David James Archuleta (born December 28, 1990) is an American singer-songwriter and actor. At ten years old, he won the children's division of the Utah Talent Competition leading to other television singing appearances.[6] When he was twelve years old, Archuleta became the Junior Vocal Champion on Star Search 2.[6] In 2007, at sixteen years old, he became one of the youngest contestants on the seventh season of American Idol.[7] In May 2008 he finished as the runner-up, receiving 44 percent of over 97 million votes.
The time is getting closer. I’m getting really anxious! Can’t wait to see what The Voice has put together for us…. I’m hoping for some new music from him…. and I’d settle for the Tarzan mash-up again! 🙂
So happy for all his sell out concerts and even Denver that is almost sold out! Wanted to go to the Denver one but couldn’t. So when the 2 in AZ came up unexpectedly, I’m going! Also, will be meeting Dayzee in Utah (if I ever get a good flight 🙂 ) and going to the concert in Richfield. I’m getting antsy about the flight, so will have to settle in the next few hours. Got my tickets, just need that air o plane!! 🙂
Thanks Dja! see ya in AZ! I think I’ll get to see Tawna again too! 🙂
Okay! Got my air finally! If it goes down any more I will rebook it. Was scared it would go back up so I went ahead and booked! So nerve wracking! David Archie here we come!!! 🙂
Bluesky, that would be great if periscope would happen!
Love to see an artist at work. Looks like David might be playing with those drums again.
Not going to Denver but can’t wait to see what shows up on that stage. Perhaps a peek at what I might find in Boise. I was looking at my Boise tickets today and printed right on the ticket “no cameras/recording/bags” What? No bags? Also, no outside food or drink, no smoking, no guns. No no no no no
Jan, glad you got your plane problems taken care of. Our planning days are almost all used up.
So excited to be seeing David and all those terrific David people. March madness indeed.
Yes, March Madness starts tomorrow night in Denver! Can’t wait to see what songs he sings, etc…..I think there will be some ninja cameras in there some where…sure hoping….
Starting to pack now that I have the air done…so excited! 🙂 I thought going to 2 concerts in Nov was awesome…there are no words for 3 this time!!!!!!!!!!! I told myself that I will travel as long as I can and I am! David, see what you make us do! 🙂
Bebe….so true about Shelley…she is so good with her camera! ☺ Dja thanks for posting Pocoelsy’s collage! Loving all the “liitle” David’s as well as “big” David! ☺ 💕

