Actually, Sweet Dreams is a song that will force her to slow down and not scream. It could showcase her actual original-sounding tone.
But that Morissette song - sheesh. They might as well have given her “Louie Louie” or Hansons’ “Umm Bop”!!! Somebody up there hates you, Haley! And if you sing the blow job lyric they might as well not give out your voting number.
‘American Idol’: Nigel Lythgoe Slams ‘Morons’ Once Again

As this season of American Idol comes to a close, there is once again controversy. Fans were upset and called foul after the elimination of James Durbin last week, and now Nigel Lythgoe is once again slamming back against the rumors and speculation that the competition is manipulated.
According to MTV, Lythgoe said the following about the latest Idol controversy at a press conference for So You Think You Can Dance on Monday: “The ones that believe we manipulate everything, it drives me crazy sometimes. ‘How dare you let James go from “Idol”!’ ‘We know that you hate Haley!’ This is just crazy. I always end up having to go, ‘You morons out there ...’ or something like that, and realize that I’m arguing with 7 or 8-year-olds from Wisconsin. It’s annoying, because ‘Idol’ of all shows, really goes with what the public demands, whether we like it or not.”
Nigel Lythgoe has always been outspoken when it comes to American Idol and So You Think You Can Dance. While his focus is now transferring to that latter series, he is still very much involved with Idol. With shocking eliminations a part of the series, fans will continue to be outraged in the future and blame the system used to select who goes on and who doesn’t. It is easy to blame technology.
Maybe the blame has to go to the lack of votes? There is no doubt James Durbin and Pia Toscano are talented, but neither had enough votes to make it forward. Their careers will continue on without Idol.
