Rocco's Pop Revolution: Seen through the eyes of someone living it

D. Cook Does Not Want Your Life: Rocco & D Man… A Convoluted Tale

Posted on: February 6, 2011

Wow. A lot just happened to me in 10 minutes. I was happy, I was heart-broken, my heart healed, I got real serious, I talked about football (it’s the Super Bowl duh)…and then me and D Man made up.

Let me start from the beginning:

1) I saw on Twitter (because Twitter is the word of Oprah… sorry Facebook.. Mark Zuckerberg can suck it) that ItsMyT1me (my official D Man connoisseur) posted a video of D Man singing “Heroes”. I immediately got excited because I thought it was the Foo Fighter song “My Hero”.

It wasn’t. But thankfully, it wasn’t Mariah Carey’s “Hero” because that would have been too much for me to stand. I’d have to hang my new-found love for D Man on the coat hook to dry.

So anyway… it wasn’t… and not gonna lie, I was a little pissed. His song is good, but I love that Foo Fighter song (which is weird because I’m not a Foo Fighter fan.. more on that later). I decided to post the video anyway… because he’s wearing a treat hat. (Lee D. is mentally *high fiving* both Cook and I at this moment. And yes he reads this. Trust me.)

 

HAH! Treat hat... what you hiding under there buddy??

 

All good… Did you see the treat hat??

2) In my dismay I silently wondered if D Man has ever done the Foo Fighter song that I originally hoped it was.

I love the “My Hero” song because, and only because, it was in Varsity Blues. And I only like Varsity Blues because, and only because, Dawson Leery was in it, he had an accent and he threw a football at his father’s face.

And the best scene ever. On repeat.

I find excuses to fight with Mamadukes and Big D so I can say “I don’t want your life” (with the Foo Fighter song playing in the background of course). But it’s weird because I say it in that accent… and I’m not southern, at all. Really strange.

So, that’ mainly why I love that song… and D Man loves it too for that exact same reason. I’m pretty sure it’s the exact same reason.

 

I just don't want your life

 

I was going to make fun of him for crying.. but then I realized that’s mean and that would make me a hypocrite because 1) I cry all the time and 2) Lee D. was Mr. Waterworks at one point in his life.. and I didn’t make fun of him.

What I do want to make fun of are his pants… I think I can see the outline of his anatomy. He has jeggins are. What’s with these American Idol guys and their jeggins???

 

You can see everything in my pants

The fact that I can just type in “David Cook” in Google and find him in tight pants at any given time is the problem. That’s not even from the video above… that means he has more than one pair of ball hugging pants. That’s an issue. (sorry that was graphic). And look at his shoes.. he has alligator shoes on again. What am I gonna do with this dude??

 

I’d like to publicly thank Lee DeWyze (<—- full name… I’m in super serious mode) for never, ever wearing jeggins. You look great in your boy pants.

Anyway… D Man’s hair is A+ in that video.. it’s excellent. Really. It’s superb.

And he does this song a great justice… I’m glad he didn’t F it up… because I would never be able to watch VB again.. and I would never be able to say “I don’t want your life” in an accent again.

Thank you D Man. Thank you for making that song still sound great and epic.

 

Juuust going shopping for some jeggins

 

Oh my.

Love the pirate pantz :) Also any other jegging type leg coverings.

All pants on David Cook become jeggings, whether they started out that way or not. It’s just one of those (fortunate) mysteries of the universe :-)

lol.. 8th wonder of the world huh??

I think he had a special modification on some of his later pants in an attempt to prevent jeggings-transmogrification. A futile exercise (thank goodness).

Dave’s pants are legendary and I think I can speak for the majority of females out there that they never, EVER change.

Oh and if you think his are tight? You should check out Neal “I spray my pants on” Tiemann.

If you like the Foo Fighters song, My Hero, and want to see “the D Man” do it justice, you might want to catch David’s rendition of the song that he performed on his American Idol top three “hometown visit.” The following is the full performance which was not shown on Idol.

thanks!! i did see this in my google search. i like the acoustic version too!

“My Hero” was a special song, and he did identify it with his brother that has since passed away. Add to the fact that it was his first homecoming show in KC with the Idol Tour and you can see why he was a bit emotional. There were so many friends and family there. A special night, indeed.

Another reason we like him, he’s not afraid to show how he feels. A nice quality to be sure;)

oh im sure the homecoming is emotional. that’s sweet. he did a good job

Yes, thank you Lee DeWyze for never, ever, EVER wearing jeggins!! Oh and I totaaly agree Varsity Blues was only good cause Dawson Leery was in it!

everything about that statement is wonderful

even my miss spelling of totally?? lol

it was just the excitement over dawson leery. i understand lol

Yes, yes it was lol I so miss that show :(

that so did not work. lol. please delete…

i will :)

merci! sometimes it works, and sometimes it bites you. fotf.

OMG, I love, love, love this blog! That was the best 15 minutes I spent on line today, reading and watching these videos.

David’s pants are famous. They are currently on display in London and I’m not even kidding! David had women following him all over the country that summer just to see him in those pants (and no, believe it or not, I was not one of them LOL). And that haircut was my favorite of his many hairstyles. I even liked the subtle guyliner he wore on tour. Let’s see. Did I leave anything out? Oh yes, he wears tight teeshirts too. Can you tell I like the guy just a little bit? Oh and I have one more variation on David’s “My Hero” but I have to upload it. YT is not my friend anymore. It deleted all my videos which is why I’m reloading all these old ones. Anyway, I’ll come back and drop off the link to David’s last and best performance of My Hero, a rocking version with his band.

oh well im sorry YT sucks and deleted your videos… but im happy bc i see them pop up on twitter and watch them lol

and are you being serious about the pants on display in london??? lol i can’t tell. the jeggins are on display. oh my

im glad you loved this… and thanks to you and ur video it’s written. :)

I haven’t embedded a video before so this may or may not work but here it goes… here’s the only time in 154 shows that David sang My Hero on the Declaration Tour.

(oh and if it didn’t work, please delete. ;) Thanks)

it worked… thanks!!

I was there and this was BRILLIANT!

oooo be very careful there. D man’s pant are the things of sweet sweet dreams. We like our Rock Star in jeggins it is the only thing that keeps some of our hearts beating.
If you look at very many pics of D man you realize it really does not matter how tight/loose the pants are they always outline his anatomy. It is his curse (blessing) he must live with. Believe me he has tried to cover it (you can see the shirt tug in almost all videos) but to no avail it has a mind of it’s own. When he sings it sings too!
I too am glad Lee D does not wear jeggins, probably not for the same reasons, but I would like to request that he consider not wearing his pants so low on his ass. It makes his legs look even shorter than they are, causing a very disproportionate look. Not to mention he is coming very close to the “pants on the ground” category. (Sorry I know he is your fav but it had to be said.)

haha it’s ok… just two diff styles from two diff dudes…

and im starting to realize his pants are what people pray to at night lol
