David Archuletta – “American Idol”
The Elijah Wood of the competition this year is 17-year-old David Archuleta from Murray, Utah. You can check out his MySpace page here. Apparently he’s a Capricorn.
He sang “You Better Shop Around” last night and did pretty well. This little sprite is one to watch. After all, he did win “Star Search” when he was a kid. Simon called his performance “the best performance of the night so far.”

DAVID IS BY FAR THE VERY BEST AND ANYONE WHO DOESN’T THINK SO IS TOTALLY JEALOUS AND ENVIOUS OF THIS YOUNG MAN’S TALENT.
HE IS SO POISED AND WELL MANNERED.

David-You truly have the voice of an angel. I picked you as the winner at your first audition and have wanted to just bring you home every time I see you perform and smile.(This is an old mother talking) Your parents must be so proud of you! Don’t let anyone or anything change who you really are-you are such an inspiration to all! Thank you for being true!

Even David C would admit…David A is truly talented and his future is and should be in music.
What a blessing to see such a wonderful, poised, and respectful, yound adult-to-be. Not too many around.
Yours truly,

I think David Archuletta is the Picasso of modern day music. I sincerely hope he is afforded every opportunity that David Cook is because he is
the superior singer and his manners are refreshing to see. He was the best of the best and never expected to win but should have. Keep going David, you made 44 million people believers from Day 1 so don’t let then down by not following your dreams and your destiny.

If Picasso had been a musician he definitely would’ve utilized his talents singing half-ass cover tunes on a TV game show. Heck, he might’ve even done some musical dinner theater.

David,
This year is the first time I have gotten hooked on watching American Idol. The first time I heard you sing, I was really taken by your vocal & performing talents. Following you through the final, I was hoping you would win but truly felt that yourself, David Cook, or Syesha Mercado was well deserving. I wanted you to win and I agree with Simon you truly out performed Mr. Cook at the final showdown. All three of you are my American Idols. My family and I have already bought tickets for the August 24th tour date in Houston, Texas. I am really looking forward to hearing you sing at the tour. Great wishes for a wonderful future and I will be looking for your recordings!

my daughter has a very good ear for music. she has never thought any of the american idols were just completly amazing. she and i both think you are so much more than amazing., we always have said there will never be any more singers like elvis bing crosby frank sinatra dean martin but i am willing to say that you proved us wrong and we are so happy you did. I went over to my daughters house this morning and she was cleaning house and she had your version of the long and winding road on she said she never really was that into that song before you sang it. so david archuletta you really were the real winner in the eyes of everyone who knows what a beautiful voice is. good luck to you sweetie and i do mean sweetie you have all it takes.
