviewed. Ben makes a fool of himself.... Segway to a montage of all the mentors and invited artists we saw on the show this year; Tom Jones, Bryan Adams, Anne Murray, John Legend, Simple Plan...




So far it is a pretty lukewarm finale....

Oh boy and now it's Mariah Carey.... *fast forward*




Ben and Farley travelled to Malawi. We are shown how poor the people there are, but also how full of hope they are. Unicef programs are in action there, and Ben and Farley see what's being done through those programs.

Quick segway to an inspirational song with the Top 10. Sebastian Pigott is so cute, and he sounds really good. He looks really happy.




Hey there Kurt Browning!!!

Brian Melo performs his latest single, "Back To Me". Sounding good...




We are all canadians... It's a cute segment and testament to canadian music, and how different it might be from one region to another, but how very canadian this love for music is. The contestants talk about how their hometown support was so important.

And for the final time, the Top 10 sing together. Home from Daughtry!!!! While I love the song, it's a bit strange that is what they chose to represent us canadians... Oh well.




The judges talk about Theo, how unforgettable his inital audition was - sweaty arm pits!!!! They talk about how they didn't know what kind of musician he really was, since he didn't play piano until Top 200, when he performed a song called "In a Life". Spectacular they say.

Theo now performs "Weak In The Knees", my very favorite he did during the season. Beautiful.

And now the judges talk about Mitch. Sass remembers she said that Mitch is the kind of person that sneaks in and wins the show... We'll see if she's right soon I guess! Mitch had a great instinct to choose the right song. Genuinely nice guy!

Mitch performs Love This Town once again. So great for him. Perfect.

After a look back on their season, Theo and Mitch perform together for the last time. Surprisingly their voices go well together.




Finally the results...

We learn that the Top 3 will head across the country on a 26 date tour, with guest appearances from the rest of the Top 10.

Canada voted...

And the next Canadian Idol is...

Theo Tams!!!!!

Wow, he's so emotional and crying and all... Mitch was a class act, smiling the whole way and congratulating Theo. Very nice to see.

Theo closes the show singing his single, "Sing".

Great season!!!!

Mavid Dance - American Idol Season 7 Tour - Sacramento, CA, July 9th 08

Thanks to dizneefanatic1973 for the video!

Canadian Idol - Season 6 - Top 2 - Final Performance

Here we go... The season is coming to an end and we are faced with the last night of performances.

Let's get to it, shall we?

John Legend and Hedley worked with the Top 2 this week. The idols will perform three songs each; one chosen by the judges, one chosen by the contestants and one that will potentially be the first single for the eventual winner.

Mitch Macdonald - Paris (Contestant Choice)
Seems like the sound mix is fucked up - his guitar is barely audible. Hum. Nevertheless, I thought this was a nice performance for Mitch. Nothing earth shattering, but nice and comfortable all the same. I didn't know the song, so this might play against him. I thought his voice was really good, much better than I've heard it be in the last few weeks.





Theo Tams - Good Mother (contestant choice)
Theo seemed awfully nervous, and it showed in his performance. However, his voice was as dynamic, as pure, as wonderful as it usually is. Very passionate performance, well executed, very, very touching. Really enjoyed that.

Round 1 - Theo




Mitch Macdonald - Where We Begin (Potential Single)

I suspect this was much better live than it appeared on TV. Pretty repetitive and well, boring.




Theo Tams - Sing (Potential Single)
Another not so great song, although it's better than what poor Mitch got... This one sounds much more radio friendly and ready... Theo's voice was drowned big time during the low parts and I just don't really care for the song.




Mitch Macdonald - If (judges choice)

A bit of an unusual choice from the judges. But it allowed Mitch to do his thing, so it's all good. It was a nice and touching performance, and it was kinda cool to see Mitch smiling throughout the performance, as if he was soaking everything from the experience up. Nicely done.




Theo Tams - I Wanna Know What Love Is (judges choice)

WTF choice if there is one. Theo sang the crap out of it tho. He really gave it his all...




I think the best performance for both contestant was the very first one they did. I was kinda disappointed about the show tonight - I was expecting a bit more from both. Who will win? Who knows... We'll see tomorrow....

Canadian Idol - Season 6 - Top 3 - Results

We will soon know who will be our Top 2....

The recap from last night's performances only solidified for me that I miss Earl, and that Theo was by far the stand out.

And now it's BRYAN ADAMS!!!! Singing "18 til I Die", and he's sounding as good as ever. YEAH!!!!! Bryan Adams is the shit!!!!




