These are the songs that made the cut, as reported by TVLine on May 7.
For Jessica Meuse
Lady Gaga's You and I
Kelly Clarkson's Since U Been Gone
For Jena Irene:
Elvis Presley's Can't Help Falling in Love
Pat Benatar's Heartbreaker
For Caleb Johnson:
Paul McCartney's Maybe I'm Amazed
Bon Jovi's You Give Love A Bad Name
For Alex Preston:
Coldplay's Yellow
Alex Clare's Too Close
TVLine thinks that Johnson's song choice might be "disastrous" since Blake Lewis' performance of You Give Love A Bad Name is one of the greatest Idol moments of all time. Also Meuse covering Kelly Clarkson, the original Idol winner, well that just seems like a trap waiting to happen.
