"For those of you who don&amp;#039;t find yourselves on ITV2 very often, here&amp;#039;s a handy summary. David Archuleta, a fresh-faced 18-year-old from Utah, finished second on the last season of American Idol. He&amp;#039;s roughly as threatening as Zac Efron in a Big Bird costume. Oh, and his rendition of &amp;#039;Angels&amp;#039; proved so popular with Idol viewers that he recorded it for his album. Not unsurprisingly, his debut single is neither a bolshy rock anthem nor a frantic club banger. &amp;#039;Crush&amp;#039; is a well-crafted midtempo pop song with teen romance lyrics and a radio-friendly chorus that seems to get better with every spin. Archuleta, meanwhile, acquits himself admirably, showing off a nifty falsetto and a similar brand of easy charm to fellow Idol alumnus Jordin Sparks. The result? Well, &amp;quot;safe, solid and likeable&amp;quot; pretty much nails it.  &amp;gt; Click here to watch the &amp;#039;Crush&amp;#039; video "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
