    27

    p.s. you al REALLY NEED TO STOP BASHING HIM! SINCE WHEN HAS IT beEN OKAY TO BAsh SOMEOne BECAUSE OF THEIR SEXUAL PREFERENCE?



  28. 28

    I can imagine him being way more popular in the spanish market. I hope he does come out with a spanish album. You can see how much even the people in Austin loved it when he sang it. Start off with a cover song perhaps? See how that goes…



  29. 29

    Selena Vive!

    We miss you girl!



  30. 30

    he did great!!!

    Re: topperRe: itsAppleRe: Firehouse713 – Shit! Did they cancel happy hour down at the Ramrod? All you queens ran up in here at once!



  35. 35

    He should've won. We didn't need another rocker who has now sold out and turned adult contemp winner.



  36. 36

    that was very cool.

    Re: LoveLabels
    Re: JPCG
    Re: JCPR

    What is the BDF about him announcing that he is gay?! What difference will it matter? It really only matters to those who would pick it up and try to make something about it. (That would be you clowns) He would still be a great singer (maybe not Spanish songs so much).



  38. 38

    THE LATIN COMMUNITY LOVES DAVID ARCHULETA!! WE HOPE HE MAKES A SPANISH ALBUM SOON!!!



  39. 39

    Re: BBBoricua loves Angels & Demons…
    Have you ever seen a movie "Selena" with Jennifer Lopez? It's Senena's biography, and it's great, with all the songs.



  40. 40

    Re: da next big thing – HE IS HONDURAN AMERICAN!! HE KNOWS SPANISH BECAUSE HIS MOM IS HONDURAN AND HIS DAD IS OF SPANISH DESCENT!!

    DAVID ARCHULETA IS LATINO!!



  41. 41

    He doesn't really seem gay at all to me…I mean, if you take the stereotypical traits of gays, he doesn't really have any of them. He's just seems like a seriously nice boy. Wish they had more of those these days.

    Perez, just wondering, why do you post random videos of this guy covering other people's songs, but never anything important? Like his first single releasing, his first single going platinum, his first album releasing, his first album going gold, his tour dates releasing, all of his tour dates selling out…etc.



  42. 42

    blerg… lame!



  43. 43

    He's not gay :o )

    but he's frigging adorable haha and the boy can sing



  44. 44

    Wow! Selena?! This boy is talented. It wasn't too bad. Vive la reina del tejano!



  45. 45

    No one should touch selena songs in my opinion.



  46. 46

    awwwwwww! klove him! hes so adorable!



  47. 47

    he sounds good, nice that he's embracing his latin heritage



  48. 48

    Sorry, Mario, he doesn't want your peen.



  49. 49

    SELENA FOREVER!!! WE LOVE AND MISS YOU OUR TEJANO PRINCESS!!!!!



  50. 50

    This was sweet. I hope Selena was looking down smiling at that moment.



  51. 51

    love the song but not him



  52. 52

    Re: Veuve Clicquot – I love that movie! Jennifer Lopez did a great job as Selena!
    Selena was always smiling and had such a promising future…..
    Gone too soon…
    :(



  53. 53

    Re: oww!oww!

    I think it is awesome when others perform her songs because it just shows that people do appreciate her and her music. I really would like to see a good cover of "I Could Fall in Love" but damn her voice was so strong in that song so whoever sings it must have a strong voice or it wont sound good. Gloria Estefan did a great job singing it at Selena Vive I must admit, I was impressed!



  54. 54

    David Archuleta has an amazing voice and his personality is as an amazing….

    I just wish some of you can learn from him……:)



  55. 55

    Re: BBBoricua loves Angels & Demons…

    I agree :( people who dont understand her cultural significance are the ones who are confused as to why she is still so loved. Selena was not only the pride of the Mexican Americans but of all Latinos, she made people proud of their roots and wasnt afraid to say "Yea, I am Latina so what?" I wish she would have got the chance to finish her English album seeing as that was her dream.



  56. 56

    WOW!…I LOVE IT!…HE SOUNDS EVEN BETTER IN SPANISH!!



  57. 57

    Really wasn't a fan of David's but after seeing this, now I am!



  58. 58

    David doing something in another language. How great! He got such of nice voice, I couldn't see the video ;-(



  59. 59

    HE SOUNDS AMAZING IN SPANISH!!!!!! HE SHOULD DO A SPANISH ALBUM RIGHT NOW!!!



