Fan Sees Eva Cassidy Peform Live
In anticipation of Margret’s interview, FOD’er KT emailed me a beautiful, poignant story about seeing Eva Cassidy perform live and then experiencing the power of David Archuleta.
The Call that Did not Happen
It was Friday afternoon and I was tired from a long week at work filled with deadlines and office politics and I needed a break. My boyfriend called and echoed similar sentiments and we decided that a Friday night filled with soulful music was in order. But what plans can be made at the last minute…where can we go to receive the much needed break from our hectic schedule? There were a few places in town that occasionally featured bluesy soulful singers but neither of us had to energy to call around so we decided to go to Fleetwoods, a club in town owned and operated by Mick Fleetwood which provided an excellent venue for regional artists to perform. I offered to call Fleetwoods just to check who was performing but the decision was made to just take our chances and go.. We were escorted to seats fairly close to the stage and slumped into the chairs when the waitress greeted us for our order. We anxiously asked what band was playing and as she named the band we were slightly disappointed, not because the band was bad…no they were good but they simply weren’t a bluesy soulful band. We lamented that we should have called ahead and agreed to do so next time. Soon, however, we discovered that had we made that call we might have missed an amazing, unforgettable experience.
I Would Like to Invite a Guest Vocalist to Join us on Stage
The band started playing and was greeted warmly by a sold out Friday night crowd. The crowd mostly listened to the band but also ate their dinner and talked to friends at nearby tables. About half way through the first set, the lead singer said that she wanted to invite a guest vocalist to join them on stage and motioned to someone from the back of the room to join the band.
I looked back and saw a pretty but plain woman, with her face almost devoid of any expression, walking to the stage. Her body language suggested she rather be at home reading a good book than walking up to that stage. I remember thinking oh this doesn’t look too good and almost feeling embarrassed for her in advance..
Dropping Jaws
As the guest vocalist got up to the stage and strapped the guitar around her shoulder; the two singers looked at each other and nodded as if to say let’s get this party started.
The minute the guest vocalist started to sing my jaw dropped to the ground in awe. Simply put I was blown away. All of a sudden, eating stopped, conversation subsided and all eyes turned towards the stage in disbelief as to what we were hearing. I looked around at the others in the audience wondering whether they were feeling the same and I could tell by the looks on their faces that they were mesmerized. At the end of the song, the lead vocalist of the band said; “ladies and gentlemen, please give it up for Eva Cassidy”.
Left you Wanting More
Eva finished the rest of the first set and I hadn’t experienced anything like it before. By the response, I could tell the audience felt the same way…the collective feeling was palpable. Who was this person, where did she come from…why haven’t I heard of her before? I didn’t know the answers to those questions but did know one thing, that whenever we had the chance to hear her sing again, we would go. We were lucky to see her perform 6 more times before she lost her battle to cancer. I felt so sad that the rest of the world would not experience her special talent but I was thankfully wrong as the power of her gift was recognized on an international level and rightfully so. I felt so honored to have witnessed her talent in person.
I have always loved music. There were musicians that I appreciated, songs that I really connected with and certain performances that were memorable; but in retrospect, listening to Eva was the first time in my life that I had really felt someone’s music. I didn’t just hear it…I felt it. And there has been no other artist that has made me feel the same since, that is, until this year when I heard David sing.
Makes Perfect Sense
It made perfect sense to me when I heard David say that Eva was a special artist for him. I saw the comparisons immediately. Like Eva, in listening to David perform I noticed:
His music doesn’t originate from him or end with him but flows through him.
His humility and shyness on stage boldly states that this is not about me but the music
He does not want to compromise his convictions for the sake of a dollar or fame
His music is 3 dimensional affecting the body, mind and soul.
I feel his music. It doesn’t matter the venue, the song or the setting; every time he sings I feel his music. That is a special gift.
Why Do I Feel Like This
By any objective measure my life is blessed in so many ways. A couple of years ago I felt as though I was not living up to the important adage: to whom much is given much is expected. So I sought some advice from a very special person in my life, my uncle, who humbly served others for close to 50 years as a priest. We couldn’t sit in a restaurant, walk down a street, go to the theater or attend a sporting event without at least one person stopping to say hello and offer special wishes to my uncle. He touched so many lives that it was incomprehensible to me. I thought he could offer some valuable insight. He said that he would try to help but truth be told he was trying every day to earn his way into heaven and that he was no different than me or anyone else. His humility didn’t surprise me but I didn’t truly understand the importance of what he said until a couple months later. I received a devastating call that my beautiful uncle went to sleep and never woke up. Being overcome with sorrow, I traveled to his humble room and sat on his bed trying to come to grips with his passing. I saw a cross hanging above his bed and grasped it in my hands seeking comfort. I soon noticed that the back of the cross was engraved with the words, “Christ is Counting on You” and in that moment I completely understood that his challenge was so immense how could he believe that it would ever be achieved.
So as this year began, this young man named David Archuleta arrives and I couldn’t understand why he made me feel the way I did. I was somewhat baffled by it…I spent time trying to figure it out. I finally had an “ah ha” moment. I read a quote from someone attending one of the concerts that David said, ““This is why I do this. This is why I can’t get a big head, because it’s not coming from me. That’s what I like about it, it’s all in the music, you don’t have to say anything.” In that moment I remembered my uncle and knew that David understood that Christ is counting on him….and I can see, that he is delivering in a big way. Plain and simple: I felt uncomfortable because I had not made any noticeable progress in my effort to make a difference and the actions, words, deeds and voice of this seventeen year old provided a bold reminder.
One Regret
Writing something like this is very atypical for me as I am an intensely private person. But I share my experiences and thoughts for a couple of reasons.
I regret never telling Eva what her music meant to me and would like her family to know that she was so special and that her music really touched my life. I take frequent opportunities to share her special gift with my friends and family.
I was hopeful to have an opportunity to share this story with David in person. I wanted him to truly understand, from my perspective, how special he is and the contributions he is making. But it seems unlikely that I will meet him. I thought that if I didn’t write this now that I may never do so and felt it was important to share my sentiments and to offer him a humble thank you. It is my hope that this message makes it way to him.
What To Do with This
As for me…I have finally taken the step towards making a contribution. In another “ah ha” moment, after thinking about doing it for a couple of years…I finally made the call to volunteer at Make a Wish Foundation. It is a small but important first step.
Thank you for sharing that, KT!
Hugs
Margret sent me this video of a hug campaign with Eva’s “Imagine” playing in the background. Pay heed to the expression on some of these people’s faces. Life is beautiful. I’m going to hug a lot of people today.

My album is almost done! Hey guys! We’re getting close to making final decisions on which songs are going to go on the album, and it’s pretty exciting! The last few days have mainly been recording still, and just finalizing the songs to see which ones will be the best fit. If you’ve been reading the alloy.com blogs I’ve been doing, then you probably already know about what happened this weekend with my brother and sisters visiting to come to Miley Cyrus’s sweet 16. It was a lot of fun, and it was cool being able to spend some time with them. It was just unbelievable how big of a birthday party it was! I’ve never seen anything like that haha. I put some pictures up on the alloy blog, but I have some more to show to you guys too. So last night I helped out Brooke and her Husband, Dave, with rearranging their stuff in the bedroom haha. I don’t think I was a whole lot of help, but it was still fun. We listened to music, talked, and… moved stuff around lol. Brooke’s been in Arizona for the past week or so, so it’s nice to have her back! But she’s actually going to try and give me a haircut here before I leave to do some more recording. Brooke’s awesome haha. We only have a little bit of time for that though so I better get going and I’ll talk to you guys later! P.S. A song I’ve really liked lately is Little Things by Colbie Caillat. So if you’re looking for a song to listen to and you haven’t heard it before, you should check it out. |

David on Memphis radio station this morning!
If you missed the interview, here is the MP3! Wow! I was quick for once! Click the link below:
Click here to listen to the interview: q1075-interview
Q107.5 interviewed David early this morning. A brief recap:
- David misses the tour and being with everyone.
- He just started songwriting last week and hopes that some of his own songs will make it onto the album: those decisions are being made now.
- He doesn’t feel like he started singing too early in life: he really started to gain confidence in his performance when he learned how to sing with “soul” after watching Season 1 of American Idol.
- His dad is a “cool, laid-back guy” who “keeps me grounded.”
Thanks for the shout-outs to FOD this week, Q107.5!

I can’t believe I am the first one. Jenny good morning. You are up earlier!! The truth is I stayed up all night just to watch David’s videos again because I miss him very much. Ok, gotta go to bed now. When I wake up there will be a new David’s radio interview waiting for me. Life can’t get any sweeter than that. Bye now and good morning to the later early birds.
Hey Gengen Hope you are sleeping now! Miss him too.
Jenny Good Morning and I hope to hear the interview but it says I need an update so I’ll try later to get a link.
Marget Yay! BE THERE!
Good morning kimk, and good night, Gengen!
Good Morning all!
Just wanted to let you all know that I’m able to stream the Memphis radio station through Firefox. I had to install Silverlight, but that’s because I have a Mac. Hopefully you’ll be able to stream the station even if you don’t have IE.
Here’s the site’s main page. You can click “Listen” in the upper right. WHen I did this, it took me to a page where a chat box opened and there was video of the studio on the left. I minimized the chat box and was able to access the streaming link. For some of you, the streaming box might just show up.
http://www.q1075.com/kandk.htm
If David gets awesome, out-of-the-box questions, give your buddy Wendy and HUGE cyber hug. She submitted some great questions to the DJ’s and they’ve been talking about her (and FOD) all week!!! My only hope is that they don’t ask about Jeff…Just this ONE time!
