According to Fans Of David, David Archuleta is set to release a new song.

He’s partnering with the company Build-A-Bear Workshop to help fund charitable causes.   He’ll be the first of several musical artists to release a song called “Let’s Talk About Love.”

All store managers received an email that gave the following (paraphrased) information…

Build-a-Bear have given away more than $20 million-with-an-M to charitable organizations, including those that support families, children and animals.   This year, they are going to release their own song, recorded over the year by several recording artists.   The song is entitled à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“Letà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s Talk About Love.à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ 

The first such ARTIST to record and release à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“Letà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s Talk About Loveà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  isà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦.drumrollà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦..David Archuleta!!

I have confirmed that this will occur, although the song may or may not have been recorded yet.

New music in the near future from David, who is coincidentally, cute as a teddy bear himself.

Also, DoSomething.org is auctioning off an opportunity to meet David and attend an intimate performance in New York City on January 12. DoSomething.org was started by actor Andrew Shue to benefit various youth organizations.

More information right HERE. The high bid this morning is over $2,000!

    Lightbulb in my head – Build a Bear should do the song as a soundchip that you insert into the bears. I would so love to present my daughter with a singing Archie-bear!

  • spencer

    ^^^What a great idea -) I want one too!!!

  • JudyOhio

    A perfect match! Archuleta’s voice in a little stuffed bear, lol. I can see his voice sellling tons of teddy bears! How adorable!

    who is coincidentally, cute as a teddy bear himself.

    hee hee! :laugh_tb: so true.

    So happy I have young children that I can use as a cover for my own curiosity.

  • spencer

    Cruzceleste: I would be more than happy to send you one. I happen to work in Manhattan not too far from a Build-A-Bear Workshop store. We can coordinate once things are in motion.

  • JudyOhio

    ^^^ LOL lefty. I think many will be doing just that!!

    Curious, will DA get paid for this (as per bear or something) or is he lending his voice as a charitable contribution?

    You, as today have become my favorite person in the world :wub_tb: … Thank you so much… wonder how I can contact you…

    I ´m guessing all will go to charity, but I don ´t really know how this things work!!!

  • yaminacookie

    Before everyone gets too excited – Build A Bear actually sells CDs (and also gives them away at parties) – the article doesn’t indicate whether it will be a teddy bear chip – but, boy, it should be.

  • Kona

    I see a new teddy bear in my future. Wow, $2,000 for the DoSomething.org auction. David’s got some rich fans.

  • spencer

    cruzceleste: happy to help out! Hmmm.. what’s the best way to communicate… I don’t mind giving you my email address …is it ok to post it here? (don’t know if there are any rules about posting personal info)

  • http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/profile.php?id=587900002&ref=name cruzceleste

    MMM… do you have a facebook… you can click in my username it will take you to my account, we can comunicate that way… If is not I also have a myspace or hi5 account… so you don ´t have to break MJ ´s rules, just in case, I don ´t want to cause any trouble to you or her…

    cruzceleste: happy to help out! Hmmm.. whatà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s the best way to communicateà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦ I donà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t mind giving you my email address à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦is it ok to post it here? (donà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t know if there are any rules about posting personal info)

    It’s probably not a good idea to do that. But, in the past, MJ has been willing to exchange e-mails for people. If one of you send an e-mail to her, she can check with the other if it’s okay to foward your e-mail (or you can both e-mail her). Hope that suggestion is okay with you, MJ.

    Hope that suggestion is okay with you, MJ.

    That’s fine.

    If it’s your personal email, you don’t want to post it in an open forum. Secondly, you’ll be inviting tons of spam if you post it here.

    If it is a singing teddy bear, then every girl will want one to serenade them to sleep every night. Build-a-Bear will have even more sales if they also offer cute little Archie clothes to dress the teddy bears with. You know, like his signature leather jackets or scarves or maybe even church slacks! Wouldn’t that be awesome. It would be so adorable!

  • tinawina

    There is something unbelievably hilarious about Archie’s voice inside a singing teddy bear. Too many jokes are in my head right now. I.Can’t.Take.It!

    But it’s excellent promotion. If they do put it in a bear, they’ll sell tons of those things.

  • lefty

    You know, like his signature leather jackets or scarves or maybe even church slacks! Wouldnà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t that be awesome. It would be so adorable!

    Oh … the church slacks! Yay for forgotten Archie-isms! :lol_tb:

    Too bad they can’t somehow create a wig of some kind. It’s just not Archie without the hair.

  • spencer

    crruzceleste: just sent you a friend request on Facebook. Thanks, MJ!!

  • http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/profile.php?id=587900002&ref=name cruzceleste

    ^Great, Thank you… I will add you when I get home at night, for some weird reason at my work they blocked facebook… I don ´t know why? ;D…

    Thank you again…

  • JudyOhio

    How about a vest with white shirt underneath OR a pullover with the scarf done the way he ties it (like at the Jingle Jam things) OR the black suit top with sequins on the lapels like in the AI7 tour. Let’s see, a couple of wrist bands, shoes with laces untied (or tied in whatver way he did em, different as I recall). lol, hey, just playing around with dressing the bear ideas, kind of fun.

