David Archuleta Sings “Zero Gravity” – Video

David Archuleta Sings “Zero Gravity” - Video

Have you heard David Archuleta’s song “Zero Gravity” yet?  It isn’t on his album and it hasn’t been released anywhere but he performed it live during a performance in Richmond, Virginia last week. I like it a lot but it’s pretty different from anything on his album (which I loved when I reviewed it!).  I think you can tell that he hasn’t performed this song too often since, even though he was great, he didn’t seem as comfortable as… More »

Inside Disney’s American Idol Experience

Inside Disney’s American Idol Experience

I cannot put up pictures yet of what I saw while I was inside the American Idol Experience attraction at Disney’s Hollywood Studios but I can tell you a few things! There were five finalists and we were given instructions about how to vote for the person we liked best (there’s a voting panel on the armrests).  The only problem is that you can accidentally change the vote of the person sitting next to you, which happened to me (fortunately,… More »

Josiah Leming Covers “The Freshmen”

Josiah Leming Covers “The Freshmen”

With opening chords that sounded eerily reminiscent of Daughtry’s hit song “Home” the infamous, Josiah Leming, covered “The Freshmen.”  You may remember him as the emotional (but outstanding) contestant whose elimination from the Top 50 last year on American Idol shocked a lot of people (even Ellen Degeneres had him on her show and felt he deserved some good prizes). Anyway, so back to the cover.  I’m a real fan of The Verve Pipe’s “The… More »

David Archuleta Sends Message to American Idol Judges

American Idol cutie, David Archuleta, recently sent out a message to the judges on the popular singing competition which I first spotted on the J-14 website (thanks to Nikki of Junior Celebs!).  It was, of course, an adorable little video with David telling Randy Jackson that he misses all the “dawg” comments, thanking Paula Abdul for all the nice (but weird) things she said about him, telling Simon Cowell that he’s very cool even… More »

This is it!  The last look back at a previous season of American Idol before the new one begins!!!  Are you ready?  Are you excited? The seventh season ended with the battle of the Davids as young David Archuleta went up against the more experienced David Cook.  It really was a hard-fought battle with Archie delivering some incredible vocal performances while Cookie dished out riskier ones.  In the end, Cook’s gambling paid off and he was… More »