~Becky
Thanks Jenny ,Becky for the great posts today! Looking forward to the chat tonight! David on Q1075 Yaeh Go Wendy!!
“I Scott, do pledge to vote my tail off on the Vh1 Countdown between now and late Friday night. I will vote for David Archuleta and only David Archuleta. I will get the job done. Not someone else… not some other time. Me. Now.”
Morning folks!
H i Scott, Becky, kimk, gengen! Working from home today
excited about the interview w/ Eva’s sister, and David’s this morning!
Wow, that was a wonderful story KT. Thanks for sharing. It is sad that most people don’t know abuot Eva. That is a huge compliment to David as well that you feel the same something special about him. I can’t remember who is collecting stories to give Oprah, but that would be a great one. It expresses what we see that others haven’t yet.
Getting a head start on my David duties…. finishing up the radio request list… on to xrank and VH1!
HEY LK08!
Hi ggdoors! Vote ,Vote vote!!
Hey Scott – you best believe I am!
So over the moon with all the good news about David so far this week….
ggdoors: I know.I am so pumped about everything! David Writing, signing with Azoff, this mornings interview, openhouseparty this weekend! so much going on!! Plus I’ve been hearing
“crush” more on the radio! Go David!
♥WoW! What a beautiful morning to start with. Thank you Jenny for the video, here’s my thought:
“This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.” – Psalm 118:24
♥How ironic the video I created for David and Eva started with hugs as well from David. Awesome!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oP764ssBBKQ
♥I have to read the Eva Cassidy story as I lurk from work. g2g now, can’t be late to work.
♥Good Morning my beloved and his Angels. Blessed day to all!
♥I need a hug from all, please send me one….here’s mine…(((((♥hug♥♥♥))))))….THANK YOU!☻
KT – I cant thank you enought for sharing this beautiful Storie. You moved me to tears. Eva and David both have -out of this wold- special voices. It comes through them as something special spiritual.
Your storie about your humble and unique uncle was very beautiful too. Sharing those stories goes straight into my heard, and makes me very very thankful to you- David and Eva. To go into 3 dimensional “which affects the body, mind and soul”, and being allowed to FEEL Davids music is really a special gift to all people who “gets it”.
Wow! What a great bunch of coconuts. Off to vote, request (Becky’s!) and try the link!
Scott My fingers have callouses how about yours? And I love it. Anything to help him! Have a great day!
Anet Great morning and I guess it is nighttime there? Body mind and soul yes!
Jenny and Becky Hey Have a great Day!!!!
Just popping in to wish everyone a good morning and wonderful day. I have been voting my index finger off. I look forward to the live chat tonight and the radio interview.
Oh, that pic of David (ANOTHER pic of sweat dripping down the side of his face), I can’t even begin to express what that means to me.*as eyes well up* What sheer dedication to his fans.
♥♥I just love David dearly and I know he feels that way about us.♥♥
Rika – ((((((♥BIG HUG♥))))))☺
I think I need a hug, too.

How are you all this morning?
Good Morning Jenny and Becky and everyone else! Looking forward another interview with David! WOO HOO! I love the fact that he is just all over the place these days. I thought once the tour was over I would have withdrawal, but thanks to FOD, it’s not so bad!!!
Hi Jenny! Doing good! Voting till our fingers are raw and loving it! Hope you have a great day!
Kmik – *WAVE* -No, but Good Afternon from here. Yes it is really special,- but fantastic -with this wonderful international site. Hei to the FODstaff and all FODer`s *WAVE*
KT – as I am typing the tears are streaming down my face. What a beautiful experience you have shared with us. Thank you.
No step that you take is ever too small! AND one step usually leads to another…
Hi Jenny! Doing pretty good! Knocking out some David duties – just finished the internet radio request list – cross referenced it with the one on IDF to make sure I didn’t miss any…. just living and loving life – in Archuleta nation
Good morning Becky and Jenny! Thanks for all the hard work as usual! My husband used to give me a hard time about all the volunteer time I put in at school, saying that if I would just go to work there I would have more free time and get paid for it! I bet your families are feeling that way about FOD now.
I am off to my paying gig now so I will miss the radio streaming but I will look forward to the post when I get home.
Wow, KT, what a story. I am so going to have to practice this writing thing if I continue to post here. Jenny you don’t teach that on the side do you? I would be a tough customer – I was math all the way. I know, I know what a geek!

So many great things happening to David, I’m so proud of him. And I could never THANK enough the FOD staff (Jenny,Becky, Gail, etc…) on the updates. THIS IS THE BEST FAN SITE EVER!!!!
I feel like a failed fan. Not enough hours in the day to do all my archuduties, but I try, especially the voting at VH1 which is the only thing I can do at work with out interrupting my job. Well got to go back to work

mhelchuleta LOL Crush is a GREAT song!
Scott HUH??? I heard him say something about coming back and singing a ditty but??
37/kimk-I’m not sure. . . I just logged on and have the station up on another tab. I’m not hearing the interview now, just some song that I don’t like! lol
Hi kimk, Kristin and everyone else I missed
41/kimk-Singing a “ditty but”??? lol What is that? haha
Hey Scott!
Guys I heard his voice and giggle and he said yeah sure about coming back on. That’s all I heard. By the way I hear a lot of new songs on the radio and I hope he releases a new song before the CD drops? Girl can hope no??
no interview yet. i think it will start at 9:00 am
hi kimk,kristin,scott,lucy and everybody!
hugs to all of you!
crush is on now!what a day!
Kristin The DJ asked if he would come back on and sing something. Yeah sure. He’s a cutie.
CRUSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am listening to the station and did not hear an interview yet. Did I miss it? I thought it was supposed to be at 9am central time?
Well . . . they ARE playing “Crush” right now!
Good morning!! is the interview over?, they are playing crush right now while typing
Somebody? Did he interview yet??
kimk-Has he been on yet or are they just playing the song? I NEED ANSWERS!!! lol
Hi mhelchuleta. Thanks I didn’t think it was on yet. Yeah “crush” playing now!
Ain’t going awyayayayay!!
Yes,lady, we did miss it!!
Oh boy!
#25 dldrva: Why yes, now that you mention it, I do teach Freshman Composition at my university (I also direct the tutoring center–that’s my full time job).
he’ll be back on at 9am Central. The DJ said he doesn’t interview well. I wonder what they asked him!
He said he doesn’t interview well. Guess he isn’t into the stuff you have on now? Lady is good though.
Jenny So how do you have time for this?
Guys I don’t like this station!!
Jenny-You mean THIS isn’t your full-time job? haha Boy, you are one dedicated person! How do you find all the time for us here on FOD? THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh my gosh this is so sad. I am crying.
kimk-Obviously a man who doesn’t know our David very well! The woman stuck up for him though!
64/kimk-No, No, No. . . no archutears today! Think of David and his smiling face!!
Kristin–Well, you know how ODD goes. You just find the time! (Usually very early in the morning!)
Kimk–Radio DJs have to be snarky, you know. Don’t worry. Trust the Archuleta.
Oh boy !! David is such a breath of fresh air. I am so glad I have found him.
Argh!
kimk :are you in tears for what the DJ said or for that phone call they just made to that womans boyfriend?
Guys You are very nice. Yes the best moment for me was when David sat down on the floor on AI and didn’t want to pick a side. Love him. I was very shy and always picked on and this stuff sends me over. I’m a wimp kind of. Hope he is back on but I’m afraid to listen now.
David has a very thick skin. He does not (and cannot, if he’s going to survive in the entertainment industry) let that stuff bother him. He knows who he is.
Morning all, did i miss the interview, what i miss? Is everything ok.
Scott I young lady’s sadness upset me. Not the DJ guy. I have been there. Ok now as my hub is fantastic but I guess I’m a mush head. My hub says I belong in the movie It’s a Wonderful Life. Throw back to another era.
The interview will happen around 9am Central time. It is currently 7:46 am Central.
69/scott-LOL
Jenny-You are so right! David seems to be able to handle all that comes his way and he handles it with such class. No worries here for him. He is one tough cookie!!
kimk :They are probably going to replay the interview. I’m sure David did great. The woman DJ
was nice and they played “crush” so that’s good.
Jenny Yep I am guessing that now I need one. lol Ok Enough soap box.
Goodmorning everyone.
KT, thank you so much for sharing your story. It has really helped me understand my own feelings and helped me feel better about them.
Shoot! So, I’m assuming that means 10 am Florida time! Dang it!
Good morning FOD e-family! I actually need to get to bed – it’s 2:45 am here! Wanted to stop by and thank KT for that beautiful story. David has inspired so many people in so many different ways! I am continually amazed at how many lives he has touched – I hope he knows that he is such a positive force for good in this world. I will miss the live interview and the radio one – hope they are posted later!
Thanks to Pam and Amanda for the great photos – always the best way to start or end any day!
I am teaching right now…my students are diligently writing a practice timed essay while I type, equally as diligently, on my computer. I appear to be very busy.
Wooo. Jenny, you are live bloggin this a.m. Good morninging! And thanks for all you do.
Kalei! Hi! I’m still trying to recover from your Tulsa pictures!
Hey Russ!
Scott The DJ lady was nice and the DJ on my station loves Davey too! Sorry about the emotional thing.
That was supposed to be “good morning”…..it is 5:50 here. Not awake so far….
Jenny Multitasker of the year!
