Happy Valentine’s Day to all of you this lovely day of love! If you don’t see your name in the Wordle or the Slide Show that’s because…we don’t know it! Baahaaaa!!! Love to all you lurkers too.
Oh what a fabulous way to start Valentine’s day. Perfect music that expresses our sentiments exactly with beautiful pictures— like a huge box of exquisite candies! Love, love, love, love!
“Happy Valentine’s Day” Angelica, Bebe, Abrra, Djafan and everyone on The Voice…
The lovely valentines, how could they be any more fitting?
I first smiled when I saw Abrra’s name and the red pants on David. Leaping in the sky for Skydancer, blue picture for Blueberry Ice and so on. Thank you for the time spent in creating something so special for David and for us. Ah yes, a picture from Nashville, a fond memory for me.
The roses in the video! Thank you Abrra for the Valentine video and Bebe for the Wordie as well.
Happy Valentine’s Day to everyone especially our good friend ‘Pattirae’ who can not directly be with us.
HI! What an awesome fun post! Those pics and videos are like stuffing my face with chocolate! LOL! You guys do such a wonderful job! Happy Valentines Day today! ❤
Lovely Valentine! What more can I say? Admins, you do such a fantastic job every day but this is really special. Today, my husband and I celebrate 47 years of marriage.
Awww, thanks for the lovely Valentine treats :)! The Smilebox sure worked cause I smiled a lot :))) and the video, well just go on and arrest me if it’s illegal! Thanks so much for the Valentines and HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY to you all!
Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! Love the slide show and video, but my brain is mush after that slow-mo gorgeousness. I watched the slide show three times before I realized that the names of commenters were on there. Dunno…I must have been focused on the pictures or something. Such good news about Pattirae!
Pam05, more than likely your brain got lost after viewing that beautiful Valentine’s Day card/video montage of the gorgeous, beautiful, handsome, amazingly talented man with the name of David James Archuleta!♥♥♥
(Thank-you admins.very nicely done!)
Congratulations on your 47 years of marriage Renaid!!!
Off to work! 10 hours of Valentine’s guests tearing up the Salad Bar at Ruby’s. On the positive side of that, I will more than likely hear David’s lovely VOICE singing The Other Side of Down, Elevator, and Falling Stars at least twice in that 10 hours! WOOT!
I hope everyone at the VOICE has a fantastic Valentine’s Day!
What a beautiful surprise. ♥
What a lot of work that took. Thanks.
The pictures really are the cream of the crop in that slideshow. 🙂
Happy Valentines Day ♥
WOW! My senses are on overload here!!!! Thank you for the BEAUTIFUL card and video, they are stunning. I love this site, everyone here is so nice. Thank you for all you do and oh yes, HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!

Happy Valentines day to all at The Voice and thanks to you all for making this a “Good Place!”
By the way, this article has been tweeted to our sweetest Valentine, David! We’ll never know if he saw it but it brings a huge smile to my face to imagine the huge smile on his face if and when he does! 😀
This entire post was such a labor of love, from start to finish. Djafan and her wonderful screencaps contributed greatly to Angelica’s awesome slideshow. Abrra and I had a hoot gathering all your names for the slideshow and wordle. You, dear commenters are such a joy to hang out with each and every day to discuss our favorite subject. 😉
Thank you for the links with the good news on Pattirae! Patti, if you’re able to read this site today, we love you and miss you!!!
We have two Valentine’s anniversaries today!
Happy Anniversary to Betsy!
Happy Anniversary to Renaid!
Happy Valentine’s Day Angelica,Abrra,Bebe,Djfan,SB,FG,Betsy, Paula and all the gals and guys @ the Voice. Love the Smilebox slide show and video!!! ..and of course Happy Valentine’s Day to David who brought us together!! Love Melinda’s Funny Valentine. Blessings to all.
OOOHHH, now this is a great way to greet the day!
Thank you Abrra for deliciously sweet eye treat Smilebox Valentine! I feel like I just ate a big box of chocolates:)))and Bebe, all our names and everything.:))
You guys are all so special here, and so talented. Just want to squish you, squeeze you, and dangle you from my rear view mirror!
Happy Valentines Day to each and every one of you.I love you.
