"Top 11 theme (et. all) ibid: Elton John."

Must be the English name of that Norwegian recording studio that put out all those pop hits during the late 1970s. Or else it's an attempt to make Lauren hide in her room for the rest of the week. Or (actually, this is more of an and/or) -- we could be getting -- dare I say it? -- a performing mentor!

Meet the new format, same as the old format. Thanks, Nigel! (Still waiting for the four-star depimping, though. Hurry up, willya? The person sitting next to me just checked off Casey Goes To Hospital Again.)

Okay... the EJ catalog. We don't know just what this includes yet: his efforts only, collaborative works, anything done for Disney -- but the first category should be a mortal lock. As such, this could easily turn into Wrong Song Week. Scotty may have the most to worry about: what's here that he can twist into pure country? There's a few Pia can balladize, and we all know Paul can find something to destroy. If this week favors anyone, it might be James: punk-and-storm isn't as far away from psychedelic as you think, especially when the drugs start to go bad.

What should they sing? What will they sing instead? Should we list the rest of the season's promises and start the countdown timer on that shattering sound?

...no, not you, Stefano. At least, not until Wednesday.

Someone took our hopes tonight.

Here is the list of which EJ songs have been sung before, so that makes them pretty likely to be heard again as AI loves retreads and only seems to be willing to let one or two people sing something new in any given week.

Circle of Life
Crocodile Rock
Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me
Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues
I'm Still Standing
Levon
Rocket Man
Someone Saved My Life Tonight
Something About The Way You Look Tonight
Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word
Take Me To the Pilot
Tiny Dancer

OK, NOW Nigel lied. He said they wouldn't have to sing a particular performer's songs...so before now the themes were still broad enough.

Must be related to the new music partner since they are no longer partnered with Sony.

What will Pia sing since they beat her up for singing ballads? She's been painted into a corner; don't want to hear her doing Crocodile Rock.

Thia== a lock for a Disney tune...something from the Lion King?

Here are the acts for Thursday night -- from AInow.org:

Thursday, March 31: 2 Finalists Eliminated (8-9pm ET)
*Fantasia performs "Collard Greens & Cornbread"
*will.i.am and Jamie Foxx perform "Hot Wings (I Wanna Party)"

Nice picks emy! What about Pinball Wizard for James if they don't let him sing Lucy?

Nice list!

Lucy for James would be terrific.

Pia..Tiny Dancer...ok.

Jacob has to sing a song that means something to him...so I could see him singing Circle of Life...it's a battle for who gets the ballad-y songs!