Bryan Adams sings "She's Got a Way", his brand new single. WOO HOOO!!! Love him!

And now we see the visits of the Top 3 when they went back home, with Drew and Theo.




Now it's Mitch's hometown visit. Wow, the crowd!

Oh, onto the results now... And of course, after chatting with the judges, Ben is cruel and makes us wait until after the break to reveal who goes home...




Alright, here we go...

And Drew is going home. He ends the night with his rendition of "Cuts Like a Knife", and it was again really great!




So Mitch and Theo are Top 2. Next week is the big final performance show, followed by the big finale!

Canadian Idol - Season 6 - Top 3 - Performances

I am torn coming into Top 3 week. I love, love, love Bryan Adams, so I am really looking forward to hearing his music on the show! But I have no fav left now that the Pigott Bros and Earl are gone. :( Well, ok, I like Theo. He's always entertaining and he's got a gorgeous voice. Ok, I like Theo. I want Theo to win. :)

Oh, but I won't dwell on that... It's Bryan Fucking Adams!!!! Gawd that guy has produce tons of hits, and I love them all. His old songs are still relevant and fun, and the good old sappy "Heaven" still get my eyes teary and my arms goosebumpy (yes it's a word, nah). And his newer songs are fun and great to sing along. What can I say? I love me some Bryan Adams! He's the rocker that got me hooked on rock, so I cannot help but have a special place in my heart for him.

"I believe that, if I had started anywhere else in the world (but here in Canada), I would not be where I am today" - gotta love him!!!!!

Drew Wright -Cuts Like a Knife
I am gonna come right out and say I did not want Drew to do well with this. He is no Bryan Adams! But... He did really, really, REALLY well with this song. Perfect for his voice, great rock song for him, and I have to admit I really love how he funked it up. Very nicely done! I only wish he would have started getting crazy earlier rather than just at the end (which I guess kinda summarize what Zack was saying). But great one for Drew!




Theo Tams - Heaven
I loved the fact that Bryan Adams was so impressed by Theo playing the piano and singing. The performance? Goosebumps. The crowd cannot shut up!!! WOW. Everything was absolutely amazing, except maybe a bit more power in the vocals during the bridge. The end was amazing... I thought he was done with the slowed down "Heaven"... But then the orchestra kicked in one last time... Took my breath away. I could have done without the runs at the very end tho... Wow, Theo keeps impressing me week after week. This was GORGEOUS!




Mitch Macdonald - Heat of The Night
This is a great song, but this was not a great performance. Mitch showed how limited his vocal range is, and how outside his comfort zone he was. Good on him for taking on a real rock song and not turning it folksy, but I think he would have benefitted from choosing a song that would have fitted his style better (like one of the newer songs, or even "Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman". Jake was right - angry doesn't work for Mitch.




They showed some clips of the Top 3 going back home a few weeks ago. And I was totally impressed by the size of the crowd at Mitch's homecoming. No wonder the guy is still in the running if he has that kind of support! Wow!

Drew Wright - I'm Ready
First, no one sings that song like Bryan Adams. No one has come close to producing a good version of it besides Greg Neufeld.



I'm sure those of you who know me are not surprised by this. *LOL*

Drew did a good job vocally, but I was left wanting a whole lot more. I found it pretty bland. I really wish he'd reached more on the chorus, like he did near the end with the "I'm Ready"'s. It was a nice vocal performance, and Drew seemed extremely comfortable singing that song, which is a huge plus. But, he really didn't take me the whole way with this song.




Theo Tams - When You're Gone
Meh. I enjoyed the singing with the backup singer, and that Theo got up from behind the piano, oups keyboard... But other than that, it was pretty... Meh. I liked the different rhythm he created for the song, but to me, this is a roll down your windows, drive fast, sing at the top of your lungs kinda song. Not so much with Theo's version.




Mitch Macdonald - When You Love Someone
It was much better than his first performance, much more in his comfort zone. I thought he sounded awfully whiny on it tho. The arrangement sounded really sloppy, and the hautbois (sorry don't know the word if english)? No, just no.




Best performance of the night: Without a doubt Theo with "Heaven"
Worst performance of the night: Without a doubt Mitch with "Heat of The Night"
Honorable mention: Drew with "Cuts Like a Knife"

I'm hoping it's Mithc's time to go home, but at this point, it's hard to tell for sure who will!!!

Tomorrow, Bryan Adams perform, woo hoo!
