I am so excited for Matt’s song! Yay.
I think this is the first time The Fray has cleared a song for the show.

Go Matt go!

I think Megan is doing The Fugee;s cover of No Woman No Cry or Lauryn Hill's Doo Wop (That Thing). She could kill with the latter. Anyway, Kris could have a Hallelujah/Summertime/Billie Jean moment with Ain't No Sunshine.

Lol, OMG, they dress Allison like a GIANT RASBERRY! Adam looks good as hell. Why would they dress Allison to looks so fat? she isn’t fat.

Wow, they realllly love them some Matt, eh? Pimp spot again AND clearing a current Fray song?

Does anyone have a list of the pimp spot performers since top 12? Matt was country week, Allison last week…who was MJ week?

Well all I can say is that if the song choices are true, if nothing else, Anoop should get credit for choosing a song from this century. Though they’ll probably slate him.

I think Kris will sound great, but in a week where people have the opportunity to be “current” I think they should deduct points if they go to these old safe songs *cough* Scott *cough*

Adam’s a special case (lol, isn’t he always) as you know his redintion will be one of a kind!

Heart,

Perhaps, but when he had so many songs to choose from, why that? Maybe he knows an awesome arrangement. I dunno, I have a bad feeling though, we’ll see

Adam will not be in the top half of the show because then people would switch channels. It’s the same reason David Cook (or I suspect Blake in season 6) was rarely in the top half of the show. Most people who watch Idol don’t vote and don’t have OMG!!11!! eleventy boyfriends for the season. They watch to see the show. Right now Adam is the show. The way to change that is for a different contestant to generate their own buzz. Until that happens get used to frustration. Ratings matter a whole lot more than fair to Idol.

Adam has been number 5, and 8 and 11. He has not had the pimp spot since the actual show started.

Perhaps the theme is #1 songs… period.
