American Idol contestant David Cook performed the song "David Cook" on the March 4, 2008 episode of the hit televised singing competition.
Judges' Comments
- Randy: "You know what I love about that? You made a slightly emo song out of an extremely pop Lionel Richie song. That could be a single and be a hit."
- Paula: "I totally love it when you come on that stage because I know I'm in for a great surprise and great talent. That was fabulous and it should be a hit today. You make perfect choices. I believe that you are going to be a great shining star."
- Simon: "That was a very brave thing to do and I loved it. I like people who go out there and take a few risks. I think Lionel Richie will be very happy when he hears it. I really, really, hope that you'll be here next week."
