Beautiful Handmade Autographed Quilt Throw and Pillow for Auction to Benefit Rising Star Outreach: Sneak Peek

Hearts and Hands (Angels For A Cause)

PRESS RELEASE:

Date: September 11, 2009 Contact: Sharon McManus

Release Date: IMMEDIATE e-mail: sharonkmcmanus@charter.net

NEWS RELEASE

QUILT TO BENEFIT RISING STAR OUTREACH

INSPIRED BY DAVID ARCHULETA

During the seventh season of American Idol, people across the world came to know and love the beautiful voice and talent of 18 year old vocal artist David Archuleta. For the past year, Archuleta has traveled across the United States, into Canada, and overseas to Malaysia, Singapore, the UK, and the Philippines sharing his voice and music with his rapidly growing fan base.

When not performing on stage, David uses his voice and spirit for another purpose. He works diligently to raise awareness and encourage participation in charities to benefit others. David’s inspirational message and giving spirit, have propelled many into positive action in support of his targeted charities. The organization “Angels For A Cause,” composed of David Archuleta fans works cooperatively or in teams to achieve designated goals.

One of David’s identified charities, RISING STAR OUTREACH (RSO), works to improve the lives of individuals affected with leprosy in India. Funding is currently being sought to build and furnish a new school for the children in the leper colony. Fueled by desire for RSO to reach its goal, a team of “Angels For A Cause” members called “Hearts & Hands” have worked to create something very unique and special.

With contributions of supplies, embroidery, and construction efforts from team members nationwide, a “David inspired” quilted throw and pillow have been lovingly created. The two pieces include hand embroidered “fan chosen David Archuleta phrases” and were both autographed by David himself on August 8th, 2009. At this time, he expressed great appreciation for the efforts being made to benefit RSO. Both items titled “Gifts From The Heart,” will be auctioned and will also include the (soon to be released) David Archuleta Christmas album “CHRISTMAS FROM THE HEART”(currently available by preorder on Amazon.com).

Bids for the items can be placed separately on e-bay.com from October 1st at 12midnight ET through October 10th with the auction ending on October 10th, 2009 at 12 midnight ET.

ALL proceeds to benefit RSO.

IT STARTED WITH DAVID:

I can hardly put into words what David has meant to me and how he has inspired me.  I wish I was a better writer.  But, I’ll do my best to tell my story.  Let me start by saying that I don’t want to sound like I’m sharing my sob story.  I have so many blessings.  I have the most wonderful husband that anyone could ever ask for, and I’m very close to my parents and siblings.  We’re all healthy and have everything we need.  What more can a person want?

However, I have been searching my whole life……searching for  meaning….searching for purpose…searching for a place to belong….searching for friends.  I have never shared this with anyone outside my immediate family, and I’m embarrassed to share it now.  But, I’m going to take the risk and let myself be vulnerable.  I have always been a little lonely.  I have never really had many friends, though I’ve tried and tried.  I guess I just don’t really fit in.  There is just something different about me.  I truly don’t know what it is, but people don’t usually seem to like me very much.  I don’t really relate to them and apparently they don’t relate to me.

David has begun to fill the void of my loneliness.  I can relate to him like no other person I have ever met.  I completely understand his kindness, his desire to always do what is right, his innocence, his shyness, his awkwardness, his desire to help those who are suffering, and his belief in God.  I have always wanted friends, and David has led me to a group of people from all over the world with similar hearts.  Though I don’t know many of them well, I feel a connection to them.  I hope some of them might become the friends I’ve never really had.

I have also always wanted to make a difference in the world.  I want my life to mean something.  My attempts in the past have never been very fulfilling. Again David has “Saved the Day.” He led me to Rising Star Outreach.  He asked for our help, and there is NO WAY I can let him down after all he has done for me.  I have been doing everything I know how to do to raise awareness and raise money for RSO.  It is also my goal to go to India and help in the Leprosy colonies within the next two years.  I know that it will be a life changing experience and that my life will finally have really been a life that matters….a life that changes other lives….a life that existed for a reason.  I am so thankful that God has used David to reach me and give me a worthy purpose.

I hope that others who are reading my story will also do what they can to help Rising Star Outreach.  It will mean so much to David and especially mean so much to those that are suffering in the leprosy colonies.  Please do what you can.

