Ha ha. Here’s a little comedy bit from Jimmy Kimmel’s monologue from tonight’s Jimmy Kimmell Live. I’ll have David Cook’s performance of “Light On” up in a bit…

Update: Videos from peeps who attended the show: Declaration,

“Light On” after the JUMP…, Little Lies, Avalanche, Kiss on the Neck, Barbasol.

 
  • stelladallas

    Hilarious!

  • CathyMK

    :clap_tb: LOL David Cook is such a good sport!

    Wonder if those girls are okay with his win yet? ;0)

  • hypertwink

    What gets me is that he matches the petulant tone of the girls when he grouses back, “I’m right here.” :lol_tb:

    Anyway, someone said on DCO that Jimmy seems to like David and I think I agree.

  • GEEK4VOCAB

    That’s absolutely hilarious! I freaking love him.

  • Jolene

    LMAO. OMG, this is awesome.
    There’s nothing I like more than David participating in comedy skits.
    Well, except for his music. (-;

    Rumor has it he did 5 songs at the Kimmel show: Declaration, LO, Little Lies, Avalanche and Kiss on the Neck.
    Those last two he’d never performed live before. I’m not expecting videos, but if anyone was at the taping and could tell us all there is to tell…

    PS – I read some other general Idol boards for reviews of tonight ep, and seems that vid of the Archie fan meltdown was a highlight for quite a few people. LMAO

  • FolkFan

    That? Was hilarious. The flinging of the popcorn. The petulant “I’m right here.” Ahh. Kimmel has had the best use of the video yet.

  • bjames

    HAHA. That’s awesome.

  • toma

    That is freaking hilarious!!!

    I love it when DC does skits. It’s a shame SNL didn’t go that route when he was there. This video is epic!

    It would have been too funny to see DC do a total melt down ala the girls. I adore how DC tells that girl “i’m right here!” lmao!! HILARIOUS!

  • bluejeans

    OMG. That was priceless. David so can pull off petulant 13 year old girl. :D

  • sunchick

    Hee. For a minute there I was thinking they were gonna insert Guillermo, and it ended up being Cook instead. Even better. :laugh_tb:

    Also, I am praying to the youtube gods that video shows up of Ava-freakin-lanche! And KISS. ON. THE. NECK.

  • Ashley19

    LOL! HILARIOUS!!! :)

  • Jolene

    Just watched LO. Awesome, awesome, awesome.

    God, I wish there’d be more footage from this concert. It looks amazing.

  • elisad

    HAHA, these girls are so famous now. I can’t believe AI used this video too.

    I want a video of Avalanche!!!

  • sunchick

    Ask and ye shall receive….
    Avalanche, y’all!
    :wub_tb:

  • Lera

    I agree with everyone so far that was very funny.

    I also loved how the peeps sang along to Light On, and it was clear it was a joy to see that!

  • elisad

    Ask and ye shall receiveà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦.
    Avalanche, yà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢all!

    Thank you thank you! I love you!

    BTW I watched The Notebook yesterday. Crap Ryan Gosling looks like Kyle. So much. So I just pretended it was Kyle in the movie all the way through. Really nice LOL.

  • movin2thabeet

    I just found Avalanche too! Even with the distance and all the talking in the background, it was still amazing. I can’t wait to see this live. Should make a great radio single too. I hope they release it at some point.

  • Lera

    One more thing, David’s voice was hoarse! Did you hear him at the end of LO when he said “Thank you so much?”

    ALW did say he was worried about his voice and I often wondered what he saw that I didn’t see.

  • sunchick

    Lera, I’ve seen/heard the man live fairly recently, acoustic, stripped down, and his voice was stronger than it was on AI. See: Man In The Box, Permanent, HOB

    Ohhh, this should assuage any fears…
    Little Lies from the mini concert tonight, with some fantastic vocals…

    *taps fingers waiting for Kiss on the Neck to surface*

  • Jolene

    Oh man, Avalanche sounds awesome even in soundcheck and from far away with background noise.
    Guh, I wish they would just upload the whole concert to the site. Or allow cameras. Damn.

