The new songs are pretty good. My favorite is Wait, which ranks among David's best songs ever. It's quite different for him and has a really interesting build-up and song structure. I was expecting the new songs to be generic leftovers and some of them are but that one is really fantastic. The others are good too - Love Don't Hate has good lyrics and Notice Me is insanely catchy. Everything and More is fun but generic...probably my least favorite. All in all I'm fairly impressed - he should do more songs like Wait, which may be one of his most mature songs yet.

The new songs are awesome. My favorite is "Wait", with "Notice Me" coming in close second.
I second the request for a new album.

David's Gotta Get Through This is musically sophisticated, intelligent, soulful. This is the way forward for him, no doubt about it.

Sony Malaysia gave David his 6x platinum certification
Trying to find out for what recording...
presentation video says it's for combined CD and digital in Malaysia - combined should be 30K per Platinum so 6x is 180,000? The picture on the cert was TOSOD photo shoot.
And David got #1 overall sales from Odyssey Music (in Philippines I think) for the week of July 11-17 chrome://echofon/content/user-view.xul?screen_name=SuperBuknoy_FOD

I think it depends on which Sony offices and businesses sponsor him. He has never been to Hong Kong, China, Japan. It may depend on his sales in the various countries too. His main sponsor seemed to be Odyssey Records. This trip he visited Indonesia and Vietnam for the first time (2 concerts in Vietnam).
The Glad Christmas Tidings CD and DVD (David w/ Mormon Tabernacle Choir) are available for preorder and Deseret Books. I saw the DVD available for preorder cheaper at Walmart (info with it so I am assuming it is the same DVD). It looked to me like CD and DVD at least has the same David tracks (I saw the tracklists elsewhere).

Grats!! I am going to PA. David and 3 band members did an acoustic set at the CASBAA conference in Hong Kong as part of Fox's International Channels presentation Go here below the old live stream info and there are some videos. Many were recorded by people pointing cameras at their computers - hopefully we will get better video some day. The video picture links start at the word Setlist - just right click and open in a new tab to go to Youtube for each (or however you want to do it) archuletafanscene.com/2011/11/02/stuff-from-casbaa-live-stream-now/Nice PopCityLife buzz so far www.popcitylife.com/2011/11/david-archuleta-performs-wait-in-hong.htmlAnd there were some very nice tweets from people who had never heard him before. And around right now Channel V in Hong Kong is recording a music video for Wait. --- Also news (but the performances section of the event is only 1 hour for all of them): David Archuleta will “Make a Difference” for children battling cancer, as he joins fellow FOX’s American Idol alumni David Cook and Constantine Maroulis for a star-studded concert at Ronald McDonald House® New York on Tuesday, November 8th.

I really enjoyed David's acoustic set. I loved all the acoustic songs he did. David was also in excellent voice. He sounded so amazing. Makes me want a live acoustic album from him. Here is a great quality video of his set. The audio is great: vimeo.com/31527212

I saw David perform last Friday night at Irving Plaza. There was a nice turnout, and David sounded better than I've ever heard him before. You can see how great he is in the clips posted above. Of course he brought the house down with "Crush." I had a good time.