A new kind of baccalaureate service, featuring one of American Idol’s most beloved stars, David Archuleta, plus superstar interfaith speaker Valarie Kaur. Featuring inspirational messages of faith for all graduates, whether secular, spiritual or religious. Open to all: graduates, their families and the public. Free admission.
Thanks, Abs, for posting all the goodies that Shelley took! Thanks to Lisa for doing the Periscope. Didn’t get to see a lot because of the restrictions but did hear it all and he was awesome as usual! Enjoyed all the hand clapping and arm swaying right here in my kitchen listening to the best darn singer in the world!! 🙂 AZ is going to be so much fun!
I like the music to Seven Years, but don’t care for the words…jmo
Never mind, the picture didn’t come up and when you click the link it’s gone too! 😦 I have the worse luck doing this for some reason! 🙂
He said “what I’m trying to say is that I want to be loved for me”…that is what everyone loves…is him…just the way he is…voice and all! 🙂 How could you not??? He is so endearing!
I can’t believe I just sat through the whole concert on periscope staring at a blank screen! But it was worth it. Thank you so much ArchieTina for the broadcast from your purse!
I loved the 7 Years cover. Hope there is video of it. He sounded different, but in a fresh and good way. I hope we hear more of that sort of sound in his coming concerts and in his new album.
I like 7 Years. I think it’s one of the better pop songs out there now. Did David speed it up a little? I think he dropped a line near the top.
Here is the MP3 audio from Tina’s Periscope of Denver concert. It’s a bit scratchy. I re-did it 3x but I think it will never be a clean as the original broadcast.
Once I was 7 years old, my mama told me,
Go make yourself some friends or you’ll be lonely,
Once I was 7 years old
It was a big, big world but we thought we were bigger
Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker
By 11 smoking herb, and drinking burning liquor
Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure
Once I was 11 years old, my daddy told me,
Go get yourself a wife or you’ll be lonely
Once I was 11 years old
I always had that dream, like my daddy before me
So I started writing songs, I started writing stories
Something about that glory, just always seemed to bore me
‘cus only those I really love will ever really know me
Once I was 20 years old, my story got told
Before the morning sun, when life was lonely
Once I was 20 years old
I only see my goals, I don’t believe in failure,
‘cus I know the smallest voices, they can make it major,
I got my boys with me, at least those in favour
And if we don’t meet before I leave, I hope I’ll see you later
Once I was 20 years old, my story got told
I was writing about everything I saw before me
Once I was 20 years old
Soon we’ll be 30 years old, our songs have been sold
We’ve traveled around the world and we’re still roaming
Soon we’ll be 30 years old
I’m still learning about life
My woman brought children for me
So I can sing them all my songs
And I can tell them stories
Most of my boys are with me
Some are still out seeking glory
And some I had to leave behind
My brother, I’m still sorry
Soon I’ll be 60 years old
My daddy got 61
Remember life and then your life becomes a better one
I made a man so happy when I wrote a letter once
I hope my children come and visit once or twice a month.
Soon I’ll be 60 years old
Will I think the world is cold,
or will I have a lot of children who can warm me
Soon I’ll be 60 years old,
Soon I’ll be 60 years old
Will I think the world is cold,
or will I have a lot of children who can warm me
Soon I’ll be 60 years old
Once I was 7 years old, my mama told me
Go make yourself some friends or you’ll be lonely
Once I was 7 years old,
Lot’s of good stuff from last night! Thanks Abrra for putting in overtime to get them to us! 🙂 I was really kind of hoping that he would have a new show going for this year.
Man, he’ll be in Slovenia on May 13 and CA on May 20!! I guess that’s why he can’t get a new show put together or the album released. 🙂 It’s kind of hard to do when you’re on the road so much.
7 Years is my favourite of this set. That song is played on the radio often. I like it a lot and always pay attention when it’s aired. Of course David has made it even better!
Lots of video to watch. Thanks for posting, Abrra.
Hey all!
Dja I survived!
haha got in after midnite last night, but left my ♥ in Denver. It was awesome,and wonderful,as Shelley’s videos show, and so happy everyone got to watch the show with us!! So much fun we had♥♥♥!!! and to come home to this beautiful coverage and relive it all again .Love you guys!
Can’t wait for more from Boise tonite!
I love the love and general fantasticalness from last night. ^_^ BIG SMILE!!
I saw this today. I was really touched by the feeling expressed in this music. Most of us struggle from time to time with our “image” or we wonder about the value of our “gift”. I am so glad that DA shows and shares his own path to over coming.
Be inspired: Believe, dear friends, believe in yourself! ❤
Bluesky
I enjoyed Gaelynn’s music so much that I went to watch another half dozen more videos. Her voice has a distinctive sound that calms the soul. The violin matches her style perfectly.Thank you for posting.
I have to reiterate my thoughts on 7 Years. I’m like Dja and never heard the song before let lone the singer. When I listened to it with the unknown singer…ugh. Loved David singing it but still didn’t care for it. I said I liked the music but not the words and have changed to liking the words and the music is ok. I think I liked the music in the original but not the singer. For some reason, I have a lot of mixed thoughts on the song. I have just “listened” to it and have watched David sing it and still have no emotional attachment to it for some reason. I know the words are David all over and can see why he likes it, but it still has to grow on me I guess. Back in the old days when I when I was a big Elvis fan I would buy his newest album out and sit and listen to it with ear phones 2 and 3 times. This one album I bought I just did not like it. It was different than what he usually put out. I listened to it over and over and it became my favorite album of all! It was called “From Elvis Presley Boulevard, Memphis Tennessee”. Songs like “Danny Boy”, “Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain”, “The Last Farewell”, etc. I loved the songs but there wasn’t any connection there for me until it grew on me. And boy, did it! 🙂 That’s what “7 Years” might do. jmopo
