They Still Have a “Crush” On Archuleta

David Cook may have won the “American Idol” war, but his rival David Archuleta has just won a significant chart-topping battle.
Archuleta’s “Crush” has debuted at No. 2 on the Hot 100 singles chart, besting the No. 3 opening of Cook’s “The Time of My Life” in June. Guess those little girls and older women are still fawning over the 17-year-old.
“Crush” is the biggest debut by an Idol contestant for a song never performed on the show. For more on Archie’s success, click here.

David has delivered an amazing first single to his fans, and the public. It is rhythmic, David’s superior vocals soar and are identifiable throughout, has a catchy beat.. Hey-> I watched lotsa American Bandstand back in the day
Fans like me find themselves humming along unconsciously, and the verses transport the listener back to those bygone days of school girl and schoolboy CRUSHES… It has an appeal across a very broad spectrum of listeners, and should effectively silence the detractors and critics who didn’t believe he had mainstream appeal. CRUSH is the catapult for David to continue his growth and evolution as an artist - I ANTICIPATE MANY MANY YEARS OF OUTSTANDING MUSIC FROM HIM. TAKE A BOW DAVID… YOU’VE

WELL DONE DAVID JAMES ARCHULETA - Those who were with you from the beginning knew down to our souls you were something special, and have never wavered in our belief that you are destined, as Paula told you after you sang IMAGINE, for SUPERSTARDOM… soak it all in tonight, little brother - this one is for you…
