Pacmee Update!

So according to Google Maps, it’ll only take about 40 days by car and kayak to get to Malaysia from where I live…Unfortunately, that’s not fast enough to make it to David’s concert.

Fan fare puzzles Idol runner-up
David Archuleta, who was in town to promote his self-titled debut album, found it scary when a fan tried to kiss him

The odd gifts American Idol 7 runner-up David Archuleta has received from fans include an avocado slicer and an egg slicer.

The 18-year-old, looking refreshed and energetic in a casual getup of green checked shirt and jeans despite a long flight from the United States, says: ‘I received them from two different fans in two different states, and I was like, ‘erm…’.

‘I couldn’t figure out why my fans would give me such stuff.’

Other fans have tried to demonstrate their affections more explicitly. At an interview at the Ritz-Carlton hotel on Monday morning, the boyish-looking singer recalls one fan who grabbed and tried to kiss him: ‘I tried to push her away without sounding rude, but she just wouldn’t let me go. It was pretty scary and crazy.’

Archuleta, who was in town to promote his self-titled debut album released in the United States last year, held a showcase at Illuma shopping mall at Bugis yesterday evening.

He leaves for Malaysia today as part of his Asia tour.

His success today belies an early health scare which threatened to end his singing career at the age of 13.

The Miami-born singer suffered from partial vocal paralysis, affecting his ability to speak and sing. He had to undergo vocal therapy for a few years before he could sing again.

For the young boy who loves singing, it was a very frustrating period.

He says: ‘I was really distraught. At that time, I was thinking of doing music professionally and wondering what I could do to get closer to that dream, and that had to happen to me.

‘Although it was a rough time, I am glad that it happened though, because I pushed myself very hard to overcome those trials and I became a stronger person after that.’

He credits American Idol for shaping him as a professional although he adds that life as a contestant on the hit reality show was stressful.

‘It was a lot more intense on the show and it was like boot camp. But it was good because a lot of my training and growth came from there.’

The singer, who was in town alone without his family, will be busy this year.

After his Asia tour, he will tour England as the opening act for British pop rock band McFly. In the later half of the year, he will start work on his second album.

He says that he would love to work with singers Natasha Bedingfield and Jason Mraz, among others.

He says: ‘Natasha sings pop songs in a very sophisticated way while Jason is so amazing. However, I need to learn more and improve further before I can work with him because he is such a genius.’

The singer, who lives in Utah, says of Singapore: ‘I love the warm weather here. Everyone here is so friendly and nice and I want to thank the fans who came to the airport late at night to show me their support.’

Thanks E Tan!

Archuleta is Coming to Town!

From Malaysia’s TheStar:

PETALING JAYA: Following in the footsteps of American Idol alumni Elliot Yamin and Chris Daughtry, David Archuleta comes to Kuala Lumpur tonight.

He will arrive at 7.40pm to promote his self-titled debut album.

During his four-day stay in the country, Archuleta will do radio and press interviews, make a surprise visit to one lucky school in Petaling Jaya, as well as perform at the “David Archuleta Live in KL” showcase at the Sunway Lagoon Amphitheatre on April 11.

Tickets for the showcase were distributed via sales of his album and they were snapped up almost immediately after they were released.

According to Adrian Lim, managing director of Sony Music Entertainment (M) Sdn Bhd, Archuleta’s trip to Malaysia is only one of two Asian stops.

The Electric New Paper!

Stepping out on his own
American Idol runner-up David Archuleta is 18 now and no longer needs his parents to accompany him
By Juliana June Rasul
April 08, 2009

np_show_1_current_jrdavid_8t

THAT adorable little boy whose cheeks you kept wanting to pinch during last year’s American Idol?

Well, he’s all grown up.

Amid smiles and candid laughter, Idol runner-up David Archuleta was full of wisdom yesterday when he met reporters at the Ritz Carlton hotel.

He is in town as part of a promotional tour in Asia, and will sign autographs at 7pm today at newly-opened Iluma shopping mall, opposite Bugis Junction.

After losing out to rocker David Cook in last year’s finals, Archuleta signed a deal with Jive Records, home to Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake, and released his debut last November.

He has been on tour in the US since late February.

While his posts to fans and video blogs on tour are usually perky, he has obviously learnt enough about the music industry in the year since Idol to be realistic about it.

He’s had first-hand experience of how dirty the business can be, thanks to gossip mongers who speculated during last year’s Idol that Archuleta’s father, Jeff, was a control freak.

Among the rumours spread by gossip sites like TMZ were that daddy Archuleta was choosing all the songs for him and wouldn’t let him have water until he perfected his songs.

No idea

Said Archuleta: ‘I didn’t even know about it until people started asking me about it during interviews.

‘I was just being excited about the show and singing for everyone, and then suddenly people were asking me questions about whether my dad was abusing me.’

He added that others may have misconstrued his father’s assistance as ’stage managing’.

‘I needed him to help, because most of my free time, I was doing schoolwork.’

He noted that singers like Justin Timberlake and Usher are also assisted by their mothers.

At 18, he no longer has to be accompanied by his parents the way it was on Idol.

Teenage girls, if you think that means he’s game for some hanky panky, think again.

The singer, who comes from a Mormon family, is very much grounded and has no plans to join the Miley Cyruses and Vanessa Hudgens of the burgeoning tween industry.

‘I’m always amazed to meet artistes who are incredibly humble. It’s like, ‘Wow, you’re human!’ he said.

While he doesn’t bring his family on tour with him, he’s not exactly straining at a leash trying to get out and be wild.

Family, he says, is still No1.

‘The (record) label looks out for you as long as you’re making money for them,’ he said.

‘My family understands why I do this, and it’s not about making money. They’ll always be there to look out for me, no matter what.’

Although he states oft-repeated maxims about being a young star in show business – having his parents’ support, the importance of having a back-up plan – it is the way he says it, with eyes shining, that makes one believe that he’s not just repeating a PR line.

Don’t Let Go Poll

Fran: Moving this little baby up to my post. May I just say that Don’t Let Go has been my favorite song since before we knew David wrote it…as in when all we had were 30 second clips!

Don’t Let Go freaks can blame Pastel for this one.  She had one of these videos in mind and had to share.  This song had really moved up quite a few spots on my ranked list of DA songs after seeing it live.  He is INTENSE.  “And I know how to save a life…”  Sorry, but gotta THUD here for a sec.  He just breathes this song.  As one of the commenters on the Sayreville video says, “I wonder what it feels like to go where he goes.”  And then BAM!  He’s smiley and happy.  Dang.

Sayreville

I’m a bit speechless after this one.

So sideways (SOMEBODY FIX THIS VIDEEEEEOOOOO!!!) but wow.  Audio is fantastic, “I know how to save a life,” intense and close-up.  WIN!

Oft overlooked Pocatello.  He looks thin here.  Is he eating?  Sorry…Pretty good bass on this one.  Give it a shot

    Thanks Fran!!! all of this Archu-Pore goodness is killing me!

  2. jana RENO!!! says:

    hi Candy!!

  3. Attitude/Candy says:

    Fran…Speechless after Sayreville…Im sweating! LOL

  4. Kristin says:

    A fan tried to kiss David? Yikes! Apparently that fan doesn’t know David very well. What an odd situation to get out of and still be polite, but I’m sure David handled it perfectly.

  5. Attitude/Candy says:

    Hi Jana, hows my west coast friend doing?

  6. Kristin says:

    Yay Yahoo for dedicating a page to David’s face! lol Shouldn’t that be the norm?

