DCTR was released in my country, Finland, February 11th.
Today Radio YleX in Finland aired an interview which was made the same day the album was released.
This interview made me so happy and I thought I could share it with everyone.. sorry the questions are in Finnish but I'm sure you get the answers LOL.
It's amazing how well David understood the questions in Finnish though LOLOLOL
DC Interview on YleX Finland Feb 19th
Full Version: David Cook Interviewed In Finnish Radio
I especially love it when he talks about coming to perform to us and "his goal is to perform his songs live to EVERYONE who bought his album".
And when he says he wants to come here and meet people and put faces to names.. that one made me smile all day
I can't wait to show my face to him LOL!

A summary of the interview, written by blackkathy at DCO:
For those of you who can't hear it, Summary:
Starts with BBS in background (boy, the Finn's got it right!)
He's talking from Orlando and announces the Declaration tour dates, with hopes to expand and go "globa'l".
Proud of putting together the platinum record in limited time frame. and loves being released in Finland and wants to get out there and play everyone who bought the record (globally). (sneezes and apologizes).
Wants to play the record and meet people and put faces to names...is that you Viivi?
Kudos to Rob Cavallo and concentrating on being songwriter and KUDOS to 'team'
Interviewer gives kudos to Raine Mada, Johnny Reznik, etc.
Then ADAM plays in background, whilst David talks about great relations with co-writers and 'great drug' to collaborate with that calibre of artist.
Talks about Innocent and wishes he could have done it better ("off week") but acknowledgment to Our Lady Peace and that Raine appreciated him doing it.
Cut to TOML.
Idol an amazing experience and anxiety when he watches 2009. "This season should be as strong as any" always amazed at the talent out there.
Hurdle to go get over if IDOL image attached. Daughtry sold lots, Kelly Clarkson does great...the HURDLE gets small if you write and perform great music.
Misconception: NOT a golden ticket.
Actually: launching pad to get to do what you love. But that 's when the work starts.
Always be appreciative to the show.
cut to Mr. Sensitive (read with Finnish accent...delightful)

I know someone had problems opening it, most of downloaders have got it opened. Someone said it could depend on what Internet browser you use. Firefox didn't work, IE did. I got it opened in Firefox too so IDK.
