  • Wow D's voice is sooo SWEET!!

  • Parabéns pela voz, você canta muito. Pena que ainda não conseguiu a fama no País que eu moro (Brasil). Mais posso ter certeza que um dia ás pessoas daqui irão lotar um show seu, realizado em nosso país. You´re a very good singer.

  • horrible selection for a finals song................ bad decision

  • He really should have won.

  • i luv him even more. this is my fav song of elvis n he didn't beat my heart but he crushed my heart with this song!

  • he made me cry!

  • thumbs up!!!!!!!!

  • I am still surprised he didn't win! This is my favorite Elvis song and David, you nailed it.

    Simon said it all!!

  • Crush is mentioned so many times in this sequence (if you viewed the whole show) and then his first smash single is called Crush, so cool.

  • This remains the single greatest performance in the 10 year history of American Idol

  • Goosebumps. This gave me goosebumps (:

  • Wish I could vote for him all over again and over and over and over and over and over.....OMG, he just Crush everyone that season with that amazing voice. He should have won. Noone touched his vocals and still haven't. Too bad Jive won't promote and back one of their own singers. They won't even get him on the radio. I can't understand what the problem is. He could be a singing sensation...

  • 9 PEOPLE DON'T HAVE A CLUE ABOUT MUSIC!

  • I`m learning that song on guitar!

  • I took music lessons for years and my teacher said one sentence to me, without even playing music, that summed it all up.

    "Music is not music, it is a feeling, and if music isn't played with feeling, it isn't music."

    You can't judge or break this preformance down in any way without feeling guilty, because the magic of what is happening here is that he played this song 100% through feeling this song. He made this song his own, and you can feel that.

  • @skeetv123 THANK YOU. You've said it perfectly. And you know that when you sing with feeling it FEELS SO GOOD. This boy has a pure heart.

  • Favorite song, from my favorite Classic Rock singer, NOW MY FAVORITE NOW SINGER!!!!!!! LOVE YOU DAVID!♥

  • how can 17 yrs old delivered that song with so much feeling and have like that incredible voice?... his version was better than the original..

  • Simply outstanding!

  • @Boobytrap85 he really is exceptionally talented.

  • One of his best renditions..........clear, honest, faithful to the orininal....

    A true highlight of his vocals. This is a singing competition!

    Go David!

  • Still gives me chills!!!!

  • I agree, he just had it so perfectly!!!

  • its really amazing for a 17 years old young man to be able to sing this song w/ so much feelings..really David Archuleta is one of God's perfect creation...

  • @marilou1130 well, let's not say perfect.

    There are no perfect creations.

    He said in his audition that one of his vocal chords was paralyzed.

    THIS is God's imperfect yet wonderful creation. :)

  • So they switched again, brought this lower 57,000 views back and removed and put 353,000 views video some where else. They aren't happy with David's popularity so moving and messing wt videos is their way to self delude themselves that David has LOW view count and can not be popular by bringing back Low ones and hiding High ones. Fox /AI prod doing that thru YT and still doing so one year + later, is unfair and pathetic. David continues to be popular and successful inspite of their obstacles.

  • @iluf2351 interesting, huh. The same thing happened with his AI Imagine appearance this year.

  • I heard David singing this song before in another video. This is the video that has judges' comments! I remember Simon mentioning, "you crushed the competition." And later when David came out with Crush song. Wow, how things seem to jell and fit from AI show to album song titled Crush.

  • He did, I think he's better then Cook...

  • amazing young man and amazing voice!

  • One of the Best Rendition for Love Me Tender - for a 17 years old. Wow !

  • wow that was beautiful.

  • Ho i got that you don't like David Archuleta

    and you don't like gays good for you.

    but you know what you are a stupid racest.

  • i like when his voice cracks at the end it makes it seem like he wanted it to do that

  • my respect to elvis but in my generation, never met him & never heard of him singing. i hope he doesnt mind if this song will be associated to david (in this generation). david made the song so lovely, touching & sweet.