  7. Attitude/Candy says:

    4/Kristin-Exactly. He handles everything so well, even if he is dying inside. Things that would freak the average person, just dont seem to bother him, well not that we can see.

  8. ♥ heartsong ♫ says:

    FRAN! You are soooo rocking our late night updates! Thanks!

  9. pastel says:

    Hey Frannie….nice to see you this time at night!

    We were just asking about the RazerTV youtube vids. you must have been reading our minds! Gotta run to make them MP4’s! Gotta love my DVDVideoSoft.

  10. JANA~ SUMMERTIME~✰✰✰ says:

    Just fine!! So you like Sayerville, huh? A big favorite here. I may have had a seizure the first time I saw it..or a black-out, can’t quite remember.

  11. Attitude/Candy says:

    For some reason I really like that silly flower shop video, David and beautiful flowers just seem to go together!

  12. ♥ heartsong ♫ says:

    Kristin – Did that just make you a little angry at that girl? Have a little respect for David! He’ll decide when it’s time to be kissed!

  13. pastel says:

    Candy…it’s only gonna get worse with Dont Let Go. David got more “surreal” as the concerts went on…but Sayreville is still my fav.

  14. Attitude/Candy says:

    10/Jana Ha or all of the above!!

  15. JANA~ SUMMERTIME~✰✰✰ says:

    Fran~Thanks for that top pic…very, very, very Archuletaful!!

  16. jana RENO!!! says:

    pastel~Are we calling it ’surreal?” haha

  17. ♥ heartsong ♫ says:

    Me too pastel! Gotta have that interview on my ipod!

    Jana – You’re freaking me out with the changing name……

  18. Kristin says:

    Candy-You’re right. . .he is Mr. Calm as a Cucumber Archuleta!

    heartsong-No, it didn’t make me angry. Just a bit flustered that someone wouldn’t have the respect and doesn’t know him enough to know better.

  19. Attitude/Candy says:

    13/Pastel, my fav isnt on the list. OKC, he was smoldering that night, Hmmm maybe thats why it isnt on there!!

  20. ♥ heartsong ♫ says:

    :) ……just thinking of David…… :)

  21. ♥ heartsong ♫ says:

    OKC – *dead*

  22. JANA~ SUMMERTIME~✰✰✰ says:

    heartsong~I keep changing it but it goes back to RENO~ It won’t change for me!!! Is somebody trying to tell me something??

  23. JeffR. (Sayreville, Lancaster and Allentown) says:

    Candy, I’ve got to watch the Sayreville video when I have time to download it, since I WAS THERE….whoohoo.

  24. jana RENO!!! says:

    OKC~ohhh

  25. Shelley says:

    It looks like Sayerville is winning the poll!!

  26. Attitude/Candy says:

    Ha, David was lucky that it was only one girl that tired to kiss him, Im sure there are MANY many more with that on their mind! Like I said, he always handles himself with the utmost class!

  27. Spidey says:

    Hi everyone! :-D

    WOW! David surely had a blast in Singapore. It was amazing to see him perform again. He really does hava a legion of fans in Singapore! It was amazing to watch them. Malaysia better be prepared as they’re in for a huge wave of Davidom! :-D

  28. Anne-Marie says:

    Hi everyone! I just finished reading and watching all 5 videos at RazerTV of David. I loved how the interviewer let David talk and express himself without interrupting him or moving on to other questions. David is the most intelligent, humble, sweetest, down to earth 18 year old that I’ve ever seen. I am so glad that today’s youth have David to look up to. (and us adults too!)

  29. ArchAngel121 says:

    Well I am partial to the Pomona one cause I was there! “How to Save a Life” was just the icing on the cake. Loved it! :)

  30. Kristin says:

    I was thinking the same thing. I’m sure many girls would love to try to kiss him, but have thought better of it. I’m surprised that’s the first we’ve heard of someone trying. :)

  31. Attitude/Candy says:

    23/Jeff- it is winning by a landslide!!! The Jersey crowd sure energized him during that song!

  32. JANA~ SUMMERTIME~✰✰✰ says:

    Did she try to kiss him on the cheek, or lips??? Or nose, or forhead? Or ear?

  33. ♥ heartsong ♫ says:

    Jana – LOL

    Hey Spidey! I’m thinking Singapore loves him!

  34. Kristin says:

    Hi Spidey! Hi Anne-Marie! How are you guys?

  35. JANA~ SUMMERTIME~✰✰✰ says:

    Hi Anne Marie!!!

    Kristin~I know that had to be a little uncomfortable for him…but I suspect it may not be the first time??

  36. Attitude/Candy says:

    Hey Anne-Marie-How are things at school?? The kids behaving?

  37. Whew…Krisitn, have you forgotten part of your job is to come gather up people dawdling on the old thread?! Of course, last night was really bad! LOL

  38. Attitude/Candy says:

    Were those the kitchen gadgets from our Fod’ers that he mentioned…he was like.. ermmm why did they give me this stuff…he is too funny!

  39. Kristin says:

    Jana-Perhaps not. . . maybe it’s just the first time we’ve heard it! haha

  40. JeffR. (Sayreville, Lancaster and Allentown) says:

    Hi Spidey, yes Singapore was very good to David, and so were the interviewers!

    Hi Anne-Marie, dang right, us adults too!

    31 Candy, David said we were the loudest audience he’s heard. I’m not sure why, there’s no shortage of decibal levels when David is around, but it even made him laugh during a song.

  41. ☮peacesign♥~ is ("A Little Too Not Over U- tah!")~PAM says:

    HI again!

  42. Attitude/Candy says:

    Joanie-I came back to get everyone…I think I need to get a new thread leash so all I have to do is give it a yank and you come along!! :)

    I mean 24.

  85. Anne-Marie says:

    Candy- My kids were fine today. Only 2 more days and I’m off for Spring break! After school today, my teaching assistant and I filled their Easter baskets with so much stuff that the parents brought in! Tomorrow we are having our Easter party (well, not really a party just Easter baskets and a video) and we hid the baskets out of sight so they think the Easter Bunny hid them. After we made the baskets, I stashed them away and the kiddos were like, “Hey where did our baskets go?” And I said, “Gee, I don’t know! They were here when I left last night. Maybe Peter Cottontail came and took them!” Boy, you really have to put on the acting skills for these kids but it’s so much fun!

    Joanie- Thanks! I wouldn’t be anywhere else! It’s taking me so long to start posting the last few days with all of these videos and articles to look through. Plus, I sent my sister some you tube videos of the SLC concert. I sent one of Zero Gravity, Angels, To Be With You and Touch My Hand!

  86. pastel says:

    Got the MP4’s safely on the ipod. I feel so much better. I’ll be listening on the way to work tomorrow. My favourite part…”Wait, what was the question again?”…..haha…David, don’t ever change!

  87. ♥ heartsong ♫ says:

    :) OKC is happiness…..just sayin’

  88. JANA says:

    Hi VAL..

  89. RJ says:

    I’m surprised that Sayreville is winning. I would have guessed after watching the video you gals would not be able to vote as you all would have dropped to the floor.

  90. ☮peacesign♥~ is ("A Little Too Not Over U- tah!")~PAM says:

    Hollyre~ Adam was the best.
    He did a really great job…
    he is not David…but he did good.

  91. Hollyre – I have no idea what song Adam sang but he got a standing O from Simon. I was like, come on, Simon, I dare ya…and then he stood up. It was amazing. Adam was amazing. I do not know the song. What’s wrong with me? I know ALL songs, usually. It was from 1982 and he kept saying “Mad World”, so I’m thinking that was the name of it. Not sure.

