David Archuleta

By janeysa79@gmail.com (janey) It took only minutes of watching the concert to cement the idea that the Miami native, runner-up on the seventh season of American Idol, continues to be the seemingly shy and unassuming personality he revealed on the popular reality show. However, Archuleta -– who turns 19 on Dec. 28 –- also...

Although as one of the judges on American Idol proclaimed two seasons ago when Archuleta finished second – “David, you could sing the phone book” – his 90-minute, one encore show Sunday night at the Wells Fargo Center was anything but songs from the Yellow Pages.

By janeysa79@gmail.com (janey) SO, in spite of my loss for words (pshh!)…I just had to pop in here at The David Chronicles for a good old fashioned *Thud!* or two and some nice, mindless, blog-hogging blither after my second David, Live Experience. OH! Can’t leave THIS out: I WON an autographed teenie tiny teenie-bopper-...

By Meagan David Burger from the Salt Lake Tribune wrote a great review of David’s concert last night at Abravanel Hall in SLC, Utah! Regardless of David Archuleta’s performance Tuesday night at Abravanel Hall, the tweens and teenagers in the audience would still have shrieked and squealed in delight every time the 18-year-old Murray pop singer sang a note. David has an iTunes app available for download!  It’s called “David Archuleta Open Mic – Christmas From the Heart” and costs $1.99!  It’s designed for iPhones and iTouch cell phones, though.  Thanks to Kristyn for emailing us with the info and screencap!

By Meagan Nothing says Christmas like coming home. That’s where David Archuleta hopes he’ll be this year — where his heart is, in Murray, Utah. Keith built a studio for the Archuletas in their Murray house, where they recorded the recent holiday backing tracks and also the demos for shopping Archuleta to labels post-”American Idol.” The major lesson learned? Not being afraid to take risks, said Archuleta. When David Archuleta performed in Utah for the first time after he finished second in the 2008 season of “American Idol,” the concert sold out. In between, Archuleta is writing a memoir, tentatively titled Chords of Strength , a reference to the partial vocal paralysis he suffered in 2004 but has now fully recovered from.   [read the full post]

By TOfan Archuleta still calls Utah home By Scott Iwasaki, Deseret News He may hardly ever visit, but singer David Archuleta still calls Murray home. The “American Idol” seventh-season runner-up said he can be more himself in a smaller venue.

By noreply@blogger.com (palak) Tis the season where I prepare myself to do many blogs on Christmas releases – movies, music, books – but allow me to start a big early by talking about my favorite Star Search alum and American Idol Season 7 sweetheart, David Archuleta. What a talent he is – sweet, cuddly, and his smooth, youn...

By Archuleta Avenue Msia Neon Limelight was there at the concert and raved about David on twitter! David Archuleta doing OneRepublic’s Apologize is goose bump inducing. Haunting voice! Just amazing!                                        about from UberTwitter PEACE YA’LL! Extract:

By Meagan DoSomething.org is running a poll.  They want to know who inspired you to do something good!  Go here to vote for David! Ah, I’m loving their review. :) I can’t help but feel that David must be tired from taking so many epic journeys as I listen to “What Child Is This,” another gorgeous track. Boy wonder continues to put those amazing pipes to work by singing the foreign language songs “Riu Riu Chiu” & “Ave Maria,” the latter of which is just incredible & holds a particularly special place in my heart. David wraps things up with the album’s sole newly-written track “Melodies Of Christmas.” Though an unmistakable pop Christmas song, Archie does a heck of a job keeping the focus on his wonderful voice.   [read the full post]

By noreply@blogger.com (Dana) Singer David Archuleta has proven that being a runner-up on “American Idol” can be as lucrative as winning the show.

By Wincy “American Idol,” the show that gave him instant fame, cast only a faint shadow on the night, helped in part by the move from a glitzy Hollywood stage to dingy rock club. Only one song Archuleta performed on the show was reprised here, Robbie Williams’ “Angel,” the final song of the encore.

By Chris If you watch American Idol religiously like I do, then you definitely know who David Archuleta is. If you don’t watch the show, then you will become familiar with him soon. The second runner up, of last years Idol contestants, should have a long singing career ahead of him. The 18 year old singer from Miami played for a sold out crowd at the House Of Blues on Sunday. The crowd was full of very friendly moms with a slew of very excited children in tow. He sang his first single “Crush” and everyone sang along. He briefly left the stage, but came back for his encore. He sat at the piano and sang his two favorite songs. The first was “10,000 miles” originally by Vanessa Carlton. David sang it like the song was meant for him. He ended with a tearful version of “Angels”...   [read the full post]

By noreply@blogger.com (sabrina) David Archuleta—teen idol, puppy dog, sock puppet—he does it all. Honestly, I mean this when I say it: He was so charmingly unaffected, and so genuinely glad to be singing, that every time he grinned, you saw sheer pop innocence. And believe me, that was as refreshing as hell.

By noreply@blogger.com (Dana) Though I have yet to see “American Idol” winner David Cook alone in concert, after watching runner-up David Archuleta burn through a 90-minute set of pop songs Sunday night at the House of Blues, I’m inclined to say that America may have gotten it wrong last season when the majority voted f...

By Meagan David Archuleta may have settled for second place on the seventh season of “American Idol,” but he got a pretty good consolation prize: a career.

By noreply@blogger.com (Dana) However, this isn't to say that David Archuleta is a dud. 'Crush' is easily the best tune here, but the choruses of 'Barriers', 'My Hands' and 'Don't Let Go' soar in all the right places and the spunky 'Your Eyes Don't Lie' sounds a bit like a country-pop cover of 'You're So Vain'. In fact, the on...

By 24_7 team David Archuleta is extremely tired. He and last season’s “Idol” winner, David Cook, see each other frequently when they’re paired to perform at corporate events, and Archuleta reiterates that the scruffier David is like a big brother to him.

Statistically, Cook's album speaks for itself. His first and extremely popular single "The Time of My Life" debuted on the Billboard 200 at No. 3. The album also debuted at No. 1 on Top Digital Albums, giving American Idol its 210th No. 1 on a Billboard chart.

By 24_7 team “David Archuleta” is a work of great, syrupy charm, a dorky delight without obvious artifice, and without teeth.

By archuletafanscene “Crush,” Archie’s lead single, is a near-perfect pop tune that doesn’t suffer from the mind-numbing verse-chorus-verse blandness that plagues most of his contemporaries’ hits.

By Wincy Speaking of time crunches, it was 11 p.m. when I reminded Archuleta that his pal David Cook was about to perform on Saturday Night Live. “It’s on soon, I know!” he yelped. “Think they’ll make fun of me? I’m, like, an easy target. I’d be funny to make fun of, I’m so weird.”
