Biography

With budding maturity, David Archuleta captures two years’ worth of introspection and reflection, dozens of songwriting sessions, long days spent in the studio and nights in the air, all leading to The Other Side of Down, his highly anticipated second album.

Not only the follow up to David’s 2008 self-titled debut, it’s a reintroduction to the American Idol runner-up ... Read more in Amazon's David Archuleta Store

Editorial Reviews

Fans everywhere are anticipating the new release from vocal pop sensation David Archuleta. The new album, BEGIN., is packed with some of modern music's most moving songs. David's powerful vocals transform hit tunes including Bridge Over Troubled Water by Simon and Garfunkel, Angel by Sarah McLachlan, and True Colors by Cyndi Lauper. These songs, together with a selection of upbeat melodies such as Pride (In the Name of Love) by U2 and a completely original, never-before-heard song written by David, make this album truly unique.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally - the David we know and love. August 14, 2012
Format:Audio CD
Just purchased this album and I already love it. It is so refreshing to hear David's vocal ability again instead of all of the fluff that is so common in todays albums. They encompass everything but the artist's voice. When David was on American Idol, what I fell in love with was his voice. His ability to take a song and make it his own and use his vocals to just reach in and grab your heart and take it on an emotional journey. This album brings me back to those days. Yet there is a certain maturity to his voice as well. David is so talented and I am grateful to be able to experience his music with him.

I love the variety of the covers on this album- everything from Christina Aguilera to U2! I also LOVE his original track, Broken- can't get it out of my head.

5.0 out of 5 stars Music At It's Best August 23, 2012
By flash
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I ordered 3 of the BEGIN CD as soon as it was available for pre-order. David Archuleta's vocals on these carefully selected songs are the reason he has such loyal fans. He NEVER disappoints us. Each song is a testament to how David views the power of music. I am in awe of his talent. My favorites are "Don't Give Up", "Angel", and the original "Broken". David wanted to leave music for his fans while he was away on his 2 year mission, but he did more than that. He left us all a piece of his heart and soul in "BEGIN". #DA2014

I like David Archuleta's music. "Begin" at first seemed so heavily weighted with ballads, that I tended to nod out. But as I spin it more, David's magic weaves its spell. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars I love David Archuletta!!
David Archuletta has a beautiful voice, and as these songs are all rather "slow" songs you can hear his beautiful voice clearly! :-)
