David Archuleta ~ I Am Here

Posted by bebereader on Wednesday, January 18, 2012

Do you dare step away from your computer to do something menial like oh…eat, sleep or pay a bill without feeling that you might miss something? Do you keep refreshing every minute so as not to miss a tweet? Do you feel compelled to stay in constant touch with what David is doing in The Philippines? I think it’s safe to say that we are drowning in news but that is not a complaint. He is embracing acting, the newest endeavor in his life. I’m not at all surprised that he’s loving it. From the beginning we knew that he had a natural acting  ability. It was only a matter of time before it could happen. I’m amazed and beyond thrilled at how relaxed he is.

So relaxed that director Mac Alejandre had this to say about him:

David is such a delight to work with. He knows what’s expected of him. And he’s a perfectionist. Siya mismo ang gustong umulit ng eksena [He offers to do a scene over] if he feels he can do more. If only he could stay here longer, it would be great to do a movie with him. For a first-time actor, he’s a natural.”

I remember several months ago when I read the first rumblings on Twitter about David doing a miniseries in The Philippines. For the most part, the tweets from fans there were negative. Overjoyed at the prospect of having David come there again but not so much for a soap opera type miniseries. Perhaps soaps aren’t the most revered type of TV fare but why do I know that this one will be different? Maybe because I know that David only gets involved in things with positive messages. We don’t know the entire plot of “Nandito Ako“,  but I have every faith that we won’t be disappointed

We are blessed with a treasure trove of memorable projects before his mission: an English version of “Nandito Ako” called “Forever With You”, a rumored Valentine concert in Singapore and a five-week TV series including a concert scene to warm our hearts. Add to this, an appearance on Saturday on a TV show called “Will Time Big Time”.

The U.S. entertainment industry is clearly missing out on a gem of an entertainer, so versatile that everything he takes on turns out to be ridiculously amazing. He’s like the best guarded secret that will one day be impossible to ignore.

    One might think a certain amount of praise would be good for publicity (my cynical side….) but this does not sound like that kind of a comment at all. He sounds sincerely impressed. And I am impressed as well. DA never ceases to amaze. (Just gonna keep using that DA word.)

    Bebe, your post pretty much sums up the way all of us feel. It’s harder on people that have to go to work, so I’m thankful that I can take my cd’s and give the residents David concerts. They just love him and today 3 ladies were singing along with him. Even tho they were so off tune, it was so endearing and sweet.

    Love the lead off picture…they look so cute…almost alike.

    Love the song. Very emotional, the very thing that David knows how to do. Can’t wait to hear it all and see the whole series!

    Bebe, this is a GREAT article!! My first thought after the clip was taken down last night was “I’m so glad I was online!! I might have missed it!!” LOL

    That clip is just gorgeous. I’ve seen many comments that his diction is almost perfect. The way he is able to sing so beautifully in languages that are foreign to him truly amazes me. The list of things he is able to do really well just keeps getting longer. He is gifted in so many ways. ♥

    And he does appear to be very relaxed. I love his body language in the photos and short vids we’ve seen, very laid back and confident. I”m sure the fact that everyone there is behind him and he knows he has their support helps his confidence a great deal. So, thanks so much to everyone involved in this project.

    Love you, David! I just know you’re doing great! (The fact that, besides being so talented, he is also gorgeous is just an added bonus LOL)

I’m really hoping that while he is gone for the next 2 years, enough material will be time-released, over the course, to keep his name current. My personal opinion is that this hiatus can be good for him in the fact that the wanna-be’s will fade away, and David will prove to be a much more mature and stand-on-my-own-two-feet type of artist.

    This song has captured my heart ♥♥. I can’t wait for it to be released (both languages), and I sure do hope that the clip that is out now is the only thing that is released before then. I would suspect that it will be that way.

    That’s why David is so loved– he is so giving and selfless with his God-given talents (all of them). If that’s ‘sappy’ then we are in for mega gallons of syrup, ’cause I’m willing to bet that you aren’t the only tree feeling that way. 😉

    Yes, David is unbelievable. His Tagalog diction is almost perfect in that NA clip, for someone who’s just maybe practiced a few days how these Tagalog words should be spoken, he’s done great. I’m sure the rest of the song is just as smooth. I’m Filipino and I can’t trace a foreign accent in there except in the word “puso”. Even in the very difficult words which foreigners reallly find difficult, he nailed it….(and with the perfect emotions too, I can’t even…) WOW, David, YOU are impressive!!

