How do you find out the theme for next week and the song list choices? I believe the first mention of the theme is on results night and the song choices come out one or two days before performance night. Is this correct?

Last week, what was it? That EVERY girl over 20 would want to have sex with Adam after seeing Ring of Fire? I didnÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t realize EVERY girl was that slutty. Guess you always learn new things on this blog.

And I didn’t realize that harboring a sexual attraction to a person (no matter if it’s Adam Lambert or anyone else) is considered slutty.

Thanks for the spoilers, Carie. I was hoping for a little more upbeat song for Anoop. I’m happy that Allison gets the pimp spot.

Brave to do a ballad with the pimp stage arrangement a la Daughtry, McPhee, etc? Someone’s idea of the word “brave” is a little off.

I am worried about Anoop, but I think that my other favorites Matt is going to do well and that Adam is going to do very well.

I would describe AdamÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s clothing as one of the Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…â€œBrat PackÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ – he is in a gray suit, hair slicked backÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦did not recognize him when he first came out. I liked him before, but fell in love tonight!!

OMFG! How could I not love him more than I already do???!!!!

I’m so happy that this performance might shut up all the haters!

Lil Rounds – Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…â€œHeatwaveÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ by – Martha and the Vandellas – was her least favorite

Doesn’t sound good for Lil on Motown night. Will the judges finally cut her loose or come to her rescue?

Oh sh&^, dammit. I have to invest in a laptop. Oh well, gonna run to the family room……this is going to be an epic night I think. The hierarchy could be shaken a bit tonight.

On paper, Matt, Adam & Allison made great choices. Megan’s arrangement of For Once In My Life, however, is predictable. It will probably be Ella-fitgeralish. Lil’ picked an overdone song but will surely deliver. Scott- is he serious with that one? or will be ballad-ize it up? ZZzzzZZ…. Anoop Desai? the judges will probably say it was boring. i remember latoya sang it perfectly during season 3 and she got slammed by simon, what more anoop. and michael made a total cannon fodder choice with ain’t to proud to beg. and kris, the song choice was so safe. danny, it will be good for him but cmon, there are other great motown songs out there which he could sing.

Did Adam switch the pro-nouns around in the song? You know from “She” to “He”. From “girl” to “boy”?

I would describe Adam’s clothing as one of the “Brat Pack” – he is in a gray suit, hair slicked back…did not recognize him when he first came out. I liked him before, but fell in love tonight!!

She is rightÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦I was there tooÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦and was absolutely blown away by Adam! And wait to you see how he is dressed!!

I don’t know if I can wait until then, I feel like I am going to die of excitement.

You said he looked like he was in the Brat Pack in the Headlines thread… that should be interesting. I googled Brat Pack and got some pictures, but can someone explain what it is to me?

I knew a lot of the Temptations songs would be there, but disappointed that none of the Four Tops songs were chosen. I bet Smokey is a terrific mentor.

I am missing the fact that Alexis isn’t there. Oh well…

Love Allison’s song choice, and it’s awesome that she’s got the pimp spot!!!!! Nevertheless, I will still be voting ’til my fingers bleed cuz I do not trust America’s judgement. Yeesh…

What boring song choices. I feel like I’ve already heard every song 100 times on Idol already.

By: annoula

annoula — Wed, 25 Mar 2009 23:52:52 +0000

Anoop’s song sounds repetitive, maybe he’ll make it a bit more modern? Sigh.

I might have to fully jump on the Adam bandwagon; it looks like he has the best song of the night.

I’m guessing more modern songs weren’t on the list? Booorrriinnnggg.

I hope the source is right

Eep, really? I’m so excited. He said he had a big surprise planned for Motown Week. I’m glad Adam’s finally doing something stripped down on Idol, because he’s amazing at it.

“Ya know, sheÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s the package.” LOL :lol_wp:

Yeah, well, all the “packages” they’ve tried to shove at us haven’t had a lotta takers! Jasmine too was supposed to be la whole enchilada, but in music as in life, as the Temptations used to sing, “Beauty’s only skin deep/Yeah, yeah, yeah…”

These are not imaginative choices, given the breadth and depth of the Motown catalogue. But they are voice-testers.

So once again I say “Go Kris!’. I hate the “boring” argument. So he’s cute and adorable and not a big ol’ stage hog. I love his voice, and think he’s got the best pure musicianship in the bunch so far. :clap_tb:

And though I think Scott MacI doesn’t have much time left on the show, I hope to heaven he doesn’t blow the lyrics to “You Can’t Hurry Love.” That’s what sunk poor Brandon Rogers, another singer-pianist (and a contestant I always kinda loved).