Getting anxious for the next few weeks coming up! #Can’t believe 3 concerts! #oh boy!
Jan, I feel where you’re at on 7 Years. I haven’t attached to the song either. Although, I much prefer David’s rendition over the original singer. I think it probably has a lot to do with how I can tell that David is relating to the lyrics so strongly… plus the Voice is pretty awesome. I wasn’t really an Elvis fan until about 10 years ago. I liked his music a lot, and thought he was pretty easy on the eyes (in his younger days especially), but I just couldn’t get into it very deeply. But then, at some point during my husband’s serious illness and long hospitalization I latched onto, and fell in love with his music. I spent a serious amount of dollars on CD’s during that time. 😉 Maybe that’s where I’m at with this new cover that David is doing. Maybe it will grow on me.
Yes, I’m at the point where I need to get my Arizona excursion planned. We’ve got to decide if it will be a straight down and back trip, or if we plan to do some sightseeing along the way. Decisions! I do know what’s at the end of the trip going down, regardless as to what happens in the middle, and that is a pretty exciting destination!
A few days ago I got an Email from Tuacahn giving me an opportunity to buy David tickets for Novermber 2016. I called them immediately and ordered me up a bunch of tickets. Later I was looking at the bill and thinking “Am I crazy? All those $ for concert tickets?” Friday night David strolled out on the Boise stage and I thought ” I gotta get me some more tickets.” That’s my life now.
When Boise tickets came on sale I pulled up the venue and every seat was available except for 2 front and center. I figured I must know those people. Got two adjoining tickets and was curious to see who would be sitting in those first sold 2 seats. Their pics are above at #58 with the band (Jane Rayburn), And yes, they were not strangers to me. They told me they had missed the Boise dinner because they got lost. Getting lost has always been a problem for me in Boise, don’t know why.
At the dinner, Taterzen’s granddaughter was sitting across from me. She is in the choir pic at #50. standing on David’s left. We all asked how she got that awesome spot. She told us David was milling around and said “where shall I stand?” She quickly said Here! Here! and it worked. Taterzen was an excellent hostess and it was great fun for everyone who could make it. We had a crowd of about 35, Shawna, Claudia(CB), Patty, all the usual suspects.
Got settled at the concert, front row center. Put my elbows on the edge of the stage and my chin in my hands. Looking at the neck. First time that I noticed when David extends his finger(s) they turn backward at the tips Fascinating to watch, as those hands are always dancing. The next thing I knew he was thanking us for coming and telling us goodbye. What? He has a lot of nerve giving us a 20 minute concert. But when I looked at my watch it was 10:30. Time is weird in Boise.
My granddaughter drove and accompanied me everywhere. Said David gets better every time. The trip was perfect. The dinner was perfect. The fans were so friendly and perfect. The concert was perfect. And David was over-the-top perfect. Time to get myself to the airport and see if Jan is there yet for the next hunk (I mean chunk) of perfection.
Love your stories, Dayzee! And your sense of humor…you’re the best! 🙂 Tuachan again…I told you that I need to move in with you! lol 🙂 Doubt if I will make it this time.
Glad your “miracle” seats turned out good…why wouldn’t they among David fans! Yes, time is weird in any city where David is singing…just flies by! 🙂
Didn’t take much to “hook” your granddaughter….never takes much of David to get hooked!…..glad she can go with you. David always makes everything “perfect”….. 🙂 Please don’t go to the airport yet…I’m not even packed yet! 🙂 #bettergetbusy #8moredays
I have fallen into the 7 Year vortex and I can’t get out!!!!! Upon hearing David sing it I became hooked. Listening closely to the lyrics next and his obvious connection to them hit me like a ton a bricks. I’ve shared it with anyone who I can get to sit still young and old and everything in between, same reaction by all “WOW”.
Dayzee, what fun! I’d love to see all those great people you mentioned and you of course! It looks like several of us will be in Arizona in 11 days!!!! Something sure does happen with the time during David’s concerts. It takes forever for them to arrive but it’s over in a blink of an eye 🙂
Oh St. George I have to decide fast before the tickets are gone!
Tawna, It looks like a beautiful place. Hope we get video. Paul Cardell was learning to use periscope and I kinda hinted a periscope for his and David’s performance would be nice lol.
I really liked the way David handled the marriage proposal Abrra posted at #58. He gave us a grin and finished with a “thank you”. It was a perfect response. I think he finally realizes that his audience loves him in a good way and it is not a bad thing.
Mailman brought me Tuacahn tickets. I had only bought for Thursday and Friday, thinking I did not need 3 nights in a row. When I got back from Boise I came to my senses and requested Saturday night seats. Still waiting for those.
Leaving Wednesday morning for Richfield. Getting giddy. Again.
Tawna, even with all the opportunities for concerts here I too am aching for Slovenia. It looks sooo beautiful.
#90… great collage! I’m really liking the face I’ve never before seen…. the lower left corner! 🙂 🙂 That holds soooo many different ways of being interpreted!! ♥♥
I agree, Dayzee. Also, another girl yelled out “get to know me”! lol 🙂 He is loved in a good way, for sure!
You must have had a mental lapse to think in that split second that you didn’t need 3 nights in a row!!! Glad you came to your senses, we don’t want to let the guy down! 🙂
Almost packed. If I pack too early, I keep putting more and more in or going through and changing which takes up double time. Leaving with Dayzee Wednesday morning for Richfield! 🙂 #gettincloser
Agree, Tawna! It’s like he’s thinking “what??? or “huh???”! 🙂

