    AS good as this performance here is there is no preparing you for how incredible he is on the Broadway Stage! Not only his singing but his acting. He truly becomes Charlie Price on that stage. Kudos David Cook!

    I've been enthusiastically attending David Cook shows for the last 8 years, and was able to see him in Kinky Boots April 7. I expected him to do well in the show, but was delighted and charmed by how excellent his performance is.

    Saw his 2nd to last show on Sat afternoon.. He is real deal. So good!! He can act and he blows the roof off when he does this song. Totally impressed

  • @TabrisFruLar
    @TabrisFruLar Před 6 lety +14

    To me it is the best song of the whole show. Along with “history of wrong guys”.
    And he made it his own.
    The “so-o-o-oul” close to the end is great.
    Can’t wait to watch him live next week! He rocked it.
    Made the song his own.

    Wow, thank you show much for sharing this interview and David Cook's rendition of Soul Of A Man! So excited to see him in this role live in 10 days. Love the DC growl or grit whatever you call it that creeps into this song close to the end.

  • @03pattie1972
    @03pattie1972 Před 6 lety +20

    Damn, with that clean shaven face, and beanie I swear he looks younger than when he won Idol 10 yrs ago!

    • @janafrazier5834
      @janafrazier5834 Před 5 lety

      yes, that's true. but when he isn't wearing a hat you can see that he wears his hair in a way that makes him look much older than 36. it is shaven to the scalp at the sides and the top hair is pushed way up off his head.

    • @janafrazier5834
      @janafrazier5834 Před 5 lety

      And when he has a beard he lets it get too long and scruffy and it is grey.

  • @reginaizar3094
    @reginaizar3094 Před 4 lety +4

    Having watched him as a rock star, I notice his facial mannerism while singing but now on this video, him doing Broadway the facial mannerism wasn't showing. Yet, I watched another video of him just before this (the Big Slick) the mannerism was there. It only shows he's a good theater talent and vocals haven't changed too, as good as ever. He's one those few singers with the best vibrato.

  • @harleylaufeyson6136
    @harleylaufeyson6136 Před 6 lety +4

    David looks different ever since I saw him on American Idol centuries ago. The sound is still the original,Brendon Urie’s (honestly my personal favorite) is the only one that differs

    • @03pattie1972
      @03pattie1972 Před 6 lety +2

      Lol, this is not his usual look these days. Check out David Cook Official for a current profile pic. It's amazing what a shave and different hairstyle can do!

  • @katiemann4837
    @katiemann4837 Před 6 lety +3

    He looks so different! Not only does he not have a beard anymore but his lips look different. I mean, can facial hair really make you look that different??

    • @03pattie1972
      @03pattie1972 Před 6 lety +2

      Yes it sure can!

    • @janafrazier5834
      @janafrazier5834 Před 5 lety

      Without his hat he really looks different. The way he wears his hair makes him look much older then 36.

  • @dsl996
    @dsl996 Před 6 lety +12

    Sounds just like Brendon Urie but with far better range and stamina meaning he can hit all the notes with ease

    • @happyredpanda
      @happyredpanda Před 6 lety +9

      Brendon is great too, but I think David has excellent breathing control and beautiful phrasing. He also did an acoustic rendition, with both qualities evident - and that is while sitting down and playing the guitar - czcams.com/video/pny0qZnzQW0/video.html

    • @dsl996
      @dsl996 Před 6 lety +6

      I agree! At the start of his run Brendon was fantastic but you could really hear he was struggling towards the end as he was slipping into falsetto quite often and dropping the octave very quickly on the final note of Soul of a Man. Just makes you realise how talented some of the people playing this role are to be able to do it 8 times a week for a year without faltering

    • @happyredpanda
      @happyredpanda Před 6 lety +1

      David's returning to Kinky Boots, yay!!! Thought you might like this, I posted a recording I did, live from Broadway - t.co/7w3kmQfCNJ

    I'm bad news, a
    black and blue-ser
    who's a loser
    a merry-go-round spiraling down
    I'm all used up
    chafed and chewed-up
    who's just screwed up
    the same old Charlie hitting the ground
    'cause I'll never be the
    soul of a man, noble and wise
    like the soul of a man
    who lifted me high
    like the soul of a man
    heroic and true
    like the soul of man
    that I looked up to
    what else could I do?
    stupid hubris
    no excuses
    I blew my fuses
    I guess I'm a ruse in my father's shoes
    not amusing, no confusing
    this streak of losing
    totally brutal and useless, too
    how can I be the soul of a man
    noble and wise
    like the soul of a man
    who lifted me high
    like the soul of a man
    heroic and true
    like the soul of a man
    that I looked up to
    what else could I...
    Just when I'm reaching for that rung at the top
    I'm that broken heel
    unsteady and ready
    ready to drop
    when will I be the
    soul of a man
    noble and wise
    like the soul of a man
    who lifted me high
    soul of a man
    heroic and true
    like the soul of a man
    that I looked up to
    what else could I do?
    (soul... of a man)
    I'll never be
    no I'll never be
    I have gone and let you down
    No, soul, soul of a man
    Here comes that familiar sound
    same old Charlie hitting the ground

      @happyredpanda Před 6 lety +2

      I don't think he does, at all. Listen to him as recorded live on the stage: t.co/7w3kmQfCNJ Both Brendon & David are great at singing but David has impressed a lot of people with his acting, he has shown an emotional depth that hasn't been seen in most of the Charlie's so far.

    • @jack_mtg1248

    • @natashaj9455
      @natashaj9455 Před 6 lety +4

      I think for Charlie this is the best song in the play. While there are other songs in the play that I think that are more powerful like not my fathers son, but for Charlie this is the best song for his character.

      @03pattie1972 Před 5 lety +2

      Well if you haven't seen him on that stage you're missing out. TBH I didn't even know who BU was until all the negative comments by BU fans started showing up on every David Cook video. Not only his but there were brutal ones on Stark Sands and others as well. Yes BU can sing, but is he the best Charlie? That is subjective. Can't wait till you all show up on Mark Ballas's vids since he is now the new Charlie Price. I'm sure BU appreciates how his fans belittle every new artist that dares take on this challenging role NOT.

    • @teenie36214
      @teenie36214 Před 6 lety +5

      sailorvvv Vocally I think it was his best. Some of the notes he hit were cleaner than in his other performances like Billie Jean. He was a theater major in college but then switched to graphic design. It’s true that he was known on the show as a rocker or pop/rock or whatever but he’s still fairly versatile. Simon, of course, didn’t like his performance of Music Of The Night but that was one time I personally didn’t listen to Simon lol
