twitter.com/JiveMusicWatch David Archuleta perform his new single, "Touch My Hand," on American Idol 2nite! 9PM EST on FOX7 minutes ago from web It's a tweet from Jive so I think this is a good enough confirmation that this would be a single right?

This isn't gonna do a thing on Pop. Could see it doing well on AC/HAC.

The only other song I like from the album. I think it'll flop though.

I don't know if this is actually going for CHR adds. They might just be using it as a promotional single and/or releasing it internationally.

Was still wanting Angels, but I'm glad they went with one of the hands songs. I really think they should've went with this for the second single to follow Crush's success.

This would have done very well had it been released right after "Crush."

CHR adds date or significant airplay is usually the requirement for threads here, confirmed singles or not. Hmmm.... I thought once a credible source (like the label) confirms it or there's an adds date then it's ok...? Or at least that's the rule I know of before. Didn't know it changed. I know it's usually the label that is considered more credible than say the artist (because sometimes they don't even know what's being released). And I mean there were songs that got significant airplay but were never really singles. ETA: I don't care really so Haley - it's your choice. :)

^LOL, that's always a sketchy topic here cause I know sometimes threads still got locked even with label confirmation (like Please Don't Leave Me by Pink I think and Circus too). But then there are some that stay open too. Idk. But, I'm not totally convinced this song is going for pop adds yet.

Besides, it will be only Cook x David bulls**t until the song starts to actually have any spin. This should be closed until the song is top 50.

This song along with "Desperate" are my favorites on his album. I see it doing pretty well with his target audience.

BTW - a fan replaced the album track audio in the TMH video with AOL Sessions audio and it has a somewhat more live sound that way: www.youtube.com/watch?v=kq2TvrNe_6QAnd the AOL Sessions audio is now available as a 5-song EP on iTunes and Amazon MP3. Currently #8 in iTunes Pop Albums.

I'll keep this open considering he is going to be promoting the song already on idol. If any other unrelated idol discussion is brought up, including other contestants or info that isn't about the song, the thread will be locked

Let's just hope ALTNOY hasn't done too much damage. What a waste of 5 months that was.

Actually it's probably smarter to perform this before the radio adds date (assuming it gets one), so it'll at least have some buzz to start off with. I don't think it would've done anything a few weeks ago all by itself, right off of ALTNOY. Besides, there are a lot of songs that go high on iTunes off of Idol with pretty much no airplay.

No, I agree the vocals were not the best. I'm talking about performance wise.
