American Idol's theme tonight is reported to be 'Songs From the Movies'. I think I now have correct birth dates for the remaining seven contestants, so, using Sun sign only, a few songs which might suit each hopeful performer:
Allison Iraheta ~ 27 April 1992 - Taurus ruled by Venus - "Stand By Me" (Stand By Me) - because Taurus is Fixed Earth.
Anoop Desai ~ 20 Dec. 1986 - Sagittarius ruled by Jupiter planet of excess - "Everybody's Talkin'" (Midnight Cowboy).
Danny Gokey ~ 24 April 1980 - Taurus ruled by Venus - "Nobody Does It Better" (The Spy Who Loved Me) because nobody does it better than Venus!
Kris Allen ~ 21 June 1985 - Cancer ruled by the Moon - obviously "Moon River"! (Breakfast at Tiffany's)
Lil Rounds ~ 20 October 1984 - Libra, Cardinal Air sign - "I Believe I Can Fly" (Space Jam).
Matt Giraud ~ 11 May 1985 - Taurus Fixed Earth ruled by Venus -"Don't Wanna Miss A Thing" (Armageddon).
Adam Lambert ~ 29 January 1982 - Aquarius Fixed Air ruled by Uranus planet of the unexpected - "Bohemian Raphsody" (Waynes World), but he sang it at his audition, so probably won't duplicate. 2nd choice: "Take My Breath Away" (Top Gun).
UPDATE
Only one song I'd chosen was actually sung - "Don't Want to Miss a Thing" - Allison sang it, not Matt (still Taurus though!). She did a great job with it too.
Best performance: Adam with "Born To Be Wild" - I am reliably informed by Himself that he knocked the Jim Morrison version "out of the ball park! I am an avid fan of Adam. I just wanted to hear him sing every song the others had sung. Guess I've drunk that old Kool-Aid!
Anoop and Danny both sang very well - "Everything I Do" and "Endless Love" respectively. Kris's rendition of "Falling Slowly" from the lovely movie "Once" was very good. Matt and Lil were, for me, the weakest, singing Cohen's "Ever Loved a Woman" (Matt) and "The Rose" (Lil).

Hi! I know it is just a hobby for you ... but would you be interested in doing a chart for my 23 year old son? He is an artist , his work can be seen at:

Anonymous ~~ Oh my ! I'll bet your son has lots of Scorpio and Neptune going on !
I'm a bit busy just now and will be going away at the end of the week, so am sorry that I can't oblige on this occasion.
My colleague Robert Phoenix does all kinds of readings, and I suspect he'd be much more on your son's wavelength than I would be.

Hi,
Since you are writing about American Idol, I wonder if you have seen this?

Tammy ~~~ Yes, thanks for the link here though, others might not have seen it. I saw it on a friend's blog yesterday. What a great voice ! And a lovely lady.
I'd say the other contestants in the UK will have to go some to beat her!
:-)
No Aries? That's a shame.
I used to do a mean Born To Be Wild in my rock days myself :-)
Get yer motor runnin' ...
AN ~~~ No - Aries must not have put on a good enough show at the auditions. Neighbouring Taurus has 3 in the final 7 - Taurus is the musical sign, Aries is the mover and shaker.
You probably moved and shook pretty well, back in the day! Maybe even now! ;-)
