American Idol - David Archuleta - Another Day In Paradise

[TheKelly031]

after this season ended, i never watched A.I again, because it wasnt as awesome!

[iadorearchie]

David Archuleta is no teen idol - he is a mature thoughtful young man with social consciousness and chooses songs that reflect his views. How profound is that! A number of David's choices on idol were too sophisticated for the judges. This is a great song with a great message.

[loveAARforever]

@iadorearchie I completely agree with you. His focus is beyond just performing or creating songs that are easy to listen to or for making him (even more) famous. He believes in singing meaningful and thoughtful songs and his choices show just how much of a real artist he is.

[iadorearchie]

David Archuleta is sooo amazingly incredible! There is always a great feeling that come across his audience in his singing. Is that magical or divine? David's angelic voice makes his audience love whatever song he sings because it's heartfelt penetrating the soul of everyonewho listens. Isn't that divine?

[TheMusicgirlXX]

"your thirsty and you have to pee" "....hahah...yeah...they really didn't want to know that"

David is AMAZING!!! i just got to see him in concert!!

[11jansza]

he was only 17? are you kidding me????

[Anaidvideo]

@11jansza wow, 3 years has gone by so fast. Yea, he was 17 then.

[11jansza]

@Anaidvideo i know ay. talented kid :O

[efishe01]

I always thought he should have sung 'The Living Years' on this night..

[DSWrath]

I would rather see James Blunt do a cover of this.

[rlinfinity]

He's padding the part...

[iadorearchie]

this is the best season of american idol: with the best performer/singer/artist - David Archuleta. He is so amazingly good and so adorable.

[marioman756]

how the fuck did he not win?

[kyo2590]

This season has ended the golden age of American Idol, now it's all turned to mush.

[AKVR19]

I love when he says Contigo En La Distancia.

[AnnaRosli]

Haha, any song that involves intimacy is a depressing song for Simon...

[xxhailybabexx]

Simon was right, he made it to the top 2, too bad he didnt win

[89chitra]

my ears are going to blast!!

man, he has such amazing voice. i soooooo in love with his voice.

[1sjirk1]

BAD

[TeamJake1326]

Ohmygoodness this is my second favorite performance of his EVER... (next to Imagine)

David is amazing <3

[ressamp]

wooow i clicked on this looking for david choi

i was greatly dissapointed

[happy2we]

@ressamp

then you must not know how to read. AI...Archuleta...? if you didn't see that in the header than there must be something wrong with you.

[ressamp]

@happy2we no, david choi has a video about how american idol rejected him and at the sidebar it said "American Idol - David..." so ya

[loomonda18]

Everyone PLEASE VOTE for DAVID ARCHULETA in this years 2010 Teen Choice Awards! He is nominated for American Idol Alum & Fanatic Fans! It is tough competition this year, so PLEASE VOTE EVERYDAY & TELL OTHERS TOO!! Let's do it for David! EVERY VOTE COUNTS! <3

[love2talk15]

he butchered this song

[perziantoker4lyf]

@love2talk15 agree

[StrawhatxLuffy]

Kelly Clarkson, David Archuleta, Jordin Sparks, Kris Allen, Adam Lambert...

true wonders of American Idol.

[baf0931]

I bought David's new book, "Chords of Strength" and I enjoy reading about his journey, the lessons that he learned on the way to ai, tours, recordings, how he built the strength to move forward in spite of his shyness, vocal paralysis.

I didn't know that David was sick this week and even saw a doctor about his vocal paralysis, and how he rested his voice so he can go on the show. I still love him singing this song. I wanted to hear more.

[metallifan11]

Ari Koivunen does it better :D

[baf0931]

What happened to this video. YT doesn't complete the video to the end so can't replay.

104,945v 6/04/10

[FearLessDreamBig]

david is so talented. cuutie.(:

[rosaliehalevampire]

man this was the peak of idol. miss this season A LOT <33

[JoeJonas4everr]

I am still touched when i hear it. :) <3

[MightySJSpartan]

I wish he would do the complete version of this song solely on the piano. I'm pretty sure that the remake would help him and Phil Collins out. I'd buy/ listen.

[amnjordan23]

whats wrong with him being gay...?

