I hope someone ssings a carrie underwood song lol. i think kris might do well like keith urban type

I think Alexis will do Last Name.
Maybe Adam will do Before He Cheats. -
Posted March 14th, 2009 by ScottyMcNaughtyI don't think this genre will make out for a tremendous week considering that none of the contestants are really country. I dread weeks like this. America wants to hear songs that they know not some obscure country song they have never heard before performed by someone like Anoop. When will they learn.

I dread this theme too Scotty. I hope my favorites do well. -
I want Allison to do well and Realitynerd i dont think Adam will sing before he cheats lol.. What kinda song is that for a boy..
-
Posted March 14th, 2009 by NandaPopotahahahah, well, Michaelward, it's better than "Man, I feel like a woman" (though I believe he can actually pull it off).
And, Scotty, when I say I'm "curious", I mean terrified. It always sucks. But after Gloria Stefan and Dolly Parton weeks, I think it can't really get any worse. -
LOL before he cheats is a good song im just saying it's not man like
-
Posted March 14th, 2009 by NandaPopotaLol, yeah, I agree, but neither is "Man, I feel like a woman". Let's just estabilish he should avoid songs that talk about cheating boyfriends or feeling like a woman in general.
But I can't really picture him doing any Garth Brooks, either u.u -

but you gotta admit, it would make for a good laugh -
Posted March 14th, 2009 by ScottyMcNaughtyHe'll probably do something like Achy Breaky Heart. Although I totally wouldn't be suprised if he did a song by a female artist.
-
Posted March 14th, 2009 by NandaPopotaLOL, seriously, if anyone does "Acky breaky heart", I'm probably gonna give up on this show for EVER.
Pardon my ignorance, but I don't really understand the "opry" thing. Will they be able to sing like ANY country stuff? -
Grand ole opry is country.. If adam sings carrie i guarantee he'll screw it up

Nanda-I agree, I REALLY hope no one does that song. Please for the love of God. -
Posted March 15th, 2009 by SashaHeartsYouIf someone sings Carrie Underwood it better be Wasted. I better not hear Jesus Take the Wheel again!
I wanna hear someone sing "Friends in low places." Maybe Anoop could sing that.
I could also see Megan doing Ring Of Fire.
Im curious to hear Allison.. i love her voice and thats who i look forward to hearing each week. -
Posted March 16th, 2009 by lindalou1227I love the image of Megan singing Ring of Fire. Hilarious.
I'm thinking Alexis could kill a Dolly Parton song cause, as I've said before, "she's got Dolly Parton lips". -
I think Lil can pull off "Jesus Take The Wheel" by Carrie Underwood
Allison can sing "Love Story" by Taylor
Swift because she is around that age..
Megan can sing "Before he cheats" by Carrie Underwood -
Posted March 16th, 2009 by NandaPopotaPLEASE, NO "JESUS TAKE THE WHEEL"!
I can see Allison doing "Before he Cheats", actually. Taylor Swift is too mellow for Allison.
I'd love to see Megan singing Johnny Cash. It could be very funny. -
What's wrong with Jesus take the wheel?
-
Posted March 16th, 2009 by ScottyMcNaughtyIt is probably too current and its tough to do a song from an Idol Winner without getting compared directly to them. Their best bet would be to sing songs from non-Idol artists.
-
Posted March 17th, 2009 by lindalou1227Agree Scotty. Plus there are a lot more country artists then just Carrie and Taylor.
-
But Carrie and Taylor are the 2 most popular country artists right now
-
Posted March 17th, 2009 by ScottyMcNaughtyAnd that's why the contestants should stay away, very far away from their songs...otherwise they are going to be directly compared to them.
-
Posted March 17th, 2009 by ScottyMcNaughtyUnless they completely change the song and make it their own rendition (see David Cook's "Always Be My Baby") then they should stay away.
-
Carrie underwood's "Just a dream"
will be hard to sing just like her on that song and im thinking lil or megan can pull it off -
Posted March 18th, 2009 by LovelyDamarananda now that the show is over and i know you love adam i am curious as to what you think about his performance. Did anyone really get it?
-
All i know is Danny and that other boy sang Carrie's songs great!

I think Adam, for one, should go for a song by some female country singer. I think he can handle Shania, for example, but he's waaaaaay to, hum, "flamboyant" to try a "standard" country song. I'm curious, though... After his last performance, I'm pretty sure he can rock anything. He's currently my absolute favourite.
Anoop, oh, poor Anoop... He didn't do well last show and something tells me things are gonna be even harder next time. I think he's gonna have the hardest time of them all, and I also believe he is not the smartest contestant when it comes to song choice. I really like him, I hope he can work something out.
I'm thinking Michael Sarver will have an easier time, because he's naturally boring, and boring singers can find boring songs in just about every genre. I mean, he managed to pick the lamest MJ song, so I think he'll find something equally safe to sing and people will think he's cute. I hate him and his whole "devoted to my family and god" things is really annoying.
Danny might be able to work somehing out, mostly because of his soulful voice. And Megan could make that corky tone really work or pick a desastrous song and move around like a one-legged slightly retarded baby gazelle.
But I'm pretty sure Simon will have every performance like he does every single country week. I understand him, though... I don't know if it's because I'm not american either, but listening to country music makes me wanna hit my toes repeatedly with a hammer.
So, who else is gonna have a hard time picking their roster for this week's show? Who do you think will actually pull it off, and who is most likely to be desastrous?
