AMERICAN IDOL 2012: SUGGESTIONS AND CHALLENGE FOR THE TOP 5



First, I'm not really sure what British-themed music are, but I'm sure they are songs from Birtish artists. This week, I'll be suggesting and challenging again for the top 5. Before I'll suggest, I think the week would've been much better if Elise and Colton were still in the competition, because they'll surely know what songs to sing for this week's theme. Now, let's begin!

Skylar Laine
SUGGESTION: Come Together by The Beatles - I know the song has been covered a lot on Idol, but with Skylar, it's gonna be different. The country twist she can put in it, the headbang, the more upbeat verson,l that's what she can do. The song is known and loved by most Americans, and it might even leave a great impact.
CHALLENGE: With Ur Love by Cher Lloyd - This song is loved and hated, the challenge for her is to make America like the performance she can give with the song.

Joshua Ledet
SUGGESTION: Jumpin' Jack Flash by The Rolling Stones - The song is so for Joshua, and it doesn't sound that boring. He can pull it off, and I think whether he does pull it off or not, America will put him through...
CHALLENGE: It's Not Unusual by Tom Jones - Aw, this is gonna sound karaoke if sang by just anyone. Joshua? We'll really  see what you can do, and it has to be better than "Crazy Little Thing Called Love."

Jessica Sanchez
SUGGESTION: Domino by Jessie J - Another fun song, which I see Jessica singing. She can sing the song, and not make it ballad the way she did with "How Will I Know" where I saw her really have fun on the stage.
CHALLENGE: Valerie by Amy Winehouse - It's gonna be a struggle for Jessica to head bang on the Idol stage, this song might help her or not, because based on her Bohemian Rhapsody performance, we really don't know if she's flexible enough. A great artist can sing anything, and a great artist is not afraid to take on risks, it's time for Jessica to prove that.

Phillip Phillips
SUGGESTION: Breakeven by The Script - They are based in London, that means they are British singers. The song is great, it's not boring, Americans know the song, and no other artists has covered the song and did a great job yet, maybe Phillip can.
CHALLENGE: Under Pressure by David Bowie with Queen - Imagine Phillip singing the song. It will ba hard for him, but that's the challenge here. The song fits his voice, but we have to see him connect with it without struggling.
Hollie Cavanagh
SUGGESTION: Candle in the Wind by Elton John - For me, this is one of the best songs sang by a British artist, and Hollie can definitely sing it. The emotion, and message of the song will help her get through to the next round. She has a lot of things to do to have a perfect performance, but based on the past weeks, she can handle it.
CHALLENGE: Footprints in the Sand by Leona Lewis - One of Leona's best songs. It has a great message. The challenge on the song is how Hollie's gonna connect with it, as well as the way she's going to sing it. If she has to sing it, she doesn't have to do rearrangements because the song's already perfect for her.

That's it! Make sure you stay tuned on the performance night so you can vote for your favorite, and see Carrie Underwood and Coldplay perform on the results night!