ArchuRandomness: Chelsey Had a Good Omen Last Night

So GUESS WHAT we sang in church today? Guess, just guess. Did you guess “America The Beautiful”? ‘Cause that’s what it was, guys. AMERICA THE FREAKIN’ BEAUTIFUL. And I got to sing it, guys!! With my whole church. And I was all bubbling up with happiness and when I saw that we were going to sing it and jumped my mom knew why. She’s a fangirl now. I’m so proud. I love her. She walked out of her bedroom wearing her I Love David Archuleta shirt yesterday. You should have seen the look on my dad’s face…. nevermind. But “America The Beautiful”. This has to be some good omen or something. I can’t wait for tonight, guys! He’s gonna be amazing!!!!!!!

    David Archuleta Fashion

    Sunday, September 13, 2009

    It’s official! David Archuleta was voted the most fashionable American Idol after an intense round of voting. His fans definitely should not be underestimated! He has a loyal following. David Archuleta stood out from the rest because of his simple, understated style.

    The key to David Archuleta’s style is simplicity. He usually rocks a simple combo of jeans and a t-shirt with usually just one extra item to complement the look. Simple, understated, but flattering. He may add a blazer or jacket. A very all-American, guy next door kind of look. But it works. Over the next few weeks we’ll take a look at a what makes his style unique and how you can recreate it yourself for cheap.

    David Archuleta sings America the Beautiful at the US Open women’s final

    September 14, 1:59

    AMNY Classical Music Examiner Tina Molly Lang

    David Archuleta opened the US Open women’s final with a soaring rendition of America the Beautiful, joined by the United States Marine Corps Six Communications Batallion Brooklyn, New York.

    As usual, David Archuleta’s vocals were spot on, as his interpretation had a quasi-pop, soulful, R&B vibe to it. The accompaniment was simple piano chords. The harmony was a bit classical (like a Protestant hymn) but also a bit gospel.

    The most appealing aspect of David Archuleta’s voice is that it suits pop, classical, and R&B equally well.

    David Archuleta’s flag was the perfect complement to the Marine Corps’ opening of the American flag. David Archuleta and the Marine Corps were a fitting beginning to a tremendous US Open final match between Kim Clijsters and Caroline Wozniacki.

    Thank you Andrea. . . I was just about to post a comment about Richard’s beautiful music on the RSO video-you must have been reading my mind.

    WOW! David’s performance of “America the Beautiful” was so amazing. I’ve watched and listened many times since last night.

  47. JoyF(I have the KEY to David) says:

    My heart is filled to the brim with love and pride for our David this morning. Every time I watch the video of his singing ATB, tears stream down my cheeks. I feel so fortunate to have been one of those who saw the potential in David during AI7 and I’m so happy with the direction he is taking in his career. I have been witness to so many proud moments on this journey, but last night was one of the top 5 for sure.

    David was so handsome in that outfit and his hair was perfect. Hooray for his new sylist!

    ~Morning Candy… Yes! I sent my daughter two videos this morning via e-mail…Kanye West’s exhibition of the most tasteless behavior that I’ve ever seen….and David Archuleta singing the most beautiful rendition of America the Beautiful that I’ve ever heard….I labeled it “from the ridiculous to the sublime”…what a contrast!

    Funny David is such a class act! Off to tweet again. tweet happy!

  51. Attitude/Candy says:

    Im not only in awe of his performances, the buzz is just as overwhelming! I hope Jive is keeping a watchful eye on it! I hope they stand up and take notice!

  52. GG_archudoors says:

    hello team!!

    comment on the us open fanbook page… let them hear how we felt about david’s performance!

  53. NorthCarolinaGirl♥Marylee (finally met Mr. Hotchuleta in Greensboro and will never be the same) says:

    ~JoyF… my first reaction to the outfit was…that’s not David…a little too “preppy” for my taste…but on second look, I realized it was perfect for the occasion. Let’s face it, David can wear anything and look gorgeous…last night was an exceptional look for him!…very handsome. :wink:

  54. Attitude/Candy says:

    48/Joy- Im loving what the stylist did, of course she had a gorgeous subject to work with. He was dressed so appropriate, hair looked great, what else can we say.. he was PERFECTION!!

  55. GG_archudoors says:

    48/ i’m almost all squueeeed out on account of david this morning joy f! he just comes through every time…. he makes it so effortless to love and support him…

  56. GG_archudoors says:

    47/ hey kristin!

  57. Kristin says:

    Hi GG! How are you? :)

  58. Attitude/Candy says:

    I hope he got his TV jitters out before the taping on Thursday…with all the performing he does, TV still seems to make him nervous for a nanosecond.