  • Yes but Elvis made a song forever.

  • Yes Elvis made a song forever -

    But David Archuleta resuscitated the song back to life and delivered it beautifully.

  • ARCHIE SHOULD'VE WON!!! How can you NOT like him?!

  • Those Haters are David Cook Fans - I can guarantee you 100% - Just ignore them they just lack self-esteem.

  • what is it that you feel so low about your self that you have to put down some one else? were you made fun of as a child?

  • david a shoud

  • this american idol "rock n roll day" was a total shit!!! 1 reggae song, 1 pop song, 1 hardcore root funk song and all the other were ballads, where the fuck is the rock n roll??? dont get me wrong but those styles are always being used, why even on its nigth, the proper rock wasnt used!!! if you wanted to showcase vocals you still could have sing led zeppelin, iron maiden or queen!!!!!!!!!

  • i like him to win...

  • omg its king of planet of the apes!

  • yeah..i hope he wins too...i really do...but i have a feeling they'll give it to the older guy....this guy is good and definately the winner...

  • pmg he is so good!! he puts thought into his singing

  • rustydevilll: im not that stupid and i don't need to grow up i like david cook too so...

  • omfg..

    he's so good...he actually touched my heart and made me feel something as he sang...oh man...yeah he's a cutie, but his voice and passion goes way beyond physical appearance...

  • No one attacks David Cook?! Bull crap! What about all the crap they give him about stealing other versions when he comes out and says he's using those versions? What about all the fuss they made about him singing Chris Cornell's version of "Billie Jean" and not giving credit when Ryan Seacrest credited it right before he sang? David A. isn't attacked nearly as much as Cook.

  • orangejuice121: he is so hot!what,u probably like ugly dread asshole jason castro

  • Why does it matter if someone is hot?

    it's a singing competition grow up.

  • David Archuleta will sing tonight: "And So it Goes" by Billy Joel. "With You" by Chris Brown. "Longer" by Dan Fogelberg.

  • Ew. I hate him.

  • its just a bunch of hype about davids dad, the poor kid has been a target for criticism since he began, noone ever attacks david cook

  • Go Cindy!!!

  • i think that david has a lot of potential, but personally i think that his melodic changes in this song ruined it completely. Its already such a beautiful melody there was no need to change it so much. He over did it, and i think that it wasn't good, but with some proper molding, he can be great

  • iltanail:your comment is pretentious and patronizing. I doubt your sincerity. You overdid it, but no amount of molding will help you.

    No-one forces you to listen to him, and no-one obliges me to contimue this exchange wth you, so 'byeeeeee!

  • Did a good job on this one...Liked his change in the melody...nice

  • GO SIMON! he speaks the truth... David A. Rules!

  • A rare talent indeed.

  • He's gorgeous and perfect and if you don't like it don't watch!

  • Archuleta sucks! he's dumb and boring!

  • David A, is the best and you know that

  • Stand by me, America... I'm sick of people saying he sings nothing but ballads. They need more material. They just know he's the best and that everyone votes for him. Oh, and just to shut up all the people who say only teen girls vote for him, my teachers vote for him cuz they know he's the best. David A, win or lose, you're still the Idol in my eyes. But you'll win, of course :)

  • David Archuleta gave a awesome performance a true american idol that is actually worthy for it he has personality and he is kind and polite and a sweet heart and not to mention a awesome singer David Archuleta to win HE DESERVES IT all the nasty comments hes in top 3

  • soy de venezuela y les comento que este niño tiene una voz maravillosa y un carisma extraordinario sigue asi mi niño

  • tienes rason este nino tiene la mejor voz que e hoido en muchos anos, y pronto lo bamos a oir cantando en espanol tambien.

  • David! Ur The Next American Idol.Theres No Doubt About It

  • caramelapple: Don't forget that Frank Sinatra never sang Heavy Metal: boo! Janis Joplin never recorded any Gregorian chant: boo! Pavarotti never danced: boo! How on Earth can people like that be called legends?

