The theme is songs from their idols

"next week they're singing their #IDOL's songs. Beyonce, Mariah, Miranda, Lifehouse, Daughtry, Led Zeppelin. Now that should be interesting?" (@dizzyfeet)

Therefore id suggest

Skylar =miranda
Jessica = Beyonce (i reckon if i were a boy)
Hollie - Mariah (oh god )
Elise - Led Zeppelin (like Haley did last season)
Deandre -
Heejun - dont care, needs to go home!!
Phillip - Daughtry
Colton - Lifehouse (been tweeting them all week, said he wants to sing Everything on the show, big rock band in the states and associated with Smalville so very much one of the teens)

Don't know who Miranda is, so I would choose Miley Cyrus for Skylar, maybe Party In The USA? It'd be within her range, but cheesier than she normally does...which would bode well for me as I'm not a fan!

Jessica - Maybe Sweet Dreams, one of Breyonce's best songs I reckon!

Hollie - If she does Mariah, she should do a recent one which isn't overdone like We Belong Together.

Elise - Has she actually said Led Zep are her idols? I don't think she ould do high pitched shrieks...her voice cracks too often. I could see her singing Janis Joplin - maybe Mercedes Benz as Piece of My Heart is overdone!

Deandre - Bruno Mars might work! Would say Just The Way You Are but I'm a Stefano fan, so to give him a chance I'll say Marry You.

Heejun - Never Gonna Give You Up - well, he doesn't take the show seriously!

Phillip - Will probably try to get away with an original! He could try Always by Bon Jovi to show a softer side, I like that one!

Colton - I thought Daughtry were Colton's idols, not Phillip's? Home would probably suit him, though it's where Skylar or Heejun should be going!

Have Joshua and Erika both been eliminated? I thought Erika's NYSOM was the best performance of the night!

xxxx

I can imagine her singing "Since I've Been Loving You" actually. As for Janis, no "Mercedes Benz" on a Ford show I like "Piece of My Heart", but I'd go for "Ball and Chain".


Only Erika, Joshua's still in the show and doing a great job

Lol forgot about Ford as we don't see the commercials any more! Don't know Since I've Been Loving You but it might work!

Yeah I thought Josh had just been missed out...something like I Need a Dollar by Aloe Blacc would be good for him in terms of being more current, but he'll probably do something like I Heard It Through The Grapevine

Shame about Erika though...hoped that the judges would use the save if she ended up bottom!

xxxx

haha forgot about Joshua!! well we know 6 of the 9 artists being sung, and Lifehouse are Coltons idols and hes said he wants to sing one of their songs so im 99% sure that hes with them which leaves Daughtry with Phillip because i cant imagine Heejun or Joshua with Daughtry

Jessica- Love On Top (Beyonce)
Colton- Halfway Gone (Lifehose)
Hollie- Yesterday (The Beatles) (Well, she is Liverpudlian)
Philip- Don't Think Twice, It's Alright (Bob Dylan)
Elise- Stairway To Heaven (Led Zepellin)
Deandre- Dance Little Sister (Terrence Trent D'Arby)
Skylar- Blame It On Your Heart (Patty Loveless)
Joshua- His Eye Is On The Sparrow (Lauryn Hill)
Heejun- Go The Distance (Michael Bolton)

My god i would love Deandre to do Terence Trent D'arby!! theyre made for each other

I sense some acts may be told who their idols are in order to get a suitable song out of the theme. lol

haha yeah i remember when X Factor did this theme i was like hmmmmm im sure you never said that person was your idol!!1 I think its pretty certain Colton will do either Daughtry or Lifehouse with Lifehouse being the most likely!

I guess theyre not a band we know very well over here but theyre massive in the states, esp in the Christian Rock circles so that could be a huge moment for him if he nails it!

Are these announced? can you please post a link?

Visually.....maybe.......def not vocally lol!

That tends to be how it's gone over past seasons, they even do it on UK Xfactor..........might as well rename the theme "Producers' Idols"

Don't think there are any definite song choices yet, but I know that one of Jessica's musical inspirations is Miranda Lambert, so think she may sing one of her songs. I'm just hoping it's The House That Built Me.

im pretty sure that Skylar will do Miranda; No there isnt official choices but we know 6 of the artists being covered and im not sure about anyone else but i think its pretty easy to guess who is doing who in that list

(you watch me be totally wrong lol)
