This single is a disappointment.  All the hype from RCA and Cook himself leading up to its release had one thinking it was gonna be something original  - heck, in a recent Rolling Stone blurb, Cook even made comparisons to the material on this upcoming album to U2's The Joshua Tree and The Beatles White album... such hubris is deserving of scorn after listening to what clearly is a Cornell laced throwaway... I would much rather have Cornell singing it - then we'd have an authentic release from an authentic rocker.

I really wanted to like this single, but I just can't. David's uniqueness does not translate in the song. There is nothing separating this release from run of the mill Daughtry or Nickelback release - who he should be trying to separate himself from with a quickness. Aside from writing the song, there is way too much of Chris Cornell's vibe in it - the music sounds too much like Soundgarden, and if you close your eyes and listen closely, it sounds like Cornell is singing. If I wanted a Chris Cornell record, I would buy one from Chris Cornell. I didn't expect to hear David lose so much of what makes him special...his fans from the show will buy it in droves... I'm not so sure he will have such an easy sell to the public at large... I'm lowering my previous expectations for the album, and hope there is more authentic and substantive David Cook material in it.