    Bebe,
    Thanks for making me feel at least a little normal about all of this ArchuMadness I have been experiencing the last few days. I was starting to feel guilty that I stay up late each night and then anxiously hurry my family out the door again each morning so I can have my “David time” all to myself. Need to eliminate the distractions as much as possible to fully appreciate the amazingness of it all.

    #10 SB,
    Thanks for reminding me of that Thoreau quote. I used that same quote in a post about David for my blog way back in July 2010. That seems like so long ago. So much has transpired in the ArchuWorld since then, but I think that quote is even more appropriate now. In my post, I talked about it being okay to be different because “those who march to a different drummer may end up making the most valuable contributions to humanity as a whole.” Little did I know, our “drummer boy” would not only march to a different beat, but he would invent his on beat, one which will surely have a profound effect on the world. Beat that drum David; we’re listening and loving it.

    It is amazing how Daivd can sing in any language and we all just die from it, even if we don’t understand a word of it. Who else does this? I’ve never felt this way before. I’m reminded of a song from way back in time, 1971 to be exact (yes, I am THAT old) by Roberta Flack entitled “Killing Me Softly With His Song.” See if some of these lyrics don’t fit the way we all feel about David.

    Strumming my pain with his fingers
    Singing my life with his words
    Killing me softly with his song
    Killing me softly with his song
    Telling my whole life with his words
    Killing me softly with his song

    I heard he sang a good song
    I heard he had a style
    And so I came to see him
    To listen for a while
    And there he was this young boy
    A stranger to my eyes

    Strumming my pain with his fingers
    Singing my life with his words
    Killing me softly with his song
    Killing me softly with his song
    Telling my whole life with his words
    Killing me softly with his song

    I felt all flushed with fever
    Embarassed by the crowd
    I felt he found my letters
    And read each one out loud
    I prayed that he would finish
    But he just kept right on

    Strumming my pain with his fingers
    Singing my life with his words
    Killing me softly with his song
    Killing me softly with his song
    Telling my whole life with his words
    Killing me softly with his song

    He sang as if he knew me
    In all my dark despair
    And then he looked right through me
    As if I wasn’t there
    And he just kept on singing
    Singing clear and strong

    Strumming my pain with his fingers
    Singing my life with his words
    Killing me softly with his song
    Killing me softly with his song
    Telling my whole life with his words
    Killing me softly with his song

    [Break]

    Strumming my pain with his fingers
    Singing my life with his words
    Killing me softly with his song
    Killing me softly with his song
    Telling my whole life with his words
    Killing me

    He was strumming my pain
    Yeah, he was singing my life
    Killing me softly with his song
    Killing me softly with his song
    Telling my whole life with his words
    Killing me softly
    With his song

    A fan recap of the David came to Philippines from #followarchuletaph

    A day dreams came true by Joanna Manalo

    ” From the airport, we all went to Edsa Shangrila Hotel where we knew David would be having a press conference later in the day. Although only a few had passes to join the pres con, some fans just stayed in the hotel, just to be “near” David. At the press conference, David was his usual charming and rambling self and answered so many questions that brought clarification to a lot of speculation that has been going on ever since he announced his plan to go on his mission, the most important of which is whether he would return to music after his mission. A lot have wondered…and feared that he wouldnt! And his answer was “YES”… he said “BECAUSE IT IS MY PASSION”! Although I always knew ( yes , I never feared that he wouldn’t) that he would return to do even better music, it was comforting to finally hear him say it finally! There will be more music….there will be more concerts! I think a lot of people around the world breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this! And even better than this, he said is trying to record some songs before he goes on his mission. Songs that could be released at intervals during the time he is away. So he will be “around” even if he is not around! As he mentioned in a private conversation with fans after the press-con, he says he values the relationship he has with his fans and does not want to just leave us hanging and just away. Aside from possible release of songs, he says he will try to find a way to keep in touch, even if just through the internet! It is this attitude of David, this acknowledgment of a relationship with fans, this reciprocation of our love for him that makes us love him even more! So much more that it doesn’t matter where he goes, or how long he is away, he should know that we will support him in all his endeavors…and will be here waiting for him! NANDITO KAMI ! — WE ARE HERE, David! (BTW, David,we can’t wait to hear your full version of Nandito Ako)”

    I missed the clip of the song last night but caught it later on.
    The melody is beautiful but with David’s voice behind it, it takes on a life of it’s own and I can see why you call it a lullaby.

    Munk,
    Thanks for your comment. It made me feel so good inside when I read it.

    Sky,
    “David may not be a seasoned actor, but he is a ‘seasoned professional.’ So true! And it shows in everything he does.

    Heidijoy,
    Watching him being treated like royalty makes me think that they see just what we see while the rest of the world has gone mad.

    MT,
    Thank you! When I was in college I had a friend who majored in romance languages and so she was able to speak many of them but I have to admit that she couldn’t get the French accent down. She tried but never succeeded. David tries and succeeds. You’re right; he’s gifted in so many ways.

    Tawna,
    I don’t know what is going to wake up and shake up the U.S. entertainment industry. They are missing out on a gem. I think it’s the values of the American public that has to change before the industry changes. The industry only caters to what the public wants with is trash TV, movies and music. And that alone is a sad state of affairs.

    Lani,
    Thanks for your comment and your analysis of David’s diction of Tagalog. He said he studied the song on the long plane ride but it still amazes me that he can get the accent right, first time out.

    NcgirlMarylee,
    I totally agree with you about Kari. It seems like a perfect fit of artist and road manager. Thanks for your comment.

    Oh Bebe! When I read “I have every faith that we won’t be disappointed” I could not think of any time I have been disappointed in David. Except when he leaves the stage. Then it’s always “Wait, don’t go”.

    Jan wrote “Very emotional, the very thing David knows how to do.” As I was scrutinizing the 2 inch stack of photos of David that Jan took at the SL Christmas tour I was struck by how many different emotions crossed David’s face in that short span of time. Joy, concern, pleasure, humility,compassion, love, expectation, surprise, kindness, wonder, boldness, respect, appreciation, confidence all coming from deep within him. Nothing shallow or forced.

    PandasMama, I’ve always loved that Roberta Flack song. Until you brought it here I had not thought of it pertaining to David, but it is so fitting.

    My best laugh for today came while watching the video at #9 when the interviewer told David he had been in a bar. His reaction at around 2:45 is priceless.

    25.Oh wow! Bebe, love that video! Thank you!

    I don’t think I told you how much I liked your article and the points you made♥In line with that,I also agree with what you said at
    28. to Tawna.
    “I don’t know what is going to wake up and shake up the U.S. entertainment industry. They are missing out on a gem. I think it’s the values of the American public that has to change before the industry changes. The industry only caters to what the public wants with is trash TV, movies and music. And that alone is a sad state of affairs.”
    AMEN to that!
    The Philippines loves David David the person, Davids beautiful voice, and the positive uplifting messages that voice carries have been “heard”,celebrated, and praised in a land far away……they are honored to have him starring in a miniseries, written for him when they know he had no acting experience!! They believe in him, the way we do! I love them♥

    why the movers and shakers. in the USA,don’t know a rare gem when they see one>>more rare and precious and genuine a talent and role model for humans then we have ever encountered in our lifetime, is beyond sad…it’s unbelievable.

    I see what you mean about the lyics to “Killing Me Softly With His Song”!!! It’s a perfect fit.

    Dayzee,
    David never disappoints.

    Betsy,
    Your motto is my motto. 🙂

    David tweets:

    I’m thankful for the awesome feeling you get after you exercise. It puts you in a happy mood. 34 minutes ago

    Kari tweets:

    Got a late call today since shooting was late last night due to a rain delay. Well, if you call 9:30 late! 🙂 but having fun on set!

    Skydancer,
    I totally agree. Interestingly, the lyrics that come to mind are those of “Waiting On The World To Change”, David’s AI audition song.