Jenny-I wonder what your students would think if they really knew what you were doing! You’re the best!!
Kalei! Hi! I’m still trying to recover from your Tulsa pictures. GAGAGAGAGAGAGA.
Good morning all!! Jenny and Becky thanks for everything. Loved the story and photos today. Jenny, any pic with sweat droplets definitely needs a warning.
I have the urge to hug today.
Dang I missed the interview. I’m sure there will be a link soon.
Kristin, I had to make sure to turn the overhead LCD projector off so what I’m typing did not appear on the wall screen, enlarged 20 times. Can you imagine? Hmmmm….picture of David with sweat drops enlarged 20 times….
Hollyre: we both commented about sweat droplets at the same time! And you didn’t miss the interview yet; it should be on in about an hour.
Good Morning All! I see you have all been busy little FOD’ers this morning! The story from KT had me in tears….I sincerely hope that David will receive a copy of this beautiful composition.
Gengen, I know exactly how you are feeling…we all miss David and I think he misses us too!
Looking forward to the radio interview…I’m all set and waiting with anticipation!
Jenny-Well, let me get that picture in my head first! Ok, I’m guessing that the whole class would go into a group swoon!!!
Hi Kristin, Scott, any everyone.
Oh good a replay of the interview. That will be 10 AM here. Good, before I go to work.
I agree, Kalei’s Tulsa photos were over the top!
Jenny, I think you would hear a collective gasp from your class if sweat droplets appeared that large on that face!
#81 Jenny LOL! such is life with ODD!
#84 kimk: no problem.When you need to let it out. That’s what we’re here for!
Hey Russ, Marylee
OH MY GOSH, Jenny…what a way to start our day…another picture of David’s beautiful face and magnified “sweat drops”…you know us so well!…lol..
Good Morning to all of you!!!!
LOL at you Jenny!
I missed all the fun yesterday while I was at work grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr…………
Boy, Jenny, I would love to take your class! What should we call it? David Composition? Theory of David? AP David? Archunomics? The possibilities are endless!
Well, off to school… with no classes or LCD projectors with David on them. dang it. bye!
Haha, Jenny you are so funny! I’m great today! I have the day off, doing my Archuduties, then goin’ to have breakfast with my daughter! (After the interview, lol…)
Hi hollyre, FG and Marylee!
Jenny and KT,
Thanks for sharing the beautiful story this morning on Eva and David. I might not be able to listen in tonight and I’m bummed cause I was looking forward to it. Company tonight.
If you guys want to do some Crush voting while waiting for the radio interview, David could use some help on the popeater poll. He’s doing better than he was earlier, but not good enough for our David.
http://www.popeater.com/music/article/arch…and-cook/205125
Hey there, Kristin….ready to hear David’s soothing, mellow, sultry voice this morning?!
Ask a stupid question…lol..
hi everyone just got home from work here…i’m glad i didnt miss the interview
hugs to everyone…
hi mhel…hahaha…Crush is really doing well..here too, it’s number 1 again on our station!
big big hug to you rika!!! ( i still have to check out your video)
lisa.., i’m in the same boat as you are… i wish i had more time to do archuduties… so when I do have the time, i do my best!!!!
… jenny i envy you…to devote a lot of your time to our David!!!Thank you , thank you , thank you!
I’m sure David will do good in the interview
Sorry, that’s no good apparently. Let me recheck that.
Hi Kristin. Morning all, or good evening our international friends.
Kelsey, great suggestions! How about “Archulingustic Theory and Praxis.”
CRUSH NEEDS US ON YAHOO MUSIC.
I was looking at the yahoo music video charts and crush is not there. I think it’s important to display his video for millions of yahoo viewers and get new people to buy his music so I decided to check how they do to chart the music videos and found this:
How often do you update your Top 100 Video List?
the top 100 list is updated daily. this list reflects the most frequently watched music videos on our site. …
Yahoo! Music
SO, PLEASE VISIT YAHOO MUSIC VIDEO AND PLAY CRUSH AS MUCH AS YOU CAN.
http://new.music.yahoo.com/videos/DavidArchuleta/Crush–201538215
Good Morning, Scott…..and all others who have signed in this morning!
Guys! I just realized that the polls are closed on VH1 tomorrow night! One more day and it seems that we have voted a LOT! Good job folks! Keep it up!
Last night my hub had on the MTV awards and Rihanna was doing Disturbia and Christine Aguilerra was doing her new hit. I think they might have been lip syncing? But boy what a production. Lot’s of dancers and such.
Is this what we can expect from David? I can’t even imagine. Exciting though but I bet he won’t lip sync. I think Kid Rock was on too.
archulinguistic theory and praxis!!!!! lololol
Good One Jenny!! Sign me up for all of them!
112/Kimk: Your post reminded me of something I was thinking while watching DWTS this week. I think they should have David on as a guest performer. They had Jennifer Hudson this week and recently the Jonas Brothers….why not David?! I think I’ll send them an e-mail…
I heard the interview this morning and it was way too short and not very interesting…….David sounded great and awake at least…..

I wonder if Wendy is lurking? The interview is on her local Memphis station and she gave them suggestions for questions to ask.
Sorry about that. Here’s the correct link

#116 FG: Really? Well at least it’s more publicity for David. I guess they did not ask interesting questions?
my older son (I see some similarities to David and many people have commented on it which drives him CRAZY)

FG…your son is so cute!!!!…yup he has some similarities with David…so what does he do when people keep saying he looks like David?…does he cover his ears?!! haha..
FunnyGirl, what an adorable looking son you have! Brings back fond memories of my own son, who used to take TaeKwonDo. He’s 24 now….but still my baby! lol
Loved KT’s story, so inspirational.
Jenny, you have quite a collection of Archudata….
Good morning FOD family… Did I miss the interview???
AWWW thanks – my oldest is 9 and my youngest is 4. My 9 yo just says “No I don’t look like David!”
Hi albino: they are going to play the interview again at 9am central time.It was on already but most of us missed it the first time.
Scott – #130 – Thanks! I’m listening now but all I hear is some crazy converation about physic love
albino: yeah I’m not liking this station , but anything for David!
Scott: I just got here. I have had the radio on here since 8am and have not heard anything. Are you telling me that you guys heard it? They usually do these interviews around 9am central.
..albino.. i’m listening too, really weird conversation!!!… aaaagh… 25 more minutes!!!..its taking forever!!!..i want to hear David now!
OK this is random but – Lines I’d love to hear David sing:
“and he shall be Levon, and he shall be a good man”
“I only wanted to see you, I only wanted to see you…..in the Purple Rain”
“In the arms of an angel, may you find some comfort there”
“Sing us a song you’re the Piano Man”
“they paved paradise and put up a parking lot”
“I keep forgettin, we’re not in love anymore”
awwww….missed the interview?…oh my heck!
…. i’ll just spend the time voting!!!…
Did I miss the interview 2 ??? cause on snarkies it said the radio station is going to interview David on 9AM central and for me 10 AM eastern .
I gotta tell ‘ya….this music sucks!
pooh, I can’t even get it to stream….dumb work computer…they have it blocked. grrrrrr…
Wendy, naree, Scott…omg….how do these songs get on the radio in the first p lace? urgggggggggg
Hi FG – good list!
136/Vicky: No, you didn’t miss it…it’s coming up at 10:00 (was also aired earlier this morning)…
Good morning everyone! KT — your story was beautiful and moving…you are a gifted writer! Thank you for sharing with us!
Good idea Naree.. I think I will go vote for 20 minutes!
Hey Wendy : No Most of us did not hear it, I think FG said she heard it and the DJ’s mentioned
about an hour ago that they had just talked to him and were going to replay it at 9am. The guy DJ made a crack about how David is better at singing than interviewing.
Yea guys, this station is a bit much, but they have already been really nice about David and they play his song all the time. That is why I listen.
Scott: He is the one that is always so complimentary of David. He actually said on air that he would buy David’s CD over Cook and that he thought David would be more successful.
I am going to be so upset if they didn’t do a good interview. They have been so nice and said they loved my questions. I wish they had let me do the darn interview. DANG IT!!!
Wendy Rules!
145/Scott…I’m going to be bummed if they say something negative about David…that kind of comment just “ticks” me off!
Good Morning All-Ahhhh what a glorious day in FODVille…David, Eva & Sweat drops!
more lines I’d love to hear David sing:
“I will be your father figure, put your tiny hand in mine”
“Play that funky music white boy”
OH MY GOSH…The JB….can’t even carry a tune!
while we’re waiting for the interview, can u guys play cursh on yahoo videos, it’s the only way we can put crush on the top 100 videos on yahoo.
Wendy : I’m sure they were nice to him. But the guy did make that comment. The woman stood up for David though. She said he is young and shy.
and if they are playing “crush” a lot that’s great !
Wendy – it was ok but REALLY short, they brought up his Dad but in a nice way kinda like they didn’t believe the rumors, they asked about his album and that’s about it…..
i wonder why crush goes up and down on chat, is it lack of airplay..
153/Marylee-I am so not a fan of the JB! I just don’t get why everyone loves them! Oh well. . .
I guess no one compares to David!
152/FG- “Play that funky music white boy”??? I’d pay to hear David sing that line!!
I still haven’t heard them say anything about the interview.
I didn’t hear the comment by the DJ but maybe I turned it off too soon
Somebody is gonna have to translate for me, cause my stupid work has the stream BLOCKED!!!!!!!!!!
Good Morning Candy! How’s the weather in lovely NJ today?