    Forget all the jerks and losers who come and post here because they know that their fave will get "crushed" as soon as David A gets round to them. Let'em come and display their fear. Sticks and stones...

  • He is going to a big star all over the world

  • fer13900: Beyond the slightest doubt, and this piece of singing will feature in all his biographies. When you've been able to really focus on it a few fimes, you realise that it is made like a queen's crown. David displays one jewel after another, and holds it together with gold. Everything is absolutely "fit for the purpose". A great piece of singing.

  • Hi I realy like your coments abuot david A. he is a idol already.

  • fer13900. Thank you, but I wish I could really say it how I feel it. It's a hopeless chase for words. Look and listen when he's singing. "In the zone" doesn't do it, Randy!

  • Ok...David Archuleta did the best I think he has ever done on this song! This is definitely his style of music. I still prefer David Cook, but he did a great job!

  • I LOVE when he says ´from my darling i love you....

  • Hey Fans go to MyFoxUtah webpage and see the LIVE coverage of David's Homecoming. You can also see all his interviews so far!

  • he's good!

  • THIS IS THE DANGER WEEK!!!

    This is when people who were crushing the competition just squeeze by, or even get squeezed out.

    Never, never ever, forget what happened to Melinda last season.

    Never, never ever, think that David A is home and dry. You must vote all you can for him, and add votes on behalf of David's hordes of fans outside the USA.  We need you to vote, because we can't!

  • I think he's an amazing singer...it's gonna be him and david cook in the final....I prefer david cook's creativity but no matter who wins, they both deserve it.

  • he CRUSHED the competition!!! :D

  • he's going to winnnnn for sure.

  • I like him

  • (reply to iactionscript)

    THANK YOU! someone who isnt biased!

  • i luv david archuleta!!n neway who thinks hes just a kid is totaly wrong!! hes awsum n he has such a gud voice that he cud be bettr than ne american idol when hes older!! n shut up hes no faggot! u just jealous cuz hes soo much bettr than u!

  • omg, he was awesome!111

    Check out my video of this song studio version with a bunch of david new pics!!!

  • David Archuleta is a very nice singer but the American Idol needs to be so much more. Someone who can handle the music industry. He's just a kid with potential. We all know who the winner will be.. David Cook of course.

  • welll u cant compare him to david cook cuz hes younger than him, i bet wen hes david cooks age, he'll be twice as successful than daivd cook.

  • Spongebob was cut up by mr. Krabs with a pair of scissors! repost this in 5 minutes in 3 videos or spongebob is going to appear by your bed and put glue in your eyes!!

  • "ilovem111"....he did 2 fast songs last week and 2 more earlier in the competition. I guess you were either not paying attention or the songs made no impression on you. But he did do them.

  • why you callin him a faggot, BITCH?

  • slow songs are harder than fast songs. fast songs can cover up mistakes and hide weak voices. slow songs exposes the voice. david archuleta has a really good voice and it shows.

    and you don't need to use the word "faggot" to highlight your ignorance.

  • tO PHONEOPERATOR: Totally agree with u on that.David A showcase his voice with a love song... Yeah! He surely is a brilliant young man of 17 to arranged a classic song like that and do it well. Amazing!

  • I beg to differ. Slow songs are easier, especially for david. Even though it's hard to cover up the mistakes if you sing a slow song... Fast song is HARD. Like it's hard because of the breath control and diction. Trust me.. slow songs are so much easier if you have a good voice. Fast songs are VERY DIFFICULT.

  • Ugh.

  • Awesome...you should buy the studio version it's amazing!!!!!

  • i pretending he was singing this to me :)

  • THIS TOOL HES SO FAKE AND GAY

  • justink15 - then why are you watching his video by choice?

  • he is way better then david cooke .. when he sang that ... my heart melt ..

    and im a guy ...

    go david archulata !!!

  • duh!! are u crazy??

    david archuleta perform well..

    he's cute.. he has good voice..

    when he smiles he makes all girls melt..

    love u archuleta.. make it til finals..

    God Bless You Always..