  92. Attitude/Candy says:

    73/PSP- tmw we head to the hosp at 5:30 Am…Mountain Candy…I love that!

  93. Kristin says:

    Time for me to skeedaddle! (is that how you spell that? lol) It’s getting dark in my house! I think I’ll watch that OKC video one more time before putting my head on my pillow. ;) Good night all! ♥

  94. JeffR. (Sayreville, Lancaster and Allentown) says:

    79 Holly, I don’t know what the song was, but Adam was #1 for the evening, followed by Allison. Does anyone know what that song was that Adam sang?

  95. ☮peacesign♥~ is ("A Little Too Not Over U- tah!")~PAM says:

    Night Sweet Kristin..love ya ♥ Sweet summer tour dreams!

  117. Anne-Marie says:

    Okay, I just watched that Don’t Let Go video that Hollyre posted. Umm… can I just say.. THUD!

  118. Peace – no, didn’t even watch it yet. Well, I probably did a while ago, but not tonight. It’s just hot in here. Oh wait, but I did just look at the pics at the top and the videos from Singapore. I love the interviews. He is always David, isn’t he? Parents or no parents, home or not, he is always himself. I just love that!

  119. ♥ heartsong ♫ says:

    Goodnight Russ…..

    Jana – Big mistake…..nobody should do Stand By Me even if they do change up the arrangement.

  120. Attitude/Candy says:

    Shelley-ROTF I liked the other better.

  121. ☮peacesign♥~ is ("A Little Too Not Over U- tah!")~PAM says:

    I did not like Danny tonight.

    Candy~ I noticed shelley’s “ho” too LOL she better lay off the DLG’s

  122. Scott sang one of my all-time favorite songs that I used to play by heart on the piano and Simon told him it was a terrible song…oh, that hurt!

  123. JeffR. (Sayreville, Lancaster and Allentown) says:

    I’ve got to say goodnight to everyone, have a great day tomorrow. Candy, I’ll be thinking of you and your husband, prayers for a fast, easy, successful outcome and recovery.

  124. Attitude/Candy says:

    Good Night Russ :)

  125. RJ says:

    #115 Jana…Didn’t really like Danny tonite. Don’t think his voice is that great. I think he should go the gospel route kinda a male Amy Grant.

  126. ☮peacesign♥~ is ("A Little Too Not Over U- tah!")~PAM says:

    David Archuleta owns Stand By Me too :lol:

  127. Shelley says:

    118 Peace: I CAN’T STOP!!!!!

  128. Attitude/Candy says:

    Good Night Jeff-Thank you!

  129. 70 Russ: Oh, there you are! Good! The thread is going very faast tonigh and I am trying to keep up!

    Anne-Marie: So, is your sister a fan of David?

    psp, my pesky little chicken got loose? Was it in MY comment? Yikes!

    Night Krisitin!

  130. ☮peacesign♥~ is ("A Little Too Not Over U- tah!")~PAM says:

    Anne-Marie~ your first time? um..double thud! I love that video! Intense!

    Night JeffR & Russ…I just love you roosters!

  131. Attitude/Candy says:

    The NY Post just named Adam Lambert the odds on favorite to win AI! Saying he was running away from the rest of the field!

  132. hollyre says:

    119/Anne-Marie – I warned you.

  133. Shelley says:

    117 Candy: ROTF!!! I tried to fix it but it submitted to fast!!! HaHaHa!!!

  134. ♥ heartsong ♫ says:

    Goodnight JeffR……see you tomorrow.

  135. ☮peacesign♥~ is ("A Little Too Not Over U- tah!")~PAM says:

    Shelley~ I love that DLG! see how he does that cute little peacesign! I love him!

  136. Spidey says:

    Hi VV, Russ, RJ! :-)

    Btw, can anyone please update me on what transpired on AI tonight? I missed the show…

  137. jana RENO!!! says:

    127~RJ~Yes, I can see that. SBM was not a good choice…for the obvious reason. Chris is on now! David said he liked him last week.

  138. Shelley says:

    I watched Adam for the first time tonight and he was alright!

  139. hollyre says:

    Good nitey Jeff!

  140. Anne-Marie says:

    Pastel- Ha Ha! :)

    Candy/PSP- Thanks! I love the holidays- I’m such a ham with my kids. We love to sing songs too- I have to close my door though because it bugs my partner teacher that she can hear us sing. (she doesn’t/won’t sing with her kids) That reminds me that I have got to start playing Let’s Talk About Love for my kids so they can start memorizing the words for Graduation. They asked about it and wanted to hear it again! Future David fans!

  141. Goodnight Russ!♥

    Goodnight JeffR! ♥

  142. ☮peacesign♥~ is ("A Little Too Not Over U- tah!")~PAM says:

    Joanie~ your chicken ran across Shelley’s keyboard LOL

  143. Shelley says:

    137 Peace: I loved it too! :wink:

  144. jana RENO!!! says:

    133~Candy, how was Adam tonite… should I stay tuned??

  145. Does anybody want me to tell Spidey what happened on AI tonight or not? Some of you haven’t watched it.

  146. RJ says:

    Hi Spidey.

    Voices this season are so “tinny”. Where are the “diva” voices like JHud, Syesha, Carrie and the arena voices like Clay, Archie, and Daughtry.

  147. ☮peacesign♥~ is ("A Little Too Not Over U- tah!")~PAM says:

    Anne-Marie~ u go girl! break em in young!

  148. Spidey says:

    NEW PACMEE MSG:

    “Morning everyone!It’s my last day in Singapore…it’s been great!Next stop….Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia! See you all tonight”

  149. Attitude/Candy says:

    146/Jana-Simon gave him a Standing O. I loved it!

  150. ☮peacesign♥~ is ("A Little Too Not Over U- tah!")~PAM says:

    I watched. Actually my daughter is watching it now…the seem worse the 2nd time LOL

  151. jana RENO!!! says:

    LIL~doing Tina T…not a good idea..

  152. Anne-Marie says:

    Joanie- No, not really, but she understands my love for David’s music and she was excited for me that I went to SLC! So, I wanted her to see some of the magic!

  153. Shelley says:

    It’s early to bed for me!! You all have a great night! I might just watch one more DLG video!

  154. Laura2o (hopes to go to India in 2010 to help Rising Star Outreach) says:

    Hi Everyone, I’ve been kind of absent tonight. I was busy creating a group on davidarchuleta.com for Rising Star Outreach. I invite you to go there and join the group.

    http://davidarchuletanetwork.ning.com/group/risingstaroutreach

    Thank you!

  155. jana RENO!!! says:

    RJ~Love Jennifer H…”And I’m telling you”"..phenomenal..

  156. Jana – You’re right – Lil was trying to BE Tina Turner. It was not good and the judges told her that. My faves tonight were Matt and Adam.

  157. ♥ heartsong ♫ says:

    I’m heading to bed….I stayed up much too late last night. (((HUGGIES))) ♥♫

    Candy – You and hubby in my thoughts and prayers tomorrow.

  158. Jana~Summertime!! ✰✰✰ says:

    thanks Laura!

  159. hollyre says:

    I really liked Lil at the beginning, but she is just doing other divas and she isn’t measuring up. I think she’s a goner.

  160. So, how far is Malaysia from Singapore, and what is the time difference from us in Malaysia? Gotta know these things, ya know?

  161. Jana~Summertime!! ✰✰✰ says:

    Val…guess I’ll stay tuned, gotta see the standing O for Adam..

    Candy~Your husband will be in my prayers! And you too….

  162. hollyre says:

    Night Heart and Shelley.

  163. jana RENO!!! says:

    Val~All I know is that it seems like his day is half over by the time I wake up here in PST.