FG – heehee! “play that funky music white boy?” hahahaha Yes, David, please sing it while wearing this outfit/wig:
http://i327.photobucket.com/albums/k461/danaduck0486/da%20funny%20expressions%20post%20idol/archieguitarhero.jpg
It would be great if we could just listen to the interview without a preview.
FG: Do you live in Memphis? UGH!! I specifically asked them not to ask about his Dad…that it was so old news. What time did you hear it?
soozq – LOL!
Wendy – I am in Michigan and it was on at 8:00am Eastern time
162/Vicky: I think Jenny said that the interview would be posted later for those who didn’t get a chance to hear it.
Leona Lewis…now that’s someone who can sing!!!!
I realize music is a universal language through which all connect, but I have to say that David and Eva’s music have touched by heart, my soul, my very being in a way I didn’t know existed. I can’t get enough of either of them. Two souls whose voices stir emotions that have lied dormant for years and all of a sudden they have sprung back to life! I can not wait for the interview tonight!!
Marylee: I know how you feel, but I agree with what Jenny said #71 above David has a thick skin and wouldn’t let it bother him.
soozq-Absolutely perfect for that song. He really DOES look like Bobby Brady dressed like that, doesn’t he? “Here’s the story. . .
soozq – too funny!!!
well they said “would you like to set the record straight about the rumors about your dad?” so I suppose it could have been worse…..
FG: I had the radio on at 8am and didn’t hear a thing. Weird
candy – And sprung back to life you have! In mighty fine form, I might add!
170/Candy-You can be so absolutely hilarious at times. And then when you write something like what you just wrote, it gives me the chills!♥ So True!!
JENNY, anyway you can also post tonight during Margrets chat, the picture you did of David and Eva on the dock, that too is SO beautiful. I think Margret would enjoy seeing it. Thanks! And yes, I have become an Eva fanatic right along with David!
The records about his dad have been set straight months ago, so I don’t get why everyone keeps asking David that.
OK, this is weird. I am listening to the radio and have the live stream on. The live stream is not what I am hearing live.
viv – #154..I am playing crush on yahoo now!
#172 Kristin: Bobby Brady lol! hmmm David singing “Play that funky music” interesting.
Scott, I understand that he will have to develop a thick skin (a tough industry he’s getting into), but you know, some comments are just so unnecessary in an interview…can’t these DJ’s and interviewers do a good interview without “side” comments?! I guess I’m just not much of a realist when it comes to stuff like this!
another line I’d like to hear David sing: “hold on, hold onto yourself, cuz this is gonna hurt like hell….”
184/FG-well for a man that still says gosh and dang it, not sure that will happen anytime soon
So I heard that google is considering using a new system you can install on your server.
They ask 5 math questions before you are allowed to post the comment you are typing in.
Supposedly for drunk posters.
How about ODD Posters? Especially after Watching certain videos.
#1 Yes he really just did that on video but do you really want that posted where he can see it? Oh Perhaps someone in your real life?
#2 His Dad and Mom are probably lurking as well. Are you sure now?
#3 Delete Breath View Simon on Ellen Count to 100 and then type it over?
#4 Is it pertinent to the subject above? lol
#5 How many times did you just watch that video? If the answer is more than 100 your busted until further notice!
Guys, they still have not even mentioned the interview with David. I don’t know what is going on. Sorry! I just tried calling them…no answer. So, I emailed them
#184 Fg: I doubt we’ll here that one from David! LOL!
#183 Marylee: I’m with you. The DJ actually said that after the interview David was not on the line yet. I did not hear the interview.
185/Candy….DITTO!!
Candy – lol I know but I love Sara M. GUH…..
Wait..Wendy…is the stream different than the live? I’m hearing Dangerous now. How about you?
I hope we hear this interview soon. . . I’ve got things to do!
KT,
Awesome story!!!! I love this statement-I agree 100%
I quote you-
“His music doesn’t originate from him or end with him but flows through him.”
“His humility and shyness on stage boldly states that this is not about me but the music”
“He does not want to compromise his convictions for the sake of a dollar or fame”
“His music is 3 dimensional affecting the body, mind and soul.”
THIS STATEMENT EXPRESSES HIM TO A “T” “-)
I REALLY HOPE HE READS YOUR STORY!!!
“I feel his music. It doesn’t matter the venue, the song or the setting; every time he sings I feel his music. That is a special gift.”
Thanks for the video-warm hugs for everyone, that was great, wonderful expressions on their faces. Everyone needs those warm hugs
HUGS TO ALL ANGELS!!!
Amanda and Pam,
Thanks for those awesome pic’s!!!! “-)
I’m hearing dangerous too
hmm.. 10am and nothing yet.Maybe they will just post it on their site? I have to leave my desk for a little bit. Hope I don’t miss it. It’ll be posted later so I’ll check it then.
“Hold on, hold on to yourself, cause this is gonna hurt like heck.” I’m sure David can work it out! That is a great song by Sarah McLachlan
Albino: Yes, it is what I’m hearing, but the live stream is delayed. Like the song just ended,but it is still playing on the stream
OK,….They just mentioned it. They said he is coming up. They just said “Friends of David” dont’ fret…we’ll have that for you.
191. I hear Dangerous right now too.
I’ll let you guys know when he is coming on.
Said his name – coming up!!!
almost american idol?? yuck!
Ok I’ll stick around for it then
The things I do for David !!!!! I mean I listened to Disney songs for 2 hours for him !!!! My ODD needs to go away now !!!!!
DAVID would also KILL any George Michael song……
Crusher: NNOOOO!!! You love your ODD! Embrace it!
Candy – we know who the REAL American Idol is – don’t stress.
KT…thanks for sharing your amazing story with us.
Scott #5….love the pledge!
WHBQ just mentioned us! They tried to, anyway. They said that they were getting ready to replay the David interview, “So Friends of David, don’t fret.” Ummmm….that’s FANS of David, but thanks for the shout-out!
*putting on my eva headphones while waiting*
How about “If I wrote you a symphony, to let you know how much you mean to me” by Justin T.
OH lala David
#209 Jenny: I know….they did say the correct name earlier in the week and last week.
who is singing this song??
Jenny – you are very pretty – I never told you that, but you are!
Sorry but I need to say it this station sucks !!! almost american don’t tell me they asked david about his problems with his dad during AI and oh I forget they will if he has a crush . can people ask david intelligent questions or is that so hard for people to do ? don’t answer it is a retorical question even if the answer is a big fat yes !!!!!!!!!!!!!
wendy-you will have to let us know if they used any of the questions you submitted
I think it is ne-yo
I wish they would just be quiet and play the interview!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Candy the song just played is Ne-yo closer
KT, thank you for sharing your wonderful experience. Those feelings you describe are more testimony to what I know we all feel but find so indescribable. You put it into words, and I’m so happy that you did share your sentiments.
Jenny – I meant that in the most non-creepy way possible LOL!
#216 Candy: I will. I am really going to be upset if it is a lame interview. I pumped them up, told them I knew they would do a great interview, etc. etc.
FunnyGirl <——- embraced her inner creep a long time ago………
OMG-someone duct tape the DJ’s!
#215 Crusher; They might suck, but they play his song alot.
Wendy – the interview is SOOO short – if I were him I’d wonder why I got up so dang early…..
Boy, are we dedicated fans or what? All sitting here listening to music we don’t particularly like and people who are talking nonsense-all because we get to hear David talk for a few minutes! He is so worth it, isn’t he?
They played the same song on my station here at the same time in Raleigh. Perhaps a must?
I’m hearing a PETA commercial right now….
ok guys..I just got busted here at work trying to listen to the interview and vote..so I may not be back again today…let me know if the interview gets posted later…
David is smart not to read the fanfics LOL! Poor guy. “I’m kinda scared.” I am so sorry David!
FG: I hate that! Well, let’s just listen and see.
eek albino!!
Oh, Funnygirl, that is so nice of you, in a totally non-creepy way.
Doing a quick lurk from work, reading KT story! AWESOME!
“I feel his music. It doesn’t matter the venue, the song or the setting; every time he sings I feel his music. That is a special gift.”
♥This is what I mean how David connects individually then links our hearts and souls. That is really a special gift.
♥AKA #17, Thanks for the hug ((((♥hug♥))))
♥Hi! Naree, blessed day 4u.
♥I can’t listen to the radio interview, will do later.
♥(((hug)))for Jenny, Becky, Gail and the FOD team.
♥((((hug))))) to ya’all!!!
#225 Wendy…playing Crush a lot is the bottom line…we really don’t care about how weird the DJ’s are if they are playing Crush!
kristin-dedication to the enth degree! Anything for David!
… the good thing coming out of this waiting is that I havebeen able to vote on VH1 for almost 500 times now….but i think i need a short break…i hope they play the interview soon !!!!!
#224 candy love ur plan
227/Kristin – Amen. What won’t we do for a little bit of David?
I think they know we are waiting so they keep us hanging.
Kristin: Yes he is worth it. I would do anything just to hear David say Hello! Now how is that for ODD? Just think, I get to listen to this radio station ALL DAY just because I want to hear Crush. Yay Me!
OMG I’m blogging live with THE JENNY of FOD!!!! Can I have your autograph Jenny?
Jenny, while you are on, just wanted to shout out a huge THANKS….I truly appreciate what you do here for us ODDers!
Hot and Cold by Katie Perry is what I hear right now
(((hug))) to Rika.
* looking for mute button* someone pls give us a signal when the interview comes on, thanks
Well, they might be keeping us all “hanging” because I did mention that I was letting the entire Fansite know and we would all be listening.