    “…Now we see everything that’s going wrong
    With the world and those who lead it
    We just feel like we don’t have the means
    To rise above and beat it

    So we keep waiting
    Waiting on the world to change
    We keep on waiting
    Waiting on the world to change

    It’s hard to beat the system
    When we’re standing at a distance
    So we keep waiting
    Waiting on the world to change…”

    Thanks as and dja for the pictures—that young boy does look a lot like young David—the shape of the face and the smile–and the hair—speaking of which—just a couple of run throughs with the fingers-to get it off the forehead –please!!! After all, he is David Archuleta( 2012) not Rudolph Valentino ( 1921) !! He’s more handsome than Rudy anyway!! 8)

    Abs, I do have a Ken doll ( my daughters from when she was little) that has very dark real hair (not plastic molded stuff) I think I’ll go free him from his case and re-style his hair today. My very own David doll!!

    Bebe, You mean I have work around the house?–I hadn’t noticed–my brain is on one track for the next few weeks and can’t be disturbed—or should I say I”M disturbed.

    For example: when not at the computer treating my eyes–I’m thinking–(oh oh)
    about the silliest things –like— “If only he could stay here longer, it would be great to do a movie with him. For a first-time actor, he’s a natural.”

    Well, if I still know how to cypher 😕 –here’s my calculations. From what I’ve read this series will be on for !/2 hour every weekday for three weeks–let’s say minus commercials -that’s 24 min. a day. 24×5=120 min. 120 min. X 3 weeks=360 min–. divided by 60 min ( a hour) =6 hrs. That’s not counting what will end up on the cutting room floor.

    Haven’t been to a movie in years, but don’t they run around 2 hrs? So according to my brain power —that’s like 3 movies, isn’t it?? 😯

    But you love someone else
    That’s why you don’t notice me
    Yet still I want you to know
    My heart is only for you

    CHORUS:
    I am here loving you
    Though my heart is bleeding.
    In case he leaves you
    Don’t you worry
    There is someone who loves you
    I am here

    If you will love me
    No need to worry
    Because I am like your slave
    Just for you, no one else

    But you now love someone else
    That’s why you don’t notice me
    Yet still I want you to know
    My heart is only for you

    I am here loving you
    Though my heart is bleeding.
    In case he leaves you
    Don’t worry
    There is someone who loves you
    I am here

    I am here loving you
    Though my heart is bleeding.
    In case he leaves you

    There is someone who loves you

    Oh, Gladys, that song brings back memories of Junior High!! I had a juke box in my basement, and that was one of the songs it played. I never knew what it meant, but I could sing most of the song. Both of my children went on Spanish speaking missions, and it wasn’t until just recently that they shared with me what it meant. I think it would be awesome for David to go to a Spanish speaking country on his mission to be able to more fully embrace the language and culture of his heritage.

    Wow, some of those tweets from MyDear Writer over the past few days are a bit revealing as to how grueling David’s schedule is! Hopefully he is hanging in there, and able to have some fun too. Amazing for him to go from acting novice to leading man, and with such an intense shooting schedule!…

    “I just checked the Day 3 sequences of #NanditoAko. Wow, tomorrow is a challenging day for @DavidArchie. FTW!”

    “Looking at the day-to-day sequences of #NanditoAko- can’t help but admire @DavidArchie coz he has to be on cam- like most of the time!”

    “If I remember it right @DavidArchie gets a time off after Day 5. This is such an intense week- but wait- there’s more!”

    “This week is just the appetizer. Next week is the main course. So many challenging scenes for @DavidArchie ♥”

    And this tweet by one of his co-stars…

    “Sneaking a nap while I’m not needed on set. We’ve all been running on less than 5 hours of sleep since Monday.”

    #97- No doubt this chicken (chick in rooster disguise) saw it as it’s only chance to make an impression on David!

    The guy behind David and to his right ” Is this guy for real?” He is real alright. One of the thousand and one reasons we are enchanted by this young man. : )

    Charming? David? They are only seeing the tip of the iceberg. He is killah charming. Can’t wait to see him up on the big screen and maybe soon singing NA. Get those stretchers lined up.

    The slugabed is up! I laughed so hard at that pic of him holding a chicken with that look of pure joy on his face! I seem to recall he has always had a fondness for chickens and loved playing with them as a child. And once he was asked what his favorite animal was and he said chicken. When asked “why chicken”, he said cause he liked eating them. hahaha! If I’m twisted, I’m in good company, Abrra.

