Change the colors of the sky.
And open up to
The ways you made me feel alive,
The ways I loved you.
For all the things that never died,
To make it through the night,
Love will find you~~~

The acoustic version of 'What about Now' ,whilst sat amongst lots of African children was amazing. It was made even more touching when all the children joined in with the chorus - it made the words to the song even more poignant. Very special. xx

When Nights were Clear ..... Your the First Star that I'd See......

Glad to see that bands like you are using their fame to help others. Watching you on American Idol got me to the point of crying. It's devastating to see what people over there are going through. People just like us..but born in to poverty, or other terrible situations. Puts a smile on my face knowing that because of American Idol Gives Back, much money will be raised to go to these families. Love the song "What About Now". It is so beautiful. Love hearing it live!

My brother died from AIDS related complications in 1996 when he was in his early 30's. I have been a member of One for almost two years now. I just wish I knew about it sooner! It's a great cause and I am proud to be involved! I am also extremely excited to see that Daughtry is a supporter as well! So, not only is he an awesome singer, and amazingly gorgeous, he also has a heart! WOW, my kinda guy!

Thanks Daughtry for supporting something so important and spreading the message!

You guys made me so proud!!

The segment on Idol Gives Back brought a tear to my eye. What Chris, Joey, and Josh did for the people of Uganda, even if it was for a short amount of time, was truly amazing. You all truly have a heart of gold. The song What About Now was the perfect song, and hearing them singing the words put a smile on my face. To see the happiness in their eyes, and even all the other segments the happiness in everyone's eyes to see that whoever was there cared. I love Idol Gives Back, it brings an awareness to what is going on in the world. It inspired me!

Some people call me a Daughtry dork, but I'm gosh darn proud to be a Daughtry dork!

I watched the Idol Gives back here in the UK last night and was so moved by the support given by all the celebs who took part. THink the show was edited down but to see the guys making the children smile....especially loved the acoustic version of "What about now" it's always been my favourite! It's has inspired me to give back myself, and have decided to do my part to raise money for a worthy cause.

I urge everyone who reads this to do the same. xxxx

A big "THANK YOU" to Chris, Joey, and Josh for a touching segment on Idol Gives Back! My family and I watched the show and were truly moved by the show. My sons (already involved with the Invisible Children organization) were just as anxious to join the ONE organization. As a parent of four boys,ages 14,12,8,and 4, I have to say again ,Thank You , for helping set and being good role models and good people! We, all your fans, are so proud of our band and they good you all do! Keep up the good work! Join ONE! God Bless. ROCK ON DAUGHTRY FANS!!!-deannarockmama4

I always knew you had a big heart, You did an amazing job. Just watching the clip was hard for me, those kids are precious. , I can't imagine what you guys faced,
May God Bless You & all the other performers.What a great job.
what about now means something totally diffrent to me since day one, that was my 3rd favorite, its exactly how I feel everyday ,
after hearing you sing it to those kids, it now means, I have alot to be greatful for.
Thanks again for being you
PS
Did I ever tell you, how proud ,I am to be a Daughtry Fan

LOVED your video on IDOL GIVES BACK. Those children and families and their living conditions there in Africa...were just heart breaking..In the small amout of time you guys had to spend there, you all brought smiles, laughter, songs and hope to those in dire need of our support and attention. I loved your acoustic song of What About Now..which was so fitting for the message and your voice was AMAZING singing it.. I have donated to the ONE charity and I know my donation will help..altho..in a small way...but added to others..will be HUGE. EVERY MEMBER of DAUGHTRY is a wonderful human being and very charitable to the less fortunate. I love your CD and rock out to it all the time...I am looking forward to your next CD..hopefully a "little harder",,Again I want to say..........You guys are Amazing!!! Rock On!!!! and God Bless all your hearts!!!!

of course the best was saved for last! Daughtry's video was inspiring!

It's hard to believe that in just America alone, we were able to raise over 60 million dollars for these causes. I am not rich, but we manage and being a school nurse in a low-income district, I see the poverty. Although I sometimes don't understand why our children in American shouldn't come first, I am greatful that everyone came together and donated.

I was absolutely moved by Daughtry's appearance on AI, you looked and sounded amazing. To be in a postion of such influence must bring the most rewarding feeling to your heart at the end of the day. You are such a great role model for everyone and I will be at the concert tomorrow in Glendale, AZ. Despite my many attempts to obtain VIP tickets I had to purchase regular, average tickets but that's okay because nothing else can sooth my "OCDD"(obsessive Chris Daughtry disorder) better than being there live. Rock on!

Before the show I posted that the show would be boring but looking forward to seeing Daughtry would make it worth the watch. Sorry AI! It was a very well produced show~~ funny, touching, some good performances. (& something that bored me, someone else may have enjoyed! Something for everyone)

ANYWHO: The best segment was DAUGHTRY'S of course and I'm sure enjoyed by all!!

how perfect that "What About Now" was so fitting!
You guys did a beautiful & touching job with that.
Thanks for your visit to Uganda, Chris, Joey and Josh, and for supporting great causes like ONE, etc.!
I always knew you'd give back, guys.
Looks like you had an undescribable & eye-opening experience while there.
Making a donation last night felt great.
We are so blessed in this Country it's sick.
I will never want MORE and BIGGER and BETTER ever again, I swear!
I can't wait to hear how much money has been raised so far!
Thanks again for being great role models.... to God be the Glory!

"There And Back Again" for Daughtry from CT. 13 times (and counting).
15 if you count the idols shows!

Hi Chris saw the video last night, I can't express how sad I felt, and how proud I felt to be your fan! Thank you for helping these children and for taking time to travel there and make this video, I posted the video to myspace.com/ericakhodr It's true we can all make a difference in this world!!!!
Thank you again.....love you so much....

I tell my husband of how much it means to me to touch the lives of children every day as a teacher of the visually impaired, and how seeing that when even the smallest changes happen, a community is stronger, and also our own lives become full of meaning. When I find myself focusing too heavily on the difficulties that our own family faces, the raising of our children, the financial and health decisions we make, the ability to stay focused on our happiness, then life seems harder. When our focus becomes the wellbeing of others, life gives back tenfold. The entire 'Give Back' event draws upon our desire to reach beyond our own struggles so that we may benefit in ways we may never fully understand.

That was the most amazing, touching performance I have ever seen! So much emotion and passion was displayed in that video. There is not another rock band out there that has what these 5 guys who are Daughtry posess. They are the most caring, giving, passionate, deserving, and TALENTED guys around! You guys are all exactly where you are supposed to be, doing exactly what you were meant to be doing, and touching so many people with your talent. I am soooo proud to be a Daughtry Fan! Thank you so much for all you do and staying true and grounded while your success continues to climb. You are a #1 Class Act!
Your fan,
Kathy
P.S. Can't wait to hear the sophmore CD!!!!!!
