I think Elevator actually has a really infectious chorus, it's been in my head all day. But I think the vocals are too high and the production doesn't hit quite hard enough which stops me from thinking it'll be a hit. I think it could maybe be a HAC hit with some CHR airplay if it does well enough on that format. Eh whatever. We'll see. Like I said I don't trust Jive with getting him a radio hit anymore.

nm - someone added the easy to listen to Youtube clip above.
If you want to watch the whole video interview at the official site or elsewhere and have a problem loading the video, then first go to Truveo.com and watch any random video and the necessary web objects will load into your browser.
The full video is where David talks about the meanings of TOSOD and Elevator, the probably cause of his elevators dream (looking for new management lol) and how each were written.

The Other Side of Down sounds really nice. My hopes for the album are renewed. I love the way he sings on the chorus.

Love it! The chorus is awesome -- the absolute best part and where the song really seems to take off. Hurry, hurry Oct. 5!!!

Best Behavior was another one. If I Could Only Be also.
But both are just live performances.
also David says the next song is Elevator:

Someone asked about these on Yahoo Answers - they must be ones we heard about being written Sooner Or Later Falling Up (I think he meant Falling Awake)
And both David and Eman said She's Not You was written for the first album.
BTW David said he worked on about 50 songs, but some were just trying out ideas. There are likely plenty we never even heard of that didn't make the album.
On ASCAP w/ David as co-writer are these songs we never heard:
ALL THE TIME BEAUTIFUL DISTRACTION FALL DOWN LAST THING (IF ONLY), THE NORTHERN LIGHTS
----- (Toad is a keyboard player)
mikekmusic: For those who don't know, my buddy Toad from the All American Rejects will be playing with David Archuleta and I in the new band next week.
toadonkeys: @mikekmusic speak for u'rself Mr. Krompass...like fine wine, I get better looking with time...haha!! This is gonna be a blast Buddy!!
toadonkeys: @mikekmusic Speaking of cheese, I say we learn Richard Marx entire catalog and surprise David by opening with Don't Mean Nothing.
-------
Elevator released to radio yesterday?

I hope the full version of Other Side of Down leaks soon. I'm not really satisfied with Elevator.

atgs - it was after that first radio station that Mike said he was re-mixing it or something? Here's what Mike said back then:
Finishing touches on the next @davidarchie single today, off to Vancouver Tonight. All finished with Elevator mixes!!!!!! :) sounds great. It's very different and what you heard was a horrible mp3
Delta Fair - unclear from tweets but I think David sang ALNOY SBL My Hands Elevator TMH SOT Crush God Bless America

I think Elevator could benefit from a little bit more production. The clip we heard sounds a little demo ish.

How much do you think he's gonna sell? I speculate that he'll do 30k easily and he's gonna have sold over 100k by the end of the year. That is great for a has-been recording artist like him. Obviously, I'm not buying the album, but I would totally buy a sensational Dvd, if he'd do one!!

Maybe it's just me, but lately it has felt like has been having breathing problems during songs. I feel it in Elevator, also in TAGGB, now in this one... Has he been sick?
and yes, he has the soul.

atgs - I'm hoping he just isn't used to where good breathing breaks are in the new songs. He was amazing on acoustic My Hands.
---- And I guess maybe this will be the setlist for York PA and other longer events with the band? (sniff - no PANDA :'( and ALTNOY? I'd prefer any one of MY Hands, YEDL, DLG, WFY, Barriers)

Thanks to the fans and their input, here is the setlist David came up with! Check it out and see if your picks made the cut!

It sounds more like a filler to me. The chorus seemed more interesting but then it was over... lol need more than 30 seconds. OSOTD is the one I'm more interested so far. Thta clip was so great.

It's hard to pit them against each other with 30 second clips. I don't get a filler vibe at all from this though. Actually, this one possibly sounds more single worthy to me than OSOD although I LOVED that one.