    Last night I said,

    Do you think he will sing Nandito Ako? It’s supposed to be released to itunes soon. That would be a great way to promote!

    And this morning he said,

    So Eula is hurt? 😦 Will she miss the promo? 😦
    I have wondered about the schedule they are on,and takes, and retakes, and (rain) days etc… if they are going to go over schedule for filming this show. Unless they have built in time to include things like that? Just thinking out loud. wonder if David will be in every daily episode?

    I keep looking at David and the chick.(so cuuuute! Look at that smile, and those big warm hands of his encompass the whole chicken! No wonder it looks hypnotized and mesmerized.

    Sky,
    They probably have a certain number of scenes they have to shoot each day so they stay on schedule. If scenes go well, they knock off a little earlier, if there are a lot of retakes, they probably stay a little later.

    As for that chicken, LOL, it sure looks comfy in David’s hands. No splayed talons, nice and relaxed. I wonder if it stopped cackling after he put it down. LOL He does seem to have a calming influence on most creatures. 😉

    From her tweets, it looks like Eula is going to be ok, but needs to rest for a couple of days, wear flats, and take some meds. I’m glad it wasn’t anything too serious. She will probably miss the mall appearance though.

    I think David absolutely loves acting and would make a great leading man, not just because of his good looks. He understands that acting is like singing in that for both you have to emote to get a message across to the audience. The better you understand your character, the better you can transmit the message. His director called him a natural. Let’s hope that the acting bug bit him so hard that we can see him on the big screen in years to come.

    Gahhh, I just saw it!! Good thing you warned me. Those eyes will take your breath away!
    (BTW How’s Kitty? LOL Hairless yet?)

    Watch David’s facial expressions in this closeup video (Thank you JR!). Is it just me or are there some that we’ve never seen before? I know I’m reiterating but I’ve never seen his smile as big as it is in this video. Being in a place where he knows he is totally accepted and loved brings this out of him, IMO. Heck, it would bring it out of me too!

    WARNING!”It was so big,the first thing I saw was a bit of his hair and moisture on his forehead I had to use the arrows on the computer to move it into view. I almost keeled over when his green eyes came into view on my screen. GAH!!”

  176. Wow JR’s videos were sooo good. Djafan#175 – agree, he looked gorgeous, every cell. His eyes are so captivating. Had to watch it several times cause I got lost watching them turn from gold to green to brown & even blue (??). Is that possible? Must have been the lighting or backdrop. Djafan #161 & Bebereader#173 – love the Filipino’s. Everyone treats him like we feel he should be treated – from the co stars to the tv5 interviewers, to the director (love that clip of him, so elated), not just his devoted fans. It reminds me of 2008 in the US – during AI & AI tour.

    Saw this tweet this morning …

    “percinotpercy Perci Intalan
    Just had another moment as a producer. What began as a wild idea is now something your audience will fall in love with. That’s our moment.”

    It doesn’t actually say Nandito Ako, but it sounds like that “wild idea” may be David’s mini series, and that it just may be coming out much better than they ever dreamed it would.

    And JR posted another arrival video. This one is REALLY good.

    I almost didn’t get past the 10:30 mark. lol Watch 10:25-10:30. David looks out the window and waves, they scream, and he giggles, like he still can’t believe he can have that effect, making people scream with just a wave. He’s still so tickled by it all. Love him. ♥

    Admins, if this has been posted already, please feel free to delete. I didn’t see it up there. Oh and BTW, checking up thread got me lost for about 30 min. haha Lots of David goodness in this thread.

    Thanks to all who posted all these goodies. 🙂 You all make my day.♥

    For being the main character in a 5 wk miniseries as his first acting role, he is incredibly relaxed. No outward signs of stress or anxiety. No mention of it being more difficult than expected.

    Not to mention tons of promo/interviews and then on to the recording studio – and recording in a language he doesn’t speak. How does he do it. How?

    (this could be shaping up to be sumthin’ sumthin’)

    Sounds like the ‘powers that be’ are more than pleased with the way things are going. So proud of David, I am just finding it more and more challenging, to put that pride and love into “words” anymore.

    I was asking myself the very same question. I have no idea how he just kees on doing things like this, as if it’s just another adventure for him. No big deal.
