A Little Too Not Over David Archuleta & Nandito Ako

Posted by betsy on Tuesday, September 18, 2012

I want a Nandito Ako DVD.  I need a Nandito Ako DVD.  Not a bunch of video segments strung together.  And most certainly not a copy burned off the interwebz.  A REAL one.  A clear HD one.  I am accidentally memorizing the dialogue.  In Tagalog.  Through osmosis.

Best of all?  I love chatting about it with my friends, talking about the best parts, knowing what’s coming up, you can stop for a few minutes and make a snack, eat a piece of watermelon, pour a glass of wine, make a grilled cheese, have a laugh over that she-devil Margaret or an even bigger one over Uncle Stevil, watch D do a handstand, watch D nuzzle with a girl or two, watch D carry a girl or two, watch D yell at Anya in Tagalog on a beautiful beach, watch D & Anya fall in love on a long bus ride, watch D tell Holly that sorry, he didn’t mean to fall in love with someone else, watch D reunite with his long-lost mother, cry along with them when Holly says goodbye 😥  listen to “Nandito Ako” 857 times, listen to “I rated PG” 957 times, listen to “Wherever You Are” coming out of Holly’s walls a hundred times, take a peek at Holly’s Josh shrine in her room, watch Josh ask Aladdin “WHAT IS THE MEANING OF LAAMPA?” and watch sweet little Aladdin show him, yell at Anya to not go to the bad man’s apartment and DO NOT drink anything he gives you!

OK lol you guys get the picture.  THIS SHOW IS LIKE GOLD.  (queso lol)  And I discovered how much so after David left.

p.s.  I know I wrote D instead of Josh but it just came out like that and I am leaving it.

Also, who can forget good ole Volta saying, “Correct for a bouncing check!”?

Or any single one of his phrases:

“Are you emoting now?”
“Come on now Mando, I’ll wipe your lipstick off for you.”
“If he is now your boyfriend, tell him to introduce me to his blue-eyed blonde friends.”

And TERESA!  Who doesn’t love when she meets Josh in her house late at night and knocks him around a bit until she realizes who he is, lol, “ANYA WHY DO WE HAVE AN INTERNATIONAL STAR IN OUR HOUSE?”  “YOU LOOK LIKE AN ANGEL IN PERSON, YOU KNOW THAT?”
Ok, I may be done now.  We’ll see.  Stick a fork in me.

    I must admit, I am a Nandito Ako addict, so I can relate to what you’re saying. I’ve been patiently waiting for the DVD to come out. Will it ever come out? We’d like to know when! I just want to watch it with no interruptions! I’m just worried that by the time the DVD comes out, Josh & Anya already have grandkids. LOL

    Betsy – yes, yes and yes! I want a DVD, too. I do love watching NA with in the unplugged room on Tuesday’s, but the breaks in the action from commercials (cut our, thank you), and episode changes, make it just a bit less than optimal for viewing. However, the comments from the “peanut gallery” are priceless 🙂

I was having so much fun reading it..you are so funny hehe, yes I’ve watched it about 800 times too lol, not to mentioned the countless time I watched those fan made vids (ohnopurple) I’m still amazed that David could scold (or whatever you call it) Anya in Tagalog sooo fluently ( I believe)….I tried that but fail miserably haha, love Teresa when she met Josh for the first time too so funny-endearing, I think we can relate with her fangirling, we’d totally freak out about the same if not more !!!lol.

    Betsy, i heart you and your craziness over NA! Should I write to you in Tagalog now? Haha! Love all you love about NA! Especially the one about Teresa. I think she (or the writer) couldn’t help but say he looks like an angel in person. 😀

    I, too, am waiting for the release of the DVD. Believe it or not, I wasn’t able to follow the miniseries during it’s actual timeslot here on TV5. Had to watch episodes a day or couple of days after via the fansites. Long story, but in short I was deprived of my right as a Filipino Archie to watch NA realtime for several episodes. I missed out on the twitter trending before every episode, too. 😦 So I know what it feels like to be an overseas fan waiting eagerly for an HD copy of the teleserye.

    The little that I’ve been told about the NA DVD is that it will be released only after the miniseries is shown in the US. (Somebody might just suddenly pop up in here after watching a Maroon 5 concert tonight to share what she knows. Hint, hint. Lol!)

    Halo Halo Betsy,

    favorite parts but my most favorite is and will alway s be the bus scene:

  9. Oh Betsy hahaha! love love love Nandito Ako! Thank you for this… and for being our in- house-‘got any questions?’-go to expert on the subject of International star, Josh Bradley & Company! You are so funny, and always make Tuesday nights so much fun!
    No matter how many times we watch NA,it seems I am always finding something new to be in awe of, or something I have missed, either reading the English translation, or watching the actors.
    Watching with you guys on Tuesday nights,II’m always reminded of those five weeks we were up early every morning watching the end of “Will Time Big Time” while waiting for NA to appear, so excited to see where the days story would take us, and watching in awe as David got deeper and deeper into his character.

