These two tweets say it all.

@misscaragrogan@david never heard of this bloke until today. Ridiculously talented. What a voice.
CraigLeesonCraig Leeson If my voice dies I want it to come back as david archuleta. Just want to flick his ears the young pup.
I couldn’t sleep and went to twitter and surprise surprise. There was a link to watch David perform on livestream along with many up waiting for David to perform. Was fun. Wait sucked the air out of me.
JR has great quality but doesn’t have them all up yet. Westlife has them up. I’ll update with JR’s as she uploads them.

Oh my! Yes David does have PR people and the best kind in case anyone is wondering anymore!
See how he can touch the people all around the world? His choices of songs, well David you have the messages right there in the palm of your hands. Sometimes we think that he should be on some show like DWTS and then we see and listen to something like this in the cold early morning and everything else seems so small.
His songs are like bolts of lightening in the right places at the right time., ..
Night owls and ninjas, you have done it…

Thank you so much for posting these performances — David’s voice is beyond amazing. Oh my, the yearning in “Wait” — heart-wrenching, and I think that’s my favourite rendition of “Crazy”. What the heck, every song was perfect. David is perfect! (the ‘merry men’ were darn good too)

Wow! What a pleasant surprise to wake up and find our Ninja’s have a whole concert available for us.
What a beautiful heartfelt Acoustic concert for such a fine occasion. I’m so glad they selected David and his musicians to perform for the CASBAA Convention and Debut of TV 365.
The dedication for Japan was special. GGTT was such a great choice.
I’ve been Waiting for Wait and love that debut performance. Every song was special in it’s own way and the messages seem so meaningful each time David sings after his little Intro’s.
Proud of David!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Looking forward to the Video, the Ronald McDonald benefit, the Ice Skating Show, Singapore and the Christmas Tour. We keep getting more surprises each day.

Thanks so much for bringing us all the vids from his performance!! His voice sounded great! I like ALL the performances, but was actually a little surprised at how much I like this acoustic version of TOSOD.
I must say, it was interesting to see him sitting for almost the whole performance. It did look like he was having a hard time holding still on TOSOD. LOL Chair dancing David FTW. 😀
And I love WAIT! I can’t wait to see the video.

I can’t believe I’m up lol I’m sure I’ll pay for it later. David’s voice is in my head spinning and circling all around. When he said he was going to sing Wait I couldn’t believe my ears. Bebe must have spotted me on twitter and texted me. I am never up that late. Good thing I was. David is incredible.
I love his banter.
After reading all the talk of the fetus on twitter and DWTS (not good by the way) I decided to take a look. Seriously I don’t get it, he really can’t sing! And on top of that attitude like I know I’m good. This reminds me of the story of the emperor’s clothes, no one tells him he’s naked, no one is telling him he can’t sing!

What a delightful show last night. It amazed me that so many people were up and on Twitter, waiting, in case there as a livestream of the show. Sure enough a link appeared and what a thrill it was to watch in real time. I loved the backup singing by the band. David was oozing with confidence.
“Wait” was a lot of fun, sung live!
Hope it’s now part of the pop portion of the MKOC setlist.
FYI, it is 2:37 AM in Hong Kong now.

Make a Difference
David Archuleta will “Make a Difference” for children battling cancer, as he joins fellow FOX’s American Idol alumni David Cook and Constantine Maroulis for a star-studded concert at Ronald McDonald House® New York on Tuesday, November 8th.
Now in its third year, “Make a Difference” evening at Ronald McDonald House® New York, raises funds in support of children with cancer and their families.
The evening will also honor retail veteran Tom Murry, president and CEO of Calvin Klein.
Ronald McDonald House® New York is a “home away from home” that offers children with cancer and their families shelter and support while undergoing active treatment. It is the largest Ronald McDonald House with 84 rooms, and more than 25,000 children have stayed at the facility since it opened its doors on Manhattan’s Upper East Side.
Make a difference, too! Please, visit http://www.rmh-newyork.org for more information.
Nice to see that David will spend some time with Cook 🙂 November is a busy month, eh David?
I found this D squared fan video. It’s got some nice clips and photos.

