Since when has a High School Musical song been an American Classic?

Anyway, other than that they all seem ok, I think Alex could be in trouble tonight though.

Alexandra - Will be amazing, fantastic song choices. Best of the night.

Diana - Two good song choices may struggle with Britney but will be great with REM.

Eoghan - Will be OK for him, two weird song choices.

Ruth - Should be great. Two rock songs will be in her comfort zone and sing her heart out.

JLS - All I can say is =/

HSM on American Classics...not right. Seems Simon might be worried about little Eoghan going home so he's going for the HSM/Camp Rock/Johnas Bothers/Hannah Montana vote.

Beyonce songs should be right up her street, imo.

I actually think Simon wants Eoghan out :\ I think he wants Diana to win and sees him as a threat.

I think Ruth and Eoghan will shine tonight if they pull it off
Ruth has 2 good songs which can show 2 sides of her and show off her vocal talent
I was worried for Eoghan with the Britney song choice but it will work well because its really different from the HSM track.
This could be the week where Ruth and Eoghan gain a lot of support

Together by HSM! That is utterly terrible. Eoghan better go tonight with that crap.

Eoghan is just there to make up numbers, its obvious Simon wanted Austin to (rightly) be the top boy.

Alexandra will be performance of the night (again) with Listen- that was easily the best performance out of all 24 contestants in the judges homes stage.

Oh dear god. Is Simon thinking girls will vote for Eoghan if he sings something from HSM? Does he think because its popular with little girls that they will vote? What is he thinking?! He could have had ANY amazing american classic song. And he gets that. Might as well pack his bags!

Also Listen by Beyonce - when Alex sang this at Cheryls house during boot camp - I loved it and cried and she will improve this time round with this song.

I am very excited about the two songs tonight. Hopefully Eoghan will be out.

Also excited about Ruth's britney number

Eoghan may struggle tonight, excited to see the performances - two songs means that at least one song from every contestant will be top dollar!

well tv will be muted on britney songs so couldnt give 2 hoots what they sing for those
but hsm for eoghan what the hell and even some of the others arent exactly american classics the judges could have really gone for it with some classics but they have gone a bit half hearted over the choices imo