    I’m still holding onto hope that someone managed to smuggle a camera inside for the show itself… we’ll see.

    ETA:

    Ohhh, this should assuage any fearsà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦
    Little Lies from the mini concert tonight, with some fantastic vocalsà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦

    Thank you thank you thank you!!!! YAY for Cook fans and their stealthy cameras! Wheeeeeee!
    OK, Now I’ll be greedy and hope for KOTN.

  • Lera

    Thank you Sunchick, I was worried for him. Hey I never heard him sing Little Lies before! How come I didn’t know he sang this song before? Also what song Kiss on the Neck? OMG where have I been?

  • Lera

    I’m amazed more so then ever before! I never noticed how he really can work the stage. I mean yeah he did on AI but wow, Little Lies…holy cow!

  • Jolene

    ….And we have struck gold. Kiss On The Neck!

  • Lera

    Kiss on the Neck isn’t on my CD I bought from Wally Mart!!!!!!!! What’s up with that?

  • Layla

    Real life has taken its toll but I try to catch up on my man’s (DC!) news here.

    Kiss on the Neck was fuckin awesome!!!!

    DC and the EEB will KILL on the college tour!

    Thanks to all for putting up the vids…saves me a shitload of time!!!

  • sunchick

    Awesome, now I can quit the youtube vigil. Jolene has found the holy wail. LOL

    Okay, they should just rename that song Death By Cookie, cuz GUH. :jittery_tb: :smoke_tb: *is dead*

    (Lera, it’s the hidden track at the end of ADAM. Look on the album credits and it will say ADAM is like 15 minutes long. Which, no, it’s not. After ADAM ends, fast forward to about 3:50 from the end and KOTN will start. )

  • Lera

    Um MJ, I just checked out Otto’s page and he said on it “”D DAY, watch AI 2nite!”

  • Jolene

    Kiss on the Neck isnà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t on my CD I bought from Wally Mart!!!!!!!! Whatà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s up with that?

    Lera, how long is track 12 on your CD? KOTN is a hidden track, and it’s found 8 minutes after A Daily Anthem ends.
    It should be on every hard copy of the CD, including the WalMart version. It is not on the iTunes and Amazon downloads.

    ETA: Sunchick said it better. LOL

  • PokeSmot

    Alrighty y’all, I was at Jimmy’s and unfortunately, the Sugar Cookie only performed Avalanche during sound check. I was in the second row for this mini-concert and I can tell y’all The Band has never sounded better on Declaration then they did tonite; I think they add a little something more to the end, cuz to me it sound a little different (i.e., a little harder, more electric guitar). Niel is friggin awesome on this song…Yeah, Niel. Let’s see…LO was first, then Declaration (Dave mentioned something about the Declaration Tour would be starting in late February in Miami (I don’t know if he was just pulling our legs on the Miami part though). Little Lies was third, and David sung this song beautifully (I’m crossing my fingers for I, Alone or Sober for the tour). Then we got “A Kiss On The Neck”; this beyotch, along with his last, but certainly not least, BarbaSol brought the “HAWTNESS, right there” (tm douchbag Randy).

    This was a great-ass mini-concert, but, damn that was too much standing up (got there at 4 pm, show didn’t start taping until 8pm. But hey, at least there was a Mall across the street and I was able to shop. So, I blame you David Cook for making me stand around for hours on end, until I was forced to have to go buy new shoes, and since it was BOGOHO, I got two pairs. Damn You, David Cook.

    Unfortunately, the Kimmel goons are camera nazi’s and we weren’t allowed cameras.

    ———————
    Peace Out & Poke Smot :smoke_tb:

  • Lera

    Thanks again Sunchick, you just turned into my MJ’s BFF lol

  • Lera

    OH crap it’s like 15 min! How did I miss this when it played? I’ve played it so many times too. Maybe I thought it was the end and fastforward or something. Oh David C the trickster!