  164. Anne-Marie says:

    #156- Laura2o- I joined! I had made a donation a few weeks ago- before I left for Utah.

  165. jana RENO!!! says:

    Night Heartsong and Shelley~Sweet DLG dreams… :) Couldn’t resist!

  166. Jana – I know. It’s weird. It’s 11:30 a.m. in Singapore right now. I wonder how he got used to that, or IF he did. He must have stayed up all night when he left Utah. Who’s on IDOL right now?

  167. Attitude/Candy says:

    RJ-I agree. where are the big voices, aside from Adam…I had higher hopes for Lil but she is just not bringing it. I think some record label is already counting their $$$ from when they sign Adam. He will sell concert tickets thats for sure! he may not be everyone

  168. Attitude/Candy says:

    Sweet Dreams Heart. Thanks you for the good wishes.

  169. Anoop was the cutest baby, but Ryan? OMG. Ryan changed a LOT!

  170. RJ says:

    Anoop should have listened to Eva Cassidy’s version of True Colors. Eva, that girl can SING!!!

  171. Attitude/Candy says:

    well I better head to bed, longggg day ahead tomorrow. Thanks for all of the love and good wishes for my hubby. (((HUGS))) BEAM ME UP DAVID

  172. jana RENO!!! says:

    Anoop just finishe TRUE COLORS….cyndi Lauper

  173. jana RENO!!! says:

    RJ~Did you here EVA’s Time After Time?? I would love David to do that!

  174. RJ says:

    #169 Candy…I just don’t care for Adam’s screaming though.

  175. Anne-Marie:I have found that people who hang around those of us who are big fans eventually start to “get” it! They start to see David through OUR eyes…and hearts!

    Night heartsong!

    Night Shelley!

    Man, I can’t keep up tonight! *sigh*

  176. Okay, I did not like True Colors, probably because I don’t like that song. It sounded corny to me. I was sure they would say that, but they all liked it. What do I know?

  177. Anne-Marie says:

    Okay, I have to head out too! Good night everyone! See you tomorrow!

  178. RJ says:

    #175 Jana…Yes, I do have it in my ipod. But my favorite of hers is Autumn Leaves.

  179. hollyre says:

    Candy – Peace to you and your hubby tomorrow. I hope the time flies by. Prayers and good thoughts.

  180. I wanna know how come Adam always gets to be last…he’s good but he should have to go first sometime. Jana, just so you know, the show runs over and they have to rush through Adam, and only Simon talks, but he also STANDS. It’s SO cool. I dared him to do it, and then he did it. That was quite funny.

  181. Cand, darlin! You and Ben are in my mind and heart! ♥

  182. jana RENO!!! says:

    I also love Songbird…something about it..

  183. Night Anne-Marie!

  184. hollyre says:

    Yep, it’s bedtime. See you all tomorrow when I’m sure we’ll get more Archuwonderfulness! I love him more today than yesterday. Those interviews were precious.

  185. jana RENO!!! says:

    Val~Has Simon ever given a standing O before???

  186. jana RENO!!! says:

    Candy~ Goodnight my dear! Peace and Strength.

  187. Jana – not that I can ever remember. But I have a bad memory.

  188. jana RENO!!! says:

    Val, what song does Adam sing?

  189. RJ says:

    Jana…I haven’t downloaded all of her songs. I’m motivated to do so before the itunes downloads become pricier.

  190. jana RENO!!! says:

    Scott’s playing guitar tonight.

  191. hollyre says:

    188/Jana – Simon stood and clapped for David last year when he sang Apologize with One Republic. They all stood.

  192. Jana – doesn’t anyone read my posts? (LOL) I went on and on about how I didn’t know his song but it might have been “Mad World” cuz he said that a lot. It was just awesome whatever it was. I can’t believe I didn’t know it. It was from 1982. He has such control, I can’t believe it. Sorry to gush about someone other than David here. That’s probably not too cool.

  193. jana RENO!!! says:

    194~I’ll have to go check that out!

  194. My husband just sent me an E-mail from the other room. Hmmm. What do you all think of that?

  195. jana RENO!!! says:

    Val~I know nobody comapes to David in your eyes :) Or mine for that matter. He just so different from most idols..and it’s not that great this year..so we have to talk about somebody.. So he must be just a little older than my son.

  196. Laura2o (hopes to go to India in 2010 to help Rising Star Outreach) says:

    Thanks Anne-Marie and Jana :) I noticed that the total went from $565 to $926 in just a few hours. So cool! I think this will mean sooo much to David. Of course, it will mean even more the those in India who need our help. Thanks again!

  197. jana RENO!!! says:

    Bonnie Raitt’s ICMYLM..pretty great song!

  198. hollyre says:

    Val – I read your post. I even searched for it on youtube, but it’s not out there yet.

  199. RJ says:

    Allison comes close to that “diva” voice I am looking for.

  200. Thank you Holly! HAHA I know I ramble sometimes so people probably skip over me.

  201. pastel says:

    Oh my…I am so sorry guys, but I got lost in the other Don’t Let Go vids. I went to the OKC vid based upon Candy and Hollyre’s recommendation, then I had to go to the Buffalo concert vid, and then all the rest again.

    Sorry Becks, but although David was on fire at SLC, he sang the song with total abandon in Sayreville. Love the OKC one too. Each is better than the rest. I gotta get some rest soon.

  202. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    So many lovely things to catch up on for the day. :)

    - Love Sarah’s sarcastic blog from Singapore.
    - I wonder how David felt performing with his GIANT face behind him?
    - watching ATM, seeing smiling sunshine David made me well-up with tears. *sniff*
    - a Singapore fan wouldn’t let go and tried to kiss him. LOL
    - Noop dog tried to sing True Colors. Doesn’t he know that’s the song I reeeally want David to sing?? tisk, tisk
    - Did the screams for David in iluma mall really break glass, or was Becky just joshing???

    Thanks Fran, how is everyone?!

  203. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    204/pastelscarf – I haven’t watched the DLG videos yet. Can I make it thru all of them in one shot, or will I need to take a breather in between?? ;)

  204. Jana~Waiting for Summertime says:

    RJ~Allison is a talented young lady, huh. Pretty authentic!

  205. ☮peacesign♥~ is ("A Little Too Not Over U- tah!")~PAM says:

    Sweet summer tour dreams everyone!
    DLG did me in!!
    Love you guys!

    Night David ♥ safe travels..come home soon!
    ☮peace

  206. pastel says:

    Hi NA…missed you here. You missed Sarah from Singapore…she was on earlier.

    Why do you have a problem with David singing in front of his giant, flawless face? Seems perfectly natural to me.

    Have you heard the RazorTV interviews yet. Definitely worth it!

  207. Okay, I just did some investigating and the song was “Mad World” by Tears for Fears. How did I not know that? I used to love them. Well, Adam changed it a LOT!

  208. Hi everybody that is still up. Signing in for the late night shift! That razor pop interview was fantastic!!! David is soooooo happy!! I love the way he talks about TMH!! It is the perfect concert starter song. It is just so wonderful all the love he has for us!!!

  209. pastel says:

    Peace…I’ll try to send those MP4’s to you but some are big. I’ll try.

  210. RJ says:

    #207 Jana…And for 16? She’s only 16 right?

  211. pastel says:

    RobinF….I felt the same way when he talked about Touch My Hands. He loves our reaction to it, and to us wanting to touch his hand or take photos. He loves it. I wasn’t so sure. I feel somewhat better now. Not sure why.

  212. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    209/pastel – I watched the interviews and then videos from the mall and then cried.

