thevoiceswimmer 32 Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 (edited) Hi everyone, it's been a while but with everything going on in the world, I thought it was important to step back and educate myself on A LOT of issues. One of my favorite topics pre update was the topic of what songs contestants were gonna sing if they had gone through to the next round and it never got renewed after the update :(. But that is why I am here. I remember very few of the actual songs so please comment them and I will add them! I actually also found 3 of my own too to add so if you ever find any please comment and I will update! Season 2 *Naia Kete- "What's Up" 4 Non Blondes (Was going to do a reggae version of this song, but could not get it cleared before her elimination) *Erin Willet- "Somebody to Love" Queen (Semifinals, switched to "Without You" after a few days of not feeling the song) Season 5 Jonny Gray "Be My Baby" The Ronettes (Top 10 Week) Season 6 "This is Home" Switchfoot (Top 5, Was supposed to sing instead of Some Nights but could not clear in time) Season 7 Matt McAndrew “Imagine” John Lenon (Semi Finals Wildcard) Craig Wayne Boyd "Anymore" Travis Tritt (Semi Finals Wild Card) Chris Jaminson "I'll Be" Edward McCain (Semi Finals Wild Card) Season 9 Andi & Alex "Summertime Sadness" (Playoffs) Ellie Lawerence “New Americana” Halsey (Top 12 Week) Jeffery Austin "Alive" Sia (Top 10 week, but then Sia was announced to sing it on the results show the following day so he switched to Jealous) Barrett Baber “Have a Little Faith in Me” John Hiatt (Instant Save) Season 10 Kathrine Ho “Brave” Sara Barellies (Playoffs) Ryan Quinn “It Knocks Me Off My Feet” Stevie Wonder (Top 12) Tamar Davis “My Everything” Ariana Grande (Top 12) Caroline Burns “When We Were Young” Adele (Top 12) Owen Danoff “Let It Go” James Bay (Top 10) Nick Hagelin “Die a Happy Man” Thomas Rhett (Semifinals) Alisan Porter “Wreaking Ball” Miley Cyrus (Instant Save) Nick Hagelin “Midnight Train to Georgia” Gladys Knight (Instant Save) Season 12 Hunter Plake “Yellow” Coldplay (Finale) Hunter Plake “Float” Original (Finale) Season 14 Brynn Cartelli “TBD” Sam Smith (Original Finale Cover) Season 15 *Michael Lee "Satisfaction" Ian Moore (Blind Audition) Chevel Shepherd “Walking After Midnight” Patsy Cline (Instant Save) Season 16 Beth Griffith Manley “TBD” Fantasia (Knockouts, Beth said in a live that everyone had knockout song choices already rehearsed before the switch to Cross Battles and she had a Fantasia song ready) Julian King “Best Part” Daniel Cesar Mari “Figures” Jesse Reyez (Top 8 Week) *Jej Vinson "Whenever You Call" Mariah Carey & Brian McKnight (Kelly reserved the song for the Finale as their duet) Maelyn Jarmon "Neon Moon” Brooks & Dunn (Instant Save) Season 18 Allegra Miles "Without Me" Halsey (Finale Solo) Todd Tilghman “God Bless the Broken Road” Rascal Flatts (Instant Save) *Ones that I found Edited August 3 by thevoiceswimmer 2 Link to post Share on other sites
QueenMae16 1,667 Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 Maelyn was actually gonna sing "Neon Moon" (Brooks and Dunn) if ever in the Instant Save. Link to post Share on other sites
Teraginn 1,621 Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 Hunter Plake: Yellow (Coldplay)/Float (Original song) - Finale Matt McAndrew: Imagine (John Lennon) - Semifinale Instant Save Barrett Baber: Have a Little Faith in Me (John Hiatt) - Instant Save Todd Tilghman: Bless the Broken Road (Rascal Flatts) - Instant Save 1 Link to post Share on other sites
TeamAudra 2,900 Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 (edited) Chevel’s instant save - “Walking After Midnight” - Patsy Cline In fact, she posted a video of her rehearsing it on stage. I can’t remember what Brynn’s was. It was talked about in her thread that got erased with the changeover. I’ll just say it’s a good thing she didn’t have to sing it. That much I remember. ETA: Now I recall it was a Sam Smith song, but I can’t remember which one. Edited July 25 by TeamAudra Link to post Share on other sites
TeamAudra 2,900 Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 (edited) A quote from Joanna Serenko’s thread... “Joanna is on IG Live right now, mentioned that she had been planning to sing "Bring It On Home to Me" by Sam Cooke for the finale. Her original song would have been "Sister of Nostalgia," she worked with Blake and Shane McAnally.” - rhapsody99 Edited July 25 by TeamAudra Link to post Share on other sites

VintageVoice 2,089 Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 I remember in an Instagram live Will Breman half-jokingly mentioned he wanted to do Old Town Road if he made it through to the finale, but I'm not sure that would've actually happened. Link to post Share on other sites

VintageVoice 2,089 Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 According to Wikipedia, the semifinals wildcard choices for S7 that CWB and Chris had prepped were: CWB: "Anymore" by Travis Tritt (the same song Todd T. did for his KO this past season) Chris: "I'll Be" by Edwin McCain 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Make it into a simple ballad like he did with Mine Would Be You, or sing it straight? Either way, it would've probably been a complete mess. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