  • Lera

    Why would Otto say Dday? *thinks to herself*

  • hypertwink

    Cookie looks so much younger and with the hair getting a little longer, he kinda now reminds me of pre-Dolly days, before The Haircut Heard Around The World. Which for me is good because I was kinda digging the pre-makeover David.

  • Jolene

    OK, The worry was unwarranted, obviously. So many great videos from the Kimmel show!
    Major SQUEEEE and THANK YOU to everyone who took the risk and filmed so we could all enjoy.
    Declaration
    Signing autographs and answering fan questions
    Bar-ba-sol (Lower quality)
    some more autographs.

    Pheee!

  • movin2thabeet

    Did y’all catch it on the autograph video where David said that they would be playing ALL the songs on the record on tour??? Yeah!!!!!

  • redridinghood

    KOTN is such an awesome, lively song! Wish I could see David on tour…

  • hypertwink

    The 1-2 punch of AI and Kimmel has resulted in LO and DCTR climbing iTunes and Amazon. Yay! :clap_tb: Hopefully, this will stem the bleed and rejuvenate sales.

  • GEEK4VOCAB

    Squeeee!!! I love his shirt. He looks and sounds so incredibly good. Even my taunting husband had to say he sounds great live.

  • Jolene

    The 1-2 punch of AI and Kimmel has resulted in LO and DCTR climbing iTunes and Amazon.

    It sure did! Bless AI, this is the highest either LO or the album have been in weeks, I believe. Here’s hoping this translates to a noticable bump in sales to ward off some of the January doldrums.

    David was magnifiscent on Kimmel last night. Really loved the interaction with the crowd on LO, he did great on it. I thought he looked wonderful and I like that he’s letting the hair grow a bit, it suits him.
    The other videos – KOTN should come with a warning label, and Little Lies as Cookified on Kimmel might be my new favorite song. That part where he slows it down only to explode into the chorus with the bare “Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies!”… Wow, that’s powerful stuff.

    And those videos of him signing autographs and interacting with the fans were pure awesomeness. All summer long through the tour I wanted him to get to the point where he could have his own shows with his own fans who came to see only him.
    I just loved seeing him get that, he was so accomodating and so visibly moved.

  • KarenLE67

    Can. Not. Wait. for tewer. What a thing to wake up to this morning, great way to start the day! Thanks to everyone who posted the links, and especially to everyone who posted the vids.

    Avalanche and KOTN were real surprise treats. Avalanche was as lovely as I hoped it coudl be, and KOTN, have the paramedics standing by, lots of ‘em, seriously. Declaration totally rocked (Kyle and Joey sounded great, really tight and confident). Light On really sounds like it’s finally settled into David’s voice now, he finally owns that song. And Little Lies – all I can say is Dave is such a Rock Star. That’s the kind of performance that makes those of us old enough to know better all stupidly fangirly. Gush *and* THUD.

    And to think, all that was happening while we were on here snarking away in chat over AI auditions. Honestly, who needs it, when we’ve got Dave and the EEB. Just confirms for me that I’ve got my Idol and somebody truly exceptional is goign to have to come along to get one text outta me.

  • hardkandy

    LOL, well that was very funny.

  • http://widyatarina.wordpress.com widz

    “I’M HERE!” LMAO. hahahaha

    :lol_tb: “I’m right here!!” Goofball! Love it.

  • IGetCranked

    The I’m right here.. comment .. LMBO

  • mary111

    DAMNNNN!!!! Love all the videos. Thanks for posting all of them. I just love this man!!

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/iamthepurplewalrus purplesmile

    Ahahahaha!!! I like Cookie today. :D

  • sma11ie

    Anyway, someone said on DCO that Jimmy seems to like David and I think I agree.

    Yeah, it’s really nice to get that sense, especially since Jimmy was making fun of AI the entire show– then again, he’s been doing that for years now, so that’s normal. DC’s never been one to take himself too seriously, so I think it helps Jimmy appreciate him. So I guess DC’s tour is called the Declaration Tour? That sounds so cool. I kind of feel like DC wanted to name the record that, but was turned down by the label. Boo on the label, that would’ve been an awesome name.

