Archie! We love you and your inborn talent. Hope you can enjoy the show for yourself in Utah. You don't have to try too hard to please crowd. Just being yourself makes people love you more. BTW, we have watched each of your show, and your vocal is stunning!! We also loved your versions of CRAZY & WOTWTC. Now, they are my favorites. Thank you for singing those songs for your fans who have been dying to hear them.

I have been waiting for tomorrow night as that is the night of my ticket to the Idol Concert. You have already made Utah proud and I am very excited to hear your beautiful voice once again and to think it will be live this time. I wish you well in all your endeavors. Keep smiling and living what you know to be true. God will continue to bless you and in turn, you will continue to bless all of your fans with that marvelous singing voice. Thank you for sharing your talent with all of us both young and old. We love you and admire all that you have accomplished in your short 17 years. You are awesome! Can't wait for your new CD. Embrace this wonderful experience you are having. Just stay true to yourself amid all the fame and glory. I know that you will.

"Archuleta wants to make Utah proud"

Why?

How?

I like David, but he's a third rate singer from a two bit Telivision Show.

If you want to make me proud, go save a cat, or read to a child.

Sing a song and make a Whole State Proud? Tell me there is more to this life than American Idol.

Do your show, get on the bus, then get a life.

I've been looking for his CD's. Where are they? I watch D.A. at Arco and he sounded better in person!!
I think he should sing behind the piano like Elton John. My ears are still hurting from the noise David Cook sang. D.A. should have won the show. Can't do anything about that most of his fans are already asleep and D.C. fans are still voting. Just show it on the billboard who is the best!!!!
