NOBODY BUT YOU
In the 1992 film "Ring Of The Musketeers", David portrays modern day musketeer, John Smith D'Artagnan. The action comedy which also stars Cheech Marin and Corbin Bernson, features a scene in which David's character has a rock concert in order to lure the criminals into town. During that concert, David performs the song "Nobody But You". Although this film/European series did have a soundtrack, this track was unfortunately not on it. I have been able to get my hands on the demo performed by Keith Landry, however, the only known release of David's version this cool track is in the film itself!

YOU ARE EVERYTHING
David’s 7th studio album, “You Are Everything”,
was released in Europe in 1993 on the BMG label. This album was a huge contrast
from his previous album “Everybody Sunshine”, in that this album would feature
several soft rock songs produced by such well known producers as Bruce Swedien
and Rene Moore. The albums first single, and the lead track on the album is “Dance
Dance D’amour”. “If I Could Only Say Goodbye”, “Wir Zwei Allein”, & “Miracle
Of Love” are just a few of the popular and well known tracks from this album.
Several of these songs would not only go on to be released as singles, but were
also a part of David’s 1995 self-titled album released in the USA. In addition
to the albums singles, the song “Tighter And Tighter” was also featured on an
episode of Baywatch. David also recorded a song called “Hit And Run” for this
album, but it was not released. The only way to ctach this one is on the “Behind
The Scenes” video released that same year. All in all, this is 1 Hofftastic
album that you need to get your hands on. It was released on cd and cassette,
and in 2 different versions. Version 1 contains the song “Wir Zwei Allein Heut
Nacht” and version 2 has the English version “A Star Looks Down Tonight”.

FISH HUNTER
David recorded the campy tune "Fish Hunter" for the soundtrack of the film Piranha 3DD in 2012. Playing himself in this crazy sequel to the 2010 hit Piranha 3D, David really turns it up a notch with this crazy song and video which is found at the end of the film!

FEELING GOOD
Although he has yet to release a recording of "Feeling Good", David has not only performed the song on America's Got Talent, and his Hoff Is Back dvd, but has performed this song live in several of his recent concerts. The song was written by Anthony Newly and Leslie Bricusse for the musical The Roar Of The Greasepaint - The Smell Of The Crowd in 1964. David always takes this one a step further and really puts a show into his performance, to go with his stellar vocals!

HOLD ON MY LOVE
This rare 2 track cd single, "Hold On My Love", was released by Polydor Records in 1997. The song is from the album "Hooked On A Feeling". A cool feature of this one, is that it was not in a regular plastic cd case, but rather a cardboard picture sleeve. Track 2 is the album version of "I Live For Love".
