Over the course of the last 2 years (has it been that long?) since David Archuleta first stepped in front of the judges of American Idol and sang a few bars of “Heaven” so many fans have remarked about “that face.” Scanning fan sites, there are literally thousands of pictures of David, and almost as many different “looks”. Sometimes he looks like a twelve year old, and sometimes you’d swear he is a mature twenty-five. Many of his expressions are funny, others are very serious, some make you want to pinch his cheeks (I know, don’t tell him I said that!), and then there are the ones that make you want to cry. From his youthful smile with cheeks plumped up and white teeth gleaming, to his pained and passionate countenance while singing “Don’t Let Go,” to his ethereal expression at the end of “You Can,” David wears a thousand faces.
And with a little help from Old Blue Eyes himself, Frank Sinatra, here are just a few of the many faces of David Archuleta….

Thanks Abbra -- finally got the touring page!
LOL Dawn we both changed avi!! ahahha
And its the same photographer. *channels* Dawn
Abrra
pabuckie 145, great eye! Hope we see more of it.
emmiegirl -- I know -- don’t blink! heehee
Angelica and YJfanofdavid, your fabulous cookie encounters with David make be burn with jealousy! 🙂
Two of my ODD friends (both 21) and I just decided we are going to find a way, rain or shine, to make it to one of David’s concerts here in the Midwest. We’re gonna borrow someone’s car and go! I feel like a rebellious teenager lol!
We won’t be able up to chuck up the change for VIP tix, though. Still, getting regular tix alone is kinda tough. The Bar has bled me dry. But I’m willing to bleed more for the Archuleta!
Do you guys think this VIP opportunity will ever come up again? I’m guessing it’s a one-time thing for when he’s still someone else’s opening act, to attract the hard-cores. 🙂 Oh my heck! Will there be another chance?
I want to give him a framed copy of one of my Archupoems. But probably not the ones I’ve already written. Perhaps something… more appropriate. LOL!
ronaldsf, from what I’m reading.. VIP is the new “in” thing. I think it’s a way to increase revenue for the artist. I DO hope they do it again. Not THIS year, because between finances and vacation days, Mr. Archuleta has be about tapped out.
I’ve made it a strict rule not to fund any David duties via credit, if I stop tapping the plastic .. I’m done for .. haha.
Abrra .. we live in a parallel universe you and I ..
I have the day off today, so I’m hoping I can do like.. normal household chores before Houston.
oh GOOD news .. my sister is dangerously close to having ODD , yesterday she was trez excited about getting her PC fixed so she could rip a CD, and also used awwww.. he is amazing .. and he is such a cutie .. in the same conversation.
Good GRIEF … that should have been has ME about tapped out .. and if I START tapping the plastic.
Apparently my brain is still misfiring. Oh David.
dawn65, I have terrible concern for your sister. Those phrases you mentioned are typical of Phase 1 of ODD. “What started off mild, turned into obsession.” The more she sees of him, the more betwixt she will be by his talent, soul, and overall fantabulosity. I will prescribe her 10 readings of “I Hate You David Archuleta” as a preventative measure. This vaccine is still in its experimental stages, however.
But don’t worry if she’s a goner. Cause then you can start tapping her credit.
ronald -- yeah, go for it. The trip, the poem, the whole shebang! It seems everyone’s David memories are some of their most special.
dawn -- I love sisters with ODD! Sounds like she is on the edge, begging to be pushed. Show her the soundcheck video, that should do it!
Ronald, Why don’t you and your ODD friends come to Cleveland (27th), or Pittsburgh (28 — SOLO SHOW)? I am going to both. Would love to meet you! SF and sister are going to Pittsburgh too.
Bar exam: July 28-30. Waaaaah! 🙁
Yjfanofdavid: I am now going to Cleveland! Would love to meet you there. I’m taking a friend who is not a David fan yet, but she’s “interested” LOLOL…ODD on the way.
Which ones are David’s solo dates? I’m looking around the net, including fansites, and keep finding conflicting information!
