I was in the Voice Unplugged a few nights ago, watching old videos of David’s first tour, when it dawned on me that with the release of “The Other Side of Down” on October 5, there will be a whole new set of songs. I am more than ready for new music and I wish David the best of luck with the release of his new CD, especially since he had a hand in writing most, if not all the songs.
Yet, as a hardcore fan of The Voice, who attends multiple concerts, I will always yearn for David to sing the songs from his first, self-titled CD, the songs which will one day be referred to as ‘The Early Collection.” These songs are dear to my heart because I have come to love them not only for their merit but because they are the original songs David sang on his first tour.

I realize that the new setlist will be a combination of old and new songs but I can’t help but feel nostalgic because I won’t hear my personal favorites, “Barriers”, “My Hands” and “Waiting For Yesterday” like I did before.
Do you feel like I do? Are there any “must-have” songs from David’s “early collection” that you hope he includes in the setlist for his next tour? Now is your chance to voice your opinion. Please choose three ‘must-have’ songs from David’s early collection.
We will tally up the votes and present them to David at an upcoming M&G, the top three songs that we can’t live without.
(Crush is not listed because it’s a given that David will sing it since it was his first hit.)
