“And to close with a flourish, more than 60 of the biggest Latino stars come together to record the song “We Are The World”, the Spanish version of “We Are The World” and only on “El Show de Cristina” will you witness the global launch of this video and everything that happened behind the scenes, and how this historic video came to life.”……………………………..Audio YouTube by musicrt

Hello, everyone! My name is Cristina and, like all of you, I’ve been an avid David fan since his audition on American Idol. I have always kept up with Archuleta Fan Scene just about everyday since then! And with his “Christmas from the Heart” album dwindling down to its release date on October 13th, we’re all chomping at the bit now that snippets of the songs on his album are available to hold us over until the big day! And that’s it–it’ll be Christmas every single day after that for us all!

Well, since we’re getting into the Christmas spirit early this year, I’d like to give 3 fans a gift. “From the heart.” I’d like to give an opportunity to those fellow fans who are unable to afford David’s holiday album. I was inspired by what was done with David’s Fan Pack in June when it was released. The act of giving is one condition which I’m glad is contagious. And, because I feel that money shouldn’t be an obstacle to face when it comes to David’s music, which, as we know, is priceless.

Here’s how you can receive an early present:

- If you have an active account with iTunes, by which I’ll be sending it to you.

- Providing your first name/nickname and initial of your last name (just in case there’s more than one submission of the same name) please explain to me your situation as to why you aren’t able to afford David’s Christmas album. (Whether it be the loss of your job or someone else’s job in the family, etc.) You can provide as much information as what you feel is appropriate for your response and even what you want me to know. This will all be through e-mail submission, so you do not have to worry about any matters you might find personal being viewed by anyone else. I keep everything confidential.

- Additionally, we all have seen how David has consistently been a wonderful example of giving back to the world. I’d love to hear what act of giving/kindness David has inspired you to do this upcoming holiday season. Briefly explain to me your plan. =]

- Annnnd submit…here! mus1calhe4rt@msn.com no later than 10:00 pm (EST) Sunday, October 11th. All the best and good luck, everyone!