And to David, Happy Valentines Day “Crusher”!
Wowser! Fun stuff to find on my regular morning tour of The Voice. Man, I miss seeing that kid in concert. The slo-mo vid is downright therapeutic. It does a heart good and I’m signing up for a few more treatments.
Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone! And a big THANK YOU for The Voice and all you do here!

Angelica assembled the smilebox, not I. Lol She has way more patience than me. Djafan dug deep into her picture file and sent some in for the project.
Searching out names for the wordel was like taking a walk to visit old friends. Many pages of posts , finding all your names. Bebe and I had a blast!
If you look close you might even see the name Lurker. Someone actually posted with that name. Had they not, I was going to add it to represent all the wonderful , bashful lurkers we have here.
You’re the second person (Betsy was the first) who mentioned hearing David’s songs from TOSOD at Ruby Tuesday’s. I know where I want to go for dinner today! 😉
Happy Valentine’s Day love and {{hugs}}to each and every one of you, and also to my laptop for letting me in this fine full of hearts day… I better type quick before I crash…
This site is so full of good vibes it makes my heart swell. It’s a Good Place for sure. An extra burst of love and prayers going out to all in need.
I was able to catch the “trance” posts,loved it…and my,oh my…Sayreville revisited!! I was so lucky to be so close and capture the magic of that night.
Abrra~ was that really “slo-mo” in that vid??? LOL Cuz that’s the way I see it everytime I see him live. Was I in a trance?? It’s why I film him… It’s always a “What just happened?” moment after each show.. 🙂
I was able to catch the slide show…Beautifully done! What a sweetheart~
OK…laptop is starting to make noises so I better go before it explodes!
Best Valentine I have ever received!! And the one with my name on it contained a kiss. There was a dolphin involved, but still a kiss. You all are so clever, patient, thoughtful, sweet, crafty etc. Thank you for all you do for us and for David.
Happy Valentines Day to all of my David family. If ever there was an ambassador of love, it is David Archuleta.
oops, got too excited Abrra, after watching that slo-mo of yours.Gahh.
Angelica, you know:)) btw, you picked the perfect song to go with the smilebox, seester!
” Djafan dug deep into her picture file and sent some in for the project.”
Dja,that must be some picture file you got there.were these under K,for killer?
Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! Beautiful job on the post today – thanks to all of you who put it together! My wish for all of you today is to have a heart overflowing!
“The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched – they must be felt with the heart. – Helen Keller
David and all of the Archies have been a blessing to me! Hope you all have a wonderful day!
On the way out the door to my doctor for my annual checkup I stopped by my favorite David fansite to see what was going on for Valentine. Big mistake! They may try to put me in the hospital when they check my pulse and blood pressure. And Mr. DaffyforDavid is going to think it mighty strange tonight after our Valentine dinner out when I tell him I don’t want any dessert, cause I’ve had enough sweet stuff for the day. Wow, what a fun and wonderful post you all created. Thanks and Happy Valentine’s Day to all!
What a wonderful surprise to wake up to. Such a beautiful article. I so love all of you here at the Voice. Thank you so much for all you do for us here.
So excited that Pattirae is on the mend!!!:)))))))
New interview with David from Reader’s Digest Philippines. Seems pretty recent, perhaps it’s in their February issue.
“No more “David Who?”
Even with three albums and a book under his belt, American Idol alum David Archuleta remains grounded and clear of where his career – and his life – are heading
By Ng Enna
Before his stint on American Idol, David Archuleta thought that he was never going to make it in show business. Things have certainly picked up since then. The 20-year-old American pop singer-songwriter was propelled into the limelight during the seventh season of the popular TV talent show in 2008, where he emerged runner-up.
In the same year, Archuleta released his self-titled debut. The first single “Crush” was so well received that it hit No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 the week it was released and has since sold more than two million downloads. Archuleta’s sophomore record The Other Side of Down was released last October, showcasing a variety of tracks from upbeat tunes like “Elevator” to slow-tempo melodies like “My Kind of Perfect”.
Archuleta was in Singapore for a promotional visit last November where he spoke to the media at The Ritz Carlton, Millenia hotel. Clad in a grey tee, black jeans and striped cardigan, the baby-faced crooner flashed his mega-watt smile at a roomful of journalists. Archuleta abandoned his usual shy and soft-spoken demeanour and amidst lots of laughter and even some good-natured tickling, opened up about his music, his family and his future plans.
Reader’s Digest: It’s your second visit to Singapore. Did you get a chance to sample more local food this time around?
Archuleta: It’s interesting because it’s hard for me to have seafood. Last year I wasn’t able to do any seafood, this time I’ve been more open to prawns so it’s, like, slowly but surely. I had some [seafood] when we were at Longbeach [seafood restaurant] and [in a sing song voice] I had chicken rice yesterday. That was good.
Your mum used to be a Latin dancer. Have you ever tried Latin dancing?
Yeah, I have actually. I love Bachata. I like to try Salsa. I just love that music. It makes me move.
Is that why you’re planning to do a Spanish language album?
That is something that I’m really hoping to get to do in the future – a Spanish album. Half of my family is Hispanic, so it’d be really great to be able to get back to those people and connect with them.
How would you describe your relationship with your family?
My relationship has actually gotten stronger the more I’ve been away from them. I appreciate them more. It’s like I had to have them not there to realise how important they are to me ’cos before, it was so easy, they were always there. And now, it’s like “Man! I really miss my family.” I realise how big a part of my life they are.
Do you feel like you are missing out on quality time with them because of your career?
Nope, because I really make an effort to go home as much as I can even if it’s just for a day or two sometimes. There was a day when I just flew in that morning and I had to leave that night. But it’s worth it. If you’re gonna spend money, that’s a good thing to spend it on.
Have you written any songs for your family?
I’ve written some songs about my family. A lot of them didn’t make it on the album though [laughs].
If you do have a relationship with someone, would you write about it in your songs?
Probably. There are so many love songs [out there] because that’s what really motivates people. That’s kind of why I decided to stay away from love songs this time. I don’t know how long I’m not gonna have those experiences for so I want to talk about other things. I’m sure I’m not the only person out there who hasn’t been in a relationship. So I would want to be able to relate to that audience too.
So do you have a time frame for when you want to settle down eventually?
Right now, family is the most important thing to me. Whatever future family I’m gonna have, it’ll be very important too. It’s a matter of making sure that I prepare myself for whomever that person is. I want to be ready so that I am good enough for whoever it is.
Any plans for the future?
The future’s wild, that’s for sure. [This year] I’m hoping to focus on touring. I like to go do shows live; it’s just a very different connection with the audience. It’s been fun doing a bunch of appearances like radio shows back in the States. I’ve gone to do a couple of [radio shows] with artistes like Natasha Bedingfield, Bruno Mars and even The Gin Blossoms.
How long do you think you will last in this industry?
A few years ago, I just kind of felt like, “Well, maybe it won’t happen to me.” But life had different plans. You never know how long something can last. It can all end in six months, who knows? Whether the success or that kind of notoriety still lasts, I’d still always do music because that’s what I love.”
Thank you all who put together this amazing valentine’s treat!! I can’t stop smiling! Seeing my name in the smilebox card, well I”m pretty puffed up about that and wait til I show Maddy!!!
In this difficult time of waiting until we get concerts, performances, etc., posts like this are manna.
Be sure to wait til the end of the slide show for ODD Maddy!She is there, too.
Bebe
Thanks for bringing that article over.A few statements David made were so honest.
“It’s a matter of making sure that I prepare myself for whomever that person is. I want to be ready so that I am good enough for whoever it is.”
Please, there are hundreds of thousands of people who want her to be good enough for you too! The biggest decision in life, and look how he thinks he needs to measure up. He really has his head on straight.
“It can all end in six months, who knows? Whether the success or that kind of notoriety still lasts, I’d still always do music because that’s what I love.”
Can’t say this enough. Trust The Archuleta! He has so much talent in him. He has a long singing career ahead. Management and labels can be changed, the one constant is that he is the best singer out there. Concerts are his best performances. Motab and the last 2 shows in Texas and California showed a more versatile and confident David. He will make his own way, no matter what.Right from the man himself.
“I’d still always do music because that’s what I love.”
