The Other Side of David

I was cruising through a music store today. I hadn't intended to buy anything, but then I spotted that infectious, almost child-like smile on the front cover of an album.

David Archuleta.

I grabbed the album and stared at his innocent face. I joked about him once that whenever David turns un-cute, I'll stop listening to him, HAHA. That's a really horrible joke because it's so mean, but I'm wrong on that fact. David could never be cuter in his life than now. He won't stop being gorgeous, nice, polite, incredibly normal or goofy.

At that point, I didn't even bother to look at the price. Usually, those kind of numbers would make my eyebrows fly up to Mount Everest, but today I felt that nothing's gonna stop me from buying that album. And so I did. The first thing I did after I went home was popping the cd into my stereo. I closed my eyes, lay on my bed and just listen to David's amazing voice.

Flashes of David Images came into my head. That smile. Everyone could look at his smile and they would feel instantly better than before. He spreads love through his music and just by being who he is. And it's weird that I would pay for his album even though I would love to have other albums from other musicians. Cause of lack of money, I can't afford to buy all of them but I chose to support David and buy his record. Maybe it's because I don't have the heart to illegally download his songs in the internet :P

I'm re-spinning his record for the third time now. His music speaks to me and I can't help but to oblige and reply (:

Elevator goes up
Elevator comes down
And you just go with the flow
Until your feet are back on the ground
It's an endless ride
Sometimes it takes you up
Sometimes it tears you down inside
But it's the butterflies
That keep you feeling so alive, so alive
You gotta get back that high