  59. NorthCarolinaGirl♥Marylee (finally met Mr. Hotchuleta in Greensboro and will never be the same) says:

    ~David’s voice resonated throughout the arena like nothing I’ve ever heard! I could barely sit still last night while watching…to think that he stood there in front of thousands of people with nothing but a piano behind him…and belted out those words to the amazement of everone within hearing distance…gee whiz..how much prouder will I ever be of this beautiful person?!!♥

  60. GG_archudoors says:

    good morning team archuleta!

    please stop by mj’s big blog and leave the cp some love – lots of it on his posted performance! :-) we have backed a winner, and a class act, so let’s drop some love nuggets on the site…. :-)

    http://mjsbigblog.com/

  61. Attitude/Candy says:

    Ha David just tweeted about his outfit, too funny He lurks!

  62. NorthCarolinaGirl♥Marylee (finally met Mr. Hotchuleta in Greensboro and will never be the same) says:

    ~Morning Kristin♥

  63. Attitude/Candy says:

    61/songket-WOOZA!!! The quality…

  64. pam05 (GOBSMACKED BY THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN VOICE) says:

    David Archuleta was voted the most fashionable American Idol!!! Whoot! Whoot!!! Great job everyone :D

  65. Attitude/Candy says:

    Hi Kristin- Sorry I missed you popping on earlier, Ive been so lost in all the articles. How are you?

  66. Kristin says:

    Hey Candy! Doing well, how about you? Finally enjoying some nice weather?

  67. GG_archudoors says:

    61/ hey songket – keep ‘em coming :-)

    60/ hi marylee!

    my boyfriend said the same thing last night.. he always wonders how such a small guy can just ”blow”, or really sing like that, and his voice just fill up spaces as large as indoor and outdoor venues…. david has a voice so versatile it conforms and adapts beautifully to whatever venue he’s performing in… there is something about watching him stand in the middle of a huge arena, and just engulf it with that voice… sublime, majestic, soulfully stirring – a stage fit for a crown prince.

  68. Attitude/Candy says:

    Pam05-Yep that he was, and his look last night, proved that we were right! I forget what all they have said the winner would get as far as exposure, Being featured I think was one thing…

  69. pam05 (GOBSMACKED BY THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN VOICE) says:

    Oh my heck, the internet is buzzing about the man himself and I can’t keep up with all these comments. ha,ha,
    g2g I have alot of stuff to do today, have a great day everyone :D

  70. GG_archudoors says:

    66/ woot woot pam05! kudos to all who voted :-)

  71. JoyF(I have the KEY to David) says:

    Just my opinion….I think preppy is a great look for David. He’s nearly 19 and although he looks mighty fine in a pair of jeans and t-shirt, this kind of outfit makes him appear more mature. His persona is one of wholesomeness and the preppy look goes hand in hand with that persona. I hope to see him in more clothes like this.

    BTW: I get goosebumps every time I hear the crowd roar for David when his name is announced at the end of the video. So many people are just now discovering our young man. I think he’s going to be huge…hopefully not in a Miley kind of huge, but in a Josh Groban or Celine kind of huge. Filling stadiums such as the one he performed in last night is going to become the norm for David someday..I just know it. :D

  72. Mary Jersey Girl {Waiting to see David in November!} says:

    Good morning all!!!!!!!!!!

  73. Attitude/Candy says:

    68/Kristin-Yes, finally! We have had two days of sun, took 8 days of gloom, rain, wind, to finally see the sunlight!

  74. suttygal/joanieMN says:

    Hi everyone!
    It’s a very exciting day! The big promo for the auction of the “David quilted throw and pillow” all begins today!! David gives so much to his fans, and promoting an auction which will benefit one of his targeted charities is one of the best ways we can give back to him! Let’s work hard to also get the buzz out about this project! We are attempting to get this action to a trending topic status on twitter, so if you have a twitter account, maybe you could send a few extra tweets today about this project ?! If you send tweets, please include this phrase with a hashtag : #DavidArchuletaRSOQuilt Thanks everyone!