Thank you David! We will be right there with you. Every step of the journey.
Thank you for the wonderful greeting!
Seems like it’s Valentine’s Day every time we come here – with all the love expressed in the beautifully written posts and comments…and most of all for the opportunity to share in the non-stop, heart-stopping, (with no rose-stomping today) adventures of David Archuleta!
I was waiting to see who would comment first on the Singapore interview. I agree with Abrra; trust the Archuleta. He tells us how it is and reassures us that he always wants to do music. That’s enough for me.
How did you like this question/answer?
“Your mum used to be a Latin dancer. Have you ever tried Latin dancing?
Yeah, I have actually. I love Bachata. I like to try Salsa. I just love that music. It makes me move.”
Whoa baby! David, do you know that we’re waiting for a sample of those moves you referred to? So you will probably incorporate those salsa/bachata moves into your next performance, yes? Of course you’re reading this David. LOL
One can dream…
and this…
“It’s a matter of making sure that I prepare myself for whomever that person is. I want to be ready so that I am good enough for whoever it is.”
You don’t hear young people talk that way; you just don’t. He will tell you he’s immature but the reality is that he is more mature than most men three times his age.
I love reading here–I even read the comments here, something I don’t do at every site. But I’m soooooo over-stretched with my own blog and DavidBeyondBorders and making goodies and tweeting (especially tweeting as MissBianca). LOL.
Happy Valentines Day everyone! ♥ Angelica..I love the slide show & thanks for “remembering” me..lol Abrra..I told you earlier how much I love your Funny Valentine video & agree with those who have commented on the “slow-mo”!!! David ~ our Funny Valentine..makes me smile with my heart!♥
The smilebox you created…OH MY!! What can I say? It’s a piece of art with an Adonis as your subject. It almost hurts to look at the photos & screen caps you used. David’s beauty is completely spellbinding, mesmerizing & hypnotizing.
The collage, the video, the wordle, the smilebox…all are so obviously a labor of love for David. The collaboration between the four of you created a truly beautiful Valentine for David. Thank you for including all The Voice family.
I hope he felt all the love and admiration his fans feel for him, not just today, but every moment of every day. I hope he knows we are here for the long haul..forever. I hope he knows how much we miss him. I hope he never forgets how much he is truly loved.
******************************************
BTW..looks like Melinda & Kari are both flying to LA?? Wonder if David will be joining them there?
OHHHH! The Famous Miss Bianca? I didn’t notice your AVI, silly me! I am always posting links to your goodies here. I comment on your site when I can. I think you are much-o talented. The Cd lyric pages were better than any I have ever seen on any CD. http://www.bearsafloat.net/smileblog/?s=lyrics&submit.x=0&submit.y=0&submit=Search
I wish Jive had hired you for that task. You did it for LOVE and we appreciate that.
Please everyone stop by Miss Bianca’s site often! “She has David Archuleta Valentine’s Day Goodie! Cupcake Toppers!” today! http://www.bearsafloat.net/smileblog/
Oh..and may I say Happy Valentine’s Day to ALL involved with THE VOICE..it’s a great place to come to & always makes me smile or cry depending on what the writers have to share that day! 🙂
Happy Valentine’s Day to David and everyone at The Voice. Just loved seeing my name in the slide show and under such a very, very special picture of David. What an awesome interview — he is so wise and caring. Came across this quote when I was away:
“At the touch of love, everyone becomes a poet.” – Plato.
Can’t imagine what lies ahead with David’s music when it happens to him. Are we ready for that? Can’t wait!
#46 BeBe: I agree. He’s so mature in the way he looks at life. Some one is going to be very fortunate to have David’s love.
Dancing David? Hmmm… We might have to wait for that spanish album to see those bachata moves. Can you even imagine him with back-up dancers, and him doing the bachata on stage during tour?!?!! He’s gonna need more security. lol
Oops, I neglected to thank you wonderful admins for the slide show — great stuff!
My best wishes, thoughts and prayers are with Pattirae, Emi and Kaycee’s daughter — God bless them.
Sure you can get flowers or a box of chocolates today—but the eye candy you have given us today– is–well– I’m speechless. Thanks for doing this.
