The final eight “American Idol” contestants will sing tune’s from the year they were born on Tuesday evening. So what you will be seeing is a 1980s performance, except from Allison, who is 16 years old. Danny Gokey is the oldest and he was born in 1980.

“American Idol” has arrived again. I don’t really like to count the last two weeks. We just sit back and watch people get their yellow slips, or become dejected when they’re not selected.
Now we’re at a point I like: Fan voting.
So we’ve had a lot of new things this year already: A new judge (Kara DioGuardi), a new way of selecting the top 12, and a new set of singers/personalities.
One thing is for sure, there were at least two strong singers in Tuesday’s line-up. Danny Gokey (right) sang Mariah Carey’s “Hero” and had to be the judge’s favorite. Alexis Grace also brought the house down with her rendition of Aretha Franklin’s “Never Loved a Man.”
Of the 12 performers from Tuesday, who will be the third to stay in the competition? I will say it’s going to be Ricky Braddy, who sang Leon Russell’s “A Song For You.”
What do you think?