    Sharon (Gmax4) have I ever told you how grateful I am that we’ve become friends through David?? I probably haven’t told you enough, but I am forever thankful that I have an amazing new special friend in YOU!!! Thank you for the opportunity to work on this great project to benefit RSO! I will always be especially thankful for all of the special people that have come into my life “because of David!” I love the quilted throw and pillow and I know the money raised for the children in India through this will make a big difference!! They will be blessed! :)

    American Idol Fashion
    at Sunday, August 30, 2009
    American Idol has become a phenomenon of American pop culture. Some of the biggest stars on the music scene today had their starts on the show. American Idol has seen its share of fashion statements over the years as. It is customary for contestants to undergo a complete makeover during the course of the show. As much as we have loved some of the women’s fashion on American Idol, today we’re taking a poll to find out what male American Idol has the best fashion sense. From clean cut, to rocker, to just plain eclectic, we have seen a little bit of everything in American Idol Fashion. The winner of the poll will have a number of features on Men’s Fashion Deals and bragging rights, of course.

    WOOT Vicky-Nashville got tweeted by David, welcome to that exclusive club Vicki!!

  99. NorthCarolinaGirl♥Marylee (finally met Mr. Hotchuleta in Greensboro and will never be the same) says:

    ~Sutty…well said♥

    GMAX (Sharon)…thank you for your heartfelt story. I was so touched by it and the quilt and pillow are beautiful! It is obvious that, not only hard work, but much love went into that project for a truly worthy cause!
    God bless you and all those who took part in it…♥

  100. hollyre says:

    pam05 – on that fashion post it says David won and to watch for more pics and info on David’s style in the coming weeks.

  101. Attitude/Candy says:

    99/Pam05-Yay, you found it! Thanks!

    Good Morning Mhel- last night made me all the more excited for AC, it seems so far away that this is a good reminder of what we still have to look forward too. The forgotten concerts!

  102. Kristin says:

    Good Morning Marylee! If you watched the RSO promo video, did you recognize the music that Richard created?

  103. pam05 (GOBSMACKED BY THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN VOICE) says:

    We’ll have to keep an eye out for future David articles on that fashion site since he won :D

    g2g ^BYE everyone^

  104. Attitude/Candy says:

    Bye Pam05-catch ya later

  105. Kristin says:

    Mhel! ♥ How are you?

  106. kimk says:

    Candy hmm I feel the tide a turning and thanks to David as he sure knows how to raise the bar so folks don’t have much of a choice but to listen and take action. Kind of like science for the business folks. Equal reaction applies… when you show me what you have not only will support you but treat you like the king all your fans know you are. right or wrong but it seems that David is a very smart young man who knows you have to bring it first. Not the other way around for those who think give me all the accolades first then I will show you what I have (or maybe not in some cases) …smart very smart.

  107. kimk says:

    Pam Features on Men’s Fashion what?

    Like GQ??????

    Happy days with so much David buzz!!! I am still watching his performance over and over again!!

    Joanie you are so sweet…and I have loved getting to know you too!!!

    101- NC Mary!!! That was a very heartfelt story, I so agree. It wasn’t mine, however. It was someone
    from our team who wishes to remain anonymous. Being a part of this fantastic group of David fans has brought to us many endearing friendships and lasting memories.

    I hope all of you can go to RSO…and read a little more about this great organization that David is supporting!

    David inspired us all in some way to reach out to others and dig a little deeper to give of ourselves.

    The quotes that you and Janet embroidered were just beautiful. The best part about this project was that by giving to each other…in working for the children…we gave to ourselves. I consider you a very special friend.

    Now I hope we can make lots of money for those beautiful little children. Go FOD!!! Spread the word!!!

  194. angelbymyside says:

    Vicky-Nashville is in the BTBD club! Yea!!!

  195. Tina says:

    At work, so I’m just popping in for a second — but what an exciting morning. Woo, David! Watched that performance more times than I could count last night and never got tired of it. I’m so proud to be a David fan :D

    GG/183: Thanks so much for the link to those pictures! Huong does indeed post the best photos. Those first few are HUGE! I clicked on one to show it in true size and the horse almost took up my entire screen! LOL. I know that horse is big, but gosh!!

    :lol:

    Hope everyone is having a marvelous Monday!!

  196. Tina says:

    CM/195: LOLOL! “Why do I have a job when all I want to do is watch this beautiful young man and hear his voice???? Gahhhhhhh!!” I agree with that 100% :D

    Some days I feel like the job is a means to an end — get me money to go see said young man in person!! Other days (read:after noon!!) I really enjoy my job and get a lot of fulfillment out of it. :D But David definitely factors in there!!

  197. Tina says:

    Okay, I better get back to that “fulfilling” job! Chat you all later!!

