Summary:Teen pop star and American Idol runner-up, David Archuleta is growing up as a performer with his second album, released just before his 20th birthday.
His vocals still gleam with so much dewy naivete that the music never succumbs to the bitterness it seems to circle. Maybe state-fair meet-and-greets are what the kid was born to do?
This is a middle-of-the-road pop album pure and simple, arriving perhaps two years too late but it nevertheless proves that Archuleta has the chops to fill the space between commercials on the airwaves.