[janetkk89]

@amnjordan23 there wouldn't be anything wrong if he was but I don't think he is

[TheUndertakerfan2002]

When this was on Idol I replayed that song so much that I got tired of it after awhile

Great song

[1goodworld]

Respect.

[choii25]

i like him but theres something when he talk .. :)) seems like his ran out of breath lol..

[gailduran]

This seasons' young men --are not even close to David--what a voice!!

[03allex]

pf...

he's amazing..and have a wonderfull voice!!

XD

[loomonda18]

David, I missed seeing you on idol!!!!!!! <3333 :)

You're amazing! :)

[Colmcilla]

I think the judges nitpicked him because they knew he was extraordinary. He sang everything perfectly. This song was great... I really loved it.

[Vickii62493]

@soulcalibur1829 No.

[jppuertorico85]

who cares

[xXxkRiStaYxXx]

NOOOO

just a little awkward.

[94volleyballplayer]

No he is not gay, and everyone should stop saying he is.

[CrisVangel]

He rocks this song... no contest..!  LOVE IT!

[mianngalore]

I love how he says Contigo en la Distancia (0:35 - 0:36 mark) ♥

[1966100x]

OMG!!!1! a new singing contest is here on YOuTube and its called KARAOKE SHOWDOWN!! cant wait!! ^^

[SandyL34]

he sang "Contigo En La Distancia" at the ALMAs, doesnt he? That was AMAZING btw

[LTDJA]

why don't they show David Archuleta singing Dolly Parton's Smokey Mountain Memories with intro by Dolly and judges comments at the end ? that one has 916,000 views and very popular videos, loved by many people. Very popular and varieties of D.A. are not shown here. Go to "david archuleta" site listing for more varieties.

[LTDJA]

David sang recently Sept. 18 at ALMA Awards show on ABC TV channel, Spanish love song Contigo En La Distancia. awesome, stunning.

David Archuleta's first Christmas album is coming to the store Oct. 13. It'll be amazing. Great gifts for teens and adults. You can pre-order thru Amazon (dot) com. You can hear sample thru Amazon.

[BLACKxSUNRISE]

He's cute x]

I think phil collins did it better, but david is also great. First I listened to his song 'crush' and I love that song. And I had no idea that he from American Idol was Oo.

That's funny ;p

[jazziebelle08]

This is my favorite song from him out of ALL his songs I got mad at the jusges for this I love it

[iamthebstgirly]

It's a great version but not close to Phil Collins' version, but David should have gotten more praise from the judges for this.

[LTDJA]

David Archuleta is putting together his very first Christmas album titled "CHRISTMAS FROM THE HEART" will be released Oct. 13. You can pre-order from Amazon (dot) com. I was wondering where to pre-order. David is awesome with Christmas songs. It'll be great for gifts, too.

[samrlim]

I listento Phil Collins version no offense David Archuleta has a much better version.

It soothes his voice so well - I hope he has the complete version on this that I can down load.

[samrlim]

WoW great job !

No wonder why he is doing great right now . This kid can really sing.

[pepinjonaselje]

He ruined the song.

[xxcsrxx]

he completly lost the feeling of the song being a sad song and turn it into just showing his voice

[michaelblood1]

jealous^^

[lebambole]

you are incredible good. thanks from ITALY!!

[ffsftwwtf]

no offence 2 you David Archuleta  lovers but personally I really didnt like when he sang it

[comissairevanloc]

very bad singer

[sparklovecool]

Are you joking? David is one of the best singer.

[o0angel890o]

wow superrrrrrrr!!!

[cfshadowcf]

Im pretty sure there is a version of "Another day to paradise" with a female voice... Does someone knows her name? Im after that version :)

[vinniefaas]

YEah its from Brandy Together With Ray J

[SandiSolo]

[iluf2351]

I liked it. I wanted to hear more.

there were some great feeling that came across.

It was too short for me, but I loved it.

[LTDJA]

I love it that he chose this song,

it shows his caring, kind, thoughtful soul.

It was a short 1 1/2 minute version and

I wanted the song to go longer.

[Antroniac]

love rbfs cover on this song, completely different, still awesome.

[iluf2351]

Great voice.

You and me and Paradise.