Jenny I am shocked that you have a full time job – I honestly thought that ODD was your job LOL That is crazy that you can get it all done. Is your house clean too???? ALL HAIL JENNY!
Candy: I will tell you when it is on. You may mute the DJ’s
#208 Glenda : Hi. Thanks but that was a pledge Gail made in yesterday’s post.
this song sucks
#247….Candy, you are so stinkin’ funny…that is exactly my sentiments on this song!!!! I can’t stop chuckling…..
I hope they play it soon though because I have a lab practical today and I have to leave soon
I guess I’ll have to take a chance that the interview will be played back later…my hubby just called with instructions for an emergency trip to the bank (stock market scare)! BBS…
Jenny tell Becky she’s pretty too!!!
HI Scott! Well then, kudos to Gail…it is a great pledge!!
Cougar Club LOL!
LOL Cougar club?
I listen to a station all day waiting for Crush, I sit through entertainment shows waiting to get a glimpse of David and I’m so desperate for any kind of information that I’ll sit on my computer for hours at a time while laundry piles up, errands take a back seat and cleaning waits! Crazy? You betcha. But it’s worth it!!
FG!!!!!!!!! LOL!!!!!!!
kimk – hahahahah
FG Like minds?
kristin – that’s the cha-ruth
Yea, she has a Cougar Club. Older women who like younger men.
#258 FG…just what are you saying honey! Are you insinuating that we are old?
isn’t this the cougar club? I’m davidarchuletacornfield confused………
I just asked my husband to take my son to school b/c I’m too busy…. haha
Well I have gone from crying my eyes out to falling on the floor laughing! Luv you all!
Sorry but I need to say it this station sucks !!! almost american idol don’t tell me they asked david about his problems with his dad during AI and oh I forget they will if he has a crush . can people ask david intelligent questions or is that so hard for people to do ? don’t answer it is a retorical question even if the answer is a big fat yes !!!!!!!!!!!!!
just wanted to post this again cuz honestly this station is worst than radio disney !!! oh my heck can the dj’s just shut up and play David’s interview . sorry my ODD is acting up again !!!
Rest assured – the interview will be played before 10am, because that is when their show ends.
glenda- no the DJ was talking about the cougar club she goes to
Glenda I’m as old as dirt on the outside but young as sunshine on the inside.
Wendy – are those the papers I signed back in February??? I should’ve read the fine print DANG IT
# 271 Wendy, what a relief, LOLOLOL!
I am laughing so much I am crying….soozq…too busy doing whatl…listeing to commercials!
268/soozq-LOL
The DJ just emailed me and said they will play it at 9;30am
KT…..I so wish I had the words to thank you for sharing your Eva and David story…but most of all the story of your beloved uncle.
I have never known anyone who actually heard Eva in person…what a gift…and it is so good of you to share and describe that first time…and how she affected the crowd…it’s like you go through life..same old…same old…the routine duties and then…someone like your uncle…Eva…or David…wakes you up…as in Eva’s favorite song and I believe the last song she ever sang in public…What a Wonderful World…
All the best to you on your Make A Wish Foundation involvement…I would really love to hear more about that and your spirtual journey…wishing you joy and peace….
Just a fellow pilgrim on this long and winding road….
FG: What papers?
Wendy What state is this in? If they don’t play it there will probably be a recording at some time. I’m glad they play it a lot!
They are playing CRUSH here in Raleigh g105 and someone besides me requested it!!
…commericial…it attacks the brain and you might not know what hit you…. Ok, but I almost expected them to say David Archuleta….LOL
soozq – my hubby would not tolerate such a David atrocity – you are one lucky woman – not as lucky as David’s 1st love, but lucky nontheless……..gak he’s gonna look at her with those eyes, and kiss her with that mouth, and sing to her………sweet mercy!!!!!
wendy – the cougar club LOL!!!
277/Wendy-So, I’m assuming that as song as this song is over, we get to hear David?? I’ve gotta get off this chair and out of here! lol
Hey, I’ve just invested 45 minutes – I’m not going to miss it now! My poor husband…. I can’t believe he still loves me.
FG Yes what papers!?
Thanks Wendy ,any minute now!
Kimk: I am in Memphis, TN They did tell me that they will post it on their web site.
#272 FG…thanks for clarifying…I was out of the loop!
#273 kimk…yea me too, but aren’t we fun?
He’s gonna touch her face with those huge hands…and kiss the back of her neck DANG IT….ok I’m done – so sorry!!!!!!
Soozq He loves you because of your zest for life. Guys like that. At least my hub does.
Should be next LET’S HOPE!!!
FG – “gak he’s gonna look at her with those eyes, and kiss her with that mouth, and sing to her………sweet mercy!!!!!”
And I keep telling myself that I am so NOT a cougar! You can’t say these things to me… I cannot take it!
#291 FG: Watch it!!!
FG What are you watching??
“I can’t believe he still loves me” – CLASSIC!!!
FG!!!! “He’s gonna touch her face with those huge hands…and kiss the back of her neck DANG IT” *heart is racing WAYYYY too fast* This is a good start to my morning, but I’m so not admitting it!
judith-very beautifully said! I too am enjoy discovering Eva through David. Thanks for sharing.
Morning everybody. I haven’t heard the interview yet, however, I think David excels at the “in-studio” interview where he can “read” the person he’s talking to (like the z100 or 20 on 20 interviews where he was lively and shear joy). We know how he intently focuses on the person he’s talking to, and that just can’t be done over the phone. It can be difficult to hear and register what is being asked, often with the DJ’s all talking over one another. Not to mention the hour of the day these are often taking place. But it’s the nature of the business and he knows he has to do it. And he’s always a pleasure to hear, he just never makes a misstep in spite of the circumstances.
yaya I know I’M DONE sorry…….
Ok, Guys He’s Up!!!
Saw Christine sing this on MTV and she had like 10 guys dancing with her. Ten girls dancing around with David? lol Can’t seem to imagine that.
KT – thanks for your wonderful story! What a way you have with words. You put into words so beautifully what my own mind and heart were thinking and feeling about David.
Jenny – WOW! Really, how do you find the time? Thank you, thank you, thank you, for all you do for us FODers! I have a hard time keeping up on just reading all the stuff you put together! Thanks for re-posting my Tulsa photos!
“you can’t say these things to me….” CLASSIC!!!!
I can only hear Super B!
#300 JeffR: Good point.
Good morning jeff-feeling any better today?
Yes, How much input? That is one of my questions.
Thanks for the (((hug)))) holly, im loving it….g2g work…
Is he on?
kimk – not watching anything…..I was just having a moment there…..
Hey JeffR! How are you?
WENDY!!!!!
Wendy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wendy, they mentioned you!
Wendy! You’re famous!
Wendy!!!
David is on yay !!!!!
er, is the interview done already? just woke up…
he is on -she doesn’t know the tour ended-she does NOT have ODD – lol
Ha Wendy- they mentioned you!!! YAY! “The most popular American Idol” That’s the Ta-Ruth!!!
Oh no we miss him too!!!!!!!!!!
The Cook comparison. Yuck
hahahha.. i tuned in in time!! woohoot!
GOSH-he’s too adorable!!! *chills*
I told them the dang tour was over
sweetie pie awwwww
OK, are you still listening to it? It’s over for me.
la la la? LOL !
awe, Wendy girl….you are famous…..that was so cool for them to say that…
David, you have that singing with emotion down pat!
let the man talk about music and he can talk forever!! YAY David
must be a time delay
Dad!!!!! No!!!!
I think this was a great interview……way to go David and Wendy……..you both rock!!!!!!!!!!!
OK, I don’t think the interview was too short. Wasn’t fantastic, but they were very positive toward him. I didn’t like the Cook question. I don’t think David even understood what he said.
AWWWWWWWWWWWWW I JUST LOVE HIM!!!!!
What was that DJ talking about when he insinuated he wasn’t a good interview? He was Great! Way to David! Way too short though!
Soooo adorable. I love him. He’s a real trooper getting up so early.
Aw, it’s over already? I’m not done listening to him talk!! At least now I can turn off these dj’s!
so short! Wendy – what do u think?
Well, atleast they mentioned his Dad in a different way! I also told them about his record going Gold and wanted them to ask him about that. But they didn’t. Notice how many times they said “We love you in Memphis”
wha’d he say??? wha’d he say????
What he was just fine? What was bad about that? Miss him and he gets to sing somewhere soon.
I just heard it! Just in time! He did great!
WENDY-((hugs)) FOR THE GREAT QUESTIONS! It was a great interview!
339/scott-I was just thinking the same thing. David was absolutely perfect in that interview. The dj’s interrupted him a few times, which got me mad. Let the guy talk!!!
Thanks for your efforts and for talking to them Wendy!
is that it ??? i knew they were going to ask the question about the dad drama . how are these djs even employed ??? idk i hope this interview is longer cuz I waited this long .
I loved it! Good job Wendy! Now I have to go make it up to my husband….
haha Love you guys – BBL!
they were very nice to him
The interview was great, I thought David answered all the questions with ease except the Cook question which I do not think he understood. Way to go David!!!!!!
Thanks for all your efforts Wendy! I love that they mentioned FOD and You!!! Didn’t think I could love David any more than I already do, but then he does another interview and. . .BAM!!! I end up loving him even more!!!
He was great once again! I waited as long as I could and they played it just in time, but now I have to leave to take my test.