Hi peeps!!
I love the love and general fantasticalness from last night. ^_^ BIG SMILE!!
I saw this today. I was really touched by the feeling expressed in this music. Most of us struggle from time to time with our “image” or we wonder about the value of our “gift”. I am so glad that DA shows and shares his own path to over coming.
Be inspired: Believe, dear friends, believe in yourself! ❤

I enjoyed Gaelynn’s music so much that I went to watch another half dozen more videos. Her voice has a distinctive sound that calms the soul. The violin matches her style perfectly.Thank you for posting.

I love how he performs this song.

Abrra, it is very evident that David completely relates to ‘7 Years’. He is one with the lyrics and music. ♥♥

Fun puzzle, Abs! And thanks Shadowbenny.
I have to reiterate my thoughts on 7 Years. I’m like Dja and never heard the song before let lone the singer. When I listened to it with the unknown singer…ugh. Loved David singing it but still didn’t care for it. I said I liked the music but not the words and have changed to liking the words and the music is ok. I think I liked the music in the original but not the singer. For some reason, I have a lot of mixed thoughts on the song. I have just “listened” to it and have watched David sing it and still have no emotional attachment to it for some reason. I know the words are David all over and can see why he likes it, but it still has to grow on me I guess. Back in the old days when I when I was a big Elvis fan I would buy his newest album out and sit and listen to it with ear phones 2 and 3 times. This one album I bought I just did not like it. It was different than what he usually put out. I listened to it over and over and it became my favorite album of all! It was called “From Elvis Presley Boulevard, Memphis Tennessee”. Songs like “Danny Boy”, “Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain”, “The Last Farewell”, etc. I loved the songs but there wasn’t any connection there for me until it grew on me. And boy, did it! 🙂 That’s what “7 Years” might do. jmopo
Getting anxious for the next few weeks coming up! #Can’t believe 3 concerts! #oh boy!

A fun puzzle, Abrra. Thank you!
Jan, I feel where you’re at on 7 Years. I haven’t attached to the song either. Although, I much prefer David’s rendition over the original singer. I think it probably has a lot to do with how I can tell that David is relating to the lyrics so strongly… plus the Voice is pretty awesome. I wasn’t really an Elvis fan until about 10 years ago. I liked his music a lot, and thought he was pretty easy on the eyes (in his younger days especially), but I just couldn’t get into it very deeply. But then, at some point during my husband’s serious illness and long hospitalization I latched onto, and fell in love with his music. I spent a serious amount of dollars on CD’s during that time. 😉 Maybe that’s where I’m at with this new cover that David is doing. Maybe it will grow on me.
Yes, I’m at the point where I need to get my Arizona excursion planned. We’ve got to decide if it will be a straight down and back trip, or if we plan to do some sightseeing along the way. Decisions! I do know what’s at the end of the trip going down, regardless as to what happens in the middle, and that is a pretty exciting destination!

