David Archuleta [on his controversial father]: He's given me a lot of good advice and helped me from making any dumb decisions. He understands more than anyone what I want in music, and I've felt really blessed to have someone like that.

David Archuleta is a contestant on the seventh season of American Idol that should receive plenty of sympathy votes: he suffered from vocal chord paralysis as a child. But the crooner also won Star Search at the age of 12, causing some to wonder if he's overqualified for American Idol.
He performed an awe-inspiring rendition of the classic song "Imagine" during the show's top 20 week. It made Paula Abdul cry.
