According to Nielsen Soundscan, David Cook has sold 942,000 digital downloads in the week ending Sunday, May 25th. In addition, Cook has 11 entries on Billboard’s Hot 100 singles chart, the most from a single artist since the Beatles put 14 on the chart in April 1964. Cook also has 14 tracks on Billboard’s Hot Digital Songs chart. The songs include Cook’s performances he did live on American Idol.

Cook will begin recording his debut album this summer, with a fall release planned.

Better than daughtry! ;)

I really hope he’ll be able to break from the idol moldings. He’s such a great talent (i’ve got his pre-idol stuff and it’s amazing).

He’s good. Deserves it. I knew he’d win AI, or at least if he didn’t would still be damn popular.

I wouldn’t say better than Daughtry…at least not yet.

I know his solo stuff and his Axium stuff is quite popular…probably moreso than Daughtry’s previous band Absent Element.

Although, I’m not completely sold on Cook yet. He still has a lot to prove.

Dayum!

I just listened to his full length AI songs today, and his previously recorded album “Analog Heart”… really amazing stuff.

I’ve known David for about 7 years now. In my opinion, he’s proved all that he’s needed to prove. And is better than Daughtry.

I say he needs to take some time off and go sign up for “Dancing With The Stars” before really getting his hands dirty and recording an album… I think it will give his career that extra boost it needs to start selling 1,000,000 downloads in a day… not a week! =)
