David Cook tells us what it’s like to win American Idol

The A.V. Club: So you’re building up from week to week, and then you’re in the final. And you win American Idol and then what happens? You win a million dollars, right?

David Cook: [Laughs.] I’m sure at some point that check cleared. No, the next 36 hours after that were just a blur. Because I remember that night you go through press row and then there’s the after party and all that, and then I had like a super early call for press the next morning. We did The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. And I wish I could remember the intricacies of that, because I don’t. I mean, the ball’s rolling by the time you start moving. So I remember three days after that was my first writing session for the record, a week after that was my first rehearsal for the tour. So it was write, write, write, write, tour, tour, tour, tour. And then the tour started in July and we were on the road until September.

AVC: And was that your tour, or…?

DC: It was the Idols tour. I had two days off that whole summer. And they were travel days. And then you get off the road with the Idol tour and then you cross the t’s and dot the i’s on your solo record, and then you go through promo. And then we were on the road for all of 2009 for the solo tour.

AVC: That must have been fun to be on the Idol tour to get to hang out with everyone and not have the competition hanging over your head.

DC: It was a blast. To go out on an arena tour right after you’ve been on that show was pretty insane. We did two nights in my hometown of Kansas City, and we finished up in Tulsa, which was nice, and it’s just unreal. To go out on the road for a year with your own record. A hundred and fifty something shows—that were public—so it was a whirlwind. It was a lot of work but I can’t say it wasn’t fun.

Can we all take a moment to appreciate how frickin’ adorable KC Royals fanboy Dave is? :D

On Wednesday, I got to see my absolute favorite singer in the world live again. And after the show, he was chilling at the merch table, and I got to actually meet and talk to him, which was one of the greatest moments of my life. I was going to write a longer post about it, but I don’t think I can put into words how much this meant to me.

Sorry everyone! The lyric video was supposed to be exclusive to Yahoo Music for the first 24 hours, and that is why the YouTube video is private now.

I will be leaving the post with the YouTube video up, as I believe tomorrow it should be working, and I have made a post with the correct Yahoo Music link.