LOL .. I love you guys .. so much .. you’ll never know how much I love you guys.
She signed up for DA.com (because well that’s the first step isn’t it) .. within a couple weeks.. she’ll be here… if she’s not already lurking .. and she may indeed be.
She never watched AI a single day in her life.. so everything she knows.. is through me.. but she scours the YT and already knew about yo gabba gabba in this weeks blog BEFORE I told her.. so .. it appears.. .she’s getting ready to break free of the closet.
Embrace the ODD.. there really is no reason to fight it… it can’t be avoided.. once it has you in it’s grips.. well.. that’s all she wrote.
And I was thinking.. as I was washing the kitchen floor just now .. that David… with all his order giving as of late.. SING IT .. start a Journal.. he’s serious .. could throw us a bone every now and then.. and encourage us to .. sweep a floor .. load a dishwasher.. cause it’s FUN .. and we’d all live happily ever after.
I know there’s at least 10 people on here that would appreciate that.
haha 8)
Hi! You guys are so funny! Is it really possible that you missed this? Or did I miss your review?
rel="nofollow ugc">
You are welcome and I am sorry….
let’s see that again….
FG, Are you trying to start trouble? 😉
Marlie, You are coming to Cleveland? Hurray!! VIP?
Hi Dawn,
Is your sister at a going to a David concert stage as yet? Because if she does…..she could morph at warp speed from stage 1 ODD to terminal. Her life as she knew it will be no more and forever changed. Sounds ominous doesn’t it? -- LOL!
FINALLY it’s here…the opportunity for us to express our desire in writing to have David sing the full version of U2’s song, “One”. Now is our chance to write a little sumthin’ sumthin’ to David about why we want him to sing the full version of the song. The letters will be presented at an upcoming show on the summer tour. Hopefully we will be pleasantly rewarded for our efforts and hear David sing the full song this summer!

PS A huge thank you to Marlie for all her help in getting this started!
FunnyGirl, yes, that HAS been posted here! 1:00-1:10 is now my avatar over at IDF. LOL!
Dawn forgot to mention you said something true -- Of late David really IS embracing his star power now and becoming unafraid of issuing orders. I did not realize this until you said it. Once upon a time he was scared of us all..mmn.. interesting.
I’m all about the campaign for ONE …
joymus .. my sister’s first concert experience will be at Hershey … so we figure she has just a few weeks left.
Once you see him live .. well forget about it.
And right now .. he’s stranded on the side of the road someplace with a flat tire… and he sends out an lol.
ronaldsf… good luck.. you won’t need it .. you have all of us here .. pulling for you 8)
oh Joymus .. his authority is delightful. SING IT .. and get you better get that journal started..cause he’s serious.
I love it .. he’s getting more attached to us as a fanbase with every passing day. It shows.. it’s evident .. and I never felt it as clearly as I did that day at VIP.
when he told us not once..but TWICE…that he didn’t want the acoustic sessions going up on youtube.. in a singsong voice.. and a lovely.. alright? alright… thannnnkkk youuuuuuu.. because than I’ll have to pick different songs (with a bit of a whine) I like it.
Dear TDC .. I honestly do NOT know what is wrong with me today .. I’m like.. in typohell. Please accept my apologies.
Poll to see how many will have the FOD frontpage pic as an avi by the 4 PM .. it’s genius .. and Cassie is my hero.
dawn65… that photo is a classic.

Additional vids -- partial only -- of YOU CAN & MY HANDS up in our LITTLE ROCK page 🙂 thanks to mmmoulton94. I dunno why the uploader titled them as “Here We Go Again” LOL

Ronald,
I think the VIP thing is common now for concerts. I’ve seen VIP tickets offered for others this summer. I think it’s a way to make extra revenue. I also like it because it allows more people a chance to meet David, rather than a select group that always seemed to meet him over and over through their connections.
Let’s all hear it for Abrra (post #149) and her new computer!
Ronald, Dawn and everyone who referred to ODD, I see a book in our future, but maybe you can help me with the title:
“ODD for Dummies”
“Chicken Soup for the ODD Soul”
“How to Survive ODD”
Taking suggestions….lol
Dawn65 #166 “And I was thinking.. as I was washing the kitchen floor just now .. that David… with all his order giving as of late.. could throw us bone every now and then.. and encourage us to .. sweep a floor .. load a dishwasher.. cause it’s FUN .. and we’d all live happily ever after.

You got that right, Dawn! LOL
Joymus #173 “Dawn forgot to mention you said something true -- Of late David really IS embracing his star power now and becoming unafraid of issuing orders. I did not realize this until you said it. Once upon a time he was scared of us all..mmn.. interesting”
I’m a big fan of “My Hands” and noticed the emergence of the “Sing it” command was when he sang it in Manila. See video below at 3:14. I think that trip did wonders for building his confidence. The people were so friendly to him and held nothing back in showing their adoration.

Hey, ronaldsf,
Love your poem! Shed many 😆 tears when I read it.
Here are the dates you asked for. I really want to go to one of these four, but I don’t think I can squeeze in another. Went to Del Mar, and will go to San Jose and Sacramento.
July 28, Pittsburgh
Aug 6, Rockford IL
Aug 9, Sioux Falls SD
Aug 10, Milwaukee WI
http://www.coasttocoasttickets.com/buy/david-archuleta_tickets.htm
This site distinguish David and David/Demi.
Are you going to San Jose or Sacramento?
quiteblanc, thank you for those dates!!
I’m going to see if I can go to either Rockford or Milwaukee. They’re both about the same distance from Detroit. I’ll have to check with my friends’ schedules!
Bebereader #182, have you seen those “Worst-Case Scenario” books? You know, the ones that tell you how to pilot a passenger plane if the pilots become incapacitated, or how to find water in the middle of a desert?
“Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook: ODD”
LOL! If David gets really big, this just might sell!
OMG! David just twittered me! Can’t believe it. He twittered a smiley face to me….yeah!
Ooh, pabuckie! *wipes the fairy dust off your shoulders”
That’s so sweet of him to tweet to his fans! Would you be willing to share what you said? (Don’t have to… 🙂 )
Ronaldsf -- Well I was writing so fast I said a lot of things so not sure which one he was replying to. But I asked if he had any healthy snacks in the car and if he was going to sing Apologize tonight? So, not sure what the smiley face was about…possible just a hello?
DAWN65 on #176 -- Its ok. You must still be in the archuhaze 🙂 He does have that effect no?
RONALDSF -- if you could find a way, go and join a VIP. The time may come soon enough for David not to be able to do such close encounters with fans, so go for it! You guys are lucky to have such chances (weak smile)
Pabuckie, I saw your tweet. I think it was the joke about the Long and Winding Road. It WAS pretty funny. I smiled also when I read it -- haha!
Joymus -- that comment I wrote AFTER he tweeted me. Perhaps he was just giving me a smile since he saw I kept writing so much.
“And I was thinking.. as I was washing the kitchen floor just now .. that David… with all his order giving as of late.. SING IT .. start a Journal.. he’s serious .. could throw us a bone every now and then.. and encourage us to .. sweep a floor .. load a dishwasher.. cause it’s FUN .. and we’d all live happily ever after.
I know there’s at least 10 people on here that would appreciate that.”
LMAO!!
ooooooo pabuckie, I saw that! =:O
Pabukie, According to how it shows on my twitter, he answered your tweet “Are you gonna sing Apologize tonight” with a smiley face. Is that a yes? Cryptic David FTW!
YJfanofdavid -- thanks, it’s interesting how it shows differently on my computer -- his response was to do you have any healthy snacks in the car? I love that he sent me a cryptic smiley…to me it’s a great BIG HELLO!
Vids for Little Rock seem to be coming in slow — David must have slain a lot of angels tonight!
Anw, to tide us over, ElleFunny posted clips of David’s performance -- also posted in out LittleRock Page 🙂
ENJOY!
