Already at Times Square..That's how much we love you guys....Keep on rocking...Love ya guys..Happy New Year!!

your band is awesome!!!! well bye!!! please think about coming to Louisiana!!!

I thought at the AI auditions you were great,what really hooked me was your wifes comments,(shes special treat her good) Voted for you every week three times. ( we have 3 different phone lines,so I knew they'd all count) I really wanted to see you go all the way, and knew that night you got sent out no one had heard the last of you.Just as I knew I'd be the first one in the store to buy your cd. It's really awsome, great job guys. Every song, and I don't never like every song on a cd. I'm now waiting to hear when you guys will be in Michigan,love to see the concert. I do have to say, I to would really like to hear you record that version of Walk The Line, I hadn't heard that one and it was awsome, I still get goosebumps over it,(and havn't heard it again since) I just really wanted to say Chris I hope you get everything you deserve, your a great singer and from what I've seen and heard a really great person,you deserve good things. I'll be a fan for life. Don't let this all change you to much, stay true to yourself and your family, the rest will follow you. Congrad's ,best wishes
and a job well done. Thank god for you.

Yo Chris and guys,

First of all, congratulations to all of you for your newfound success. I think I was the first one in line at our Wal Mart to get the new album. It is such a breath of fresh air. I absolutely love it. I listen to it everyday, and unlike alot of my other albums, it never gets old!

To Chris: Dude, you may never know how much watching you on AI has brought me and my family together. I have never watched more than a couple episodes of that show before season 5 started. My whole family were instant fans of yours from the beginning. On Tuesday's, nothing else mattered to us. We HAD to watch, just to see how you were doing. My wife, two sons, and my sisters and brother are all very big fans. As far as me, I am your biggest fan in the world because of your music, your family beliefs, and for bring my family together to watch. I'm proud of you bro and thankful you came along. My whole family is proud of you, and we will be fans forever. Thanks and we'll see you soon hopefully.

Hola Como estan !!!

Vivo en Panama, una amiga fue a New York y me trajo el CD....

Estoy super feliz ....

Saludos....

I have been a fan of you Chris since the First time i heard him on American Idol and i was Devistated when he got voted off. I mean Hello, he is fine as hell and his voice is beautiful. I am so glad that he already has an album out and you never even here of whoever one American Idol that year. If you ever get a chance then come to the big town of Dallas. We Love you here!!

Would love to see Chris do a cover for the Brian Adam's song "Have you ever really loved a women" from the Idol competition. He did such an amazing job of it!

Thank you for bringing your talent's to the masses.
I hope you had a great Holiday!!

I'm going to call you smiling Josh! I've noticed that you are always smiling! You look like you are enjoying this time in your life! Just know...I am enjoying watching you having fun! Thanks for making Daughtry wonderful! I seriously cannot wait until you make it to the South East! Better yet...come to the House of Blues in Myrtle Beach, SC! I can't wait to see you in person!

I'm so happy for all the band! I hope that you guys can come from Brazil soon!
We're waiting for DAUGHTRY!

Congrats Josh , So stoked for you. Hope all is going great and hope this new year proves to be your best ever!
All the best Bro!

chris i followed u since american idol and you guys rock got the cd love it

And where is your photo may I ask? The blury thing does not do you justice!

I have to agree that as much as I hated it when Chris was "voted off" it was the best thing for him. I hated to see him leave, but then I wasn't glued to the tv 2 nights in a row anymore. lol. But if he had won then they would have tried to change him. This way he stayed true to himself. I listen to country but I loved Chris from the beginning and definitely went out and bought his cd!! Now I am trying to wait patiently and hopefully he will be coming to the Detroit area on his tour.

By the way... I LOVED seeing you on New Years Eve. What an awesome start you are getting!!!!!

I would love to see you guys in concert!! If any way possible come close to the Memphis, Tn. area.
If you would email me and let me know when you post your tour dates. You guys rock keep up the good work!!!

From the moment Chris appeared on the auditions there was something special. Was not shocked that you were "booted" off even though I called 25 times to vote for you the night before. But there is something that God is going to do with you, and you have acknowledged that Jesus is your Lord and Savior. Do good with the talent he has given you and don't take for granted that He gave you the gift. You and your band will be blessed - your family too. Put God first. Take some time and listen to Him. He'll lead the way

hey

hey chris my mom loves you so much!! you can sing really good. i think america voted wrong on american idol last year. you should have won that.but taylor is good too but not any where near as good as you!!!!!!!

TRH

I love your voice and want to see you be the greatest. I just bought your CD. I am 47 years old. Your CD was great for a first try. Here it is BUT the songs all sound the same. You need a different theme besides the broken heart or relationship. You have many sides use them. Good Luck you were great on New Years. Rock on!