    No problems here with two David’s in one shot. I was just wondering his reaction, like if he saw it and jumped back or something. LOL

  213. Jana~Waiting for Summertime says:

    Val~Loved that interview too..I have seen so many now, I almost know what he will answer :)

  214. Val LOL I just read that your hubby sent you an email from the other room!! Does he think that is the only way to get your attention?? Maybe if he got a David Archuleta mask???

  215. jana RENO!!! says:

    RJ~Just 16 years old! I think Adam is next..now I am curious :) So far I think I have liked Allison the best.

  216. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    210/VisorVal – thanks for looking that up! I was wondering about Mad Love. I’ll have to go take a listen to the Tears for Fears version.

  217. pastel says:

    #206 NA…so you noticed my new avi, did you haha?

    You may be able to take the DLG’s in one shot, but you better have something cold right beside you.

  218. JANA – Adam does another version of the song, I guess. Are you watching it now? What do you think?

    RobinF – Yes, a David mask just might work…for a few seconds maybe. He is SO jealous! And he should be. David is some kind of wonderful!

  219. Pastel yea now I don’t feel so silly for having my arm stretched out like some crazy fan ( oh thats right, I am a crazy fan!!) Dang short arms anyway!

  220. NA – It’s Mad WORLD, not Mad Love. Watch the Donnie Darko version. That’s it.

  221. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    After watching AI tonight, this is what I thought…no one this year is as genuinely sweet, or raw talented as our David!

  222. CRUSH IS PLAYING ON MY RADIO STATION RIGHT NOW! THEY TOOK ALTNOY OFF THEIR PLAYLIST. . . I AM NOT HAPPY!

  223. jana RENO!!! says:

    OK I just saw it…He is the best this season, I think. He has the voice, the look, and a very polished stage persona. I will be surprised if he doesn’t win.

  224. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    VisorVal – oops, thanks for clearing that up. Guess I’d be searching for awhile. LOL

    pastel – I only tease, love the scarf!

  225. jana RENO!!! says:

    NA~Nobody is like David!! :) Plus he is such a phenomenal human being..

  226. NA – I agree, but really we haven’t gotten to know the people as much as we did last year. Or have I missed something? Maybe because I used to watch those behind the scenes videos on Idol.com. Well, last year I WANTED to know more, this year I really don’t. Well, I do, but it’s not the same.

  227. pastel says:

    NA and Val…I thought Adam was amazing tonight singing Mad World. His interpretation was haunting. I wasn’t a fan before but this guy is totally talented.

  228. Jana – What did you think about Matt? He’s my home-boy. I thought he was great tonight.

  229. jana RENO!!! says:

    Donnie Darko…that’s where I’ve heard it before!!

  230. RJ says:

    Adam is the most “seasoned” performer contestant of any season, I believe. For that, he’s going to win AI8. I don’t think his voice is incredible though. So, my question is…He will sell concerts. Will he sell albums/ songs?

  231. jana RENO!!! says:

    Val~YEP, Matt’s talented too, do you think he has that something extra..that IT factor that generates votes?

  232. I have been requesting and couldn’t figger out why they haven’t played it then I streamed the station and Billy Bush was on. He obviously has no taste in music and doesn’t play our David!! Its over now so hopefully our CP will be on soon. Just incase send them a request

    http://www.mix1079.net/song-request/

  233. jana RENO!!! says:

    Pastel! I agree about Adam..hey I missed the significance of the scarf avi??? I know that’s your scarf, I have seen it on ya in pictures..

  234. Val did they takes ALTNOY off thier play list or off thier request list??? Well atleast this Crush ain’t goin awayayayayayay

  235. Jana – Like I said, we haven’t really seen the personalities much this year. I think Matt has been really nervous, but I think he has a personality that needs to come out. They said he is the impersonator of the group. I wanna see more of that.

  236. pastel says:

    Oh Jana…its just that David noticed my scarf when I met him and said “Hey, your scarf matches your name”. And I replied very calmly…”Yes, David, it does”. What a goofy response.

  237. Oh yea, Robin, it’s off the request list. It never was on the Playlist. I wrote it in and asked what happened to it.

  238. jana RENO!!! says:

    RJ~He is a showman, huh. I can see him doing musical theater. He sings a lot in falsetto..I would like to hear more of his big boy voice :) So I can hear how good it really is, you know?

    Like with David.. so technically brilliant the way he is able to use his voice to make one feel emotion, or tell a story.

  239. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    Jana – you said it!!

    Val – I was thinking that too. Maybe it’s how they got to the top 10, but I don’t feel like we know these contestants as well. Plus, no idol gives back this year.

    pastel – Adam has pipes, that’s for sure. I still see him as a theatrical performer more than a singer though. No throwing tomatoes! Matt G. was back tonight, he’s a my fave this year!

  240. PASTEL – You should have said, “and your scarf matches YOU, all warm and fuzzy.” Never mind, that’s goofy too. LOL

  241. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    Visor Val – Matt G has the vibe!!

  242. jana RENO!!! says:

    pastel~Oh, I think I heard that, just forgot. What a sweet memory, and what a sweet observation by David. I think your response was perfect!

  243. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    goodnight spidey, thanks for supplying us with all those wonderful videos!!

  244. jana RENO!!! says:

    244~Val~you are so funny sometimes..can you imagine what David would do if you told him he was warm and fuzzy!! I can hear the giggle now..

  245. RJ says:

    G’night all. Time for bed. Will talk to you again Jana.

  246. I don’t think they should have them perform in the midst of the crowd either. They get lost in the raised arms of the girls, and it must be nerve-wrecking to be that close to people. They just seem disconnected and can’t move around. I don’t like that. I think it hurt Matt when he did it, and tonight it hurt Kris. I like Kris a lot, but tonight not my fave.

  247. Spidey says:

    One more: (just watch the first 20 secs) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5_XqhGZpg4

    G’night all. :-)

  248. pastel says:

    Thanks for that Spidey…I have a very short one for you!

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfN1gIFJeN8&NR=1

    Night everyone!

  249. jana RENO!!! says:

    Robin~Yes~RJ was mentioning that earlier..just exquisite!

  250. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    That Donnie Darko seems like one freaky movie.

  251. jana RENO!!! says:

    Night pastel!!! Is your scarf hanging on the bedpost while you sleep? :)

  252. Jana – I told David he’s “wonderful” and I “love everything you sing.” Duh. Then I said, “there’s that laugh” when he was laughing and he gave me a glare, oh boy, what a glare, like “are you making fun of me? But I wasn’t, I really love his laugh.

  253. I would never have heard of Eva Cassidy if not for David and she is so soothing!!!

    ALTNOY IS ON!!

  254. RJ says:

    Jana…One last thing about Adam. He’s running away with the competition because he’s re-arranging old songs in unique ways. But how will that translate to original songs he’ll be singing if there’s not “old version” to compare it with. You get what I mean?

  255. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    251/Val – I agree, it seems too crowded.

    Ginight pastel!

  256. jana RENO!!! says:

    NA~ My son brought that movie over one evening..I think it may have been the first time I saw Jake Gyllenhaal, I have no idea if I spelled his last name right..

  257. jana RENO!!! says:

    259~RJ~AHHHH~good point, isn’t that what Cook sort of did as well w/ Billy Jean and a couple others? hmmm

  258. RJ – Didn’t David Cook do the same thing, pretty much? That’s what the judges want, for some odd reason.

  259. BTW – I ignored my husband’s E-mail. Wonder how that will go over.

  260. jana RENO!!! says:

    Val~He glared??? Now that is a memory! You made David glare at you!! Love it. hahahha

  261. jana RENO!!! says:

    Has anyone heard from Becca??