Jenny-Thanks for the direct link, you rock girl. And pls don’t project that on the overhead screen!
I gotta run too – have a great day. I’ll be back later!
Good Morning everyone, just caught the end of the
interview, he must get so sick of the “dad” question!!!
Let him talk about something else
Wendy Thank you!
Hey maybe we can request a vlog concert with all of us online so he can hear us cheering loudly in the background? Is there a two way conference thing that can do that. Kind of like an internet concert?
I’m outta here for a while. Things to do! Archulater all!
Well, for the record they didn’t use any of my questions. Just the one about how much input he had in the album. I don’t think he is ever going to get away from the Dad questions. It was short, but it was better than nothing. I’m grateful that they were very positive with him and about him.
I ripped the MP3 and put it up on the post.
Hey Scott, Candy, Kristin, yea Candy it’s doing better today! No sneezes!
It was a good interview. David did great. Thanks Wendy for talking to them! Your Famous now!
Good interview except for the Dad question again. David keeps getting better and better.
Thanks Wendy, squeeky wheel gets the grease.
363/JeffR-No archuchoos today? lol. . . sorry, I couldn’t resist that one!
Wendy, thanks for working to get the station thinking toward a better interview with David. I think this one went well. You rock!
Wow Jenny , so Quick!
awwww…somebody tell me what he said?? pretty please???? i’m so outta the loop.
I actually think it’s good that they ask about Jeff…to let David set the record straight!!!!!!!! We all know this was so not true and we listen to all these different interviews cause we follow David’s every move, but you have to realize a lot, and I mean alot of people still remember this crap about Jeff…..and they don’t follow David like we do……so for the general public………I think it’s great for David to set the record straight……I can’t tell you how many people bring this very issue up to me when I talk about David……………they still believe it’s true………….so I say if he can get the word out in the different cities across the USA………I think it’s a good thing………
I’m laughing at myself. I’m not sure I should be happy that everyone has heard my name on the radio a gazillion times. Boy, the things I do for David. I will send them a thank you, though.
I’d love to stay here, but I’ve got to accomplish something today! Have a great day everyone!
Vicky: Jenny posted it…hurry…go listen
Good Morning All,
Oh well I missed the interview. How sad and it was even in my time zone ah. Thank you Jenny, KT, and all for the story and pictures. You guys Rock!! Have a blessed day y’all. ∞♥DJA
Guys…I posted the interview at the top of the post.
**runs to check to see if it works!!**
YEA WENDY! Memphis girl FTW!
Ok I only heard one question on my computer and a bunch of commericals that is why I wrote my comment . Anyway , I will listen to the mp3 that jenny burned .
NVM…Jenny overrode me…it’s at the bottom of the post!
Must go, too. Hope to catch up later today. Have a great day all!
Hooray Wendy! Loved hearing “Wendy from FOD”! You deserve to have your name mentioned on a rock station…because YOU ROCK!
BECKY: LOL!!! I wish they would have let me interview him.
OMG-THAT HUG VIDEO!!! The expression on the mans face at 1:12 knocked me back in my chair! That was so touching! The only one home is my cat so I picked her up and hugged her!!
Ha! Becky! I didn’t override you; I just beat you to it!
JeffR: LOL!!! I’m just glad that FOD was mentioned. They mentioned it a few times in the last week, when promoting that he would be on teh show. They mentioned my email and that he had a fan site. So HOORAY FOR FOD!!!!
#362 Jenny thanks you are amazing! i had to miss the interview because i had a meeting.
thank dang work thing againg. you have a full-time job too. did i hear you say you worked
t a university? which one? i work at a community college in pa
KT – wonderful wonderful story. i loved many of the things that you wrote. you have a way with words.
i’m excited that i found out that one of my good friends (well she like a little sister) is also a David Archuleta fan. in an email i was talking about David and FOD and Utah, etc. and gave her the FOD web site. she emailed back and said she loved him too. she is going to check out FOD.
Hi Andrea
Candy: What hug video. I’ve been focusing on the interview, so I missed something.
testing avatar
why my new avatar doesn’t show up?:(
Candy 381 – Thanks for the warning. I haven’t looked at the video yet, but I guess I better go find the barn cat across the street and prepare to give it a hug!
KT KT KT KT KT KT KT KT KT KT
Thanks for your wonderful story on the effect of EVA Cassidy had on you.
No surprise that someone like David Archuleta would be captivated and inspired by her.
Now he is inspiring others — volunteering for the Make a Wish Foundation is a beautiful thing you did.
I love how you included a comment made by David – and I will bring it here “”This is why I do this. This is why I can’t get a big head, because it’s not coming from me. That’s what I like about it, it’s all in the music, you don’t have to say anything.” – In that moment I remembered my uncle and knew that David understood that Christ is counting on him….and I can see, that he is delivering in a big way. KT
Many of us are still trying to figure out what this effect is, why we are here, what is the greater purpose– I am glad that you had your ah hah moment!
wendy -at the top of the home page-Eva’s sister sent it, I cried through the whole thing, I am just not doing good with these videos! its beautiful
I love that David is so sweet in his answers about his dad and Cook. If it were me I think I would have lost my mind by now having to answer the same questions over and over about “stage dad” and competing with Cook. UGH!!!! Can’t DJ’s do a little homework about their guest before they interview them? The AI tour has been over for almost a month now. One thing I can agree with these DJ’s about is that David is “the most popular Idol”.
Anyway, it was a great start to the day just listening to David.
Candy: **RUNNING TO WATCH** Thanks
jeff-that will be one lucky cat
Yes, don’t miss the hug video, everyone! It’s in the original post above: Margret sent it to me. It’s just full of beautiful moments. There are so many people out there hungry for a human touch; you can tell that some of those folks really needed a hug that day.
Jenny if your still here, do you atill need CD bought for someone who can’t get one? I can buy a few if you need me to .
Good morning Russ……Have I mentioned lately what a great friend you are to me!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well, I’m mentioning it again
Good morning everyone…..
Ok I have to leave for awhile BBL. Have fun all. Keep voting! VH1 don’t forget musiqtone too!
boy, I need to take a tuyping class and a English class.
Maureen 392, I’m with you there, I’m always surprised to hear that question “are you still on tour?” Huh? Hello! You would think that they would be a little better informed. They were nice to him though. The girl seemed more on top of things, and certainly agree with “the most popular Idol”.
well, I must tear myself away and get the mundane done, once I get back I’m not leaving this chair, I want to have a front row seat for Margrets interview! BBL
#384 gloria, how cool is that!!!!!! someone to share David stories with…….Tell her we all say “HI”
Candy 394 – awwwwwwwww
Eek! He is just so adorable! I love him! And he’s just getting better and better at these interviews! What a great way to start the morning! Guess I should get some actual work done now…the kind I get paid for I mean.
Great interview w/ Q107.5! Wendy, you go girl!!!!!
At least your state likes David, I’m not a happy camper w/mine
I just talked to WDVD 96.3 FM, they told me they might not even play David’s music. I asked them why? There reply was… I don’t know… maybe they don’t like it.
Well you know how I feel about that…..booo, hisssss
I have to go take my son and his friend to a skate park they have the day off, bye Angels!!!
I’m sorry about my spelling this morning. I need to go pick pumpkins. where going to get snow this weekend. but if you need me to.just leave me a yes and I’ll E-mail you. I think I have your e-mail.
Jenny thank you so much for the mp3 of the interview and yes the radio interview of David was good but it was a little short I wish it was longer like the one he had last week when he spoke for like 12 mins on air . Anyway , the inteview was fine and yes I am so excited for David’s album to come out on Nov 11th . I guess Christmas came a little early this year for me hehe . Ok , back to normal life and lurking . Bye FODers .
Have fun talking today. I’ll be out in the cold working hard to saving pumpkins. I should blow up david face and put them on my pumpkins and sell them.
AWW..I LOVE IT THE INTERVIEW!! AMAZING =D
BRAZIL LOVES ARCHIE
jenny and becky…thanks so much for everything! You both do an amazing job everyday and I appreciate everything you do for us! Thank you!
KT and archiefandoc…I’m so glad you both mentioned my favorite line from David,
“This is why I do this. This is why I can’t get a big head, because it’s not coming from me. That’s what I like about it, it’s all in the music, you don’t have to say anything.”
I think everything we need to know about David and how he feels about what he is doing is in this quote. The fact that he’s writing and there’s a good chance some of it will be on the album makes the waiting even more intense and more worth it.
MARGRET – thanks for that hug video — no feeling better than getting a good ol’ hug.
FunnyGirl – thanks for your photobucket photo’s — now I can show my son that I am not the only one who has about 5 pics of biological child, and 500 of virtual child.
Naree – still lurking???? go to bed!! that’s what the Doc orders.
JENNY – thanks for getting that MP3 up for those of us who were still sleeping when it aired — and I was able to just hear the interview and not the mind numbing non-DA music.
JENNY, BECKY, GAIL, and FOD — YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME. Everyone — big WOOOT WOOOOT time!
these ladies do have “real” jobs ha ha, spouses, children, and all of the challenges that life brings to us — but they are up in the middle of the night, or getting up in the middle of the night to bring us all of these great fan stories, photos, interviews, everything DA news.
DAVID ARCHULETA — “everything happens when it is suppose to happen” indeed.
#402 hi andrea! i was excited that she loved David and said she would check out FOD. her name is mindy and she is the sweetest thing! she worked for me and she was fabulous but had to move to GA because her husband is in management training. hopefully they will be back in April.
i saw at least once the Crush was #1 song of the hour!
