American Idol: The Top 24's Motown Week Song Choices Revealed!
They’re singing oldies, but will they be goodies?
American Idol‘s Season 14 semifinalists are gearing up for a second week of performances from Detroit — tonight and Thursday (8/7c on Fox) — and TVLine’s got the exclusive scoop on their Motown-themed song choices.
We’ve got the entire 24-track set list — but while all of last week’s performers prepped tunes and received some mentoring from living legend Aretha Franklin, only 16 of ‘em will take the stage.

Four guys will be cut tonight and four women sent to the guillotine on Thursday based on last week’s public vote — without getting to step to the mic.
But let’s not get caught up in the horror of early eliminations — and instead focus our attention on who made savvy selections and who looks primed for a pelting with overripe tomatoes:
