Rating: - Fantastic!!!
I listened to this album once through quietly at work before listening carefully to each of the tracks. First of all, the fact that David wrote or co-wrote 10 of the 12 tracks is amazing - and rare.

Rating: - Worth the Wait
I can't seem to stop listening to this new album by David Cook. It is all that I had hoped for from this artist. There is not a bad song on the album. I have a new favorite musician to add to my personal list.

Rating: - A great voice
He was my favorite from the beginning of Idol last season. So happy that his album is finally out. His voice sounds fabulous. He is a real professional and has fabulous technique. A real talent. I think he will find his sound even more as he is given the opportunity.
Rating: - Great first album
I own this album and really like it. Puts me more in the mood for a great day by the pool or summer road trip versus enjoying the snow today; however, it is a great first album and "true" to the David Cook everyone got to know on American Idol...there were no surprises...just good old fashion rock and roll. If you like Daughtry, Nickelback, etc. you would like this album.