    David, for a first time ever actor,playing a leading man, in a love triangle you were not lampa! You were awesome!!.
    I can’t wait for the DVD.♥

    so excited about the Rainbow remix coming soon! woo hoo!

David rose to the occasion and blew me out of the water. He is such a natural and can’t wait to see more acting from him. I have a feeling we will. But in the meantime Nandito Ako Tuesday’s, BEGIN daily, all other David music on shuffle, youtube viewing as needed and night time speaking David is just what the Dr. ordered for dealing with my ODD!!!

Having never had the opportunity to see David live (yet!), I relished hearing your experiences and loved watching all the vids. (All those things I was planning to do in the past two hours weren’t really that important, right?!) I now have a happy little smile on my face and your wonderful words in my head as I go through the rest of the day. Well worth it!!! Thank you!!!

    Tuesday nights are more fun when you show up 🙂 My favorite episodes are the last 2. The watch scene makes me weepy. When I was getting up at 7 am every day ( late for work ,sometimes) to watch Nandito Ako, i would yell at the screen everytime the watch strap was shown. “THE WATCH!” I would yell. The lnk to the past and the future. MDW knew her storytelling 🙂

    Emmegirl

    I am not sure what issues you are having with Livestream. You need the most current version of Adobe flash player 11.4 . Try IE, Firefox, and Chrome. Most can get there with Chrome. Its a quick easy install. Browsers are all different in slight ways and there may be something blocking the video in the one you use. I am sad when I read that someone can’t get to chat because its a simple thing to remedy in most cases.

    Here are the pictures you spoke of from the last thread 🙂

    “You just shook your head.. doesn’t that make you happy?”

    Dear Abrra: in 26 days you will have taken 200 days off of your first year. I think that is more than a mere “head-shake”. Congrats!!!

    (lovely pics, DA…. So, what do they tell you when they stick all that gooey stuff on you to cover up your miniscule “imperfections”? That they need to do that in order to create a pic that sells a product? That your face is “art” that can add to the perceived value of their product? That people need to not be distracted too much from the stuff being sold? I have one word: FAIL *_* But, somehow… I think they know that. I hope they are paying you…. a lot. ^_^)

    (Yeah, DA. “Perfection” is such a ‘willow-the-whisp’ of illusion, such a carnival-barker moment, compared to a vocal note of clear love. They do not make you more perfect. Nor me nor anyone. It is not the planes of your face that radiate your beauty any more than it is the tuner on my computer that creates the ‘perfect pitch’ ((that always changing vibration of sound)) I hear from a chord on a guitar. Thank you for just being you.)

    (And thanks, Hanne, for your lovely, generous work! Your love shines through and I get to share in your joy!)

    (“Clear as mud” strikes again! I guess I mean: there are a lot of people that are distracting because they are beautiful. DA is beautiful because he is distracting…. in all the nicest ways. He distracts me from what-is-not and reminds me of what is and what can be.)

Love all the scenes with David showing various emotions and facial expressions. He really did a good job in his acting. He should pursue acting when he comes back.

    Hey, if you want translations in Tagalog, just let me know.

Volta is so funny and charming, little Alladin is a doll and such a good little actor.

    It would be a treat to see all the outtakes on Nandito Ako at the end of the DVD, just like the Jackie Chan movies. They are so funny! I wonder if there are many outtakes during love scenes between Josh & Anya. Sometimes I wonder if Anya was able to concentrate on her lines while Josh stares directly to her eyes. I’d melt if it was me! LOL!

Some of my family wants one too, because they have seen different episodes and want to see the whole thing..with subtitles. We can’t seem to get together at the same time for them to watch the whole thing. They keep asking me if it’s out yet…..just trying to be patient…all good things come to those who wait, they always say!:)

    Love hearing from David via Kari! Bebe, I couldn’t help but smile either. I smile at him everytime I get on here and he turns to me with that cute little grin when he heard his ringtone!

    Thanks for sharing your fan-girling over NA. It is the mini-serya that keeps on giving. I would really appreciate it if he would do a novella in Spanish. I know it would help me learn the language so much faster. I learned all the words to Contigo just by listening to his childhood version every day. Until his adult version came out and I put away childish things. 🙂

    Betsy! Loved the article…and I’m right there with you wanting…no, needing (haha) a Nandito Ako DVD! Due to my schedule, I rarely get to join everyone in chat, especially the Tuesday night Nandito Ako chats, so it feels like forever since I had a “Josh fix”. Memories of those early mornings, bleary-eyed, wishing Wil Time Big Time would just hurry and get over, so I could catch the latest installment of Nandito Ako and get to work on time; clues and cryptic tweets from My Dear Writer, wondering what the big surprise was, eager for the English translations, catching up on all the comments about the latest episodes…good times.

