David Archuleta @DavidArchie Last week of Nandito Ako! Hope you all enjoy it!
Posted by djafan on Sunday, March 18, 2012
Team #DA2014 is putting together a video to highlight the incredible size and diversity of David’s fan base and will be using it to launch the DA 2014 campaign on Friday, March 23rd. DA 2014 is a new campaign that is being created to unite ALL David fans around the world together over the next 2 years around one idea:
WE WILL BE HERE

Anyone who doubts that forces greater than this world guide David’s destiny should consider this: what would the past 2 months have been like without this mini-series? On the heels of his mission announcement, he arrived in the Philippines in mid-January, setting off a daily avalanche of updates, mall appearances, photo shoots, interviews, and performances. Once rehearsal got under way, cue a plethora of pics and tweets from David, Kari, the cast, MyDearWriter and director, Mac Alejandre. I don’t think Nandito Ako was a coincidence that serendipitously came together at just the right time. I believe Somebody up there knew, not only that David needed this experience, but his fans needed the distraction during the run up to his mission departure. I believe Somebody prompted the events that unfolded and that we are the recipients of a multitude of tender mercies for standing by this young man these past four years.
Relates Perci Intalan, TV5’s, Creative and Entertainment head, “It started back in August 2011 over a casual conversation with Sony Music Philippines’ head honcho Narciso Chan, following David’s sold out concert in Manila. It was just an idea—a proposal out of the ordinary—but I told Ciso, ‘I’m serious’ if you are’,” Intalan recalled. “Before we knew it, we found ourselves negotiating with David’s lawyers in New York, Los Angeles, Singapore and Hong Kong; and by December, we were told he had accepted our offer.”
The Manila Times
Asked how much TV5 was paying David, Perci was mum, saying, “Mahal but it’s worth it.”Fearing that David would be mobbed during the mostly outdoor shoot, TV5 offered to assign a few bodyguards to him but David declined.
“He arrived with only one companion,” added Perci. “Walang entourage.”
After the shoot, David said that he wouldn’t be doing any other showbiz-related projects since he would buckle down to his mission to serve God.
“I made the promise even before I decided to come to the Philippines,” assured David.
“He arrived with only one companion,” is not precisely accurate. Somebody else was with him. Somebody he made a promise to and when David gives his word, he keeps it. He’ll be back. He has other promises to keep.
Salamat po, Lord, for tender mercies and the promise of happy endings and new beginnings. Meanwhile, on with the show!

Very sweet of you Djafan. Sent a VIP picture in to DavidArchuleta2014 @gmail.com and the info and someone ( I think Mary Lou) will add the text to my picture.
Appreciate that you realize some of us are technically challenged. Won’t need your help this time but appreciate the offer.
I made a poster but didn’t have time to get the picture taken and sent in time. Will save it for another time.

Matt Giraud. I knew I liked that guy! I remember a connection between David and Matt. They are fans of one another!
From Matt’s Twitter page:
Here’s the pic of Archie and I. Will any Twitter folks be out at the red carpet today?! I’ll be seeing you guys out there! [Kid’s Choice Awards 2009]
David mentions Matt first here, as one of his favorites:

I think that you are all very brave and have good faith and hopefully that will make a big difference in his next decision making time. I am thinking that he could possibly make an announcement maybe after a year or two, that he has had a further calling for another direction. You are all great fans and after not seeing him for so long and investing your hopes in his return, I hope that he certainly does. His age, yes his age is at a pivotal point that could take him anywhere as it does with the adventuresome 21 year olds.
Just don’t go and get yourselves hurt with yet another announcement. I have sent him a note and a Nova Scotia card. I plan on sending another in awhile…

I know in my heart that David will not stop making music, it is what he is. Whether he will marry and have kids, whether to a big or small audience, whether pop, gospel or whatever genre, he will SING, and I will be here listening to him. Thanks for the reminder though. David is worth it all!

SB, naturally I hope David comes back to music, but whatever his calling is or will be is his choice. If he never came back to music I would be so disappointed; not being able to go to concerts and watching him grow in his industry. And if he doesn’t, I will be forever grateful for the last 4 yrs of the David world that was opened up to me when I needed it. I will always cherish the good times it has given me and will always have his music to listen to and pics and videos to watch. I guess it would be like “Forever” instead of 2 yrs. But I’ll hold onto what he is saying now, that he will be back!!♥♥

SandyBeaches,
21 year-olds can be flighty but David is one of the most grounded 21year-olds I’ve encountered.
That said, it’s not likely but I can pick up and move to New Zealand or take up ballet or become an animal trainer at this stage of my life. As human beings we can change our minds at any time. David deserves that right, too. If he chooses to leave music, I might not like it but I respect him and love him so I will deal with it. When you love someone, you have to be willing to set them free.
I have not invested these four years with any guarantee that he will be here for me when he finishes his mission. I’m here because this is where I want to be. He has given me so much.