    Good morning everyone.

    If the whole thing was a publicity stunt for the VMA’s, the VMA’s have no class.

    Last night David Archuleta proved again he has class, pipes, and so much more.

    Me and my DAPod (its not an Ipod anymore) are going out to mow the lawn. bbl

    David Archuleta Fashion

    Sunday, September 13, 2009

    It’s official! David Archuleta was voted the most fashionable American Idol after an intense round of voting. His fans definitely should not be underestimated! He has a loyal following. David Archuleta stood out from the rest because of his simple, understated style.

    The key to David Archuleta’s style is simplicity. He usually rocks a simple combo of jeans and a t-shirt with usually just one extra item to complement the look. Simple, understated, but flattering. He may add a blazer or jacket. A very all-American, guy next door kind of look. But it works. Over the next few weeks we’ll take a look at a what makes his style unique and how you can recreate it yourself for cheap.

    David Archuleta Performs America The Beautiful (U.S. Open Women’s Final)

    Oh, I’d forgotten just how gorgeous David Archuleta’s voice is… I bet some of his uber-fans had a transcendental experience listening to this…

    David Archuleta Performs “America The Beautiful” On US Open

    David Archuleta sang “America The Beautiful” at the US Open … & oo, did he ever. Gorgeous! Very pretty. Something about his voice set to an image of the American flag just fits. If that wasn’t enough, David’s Christmas album Christmas From The Heart comes out October 13th.

    David Archuleta sings America the Beautiful at the US Open women’s final

    September 14, 1:59

    AMNY Classical Music Examiner – Tina Molly Lang

    David Archuleta opened the US Open women’s final with a soaring rendition of America the Beautiful, joined by the United States Marine Corps Six Communications Batallion Brooklyn, New York.

    As usual, David Archuleta’s vocals were spot on, as his interpretation had a quasi-pop, soulful, R&B vibe to it. The accompaniment was simple piano chords. The harmony was a bit classical (like a Protestant hymn) but also a bit gospel.

    The most appealing aspect of David Archuleta’s voice is that it suits pop, classical, and R&B equally well.

    David Archuleta’s flag was the perfect complement to the Marine Corps’ opening of the American flag. David Archuleta and the Marine Corps were a fitting beginning to a tremendous US Open final match between Kim Clijsters and Caroline Wozniacki.

    Completely random post. My 19yo loved his first concert experience on Saturday. (He & his brothers went to see Def Leppord) I asked him if he got into the spirit of the thing. He said that he stood and clapped during
    ♫ Lay Some Sugar On Me ♫ but that he’s not into the whole dancing thing. :lol: Asked him if he’s willing to go to a David concert with me now. He rolled his eyes and said, “David is s-o-o-o not rock.” :lol: What can I say…he’s young.

    Guys, has any artist moved you in this way???? What is happening to us! Why does David create these feelings in us!!! I’ve only met him once and I feel like his mother with such deep emotions for him!!!! I am so happy for him AND so happy for us who have been there for him and have supported and believed in him! In a bit I am going to search his name on the internet to raise his rank! :)

    Hi Karla!
    Hi Burkey!
    Hi hollyre!
    Hello to all :)

    LCT ~ I feel the same way you do. I have a hard time putting into words my feelings for David. His talent is incredible and I can’t wait for what the future brings in his career. But I also find his character very endearing. He treats others with grace and dignity. He is a rare gem in the music industry filled with large egos (Kanye West comes to mind). I am honored to be David’s fan.

    250/ you’re welcome…. keep those gorgeous pictures of david coming :)

  255. LCT says:

    Don’t you feel like he’s a part of our family??? He is so simple and down to earth – that I think that’s what endears him to us! As popular as he’s becoming – he takes us with him as if he needs us by his side for moral support. It’s so rare for an artist to do that with his fans!

  256. Attitude/Candy says:

    Hi ta-you sure have that right, David should model for Ralph Lauren, well if this “music thing” doesnt work out,
    you never know …I cant believe he really said that!

  257. Attitude/Candy says:

    what wacked the site out??

  258. GG_archudoors says:

    255/ hi ta :) there are so many articles and links and videos with buzz, you’ll feel like you were here :)

    take some time and go through them, and leave as much love in comments for the crown prince as possible!

    go david!!!

  259. songket says:

    If interested to see what David was refering to in his tweet :

    @davidarchie : Wow awesome shot by. Roger Federer! Good game between Federer and Djokovic.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1M4FqT7RAwo

    Hehe :D

  260. GG_archudoors says:

    260/ i dunno…. i don’t see any especially long links or comments… it’s been a little off like this the last couple days….

