David Archuleta Has a Crush

David Archuleta who came to fame from the seventh season of American Idol released his first single from his self-titled debut album entitled “Crush”. This is song fits the teenager who was runner up on the infamous reality television show. It is upbeat and perfect for his teenage crowd. It is a very simple song and beautifully written. The only problem I have with “Crush” is that the video makes Archuleta look goofy. For some reason someone decided to cut his hair short which doesn’t work for him. His nose and mouth seem to take up most of his face while his eyes are not seen. His hair sticks up on the top and cut very short on the sides. He just looks funny. Maybe a lot of teenage girls will think he looks cute this way but he looked better on the show.
“Crush” has already hit number two on the billboard top 100. It was released in late September and I think it will continue great success for the 18 year old. He’s got a great voice that make just about any song sound good. He just can’t look goofy. People won’t watch him perform a song if he looks like he is still going through puberty. David will gain many fans from the radio and until he grows his hair out he should stay out of view of the public.