  262. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    Ginight RJ!

    262/jana – LOL

    RobinF- I want to move to Texas.

  263. Jana – yea, come to think of it, that was pretty cute. I can still see his face. He just stopped, turned his head fast and looked at me. Okay, so that’s probably why he remembered me the next time we met…I made fun of his laugh! Ahh, and I thought it was my big blue eyes. Darn!

  264. NA I am moving out of Texas :( ! I have to stream the station to hear it now!!!

  265. RJ says:

    Val and Jana…I guess I’m not in bed yet. HAHA. Yeah, that’s what Cook did too but, at least, I know what Cook’s style is. There was no question, regardless of how he re-arranged an old song, that Cook is ROCK. What’s Adam?

  266. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    Wouldn’t you know it, they were running out of time tonight on AI, so the only comment Adam got from the judges was a standing O. Why don’t they just hand him the crown now.

  267. Robin – now what did you have to go and do that for? (send the video) I was doing good tonight…now wiping the eyes. I feel like I never saw that one before. But that’s not possible, is it? Naaaaaa.

  268. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    RobinF – that’s right, I remember you mentioning that. When/where are you moving??

    RJ – Adam’s music is theatrical. It’s in his blood, he can’t shake it. Each song is a mini-musical performance. The only one I can compare him to is Feddy Mercury.

  269. jana RENO!!! says:

    RJ~Great point..plus his style, whatever it is, does change from week to week. You did know what to expect w/Cook. Well, next week should be interesting. Someone at work mentioned some youtube videos of pre-idol performances of Adam that are quite something. I haven’t checked any out yet. I guess he has been performing a long time.

  270. Sue B. in NY says:

    Hello RJ and NA! I would classify Adam as THEATER, since his style is very over the top, with his theater background it makes sense that’s how he comes across on AI. But I definitely see Adam, Danny, and Allison in the top 3, jmho

  271. NA – Yea, Freddie Mercury! Well, he was VERY dramatic. I don’t think Adam is that over the top, but…we’ll see. I’m not sure what kind of an album he’d put out either. I can’t see “pop”.

  272. Sue B. in NY says:

    Yes NA, Freddy Mercury, thank you, i was trying to think of who he reminded me of!

  273. RJ says:

    NA – Or possibly a Billy Idol or Elton John kind of performer but will those type of music fans give him a chance/ credibility coming from a singing competition?

  274. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    248/RobinF – just caught that. Isn’t True Colors by Eva Cassidy mesmerizing? I want David to sing it before I’m too old to hear. :)

  275. jana RENO!!! says:

    Robin F~AWWW~I love that WBMW performance. Young David is so sincere, and intent on selling the song..it just sort of makes me weepy for some reason.

  276. And then there was David…I’m starting to feel bad talking about Idol and not David. What do you think he’s doing right now?

  277. jana RENO!!! says:

    na~David singing that would be phenomenal…also Time After Time.. He could do a whole album of great cover songs.

  278. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    Sue B – my 7 yr old son has picked Gokey (has he likes to call him LOL) as the winner. We’ll see if he’s right! I’m hoping Allison sticks around for awhile, go rocker chics!

  279. jana RENO!!! says:

    RJ~when you mentioned Billy Idol, I immediately pictured him singing “White Wedding” or that little sister song..I can certainly see that!

  280. I hope David is stuffing his face right now with whatever he wants to eat!

  281. jennifer B/jenLeigh photos? somewhat ok says:

    http://www.mediafire.com/imageview.php?quickkey=f1kdewgzznl&thumb=5

    I come bearing gifts. I decided to “crop” a few SLC photos :o ))))

  282. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    Val – David Pacmee’d that he’s off to Malaysia. Hope he gets a little time to sight-see there! :)

  283. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    jennifer B – how are you? you’re always so kind with sharing beautiful photos!

  284. Sue B. in NY says:

    NA, my daughter’s jaw dropped when she saw that Allison has the same birthday she does lol, five years difference though, she is 11. i def think she has the presence to make it longer in the competition.

  285. Its funny , when you go on youtube one video leads to another and you get lost there!! If I don’t mark them as favorites I will never find them again!!

    NA Its hard to explain where I am moving to. We sold our house 4 years ago and decided to RV full time and see the country! My hubby is a retired Navy man so his pension allowed us to retire early. Now that it is warming up we can go north. We hope to spend June and July in Colo. not far from Shelley and then go to Washington and take the PCH down to Cali for the winter. Maybe Palm Springs area.

  286. RJ says:

    That Pacmee thing…Is it only me? The name gives me the creeps. It’s a weird name. Or is it just me?

  287. jana RENO!!! says:

    I would like to see David do some duets, too! Who would he be great with?? (anyone, duh)
    I have noticeded he is so polite when he does duets or sings w/a group of people, he never opens up and get competitive, or try to overpower the other person.

  288. dj3 says:

    Hi All~just wanted to let you know the long overdue upright rotation of …..DLG~Northampton …..is finally done ..but does appear smaller..so you may want to keep viewing in the original THUD positon..here ya go..enjoy..

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xKvxuv4cPI

  289. jana RENO!!! says:

    RJ~I didn’t get the name..do you know if it means anything or has any significance?

  290. Laura2o (hopes to go to India in 2010 to help Rising Star Outreach) says:

    Good night everybody! Sweet dreams!

  291. What? David is playing Pac-Man in Malaysia? Cool. I love that game!

  292. Sue B. in NY says:

    RJ, it is not just you lol, I think of the video game Pacman when I see that! Wokka, wokka,wokka lol

  293. Sue B – My son shares a birthday with Kris – June 21st. Funny.

  294. Sue B. in NY says:

    Robin F, saw that WBMW video, that sums up my feelings for David exactly! If i could only sing that to him………

  295. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    RobinF – how exciting! Now you’ll just have to get on good terms with another radio station. You def. have the knack!

    G’night Laura!

    Think I’ll be heading out too. Sweet dreams all!!

  296. I know Robin. I’m trying to be funny…guess I’m not…gonna cry now.

    Some of that stuff he writes doesn’t sound like him, or is it just me?

  297. RJ says:

    Especially when it’s used as a verb…”to pacmee”…HAHA…OK, I’m gonna stop now.

  298. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    Pac Man :lol: Val, I thought you were kidding.

  299. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    Poor Val, we love you! ♥

  300. Sue B. in NY says:

    Visor Val, I always found it funny that Taylor Hicks and Simon Cowell shared a birthday, I guess not all Libras are alike!

  301. Tidbit – My son and I share Princess Diana’s and Prince William’s birthdays. I think that is pretty cool.

  302. NA/northernangel (aka Sybil) says:

    310/SueB – now THAT is funny!!

    G’night again, I mean it this time! LOL

  303. Sue B. in NY says:

    and twitter means “make chirping noises” LOL

  304. hey everyone

    Just stopping bye to say hi. been working on my myspace. have some new pics, well i designed them a little using other people’s pic, except the one that has the david’s poster from the frand sierra, that’s my pic. Plus some of my Reno videos, check it out!

    How is everyone doing today?

  305. RJ says:

    Sue B. What r u still doing up? Isn’t it 1:00am there in NY?

  306. I mean grand sierra, lol geez

  307. NA I have to stay in one place long enough to find a radio station to ” work on”. Maybe when we go to COLO.

  308. Sue B. in NY says:

    also means to giggle or talk idly, lol, not sure if that is David or not!

  309. jana RENO!!! says:

    OK I’m out of here..getting sleepy!

    Beautiful pics Jennifer :)

    dj3~quite the video, whew!