  261. Attitude/Candy says:

    Houng-your photos are amazing! Some of the best I have seen.

  262. kimk says:

    Yep site is whacky….umm my exuberance?

    Huong oh love those videos! hmm fav so far is JessieQ but all are wonderful!

  263. kimk says:

    Songkets link #243
    Just Jared Jr comment by keN says it all for me….just saying.

  264. Attitude/Candy says:

    when David closes his eyes and sings…it’s all over! What was ALW thinking??? Seriously!

  265. sj says:

    kimk – I went in to get you but I couldn’t find the way out. lol

    gg – I don’t think they are posting any David comments on that USopen fanbook site – I left one last night
    and even commented on the match, but it has never shown up. I don’t see any comments mentioning David at all.

  266. GG_archudoors says:

    268/ hi sj!

    hmmmmmm… i wonder if they only want sports related comments, and are filtering out the rest – oh well…. :D

    plenty other places out there for us to leave david the kudos!

  267. Angelgal3 says:

    Hi all! I’m still basking in all the glory that is America the Beautiful from last night. I must have listened to it at least a dozen times today already. Just pure beauty. Too bad I have to go to work soon because I’d just sit here all day and watch videos from last night,lol. :)

  268. Attitude/Candy says:

    My back just wont quit so Im going to go take a walk, BBL :)

  269. sj says:

    Hi gg :)

    Think I might send the link to the ATB performance to some friends – I try not to be too pushy – some carefully placed pushes are good though and I think this performance is just the ticket. ;)

    Well better get something done today – check y’all later!

  270. LCT says:

    GG, I posted one too and I haven’t seen it!

  271. suttygal/joanieMN says:

    Whoa! The site is wonky! How’d that happen? Huong/ Thanks for all of the awesome pictures!

  272. Hi everyone:

    I wanted to share my 9/11 Tribute To Honor Video I created last night and set to David singing the most beautiful rendition of America, The Beautiful that it gave me chills, goosebumps and such an amazing feeling. I love this song and now I LOVE LOVE LOVE David singing this song.

    I hope you all like it:

  273. ☮peacesign ♥~ (Is it October 13th yet? I just can't wait! )Pam says:

    HI!

    David was so incredibly incredible last night! I watched for 5 1/2 hrs…I just could not stop myself..over and over and over….

    I got up this morning…had to see it again….and the goosebumps are still here….He blew our socks off!

    Like sis said…David is winning over the music world, one performance at a time……..sigh

  274. suttygal/joanieMN says:

    Loved your video Jen! And YES! It is THE most beautiful rendition I’ve ever heard! :)

  275. If anyone wants the photo edit i did of America, The Beautiful with a photo of David set to the flag in the background, which you see at the end of the video, you can download it here:

  276. ta says:

    258 LCT, I think that everyone here (incl. me) feels the same as you do. I just wish that other people will understand us someday & don’t think that we are …..
    whatever, hehe.
    I just want everyone to love him, if it’s possible.
    My niece 14 yrs. doesn’t understand me . She said DA was OK, but she doesn’t listen to his songs (sad face). I think she just listens to whatever her friends do. I gifted her DA’s album, she said thank you, but never downloaded it.
    I started to watch Disney & Nick.. channel sometimes, just to check them out. These shows are full of young kids & funny. They’re on TV everyday. All the young actors & actresses are all group together like close friends (I can’t think of English word now). Miley, Demi & Selena, Jonas’ Zac & others……have a lot of shows, music, appearances etc together. What I mean is, it is very hard for David that is one single artist, to get a lot of attention from young kids or fans because they’re too busy with ones who are on these shows.
    It’s also hard for DA to get a lot of interests from adult groups because he looks young.

    GG, I have to take the time to watch the videos & pictures & read all the buzzz & make the comments, hehe.

  277. suttygal/joanieMN says:

    Hi Pam!! That’s so true, Andrea is right! He’s winning the rest of the world over one performance at a time! :) My sound isn’t maybe quite as good, but I did a little more zooming. It looks great full screen HD :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkLaguLNMHU He’s THE BEST!!!