    Thanks everyone for all the vids. Avalanche! I hope the Jimmy Kimmel people post more than just LO and Declaration on their site, since HQ vids of KOTN and Little Lies would be amazing. Did anyone catch the Malcolm Gladwell interview where he talked about how people don’t achieve greatness in their field without logging 10,000 hours of hard work, or 10 years of ~4 hours a day? I thought that was interesting– DC’s been playing in bands for 10 years now… he really deserves this.

  • weareallinnocent

    “Welcome Back, David Cook!”

    Thanks to all for posting the vids and links!!! What would we do without you?!

    :thumbup_tb:

  • FolkFan

    Man, KotN was awesome. As were the other videos, but…. Yeah, KotN was awesome.

    Great that you got to go, Poke Smot.

  • SashaB

    OMG! That was hilarious.

    DC has got such great comedic timing. Hee. Thanks MJ. I hadn’t seen this yet.

    ETA:

    Avalanche sounds awesome. Thank you so much!
    Kiss on the Neck sounds incredible live. I think Breathe Tonight will be good, too. Just loving these huge Cookie crumbs this morning. Again, many thanks for all these links.

  • AInoob

    The crowd was awesome for David and the EEB and the guys sounded and played fabulously. Loved all the YTs turning up, Cook fans smuggling cameras FTW! David killed on all the songs, Avalanche and KOTN were real treats to hear. Flove KOTN, very phoar, and damn does that man know how to work the camera and his fans.

    SashaB, Breathe Tonight is currently my favorite song on the record so I would go apesh*t if I were to hear him sing it.

  • tinydcfan

    This site and you peeps just rock my DC world! Thanks so much to those of you who found and linked the JK vids – my gosh what a way to start the day! And the skit/vid was just fantastic LOL

  • kathrynTX

    Oh thank you all for the vids! WOOHOO! And YAY for snap shirts on Mr. Cook! Or off…heh. I stayed up til whatever-f-ing-o’clock last night cause I don’t have a DVR. And I’m SO glad I did! I KNEW they would sing more than one song – but I didn’t think they would do 5. They must be practicing for the USO tour! Yeah. Don’t they leave this Friday or so?

    So I haven’t had a chance yet to watch ALL the videos. NOW I remember that Fleetwood Mac song Little Lies! Yes, shall have to watch that. And KOTN. And all of them. I might have to put on a seatbelt at my desk at work though to prevent sliding into the floor in a puddle. GEE-ZUS, man, you are killing me. Killing me. Yes *thud*.

    Neal TEEEE-man FTMFW! Oh and “I’m right HERE!” SOOO much WIN here, no need to repeat it all, I suppose. I’ll just sit here, singing quietly to myself…..lalala……

    Where’s the dang TEWER SCHHHHEDUL boys? COME ON. Please. I’m dying here. DYING I tell you. They just get better every time they play. By the time I get to see them live, I don’t know if I’ll be able to handle IT.
    :clap_tb:

  • CathyMK

    David and the EEB looked and sounded great last night. And, let me just say that I am very much in favor of skinny jeans coming back in style. :smile2_ee:

  • kathrynTX

    Oh I forgot – YAY POKESMOT!! I am thrilled you got to see David and the EEB! Ok I’m jealous too. But ain’t they great live? I wanna SEEEEEEEEE! And hear. WAAAAAAAAAAH! OK I’m done now. Thanks for your patience.

    SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE at all of this! OK I’m done now…really.

  • serenade

    Those girls (and their parents) are probably going to enjoy getting their royalty checks in the mail everytime that clip airs on TV. Talk about getting mleage out of putting a video up on YouTube. And yeah, the girl who put the video up is way over it and she was concerned if they’d hurt Cook’s feelings at first when it started to get so much attention.

  • dante

    I am so freaking happy for DC – he sounds amazing as ever and looks so happy – I think he is just getting started and his fanbase will grow and grow. He definately has the “IT” factor in addition to the fabulous voice and great stage presence. This is gonna be a fun ride for all his fans.

