JoesPlace has some possible song spoiler clues up from some girl named Rachel, so let's see if this group will be as mind-numbing as the last one. This could turn out to be an incredibly unreliable tween seeking attention, but at least we can get a preview of what Nick/Normund might be singing. If this is true, it could be awesome.

Jasmine - Madonna had a hit with a different song with the same title as the recent hit that Jasmine is singing. (Sounds like she's doing "Take a Bow" by Rihanna)

Nick - This “salty” standard has been featured in film and covered numerous times, most notably in the 80s. ("Puttin on the Ritz" maybe?)

Adam - One singer of each gender has had a version of this wistful ballad reach the Billboard top 10. (We've narrowed it down to "All By Myself", "Without You", and "Open Arms" All boring as shit. Dude, camp it up!)

Matt G - He takes a turn at a contemporary hit. Hopefully, Matt will live to sing another day. ("Viva La Vida" by Coldplay?)

Actually, Jasmine could be singing Sara Barailles' "Love Song".

Madonna had a "Love Song" co-written by Prince (he may have appeared on the track, too, if I remember correctly) on the "Like A Prayer" album.

"Puttin on the Ritz" would be a fab choice for Normund to perform. I now have visions of "Young Frankenstein" dancing in my head. :)

And I think Adam could camp up "All By Myself" and make it very sexually suggestive, but I think he will stay on the straight and narrow until he makes the finals. Like Tatiana, I sort of hope he doesn't make it so he is required to have a go-for-broke performance Wild Card Week.

So, i'm guessing these are speculations and not the actual songs, wow, hope that Matt guy doesn't sing Viva La Vida because (call me crazy) I love that song, hope he doesn't massacre it, Jasmine is great though ( I have mad love for that girl ), I wonder what Norman will be singing? Womanizer or Toxic (anything Britney Spears) would be great.

I don't know. Adam singing "All by myself" sounds pretty hilarious too me. Could make a deliciously maudlin trainwreck. Oh, eyeliner, why must you bleed? Why?

I don't care what they sing I just hope it's contempory, I am damn sick of hearing contestants singing Whitney, Aretha, Mariah, Elvis and Michael Jackson on my screen!

In spite of what Simon says, you can't beat the Old Broadway Songbook.

For Normund, I'm really torn between "My Heart Belongs to Daddy", "I'm Just a Girl Who Can't Say No", or "Gonna Wash That Man Right Outa My Hair".

Medley, anyone?

Well Joesplace added every Madonna song, so if it's a current hit that Jasmine's singing it's either "Burning Up" by Jonas Brothers dear God no!, "Just a Dream" by Carrie Underwood, doubt it, "Love Song" by Sara Bareillis maybe, "Spotlight" by Jennifer Hudson maybe, or "Take a Bow" Rihanna another maybe. Best bet is Love Song, Spotlight or Take A Bow.

And I heard Adam might be singing Lady Marmalade! That would be classic!

"Matt G - He takes a turn at a contemporary hit. Hopefully, Matt will live to sing another day. ("Viva La Vida" by Coldplay?) "

I was thinking Bond soundtrack "Die Another Day" or "Another Way to Die", no?

If Normund comes out and sings either "Puttin on the Ritz" or "Tainted Love", I will die from the sheer joy of it...

Adam needs to sing some good hard rock and forget the stupid ballads, his voice really isn't suited for them. He just sounds like a whiny ass pansy...step it up Adam! We need both you and Normund in the top 12!!