  279. LCT says:

    Ta, what gets me is I meet so many parents who want their children to be “well behaved, smart, and have good morals” however, they don’t care for David’s personality and his good morals and values! Duh, then I don’t understand! You want those qualities for your children but you don’t want them in an artist you follow!!!! That’s purely selfish! I raised my son to love an artist not only for the music but for their personality AND I am so proud of how he turned out! The secret to raising good children is to model good ways, behaviors, and interests!

  280. ta says:

    284 LCT, It’s too bad that the popular one today is the one who has not good moral or manners, for example, Kayne W. from last night award show.

    287 songket, haha, thanks for the pole.

  284. Angelgal3 says:

    So true LCT. Many kids today love artists like Kanye,Eminem,etc. because they think they’re so “cool”. I do know some teens that love David though too. My niece is 14 and she loves a variety of music from people like Ne-Yo,Kanye,Boys Like Girls,Sara B.,and David. One thing she always says is that she doesn’t “see or hear” from David anymore. She’s busy with school and alot of sports so she doesn’t go online alot and therefore isn’t aware of anything new with him until I tell her. She thinks he’s great though.

  285. ta says:

    288 Oops! I meant thanks for the link to http://www.portraitmagazine.net/
    lol

  286. LCT says:

    Angelgal, keep encouraging the “David” type of artists who will teach her to love, feel, and be passionate about life! I am so glad I did and for that I have the most wonderful young man that I am so proud to call my son! :) I think that’s why I love David so much! He is such a wonderful role model for our youth today!

  287. Angelgal3 says:

    I will LCT. I agree with everything you’ve said. David is actually one of her favs too. I took her and a couple of her friends to see him at the AI tour and at one of the Jingle balls last year and they loved him. It’s the antics of people like Kanye last night that make me love David all the more.

    Thanks ABMS for the link to that review. It was very nice and very true! :)

  290. Angelgal3 says:

    Nice review. Well,I’ve got to run to work so I can make some $$ for Daivd’s winter tour. I hope we get some dates soon. I’m so glad I have ABT to listen to until the Christmas album comes out. LOL. Have a good one everyone and I’ll BBL!

  291. ta says:

    Hi Jennifer, I love your pictures & vid. You’re very talented.
    Hi, angelgal3, sj, peacesign
    Thanks everyone for all the pics, news, vids. I have to catch up with all these excitement.
    See you guys later. Have fun.

  292. rosieM says:

    Hello everyone…I only have a few minutes before I have to go to work, but I just wanted to say OMG David was AWESOME at the US OPEN. I have been listening to it as much as I can while at work and it gives me chills everytime. I am so proud of him :)

  293. GG_archudoors says:

    293/ that review is all kinds of wowo… she captures and articulates what many of us have been saying all along about david.

    great find abms ! :)

  294. JoyF(I have the KEY to David) says:

    I sent the link of David singing ATB to my ex-boss. She replied, “What an honor for David AND for the crowd. It was beautiful!!”

    I also told her about David answering my tweet. She said, “Joy, I can always say I knew you when!!!!!! When you were just a mother and wife living in Auburn, before David took you away!!!!!!” :lol:

  295. angelbymyside says:

    GG / 299 ~ It is so nice to see the great press David has been receiving from last night’s amazing performance.

    I loved this paragraph in the article… “Yet it would be unfair to pigeon-hole David Archuleta as a power balladeer. His vocal strengths also come from the versatility of his voice. He has a voice that suits classical, gospel, pop, or R&B. His interpretation of America the Beautiful had an interesting soulful R&B quality, yet it would have worked accompanied by an orchestra, a gospel choir, or a band.”

  296. angelbymyside says:

    More buzzzz about last night’s performance……

    http://justjaredjr.buzznet.com/2009/09/14/david-archuleta-performs-at-us-open/

  297. JoyF(I have the KEY to David) says:

    So cool.. My Corey is showing Kristyl (his niece) video footage from his first concert on youtube. They’re comparing notes. Of course,
    David isn’t included in the conversation because they’re talking “rock” concerts. :D

    Kristyl is 7 months younger than Corey but she’s a couple of years ahead of him in life experiences. I get such a kick out of them interacting
    with each other.

  298. hollyre (David=JOY) says:

    GG – Can I just say that I am more than thrilled at all the buzz surrounding David’s performance last night? I am simply amazed.

  299. angelbymyside says:

    Just watched Constantine Maroulis from AI4 sing God Bless America at the opening of the Men’s Finals of the US Open. NO ONE CAN SING PATRIOTIC SONGS LIKE DAVID ARCHULETA!!

