Teenage girls voted for Cook because they had a crush on him. Cook was not a better singer than David A. David Archuleta was far superior than Cook. Now go on Cook's videos and fawn on him. Leave David Archuleta alone.
I haven't seen these video's for years and as I watch them today. I still think he was the best of that season. No disrespect to David C. I like him too, but David Archuleta you were then and will always be my ONLY AMERICAN IDOL. Thank you for sharing your God-given talent with us. Can't wait until you return!!!
He didn't need the title of winner. Everyone knew he had the best voice and a beautiful soul. He continues to enchant everyone with his voice and presence. Truly one of the top voices of his generation.
David you were the winner to so many of us. I have loved watching you grow these many years. You have been a shinning example to so many, in so many ways. Thank you!
He helped me through the roughest times of my life including when I got bullied everyday at school. Then losing my grandmother to cancer a few days or month after I graduated and went into a deep depression. But listening to archuleta helped me alot through it and still does.
Geez this little guy can sing like an angel. He didn’t need to win, because they already had him signed to a contract. Most of the time the best singers don’t need the publicity to make the dollars for the music producers, so they have the secondary singers win to boost their popularity.
I still think to this day that he has one of the most beautiful voices to ever be on American Idol. It's a shame he lost to Cook.. Archuleta was head over heals better than Cook in every aspect. But I guess that's how American Idol has always been.. almost every year the best singer comes in second for some reason.. Also why I stopped watching the show.
+xxladybug94 Pia Toscano was the best vocally of season 10, but she had no stage presence. Scotty was a good singer, he wasn't amazing like Pia and he had no stage presence. If I were to pick the finale for Season 10 it would be Haley Reinhart and James Durbin.
He really deserved to WIN. Now since he already signed a record deal with JIVE RECORD. I hope this time the FANS should support him in FULL FORCE to prove to AMERICA he is THE REAL AMERICAN IDOL and make his First Album will be #1 in The Chart.
#2 was the right spot for him because he never liked all the attention. There could be no doubt he was the BEST singer that show ever saw and the best person!
@1HuskyFire agreed I didn't get to have dinner with him but I was fortunate enough to meet him at this concert at a meet in greet in pa and he truly is a sweet genuine soul.
Plus even Simon was always complementing his performances , and Simon hardly ever did that unless he knew the person could actually sing like really good.
I could listen to his voice on a constant loop ... non-stop. Something about his spirit and gift .... He won, for sure, Season 7 !! It was a definite shock.
That was so awesome!!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Love David Archuleta. Amazing singer. I listen to him everyday. He is truly a gift from god.
That performance David was one idol of all times. I can listen to it over and over again. You are a talented person! I think you should have won dude! Still the best!💙
His round one performance of Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me. His second round performance of In This Moment and his version of Imagine during the final round made so so so much sense now to me. So happy for you David 🌈
In our hearts your the American Idol DAVID ARCHULETA. i follow your albums Crush, A little too not over you, something bout love etc... you have so many songs that i remember. but these three is the best.
Yo!! he won that compitician hands down! No disrespect to david cook. But, David Archuleta has proven by a shadow of a doubt that he is a very rare very blessed young man that God has more plans for him. He is a Christian and he demostrates his faith in God in all he does. Thank you David for lighting up my world from the very first time I heard & saw you ,and every day I begin my day with a song by you. God Bless.
You're welcome,Jan, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I agree with you, David is an awesome, endearing, young man...he made this season such a pleasure to watch. I'm sure we'll being seeing and hearing a lot from him.
he made me cry in the song in this moment and it takes alot to make me cry! way to go and you're my role model and i'm 17 and want to meat you so much!!!!!!!
2022? His song "crush" was recommended on TH-cam music and then I'm curious of where he is now that's why I decided to search his old videos here on TH-cam and this clip of him is so magnificent. ♥️🥺
Agreed. I remember this night like it was just last night. I kept dialing that number over again as much as I could before the results came in. And remember crying when I found out archuletas name was not called out on the card I was so sad and cried myself to bed had to have my parents comfort me .oh the good old days.
I was totally with Randy the whole time. He must have also been blown away when David A didn't win. Not that it mattered that much. He's the best perforer I've seen on AGT to this day. A decade and a half later. 😉
When David didnt win American idol. I stopped watching it. And then came Alejandro Aranda. They are so similar in so many ways. I absolutely admire them both.
The sun will allways shine on YOU and your beautiful voice.❤😊
He definitely should have won the competition
It was shocking when he didn't win even though he won the three rounds. He won people's hearts either way and that's what matters.
