I bought one today and just LOVE it!
I already owned a special "bonus track" edition of the original CD, (mine came with 14 tracks ~ so I had the Acoustic Versions of Crashed and Home already)...but i am happy to have some new stuff!
(It'll hold me over until that next CD comes out!!!)
i absolutely LOVE "Feels Like The First Time" - WOW!!!! It's sooo incredible vocally, instrumentally and rhythmically and wayy better than the original (sorry Foreigner).
The Acoustic songs are all excellent too... love the bongos, Joey's beautifully- meshed harmony, and the crowd in the background.
Chris...your vocals (as always) OMGsh!!!! Perfection!!!!!! Couldn't be better!
Thanks for thanking us, (your fans) in the CD!
It's our pleasure to support you and to spread the word, etc. and it's 100% PURE JOY to come to your shows!
(And yes, the extra's on here DEFINITELY justify spending more $, no worries, guys!)
Mine even came with a poster!
*Now I'm off to go watch the DVD & can't wait!*
THANK YOU for sharing your voice with the world, Chris! I could listen to it 24/7.
God sure has blessed you with theee best voice everrrr!!!!
Oh, and it was so nice to read all your individual thanks (to your wonderful, beloved wives, children, and families, etc.) and also to see the great photos of you guys!
WELL WORTH IT - I recommend this CD to everyone!
*Update* ~ just watched the DVD... my comments on it are below, but I'll quickly say here too...
it was great! It made me laugh out loud several times! You guys are just too cute / fun! Go 80's (I'm a big fan!) LOL!
I can totally imagine you guys dancin' around to all that!
LOL! (Many more comments below from me)...

This is the first time I have been to this thread and I read what you wrote and that pretty much sums up all the emotions I went through watching and listening to the Deluxe for the 1st time...

WOW !
I bought the "Deluxe" cd, due to the fact that my original now has Chris' autograph on it, and is priceless to me. I have friends that still do not know who Daughtry is (I can't even imagine this) but I could never let them borrow my signed cd, so this second one was kind of intended to share with friends and family - however I know I cannot part with it for very long. I love the added songs !!
I finally watched the dvd the other day (I'm home recovering from surgery) and it was unbelieveable !! I cried and I laughed.
I think I cried because I miss them all so much, and feel like I kind of know them already (only met them once). But wow, it's so cool to see them in the videos, they are all so talented - and still SUCH great, kind men !!
I loved the interview too.
The whole thing is priceless!
You talented guys are dearly loved.
Please don't ever stop doing what you do best - BEING YOU !

It's not super big or anything.
I'd say it's maybe an 8X10.

I'm spreading tnis message everywhere today - of how this DVD has made me feel, and I absolutely love being able to watch it.
Watched the DVD right through last night - in the dark on my own for the first time!!!
And what a roller-coaster it was - the videos from the start (and I'd forgotten about Brian not being on the first one even).
Then as Daughtry became bigger and bigger - and finally to 'What about now;' where Chris really has a chance to use his fame to say something that he feel strongly about!!! That was so emotional, had to keep re-watching it and it really got to me - the messages all through!!!!
But then what a contrast - the man with such feeling letting loose in those 'live' performances, and finally 'There and Back Again' which is so mind-blowing every time!!!!!
What an amazing ultimate experince being there would be!!!!!
I so admire Chris even more now - on top of all the other things I love about him and Daughtry - he turns out to be someone who like me actually cares about the world and the enviroment - and is wanting to do do something to make a difference!!!!
He's inspired even more desire in me - reminding me that one person can make a difference in their own way!!!!

I have a question!!!! Is "feels like the first time " going to be released as a single? I mean, it is just to awesome (obviously) to let fizzle out!!!! I mean, we DO' ers know about it- but what about the rest of the world???? It's just like the song "sorry"!!!! - just too good to remain a hidden gem!!!!!! Is there anything we can do about this????!!!????
- Jodi
I cannot get ENOUGH of "Feels Like the First Time".
I am CRANKIN' it in the house and in the car all the time!
THAT VOICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And the strong syncopated guitar & drums after the pause.... (Bownt-now-now!!!) LOL!!!!
What awesome rhythm in their version... OMGsh, it ROCKS!!!!!! Oh and
my 2 kids LOVE it too and my daughter (age 6) loves to sing along with Chris at the very ending.
She goes around the house just singing that very last "TI-I-I-I-I-I-I-I- IIIII - IIIIME" part... and she's got it nailed perfectly too, LOL!
(Although she says to me..."I don't do it quite as well as Chris, but almost, Mommy!")
Isn't it so great to have a new song sung by our favorite singer in the universe?!?! It just makes me EVEN THAT MUCH MORE EXCITED for that next CD!!!!!