Heidijoy,
Kitty has never left her post on the top right sidebar since he left.
I will post SF’s prayer and keep him in mine as I know you all will also.
Lord,
Please take care of David. Watch over him and protect him from all harm.
Cloak him with your love and give him the strength to endure all that is thrown in his path.
Give David the courage and guidance to say no to those who ask for more than he can reasonably give.
Surround David with people who will love and support him unconditionally as we do and always will.
Separate David from those who have agendas other than for his well being.
Give him rest when he’s weary and stamina to sustain his hectic pace.
Give him assurance when he feels doubt and give him joy when he feels sad.
Keep him always in your protective arms during this time on his journey to Hong Kong and back home again.
Keep David and and his voice healthy & strong as he continues to fulfill his Destiny.
May he continue to encounter goodwill and happiness wherever his life’s journey takes him.
And please Lord, give us the wisdom to do right by David always.
Help us in the way we support him so that it is always in his best interests.
Though we may be unworthy, we humbly pray.
Amen
David, best wishes for an uneventful & easy flight. Thank you for all you do and for who you are.
Keep with you all our love, support & prayers always. Contigo siempre! We will be with you always!

Ask one of your techy family members to set up Tweetdeck on your computer. You can set up “Search” windows and see anyone’s time line in real time. It’s like a browser for twitter. You have to sign up for twitter to use Tweetdeck. You log in to it with your twitter info.You don’t have to “follow” those who you add a search window. For example you can add a search DavidArchie column and see his tweets and all the ones that mention his twitter name.

When you follow other people, they become your friend and that column will appear, I think. Send me your phone number thevoiceda@gmail.com and I will call you Friday and help you out? Busy tonight, but free the rest of the weekend.
Here is the help page. You might find answers to your questions.

There are so many new videos to watch here tonight…..
I clicked on to the “Group Card” that was last posted above by Bebe for our friend Theresa The condolences are heart warming and so wonderful to see that they are from at least four sites…The funeral for her husband was held this morning.
Thank you for posting David’s travel prayer Angelica…
Oh the poor kitty, she is so loyal and has such a great personality it seems…

Hong Kong Acoustic David, unbelievable.
With every performance he continues his evolution of this insanely ridiculous one of a kind talent. I do believe these are now my favorite versions of every song he sang. The band, stellar! Loved it! Wait, killer. EWTRTW, can’t even talk about it because there really are no words.
Really, really…really liked the stool. Focus on the songs, his incredible stylizing, and of course, the voice.
Amazing. Amazing. Amazing.
Oh yeah… and it looks to be a very nice video. 😉

And everyone: thanks so much for the site and all you do!

Reports are that David is leaving Hong Kong.
@Jessaminenr
Kitty has never left her post on the top right sidebar since he left.
I will post SF’s prayer and keep him in mine as I know you all will also.
Lord,
Please take care of David. Watch over him and protect him from all harm.
Cloak him with your love and give him the strength to endure all that is thrown in his path.
Give David the courage and guidance to say no to those who ask for more than he can reasonably give.
Surround David with people who will love and support him unconditionally as we do and always will.
Separate David from those who have agendas other than for his well being.
Give him rest when he’s weary and stamina to sustain his hectic pace.
Give him assurance when he feels doubt and give him joy when he feels sad.
Keep him always in your protective arms during this time on his journey to Hong Kong and back home again.
Keep David and and his voice healthy & strong as he continues to fulfill his Destiny.
May he continue to encounter goodwill and happiness wherever his life’s journey takes him.
And please Lord, give us the wisdom to do right by David always.
Help us in the way we support him so that it is always in his best interests.
Though we may be unworthy, we humbly pray.
Amen
David, best wishes for an uneventful & easy flight. Thank you for all you do and for who you are.
Keep with you all our love, support & prayers always. Contigo siempre! We will be with you always!
Please stay safe & take care

I love dim sum, so glad he had the opportunity to try it. I would have loved to have seen him trying all that food. I’m not to fond of the red beans myself lol.

Oh my goodness! DHL just now delivered my autographed GCT CD — I ordered it from Deseret online only yesterday, the 3rd! I did pay for priority shipping but wow, how fast is that when it even had to cross the border? Also, I’m amazed how David even manages to dot the ‘i’ and cross the ‘t’ after seeing his speed-signing in that video! Mr. Perfection he is.
