		<description>Laura:
You go girl!!  Maybe we should remind these Adam Lambert fans (ie glambert rocks) about how much Cook's A.I. songs sold in the two weeks it was available.  Over 1 million downloads in two weeks so his A.I. Songs/Album would have gone platinum in 2 weeks.  Don't think Adam can claim that nor Kris &amp; Adam combined.  It's probably a record if you ask me. However, again, I find it incredible that fans of one "runner-up" can actively go to A.I. winner sites and diss that person.  I love a lot of previous A.I. winners &amp; contestants and would never dream of comparing or "dissing" them.  Each person is unique, their sound unique &amp; it's a matter of taste. These glamberts are just OTT and you are right, it does reflect negatively on Adam Lambert.  People get turned off that kind of stuff.</description>

		<description>Hey, glambert rocks -- your boy sure couldn't break any of Cook's records from last year and actually neither did Kris.  Cook outsold both of them combined so how is Cook possibly riding Lambert's coattails??  Seriously, get a grip on reality and stick to your Lambert blogs if you're delusional.  You only reflect negatively on your favorite and, of course, Adam has even credited Cook for inspiring him to try out for Idol.  He can be gracious about it, too bad his fans can't be.</description>

		<description>David Cook is the dareman, riding his dark horse and gallopping his way to dream street! Where he stops... no one knows! As close to the stars as possible! Why?? Because David, My Last American Idol has done it HIS way! By writing, producing, choosing heavy hitters to assist...but most of all for singing his heart and soul out directly into the hearts and souls of all who listen! He is a refreshing, unbelievable talent who bares his emotions, wears his heart on his sleeve is is proud to be humble and honest! I, for one.. have found music again in a special way.. so thank you God for this blessing named David Cook, who just keeps on paying it forward with his heart, soul and passion.  Im lovin ALL that he is and know David Cook will be rocken worlds for many years to come! After a year and half, I believe his journey has taken on a whole NEW thunder!! And lets not forget just how gorgeous and sexy this MAN is!!  Does he even know his greatness? I sure do ~ the life I knew has forever changed! ~ ~ Carole ~ NYC</description>

		<description>I love David Cook so much that it is impossible to describe. He is the cleverest, most original, most talented and most interesting person American Idol ever had and will ever have. He is not only an outstanding singer/writer, his macho yet sensitive voice, those eyes and that smile just makes you feel every one of the words sang from his songs. He always make me feel like I just want to know him as a very special friend and how lucky his fans have all been that he came to join AI and we got to discover him. Never feel this way about any of the other idols even if they have had hits... somehow he is so special.</description>

		<description>Great interview &amp; good questions. What a down to earth nice guy he is.
 
In variably though, these interviews always attract people who have an agenda to diss the person who is being showcased.  Why go somewhere you aren't interested in?

glambert rocks:  David Cook riding on Adam's coatails? Old News?  Shakes head is disbelief.   You'll find that Cook will outsell and outlast Lambert after all is said and done. Cook is an artist &amp; a musician &amp; a song writer and he's an incredible dramatic tenor who knows not to go OTT if it doesn't call for it just for the affect. He is down to earth, hard working and not contraversial. He ranks up there with Kelly Clarkson, Daughtry &amp; Carrie Underwood when it comes to Idol winners &amp; runner-ups.  Adam didn't even win the competition &amp; at this point even Kris is getting more airplay on the radio than Adam. I find nothing original about Adam though he did put on a great Vegas act during the competition.</description>

		<description>to glambert rocks: there's a difference between flash-in-the-pan recognition and longevity. Cook has longevity. That's why he won AI. That's why his album went platinum in 3 months in a time when more people steal music than BUY it. That's why his shows sell out. That's why his album is the #1 debut album this year and in the top 7 up against superstars like Britney, Beyonce, Nickleback, etc. His boat will sail for a long time because he is a genuinely talented, hard-working musician/artist, not a flash-in-the-plan. Longevity... Cook will outsell and outlast Lambert. And in case you didn't actually read the RS article, Lambert admits to riding Cook's coat tails and good for him. He studied and copied from the best and at least it got him 2nd place this year.</description>

		<description>This was fun to read, and I don't even like American Idol. At all. It is nice to see fun questions asked, as if he's a real person...the reader can kind of connect on some level. Very well done...</description>
