oh grow up

Ridiculous to say the least.

I was there. The knitting factory concerts was as good as any concert I have ever seen. It ROCKED the house. He blew me away and I wasn't a huge fan before.

what a wonderful world it can be with David Archuleta in your life

Lighten up

David makes people people of all ages feel young and happy again with his soaring voice. It is a nice respite from a troubled world.

Yes, David does appeal to all ages and we love him dearly for the incredible artist and person that he is.

To: oh grow up

Oh lighten up! What are you, a fun hater? Sheesh!

I went to the Archuleta concert in Reno (from FL) and was fully rewarded with an amazing concert experience. His voice is so pure and rich, hard to believe he ever suffered any setbacks with his vocal chords. I can also say I will travel again to see another show, and to see how he grows and develops as an artist.

David Archuleta's incredibly amazing talent and admirable/beautiful personality appeals to people of all ages and backgrounds. He is a wonderful role model. The world needs more people like him. David is a musical prodigy; he has a very successful and long music career ahead of him. I am 42 years old and I love David Archuleta!

I went to the Pomona concert my first time, with my daughter and grand-daughter (I'm the big fan) who came with me just to watch me for my first concert. They both came out the a concert a big fan now. David Archuleta is amazing artist. The concert rocked.

I went with my sister and her boyfriend to the reno show and she wasnt a fan of David at all. She only went with me to do a favor and her boyfriend just tagged along. She ended up enjoying the show, thought he was cute and even asked to listen to my ipod after the concert. She liked a lot of his songs and even said he sounded a lot better live. Her boyfriend who likes rock music said he has a good voice and not a lot of singers can sing that good live. David is just incredible live. If you havent seen him live you should!!! Hes improved so much since idol! Its crazy how fast hes moving!!

I have never deeply admired a celebrity -- until David Archuleta came. He is truly a beautiful person and a brilliant artist. I hope I could meet him someday.

I went to the Tempe concert and was blown away by his talent and very presence. My married daughter, a fan also, said after the concert with tears in her eyes, "I was not prepared for the experience I just had!!"
I am anxiously awaiting the SLC concert in two days. I can hardly sleep knowing what I get to see, hear, feel and experience once again. David is pure LOVE.

I commend you on a terrific article that hit the nail right on the head. David Archuleta is an artist that is beyond compare. In this day and age, there are few, if any, artists that exist in pop music that have the talent, decency, and artistry capable of spanning and appealing to many generations. He is, as Paula Abdul so aptly stated last season on American Idol, "a gem for the whole world to see."

Yeah, never in the history of music that we have an artist who has fans from all walks of life, poor, rich, vocations, from all nations, from all races and colours, from all faiths and religions, from all ages, genders,name it, David has it. Never. David caters to all of these and more. I am a male, father in my golden years and I had to treak from Toronto to Williamsville just to witness a STAR, a SUPERSTAR in the name of David Archuleta in his solo concert.

David is the most refreshing young artist to ever come along. His incredible talent, his character, his role model status (for young and old alike, and he's not even trying), he truly does have an aura about him. This is why you find his audience is female, male, young, old, he connects with people like no one can. He reaches everyones emotions in a way that is never seen today. A natural.

I am so excited for David's concert here Friday night! I'm way older than dirt and this is the first time I have ever felt like this about a singer. I'm also looking forward to meeting fans who are flying in from all over the country and out of the country just to see our boy. Mega talent personified!

What about the two different groups of fans who came from Japan to see him? They were attending their third concert and were flying back to Japan the next day. Then there were the fans who came from Toronto and Vancouver, Canada. We also met up with four David friends from California who flew in and drove with us from IF to Boise before flying back home. Two of them are flying back again for his SLC concert this weekend, as well.

My friend drove from Seattle, I came from Spokane. None of us are teens, but we love David and his soaring, beautiful voice and matching soul. The fact that his appeal is sooo widespread is what will turn him from a great singer into an icon in the industry. Watch for it. Bet the farm, folks.

I failed to mention that I've got to run coz the car is loaded and I'm off for Salt Lake. I've never been a fan of anyone before, but I guess I'm making up for lost time with my David mania. He's amazing in many ways.
