David is truly a gift! I'm so proud of him and the kind of person he is and what he's accomplished in such a short time. I keep him and his family in my prayers that he will continue to stay in fatih , keep his priorities straight and to continue to be richly blessed! What an inspiration he is to people of all ages, gender, and cultures! Although I don't like to use the word "idol", he is as humanly perfect as it can get! I respect him, his music, talents (more yet to come!) and his humble spirit! He's awesome and patient with his fans...even in the scorching Texas heat! He was glowing and was emitting such positive vibes! I thought naw...I must be imagining things!?!...nope, he's the real deal folks! Angelic! (I'm a fan for life!)

The world has become merzmerized as well as hypnotized by this fantastic vocalist. David has done more for this world in the past 1 1/2 years then most people could do in a lift-time. His devotion to first the Lord, & then his family & finally his friends & fans has been over-whelming. David definitely has his priorities straight. He is using his God-given talent to help so many sick & under-privileged people & children in this world today. We certainly need more people like him! His beautful, heavenly voice, along with his sweet demeanor, will surely, with the Lord's blessings, keep him on top of his game & in the limelight. He deserves to become a true superstar!! I wish him the very best in life & pray, with the Lord's guidance, a successful career! Live your dream, David!! (A forever oldies but goodies fan!)

Last year when David sang "Imagine" on American Idol it brought tears to my eyes! No one can sing like he does. He is not only a great singer, he has wonderful values and is very down to earth. While many of the singers today have songs with sex infused lyrics and their concerts are very sexual and over the top in production, David shows his true talent by keeping everything simple. How many artists today could even sing a song acappella? Love David, his outstanding singing voice and his wonderful values! He is amazing!!!!!!

I have enjoyed reading your comments and want to agree with all of you. Lets continue to support him by purchasing his albums, itunes singles and requesting his music on the radio over the internet. Check out one of his many fansites for the info. I remember Simon Cowell commenting that David is a "true American idol." He was referring to his morals, attitude and talent. To quote a friend of mine - "Humility and meekness are greatness in complete control," that explains David.

There is something about David Archuleta--more than the beautiful smooth as honey voice--it is the person he is.

I'm glad you had a chance to meet and see for yourself the amazing David Archuleta.

I am thankful to see the video "Prayer for the Children" and really hope to see "Imagine" as well --Although I have never met David--I have been to a couple of his concerts and can sense the genuine gentle loving spirit of this special young man.

David is an amazing vocalist. I cannot get enough of him. I have attended several of his concerts and look forward to many more to come. He is an amazing 18 year old with a heart of gold and you rarely see these qualities in teenagers these days. I support David 100% and he deserves everything he gets in life and more.

David Archuleta fan FOREVER!!!

David Archuleta is not only an incredible singer/songwriter but an amazing young American Idol role model for people of all ages. It is so nice to see a young artist at 18 years old give back so much back to so many different causes with his incredible gift God has given him. An artist that can sing with that incredible voice and leave all of us young and older breathless listening to his vocal perfection, even without music. His CD is amazing just like David Archuleta. What a great example he sets for all of us. I am sure he has plenty of time to get more education than he has, he loves what he is doing now and he knows that God had a special singing plan for him right now. The rest will follow. After all he is only 18.
