Dec 2, 2008 - I've never seen any 17 year old boy singing as powerful and heartfelt as this one. He has his own styles of singing at such a young age. If he could find a universally good theme song like Imagine, Grammy would be waiting for him. Such a gifted singer.

Dec 2, 2008 - i hope no one tries to sing this song again on idol. they will get crucified, david owns this song now! actually he owns everything he sings.

Dec 2, 2008 - WTF!!! he just killed a classic song! Fukin homo!! JESUS!!!, what is happening with the music industry nowadays!!
nickyg641 Says:
Dec 2, 2008 - The problem with singers today is all of the unnecessary vocalization and warbling they tend to do. That's the issue here.
dweeper1020 Says:
Dec 2, 2008 - You don't like the "warbling", I do. Some people hate his rendition (and say so with such anger and passion and sometimes cruelty -- "fukin homo"???), and other people like myself, absolutely love it. Different tastes! I have no idea why you are so passionate in your disgust. There are bigger things happening in the world to be passionate about than how Archuletta sang this song. Oh, and I am a "homo" ... and damn proud to be one! :P

Dec 2, 2008 - Perfect. the term "homo" is offensive. watch yourself please. GREAT SONG GREAT GUY.

Dec 3, 2008 - Could not agree more. This is AWFUL.
rustyscalpel68 Says:
Dec 3, 2008 - For a 17 y/o kid to nail that song, like he did, under the spotlight, is truly extraordinary. And it tastes cajones, so take all your homo talk and stuff it. It's irrelevant.

Dec 3, 2008 - Very powerful performance, he has a really good voice! His version is alright but never as good as John's! =]

Dec 3, 2008 - david is amazing along with Brad Lebakken from the band Annasay. I discovered Annasay on itunes recently though, but they have quickly become a favorite too. Check out the Annasay song "Winter Air" if you get a chance

DaLuV78 Says:
Dec 3, 2008 - tastetheRIBOFLAVIN, i totally agree, but i hadnt heard anything about it till you mentioned it so i wondered...
DaLuV78 Says:
Dec 3, 2008 - his birthday is december 28 and last i heard he was 17 so i think hes gonna be 18
countrySTAR06 Says:
Dec 3, 2008 - hes so damn cute
countrySTAR06 Says:
Dec 3, 2008 - are you kidding me? hes like the only singer his age that doesnt do that. i use 'singer' loosely because thats hardly what taylor swift, the jonas brothers and miley cyrus or hannah montana or whoever the hell she is are. david is a true voacalist
rolliedean Says:
Dec 3, 2008 - hes a good singer, but i absolutely hate his version of this song besides the lyrics and the backing music it bears no resemblance whatsoever to the original the melody of the John Lennon is unbeatable and he completely destroyed the beauty of the song by altering the melody so drastically
Martyk300 Says:
Dec 3, 2008 - right on.