  • http://www.myspace.com/veronique0882 llamacook

    Thanks for the videos. They were awesome and it makes me more determined to try and see him in concert. I confess I put them on my facebook so My friend Karl can see them. He’s in the Navy and in Kuwait. He just found out he is going to see David next week during the USO tour. So I’m giving Karl a preview. I still don’t know what I’m more jealous of Karl seeing David Cook or David Cook being near Karl. All I know is if Karl gets a picture with David Cook it will be the hottest picture ever

  • Michelle

    OMG, vids! Some of you guys are true ninjas, cause I tell you, they turned my purse inside out looking for a camera :P So props to your sneaking skills and THANKS!

    Nothing for me to add to what’s been said except BOYFRIEND BROUGHT THE SEXY. Yumm.

  • Sarah

    These are all just crazy good. Thanks for posting! Little Lies, wow. Never knew the song when Fleetwood Mac did it, was curious enough to look it up, and saw how much DC took it from its 80s-ethereal vibe to a stripped-raw almost-early-70s feel (for me, anyway). KOTN, amazing, and loved Avalanche.

  • http://www.myspace.com/wn780 k4dc

    I must just say about KOTN – oh, Lordy!

    And I was happy to see that he came out after the show to sign autographs. I am hoping the tour will make a stop somewhere in my general vicinity and that he’ll be doing some unofficial M&Gs before or after the show. I met him once on the AI tour, but once is never enough!!

  • cookcricket

    I just want to thank everyone who posted the tube vids! Oh and thank you mj for the others.
    I did watch this on TV last night. I panicked at first because my local station apparently shows Nightline at 12:05 EST and THEN JKL at 12:35.

    So anyway, I was hoping JKL would put up all of the songs on his site, but when I read someone’s recap they stated that after LO and Declaration, DC said something like, “now they’re turning the stage over to us.”.

    I do believe JKL’s site would get a lot more hits than usual if he had them all up…(perhaps?).

  • mary111

    Didnt see this one posted.

    http://meetthefamous.com/photos-videos/details.php?story=5240

    First one is David signing more autographs, if you go to the next page, it is David signing a car.

  • Barbariba

    And to think, all that was happening while we were on here snarking away in chat over AI auditions. Honestly, who needs it, when weà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢ve got Dave and the EEB. Just confirms for me that Ià ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢ve got my Idol and somebody truly exceptional is goign to have to come along to get one text outta me.

    Word!!!

  • luci

    What does EEB mean?

  • cookcricket

    Luci:
    A fan agreed made up name for the band. EEB = Easy on the Eyes Band, because well, they are.;) I’m not sure who originally came up with it, but I know it’s commonly referred to on DCO.

  • hypertwink

    Some also call them the BoUH…Band of Utter Hotness, I think.

  • ShariG

    Oh I knew this was on and I am so bummed out that I went to bed right after AI last night. Thank you for posting. I wish I had remembered. I hate to miss any opportunity to see David Cook.

  • ShariG

    Awww thanks for the videos. I love that he is able to put the screaming girls into perspective and have a little fun with it. Thought he did a great job on Light On and the band looked great, but I really want a new song from the CD. I love at least 10 of the cuts more than Light On. He has learned how to get through that demanding song though. Smart guy to let the audience sing a chorus so that he can catch his breathe. Love it.

  • cookcricket

    ShariG, I was on IM last night and told LG about this, but you weren’t there by then. :(

    So I was thinking about DC’s “look” (in light of the current audition rounds) which really, to me, doesn’t mean too much in the whole scheme of things.

    However, I have to say this:

    I didn’t like his faux hawk for auditions. I Did really like his look from ARN forward until the makeover. Then his new look grew on me and admittedly pretty quickly.

    Now, after watching this again and reading someone’s comment about his hair growing out, I really, really lurve this look! The plaid shirt and the growing out hair says to me more casual. Love it!!! That’s all.
