She's forever our girl! Join David Archuleta as he pays tribute to the recipient of the Straight Up Ally award at the 12th Annual Queerties, Paula Abdul.
...Babe, I was 'there' for Paula, Summer 1988...and, never LEFT! ...I was there when "Knocked Out" & "It's Just The Way..." were the FIRST Singles! ...ha-HAA!
He needs to record that cover of 'Rush, Rush." An absolutely gorgeous song that deserves more play. As for "Vibeology," even Paula struggled pulling off that one live.
Love this moment dedicated to the incredible Paula Abdul by the amazing David ARCHULETA 💫💫💫👏🏼👏🏼 David should be cast on Dancing With The Stars FOR SURE!!!
Wow, David is incredible! What a fabulous singer and also dancer. He is my fave male artist/singer out there. Such a great tribute to Paula, who is wonderful. Love all around.
You must be quite old, both of you, if you met in 1853. And I don't know how you look like but Paula looks fantastic. I wish, I would just a little bit as good as her with... let's say, 71... don't have to be 171. 🤣🤣🤣
...I was a Professional DJ, and always felt David was... 'missing'...something, as a Singer...well, apparently he FOUND it, because this performance was the MOST I've ever felt him "connect" with the Song....THANKS, Lady Paula, for helping David find 'out' who he truly IS..... (1:54) ...you're *ALWAYS* , Forever Our Girl...... (3:35)
David, this performance is iconic. You exuberant so much Energy and heart throughout the performance. Paula must be thrilled. Congratulations on spectacular music bliss experience!!
What in the heck!!! David!!! This second blooming of his, like a renewed breath of life, I never thought I’d see it but gosh I love it. Congrats David, what a sweet tribute to Paula. Loved every second of it.
Paula putting all those other 80s girlies to shame. She's ageless. And David - record Rush Rush! He has an ideal pop star voice. Beautiful tone, a little rasp and so much resonance.
David kills Rush Rush! Never heard anyone else sing it before!
David seems so happy. He is beaming and sounding fantastic. 💕
I love him so much. He's such a kind and gentle soul. I wish him nothing but the very best in his life.
finally free to b herself
Take note people: Paula defines class and appeal. I've been there since 1988..we LOVE you Paula!

@RBS_ 💯 State of Attraction should have been a single. Madonna and Janet were huge but Paula and Taylor Dayne were legends (still are)
@@jartober 🙄
Same here.
"Rush Rush" is a gorgeous record. Paula rocked the late '80s, early '90s. Lovely take by David.
David needs to cover it
Rush Rush is a classic of music. Love that song!
I need a studio version of David singing Rush, Rush. I am still in love with his voice since he was on Idol.
Yes to this!!!
Yes, please
So glad he found himself
I love David!! That was truly an honor to perform Paula's classic hits
He did backing vocals on this live performance. I need him to release an EP with all these songs sung by him!! 💜 💜 💜
So great to see David being fully free finally!
Now I need a studio recording of David Archuleta cover of Paula Abdul's greatest hits ❤

I met Paula in 1853 and she still looks the same. Super happy that Mr. Archuleta's is living his authentic life.
You must be quite old, both of you, if you met in 1853. And I don't know how you look like but Paula looks fantastic. I wish, I would just a little bit as good as her with... let's say, 71... don't have to be 171. 🤣🤣🤣
@@Swissadonis - I don't look as good as she does. She's looking incredibly good for her age. Love her.
If y’all met in 1853 then you wouldn’t be alive rn 😂🤣
Wow he chose her best ones for that medley! (aka no Opposites Attract / Cold Hearted lol). Love Paula and David. Great tribute!
