It looks like the Season 7 Miss American Idol 1st Runner Up, David Archuleta, made a big mistake by naming his second album The Other Side Of Down. The album was just released and after debuting at #13 last week on the Billboard Album chart it has dropped DOWN DOWN DOWN all the way to #71 this week. It's a real shame that the audience is not connecting with this very talented young man. The songs are very catchy and he has great vocals.
Meanwhile, after 50 weeks on the chart the latest album, Play On, by the Supreme Miss American Idol, Season 4 winner, Carrie Underwood is still hanging in there ahead of David at #65 this week.
Also, after 8 weeks on the chart the latest album, Back To Me, by the Season 3 Miss American Idol winner, Fantasia is going strong at #36 this week.

New music, TV and videos!
The Season 7 Miss American Idol 1st Runner Up, David Archuleta, released his 2nd full album of music on October 5th called The Other Side of Down. The 1st single, Something 'Bout Love, has been out for a few weeks now but it has failed to generate much sales and airplay even though it is a very fun and catchy dance pop song. It's a shame. Next week we'll see how well he does on the album chart....
On the Billboard HOT 100 singles chart, the Season 8 Miss American Idol 1st Runner Up, Adam Lambert reaches a new peak position of #30 with his awesome high energy hit If I Had You. Also, The Season 5 Miss American Idol 3rd Runner Up, Chris Daughtry also reaches a new peak position of #40 with his latest single, September.
Just as predicted after seeing her in concert, The Supreme Miss American Idol, Season 4 winner Carrie Underwood, has filmed the video for her latest single, Mama's Song, and it depicts her real life mother looking through a scrapbook of memories after Carrie's wedding to hockey player Mike Fisher. Let's hope the lyrics to the song ring true and Carrie has really found the man who her mother can be assured is "good and treats your little girl like a real man should".
The 2nd season of the reality show starring the Season 3 Miss American Idol winner, Fantasia, has started on VH1. The good news is that Fantasia has kicked her brothers out of her house and her mother has gotten a place of her own. It's a step in the right direction for Fantasia to start taking better care of herself and her daughter. She's also got to be able to focus on finishing her latest album and getting to promoting it and getting the video filmed. It's a lot of fun seeing all the behind the scenes action leading up to its release.
Finally, it is official that the new judges panel for Season 10 will be Jennifer Lopez, Steven Tyler and Randy Jackson. It doesn't really matter who the judges are as long as we get some talented and interesting finalists. Last year's group was so bland and boring the show can only go up from here....