  300. GG_archudoors says:

    305/ still squeeeing myself hollyre!

    306/ honey, don’t get me started on constantine… ughhhhh :D was he at least in tune, hahahahah

  301. Kimk says:

    Angel. Oh yes he was supposed to sing today. I saw him sing recently on Regis and yep David is king.
    I live the review you posted! So many are pouring in and great too!

  302. ta says:

    306 agbms, hi, did you see him sing the whole song? I just saw the end of the song.

  303. GG_archudoors says:

    we’re keeping the support and love going – ya’ll ready? heck yeah! that performance last night makes doing this so easy :-)

    ta/309 ~ I tuned into him singing midway through the song. Can’t say his singing did much for me.

    kimk/308 ~ I have not read one review about David’s performance at the US Open that has not been favorable.

  305. pattiNC says:

    I am surprised Constantine even agreed to sing knowing that David was going to sing first! haha No one can top David’s performance!

    we truly are spoiled by David’s beautiful voice, aren’t we? ;)

  310. angelbymyside says:

    pattiNC ~ Originally David was supposed to sing for the Men’s Finals but due to the rain delays postponing the finals until today, they had David sing last night and I am glad he did. The stadium was filled to capacity last night and today it is a late arriving crowd due to it being a work day. And you are soooo right…no one can top David’s brilliant performance.

    David Archuleta Fashion

    Sunday, September 13, 2009

    It’s official! David Archuleta was voted the most fashionable American Idol after an intense round of voting. His fans definitely should not be underestimated! He has a loyal following. David Archuleta stood out from the rest because of his simple, understated style.

    The key to David Archuleta’s style is simplicity. He usually rocks a simple combo of jeans and a t-shirt with usually just one extra item to complement the look. Simple, understated, but flattering. He may add a blazer or jacket. A very all-American, guy next door kind of look. But it works. Over the next few weeks we’ll take a look at a what makes his style unique and how you can recreate it yourself for cheap.

    hey GG

  329. GG_archudoors says:

    337/ hello karla – how are you doing? :)

  330. Attitude/Candy says:

    hmmmm Charice is on her way to LA…so is someone we all know and love…Duet?? Just a wild off the wall thought,

  331. Attitude/Candy says:

    she is flying there to record, naturally my mind jumped ahead to David and the ALMA’s

  332. Attitude/Candy says:

    DA is taking Mama to the ALMA’s!! Woot!

  333. KarlaVenezuela says:

    hello??

  334. KarlaVenezuela says:

    GG: i`m great and you??
    Candy: is that true?? btw how are you???

  335. Attitude/Candy says:

    343/Hi Karla-the only part that I know to be true is David taking momma to the ALMA’s. The rest is just my mind spinning wildly out of control.

  336. Kimk says:

    Candy I did hear there may be a duet at the ALMA’s? Where did you hear David was taking Lupe to the ALMA’s?
    On my phone here. Thanks.

  337. KarlaVenezuela says:

    hello??????????????

  338. GG_archudoors says:

    344/ hi candyyy – david and his mom are going to the alma’s? that’s nice :)

  339. JoyF(I have the KEY to David) says:

    Wouldn’t it be great if Lupe & David did a duet?

  340. suttygal/joanieMN says:

    Awesome! David and Lupe will be at the Almas. Did I miss a tweet or something? Or was it written somewhere? :)
    It makse me remember David’s story about when he was in the Honduras and was unable to finish singing a song,
    and his mom stood in and finished the song. I’d love for them to sing together one day. Lupe has a beautiful voice.
    There’s something about a son expressing love for his mama that is so wonderful! :)

  341. JoyF(I have the KEY to David) says:

    #349 suttygal: I got a lump in my throat & tears threatened to spill when he referred to Lupe as Mama yesterday. I think it
    was a slip because he immediately corrected himself and said Mom. It’s such an endearing. and personal title, and shows the close bond he
    has with Lupe. I love it when my kids call me Mama but that isn’t often. Usually it’s just Mom. I hate it when they call me
    “Mother.” :lol:

  342. kimk says:

    Oh I hope that Lupe does go!!!

    Hello guys!! Are they flying to LA right now?

  345. kimk says:

    Candy a christmas song may be too early yet. are you sure Lupe is going? I sure hope so! eeeek so excited!!!!!!

  346. Attitude/Candy says:

    I also think the trials and tribulations of late have brought David and Lupe have even closer, “lean on me” goes a long way, especially with family.

  347. Kristin says:
