I love two contestants from American Idol Season 7. I first fell in love with Josiah Leming when he sang Grace Kelly by Mika on the first audition to pick the top 50. I really like him despite him being a little emotional but everyone can see that he has talent. Yes, talent! So, I was like 'Why?' when he screwed up by singing that horrible version of Stand By Me. But I have to praise the judges because they actually gave him a second chance.
When he wasn't in the top 24 I was very dissapointed. But my dissapoinment ended when I heard and watched David Archuleta. OMG, he has everything! The attitude, the look and the talent. And he is sooooo humble and cute. I LOVE HIM!
I watched his performances again and again, and I never seem to get enough of it. I have goose bump each time I watch him singing. I really hope he wins. His every word comes straight from the heart and thats why no matter what other people say-negative things-I'll always be his fan.
But I'm a bit concerned about his vocal paralysis. Its not completely healed yet but he did say he feels a lot better. I pray that the thing will not come back. Just thinking of it makes me very, very sad. God bless David Archuleta.

His Imagine preformance was like paula said - very moving. I loved the way he did it and if he keeps up like this he will definately win. he also seems very sweet as a person!

It was very moving indeed. I watched it again and again and each time I do I feel touched and moved. Maybe one of the reason is, the song is not about love song but about the world, humanity. And when David Archuleta sang the way he did, it just added more meaning to the song. Imagine, if the way of the world can change to better way by this song, David Archuleta will be the perfect person to sing it. I hope he wins and change the world, somehow. God Bless.

Haha. David Archuleta is not on your favorites list? He's the main reason I watch American Idol and I heard a lot of people say the the same thing. Gothic girl? You mean Amanda Overmyer? Yeah, she's still there. I think. Because I don't watch the girls performances that much. Only David Archuleta. Haha. Looking forward for his next performance!
