Some on the AI site are saying Damien will be singing Nessun Dorme and Unchained Melody! OMG I think I just died and went to heaven. What exquisite songs for Damien!
Hope it's true.

"Swoons" hey, apparently yes it is true, we have had a few 'hints' that this is the case.. What a selection, I don't listen to Opera, but if he can nail it, then this will be the one to get him to the Opera House....yipppeeeee.

Hoy crap....thanks for the links Winter...I just listened to Michael boltons version...and I think Damien could do far better than that......just worried about the Italian...maybe he is brilliantly fluent in that as well....he's talented in everything else..what a great surprise to find out that our man can speak Italian as well...*faints*.... I heard that the the Idols are possibly singing 3 songs and the judges were choosing one...whatever that means...do you know what exactly the arrangement is going to be.....like are the two songs both from the judges or just one?

Holy crap indeed if this is true! Both are awesome pieces of music - I guess if he's singing Italian he will have been practicing a fair bit...

I really hope it's true. It's going to be a real challenge for him, but I think those two songs will steal the show. I had a look around, and the songs that Dean and Jessica are supposed to be singing are fantastic too - Jess's in particular.
Can't wait to find out now!

OMG! Thanks so much Winterlong for the link! I love Michael Bolton but I agree with roxychic and agree that Damien can do better.
I can't take this excitement. I am gonna have to have a chill pill or perhaps just a scotch or two before Sunday & Monday comes around.
I think Pavarotti has done a version as well. I am absolutely blown away ... wait until Sunday and I won't be able to contain myself. Damien is a superstar!

Just listened to Andrea Bocelli's version and Pavarotti's version of Nessum Dorma - nearly blew up the speakers! If it is true that Damo is singing it - it will be a very stirring performance.
I also just watched Roy Orbison's version of 'Crying' - awesome.

WOW, what amazing songs again for next weekend.. I'm sure Damien will overcome the whole Italian thing no problem. I can't wait now to hear him singing Nessum Dorme, it is an amazing song, i love Andrea Bocelli singing it but i'm sure i love the D man singing it more and i'll soon be sitting round going "Andrea Who??"...

OMG.....I dont think I have heard either of those songs, but judging by your reactions I'm guessing Damien is gonna do a great job? As always, lol. ;DItalian....hmmmm interesting...maybe he is secretly fluent in Italian, and is saving it until this week to blow everyone away with it..... *rushes off to listen to the songs* I'll be back to tell you what I think!!!! xXx

Oh, I get..... I think..... We have an Irish singer, singing an Italian song on Australian Idol. Only Damien himself could pull that one off!