David Archuleta is The Real American Idol !
and Adam Lambert
@mathewhorodner2000 Kris Allen won because he's from the South. I grew up in Arkansas, too.
There just are no words to describe how rare a voice like this is. David Archuleta can make you cry every time he sings. He's magic.
True
He sings to my heart with that amazing and angelic voice.
David steals my heart every time I hear his voice, whether is comes over some PA system anywhere. I know that voice!!!
I do cry everytime. How did you know?
After so many years past, I still can't believe that he didn't win.
Should have never been in the finals he forget his lyrics 3 times during the season. David Cook was much better & much more original
+BBBYpsi you are super wrong David Archuleta is way better and cuter
So chill
There you have it only little girls voted for him because they thought he was cute.
Teenage girls voted for Cook because they had a crush on him. Cook was not a better singer than David A. David Archuleta was far superior than Cook. Now go on Cook's videos and fawn on him. Leave David Archuleta alone.
You are so right!! Saw him Monday night at Highland Ballroom in NYC. He's still a knockout performer!!
I haven't seen these video's for years and as I watch them today. I still think he was the best of that season. No disrespect to David C. I like him too, but David Archuleta you were then and will always be my ONLY AMERICAN IDOL. Thank you for sharing your God-given talent with us. Can't wait until you return!!!
He didn't need the title of winner. Everyone knew he had the best voice and a beautiful soul. He continues to enchant everyone with his voice and presence. Truly one of the top voices of his generation.
Spot on, Daniel with this comment from one year ago!
Exactly. We all know who the true winner was❤
Tats y he got 3.2k likes after 15 yrs,
Everyone except the millions who voted for David Cook.
This one was a toss-up for me and I'd have been happy with either of them winning.
Also, if you look at where David Cook is now and what he's accomplished compared to David Archuleta ? That says it all.
David you were the winner to so many of us. I have loved watching you grow these many years. You have been a shinning example to so many, in so many ways. Thank you!
He helped me through the roughest times of my life including when I got bullied everyday at school. Then losing my grandmother to cancer a few days or month after I graduated and went into a deep depression. But listening to archuleta helped me alot through it and still does.
It's been 12 years.. And it still hurts knowing that he didn't win season 7 😭💔
Really? He's okay.
That Voice
I'm he's cousin from Honduras I got pictures with him in 2010 When he visited My country. 💪🏻💪🏻 #teamdavidarchie
JohnMV HONDURAS My name is Chuck bud
I still can't believe he didn't win....he was my American idol !!
He COMPLETELY outsang Cook in the finale......
Knock cook song out cold in the final..
The best that ever tried out for that show.... Love you David...
I was astounded he didn't win. And years later I still watch his videos but I have no idea what happened to David Cook
He should have won. Probably one of the best voices on the planet
Oct 2020. I just couldn’t believe he is Honduran 🇭🇳🇭🇳 I’m so proud of being one btw. As a singer he is so great 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼👏👏👏❤️ amazing performance
Geez this little guy can sing like an angel. He didn’t need to win, because they already had him signed to a contract. Most of the time the best singers don’t need the publicity to make the dollars for the music producers, so they have the secondary singers win to boost their popularity.
Exactly!!
Brilliant. Heavily
I still think to this day that he has one of the most beautiful voices to ever be on American Idol. It's a shame he lost to Cook.. Archuleta was head over heals better than Cook in every aspect. But I guess that's how American Idol has always been.. almost every year the best singer comes in second for some reason.. Also why I stopped watching the show.
i agree. he was much better. he has such a heavenly voice. i have all his albums and i just love his voice
i think they do that to produce more artists.. first, the winner himself, and the better one who takes home the second place.
+xxladybug94 Pia Toscano was the best vocally of season 10, but she had no stage presence. Scotty was a good singer, he wasn't amazing like Pia and he had no stage presence. If I were to pick the finale for Season 10 it would be Haley Reinhart and James Durbin.
I think the same as you
All cuz he had a better voice the David cook don’t make him better like this David cook made it past American idol he didn’t he go drop
All these songs stole my heart
This is a young man who sings 200% as his mom would agree, you gotta put the 'heart' into the song, David always delivers!
My favorite Idol ever. No one else I'd rather see live. Hurry back, David! #DA2014
The sun is shining on you David. Live your life your way.❤❤❤😂😊😊😊
He really deserved to WIN.