New Music is coming and The 5th week of the Mini Series. Hundreds of fans are sending messages that we will be here, just as we sang in Beaver Creek.

Wow, I don’t understand this. Supporting David will get us hurt? Showing David that we believe in him and will wait for him will get us hurt? He doesn’t have to open a vein and write in his own blood that he’ll be back and making music.I believe him. As of right now, that is his plan. He loves music, wants to make music. AFTER he’s done doing what he’s wanted to do for so long. What he feels in his heart he must do.
IF he alters his course, as some people do, then I know that we have been blessed with the best 4 years of love, music, and so much humanity that some days I still shake my head and cry. I’m a big girl, I’ll be fine.
I’ve got his back.

Lani, I’m with you. David is too entwined in music to not return to it when he gets home. He will be back, and I will be waiting for his first concert. My DA tour money jar is already getting full. 😉
Can’t wait for the last week of NA. I really don’t know which girl, if any, he will end up with. I’ve really enjoyed the series. It’s something that I will re-watch while he is gone, along with all the music he has left us with.
My postcard is sent and I have more for the coming months, Yes! He will not forget his fans with all the postcards and letters coming to him. I bet you we are in his prayers also as he is in ours.

I don’t believe that it was said that he would not return to music, or that one should not pay tribute to him. I believe that I have done that quite nicely in many ways in many places over the last 4 years so paying tribute is well known. There is nothing that anyone has to prove, but he has taken different directions in the last year and it was just a mention that he could. I enjoy paying tribute to David and the first bag/box of cards and letters came from a lot of work from a few in Arizona so the idea continues as we see from his twitpic. Don’t forget that people already, whole heartedly, set out to show David how much everyone supported him months ago. The hurt? Well the announcement in December perhaps could be called something else but there are some who still cannot listen to his music. I can and do, but there are others who still can’t.

He has said music is his passion. He has said he will be back and can not understand why some think he wont’ be. He has said he has various things lined up for when he returns. He has said he wants to do music his entire life.
No one can predict their future – not us, not David. Sometimes best laid plans are merely that, plans, that for a million and one reasons never become reality. And sometimes our best laid plans do become our reality, along with life’s inevitable detours that are a part of that reality.
I think David truly feels he has been given his gift of voice for a reason, that this voice was miraculously returned to him for a reason – to inspire others.
When he says he needs to do this, that it will make him whole – I believe him. And when he says he will resume his career when he comes back – I believe that too.

David has done all he can to reassure us that he will return to music.If that wasn’t his intention, I don’t think he would be making the effort he is making now,working so hard to be sure we have music while he is away.
Nothing in life is certain, but I believe music is the way he will earn his living when he returns.
Then there is that little “thing”
this feeling inside me…
I have always believed there is a real reason for all of us being here the way we are, something like destiny I suppose, in my mind, because David has affected so many of us, and our lives in a way we had never dreamed of, or even knew was possible
I know for certain, it is a beautiful gift. I can’t turn away from it….need to be here, I desire to learn why it was channeled to us, through this awesome human being whose solitary voice speaks to my heart and my soul like no one else has ever done before, ever!.Why? why us?

Hey all!!
We’ve all participated in showing our appreciation to David in one way or another and I for one feel the need to. It’s unexplainable, like I don’t have a choice, it’s something I have to do. So this time is no different for me, it’s not an act of courage. I’m taking David’s word at face value, he says he’s coming back to music and has some projects in place for when he returns and that’s that. In retrospect I’ve come to a realization that David has always planned on going on a mission but circumstances didn’t allow for it until now. I was in complete denial and wasn’t able to listen to his voice for about a couple a weeks. But I missed it so much that I listened and his voice healed and filled the hole I’d been feeling. I still shed tears but with them I feel an enormous amount of appreciation, pride and love for David. I’ll be here during his time away and ready for whatever may come upon his return.
I’ve received some emails for signs, thank you!!!
I’ll have them done after dinner 🙂

I will be here when David returns. I will be here to hear any announcements that come from his lips, his heart, and his soul. David will return to music. It may be different, but it will be music. I trust him. I believe him. Whatever course David Archuleta takes in two years will be the one that is going to take him where he feels he needs to go. Heaven help us when he starts that new engine up. I think his next ride will be a fast one.

There will be individuals who will lack the patience and desire to stay on board while he is away. I am not one of them. We will need constant support on the fan sites to keep the light burning until his return.

