little baby steps - maybe the best way to go eh? my first post. yay :P and to open, i picked a rather unlikely pair combining efforts on tour. i'll find my words at some point i'm sure, but for now, let me just announce the joint tour of David Archuleta (we know him here from American Idol, yes?) and Irish rocker Lesley Roy - described as a cross between Avril Lavigne and Mellissa Etheridge!!! i hear a lot more Etheridge than Lavigne though! Lesley will be opening for David's first Solo Tour starting feb 24th 09! somehow, this combo tickles my fancy :) have a looksie! :) recon it'd be a good concert? i recon so!
first, a sampling of David. some lesser known tunes: (i picked for variety - which was WAY easy coz this boy offers a surprising range! bear in mind he was 17 when he recorded his debut album, while touring, and doing school!)
angels
a little too not over you
somebody out there
my hands
running
works for me
to be with you
i'll be (a capella)
and now.. to miss Lesley Roy!
unbeautiful
where the streets have no name
i'm gone, i'm going
this one is sadly "embedding disabled by request" - everywhere! so here's the link:

psycho bitch
thinking out loud
come to your senses
crushed (yup! Archuleta's most well known song thus far also happens to be Crush! :) here's the link for kicks lol - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yff9nCctMkg )
slow goodbye
they're both signed by Jive, which of course makes the teaming up clear in that sense, 'n i give Jive kudos for what i think will be a very nice merging! so whats the verdict then? bound to be a good set of concerts? i say yes. what say u? :)

Hey Anushka :)
ReplyDeleteyeah i knew that david wrote this when he was 14. i dont know if the person who committed suicide was 14 - most likely not. it was a friend of a friend of the family. i cant remember exactly where i read it but the source was reliable. thx for stopping by! :)