[gamagu4ever]

Damn!!! Dats a sexy body!

[NewSFC]

David is too young to sing this type of song since he did not even experience it before..Still Phil Colins sing this song WAY BETTER since is his song...~ but david nice singing.. still plz dun change the tone of this song!

[caser1210]

My brother showed me a difference of how to access YouTube sites. You get a better choice by typing with quotes: "David Archuleta" Both words have to be in the video in that order. If you type just the name, you can get David cook, David somebody, David anybody in that site. YouTube & AI still control all the sites so many David Archuleta's popular video are still GONE. You can see some funny, hilarious, unexpected new videos in "David Archuleta" site. New close up of David is amazing.

[caser1210]

I agree with you, peaceouthomes14.

I love the way he sings with great emotions.

lloooooooove David Archuleta ! ! ! ! !

[peaceouthomes14]

i think he did better than wat the judges said!

he is amazing!!!!

loooooove him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

keep singing david

[StraysSylveri]

Very nice version. Very talented guy.

[noowii]

Amazing

[zizzzentyu]

inredible...

[rosemytran]

Notice how Simon said David would probably be in the final 2...wow, can that man call it or what?! Haha, love David Archuleta!

[findus96]

i don't like his version of this song...

[doubleDdog09]

dude i wish archuleta could be on the show AGAIN hes so amazing! this year's talent sucks except for von smith but hes not getting enough votes so far according to dialidol plus i cant vote anymore since we no longer have a home phone.

[LTDJA]

I noticed they do show LOW VIEW COUNTS of David Archuleta around the American Idol Site. This video they like to show a lot.

I remembered many HIGHER view count of DAVID ARCUMELATA's videos. They have disappeared.

Keep on singing, David.

They can't squash the fans' passion and loyalty for DAVID ARCHULETA.

[xwingclass]

how he lost is beyond me still even after what, a year. he is the bench mark for me when it comes to AI

[caser1210]

There are HIGHER view count of David's Paradise, but AI SITE handlers choose to put this video a lot, of course, to make him look less appealing.

More of a threat to Cook's image is to put David A. singing Dolly's SMOKEY MOUNTAIN MEMORIES..

Fans of David Archuleta knows that David A. has awesome voice.

His aura, persona and his love of singing comes through every time. Awesome.

Fans adore and love DAVID ARCHULETA.

[gzrsux]

1:25 Orgasm LOL.

[ifly1988]

Love it lol!

[culicns]

Paradiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiise . . .

[Archuholic]

Beautiful..!!

[redflare08]

No sorry, but he killed this song and can't compare to Phil Collins. When he doesn't hold out the longated notes it kills it

[noodlex3pie]

this is absolutely beautifully amazinggg

his voice is flawless

[gbgirl123]

OMG!! Don't get me rong, i love love love love david but u can really tell in this song that he needs to stagger his breathing. you can hear him going "aaah ahahahah" but still, hes truly AMAZING AND SHULD HAVE WON!!

[Ebiley14]

WoW

[sasukeu07]

we had this song in english its great

[Segacamp]

omg thanks for posting this i enjoy Phil Collins

[Talbutti]

I thought he should of won!

[theranda2008]

He´s so great!!!

[hannahmagoo]

nooooo........ he just turned 18..........

[basballcarn]

yea but when this was made he had just turned 17

[darkriver46]

now i see y he is overrated he is GOOD and really smooth singing :)

[clalalarisse]

he just turned 17 here and he's so mature when it comes to singing, it's wonderful and amazing!

[lillexlina]

This is one of my favorite performances from Archie.

[xXPiNkYDottyXx]

I love the the way he sings the word paradise

soo beautiful!

[CBLover9613]

once he sang this i knew he was goig to go REALLY far. he should of won!!!

my favorite song from him! i love him.. best he ever did. the first time it came on tv, it was recorded and i listend/watched it like 5 times... so GOOD!

[HollicrombieChick352]

[beeautifulxdisaster]

Ahaha me too! :D

[HollicrombieChick352]

[LDSsweetiepie]

He is a great singer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! he has a real talent Good job David Archuleta

[beeautifulxdisaster]

Get a life.

[ThePresidentJonas]

i know this song by heart!!