  • http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/profile.php?id=587900002&ref=name cruzceleste

    OR the black suit top with sequins on the lapels like in the AI7 tour.

    Yes, I want mine with the Tour suit … lol

    shoes with laces untied (or tied in whatver way he did em, different as I recall).

    It was with out laces….

    Aw, it’s to high.

    I think I can get an Archie bear. lol

    I want mine to be the Atlanta JB concert Archie Bear.

  • KathyH

    If this is a bear with a soundchip of David singing inside, I want one. Think it’d go over if I asked for one for Mother’s Day this year? :ponder_tb:

  • frogcooke

    lol Kathy!

  • lefty

    Of course, at Build-a-Bear they have all kinds of animals to choose from. I shudder to think that someone might end up with a pink poodle that sings like David.

  • frogcooke

    i want a david singing panda… lol

  • http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/profile.php?id=587900002&ref=name cruzceleste

    ^I want a Koala…

    Current bid: US $2,450.00

  • khomphuong

    David Archuleta is a nice kid??? i prove you wrong… Read this

  • frogcooke

    lol I saw that… lol

  • lefty

    ^^^ they also have a super cute monkey, but my kids have it already. dangit.

    It’s the closest thing they have to a monchichi.

  • frogcooke

    lol monchichi singing david.. lol

  • lefty

    frogcooke, if someone marketed THAT … well, watch out! There would be a monchichi revival of epic proportions.

    New info from fansofdavid.com:

    More info on à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“Letà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s Talk About Love.à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  The song will be released to radio! YAY! More info is possible next week.

    To be clear, we do not know EXACTLY what will become of this song. Will it be for sale? My guess is à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“yesà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  as this is for charity. On iTunes? Donà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t know. Is it a remake of the Celine Dion song of the same title? I donà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t know that either.

  • frogcooke

    lol well it will be interesting. I just wanna hear the song.

  • IGetCranked

    More info on à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“Letà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s Talk About Love.à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  The song will be released to radio!

    I’m hoping that this song is a collaboration with other artists if it is released to radio because it is not a good idea for David to have two songs on radio right now. I can’t imagine Jive would allow anything that would hinder altnoy to happen though.

  • http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/profile.php?id=587900002&ref=name cruzceleste

    well, watch out! There would be a monchichi revival of epic proportions.

    Thats a scary though…..lol

    Ià ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢m hoping that this song is a collaboration with other artists if it is released to radio because it is not a good idea for David to have two songs on radio right now. I canà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t imagine Jive would allow anything that would hinder altnoy to happen though.

    What you said it ´s make sense, but if it is the same song and it will be recording in different versions by different artist it don ´t sounds very logical to me to released it to the radio… and maybe it won ´t be realiesed until later… right now I will like to wait for and official confirmation before I panic about it…

  • hermy

    I would so buy that bear lol. That’s cool that it could be on radio! I’m wondering, do build a bear have other songs? I’m sort of expecting something really cheesy that I will probably listen to forever lol.

    It seem like Archie will be the cover for Square Magazine in UTAH… photo here

    Page for the magazine here and source for the photo here

    thanks to the snarkyarchies.com

    PS.
    LK08 I really hope you can get a issue and scan … prety please…

  • LK09

    Cruz- I will do my best. Funny thing is that I was just able to get the Life Story magazine recently because someone had an extra one. David things can be so hard to come by around here. I will go scouting as soon as it is out.

  • http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/profile.php?id=587900002&ref=name cruzceleste

    ^Thank you :D

  • serenade

    It seems like so many artists have more than one song on radio right now (Beyonce probably has four) but this isn’t the same thing at all since it isn’t an album track. Sounds a little confusing but I still really want to hear this song now.

  • Jabkmc

    Cruz – pretty good article here in the Square online magazine.

    http://www.thesquarelife.com/articles/just-david?intcmp=ssfeature1

    That was such a beautiful article. It’s so good to see that all his fame has not enlarged his head at all in the slightest. He is so well grounded. As Randy said, he is mature beyond his years, but in more than just his singing talent. Thanks for the article, Jab.

  • http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/profile.php?id=587900002&ref=name cruzceleste

    ^Thats a great article, the story about his phone was really fun and is shows really how nice and grounded he is… here is hoping he always stay that way…The photos are really good…

    Thankyou Jab…

  • JudyOhio

    Very nice article….a nice, casual, informative interview….thanks!

  • http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/profile.php?id=587900002&ref=name cruzceleste

    And more photos from the photoshoot of the magazine… we can said one thing for sure, he is pretty and has really amazing eyes…

  • KathyH

    What an insightful article — and kudos to the writer for avoiding every one of the now-cliche’d ‘have you ever’ questions. This one is a must-read, I think, for David Archuleta fans.

  • Jabkmc

    Cruz – Shi…..ooooot! Wah?! He is 18, right? Thanks for the additional photos. I think. Guh!

    KH – I’ve read the article about 5 times. One of the best I’ve read. I agree. It’s so nice to not have the same old questions, “Have you had your first kiss yet?” “Are you dating?”, etc. ad nauseum.

    Baby, your a Stah!