While watching the slide show on Smilebox ( which must be a very busy place, took me a while to be able to get it) I had a spine chilling thought. What if you were only allowed to have one picture of David—what ONE would you pick?
David hasn’t tweeted in hours. Perhaps you’re right. He may be going back to L.A. He said he was only going to be home for a bit.
Steno,
Welcome Back!
““At the touch of love, everyone becomes a poet.” – Plato.
Can’t imagine what lies ahead with David’s music when it happens to him. Are we ready for that? Can’t wait!”
Smart words!
MT,
“Can you even imagine him with back-up dancers, and him doing the bachata on stage during tour?!?!! He’s gonna need more security. lol”
It will be worth it!
Dak,
Impossible to pick one favorite pic but Angelica came awfully close on choosing mine!
whew!! I finally made it to my computer today, and look what was in the envelope–an amazing and perfectly, perfect Valentine! Love you admins for what you’ve done—you sweet ladies are the bestest of the best for sure.;)
I’m still ‘Waiting on the World to Change’ with some tour news. The days are getting longer and longer, and it’s not because Spring is coming and the planets are alinging with the sun and the stars and the moon…it’s because our ‘sunshine’ isn’t on stage somewhere brightening up our galaxy!!:( **sigh**
This has been a fun Valentins’s Day here despite what goes on in our worlds. It reminds me of the gatherings of friends when we were little and exchanged valentines with each other….we do have our fun times.
Found these tweets tonight on Twitter, from and to MelindaWEG. Looks hopeful. She’s in NYC now.
WidaArchie@MelindaWEG Thanks for reply me..Any news ’bout David? about 2 hours ago
@WidaArchie nothing I can share about 2 hours ago
jenleighbarry@MelindaWEG i bet it is very hard and our lack of knowledge about business side of music doesnt help your situation much about 2 hours ago
MelindaWEG@jenleighbarry it is totally ok. I can not wait to engage all you guys when the time is right. Until then I have to keep quiet as I get screamed at like it is my fault, but feel free to ask me industry (questions)? I will always try to explain when I can.
Nellie1983@MelindaWEG So, with tours and appearances, this is a collaborative effort with Jive? Or is this just decided between you and David? about 2 hours ago
MelindaWEG@Nellie1983 tours between the artist, and mgmt after seeing what offers come in from promoters and booking agent about 2 hours ago
SaleishaArchie@MelindaWEG Is It True That David Is Going to Be In Jakarta On June? about 1 hour ago
MelindaWEG@SaleishaArchie no that is not true 30 minutes ago
3 years ago sent me a beautiful box of chocolates, and I’m still the tasting.
The taste is exquisite, and can not be described and the presentation of this gift is ……….. without words.
AHH if I get to see david bachata dancing on stage, I think I would drown so much chocolate.
It would be inhuman, illegal.
To all the girls in the voice, we share one love, happy valentines day.
I’m so late to the Valentine party! What a great post today–standing ovation for all the admins! Hope everyone had a great day…hopefully with some chocolate involved!
Silverfox #50 “The collage, the video, the wordle, the smilebox…all are so obviously a labor of love for David. The collaboration between the four of you created a truly beautiful Valentine for David. Thank you for including all The Voice family.” I couldn’t have expressed myself any better than this.
What a nice surprise today. I came here, like usual, and there was the most wonderful and sincere Valentine waiting for me. The Voice is love. David is love.
So happy to hear about Pattirae. What a fighter she is!
Thanks you guys for the Valentine sweets, you are awesome…and the Smilebox, it works!
I totally missed the names on the first two screenings (would have never noticed had I not read about them in the comments)… so much fun when you saw the pic and the name and actually understood the association… and I got the pic of him reaching for the baby,{{you guys are too much!}} Can’t wait until she is old enough for her first concert!
Pattirae IS HOME!!!!!! I am so happy for her and her family right now:) I think I checked her blog like every ten minutes the last two hours and on and off all day long to see if she passed her chest X-ray test so she could go home and she did!!! HIP HIP HOORAY:-)))
Angelica, Abrra, Bebereader, Djafan; what a wonderful valentine celebration to come home to, with so many beautiful, mesmerizing photos and to even personalize it with our names with such detail & care (btw, love David in blue) … you guys are awesome … just wish that I could do something special for all of you in return … thank you & hope everyone in the Voice family had a joyful Valentine’s Day!
