"Top 4 Theme"
Posted by Snidget on 05-06-11 at 08:20 AM
The Songbook of Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller.

Lady Gaga Mentors,Jordin Sparks sings, and Steven Tyler's new video premieres.

Wonder if Gaga's going to get to say something about Hayley and the terrible choice of singing a song no one knows?


I used to be indecisive but now I'm not so sure.

In case anyone's curious, here's a list from Lieber & Stoller's Songbook. (And click on the Song List tab.)

Thanks, I've heard of them but nary a song came to mind.

Haley--I'm a woman

James -- Jailhouse Rock. He already did Living For the City; time to take another song Taylor did on the show!


Melinds D on AI--I'm a woman:

Sing it!

Maybe Lady Gaga can offer some wardrobe pointers to Haley too.

I think Lady Gaga should dress the men. Look what a wonderful job Gwen Stefani did.

Potential Top 3 theme?

If Lauren performs I Love You wearing a purple dress while backup singers wave ads for creation museums to the beat of the Swaybots, she will either go home on the spot or win by eighty million votes. I can't decide which.

I thought you'd found out what Randy was serving at his bake sale.

From MJ'sBigblog...who got it from E!:

"James Durbin Will Sing “Don’t Stop Believing” on Idol this Week
10

(snip)

E! News has exclusively learned that Durbin will perform Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’” tomorrow and sources tell us the 22-year-old smallish-town boy (born and raised in…Santa Cruz, Calif.!) has crafted a “mind-blowing” version of the 1981 classic.

And considering Durbin’s metal edge is pronounced and there’s only one of him, we weren’t surprised to hear that his will sound “nothing like” the version that accompanied Glee everywhere it went during its award-winning first season.

“He will make it his own, that’s for sure,” an insider says."

(snip)

So, there is likely a second theme, like "contestant's choice" or "producer's choice" ....

The Journey version (live in Japan '81).

And Simon's X-Factor Glee show filler. (Glee fans will love it, but I hit the 'X' button before the first minute.)

LOL,"Mercedes" wails it right in Simon's face!

I didn't know Glee was going to do a tour. It's like a top 12 AI tour, only choreographed. Where was Kurt, I wonder?

Yeah, that song worked SO WELL for Chris Jericho a couple of weeks ago on Dancing With the Stars...(/sarcasm)

It's a good thing he went out when he did. He never would have been able to mentally adjust to that genre.
