David Archuleta Makes Successful American Idol Return

With two contestants getting the boot on Wednesday’s elimination show of American Idol, there wasn’t too much time for pleasantries. The judges told each castoff that “this is only the beginning”. As cliché as that line may sound, they got living proof of it in the form of Idol runner up David Archuleta. The young David proved that the journey doesn’t end if you don’t win and that being the so-called frontrunner week after week doesn’t really guarantee that you will win the whole thing. David, as the latest Idol alum to return to the Idol stage, performed ‘Touch My Hand’.