A few days ago I got an Email from Tuacahn giving me an opportunity to buy David tickets for Novermber 2016. I called them immediately and ordered me up a bunch of tickets. Later I was looking at the bill and thinking “Am I crazy? All those $ for concert tickets?” Friday night David strolled out on the Boise stage and I thought ” I gotta get me some more tickets.” That’s my life now.
When Boise tickets came on sale I pulled up the venue and every seat was available except for 2 front and center. I figured I must know those people. Got two adjoining tickets and was curious to see who would be sitting in those first sold 2 seats. Their pics are above at #58 with the band (Jane Rayburn), And yes, they were not strangers to me. They told me they had missed the Boise dinner because they got lost. Getting lost has always been a problem for me in Boise, don’t know why.
At the dinner, Taterzen’s granddaughter was sitting across from me. She is in the choir pic at #50. standing on David’s left. We all asked how she got that awesome spot. She told us David was milling around and said “where shall I stand?” She quickly said Here! Here! and it worked. Taterzen was an excellent hostess and it was great fun for everyone who could make it. We had a crowd of about 35, Shawna, Claudia(CB), Patty, all the usual suspects.
Got settled at the concert, front row center. Put my elbows on the edge of the stage and my chin in my hands. Looking at the neck. First time that I noticed when David extends his finger(s) they turn backward at the tips Fascinating to watch, as those hands are always dancing. The next thing I knew he was thanking us for coming and telling us goodbye. What? He has a lot of nerve giving us a 20 minute concert. But when I looked at my watch it was 10:30. Time is weird in Boise.
My granddaughter drove and accompanied me everywhere. Said David gets better every time. The trip was perfect. The dinner was perfect. The fans were so friendly and perfect. The concert was perfect. And David was over-the-top perfect. Time to get myself to the airport and see if Jan is there yet for the next hunk (I mean chunk) of perfection.

Love your stories, Dayzee! And your sense of humor…you’re the best! 🙂 Tuachan again…I told you that I need to move in with you! lol 🙂 Doubt if I will make it this time.
Glad your “miracle” seats turned out good…why wouldn’t they among David fans! Yes, time is weird in any city where David is singing…just flies by! 🙂
Didn’t take much to “hook” your granddaughter….never takes much of David to get hooked!…..glad she can go with you. David always makes everything “perfect”….. 🙂 Please don’t go to the airport yet…I’m not even packed yet! 🙂 #bettergetbusy #8moredays

I have fallen into the 7 Year vortex and I can’t get out!!!!! Upon hearing David sing it I became hooked. Listening closely to the lyrics next and his obvious connection to them hit me like a ton a bricks. I’ve shared it with anyone who I can get to sit still young and old and everything in between, same reaction by all “WOW”.
Dayzee, what fun! I’d love to see all those great people you mentioned and you of course! It looks like several of us will be in Arizona in 11 days!!!! Something sure does happen with the time during David’s concerts. It takes forever for them to arrive but it’s over in a blink of an eye 🙂
Oh St. George I have to decide fast before the tickets are gone!

I really liked the way David handled the marriage proposal Abrra posted at #58. He gave us a grin and finished with a “thank you”. It was a perfect response. I think he finally realizes that his audience loves him in a good way and it is not a bad thing.
Mailman brought me Tuacahn tickets. I had only bought for Thursday and Friday, thinking I did not need 3 nights in a row. When I got back from Boise I came to my senses and requested Saturday night seats. Still waiting for those.
Leaving Wednesday morning for Richfield. Getting giddy. Again.
Tawna, even with all the opportunities for concerts here I too am aching for Slovenia. It looks sooo beautiful.
