According to TVGuide.com, Neil Sedaka is indeed the guest judge but the theme thankfully is not his songs. The theme is the 60's.

Suggestions for song picks?

josh should do the animals' 'house of the rising sun'.

ruben should sing 'Inagoddadavida' LOL just kidding. he should sing 'tracks of my tears'.

trenyce: "it's my party"

clay: "wake up little susie" only he could say, 'wake up little susie, oh! you're hermione!' rather than 'wake up little susie, it's time to go home!'

or he can sing 'whiter shade of pale'...isn't that pre-1970?

kim: "to sir, with love"

hmmmm. 60's-- janis joplin, the doors, jan and dean, chad and jeremy, the beach boys, petula clark, the beatles, most any mo-town, gary lewis and the playboys, jimi hendrix, mason williams, early ronstadt, country joe and the fish, procol harem, and tiny tim. LOL

now that they are down to so few, will they get to sing the entire songs, rather than a shortened version?

Here's what I'd like to hear them sing (sort of off the top of my head):

Clay: Wimoweh Song (The Lion Sleeps Tonight)
Ruben: When a Man Loves a Woman OR On Broadway
Kim L: Natural Woman (GO KIM!)
Trenyce: Proud Mary
Josh: He Ain't Heavy

I think these choices would really stretch those pipes (if they really let themselves go)

If Kim sang Natural Woman I think she would be compared to Kelly Clarkson. Kelly hit that song last year! She had the audience in complete aw.

Kim.......Ain't No Mountain High Enough. Something Motown for Kim and Reuben.

If Kim and Reuben pick Motown songs, this will once again be their night to shine. I agree that Trenyce should pick one of Diana Ross' songs. She is the original Diva.

What's wrong with Neil Sedaka? :)

If they are allowed to pick anything from any medium in the sixties, Clay definitely should pick something Broadway. Kim should pick something with a lot of range and emotion. Ruben should pick any love ballad. Josh or Trenyce, I dont think anything can help either of these two. Josh seems only to be able to perform country songs with any great mastery. Trenyce has no originality at all.

Neil Sedaka is just very bubble gummy. There is no depth to his songs and I dont think they would offer up much of a challenge to any singer. Josh is the only one who will benefit from a Neil Sedaka night.

Oops, didn't know that, Hobbs (only watched one episode last year...didn't get any TV signal at all where I lived (in the valley of a valley and no cable). THIS YEAR I'M SET!!!!

Anyway, I just picked those songs because I thought they weren't really typical of their styles...lots of moving and shaking and slinking, you know.
