“So take a minute just to breathe and think of everything you wanted.” - David Cook. I reviewed David Cook’s Analog Heart, a 2006 effort, a few days ago, after Cook became the first American Idol from the rock genre. I was delighted, because I rate David Cook, a much better singer than Bo Bice and Chris Daughtry. I sometimes get the notion that Daughtry overdoes it.
This effort, pre-Idol years, is average based on Cook’s newly-found standards. Still, I can’ help but like the first number, “Straight Ahead”, an upbeat rock track.
David Cook - Straight Ahead
I’ve got questions for you
You’ve got answers untrue
I can walk these circles all night long
Take a pill and sleep off
Everything you can think of
Walking all these circles to a song
Could you play me something new?
So take a minute just to breathe
And think of everything you wanted
And what you got instead
Is it a labor just to see
Around the left, the right, over my head
To straight ahead
Find a new way to feel right
Between this time a fistfight
I can read the circles ’round your eyes
This is life, this is no rhyme
Find a beat, find the right time
To organize the circles to a song
Could you play me something new?
