Song Choice For American Idol. So I want to do American Idol next season (Season 7) and I'm not sure what song I want to do, but I want to start practice now. I'm thinking about At Last by Etta James but then I heard Simon's favorite song is Unchained Melody (the song in the movie Ghost). Any suggestions?

Unchained Melody is really hard to sing. I think it would be best to avoid it. He's not going to like you just because you sing his favorite song. He's going to judge your voice just the same. What you need to do is find the song that compliments your voice the most. Unchained Melody probably won't. My advice would be to seek professional advice. Find a voice coach, or trainer, or whatever they call them and get their opinion. I wish you the very best of luck. :) ]
I wouldn't do his favorite song, my personal self. Simply because he is so critical, if you mess up on his favorite song, he is going to be extra hard on you. Keep that in mind...
Be sure to pick a song that is excellent when sang a Capella (without musical accompaniment). Some songs sound so good when you sing along with music, but are very hard to sing without the tunes to keep your beat.
I'm not sure of your singing style, or your musical interest, but Amazing Grace and the Star Spangled Banner sound great a Capella, but you need to practice a lot and get it down to a T. Singing a Capella is the hardest way to sing! ]
