Remember when Justin Bieber filled in for an absent Chris Brown to duet with Jordin Sparks on their smash hit “No Air”? Remember how much your ears hurt afterward? Well, we’re not trying to start a rivalry or anything like that, but, uh, take notes JB.
David Archuleta stepped in for Breezy to perform “No Air” with Jordin Sparks today (February 3) at the Jordin Sparks Experience event in Miami, Florida, and showed everyone how it should be done.
The performance was clearly a bit unrehearsed, but Archie was still ready. His powerful voice soared over his verse and blended perfectly with Jordin’s. And unlike Bieber, he felt no need to overdo it or try to out-sing Jordin. OUCH! Sorry…flashback.
Check out the performance above, and if you’re feeling lucky, click here for JB’s version to compare.





























Amazing!! I knew they would sound great together. :D
It is amazing. They need to do a studio duet!
omgosh!! I loved it and they have to do this or another duet again!! DANG SMOKIN!
who is Justin Bieber?
Thanks for posting. These two are amaaaazing together! Please Jive, more
of this!!!
I love them, they sound great together! David and Jordin need to collaborate/duet a brand new song right now! Just too adorable!!
OMG! what a greeeat!! Duet. Their voices are purfect together. Jive please take note for Davey’s next album hint hint..and JB can’t touch David Archuleta’s talent with a 100 foot pole :D
David Archuleta is all class, and would never try to outshine his host/hostess. Jordin and David sound so great together – I hope we hear more of them together in the future.

Awesome! Thanks for posting! And the whole event was wonderful – Starkey Hearing Foundation provided and fitted 100 hard-of-hearing kids with hearing aids earlier in the day.
Just Awesome Duet!!!!!!! I hope they can do something together again! Love it! :)
You know, I love both Jordin’s and David’s voices, but I wasn’t sure about them dueting. Now I hear that I was wrong. Hope they do their very own duet someday, because they sound great together.
They sounded fantastic together.
Jordin & David sound great together! David knows how to duet with other people and not over power them. Great job Jordin & David!! Sorry JB you just don’t know how to do a duet!!!
Jordin & David did a great job on this song! Justin Bieber sounded terrible when he sang it with Jordin! It would be great if Jordin & David could record a song together in the future.
And this was unrehearsed. Can you imagine if they rehearsed it together. They need to do a duet on David’s next album. Come on Jive.
I really like this. Jordin and David are way talented and should definitely do a song together. Justin Bieber is not in their league. I don’t care how many times he tells the story of how Usher and Justin Timberlake fought to sign him.
Someone please wake up Jive and let them know that we need a David/Jordin collaboration (and tour!). Not only are these two talented but they are terrific role models. I adore David! (Bieber pretty much represents everything that is wrong with the music and entertainment industries now).
They sounded GREAT!! Their second performance that night was just as good if not better. Jordin and David are two very talented artists with “HUGE HEARTS”!! They are AWESOME teens – the New Generation!!
Really hope they do more things together, charity wise and artistically.
This is an awesome performance. Their second performance was even better. Here is a link:

This was just plain epic! Love it!
Sick of Beaver kid. Did he hit puberty yet? So disappointed that Usher is behind him. Usher could have found someone who can really sing. To be honest, anybody can sing Beaver’s songs with simple lyrics and rhythm.
OMG this is BRILLIANT! David’s vocals are HOT! This is the way the song was meant to be sung!
vaness
What an incredible dynamite duo duet! Would make a great song together. Boy can they sing! Must be a couple of AI artists that Scott Borchetta (Taylor Swift’s label chief) said could only hit the high songs and not communicate with their fans!
HOLY COW!!!!!! What a combo, check out 2:48!!! GAHHHHH
lct…completely agree ^^^
loveyoudavidmistyhotswanbdhg
This was fantastic!! Had to go listen to Jordin with Justin Bieber and couldn’t even listen to the whole thing. I base it on the fact that he is still you but no one can sing like David Archuleta. He overwhelms me every time I listen to him. He is such a remarkable singer with such control. Outside of the fact that I think he is so cute and actually I can even say he is sexy!!
BIEBERRR WAS BETTER.
And Archie is like a soft pop singer anyway, so thats why.
Bieber is better? You have got to be kidding!!!
Archuleta is obviously 1000x a better vocalist so no
comparison there, please.
Bieber kid sucks!!!
David abd jordin for the win!great vocals and great personalities.perfect combination!!!!
