rk – they’re all great food for thought – some of these contestants could use your help I’m thinking. If Garcia could pull off something like Beast of Burden he could throw himself back into the competition. Or, if he doesn’t pull it off, throw himself under a bus.

I think that the for sure, Paige will flunk the Rolling Stones idea. She will not be able to sing very well, because of the theme. She is never really good, in my honest opinion.

Because I have no life (natch), I was looking through YouTube to see if there were any cover versions of “Paint It, Black” that could be similar to what Siobhan is going to give us. Perhaps the closest version to her vocal range may be from Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, a New England-based rock band (I would guess that Siobhan has probably heard of them). Their version can be heard here:

Another version that could be similar is Vanessa Carlton’s 2002 cover, which can be heard here:

I am starting to think that this performance will have an “Adam Lambert does ‘Ring of Fire’” vibe, which can be either be a good thing or bad thing (depending on your perspective.

If Siobhan does the Vanessa Carlton version of Paint it Black (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFu_sHcebTQ) it will be amazing.

i think didi should sing streets of love! the high notes would sound beautiful with her tone of voice! I also think that paint it black is a cool choice for siobhan. I can already imagine her hitting those amazing notes by the end of the song

I thought u made it clear rk. It will be interesting to see which ones are right

rk349097: Guys, I don’t want to burst your bubble, but the only song choice that Access Hollywood had reported on was Siobhan’s (this was posted on MJ’s blog).The rest were pure speculation on my part.Please don’t take my guesses as a legitimate spoiler, as they weren’t intended to be.I deeply apologize that I wasn’t more clear with that in my previous post.

Felicia: So I get that the song choices aren’t final, But are these the 12 songs that will be picked?Felicia

Felicia, the songs that I had listed were taken from a larger list that is accessible via iTunes. As far as I know, the contestants are able to choose any song from that list, not just the 12 that I posted. Again, I'm really, really sorry if my post was taken as a spoiler. Only Siobhan's song choice has been leaked (and I don't really know if Access Hollywood has it right, if I'm being honest) as of today.

So the only certainty is “paint it black”?
