Topic: American Idol Final 8 Performance Discussion

[TexasLady]

As the singers leave, the fan base becomes more focused or disillusioned.  The song list should be leaked later this afternoon, if I find it I'll post it. I did see a suggestion on another site that Adam should choose "Singing in the Rain."  Not seeing that as a good choice for Adam. (Unless he can dance like Fred Astaire and sing at the same time.) 

Spoilers for the West Coast:

Allison: “Don’t Want to Miss a Thing - Aerosmith
Anoop: “Everything I Do” by Bryan Adams
Adam:  “Born to be Wild” by Steppenwolf
Matt:    “To Really Love a Woman” by Bryan Adams
Danny: “Endless Love” by Diana Ross
Kris:     “Falling Slowly” by Glen Hansard
Lil:       “The Rose” by Bette Midler -

well anooop realy redemed him self last night jmo.. i though the kid was going to b a goner this week not i have no idea i realy wish they ha better songs to chose from i love the songs they sang but... there r sooo many other good ones y those??i am sure idol has to pay copy rights for songs so i wonder if they r being cheep or what i mean i love the way they all did ther thing but searously, born to b wild is as old as me, and endless love realy again loved all the songs about 20 yrs ago, and they all did a great job, but there r so many great song out there from movies,

Lucky Matt! He escaped elimination? OMG, he's a miracle. I don't know but I'm so like, freaking out. Next week, there will be two who has to be eliminated. It's bad. Real bad.

There are some great songs from this era. I hope Lil can find one that will make her shine. Could Lil sing "Don't Leave Me This Way" by Kenneth Gamble, Leon Huff, and Cary Gilbert and create her moment?

I also hope that Allison finds something that she just sings and drops the rock style next week.

One of my favorite movies is Saturday Night Fever featuring The Bee Gees. I love their music. I also love Abba. There are others as well, KC and the Sunshine Band, I Will Survive" written by Freddie Perren and Dino Fekaris.  (Please don't let Danny sing anything whatsoever to remind us of his wife, I know he is grieving but he needs something up-tempo and fun!)

I'm not as good at suggesting music as the rest of you are! What would you suggest?