Hi Janey!! we were posting at the same time — lol
I thought it was you who posted that comment that David said – but was not certain!
Thanks Janey for sharing that — Thanks KT for reminding us of that.
I just know that David’s album is going to be fantastic – of course he could just sing nursery rhymes and I would think it was fantastic.
off to work – with bed head again!
Hello everyone!!!! The story about Eva Cassidy was touching!! It seems her and David are alot alike! Since he misses touring, maybe he will have a January tour!! That would be really nice! I can’t believe there is over 400 comments already! It’s only 9:30 here!!!!
Kt that was a beautiful story. When I listen to Eva I get the same feeling as I do with David. I make al my friends hear Danny Boy. They are happy because I am not putting another David song to their ear. Ha Ha! I went to request on this station last night but David wasn’t on it. He is now
http://magic107.com/pages/request.html#
They don’t play Crush often so if you could help. You just click crush and submit. Must have been a computer glich on their website last night.
The interview was good. David may have purposely ignored the Cook question. He’s smarter than the average bear.
Oh, I forgot to say, Kathy, if your reading this,those pics from Tulsa were right by us!!!!!
AFD….yes doc, not really feeling that well yet – bad cough… just waited for the interview… i’m off to bed now…good night guys….have a good day all of you!
Good night David…take care
KT – Thanks for your beautiful story. I can see the connection clearly now between Eva Cassidy and David. Also, the hug campaign video is just lovely. Thanks for posting that.
KT: What an incredibly beautiful story. Thought I might get through the day without shedding tears, but no such luck. I think you put into words what so many of us feel. Thank you for sharing that.
***HUGS*** TO ALL OF YOU!!!!
OH, And I finally got to look at the pictures. The Archusweat is back. GAH!!!
AFD… you know me so well!…creepy…. good night…btw i was a good girl today, i did not use iphone between patients (too busy)…so i really missed David…hahaha…..good night (really now!)
Wow what a beautiful story! Thanks for sharing it with us KT.
KT – Thank-you, I loved your story -well written!
Thank-you for all the new posts this morning! Have a beautiful fall day FODers!!
~~WAVES EVERYONE~~
Jenny-Thank you for getting the interview posted so Quick!! Hard to believe that David is only 17 sometimes he is getting so good at talking to people and answering questions. Love that laugh/giggle still.
Wow that hug video made me cry-at work agh. Wish I could experience some of these things in private sometimes. Love FOD. Love David.
Velva- I’ll buy a pumpkin with Davids face carved on it. Go girl you could have lots of sales with that.
You guys & gals have lots of fun in here today. I gotta go, got caught yesterday oops.
God Bless, ∞♥DJA
JENNY!!!! Will the chat be posted after it is over? I am probably going to miss it DANG IT, so wanted to be able to read it later.
Have a great day everyone. Its a beautiful day in Central Florid and I have the day off. I ned to feel the sunshine! I might pop in via cell phone. Please take a minute to request Crush on my last post #415. Thanks BBL
JUST A REMINDER!!! Go to Becky’s Articles page and VOTE! VOTE! VOTE!
Wendy the Great Okdoke
great interview.it’s 1 hour advance here in toronto though so i didn’t hear it live.i need to start working.i just wish the dj’s interviewed him a little longer.
we love david here in toronto and the dj’s here like his song too. I asked the dj if he will have interview w/ david as soon as the album’s release and he said “YES” yeeeeeeeey im excited.
Maybe I’m the only computer challenged person here but I just learned something new. If you right click on Becky’s links you can choose open link in a new tab. You can have all the voting places open and once so they are only a click away. This is fun!!
HI EVERYONE!!!
Will be in and out, just wanted to check in.
Sorry, I couldn’t join you all last nite for VH1 voting. But I just placed 50 votes while reading the posts on this thread.
KT, what a wonderful story. I’ve been a fan of Eva for 6 years now when a friend burnt me a CD of her songs. Your story made me cry and then gave me a smile I will take with me for the rest of the day. THANKS!!!
Will talk to you later! Have a great day and here’s a free hug from me!
On the heyneilson site I went to all the others near David and clicked intensely dislike. Don’t know if it does any good but wanted to keep away the compition.
I think David did another great job on that interview. Wendy, thanks for your efforts, even though you said they didn’t use your questions. Still the same tired old question about Jeff, but David handled it well. Maybe at some point in the future he can be like other big stars and agree to do an interview provided they don’t ask questions about his Dad or things related to his personal life? That might force them to think of something new to ask!! Sheesh!
Hey guys just stopping in for a moment but…
I’ve decided to dedicate what time I have to Voting etc but when I went to Vh1 site his name came up on the front music page as…
******#5 Most Popular in Music (he has NOT been there before!!!!!!)*****
You guys are doing GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good morning or good afternoon everyone! ILOVE FOD!!! I had a very busy morning and couldn’t get to the computer GGAAAHHH!! Then I finally got on but still had that picture of *GAIL COMING AFTER ME DRESSED LIKE “PINK” WITH THE CHAIN SAW IF I DIDN”T VOTE (LOL GAIL) so I spent some time voting before i allowed myself time on the front page. *story from comments last night*
I am still wiping tears from KT’s story…Thank you Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your beautiful words shared with us- I’ll comment more when i have time.
Thanks Jenny and Becky for the interview. David sounds really great. I just think so much of him! He’s really growing while keeping the very best parts of his demeanor and spirit intact!!
JENNY: I loved seeing how you were able to jump into the conversation this morning while teaching. Any fellow FOD sitting in class would have seen that “fan sparkle” in your eyes and would have been up to your desk (totally in viewing area of your computer) with lots of ..ahemm…Questions regarding the writing assignment! hehe
BTW- I could really use you in my home right now. My son who’s a HS junior is taking a college writing lab course. He’s a pretty literal kid…you say “blueberry sky” and his mouth is open hoping to catch the falling berries! Trying to write eloquent essays is tough for him. He could use a “Jenny” in his back pocket to help! LOL
Anyway, just want to say that I enjoy all of you sooo much! LEt’s plan on having a big ol’ FOD hug campaign this spring when (hopefully) a lot of us will get together.
As per Kristin’s suggestion last night, I now just open a second VH1 tab on top and flip back and forth between here and there to vote.
KT – Thanks for your wonderful story and ‘Kudos’ to you for taking the time to share it with us!
Jenny and team – Thanks for giving us the privilege of hearing David’s interview! If not for all your efforts, we fans would be missing out on so much, concerning ‘all-things-David’!
A week from today, my hubby and I will be going through David’s Corn Maze!
KT: I am blown away after reading your poignant story about your encounter with Eva Cassidy. Your words brought me to tears. I wish that I would have known about Eva and her music while she was alive.
I also love music and never before have I come across an artist who has touched me the way David Archuleta has with his music. I remember hearing him sing on AI for the first time and saying to myself what was it that I just felt inside? How can a 17 year old make me feel this way? He is truly in a different realm than other artists. He understands that he was blessed by God with a beautiful vocal instrument and that his gift is being used to touch other people’s lives. His music touches your soul. David knows that there is so much more to music than just selling records. He totally gets it! He wants people to feel his music.
I too wanted to tell David how much his music meant to me so I decided that I would sit down and put my feelings into words not knowing if I would ever be fortunate enough to meet him. Much to my delight I was able to attend one of the AI concerts this summer and meet David, if ever so briefly. I didn’t want to bother him because he had so many fans who wanted to speak to him so I told him that I had written him a letter and handed it to him. I will never know if David read through my letter but I felt it was important to at least make an effort to let him know how much his music means to me and to simply say thank you.
Thanks KT for taking the time to share your wonderful sentiments. I pray that your story will find its way to David.
Hey guys…back from the bank and just listened to the interview which I thought was great! David did a very good job, I thought. He seems very relaxed and happy. Never heard any negative comment from the male DJ which makes me extremely happy! Anything else happen that I need to know about…just fill me in with any news.
P.S. by the way, for those who thought that David didn’t understand the question about his record doing better than Cook’s…IMO, he really DID understand, but I’ve noticed that David will say “What?”, as a way of putting the interviewer off and it usually works every time. I’m pretty sure that’s what he was doing in this instance too…way to go, David!
He is on Yahoo’s front page as a HOT NEW VIDEO!!!
Guys can you do a little Disney.com?? Down a little. Thanks.
#439 marylee/ Hi there- i agree with you re: the DJ question. I think when he hears qustions like that, it’s almost like he couldn’t even believe that guy would say that. It is a good way to kinda buy time and shut up the DJ
BTW, I’m sure I’ve said this before, but I could just listen to David talk all day long….love his soft, mellow tone, so comforting!
I wanted to comment on the HUGS video. I started to watch and all of a sudden I began to cry. How nice it was for this young man to offer hugs ! He got acceptance from people from all ages and both genders. Then, I saw the dog. More tears. OMGOSHASHELY! What a great fun video. Thank you for posting it. A good weepy, cry was so refreshing. LOL
Pam05 – What state do you live in? How can your radio station NOT play David’s music? Are they crazy?
My boss is out this week so I have had a little more time to visit the site! But I still find myself looking over my shoulder! Guilty . . . ?
44/suttygal: I heard him do this in a telephone/radio interview while on tour..(Carly was teasing David in the background) and the DJ had the audacity to ask David if he wished she wasn’t married (or something to that effect) and David said “What”?! like he couldn’t believe his ears, and the stupid DJ repeated himself…and guess what David did….said “What?!” again…I thought it was priceless and the DJ was forced to move on to something else…it worked!