    Goodnight sweet people, Val, RJ, Robin, NA, and everyone!! Sweet summer concert dreams!!!

    Thank you David!

  310. Sue B. in NY says:

    I am on spring break from work RJ, I drive a school bus, am now feasting on photo guru’s many delicacies!

  311. Jade ~ ♥ ~ says:

    midnight countdown…. ALTNOY was NOT on the midnight countdown again guys!!!!!!!! :(

    The other countdowns were great today though!!! :D
    We’ll be back tomorrow for more voting. :D

  312. Hi Becca!! Its Christmas on FOD as long as Jennleigh is here!!!!

  313. RJ says:

    Sue B. You’re on spring break? Then why are u here? Shouldn’t you be in Fort Lauderdale, Daytona Beach or somewhere warm in your bikini downing cans of beer? :lol:

  314. Sue B. in NY says:

    Night Jana! hi becca! I second that RobinF!

  315. Hi Robin! Looks like I just miss jana! :(

  316. Hi Sue B :)

    I was voting in between decorating my page. Guess everyone went to sleep

  317. Jade oh no that happend last night too. Maybe there are more people available to vote for others at that time. Maybe just because of Spring Break. When the kids go back to school they will have to go to bed earlier.

  318. Sue B. in NY says:

    ROTFL RJ!!! Got three kids at home, too fat for a bikini, and I don’t drink anyway, but the Florida weather does sound inviting though!

  319. Wow! I just realized that I didn’t watch every part of that interview. I only saw 4 parts, then I counted 5 and I was like, “What?” So I just watched the 5th. I can get lost in him. He was rambling on and on, but I could listen all day. There must be more, right? Nobody said “good-bye” yet. I gotta watch that again…

  320. Eternal Flame (Auro, jarturo, artuto, Mr. Flame, Aturo) says:

    Well goodnight, please help here in Sactown, no David on our radio here :(

  338. If your station has an online form I think they look at those more.

    http://www.mix1079.net/song-request/

    Since they advertise listen around the world I think all requests are welcome!! Put in your request. Last night they played it every hour until 6 am!!

  339. Jade ~ ♥ ~ says:

    RobinF.. :D the good thing is that they played ALTNOY a bit before the countdown and 20 minutes after the countdown so he got two spins anyway!! We are doing some more voting before bed.. I would rather he miss the midnight one than the the noon one if he is missing one.. don’t you think? More people will hear him at noon. :D
    I seriously can’t believe your RS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  340. Eternal Flame (Auro, jarturo, artuto, Mr. Flame, Aturo) says:

    With all your travelling.. you will have RS all over playing ALTNOY!!
    Gotta go to bed.. getting in a last vote and call. :)

  352. Sue B. in NY says:

    Robin F, Crush did very well at whud.com , made the top 100 of 2008 at #34!

  353. Becca LOL. Go get some sleep girl!!! See ya tomorrow!!

    This is a great time to vote on each others stations as there is not too many people to ” Spam” the radio stations!!

  354. Eternal Flame (Auro, jarturo, artuto, Mr. Flame, Aturo) says:

    no problem val, we’re willing to do anything for archie!

  355. Sue B. in NY says:

    http://www.xmradio.com/programming/20on20_vote.jsp
    keep on voting here! every five minutes! no limit!

  356. David is so funny…he doesn’t know if he’ll be able to do music for the rest of his life and make money at it. I know.

  357. Jade wouldn’t that be great. If only I had that kind of ability!! I certainly can try!!!

  358. Sue B yay!!! I do still love Crush!! It is so cute how David is shyly admitting that ALTNOY has a personal experience message!! I wonder if “she” knows who “she is!!

  359. Sue B. in NY says:

    http://www.mediabase.com/mmrweb/7/stationplaylistrequest.asp?c_let=WSPK-FM
    here is another NY area one, right near my town too, but it looks like you have to write in ALTNOY

  360. Eternal Flame (Auro, jarturo, artuto, Mr. Flame, Aturo) says:

    val, david’s a silly boy.

  361. Well, good-night Peeps! Better go to bed before I watch that 5th video one more time…

  362. Sue B. in NY says:

    Not sure if he’ll make money at it? David is such a silly boy, yes, of course he will, he is our stimulus package! Saw that line written on the back of a van at the Lancaster, PA concert.

  363. Eternal Flame (Auro, jarturo, artuto, Mr. Flame, Aturo) says:

    night val.

    i’m leaving now too fod. hope to see you soon. night.

  364. Becca I know you are probably in bed by now but I just looked at your pics and I was so close to those place when I was in Santa barbara!! Pismo Bch and mMorro Bay, San Luis Obispo!!! I cant’t wait till this summer to visit those places.

  365. Sue B. in NY says:

    Lol Val! Must keep the fingers from clicking, down boy! Good night!

  366. EF – Good night! Sorry, you are here and I should talk but I’m fading…

  367. Sue B. in NY says:

    Robin F, “she” probably has no clue at all!

  368. Night Arturo. stay well. You are always in our hearts ♥

  369. Sue B – That’s funny…today I was thinking that David could boost the economy all by himself!

  370. Sue B. in NY says:

    Night mr. flame!

  371. RobinF – Speaking of “she”, I am confused…if there is a “she”, how come he says he has never had a girlfriend? Okay, well, I guess he could have had a “someone” but not an actual “girlfriend.” I get it now. Never mind. “She” is one silly girl!

  372. Sue B I bet your right. Either that or there are more than one that thinks its about her! I am sure he was always a kind and thoughtful friend so ………….

  373. I’m not here. . . SO, If that girl knows who she is, what the heck is wrong with her head? I wonder what the scenes were from ALTNOY that they had to cut out because David wouldn’t do it. I wonder this and I wonder that…good night!

  374. Sue B. in NY says:

    Val and Robin, probably a girl that never was actually his “girlfriend”, but he was too shy to ask her out on a real date, and lost her then to another guy, oh I do remember that feeling…..

  375. In case you’re wondering, it’s 2:11 pm in Kuala Lumpur, April 8. I just looked that up. I was wondering that too. Curious Val goes to bed…

  376. Sue B. in NY says:

    Lol Val, or are you a figment of our imagination right now haha. i got to get to bed myself, 2:15 am here, yawn, will be back tomorrow! Night Val and Robin!

  377. Val David is a mystery thats for sure!! But what a wonderful mystery!!! Good night!! Have a WONDER – ful sleep!!

  378. Sue B. in NY says:

    BTW you two should come in evening FOD chat sometime, we play great music :)

  379. I think I’m a figment of my own imagination. I just looked up the distance between Singapore and Malaysia. Who cares? Just get there safely, David. That’s all I ask. NIGHT!!

  380. Awww, David’s music makes me cry. I don’t like to cry in front of my family. I come late when they are all sleeping. Hey, stop talking to me. I’m going to bed now, dangit! I wonder if David is flying to Malaysia…

  381. Sue B I do go to chat but not enough. Next time you are there come here and get me.

    Val yes David just arrive safe!!

  382. OMG ALTNOY is now playing and is ranked #3 on my RS!!!!!!

  394. pam05 says:

    Good Morning kimk
    Did I read that ALYNOY made #1 yesterday on XM? My son and his friend is on spring break and they are using our good computer alot, so I am stuck with our old dinasour of a computer which takes forever in a day to go from A TO B (*-*) so I have been missing alot of goodies here and there.

  395. pam05 says:

  418. cccan says:

    Good morning Pam05,gg & Mhel. It is only 5:27 a.m. here in western Canada.

