Not very unique for an artist as unique as David. Just another piece of extremely well produced commercial pap that says nothing about David as an artist. Although, I wouldn't be surprised to see it as a contemporary dance routine on next week's SYTYCD finale.

Well, I AM a David Archuleta fan, but I'm one of the older fans he worried would not like his 'popish' single.
I love it. I think most of us can relate to that feeling, and it's sort of fun to think of those times. It's also nice to hear a 17 year old sing age-appropriate lyrics. Very nice.

That's it?
No vocal challenge?
The song is nice. No challenge, no originality there. Just nice song. Anybody can sing it.

David's first single "Crush" is really great!
It is young, has a great beat and can be enjoyed by all tween, teens, young adults, adults and mature audiances.
David, you are headed for stardom

On my gosh!!! This is hot!! And it's only the beginning. I feel confident his new CD will have some sentimental ballads like so many have criticized and some that will rip your heart out (if you've got one). I am hooked and can not imagine what David has in store for us. This "CRUSH" is never going away.. yeah, yeah, yeah.

David totally elevates this material. Repeated listening reveals a beautifully nuanced interpretation. A universal theme, with broad appeal, delivered with heart by a tremendous talent. I love it!

Crush is absolutely a fantastic first release for David. It appeals to his very diverse fan base, is a mixture of Pop and R&B and allows him to showcase his (yet to be fully fathomed) vocal talent in parts. It will allow him to be embraced on the TOP 40 radio waves.
His coming CD in November will allow him the opportunity to more fully showcase his voice. The voice that has captured a huge and rapidly growing fan base.
CRUSH - love it!

David, you have arrived. Fantastic debut song! Can't wait to hear the album....
Posted by: doorsfan | August 02, 2008 at 07:07 AM
Well, shoot, James. Anyone can sing any song. But few can sing a song well enough to get people to want to BUY the song for multiple re-listens. I believe that David Archuleta has accomplished the second of these feats.
