Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Night on Idol
What songs should the final four Idol contestants pick for Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Night Tuesday on American Idol ?
They have a choice of 500 Songs That Shaped Rock and Roll — which is an amazing group of songs to pick from considering their limited choices in the last few episodes.
These 500 songs are some of the most popular ever and cover a variety of artists and genres.
Making the right choice can mean the difference between going home or remaining in the top three. The best thing they can do is connect with the audience by playing a somewhat familiar song, even if they put their own twist on it.
Here are my choices for each contestant:
• David Cook — R.E.M. - Losing My Religion, Steppenwolf - Born to Be Wild or The Rolling Stones - (I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction
• David Archuleta — The Eagles – Hotel California or The Police - Every Breath You Take
• Syesha Mercado — Aretha Franklin – Respect or The Dixie Cups – Chapel of Love
• Jason Castro — Ben E. Keith – Stand by Me or Otis Redding - (Sittin’ on) the Dock of the Bay
Thing there are better songs suited for them? Pick them from the link above and then post your choices in the comments.