Columbus 8/1/07 ~ Ohio State Fair (Missed~~was sick)

Daughtry fans just helping their guys out! HAHA

Live, laugh, love with all your heart! And.. Be true to yourself!
HUGS, LOVE and GOD Bless!
....section. Looks like it's going to place around #40 this week. I wonder what Daughtry was expecting or what the goal was. Probably if more people saw it in the aisle, they would purchase it. Not one store, have I seen it in the aisle.

the stores would have put this CD in the new release section. I think they could of sold more. Target had it under D, people wouldn't even see it unless they were looking for it.

Many more to come!!!
I think we will start getting the numbers tomorrow. This should be interesting since last week Daughtry sold around 7000 putting them at #80, I think. Hopefully the rerelease will bump it up for awhile. I know many of us will be babysitting the numbers starting tomorrow.

~~Don't draw conclusions by what you read from "unofficial" sources - "redhead"~~~
I try. No , but seriously, I didn't want to wait- just in case the first day's sales were being calculated- I got it right out of the box- they hadn't even put it out yet!!!! Speaking of sales, does anyone know what sales are up to including Daughtry Deluxe? I figure if they total them they should be up to around 7 times platinum by now!!!!!!!
You're a great fan! Walking to the mall to get your copy! I know you couldn't wait for your car to get fixed to get one! LOL
I might have done the same thing. We are serious about loving these guys!
Daughtry fans are the best!!!
I must agree about Feels Like the First Time. I love it, and I'm unfortunately also old enough to remember the original. My 11 year old daughter was singing along with me, she also knew the original song, I was really surprised. I guess she's heard it on the radio. What a great song for them to remake!!

When Chris says "sing it with me" right before the acoustic "It's Not Over".....I almost wrecked my truck!! HOT HOT HOT!!!
The entire 'package' is incredible and will hold me over just fine until the new album is released!
Thanks DAUGHTRY for another INCREDIBLE Gift to your fans!

I ended up taking down all of my stuff. I had my pictures up over my desk and I could tell it annoys him so I have it all tucked away in a drawer. Whatever - as long as I get my "girls night" every once in awhile when I get to go to a concert, I won't complain. However - speaking of water bottles.....I had a bottle and it was on my desk (ok I had two) and he THREW THEM AWAY! The man never ever cleans up and he was claiming he was just cleaning up. umm yeah, ok hon. I dug them out of the trash. LOL Anyone else got it that bad? hahahahahaha. Now they too are tucked away safely in my daughtry drawer. Noone is allowed in there.

Yes, the new Daughtry Deluxe is awesome!!!!Got mine yesterday- I had to walk to the mall (no worries only 20 minutes each way) because my car is in the shop(some guy slammed into me and I need 2 new doors)!!!!!But I did whatever I had to do to get my copy!!!I enjoyed the parts in the interview about making the videos- I knew there was some reason why Feels like tonight is my favorite video!!!!!! And yes, thank you Chris for thanking us and appreciating your fans so much- LOL!!!!!
Oh, and I also agree that Daughtry's version of Feels like the first time blows away the original!!!!!!(and I am old enough to remember the original!!!!!!)
Loved everything about it!

I know...what do we married women do with these posters, LOL?

I actually have a treadmill down in our basement and I have one small knee-wall next to it that I've filled with all my Daughtry stuff...ticket stubs, some photo's, a water bottle I caught from Chris, and now...posters.
By the way, that's good what you paid...I just looked at my reciept and I paid 16.88.
Oh well.
I don't mind my $$ going to my favorite band, hee hee!
Take care, oh and YES, I too just LOVED hearing Joey's harmony on this CD! He knows how to make his voice mesh w/ Chris' so well.

It's got me all excited about "It's Not Over" again. I'm loving this version. LOVE IT!
Hearing Joey on there just completely melts me too. I wish there was more! More accoustic songs on it! I'll take them all. LOL
Oh - got mine at Walmart and it came with a mini poster but I don't use posters since hubby would be annoyed with Daughtry hanging on my wall. ha ha. I noticed it at Best Buy yesterday, on sale for $13.99 which is about 4 bucks less than I paid at Walmart. They had plenty of copies too. FYI for those who don't have it yet.

I went to 4 different places to find it. WalMart, Target, BestBuy, and finally a different Target had it. They had it with the original Daughtry CD. I don't know if they thought it WAS the original b/c I only paid $14.95 for it. It was not out in the New Release section.
Feels like the First Time is awesome. I'm going now to watch the DVD!
