Well, Archuleta fans, what can I say? Last night’s episode was a strange one…very strange indeed.
“Inspirational” songs was on the menu, and once again, our man Archuleta delivered a powerhouse “Angels” performance that featured his piano skills, his wide range, his expert note selection in the ad-libbed melismas, and his ever-growing readiness for a world-wide concert tour!
What’s interesting about this week’s performance is that his voice was not as on-pitch as it has been in the past. In fact, he looked exhausted as he sang. Has Archuleta been losing sleep (like I have these past few weeks)?? However, that look of exhaustion added a whole ‘nother dimension to the entire performance, and he ended up turning it into artistic gold. His performance last night was on par with seasoned performers who take the stage at their concerts and just absolutely captivate the audience with their voices and musicianship, regardless of the minor pitch issues and vocal faults. I challenge everyone who is reading this to attend a concert with the absolute best singer on the face of the earth that one can think of, and I can guarantee that he/she will not sing everything in tune.
The judges loved it, the fans loved it, I loved it, and that’s really all that needs to be said. AWESOME JOB, ARCHULETA!!!!!

Before getting into the meat ‘n’ potatoes of this post, I would like to take this brief opportunity to congratulate David Archuleta on making it to the Top 10 of American Idol.
I really couldn’t be any happier about this. I am thrilled that he will be traveling the country this coming summer, performing for packed arenas and getting a taste of stardom as a musical performer. There is truly no one that deserves this more than him.
