Casey could have had a field day with the CCR songs from the '69 Billboard Top 100, including Fortunate Son. But this is a song, among other CCR songs, that I think James could rock with. Honky Tonk Women by the Stones wouldn't be a bad choice either. Heck, James could do half of these hundred.

For Jacob, Steam's Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye
For Hayley, 5th Dimension's Wedding Bell Blues
For Scotty, Johnny Cash's A Boy Named Sue (also Neil Diamond's Sweet Caroline or Glen Campbell's Wichita Lineman)
For Lauren, P,P&M's Leaving on a Jet Plane

Very clever!

I could see James doing "Light My Fire" by the Doors.

"On Thursday’s results show, Idol judge Jennifer Lopez will perform “On The Floor” with rapper Pitbull, and country music supergroup, Lady Antebellum, will sing their latest song."

From mjsbigblog.

J Lo's reason to sign on to AI is complete. Self pimpage! (I expect Steven to take the stage at the finale, so it's not just J Lo).

Yep, I see James doing a ballad-like Beatle's song, then a rockin' in the now song that will showcase his range, and moves. At this point, the boy can basically do no wrong. He's pretty much got it in the bag, and I always look forward to hearing him!

Jacob (cannot believe he's still here!! Whateva) more than likely will do something like "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" (did someone else do that? Seems like maybe they did....) to showcase HIS range and creepiness; then I can't imagine what he'd do for current theme. Maybe Ce-Lo's 'Forget You'?? HA! I can see it now...never mind.

Hailey may do another Janis Joplin, but I'd like to see her do a Jefferson Airplane and show some gutsy Grace Slick. Have NO idea what she'll do up to date. More than likely something jazzy, and I'm really not up to speed on who's who in that dept.

Scotty will be the dark horse on this one. He'll probably do an Elvis, maybe 'In the Ghetto', or "Suspicious Minds" (man, I feel like I've heard these songs 1000x's and can't remember if they were just done or not..). Would LIKE to see him do something totally unusual like BS&T's, 'You Made Me So Very Happy', or some such thing. For up to date? Got me...I'm sure it will be very countrified.

Lauren-wow. Very unpredictable for her as well. I'd love to have her do a folksy, flowy Joan Baez, Joannie Mitchell, but we'll see what happens there. Up to date, I'm sure she'll do a Carrie Underwood or something VERY similar....yawn....

Ooh, look at zazzy! All surprised that JLo is doing this for self-pimpage. I had always figured that was her main reason for doing AI.

I never got the feeling that Steven Tyler was doing it for the same reason. The guy's a legendary rockstar. He doesn't need the pimpage. I think he's just doing it because it's so much fun. And I'm glad he is because as useless as his judging has been, he's been hysterically funny. And he's kinda sexy in a weird, icky sort of way. And he's an amazing singer - I can't wait for him to sing at the finale.

I got sliced!

And thank dog he's on the show because it's been another season of dreckitude (as they say over on ANTM).
