so maybe that’s it — that Idol is supposed to celebrate the amateur rather than the professional? kinda like the olympics and such, but even there we have the ‘dream team’ for basketball and stuff. good thing there’s no steroids (that i know of) for the voice!

i feel like, even if D. A. doesn’t win, he’s only 17 and obviously talented, it won’t be the end of his world.

i am pretty sure he is LDS. whatever. to me, he glows. maybe that’s charisma, maybe talent, maybe just plain innocence, maybe faith and devotion. who knows? it works for me.

skipping the first verse threw me too, but i liked that he had a good reason.

We love David Archuleta, too. He’s such a cute, humble kid … and what a voice. Wow. I loved “Imagine,” but it really threw me when he started on a different verse than the first – I thought I had somehow fast forwarded the performance. I hope he does well. The only other guy I really like is Michael Johns – we’ll see how hangs on the longest!

BTW: Is David LDS? If he is, that’s weird that there are 2 LDS contestants this season.

lol – i also loved him tonight. we were just talking about all the voice coaches, semi-professionals, and, ahem, professionals who are taking over the idol business…

i hope he sticks around because i don’t usually form ~~attachments~~ opinions about them until we get down to the final 10 or so…

I have never understood this Idol mania and I don’t watch the show but my husband does… I’ll instruct him to root for your guy.
