(RCA) David Cook releases a new video today and will return to American Idol tomorrow. First up, Cook will be premiering the new music video for his new single "The Last Goodbye" on iTunes today May 23rd. The video was directed by the acclaimed and award winning Nigel Dick (Britney Spears, Oasis, Nickelback, etc.) and shot in Malibu earlier this month.
