I don't think they spent much camera time on who got what song, and I had to go to the contestant's blogs to help me remember most of them. Let's see:

JESSICA got Blister In the Sun--she's worried about it not showing her "vocal abilities" but from the rehearsal footage, I think she'll do a good job, maybe her best yet. It's getting her out of her Cher Zone, and I didn't think that was possible.

TY got Everlong--hmmm. It will be interesting to see how that turns out. I wonder how he'll do on the softer parts...

BRANDON got a song by Tonic that I'm vaguely familiar with, but it seems to have a melody, so....

JORDIS got The Man Who Sold The World by David Bowie. I've never heard Bowie's version, but I have heard the version by...NIRVANA. I wonder if Jordis knows that some consider this a Nirvana song? She must, because she's Grunge Girl. And why would she do this song if it reminds her of her dead friend? Why put herself in the position of maybe losing it? From the tiny bit of rehearsal we saw, I think she'll do it beautifully...let's hope she doesn't cry.

MARTY got Arms Wide Open by Creed--he'll do that well, I guess, but I don't like the song that much. He was asked by the band to sing a ballad this time. Oh well.

MIG will perform We Will Rock You. In his blog, he says he's good friends with Brian May, of Queen. I hope he does this song with the attutude it requires--much swagger and bravado. He would do well to reveal that side of himself, if it's there.

SUZIE will do Get Back. That should be good, unless she American Idolizes it. Let's hope not.

DEANNA got the Melissa Etheridge song, I'm The Only One. She is gonna sing the hell outta that one, kick @ss & take names. That is, provided her self confidence isn't too destroyed by feeling like "damaged goods" from the vocal clinic.

TARA--what song did she get? It's not on the blog. (Her blog entries show her as a very nice person. I feel I may lighten up on her...nah, she still bugs me, at least in performance.)

JD--I can't remember what he got, & I know it was one that Suzie was wanting, too. I just remember hitting the mute button when they showed him trying it out! It's not on his blog.

So, could someone tell me what Tara & JD will be singing?