So David is now in 3rd place -- Adam Lambert is in 1st and Kris Allen is in 2nd place. Vote!
http://tweeterwall.mallplace.com/tw/worldwide/best-male-solo-artist
JackRyan -- thank you for the tremendous work that you do in scouring the globe for David vids all for our enjoyment. Thank You so much for your perseverance!
Updated the LITTLE ROCK page but so far we only have:
-- partial vids of TMH, MY HANDS, YOU CAN, WFM &
-- full versions of WFY, MEDLEY
-- 1 vid showing clips of David’s performances (7:33min long)

My pleasure Joymus 🙂 From afar, I get 1st dibs (almost) on David’s hawtness LOL And there is no way I will delay sharing, otherwise I would implode — right DAWN? SF? ANGELICA? RONALD? BEEBEEREADER? JELLO? And the rest of you who have it baaaad with ODD 😉

Ronald, Joner and I will be at Milwaukee if you end up coming there!
Just added ALTNOY & CRUSH plus. Hopefully we will get to see DLG, Apologize & Zero Gravity in a while plus full versions of the partials temporarily uploaded.
Have to go back to work now. See ya guys later!
quiteblanc #183, those dates will be in july, and i’ll be here in michigan studying for the bar this month. 🙁 there are other ODD’ers here though who you’ll get to meet!
ronald,
will you still be here in august?
David is performing on august 18th in Clarkston at the DTE Theater. A little over an hour from ann arbor. I am going and taking my sister. We are VIP!!!
I am a David virgin. I’ve never been. It’s a beautiful amphitheatre -- all outdoors and gorgeous.
JR (or anyone else): I am not able to upload this video to youtube -- they don’t like my audio (I purchased it on Amazon!) Is there anyway I can share it from here or put it somewhere that people can download it if they would like it. I am happy to share it.
Hi all! My first time ever posting at TDC but I have definitely visited your awesome site before — I’m a little shy about posting. :-s
Anyway, I was at the Little Rock concert last night and it was supremely AWESOME! lol. My first ever David concert so it was quite an experience for me.
I wanted to post to let you know the deal with the lack of videos. For whatever reason, security was super tight about videoing last night. They were going up to every person that they spotted taping and making them stop. It’s a miracle we got as many vids as we did…damn the man! lol
I think someone posted my medley vid from youtube above (thanks for that, btw!) and I just wanted to apologize for the horrible motion sickness anyone who watched it got. 🙂
Originally I was gonna just not video at all after scary security guy came over during the first song and told me to stop. But then David said that he was doing the medley and I just KNEW I had to get that. So I started recording and kept aiming the camera up and down to make it look like I was taking pictures rather than video. lol. And then at 1:12 in, security guy came right at me so I panicked and hit the stop button. I picked back up about 10 seconds later but it means I kind of missed the high point of “One”. I got great audio of the entire rest of the medley, though.
Security, bah!
I did get pretty good video of the curtain coming down & part of TMH — and HAHA you actually get to hear the scary security guy tell me to stop videoing at the end of that one. I think it’s already posted over on the tour page but I’ll give you the link to it anyway:
rel="nofollow ugc">
I love it when he waves behind the curtain…
I posted That Face on MediaFile:

marlie7
Long time lurker here…..& really enjoy the humor on this site along with the thoughtful posts about David’s character.
Thank you so much for uploading the video MY Face to mediafile.
I have it in my itunes now & will transfer it to my ipod soon.
Thank you so much!
Tina,
Looks like we are coming down with stick-it-to-the-man-itis!
Thanks for taping.
Tina,
Welcome and thank you for taking the risks you did to capture singing the Medley especially when we learnt after the show just why he did it.
The thing is David looks so unassuming but when he gets under your skin… you find yourself trying at all costs to do what you need to do short of robbing a bank, to get a piece of him -haha!
David. VIP right now.
Falling acapella.
They have to be dying.
Falling. Wow!
I know, I know!! A Capella is two words!
Inner fangirl is screaming to get out today.
Cannot type or act age appropriately at all!
Word is Como la flor is making an appearance again tonight!
That is the word on Twitter.
Twittercast ftw.
Also, a shorter than normal haircut.
And we all atwitter over the fact that he did the medley last night. OMG -- Falling at VIP, Como La Flor tonight. Fading fast here right now. Just today I was wondering if he would sing it as he was in Texas. I sure hope people are able to get some vids to us.
David has just made the entire tour exciting ’cause you never know how he’s gonna mix-up his songs now. If he does Desperate and One at least one time -- we may all be left gasping for air!
For those who missed post #171:
FINALLY it’s here…the opportunity for us to express our desire in writing to have David sing the full version of U2’s song, “One”. Now is our chance to write a little sumthin’ sumthin’ to David about why we want him to sing the full version of the song. The letters will be presented at an upcoming show on the summer tour.

joymus #217 Yes, I sent the link to Snarkies and FOD, so far.
Angelica -- I love your write ups…that was some dream, but very telling of how we feel about David. I have so many questions. Been missing you around here and waiting patiently for that slowmo video.
dawn -- I caught that….lol
See some new names….welcome!
Bebe -- If today he song Falling, I still can’t wrap my head around that, pray that it was ok to video and put on youtube, but my guess would be that ain’t happening, hopefully for my VIP!
One campaign would be a dream come true…maybe also post on the other fansite threads.
Como La Flor reappears!!!!!!!!!
David got his locks shorn! Very short! 😥
His beautiful hair grows fast though..so it’s all good! (as long as it’s not a Brooke-Special Caesar cut). It looks pretty short though.
He’s wearing red-white-blue plaid..so Patriotic is he!! 😆
He sang Falling A capella?? Be still my heart! **sigh**
blurry photo from houston
http://twitpic.com/97nin
Texas is Demi country. I think she’s from Texas..but Texans also love David. Won their hearts when he sang Como La Flor by request at his solo tour..he aims to please, and please he does!
So Demi is throwing an all-day party tomorrow. David will probably join Demi and I hope he has a blast. I’m guessing David will get MANY invitations from fans to join them in their festivities. I wonder if he would ever consider accepting a fan’s invitation?? hmmmmmm?
Wonder if we’ll have to wait all night again for videos/pics from tonight’s concert…The anticipation makes me cra-zeh!
Good picture!
http://twitpic.com/97pl6
Another
http://twitpic.com/97pi1
He’s going to kill us all with his plaid! 😀 Who knew there were so many stylish ways to wear plaid?
Only David…
So glad he’s got the holiday off. SF, if Demi’s having a party, I can’t imagine David would decline. It sounds like it would be a whole lotta fun anyway.
I wish he were performing for the Capital 4th or New York City’s Macy’s Fireworks show. Oh well. Perhaps another summer.
I was a re-tweeting fool and then right after the concert my twitter just full-out BROKE DOWN. There are/were many tweets I wanted to retweet of people oooing and ahhing and generally in massive post-concert blissful archu_stupor.
Houston was a huge success I’d say. 🙂
Like the hair! Like the plaid! Demi is having a July 4th party! David tweeted about the heat in Texas…..and sweat…..Life is good!….and when the videos of Houston are up, life will be even better! 🙂
oh… and forgot to say… to those of you who were following my tweets, if I seemed to suddenly fall off the face of planet tweet… it’s because I DID. :/
Burkey: Glad to see you were able to log in and got the video. Enjoy!
My poor dogs are going bananas with all the booming fireworks!
Isn’t the Fourth TOMORROW???
Oh SF ~ you know EVERY night David sings there are FIREWORKS!!
Hi everyone….just popping in to say “Hi” and thanks for all the vids and tweets and pics….OH MY!!
While we’re waiting for videos to put up,
WARNING!! You might want to get a drink, sit down, relax and enjoy. Here’s a tribute video of David to Sade’s music! Hellogorgeous where are you?
pabuckie: LOVE the slow motion -- whew!
Angelica is a master at producing videos of David..She captures the exact right photos to go with the lyrics…and the songs she chooses are perfect! This slow mo vid REALLY captures David’s beauty & sensuality. There is no denying David is IT, has IT, in spades!
