Do you guys remember this? David performed Touch My Hand on Idol exactly 3 years ago! Which means I’ve been a fan for 3 years now! I didn’t know David then and when I fell in love with A Little Too Not Over You on the radio, I watched his video on youtube (which btw is still not available in the US…please tell @VEVO to fix that) and while reading all the lovely comments on that video, someone commented to watch David on Idol “tonight!” and so i’m like… hmm…. interesting i think i will!!!!! And so I did and I was amazed!! ♥ So thank you to that fan who commented that! She totally changed my life! Let’s relive this moment! This video always brings back happy memories. I hope it does for you guys too!
Touch My Hand from American Idol Season 8 performance



Oh Dear!! I know David was disappointed that night with his performance. Just goes to show he picks up fans even when he is not his best!!

Memories, I also remember David saying he was sorry to his fans because he was disappointed with his performance. I remember being so excited about him being in the show, but also nervous. Now I see David differently. If he sang that today with a highten confidience he has now, wow, that would be awesome.

I can’t seem to open the video either. Here’s the best copy of a TV video I found on YT http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=01yh4gIJ-EI

Wow Tiff, love hearing these stories how we all ended up here, and yours was a bit different. While we were all worrying, unbeknownst to us, David gained one of his uber-fans.
How many of us can credit youtube to the start of our Archuleta’ing?

What I loved most about that night was even though this was arguably David’s worst public appearance ever, within 20 minutes he was backstage uploading a video for Invisible Children. I remember doing a post for Snarkies that evening and was just in awe of how he was able to do that.

I don’t care even that was his worst performance I still love him no matter what. We know that he had too many awesome performances especially when he sang the National Anthem or other Patriotic songs. Can’t wait to see him again in two years. OMG why two years seems soooooooooooo loooooooooong.
