I don ´t think Imagine will be in the album... there is rumors about him reocrding Angels and Crush in spanish, I really hope the later one is not true... ^I really clueless but excited at the same time about what kind of music the album will have, hopefully we will see some of his originals works… I don ´t think Imagine will be in the album… there is rumors about him reocrding Angels and Crush in spanish, I really hope the later one is not true…

Some good stuff, some great stuff, some unfamiliar stuff (for me) that I have to go check out! This is random speculation, but looking at that list made me wonder what types/mix of songs would be on Archie's first album, and I wonder if it'll be mostly pop/R&B (like Crush, or Jordin's album), or mixed with some of his more eclectic music tastes as well. Based on the fact that he's been trying to write and get some original stuff on it, I'm beginning to lean towards the latter, provided Jive permits it. I'd be more likely to pick up the album with the latter, too, rather than cherry picking the catchy/fun pop singles. I wonder if he'll put a full length version of Imagine on it, since fans never got a studio version.

My morbid sense of curiousity made me take a peek. Wildly eclectic with some respectable choices. Led Zeppellin and Joni Mitchell...this kid is full of surprises, and I meant that in a good way. cruzceleste, thanks for posting that song list by David A.

Looking at it, I think that you're right in your final three. It's interesting that Syesha makes it Top 2, given that some people have questioned how Syesha stayed so long, given that there has not been a very visible showing of her having a big fanbase. But playing with camp Should A Been might just give us the answer---Syesha may never have had a huge performance, like Imagine, Billie Jean, Let It Be, or Hallelujah, that drew raves throughout the internet. But she never had a train wreck either. Smartcookie, I was pondering how whatnottosing satsifies that same love of stats that baseball does.

(Remember Carly and the Queen song where she was all cranky and screamy? On Inspiration Night? It was kinda cool.) If I'm right, MJ lasts till Top 3, Syesha will be F2 with Cook, and Alaina Whitaker, of all people, may be around till Top 5. I wonder what songs they'll pick for Alaina. I find it very funny and besides, I like fantasy leagues. What can I say? Meanwhile, my faves like Elliott and Melinda won their Camp Should-A seasons, and J-Hud is third her season behind Fantasia at #2 and LaToya at #1, which is kind of awesome.

I think it's hilarious. I was disappointed that they didn't have the entire season reviewed. It's all hypothetical but being that Kelly is the only winner who Should-A Been according to them, it has me a bit nervous for David Cook's chances.

So, with LaKisha in Season 6, they had her sing songs identified with past Idol contestants, just as she did earlier in the season when she sang "Jesus Take the Wheel" and "I Believe." But the numbers are the same regardless of what song they are attached to---they are somehow calculated based on past performance for each contestant, with a deterioration based on their database. Top 8 (Innocent) would definitely seem to be the test for David C. From what I can tell, they just have fun with selecting the songs for the “holdover” contestants.