A year ago, right after Christmas, my husband left us.....he not only left me but my 2 kids as well. As you might imagine it was a very difficult time. In January we bonded (my kids and I) every week during American Idol; all snuggled up in the bed. It was at this time, my daughter Jenna (age 6) got attached to you and your success on the show. We watched religiously every week making sure you continued on. I don't know if it's because you have similar features of her father or because it was a man (who was also a dad) who she saw every week; no matter what. You were there on TV and yes, she in her sweet heart, felt you were singing to her personally. Well, the love affair began: a type of distant uncle in a sense; someone she believed in; who was being a good dad to two daughers. Anyway, the night you were "voted off" was quite traumatic...lots of crying, outrage and a type of lose. I promised her you were going to make an album and we would buy it and you would be more successful than any American Idol winner. This sort of helped. Well, Santa in his infinate wisdom and knowledge of knowing what a good girl needed, brought her your CD. It was her favorite present. The mini poster is hanging on her wall and she hasn't stop listening to it. She has even recruited her friends into her personal Chris Daughtry fan club. I just wanted to say Thank you....as strange as it seems for being there for my daughter. This year has been hard on her but, you have brought her a lot of happiness. Thank you.....a loving mother.

Hey Guys,

Congrats on the album. I just bought it and loved every single song in it. Hope you are already working on material for the next one. Keep up the great work!!!

Much love,

Nina Lillard
Alexandria, VA.

P.S: This guys are also great, check them out at www.uimusic.net (My husband's band!)

I gave my 9 yr. old son your c.d. for Christmas. Our family have been fans since we saw your first performance on American Idol and you are the main reason we saw the IDOLs show in Richmond , Va this summer. Thanks for producing an album that is good hard rock that doesn't need parental advisories!!! we are so looking forward to concert dates and times and pray your band lands in Virginia! It would be a birthday present for my son to see you guys in concert.
God Bless and hoping to see and hear great things from you guys.

Hey Chris, great job last night on FOX. It was a great addition to our party we had here in Utah!!. Hope the family is doing great and we certainly can't wait for you to come here and play live. I too picked you out from the beginning of Idol along with my 5 daughters and my mother!! We have loved you from the beginning. Keep up the great music and may God bless you and your family. Hurry to Utah!!!

Waiting for you to get here!,

Kooners

I just knew that from the first time I heard you sing,that you were going to be huge!Your debut CD has not left my Cd player since I bought it.
It is the most incredible music I have ever heard.You've got a lifetime fan in me.Keep the great music coming!

When will dates be released for the tour? I am in the Atlanta,GA area and I CAN NOT miss Daughtry's concert!! I love the album...best total album I have heard in years!
Thank you guys. Keep it coming.

Hey Hey, I'm hoping that it's not just the US that you are going to be touring, we love you in Canada, and hope that there will be some tour dates here, especially in the Maritime Provinces. Keep up the great work and best wishes in the New Year!!

You did a great job New Years Eve, Love your group! Keep up the great work, your hard work is paying off, and it shows!

My wife and I have been [cautiously] VERY optimistic about your potential as a serious commercial success, waiting to see if you and your band could create your own marketable music and everyone would keep their head... and to see if you could perform well as a live act. On New Years Eve, you demonstrated the final piece of the puzzle. Congratulations, you seem like a very grounded guy with a bright future. And getting voted off American Idol was by far the best thing to happen to you over the past year, as you guys can determine your own destiny. All best and we look forward to seeing you live.

Yea, I heard that Daughtry is going on tour soon, and I am hoping that you guys perform in Dallas. I love the music and the lyrics. Y'alls music is so beautifully put togather, and the simple but powerful lyrics always makes me feel sooo good! You definetly know how to be a band!! But my mom, who grew up on true rock music...loves Daughtry just as much as I do, and lemme tell you, we are hoping sooo much for that tour.. So in other words, make sure you are considering making a stop in Dallas to give us a kick ass performance!!! I'll be one of the first to be buying tickets...

You guys...JUST ROCK!
Keep it up..Im lovin' it!!

I have been waiting to see when you would come out with your first album after Idol. I have never visited any singer's/band's website but I thought you should know your music is killer and I hope your career takes off from this first album. I heard "It's Not Over" for the first time yesterday on my XM and it's about time. The song was great and I look forward to hearing the rest of the album. I will be watching FOX tonight because you will be singing. My wife can't wait either just so she can drool. I can't wait to see what kind of music you bring out in the future. Make sure you come to San Diego, say Coors Ampitheatre, rock the city.

HI guys. I've listed to you guys since day one. and i was watching the New Years Eve special on Fox and you guys had performed. Well, when you guys were being interviewed you said that you were going on tour. i looked on ticketmaster right when i heard that to see if you guys were coming. Well they didn't have anything. So is there any chance that you will be coming to Arizona?

Hi Josh,
I met your cousin, Ryan, at a family gathering for Christmas. He is dating my niece. When my niece started talking about Daughtry, and how Ryan was your cousin, I couldn't believe it! I told him to let you know that Daughtry's best fans live in the Northwest Smiling We can't wait to see you in concert - hoping you'll make it to Portland! We are all addicted to the CD - can't stop listening to it!! On Christmas, my sister gave Ryan a Daughtry CD for a present - it was funny. Am getting ready to watch you all on the FOX New Year's special!

Blessings for a wonderful new year filled with peace, love, joy, grace - and favor with God and man! Happy New Year!
Cheryl

I look forward to the time when you guys travel up here to Canada for some shows. Please don't forget us in Toronto!