[musicdude2009]

Simon's an idiot. Imagine is not a sad song it's just a slow song.

[Dee21Fee15]

He's an amazing singer (: & :)

[jtm101583]

If I could choose the theme for "Idol", it would be a tribute to Phil Collins (& Genesis). Are you reading this, Ryan Seacrest? Something to think about!

[OMgeezie]

omgsh you can hear him lick his lips at 1:05. i watched that about 50 times now.

[joeraysp]

lol you're funny

[cookmydinner]

your gross..

[OMgeezie]

ahahaha im guessing that came from a non-archie? i wasn't trying to be gross hahaha

[Aeriant]

What was it "Contigala de Sanchez"??? What does that mean? o.O

[OMgeezie]

and do you mean contigo en la distancia??

[Aeriant]

Yes!!! but i figured it out already xD

[royalflush7494]

What does it mean?

[Aeriant]

With you in the distance

[StealingBroadway]

1:12 <33

[rmanciaz]

I don't know why you think he was manipulating us.. But maybe I like to believe the best about him because I believe in him and the messages he does wants to put out there. Sorry, but I really believe in what he is trying to do and that is to bring attention to these things that he really cares about. And the fact that he has a stunning voice gives me the most exquisite feeling.

[loomonda18]

DAvid I love all your songs that you sing, and again you did an amazing job! I wish that I could have voted for you!:) You're really great david! Have fun on tour!:)

[shecklergirl92]

i heard he had strep throat during this and we can work it out.

[jfodero08]

i agree with everyone else on here stating that this was my favorite performance out of him. i honestly think it to be better than imagine. i dont think it was the message in the song that won him the votes i think his voice in this song is what got him the votes

[lightacandle5]

This is one of my all-time favorite David performances.He sang with such purity and conviction about a subject that is very close to my heart. What a humble,caring spirit David has! When he performs, he transcends the music and the lyrics and takes us to a place that is pure vocal magic. He is the only singer I know of who can do that, the only singer who so closely connects to the meaning and spirit behind a song that we can actually become a part of it.David always conveys that kind of beauty!

[theloverofmovies91]

i really loved this performance! i actually liked it more than imagine. i dunno, i just found this one very moving.

[archuleta1357]

omg i get to see him tomorrow!!!

[Angelsbaby42]

Ryan embarrassed poor David.

[Zetapie]

I absolutely see something negative about it. It's manipulative. It's saying, "There are people genuinely suffering out there while you live a comfortable life. But if you vote for me, you'll be showing support of them. Let that ease your guilt." David is smart (and a great singer, don't getme wrong). But I think he knew what he was doing.

[retorth]

You think too much lol He sings is damn well I gotta agree though. :)

[mulattobabi10789]

Yea i understand where you're coming from but he wants to convey messages through his singing and he's a genine kid who does care about the homeless ppl. But i do agree that he prolly knew him singing that song would bring him more votes. However his "tears" and modesty is real, he's just that type of person. He lost his confidence after his vocal paralysis so it's gotta b hard coming in the most well known music talent show n have every1 gush over your voice when u didnt think it was that good

[Zetapie]

2:53... Randy, "prowness" is not a word. And, *sigh* I WANT to like this kid. I love his voice but this whole, "Shed a tear for the plight of the homeless, now vote for me on your cell phones" thing seems so contrived. But, hey, it sells. Now give me your thumbs down because how DARE I say anything negative about David Archuleta.

[baochau53]

what are you talking about? Archie fans are not like that, and the "Shed a tear for the plight of the homeless, now vote for me on your cell phones" is not a big deal, i dont see anything negative about it ??

[sammyismimi]

omg i love hiz voice u should search for im bringing sexy back david archuleta omg one of the best videos eva plus i love it when he sings this song it givs me chills :) <333333 @--[-[-----

[kitkat0011n]

Hes awesome! luv his performances

[archuleta1357]

He is so sexy when he speaks spanishh <3

[MileyMandyandME]

omda! i was just about 2 comment the same thing! i watched the spanish thing over and over and over and over and, well u no wat imean, haha

[libradogerman]

vote,vote, david archuleta for teen choice awards!

[archuleta1357]

He is sexy when he speaks spanish :)