Thank you so much for the news that Patti is home! I’m so happy for her and her family! 🙂
Djafan,
That pic ^. Did I use it in the slideshow? It is very pretty. Maybe you could move it over to the next post?
Loved all the comments today. Got a little emotional reading some of them. 😥 All of you are each so special in your own unique way and I am so grateful for what you contribute. I hope you will always feel at home here and appreciated because you are.
Thank you for including my name in that wonderful Smilebox slideshow! I mostly lurk and don’t post very often, but I always enjoy reading the stories and comments…so much creative talent here! I get a warm fuzzy feeling when I come to this site…and feel uplifted when I leave.
Great news about Pattirae…her daughters have done such an awesome job of updating all of us! So glad she’s home now! ❤

By the way, this article has been tweeted to our sweetest Valentine, David! We’ll never know if he saw it but it brings a huge smile to my face to imagine the huge smile on his face if and when he does! 😀
This entire post was such a labor of love, from start to finish. Djafan and her wonderful screencaps contributed greatly to Angelica’s awesome slideshow. Abrra and I had a hoot gathering all your names for the slideshow and wordle. You, dear commenters are such a joy to hang out with each and every day to discuss our favorite subject. 😉
Thank you for the links with the good news on Pattirae! Patti, if you’re able to read this site today, we love you and miss you!!!

Happy Anniversary to Betsy!

Angelica assembled the smilebox, not I. Lol She has way more patience than me. Djafan dug deep into her picture file and sent some in for the project.
Searching out names for the wordel was like taking a walk to visit old friends. Many pages of posts , finding all your names. Bebe and I had a blast!
If you look close you might even see the name Lurker. Someone actually posted with that name. Had they not, I was going to add it to represent all the wonderful , bashful lurkers we have here.
Ok back to work for me!

New interview with David from Reader’s Digest Philippines. Seems pretty recent, perhaps it’s in their February issue.
“No more “David Who?”
Even with three albums and a book under his belt, American Idol alum David Archuleta remains grounded and clear of where his career – and his life – are heading
By Ng Enna
Before his stint on American Idol, David Archuleta thought that he was never going to make it in show business. Things have certainly picked up since then. The 20-year-old American pop singer-songwriter was propelled into the limelight during the seventh season of the popular TV talent show in 2008, where he emerged runner-up.
In the same year, Archuleta released his self-titled debut. The first single “Crush” was so well received that it hit No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 the week it was released and has since sold more than two million downloads. Archuleta’s sophomore record The Other Side of Down was released last October, showcasing a variety of tracks from upbeat tunes like “Elevator” to slow-tempo melodies like “My Kind of Perfect”.
Archuleta was in Singapore for a promotional visit last November where he spoke to the media at The Ritz Carlton, Millenia hotel. Clad in a grey tee, black jeans and striped cardigan, the baby-faced crooner flashed his mega-watt smile at a roomful of journalists. Archuleta abandoned his usual shy and soft-spoken demeanour and amidst lots of laughter and even some good-natured tickling, opened up about his music, his family and his future plans.
Reader’s Digest: It’s your second visit to Singapore. Did you get a chance to sample more local food this time around?
Archuleta: It’s interesting because it’s hard for me to have seafood. Last year I wasn’t able to do any seafood, this time I’ve been more open to prawns so it’s, like, slowly but surely. I had some [seafood] when we were at Longbeach [seafood restaurant] and [in a sing song voice] I had chicken rice yesterday. That was good.
Your mum used to be a Latin dancer. Have you ever tried Latin dancing?
Yeah, I have actually. I love Bachata. I like to try Salsa. I just love that music. It makes me move.
Is that why you’re planning to do a Spanish language album?
That is something that I’m really hoping to get to do in the future – a Spanish album. Half of my family is Hispanic, so it’d be really great to be able to get back to those people and connect with them.
How would you describe your relationship with your family?
