Rihanna challenged by Idol Archuleta

21st August 2008

posted in Hollywood News |

Rihanna maintained the hold of top position on US pop charts, despite Idol runner-up David Archuleta giving her a strong challenge.

David Archuleta may have lost to become the runner up at the American Idol but his new single Crush has sky rocketed to second position after 166,000 downloads in the first week.

But David’s Crush couldn’t crush Rihanna’s Disturbia.

Well we hope that it remains at the top for two more weeks.

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

His fans like me find themselves humming along unconsciously, as the verses are relatable, transporting 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.

Archuleta is the superman of vocal gymnastics. Clark Kent-ish when he speaks, and Superman when he sings… This young man is on a path to Superstardom.
