The theme for next week's American Idol with the top 8 is songs from the year you were born. It's pretty much going to be an 80s night and one from the 90s. Cute Monchichi Allison was born in 1992.
So what hit from the year you were born would you sing?
I was born in 1980. I can't decide between two (and this is assuming I can sing....); I'd pick either Olivia Newton John's Magic or Diana Ross' Upside Down!
I love these songs!
Wonder if Simon, Paul, Randy and Kara would think these are good song choices?!


I had to go look up the Top 100 from the year I was born.
TesstarosaLots of surfing songs (Surfin' USA, Surf City, Surfer Girl, wipe Out), songs that were remade in the 70's (Mockingbird, Be My Baby, Da Doo Ron Ron, Go Away Little Girl, I'm Leaving It Up to You)-- the 70's versions are the ones I know.
I have three that I'd probably pick (not that I can sing):
-Puff the Magic Dragon
-Blowin' in the Wind
-Ring of Fire