My relationship has actually gotten stronger the more I’ve been away from them. I appreciate them more. It’s like I had to have them not there to realise how important they are to me ’cos before, it was so easy, they were always there. And now, it’s like “Man! I really miss my family.” I realise how big a part of my life they are.
Do you feel like you are missing out on quality time with them because of your career?
Nope, because I really make an effort to go home as much as I can even if it’s just for a day or two sometimes. There was a day when I just flew in that morning and I had to leave that night. But it’s worth it. If you’re gonna spend money, that’s a good thing to spend it on.
Have you written any songs for your family?
I’ve written some songs about my family. A lot of them didn’t make it on the album though [laughs].
If you do have a relationship with someone, would you write about it in your songs?
Probably. There are so many love songs [out there] because that’s what really motivates people. That’s kind of why I decided to stay away from love songs this time. I don’t know how long I’m not gonna have those experiences for so I want to talk about other things. I’m sure I’m not the only person out there who hasn’t been in a relationship. So I would want to be able to relate to that audience too.
So do you have a time frame for when you want to settle down eventually?
Right now, family is the most important thing to me. Whatever future family I’m gonna have, it’ll be very important too. It’s a matter of making sure that I prepare myself for whomever that person is. I want to be ready so that I am good enough for whoever it is.
Any plans for the future?
The future’s wild, that’s for sure. [This year] I’m hoping to focus on touring. I like to go do shows live; it’s just a very different connection with the audience. It’s been fun doing a bunch of appearances like radio shows back in the States. I’ve gone to do a couple of [radio shows] with artistes like Natasha Bedingfield, Bruno Mars and even The Gin Blossoms.
How long do you think you will last in this industry?
A few years ago, I just kind of felt like, “Well, maybe it won’t happen to me.” But life had different plans. You never know how long something can last. It can all end in six months, who knows? Whether the success or that kind of notoriety still lasts, I’d still always do music because that’s what I love.”

Thanks for bringing that article over.A few statements David made were so honest.
“It’s a matter of making sure that I prepare myself for whomever that person is. I want to be ready so that I am good enough for whoever it is.”
Please, there are hundreds of thousands of people who want her to be good enough for you too! The biggest decision in life, and look how he thinks he needs to measure up. He really has his head on straight.
“It can all end in six months, who knows? Whether the success or that kind of notoriety still lasts, I’d still always do music because that’s what I love.”
Can’t say this enough. Trust The Archuleta! He has so much talent in him. He has a long singing career ahead. Management and labels can be changed, the one constant is that he is the best singer out there. Concerts are his best performances. Motab and the last 2 shows in Texas and California showed a more versatile and confident David. He will make his own way, no matter what.Right from the man himself.
“I’d still always do music because that’s what I love.”
Thank you David! We will be right there with you. Every step of the journey.

I was waiting to see who would comment first on the Singapore interview. I agree with Abrra; trust the Archuleta. He tells us how it is and reassures us that he always wants to do music. That’s enough for me.
How did you like this question/answer?
“Your mum used to be a Latin dancer. Have you ever tried Latin dancing?
Yeah, I have actually. I love Bachata. I like to try Salsa. I just love that music. It makes me move.”
Whoa baby! David, do you know that we’re waiting for a sample of those moves you referred to? So you will probably incorporate those salsa/bachata moves into your next performance, yes? Of course you’re reading this David. LOL
One can dream…
and this…
“It’s a matter of making sure that I prepare myself for whomever that person is. I want to be ready so that I am good enough for whoever it is.”
You don’t hear young people talk that way; you just don’t. He will tell you he’s immature but the reality is that he is more mature than most men three times his age.

The smilebox you created…OH MY!! What can I say? It’s a piece of art with an Adonis as your subject. It almost hurts to look at the photos & screen caps you used. David’s beauty is completely spellbinding, mesmerizing & hypnotizing.
The collage, the video, the wordle, the smilebox…all are so obviously a labor of love for David. The collaboration between the four of you created a truly beautiful Valentine for David. Thank you for including all The Voice family.
I hope he felt all the love and admiration his fans feel for him, not just today, but every moment of every day. I hope he knows we are here for the long haul..forever. I hope he knows how much we miss him. I hope he never forgets how much he is truly loved.