  60. 60

    WE LATINOS ARE VERY PROUD OF OUR FELLOW LATINO DAVID ARCHULETA!!!



  61. 61

    He wasn't even five years old when Selena was murdered and yet he knows her music. I thought he sounded terrific and I would like to hear more! It helps keep her wonderful memory alive.



  62. 62

    I was there last night!!! The crowd went CRAZEEEE when he sang this. Obviously, Selena is sacred ground here in Texas. For him to sing her song and to honor his latino heritage like that bonded him to the latinos in the audience forever. David is very very proud of his latino heritage. As many know, his mother is from Honduras and his father is half Spanish. The crowd was mostly latino, I'd say 75% at least. And they adored him. I am not latino, but I was so happy to see David embrace his heritage like this. Viva David Archuleta !!!!



  63. 63

    sweet! :)



  64. 64

    AHHH i LOVE IT! it sounded great
    i like him a little more now =D



  65. 65

    Re: CoDy A – I still remember getting home that day and watching the news of her death on TV in disbelief. Even after all these years, the pain her family (specially her mom) and many fans still feel is just unbelievable.
    Selena forever!!! :)



  66. 66

    Re: bohonk – Wow, it means a lot to hear someone that is not latino praise the pride we feel of our heritage. Muchas gracias….



  67. 67

    He's not gay. He's LDS that's against the mormon religion. I don't get why people hate on him he's a good kid. He hasn't screwed his life up like the other 99% of Hollywood.



  68. 68

    AWWWWWWWWWWWW!!! I have such a new respect for him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11



  69. 69

    De nada, bbboricua! Forgive my lame attempt at courteous Spanish. I am a Texan born and bred and still live here. And will live here forever. I love learning more about other cultures, especially those so important to my region. I'm a big Archie fan and it makes me so proud to know how proud he is of his heritage. I foresee Spanish recordings in the future. Most definitely. :)

    Re: BBBoricua loves Angels & Demons…

    I know how you feel, the day I heard the news I immediately dropped my books and burst into tears. It was so depressing



  71. 71

    awww i love this! he needs to do a full cover. i don't think any women singers out there could cover a selena song without a lot of comparisons being done. i think archuleta could do it justice.

    miss you selena!



  72. 72

    He Did A Good Job!
    People enjoyed it
    he seemed to have fun!
    And I

  73. TDOG says – reply to this


    73

    enjoyable little david should cover the song



  74. 74

    Better video I even met him!!!



  75. 75

    awwww!



  76. 76

    how fucking ADORABLE is he?



  77. 77

    Dont forget that the anniversary of her passing is coming up on March 31. As far as I am concerned Selena Q. Perez is THE one and only Selena.

    Kudos to David A. for saluting her in this way, it means much to her fans and especially her family. Especially those of us who knew of her before her passing and the movie, as there were so many expectations just on the horizons that are now forever out of reach. Many female Latina artists now owe much to her for their success.



  78. 78

    How sweet is that li'l David Archuleta! Love him.



  79. 79

    What a sweetheart! Love David!



  80. 80

    I LOVE HIM SO MUCH
    HIS SOUND IN SPANISH IS PERFECT ,INCREIBLE, AMAZING AND SEXY ;)

    ARCHIE PAPI CHULO

    I LOVE HIS NEW SONGS ZERO GRAVITY..AND A LITTLE TOO NOT OVER YOU

    I MISS SELENA ;(



  81. 81

    This AI REJECT needs to go away. His 15 min. is'nt up yet?? Oh btw Selena is so loved, especially in Texas, that anyone could have sang her song and they would go crazy. So this reject is nothing special.



  82. 82

    Re: bohonk – Your spanish is fantastico! :)



  83. 83

    Re: CoDy A – I still feel a little sad when I hear one of her songs….

  88. 88

    Re: Veuve Clicquot – Who hasn't seen that…lol. It was a huge movie. They're airing a few new specials about her life on March 31st, the 14th anniversary of her death.



  89. 89

    He did an awesome job! That would have been neat if he performed the entire song.



  90. 90

    ahhhhh, her music wasn't that great…..she only got really famous because she was killed….ughhh, and at times, I got sick of hearing about her and listening to her music….Ne who, he didn't sound so bad…=]



  91. 91

    Re: KatVonB*tch

    Bitch please, even before her death she achieved so much and was going for much more! Go and hate somewhere else, she is a legend and you will NEVER be!

    Have a nice day!