Sutty/Marylee: Just goes to show that David is extremely smart and thinks well on his feet. Immature by butt!
443/abrra: I know exactly what you mean about a weepy cry being refreshing! I find that if I cry at least once a day, I feel “cleansed” of all the negativity or sadness that may be building up inside me. I usually rely on one of the touching tribute videos that are posted to to the trick…the latest being “Lost” with the most beautiful lyrics featuring some of the most gorgeous pictures of David I’ve ever seen…brings me to tears every time. I’ll post it for you in a few minutes.
One of my favorites:

It’s official: David will be on the Today Show on November 11! Check out their site.
Finally got up. Good morning and afternoon everyone (again). David is getting more and more like a pro in these radio interviews. I am very proud of him. Do you think it has something to do with his new management team? I am beginning to think that they might draft a Q&A for him to remember, especially on the stage dad question. But anyway, he is doing good. So happy to hear his voice again. GOSH, I love him so much.
OK, Before I comment on anything else, let me just say, THANK YOU JENNY! Thanks for that beautiful photo of David at the top of the page! You know the one…the huge one with David standing out in the sun, smile on his face, and a little rivulet of sweat flowing down his right cheek between his shell-like ear and his constellation of beauty marks! Ahhhh, yes. Could you pass the smelling salts, please?
Oh, and THANK YOU JENNY for rescheduling the interview with Eva’s sister for tonight. This will be so wonderful. I am really looking forward to it!
449/Freo…GREAT NEWS!!!! I’ll be sure to set my DVR!
450/Gengen: Yes, he is getting to be a pro and, if his management team is coming up with pat answers to the usual questions, they need to work on a perfect response to the “girlfriend” question…this is one that will be a “constant” in his young life, so he needs to be prepared for it. I believe today’s interview was one of the first I’ve heard that didn’t ask him about dating, etc.
446/Wendy…ditto!
trying to multitask, catch up on posts and VOTE!!!!!!
Morning, all! It looks like we have Wendy, and GG and soozq(where you been, girl?) and ML and Candy and the boys, and…who did I miss?
Hey, did you nitice that picture of David? The one where he looks hot…
Bless you Freo for that news And Bless JIVE & AZOFF! What a great way to kick off his album promo!
argggh -I will be in NYC on Nov 13th, will miss him by two days!! WAWAWA
Hey, is JeffR here today? If you are, Jeff…How you feelin today? Better?
joanie-you mean the one with the ever so beautiful glistening droplets of sweat, I must have missed it, better go look again!
#459 Candy: You doing a little somethinsomethin FUN in NY? Or is it work?
The Today Show! Yesssssssssssssssssss!! Ok, since he’ll be in NY already, I’m going to go send Regis and Kelly and email NOW!!!!! A lot of stars do both of those shows on the same day. Everyone go send an email!!
459/Candy-WAAAAHHHHHH is right!
Hi there Joanie! The picture where David looks “hot”, huh? lol
Kristin! How did I miss saying HI to you, dear?
#463, Well, doesn’t he? Did you notice the little rivulet of sweat? That looks like he’s hot, doesn’t it? hehe
joanie-definitely fun in NY- four days of shows, eating, more shows, more eating, SHOPPING, I love the city!
457/Joanie….he looks “hot” in every picture…the one above, no exception…lol..
#461 Candy: Well, are you still conscious? Did you notice the, um, glistening rivulet of sweet sweat? Um, Candy? Candy…why are you drooling on your keyboard?
#465 Candy: And you mean…it’s not even your anniversary or anything? Oh, wait…does your husband know you’re going? lol
hello everyone!
first before everyone panics, I’m from Team archie and I don’t regularly post but is an avid lurked, LOL! I hope you guys know by now that we are running a gifting campaign for David’s album. We did the same with his single and is proud to tell that we have gifted over a thousand to archies across the globe, covering more than 50 countries. I’m here today to ask your help to spread the word to those who need to be gifted either by digital or physical cd. We prefer physical cd because based on research, it will have a heavier impact on his sales. However, since it will require shipment, we would really appreciate it if giftees request it as early as possible so that we can coordinate with our location drop-off people. Please visit http://www.teamArchie.com/promo and just click on the appropriate link. We are also running an auction to benefit this campaign. If you are an international archie, we are organizing flyer distribution for David’s album as well. Please visit www. TeamArchie.com/international or email them at international@teamArchie.com. We are doing this for David and we hope that every Archie will take part in this endeavour. Thank you
Lyn
Joanie-I just signed on again. . . you didn’t miss me!
I just emailed R & K and said that since David is already going to be in NY on 11/11, it would be a great opportunity to have him on their show too!!
Candy-What shows will you be seeing in NY?
Hey Marylee! ’sup, girl? Did you notice how hot David looks in that photo? You know, standin out in all that heat…
#448/ Ok marylee, I finally had all the mascara streaks cleaned off my face from KT’s story and now here we go again! i can’t resist Lettucegirl’s video with “lost”. I can’t believe it says it only has like 45 views! It,s amazing and that song is absolutely hauntingly beautiful!!! my son (17) heard it in the background when I was watching the video and asked what song it was? he loved it and we bought it on iTunes that day!
THANKS AGAIN LETTUCEGIRL and thanks marylee for bringing it over again!
TODAY SHOW-TUESDAY, NOV. 11
7:00 a.m. ET David Archuleta (in studio)
OH MY GOSH…I almost forgot to tell you guys, when I went to the bank awhile ago, I met with one of their financial consultants and when I walked into his office I just about fainted…he looked so much like David will look (at age 25-30)…thick black hair, golden/hazel eyes, full lips and a beautiful smile. In fact, after our business was over, I told him so, and he knew who David is. He seemed pleased that I paid him that compliment. He said he & his wife had watched Idol this season and had pulled for David! He agrees that David will be around for years to come. I think I’m going to be doing lots more business with this bank!…lol..
kristin- Hairspray-Equs-Avenue Q-
Hi All just popped back in ,
#463 Kristin: Is David doing the Today show???
#469 lyn: Thanks for doing this! It sounds great!
472/suttygal: Yes, I forgot to thank lettucegirl for that beautiful video. I did thank her when she first posted it…it is truly one of my favorites. There are so many lyrics that speak of the way David makes me feel and I’m sure many of you too!
scott-thats a yep! Looks like he will be doing an in studio interview, not sure if it will include a performance of Crush
#474Marylee: All I want to know is…were you there to make a deposit or a withdrawal….
Maybe he would have been ok if you told him you were there to take HIM out of the bank. lol
Just saw Candy’s post He’s doing the Today show on 11/11? Is that confirmed? I’m glad I took the day off.
Hey, suttygal! hey, Scott!
475/Candy-Sounds like you’re in for some fun times!!
476/scott-that’s what the Today Show web site is telling me! They said that he will do an “in studio” performance. Maybe a new song. . . hmmmmmmmmmm. . . what a treat that would be!!!
471/Joanie….can we really afford to have another “thread” dedicated to the beads of sweat on this gorgeous face?…..yes, I suppose we can!…lol..
Candy: did you read my post at #468 or are my posts invisible to you?
Thanks Candy, I’m thinking he will perform. at least lets hope so!
The TODAY SHOW info was listed under :Upcoming Stars performing on the show!!!! Others listed for a future date are :Tony Bennett-Beyonce-Faith Hill. No Doubt David has arrived!
#484 ML: Hey, girl! I can’t think of many things BETTER…well, maybe…the gaze…or, the eyelashes, or, the VEST, or or or oh I’m gettin dizzzzzzeeeeee
480/Joanie: LOL….leave it to you to think of the “deposit or withdrawal” reference!!!
Your mind is so “creative” and quick, it’s just amazing to me!
468/joanie-my husband knows I’m going, but is he going along, someone has to stay home and feed kitty…right? *evil grin*
#489 ML: Hehe ♥♥♥
465/Candy….what a FUN trip that sounds to be…you should plan it a couple of days in advance & go see David!
#490 Candy, If your husband IS going with you, who’s going to feed that big fat cat of yours?
486/scott-they have him listed as performing
Actually Im going to the city with a group of friends, look for me Friday Morning on the Today Show, I’ll be there
I’ll make a sign that says “Good Morning FOD”
Hi Joanie ! Hi Marylee
Kristin: wouldn’t that be cool if he sang a new song? Although he’s only performed “crush” live one time! It’s funny how well it’s done and the only time he sang it live was at ford day. I guess maybe he doesn’t need to do it live because of how well it’s sold?
Hi joanie, hi Kristin(thanks for e-mailing R&K great idea), Hi Scott!
joanie- willyou please save me a place in line behind you when we get to marylee’s bank? I just had this sudden desire to update our financial planning stuff LOL
Hey there, Scott…just noticed your post…hope all is well with you today!
NYC is a CRA-ZAH place!!! If you have ever been shopping on Canal Street you will know what I mean!
#495 Candy: You so need to do that!
ok, I’m gonna test my multitasking skills here- I’m gonna start making homemade meatballs and sugo (spaghetti sauce) while taking voting and commenting breaks! wish me luck!
497/suttygal: Yea, wouldn’t it be funny if he opened his office one day and there was a bunch of ladies all lined up to talk to him about “making an investment”…lol..
Canal Street was my first experience with an illegal sweat shop! And yes they still have them, they are behind loft trap doors if you are brave enough to venture there. Needless to say, I have been to many LOL
Candy! that’s so cool! Scream like a little girl and hold up your sign real high!
