Elliot Yamin - Night and Day. Have 99% confirmed that this is Eliot's song choice this week.
Kellie Pickler - Someone To Watch Over Me. Only about a 75% confirmation on this one. People who have been very accurate say this is the song so I trust them, but Kellie insiders will not confirm or deny.
Chris Daughtry - Night and Day. I actually nailed this pick last week :-). Chris insiders gave out clues last night that it is a Cole Porter song. Frank Sinatra hit, and covered by a rock band (U2). Other clue was it contains a line that will make the ladies swoon right before the big ending.
Second to last line of Night and Day - "Until you let me spend my life making love to you", followed by big "Night and Day, Day and Night" ending.
Confirmed this is the song through email with Chris' insider, so 99% confident. Also, he said Chris will be dressed as a Rat Packer tonight, and is going for the Torch singer Sinatra version. Could be the MOMENT.
Desperately trying to pin down Taylor's song, but no luck so far. Am hoping for "What a Wonderful World" or "You Send Me".
Um...so Elliott and Chris are singing the same song?
Mobile Register has an article about Hicks having been spoofed on SNL.

You've made something on an impression on the popular culture when you're fodder for the "Saturday Night Live" spoof mill.
Alabama singer Taylor Hicks, a favorite contestant on Fox's "American Idol," was the subject of an amusing send-up this past weekend on "SNL." The live, late-night and long-running NBC comedy program both poked fun at and celebrated Hicks during a mock interview segment during which Tina Fey asked questions of Hicks, who was played with apparent enthusiasm by "SNL" regular Jason Sudeikis.
In Hicks guise, Sudeikis sported the gray hair over dark eyebrows so associated with the 29-year-old singer from Birmingham, who competes among seven finalists tonight on Fox's prime-time singing contest.