    After a hectic day yesterday, I got in my car…and that voice coming from my speakers just melted away all the stress and worry. How does he do that? And it really doesn’t matter what he is singing. He has this uncanny ability through his voice to make everything feel like it’s going to be all right and that life is good and the future looks bright. It reminded me of a quote from the book, “Anne of Green Gables”:

    “God’s in His heaven, and all is right with the world”

    Jan – although that girl has an amazing voice. 🙂 I cannot sing anything like that and would never be able to sing with him even if I did. 🙂

    Poco – I know, right? He WANTED to sing it! He should never be cut off when he feels like singing something, there ought to be a law enacted.
    Abrra – ♥

    Kaycee – thanks. 🙂

    cq – 🙂

    I am often amazed and confused about David’s piano-playing skills. He just bopped into the Adele song like it was easy-schmeazy …and then there are the Verona Complain/Let it Be moments. Hmmm. Love to see him let loose like that,though and would Soooo have loved to hear him sing that whole song. (Okay, is there a single song we don’t want to here David sing?)

    For those unfamiliar with the term “Fan Fiction”, according to Wikipedia:

    “Fan fiction is a term for fan labor regarding stories about characters or settings written by fans of the original work, rather than by the original creator.”

    Abrra found links to two fan fiction stories for Nandito Ako and they are so realistic!

    Love the vid of the young lady and David singing Adele. What an opportunity for her! Wasn’t she a hair stylist/makeup person on the set?

    That video of him masterfully playing the piano in #40 is so beautiful. He only sings a few words when the girl starts to lose her confidence and he looks around to see her stepping away. He took over just long enough for her to get it back then let her have the floor again. God love him forever. imisshimsomuch #DA2014

    Abrra,
    #41 gif, Mr. Confidence in real time. lol Real time or slow-mo, it’s still my fave. 🙂

    Sorry I’ve been MIA, having a rough week health wise. Will try to make chat tomorrow.

    49. Marlie,
    I agree with all you said. His piano playing amazes and confuses me too.

    Dja,
    I love him, too.
    I miss him, too.

    I have been listening to him talk lately. Banter between songs, bits before songs, laughing …. *sigh* I really miss his vlogs.

  56. aww MT sorry you have had a rough week:( {{{{hugs}}}}♥ Hope you feel better soon.

    I love that video.. he is such a good man, he just melts me into butter, there is SO MUCH about him to love, I can hardly take it. I hear you guys,miss him sooooo much too.
    Always amazes me when he just whips out a song . He thinks, finds the key/chord he wants.. and he just takes off. hearing him sing those few lines of Adeles song was heaven.
    Love him so much.

    Betsy! What a fabulous summary of Nandito Ako … ya highlighted all the best parts! Oh, and who can forget how dashing he looked as he ran to save Anna from the bad guy but then that oh no, how dare they let David get hit & then wanting to dash to his side to render first aid. Sure felt an empty pit gnawing in my stomach when that 5 week run ended, like something was desperately missing … think it was a long time before my body figured out I didn’t have to wake up extra early, lol! So many memorable expressions of David! Yep, definitely gotta have it on HD DVD so we can watch it in one swoop on the biggest screen possible! Who’s gonna bring the popcorn?

    Recently I gave my friend BEGIN. He knows about David only because I gave him the MoTab CD last year and CFTH CD the Christmas before that. Otherwise that is all he knows about David. So we had the following conversation. Me: Here’s a copy of David’s new CD. Him: Oh thanks. Soooo, now you’re on a first name basis, huh? Me: caught off guard (… but thinking what? Was that a hint of a smirk?) Him: Glancing at the cover. I’d sure like to have his hair.
    Me: Lololol! Afterward I was thinking, ha, that’s pretty intuitive for him to conclude that I must be a ‘fangirl’ … you’d almost think it was tattooed on my forehead. Isn’t it nice to know that we are not the only ones who notices his hair!

    Thanks to everyone for sharing all the video’s, pics, gif’s on tumblr, etc. While browsing, I stumbled upon the CASBAA acoustic set he did in Hong Kong. He is just so darn good. It’s easy to lose track of time, thinking just one more video then another and another. It sure makes you yearn for his return that much more. Missing him a bunch too. {group hug}

    Bebe; Loved your “Halo Halo Betsy”, haha! Have you ever had it before ’cause it’s delish. If I recall, didn’t David have that in the restaurant scene with Holly?

    Jans; Have a safe trip. Missed out on wishing you a wonderful b-day … hope it was fabulous!

    Kaycee; Yes, that voice transports you like a “Calgon take me away” moment!

    MT; Whipping you up some chicken soup … feel better soon ok! {hugs}

    Hi everyone,
    i am a bit under the weather. I had surgery on Tuesday, so not really up for commenting. Just two comments; #40 sigh. In just a few seconds I am reminded why he is my “guiding light”.

    comment 2; Yesterday my husband burned a CD of BEGIN. for himself for his car. I usually listen to BEGIN at the computer, using my iTunes. He said, that’s not good enough, found my CD and put it in our good stereo. He then sat and listened to the whole thing.
    He said that this type of song is what David was meant to be doing. Even while he is gone David acquires new fans. It is fun to watch the transformation, from “You really like David don’t you. I like Michael Buble”, to “David can sing anything, can’t he. 🙂