Angelica..Standing O!!
Here we go!
A tweeter said David left “with family” after the concert. I didn’t know he had family in Texas, but glad to know he is with family. Hope he has an awesome Fourth!
Good night all. And for David..
Dear Lord,
Please take care of David. Watch over him, protect him from all harm. Cloak him with your love and give him the strength to endure all that is thrown in his path. Give David the courage and guidance to say no to those who ask for more than he can reasonably give. Surround David with loving and supportive people who love him UNCONDITIONALLY as we, his Archangels do. Separate David from those who have agendas other than for his well being. Give him rest when he’s weary. Give him the stamina to sustain his hectic pace. Give him assurance when he feels doubt. Give him joy when he feels sad. Cloak him always in your protective arms during this time on his journey. Keep David and and his voice healthy & strong as he fulfills his Destiny which was written in his Book of Life before he was born. And please Lord, give us, David’s forever fans, the wisdom to know when and how to do right by David. Open our eyes and help us in the way we support David so that it’s always in his best interests. May his positive and good Karma continue to attract those with positive and good Karma! May he continue to encounter goodwill and happiness! May he continue to be healthy and strong during this time in the summer tour with Demi. Keep David and his companions safe as they journey across this land of ours. Though we may be unworthy, we humbly pray. Amen
David, hope you have a good night’s sleep & sweet dreams on the road. Keep with you all our love, prayers and warm thoughts! We will always love you madly! If you are ever in need of help, tweet us an SOS and your Archangels will be there in a flash!
Contigo siempre con amor!
Thanks to everyone for posting videos and updates. It makes it so easy to feed the ODD when traveling.
Marlie--love your video!
I will be seeing David in Grand Prairie on Sunday. Dallas is Demi’s hometown, so I am curious to see how he is received. I hope to note the audience’s reaction when he is onstage. Realistically, I’m hoping to remember to breathe while he is onstage and not stare like a demented sheep:)
Angelica that was beautiful. You really have a feel for him.
My heart raced and slowed.
Barriers (with a few lovely change-ups)
angelica, you have outdone yourself! Whoa.
Don’t Let Go:
You Can:
Bebe#182 -- A Day in A Life of ODD??
and the “sing it” from Manilla, made me stop and stand at notice….. ooookkkkk…. and I’ve been singing along since….
WOW, DLG Houston is really good. Still one of my favs. Please keep doing it DA. At least till after Seattle. I did say PLEASE…….
and Barriers!!!
“Here’s a tribute video of David to Sade’s music! Hellogorgeous where are you?”
Pabuckie, here I am! Was called away from the computer with a long distance call that went on for hours.
Anyway, Sade plus slo-mo David = THUD!
Finally, log in! Took a while. Well, well well, Houston seems to be a blast. And the spanish tease is back!
HOUSTON PAGE now up & complete! 🙂
https://www.thedavidchronicles.com/2009/05/houston-texas-july-03-2009houston-texas-july-03-2009/
MARLIE -- thanks for the links
LOVE your video Angelica! Your hard work paied off! Great job and I LOVE the song!
Angelica! I should have heeded the *Warning*!
I love, Love, LOVE your video! That Sade song with all those fleeting slo-mo images of David shifting through all the wonderful essences that make him so “David”. And that expression on his face when he sang Apologize for the first time in Del-Mar…..Gah!!! My heart hurts, I think it’s love.
Angelica, I don’t know whether to thank you or slap you! 😉
*Thud*
xaris “Realistically, I’m hoping to remember to breathe while he is onstage and not stare like a demented sheep” LOL!
Anglica That is one suh-mokin’ video there, m’dear! Requires that one drag around both a defibrillator AND a fire hose. LOVE IT! (Bless your soul… lol)
Angelica, So in the middle of making THIS hot video, you went and had a conversation about cookies with your magnificent subject matter, and came back and finished the video? I am now even more impressed with your presence of mind… 🙂
