um, excuse me… WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME ABOUT THIS VIDEO???!!!!
You know how much I love My Hands! 😉
Even if you think this is all hocus pocus, watch anyway… why? ‘cuz
(a) hello, he’s talking about David;
(b) he has a cool Aussie accent; and
(c) he says things like “if he can just stay off the booze and the drugs and everything” 😆 😆 😆
We know how expressive David’s hands are… he’s even used them to give us an idea of what kind of music he’ll make when he gets back:
Gosh, where do I BEGIN? … “begin,” get it?? heheh
There’ll be lots of trombones…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
And the melodies go ’round, like this… I’m pumped!
…then there’s the Tai Chi tribute…and random frogs
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
…more clues….
No socks per se… but some notes go up like this…
And, um, the CD itself will be round…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
…and finally
…and there’s kinda some dubstep/rap fusion that loops around like this…
…and builds to a crescendo of awesomeness…with LEGO
.
.

…& part of my magic is… Hawaii… so, you know, the usual.

So good to see you posting in real time my friend. Haven’t seen either video. Buried treasures!
Adore your post! You can be counted on to get at feelings we all share, and for chuckles. Love and need those chuckles in my life.
Been waiting for a post from you on April 1 actually, hehe. You guys never disappoint. Love the gifs.
Have to confess though. In the BSMS vid, I have the 1st 33 secs on repeat. That alone made my day! I keep on giggling at work and am getting that curious stare again from my staff lol-lol-lol
Belated Happy Easter & April Fool’s Day SnowAngelzz!
OH, if you like an MP4 of the BSMS before MOTAB, you can DL from here – http://www.mediafire.com/?8u5umm5af6dku
thx. JR!!!
Oh, forgot about the “hands” video. Did see that, just one of many little things that surfaced this past month I guess! Thought it was quite interesting, using a picture of David’s hand, ha.
Then again, who wouldn’t want to study those hands? 🙂
Have to say, that gorgeous video of BSMS is a very special treasure, so sweet, so beautiful. ❤ Geesh, so much popping up in D's absence, all part of the plan I guess. Pretty nice.
Love all of this TOfan,… and the captions are too funny!
"…and builds to a crescendo of awesomeness…with LEGO" LOL to that and to all of them.
I also missed your real time posts! WELCOME BACK!! You always me at least smile and very often laugh…and I LOVE to laugh. 😀
Giggle, giggle, giggle, chuckle, chuckle, laugh out loud!!!!! I’m so glad you’re back!
So glad you’re back, GIF Girl! You speak ASL (Archuleta Sign Language) perfectly. Too funny!
“FANBOY’D IN FRONT OF MOTAB” Love that; yes, he did! And didn’t it just warm your heart and make you smile and miss him even more and then just kind of melt when he sang?
About the 6th time through, I managed to look away from David and watch the crowd. By the end of the 3rd verse, I saw a few peeps dabbing their eyes. Or maybe that was just me.
I love your brain. So funny.
oooo, I need to see that… thanks for giving me an excuse to watch it again, Geez! 😆
“didn’t it just warm your heart and make you smile and miss him even more and then just kind of melt when he sang?” exactly that! *sigh*
Well, hocus pocus or not Dear Tony got it “spot on”. Save for the ego word – I’d call it Inner Strength, lol
BSMS – Nothing fancy about it – not showing off – straight up and simply beautiful and from his heart. I miss the singing BUT I miss DAVID even more – those first 35 seconds is why for sure.
So nice to have you back Tofan!!
TOfan forgot to say I LOVE the just ‘cuz pic up top!
oh my heck…. his HANDS!!! love the way they speak….
Thanks for the hand gifs. It’s like he doesn’t think he can make himself understood with just speech, the way he does with music, so he uses sign language too. Sometimes what he says doesn’t even coincide with what he is signing, except in his own mind. LOL. He is so fun. 🙂
Too true, he is so fun! 🙂
Nice write up in The Hollywood Reporter about NMHF (and I didn’t realize BEGIN. charted as high as 28! awesome!):
“RETURN OF THE RUNNERS-UP: Two American Idol contestants who both finished in second place reappear on The Billboard 200 album chart this week, one from season seven and one from season nine. If you know your Idol — and since you’re reading this column, we’re betting you do — you know we’re talking about David Archuleta and Crystal Bowersox….
“Joining Bowersox on The Billboard 200 is the man on a mission. Archuleta began a two-year mission for the Mormon church one year ago. Halfway through that assignment, he debuts on the album chart with his second album since leaving for South America. No Matter How Far, which combines newly recorded material with tracks previously unreleased in the U.S., is new at No. 110. It follows by eight months an album titled Begin., which peaked at No. 28.
“No Matter How Far is the fifth solo album by Archuleta to chart. He’s had one album chart in every year since he made his first appearance on the Billboard tallies in 2008. His run began with a self-titled set which, like Bowersox’s debut, was issued on Jive. David Archuleta peaked at No. 2 on The Billboard 200 and yielded a single, “Crush,” which coincidentally peaked at No. 2, on the Hot 100.”