    David is not shy anymore, giggling, hugging, singing “Don’t cry”. Feel good to see him being so happy and confident. Ray is softening too. He did say “let him do what he wants”. haha! Good for the fans.

  419. pam05 says:

    It sound’s like Ray is finally getting David :wink:

  420. kimk says:

    I think there is a new PACMEE too but have to check on it?

    it’s 7:40 here…David should be landing in Malaysia right about now…..

  427. pam05 says:

    cccan
    I live in Mi. and you are 2hrs. behind us.

    Folks
    I love how he is so comfortable with his fanbase, this makes me feel like he knows we “get him” and accept him the way he is. He can giggle, hug, and sing in front of us like a friend would. He’s really becoming more assertive in his interviews also.

  428. kimk says:

    ccan Thanks! I am so behind in some of the videos as there are so many!!

    OMGosh

    Hi Pam,kimk, naree! I’m sure David will receive another warm welcome in Malaysia.
    David has to be beyond excited to be this popular overseas. I’m loving all of the
    interviews with good intelligent questions.

    Kimk..Malaysia is about 3 hrs away from the Philippines

    Pam I am guessing there will be more people in the airport to meet David since it is only 7pm …in Singapore he arrived at 1:30 am when almost everybody was alseep!

    I think we will have videos within the hour! lol

  441. Archiecrat says:

    Hi GG – Are you still wearing blue today? Our Crown Prince is making quite an impact
    on the international scene! It’s fun to see how excited they all are to see him for the
    first time in person.

  442. pam05 says:

    gg_
    I thought they didn’t do a 9am countdown, isn’t 9am the morning mash up?

    naree- I wouldn’t be surprised if half of Malaysia was at the airport right now after
    hearing about his appearances in Singapore.

  444. cccan says:

    check out http://archuletavenue.wordpress.com/

    click on David in Malaysia. people are already waiting at the airport an hour ago saying that David will arrive in 50 mins. will see pic or video soon I hope.

  445. Rachel Tan says:

    Aww you guys are welcome & thank you!

    Love
    Rachel

  446. pam05 says:

    OMGosh
    How are they going to control the crowd :shock: I wonder if they know what they are in for with his arrival!!!

  447. kimk says:

    I think I read there are folks waiting for David at the airport in KL.

  448. cccan says:

    440 Rachel – cute pictures of David signing your bear. Nice to see you.

  449. Archiecrat says:

    Watch out Malaysia Here comes the Crown Prince!!!

  450. pam05 says:

    cccan
    The “David in Malaysia” link won’t let me click on it…can you give me the link it takes you so I can see what you see?

  451. JoyF says:

    Good morning everyone. I love these early morning hours…no one to interrupt me as I get my David fix.

    I was so happy to see the RAZOR interview on youtube. I’ve alredy downloaded them onto my hard drive and will make MP4s later. Our reporters in the States should take lessons from their peers in Asia on how to do intelligent interviews.

    Re: A girl trying to kiss David….Wasn’t there a video of some girl trying to kiss David during the Idol tour and Cook ran interference for him?

    Miley is at the HRC in NYC! Good Morning America. David was there!!!

  467. Archiecrat says:

    crusherlvr/490 – David’s interviews are so interesting. His mind is thinking so fast
    that he can’t get his words out as fast and gets tongue tied. Too cute!

  468. GG_archudoors (David & Me - 8/17/2008 - CLT, NC!) says:

    Hi Jen!! :)

  469. kimk says:

    JoyF lol I think David was going something like you want to do what? kind of thing. It was really cute.

    I think Miley is singing to a track?

  472. kimk says:

    Archiecrat Oh gosh I really hope he kind of keeps some of his total sweetness as he matures.

  473. Archiecrat says:

    Mhel/498- I hope David got to see his name “up in lights” !!! They really put out
    the red carpet for our crowned prince! That is amazing to see.

  474. naree says:

    David has arrived in Malaysia….and the fans swallowed him up!!!! lol!! ..uhoh!

    #501/ Hi Naree! *SQUEALS* :)

  478. crusherlvr says:

    Hi kimk!

    Archiecrat – It really is fun to watch/listen to his interviews. He really thinks about the questions that are asked and gives honest answers, not ones that makes him “look good.” Can’t believe the wisdom he has at such a young age. A great role model for young and old…

    Jen – Hope you get those M&G passes.

  479. pam05 says:

    Hi JEN :)

  480. Mhel (*.*) says:

    hi archiecrat!

    Dear Sony BMG people/Jive, “Let him do what he wants!”

    crushlvr I agree it is his CD! I think they will do Zero GRavity though. I mean did they see the same reactions from it as everyone else did??

    Okay I gotta go get ready for track practice.

    I am having a sleepover at my house for my birthday (it’s a little late but weekends are packed so we couldn’t do it yet) Anyway I am getting the BEST cake ever! All I can tell you is it’s a HOT ICE CREAM cake. (and it’s NOT melted)

  502. kimk says:

    Davidafan Late and it was your Birthady?
    HAPPY BIRTHDAY GIRL!!!!

  504. kimk says:

    Guys
    Fol rida and Kelly Picler will be on Idol tonight. They were talking AI too. Maybe they will play David’s ALTNOY!!! On XM!!!

  505. kimk says:

    Good Morning Peace! Hey they met David at the airport in Malaysia and I think they swallowed him up. Not sure what that means but I think they like him?

  506. pam05 says:

    davidafan4ever
    Happy Birthday :)

  507. GG_archudoors (David & Me - 8/17/2008 - CLT, NC!) says:

    Hi Team!!

    I LOVE this note the folks at Archuleta Avenue posted on their board! They really are respectful of David, and IMO, this is the right example and mindset I hope we all have when going to see David Live – ASIAN FOD’ers ROCK! :)
    _______________________________________________________________________

    IMPORTANT NOTE

    We do not guarantee that you will get to meet and chat with David at any of the events but we will seize the opportunity as it arises. However, we wish to implore you guys to be on your BEST BEHAVIOR at all time. Do not mob or harass David for a picture if it is not possible for him to do so. David loves you guys but sometimes he is placed in sticky situations and we don’t want Malaysian fans to be known as demanding and morbid fans.

    Oh, and yes, Jeff wasn’t coming with David so Ray (tour manager) is accompanying David. Still, you know what to do, make Ray feel welcomed as much as Jeff would!

  508. davidafan4ever says:

    kimk yeah my birthday was back in early February. We tried to have my party over winter break but one of my friends was away. We decided to wait to spring break. Usually we have like 5 things a day to do over the weekends so we decided to just wait so we could do it for a little longer.

    Thanks for the happy birthday.

  509. davidafan4ever says:

    kimk I think it means he got surronded in a mob.

    Okay going 2 track practice. BBL

  510. GG_archudoors (David & Me - 8/17/2008 - CLT, NC!) says:

    #535/ Love this one too! :)
    ___________________________________________________________________________

    We want to give David & Ray (tour manager) a HUGEEEEE MALAYSIAN WELCOME! So, as many people as possible.

    Regarding taking pics/getting autographs with David, please do not place high hopes on that. The MAIN PURPOSE we’re going to the airport is to give David a warm welcome, which he deserves. And even though the flight from Singapore may be short, he may still be tired from all the traveling, so let’s cut him some slack and just show him our support without expecting anything in return. I think he has done enough by sharing his gift in music and travelling all the way here.

  511. GG_archudoors (David & Me - 8/17/2008 - CLT, NC!) says:

    Good Morning PSP!

    And a MOST HAPPY AND FUN BIRTHDAY to DAF4Ever!!!!!! :)

  512. pam05 says:

  515. pam05 says:
