One of our Posters, Erika, had a friend at the rehearsal today.  She’s got a few song spoilers for us.  Hopefully, these are correct, cause I was hoping Adam would sing that song!!! 

UPDATE:  Looks like the songs are correct.  A poster at MJ’s  posted this, which jives with the songs we already knew.

Megan didn’t perform and we never saw her – she had a “wardrobe malfunction.”

Matt Giraud – So Small (played piano)
Scott MacIntyre – I recognized his song, but for the life of me I can’t
remember the name of it. (played piano)
Michael Sarver – Ain’t Goin’ Down Till the Sun Comes Up
Allison Iraheta – Blame It on Your Heart
Kris Allen – To Make You Feel My Love (sat on a stool)
Adam Lambert – Ring of Fire (very sexy Eastern-influenced version that pretty
much made every woman over the age of 20 in the audience ready to jump him)
Lil Rounds – Independence Day
Danny Gokey – Jesus, Take the Wheel (partial standing O)
Alexis Grace – Jolene
Anoop – You Were Always on My Mind

Not sure if the performance order is correct since I didn’t take notes. The
first four are definitely correct, although again we don’t know where Megan is
in the lineup since she didn’t perform. It definitely seemed to me like they
were saving the “fan favorites” for the second half. Adam and Danny by far got
the biggest audience reaction, both before, during, and after their
performances. Right now it seems like they are the clear front-runners.
Everyone else was good, but they both had that extra something.

Previous, from Erika:

Adam-Ring of Fire
Alexis-Jolene
Danny-Jesus Take the Wheel
Lil-Independence Day
Kris- some ballad but she didn’t know what one

Also, Dannys cousin commented on Facebook that Danny was singing Carrie Underwood, so the above does fit….

Could Adam be using Dilana’s Version from Rockstar, perhaps?

    I hope Adam rocks Ring of Fire. I remember when Dilana did it on Rockstar, and I hope he kills it like she did. I’m surprised about Lil. I figured she’d pick I Will Always Love You.

    Oh my gosh, I cannot wait to hear Adam!! I really hope he’s doing this song. Ohh and I wonder if it would be too much to ask for him to bring his Walk Thru Fire stage show with him. :) That would be smokin’ hot if ya ask me!! Danny doing Jesus Take The Wheel?? Ummm ok…whatever!! *lol*

    That rumor about Anoop was based on a rumor that was posted on the american idol forum that said he was rearranging a recent hit. That was posted days ago so no one really knows how credible that is. There wasn’t much to go on.

    Damn, I was hoping for a real ballad from Adam this week. But he’ll rock it out.

    Well, this is intriguing, maybe I won’t be disappointed.

    I thought Adam would do a ballad, too, but hey, if it went over really well, no complaints here. ;) I can’t wait to see the show tonight!!!

    I am so excited!

    Adam may have avoided a ballad because so many others are, and he wants to stand out. It will be really interesting to hear his take on it. I love that he is singing an iconic song from an iconic Opry member and is staying away from female artists….

    Aha!!! I bet my daughter $10 last week that Adam would sing Ring of Fire!!!!! Woo hoo!

    mj’s site has the arrangement accredited to Dilana’s version from RockStar
