Where on the official site is that?

its on the american idol forums under Taylors personal forum. Apparently, Ryan announced the songs on his radio show.

Yep, although I don't know which of Taylors songs is from the current billboard top 10...... they both seem old to me, The Wild Cherry one is from his birth year, and I think the George Harrison song is also from the 70s

Something is from Abbey Road, which was several years before he was born, so that might be a mistake. I'm sure he would do a good job on it though.

Thats what I thought, although apparently, the album Something by George Harrison is in the top 10 albums? but surely with how pinikity they've been regarding song selection, they'd not allow it? I also read 'over there' that everyone except Kat has had to change at least one of their song choices, and Chris had to change both!

I think somebody screwed up.

Gee what a surprise, A.I. didn't adhere to what they announced they were going to do at the close of last weeks show. From what I see here they DID NOT sing a single song each from Billboards top 10 this week. Apparently there were to many whitebread singers to pull it off

Actually Frank they never specified which Billboard Top 10 list the contestants had to choose from, Billboard maintains over a dozen. And AI mentioned this fact during tonite's show.