Now since he already signed a record deal with JIVE RECORD. I hope this time the FANS should support him in FULL FORCE to prove to AMERICA he is THE REAL AMERICAN IDOL and make his First Album will be #1 in The Chart.
He was my winner
#2 was the right spot for him because he never liked all the attention. There could be no doubt he was the BEST singer that show ever saw and the best person!
I got to meet and go to dinner with him he is such a down to earth guy.
Don’t rekindle this David cook/ David archuleta feud my family had during this period of time 😂
@1HuskyFire agreed I didn't get to have dinner with him but I was fortunate enough to meet him at this concert at a meet in greet in pa and he truly is a sweet genuine soul.
Plus even Simon was always complementing his performances , and Simon hardly ever did that unless he knew the person could actually sing like really good.
One of the most beautiful voices in the world. Great inspiration!
David, I have always loved you. I love you still; I love you even more!
I could listen to his voice on a constant loop ... non-stop. Something about his spirit and gift .... He won, for sure, Season 7 !! It was a definite shock.
Great Video - 5 Stars !
There is no doubt that David Archuleta is THE BEST THING EVER HAPPENED TO AMERICAN IDOL.
He's the reason i still watch idol every year .
That was so awesome!!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Love David Archuleta. Amazing singer. I listen to him everyday. He is truly a gift from god.

His round one performance of Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me. His second round performance of In This Moment and his version of Imagine during the final round made so so so much sense now to me. So happy for you David 🌈
Binge listening to this masterful artist.. May 2021
Oh archie... one of the amazing idol contestant. What a soulful performance 😍
Why is this very talented young man not as successful as he should be?
He decided that serving God was more important than being a famous singer.
I loved this young man on Idols 7. My family were captivated by his singing voice. David sung!
In our hearts your the American Idol DAVID ARCHULETA. i follow your albums Crush, A little too not over you, something bout love etc... you have so many songs that i remember. but these three is the best.

wow just wow he should have won truly this last 3 performance to the finale is a knock out.
his voic.e is his giFt. he did not want to be an idol, he is shy, he got exposure here, he will find his own way to pursue his talent
He was the winner fell
On love back then
He's an amazing singer
wow he has a strong voice
If you love him, do not miss his unbelievably beautiful Christmas songs as lead singer with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir --
He is still singing and a Super star 🌟. Amazing looks an talent!
He is so very talented and so very humble that as a mom I just want to hug him and kiss him as a child that I am so very very proud of.😘😘😘😘❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
his range is is rediculously fantabulous
In this moment ❤
he made me cry in the song in this moment and it takes alot to make me cry! way to go and you're my role model and i'm 17 and want to meat you so much!!!!!!!
How did he not win?!
His performance was nearly perfect
same with Adam Lambert the following year
The Southern Talibangelicals have nothing better to do than vote repeatedly for 2 hours.
i cry almost every time i listen to him sing that's good becasue I don't cry that much good job!!!!!!!
Just a beautiful human being
he sang the life out of himself In this moment should have been recorded best song ever
2022? His song "crush" was recommended on TH-cam music and then I'm curious of where he is now that's why I decided to search his old videos here on TH-cam and this clip of him is so magnificent. ♥️🥺
THANK YOU SO MUCH,I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS PERFORMANCE SINCE 2008
2019 anyone?
he has this beautiful soulful melody everytime he sings. love him
Agreed. I remember this night like it was just last night. I kept dialing that number over again as much as I could before the results came in. And remember crying when I found out archuletas name was not called out on the card I was so sad and cried myself to bed had to have my parents comfort me .oh the good old days.
You are born to be a singer wow I love the way you sing so emotional
He was the best!
I was totally with Randy the whole time. He must have also been blown away when David A didn't win. Not that it mattered that much. He's the best perforer I've seen on AGT to this day. A decade and a half later. 😉
Beautiful voice
My favourite singer. He is talented hoping he would be joining one of the The Voice judges soon🙏🏼❤️
Megusta ❤❤🎉😮😢
Still one of my favorites
I cried so much when he lost....
Stunning. You WON in my eyes
STILL the best EVER!
please come back david... we miss you
I bet John legend was dancing when he sang imagine
When David didnt win American idol. I stopped watching it. And then came Alejandro Aranda. They are so similar in so many ways. I absolutely admire them both.
Wow you should've really watched the season after that. Adam Lambert was phenomenal!
I stopped watching after Adam Lambert didn’t win😅
every body loves david
Exitos x siempre 😮❤¡¡
I rooted for him the entire season. He should’ve won the competition.
Exitos 😮🎉❤
