In all the talk about Kris Allen and Adam Lambert, the most recent American Idol finalists, David Archuleta sent a powerful message this month:
Don't forget about me!
The 18-year old season seven runner-up belted out "America the Beautiful" prior to yesterday's matches at the U.S. Open. He was accompanied by United States Marine Corps, 6th Communications Battalion.
Following his rendition, the adorable singer Tweeted:
“Got done singing ‘America the Beautiful!’ So neat especially with the marines! Gonna watch some of the game now! Feeling really tired for some reason, but what a great day! Thanks so much you guys for watching tonight and your comments!
Impressive as always, David Archuleta entertained tennis fans over the weekend.

No way anyone will forget Archuleta... my money is on him still being relevant and a force in the industry much longer than Allen, or Lambert... the guy has the total package - youth, good looks, loads of talent, likeability and appeal across all demographics. Another marvelous performance from David.

David's voice soared in that stadium last night leaving no doubt in the spectators or tv viewers minds that this man can sing. He is superb at putting such emotion into his performances. Outstanding! Bravo! Encore!
