According to the Idol Blog Spot, next week’s theme will be “Previous Winners’ Performance Catalog”.
The finalists will choose a song from the American Idol performance catalogs of the 11 previous American Idol winners, excluding Coronation Song. Meaning: No “Home” or “I Believe”. To clarify–the list will comprise of songs the Idols performed in competition during their season. ETA: It’s actually any song a winner has covered on the show or sang in their post-Idol careers.
In case you need a refresher, the previous winners are: Kelly Clarkson, Ruben Studdard, Fantasia Barrino, Carrie Underwood, Taylor Hicks, Jordin Sparks, David Cook, Kris Allen, Lee DeWyze, Scotty McCreery and Phillip Phillips