Annie,
Loved the story you told of taking your pic with David in Arizona. He takes so many pics I imagine he would get tired of it but instead he’s so willing to do that small gesture that goes a long way for his fans.
All kinds of awesome; that’s how I feel about David’s new 7 and a half minute vlog. Spending time with his sister, hanging out, eating Hondurian food, laughing, talking. It’s the stuff dreams are made of. He really knows how to do the family thing. You can tell how much he cherishes his family.Just one more reason to love the guy.

Re-read COS recently and one thing David said about his fans struck me again: “More than fans they felt like a team of Morale booster’s who would always be around to remind me of my worth”
It is quite a relationsip and exchange as I feel he is our Morale booster and role model. We are on this journey together and I will be here now, while David is gone and when he gets back.

1) I do not know how you do that
2) I was angry.
I said this many times here, that at this time does not matter.
abrra, thanks for your words, arrived at the right time, I was about to resign.
djafan, thanks for the invitation.
I’ve always said that I am very lonely, a feeling ugly, these days I felt that way.
I wanted to express this in Spanish, but I had no chance, I had to do in English, thank god was abrra.
You do not know what this community is for me. You are my support.

Bebe.♥ I count “Think of Me” as one of my favorites from AI7. I never thought it would have further significance than simply a song David sang on AI.
♥isn’t it uncanny?and yet looking back he really has done that for as long as he has been singing to us. I remember that morning when he sang this on the Today show…and how it made me feel.It was so perfect, and so poignant and so from his heart.It felt like it was his way of ‘speaking’ to the whole A7 experience and the people who supported him.
That instinct of his, as to what he sings to us…he makes every song a present that makes a full heart circle from him, to us, back to him.

Ah, today I am feeling it. Time is short. My excitement and my resignation of what is to be fact very soon.

When David sauntered out on this stage,he stunned the fans with his charm and musical ability to out sing his duet partner. It’s an iconic moment for me.
My Wish
by Rascal Flatts
I hope that the days come easy and the moments pass slow,
And each road leads you where you want to go,
And if you’re faced with a choice, and you have to choose,
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you.
And if one door opens to another door closed,
I hope you keep on walkin’ till you find the window,
If it’s cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile,
But more than anything, more than anything,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you’re out there getting where you’re getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.
I hope you never look back, but ya never forget,
All the ones who love you, in the place you left,
I hope you always forgive, and you never regret,
And you help somebody every chance you get,
Oh, you find God’s grace, in every mistake,
And you always give more than you take.
But more than anything, yeah, and more than anything,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you’re out there getting where you’re getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,

And while you’re out there getting where you’re getting to,

Song: I Hope You Dance

You get your fill to eat
But always keep that hunger
May you never take one single breath for granted
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small
When you stand beside the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me that you’ll give fate a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Living might mean taking chances
But they’re worth taking
Lovin’ might be a mistake
But it’s worth making
Don’t let some hell bent heart
Leave you bitter
When you come close to selling out
Reconsider
Give the heavens above
More than just a passing glance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
(Time is a wheel in constant motion always)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their years and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)
I hope you still feel small
When you stand beside the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me that you’ll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
Dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance

I hope you dance

TV5’s Nandito Ako airs grand finale this Friday
21-Mar-12, 1:58 PM | InterAksyon.com
MANILA, Philippines – David Archuleta fans all over the world are abuzz this week more than ever as TV5’s primetime mini-series Nandito Ako nears its much-awaited grand finale this Friday, March 23.
Top-billed by the American Idol sensation with TV5’s own homegrown stars, Jasmine Curtis Smith and Eula Caballero, Nandito Ako has become a milestone for the Kapatid Network as it was able to tap a new worldwide market with the groundbreaking show.
The popular international singer’s first Asian TV project has underscored his charisma here and abroad—marked by Nandito Ako’s unparalleled buzz online, particularly in micro-blogging site Twitter where it has been a consistent trending topic (both in Twitter Philippines and worldwide), making it one of the most talked about Philippine local programs to date.
Watch out for the remaining tear-jerker episodes of Nandito Ako that will sure to leave a mark on viewers’ hearts. After finding out that Holly (played by Eula Caballero) has brain cancer, Anya (Jasmine Curtis-Smith’s character) decides to let go of her love for Josh (played by David Archuleta), knowing that it’s the only way for the terminally-ill Holly to be happy.
Anya’s decision to leave paves the way for Josh to get closer to her best friend. But will Josh ever realize that Anya is the young girl who saved him from the fire and owns the missing piece of his watch?
Meanwhile, as Josh’s benefit concert approaches, news breaks out that he’s set to reveal the real identity of his girlfriend. Will Josh root for his real love Anya or choose to make Holly’s remaining days nothing but full of memorable and happy thoughts?
Don’t miss the remaining episodes this week of the Mac Alejandre-helmed mini-serye which also stars Gelli de Belen, Aiko Melendez and G. Tongi, with Alwyn Uytingco, Ana Capri, Mon Confiado, Ana Feleo, Joseph Bitangcol, RS Francisco, David Bianco, Byron Ortile, and Ms. Perla Bautista, airing after Wil Time Bigtime on TV5.