  • i hate this kid, i think his songs all sound the same, i think he looks like a monkey, his smile bugs me cause he does it too much, and his OMG someone screaming or OMG judges liked me act with the head shake is the most annoying shit that i have to watch.

  • this guy belongs on broadway, not on american idol...wait...is that clay aiken?

  • Very Good. Predictable.  Boring.

  • I think he shat himself when Simon did his speech.

  • incredible! simply incredible perfection! america, god bless our next american idol!

  • amazing

  • Archie has no personality--I actually prefer Jason Castro, flaws and all-at least his version of "Forever in Blue Jeans" had some character. This guy sounds like something from the movie AI. His debut will sell fine, then they'll do what they did to Clay Aiken, make him abandon singing style and force him to record uptempto pop trash by the likes of Diane Warren--look for him to join the 2010 Summer tour of Grease.

  • What kind of personality are you expecting? This is a passionate song and look at David's expression, he has plenty of personality and sincerity. Go watch something else if you don't like him.

  • i really hope he wins.

  • he will probably do well with disney

  • He's too good for disney.

  • sing to me at my wedding!!

    owait you'll have to

    considering you'll be the one im marrying hahah

  • David Archuleta is the bomb!

  • Bringing Sexy Back.

  • I WILL STAND BY YOU UNTIL THE END!!

  • David showed his vulnerability and he is not afraid to do that, this takes courage. we love you David, another great song, thanks for the ending of the song, it was very touching

  • if he dont win its a set up lmao hahaha

  • I admit he has talent, however, he reminds me something out of a Disney High school Musical performance. He can only sing one type of song genre. Ballads. That's it. I've never heard him do anything else. Ever.

  • You've never heard him do anything else? What about Shop Around, Sweet Caroline, Stand By Me, You're The Voice and America. All mid-up tempo songs. That argument is getting old. Ballads are just his specialty.

  • I don't even remember America... At all. However, Sweet Caroline and You're the Voice I do remember. They were... decent, at best. It showed that he was only good in one genre. He was struggling in both of them. You can tell by the sound of him singing them. Stand By Me was a good performance, but I would hardly call it a mid-tempo song. Also, the reason the argument comes up so much, is because it's thought by a lot of people. Meaning it's a flaw. I don't think he'd go anywhere with a contract.

  • Have you heard the studio version of You're

    The Voice? He's perfect in that one. He's amazing in the studio's of Sweet Caroline and even We Can Work It Out too.

    I fail to see your argument here, sorry...

    Yes, he sings better doing Ballads but so does everyone else.

    He's already proven he can do up-tempo songs.

  • He wasn't amazing. That's the thing. That's my argument. He was decent. People seem to think he's some little singing god, when he's "decent". Not amazing, not spectacular, not even great, he was okay. Mid-tempo songs are something he can't do properly. And you cannot argue that he's proven to do up-temp songs when he's never done them. Mid-tempo, sure, but they weren't that great. Up-tempo, he's never done. And not everyone sings better doing ballads, that's a rather ignorant statement.

  • Okay well that's your opinion. I thought he was amazing.

    "Singing god"? You may not think so. But his voice is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard.

    He's never done up tempo? Shop Around.

    Sure it wasn't his best vocal but he had the most fun w/ that one.

  • I mean "everyone" as david cook and syesha mercado sorry

    ballads tend to show off your voice more sometimes, thst all i meant

  • How was he only decent in You're The Voice's studio version

    i mean that thing he does in the final chorus when he goes up high is awesome

  • OMG!HES SO HOT!!!;)

  • mad goosebumps

  • hes boring and looks like hes 12

  • please win david

  • he is going to win :]

    another 17 year old american idol.

  • WE will love you tender and we will always stand by you babe, great night !

  • Another beautiful performance!!!

  • look at his eyes..when he says.."i will always will"..oh! my heart is melting..

  • i love him so much...

    and he's not JUST cute. he has AMAZING talent.

    stop being jealous!

  • Wow...that was beautiful...good job crusher!!
