How will Archuleta depress us next?
March 6th, 2008
David Archuleta is one of the current American Idol favorites, and he seems to be specializing in depressing ballads. Two weeks ago it was John Lennon’s “Imagine” (which Archuleta somehow thinks is a happy song… clearly it’s a lament at the impossibility of Utopia, right?) and more recently, it was Phil Collin’s “Another Day in Paradise,” which is not a song that could possibly be interpreted as happy (unless you enjoy the plight of the homeless, I suppose).
The first week of the top twelve is Beatles week, so what sad song can he do from the Lennon/McCartney songbook? Off the top of my head I can’t think of any particularly sad Beatles songs…
