The Burt Bacharach Discussion Forum

Came across a video David Archuleta currently on American Idol. Here is video of him singing A House Is Not a Home on Star Search back in 2004.

Pretty good performance, would like to see him get another crack at it on Idol this year at age 17.

Looks like he has a nice future ahead of him in singing.

I liked becoming aware of this, but the guy seems to be too much in the business of rewriting songs...
That Paula Abdul thing of "making it your own" can be madening when the one doing it isn't Aretha Franklin, Issac Hayes or maybe Luther Vandross.
