Archie Debuts Huge!

As I promised you, David Archuleta had a huge debut on the Billboard Hot 100 with his first single, “Crush”…

“Crush” debuts at #2 after selling 166,000 downloads. It’s the best chart debut in more than 18 months and it’s the best debut by an “Idol” finalist with a song not performed on the show.

So what song was barely able to fend Archie off? Rihanna’s “Disturbia.”

If you still haven’t heard the song yet—and shame on any top 40 radio station that isn’t playing it for you—you can hear it here.

And you know I’m a Cook fan, but this song is GOOD…