Abrra, Nice shot there! He’s such a cutie. But I’m kinda hoping for a nice, serious profile shot for the album. You all know how I love that profile. 🙂
Yep, NA is going to have to quickly wrap this thing up in a nice pretty bow for that happy ending. Still team Jonya, and it looks like little brother is going to be the key to bringing those watch pieces together. I, too, hope that we get a few scenes of their happiness to enjoy. 🙂
I’m sure ging to miss my soap opera when it’s over. I’ll miss the anticipation of waiting to see what happens and miss seeing his face every day.

On Grief Sep 2011
These are tender times. God be with you and those you love. I think He is closer at these moments when our hearts feel torn between two places: the one where we are, the other where we can see them go and cannot follow no matter how we reach with our hearts. But the wonder is – although our hearts ache from that stretching and we feel deeply our inadequacies, still He finds us. He reaches in and even binds together again those tenderly torn places, those loving attachments we have that, no matter how strong cannot hold our loved ones back.
His love spans and heals those distances be they of life or death.
May that bright love be with you. And Joy.

David Archuleta Finished Another Night of Recording
March 22, 2012 By Julie 1 Comment
David Archuleta has been busy in the recording studio over the last couple of weeks and fans can not wait to hear the new music he’s recording.
Last night David tweeted, “Finished another night of recording!”
The singer was also busy the other day with a photoshoot: “Doing a photoshoot today.” During his photoshoot, he ran into someone or something unexpected: “Ran into an oompa loompa during the photshoot. Who would have thought, haha.” Now that’s funny!
It was back in December when David announced he would be putting his music career on hold for two years while he went on a mission for his church. He shared, “I would like to make a special announcement: that I’ve chosen to serve a full-time mission. It’s not because somebody told me that I was supposed to do it, not because that I no longer want to do music anymore, but it’s because it’s the feeling that I felt that I need to do next in my life.”
In a recent vlog he titled “One Month”, David updated fans on what his plans were for the last month before he took off on his two year mission. He said, ““While I’ve been home I’ve really been enjoying spending time with my family, I’m getting to just see them. I have been working on, listening to the masters of the Forever More OPM album. So we’re just working on that, getting the songs finished up. Also working on an album here that we’re going to release in the US, gonna be doing just some good covers that are sort of in tune with where I’m going next in my life.”
Are you excited about his new music? Are you sad he’s putting his music career on hold for two years or are you proud of him for what he’s doing?
What a great guy David is!

My son and family has lived in TX for 11 yrs and then he got a position back up here. So he is staying with me since his twin boys are srs in hi school and their oldest daughter will be a jr next yr so they want to stretch it out up to 3 yrs with him commuting back and forth from KC to TX!

I love you David ♥
From Forevermore album liner notes to fans: “Thank you for letting me try new things, and supporting me through it all. The journey would not exist without the relationship I’ve made with all of you. What you all do has exceeded beyond my imagination when it comes to the love and support you can show, and it means the world.”

David is so loved, and so deserving of all the love. Thank you David for all the music and the fun — Nandito Ako is a treasure as will be Forevermore — how fortunate are we! God bless you David.

Have you guys listened to the UStream of the Forevermore album? I really love Rainbow. I haven’t heard it all yet, but I really like what I’ve heard so far.
Admins, I’m going to post the link to listen. It’s not CD quality because it’s a UStream, but if you still don’t want it here, please delete this comment.

#228 – Can he get any sweeter? Can’t wait to get my hands on the Forevermore CD.
JR, you are one lucky lady. Thanks for sharing what’s inside with us.
The #DA2012 video is a thing of pure joy.
I’m in tears and my heart couldn’t be fuller with love for DA and all his fans! What a great way to send him off on his new adventure.
Loved Almond’s picture, lol

I guess it shouldn’t surprise me because David’s fans are the best but I couldn’t believe how everyone was so creative in the way they made the signs and such. It was so fun to watch and see how many US states and countries I could count. I saw a lot of fans that I recognize too and that made it even more special. The whole video was put together with so much thought and love. Monica, thank you and who ever helped you for doing that for us. David is so loved.
