Not sure if I would pity or envy the person his eyes has chosen to lay upon! LOL

This was the point during Everybody Hurts when I literally held my breath waiting for the exquisite release of his last notes. BRAVO David!

Great photos, JR! I see David is getting back to his performance self -- singing Crush with the motions of the old days. Not that I want him to go back and be that young boy -- I prefer David the young man, but I like seeing him let go a little bit 🙂

David Archuleta Amazes BYU Students with Surprise Performance (Video)
byLDS Living | Oct. 07, 2015
During BYU’s Homecoming opening ceremonies, students were shocked when David Archuleta took the stage to sing his first hit single “Crush” and “Glorious,” which was featured in the Church’s movie Meet the Mormons.
The surprise performance came while Advancement Vice President Matthew Richardson was pretending to host BYU Idol. Richardson invited the contestants–Vocal Point and Divine Comedy’s Tori Pence–to perform on stage, then said there would be one last-minute performance. That’s when Archuleta appeared in front of thousands of screaming fans.

BYU Homecoming Spectacular dress rehearsal tonight. I am super excited for the show tomorrow. David Archuleta is amazing and incredibly kind. It was so fun for me to be back on stage with the Young Ambassadors. It has only been 19 years 🙂 #istillfeelyoung #davidarchuleta #byu

TONIGHT I TOUCHED DAVID ARCHULETA’S LEFT ARM AND HE SAID “YOURE WELCOME” AND LOOKED ME IN THE EYE WE SHARED A MOMENT CLEARLY IM FREAKING OUT
marlie7 on October 9, 2015 at 6:18 am
JR -- thank you so much for getting these all up so quickly -- I love that it is daytime there when it is nighttime here! I woke up this morning to this beautiful set of videos, photos, twitter and instagram posts.
His voice was in superb form last night -- every note (even on Parachutes and Airplanes, which always makes me hold my breath when he gets to “airplanes’ LOL)
Everybody Hurts was the best ever -- the emotion was so strong and true. And hearing him sing Imagine once more…simple sublime.
jackryan4da on October 9, 2015 at 6:32 am
MARLIE -- It was a pleasure getting back to the same TDC groove. I quite agree. His voice was so on point last night. I think this is the 1st time I truly enjoyed PANDA. I think maturing this past 2-3 years helped cos his interpretation is different now.
And THAT Everybody Hurts? And THAT Nearer, My God, To Thee. Exquisite!! It was breathtaking. David should really consider performing in a musical theatre.
Am a bit clunky with my posting as am now using a mac. Am still adjusting with the keyboard and esp the softwares I can use with my Archie “duties”. Downloading stuff is much easier with windows but am getting the hang of it. But I think I have set up my mac at its optimal state to get my Archie stuff on track LOL.
If we think last night was the BOMB, am sure tonight’s show will surpass it 🙂

jackryan4da on October 9, 2015 at 2:52 pm
I do not know what it is… but I detect something REALLY different with David. Esp when he was singing Parachute & Airplanes… he was singing it like it was a love song.
Why do I get that? SEARCH ME!

Would you pity or envy the person those eyes have laid upon? Tee-hee

Singing with David Archuleta this week has been one of the highlights of my performing career. We all know he’s got an amazing voice, but as I’ve rehearsed and conversed with him over the past few days, the thing that has impressed me the most is his humble desire to use his talents to share a message of love and light.
I feel honored to share the stage with him.
Ryan Stitt Love that version of Nearer My God to Thee that you guys did!

Thursday we attended the Homecoming Spectacular despite the stressful schedules. We got to see David Archuleta, so theres no question if it was good or not! Our tickets were $5, and that explains our quality of seats too (nosebleed benchers, with no empty seats around or back rests). Awesome.

BYU spectacular
Another week has gone by, full of school, work, soccer, and busy schedules.
The highlight of the week for me was taking the girls to the Homecoming Spectacular at the BYU Marriott Center featuring David Archuleta. It was so good and we enjoying hearing him sing, as well as seeing and hearing some of the other groups from BYU, like Vocal Point,
…
We have found ourselves singing the song “Glorious” all week. That has been one of my favorites for quite a while. I love the message of the song.
marlie7 on October 12, 2015 at 2:57 pm
JR -- two fabulous events and I just love seeing the comments from people who attended. I’m looking forward to the concert with Nathan Pacheco this coming Friday night -- hoping for videos!
