The British are coming! Tonight on American Idol 2010 the remaining Top 9 singers will take to the stage and relive the songs of two of the most famous singers who came to us through during the 1964 British Invasion: Paul McCartney and John Lennon of The Beatles. The song selections will come from these two singer-songwriters rather than The Beatles’ catalog.
Still no confirmation on who will be this week’s mentor, but the obvious suspect would be John Lennon’s ghost Paul McCartney. That’d be a tall order, but maybe we’ll see it happen. If it’s not Paul, who would you think would be a great mentor? And if you say, “Miley,” I’m going to reach through the screen and shake you!

Here is my ranking of the Top 9 for American Idol Season 9 as I see them at the moment from worst to best.
9) Tim Urban is the worst finalist AI has ever had. I can’t stand the fact that he is still on the show and I really don’t care to ever have to write about him again. He is tone deaf and lacks any musical talent whatsoever.
8) Andrew Garcia was so much better last week than any other performace since entering the Top 24 but he needs to continue to deliver to come up on my list.
7) Aaron Kelly – He has some ok moments but nothing spectacular. I think he definitely has the teenie bopper vote.
6) Katie Stevens did much better last week but she is in no way the next American Idol. However to only be 16 years old the girl can continue to improve and could have a career sometime in the future.
5) Siobhan Magnus needs to quit screaming at the end of every song or I think America will get bored and quit voting for her. She fell down the list after last weeks performance.
4) Casey James is one fine man and I love to hear him sing and play the electric guitar and yes I am well aware this is a singing competition and not the search for best looking man but based on the last couple weeks, he has stepped up and done well.
3) Big Mike Lynche has some great vocals and I believe will have a long career in R&B.
2) Lee Dewyze – It pains me not to put him first and if he continues to deliver as he did last week he will move up past Bowersox because he is more current and could actually sale records right now. He is by far the most improved of anyone in the competition.
1) Crystal Bowersox still gets the number one slot and I liked seeing her try something different last week but I do believe Lee is catching up with her so she better watch out.
How would you rank the top 9?

The theme for the Top 9 of American Idol Season 9 is the Lennon/McCartney notebook so basically songs by The Beatles. I wonder if Paul McCartney is the guest mentor next week. None of the songs written by George Harrison will be sung as they are owned by his estate.
Rihanna will sing her new single “Te Amo” on results night but not sure who else is performing with her.
It should be obvious to everyone that Crystal and Lee are your front runners this season but of course from the way things look I wouldn’t discount Tim Urban. I’m thinking Tim will probably sing “Imagine” and could do a decent rendition if he can stay on key.
Several Beatle’s songs have already been sung this season so song choice should be interesting next week. What do you think the contestants should sing?
