This week, Jessica Meuse, Alex Preston, Caleb Johnson and Jena Irene will be taking on "Break Up and Make Up" anthems, and now the song list has appeared on online. -

'American Idol' Season 13 recap: Jessica Meuse and C.J. Harris refuse to come alive for top 6 rock and country night [VIDEOS]
American Idol got a little bit country and a little bit rock 'n' roll and a little bit of Grumpy Cat last night for its top six performances.

'American Idol' Season 13 recap: Dexter Roberts doesn't crack top 6 after being too darn generic

'American Idol' Season 13 recap: top 7 choice songs predictable as Jena Irene, Alex Preston break out [WATCH]
After two weeks in the top eight, American Idol is finally down to seven contestants this week and decided to let the remaining singers show their real stuff (yet again) with their own choice of song. Thus, the picks were pretty predictable and everyone performed thusly. It's pretty well established who the stars are on this season of Idol -- Jena Irene, Alex Preston and Caleb Johnson, and those three had the strongest showings. The mediocre singers were mediocre and the boring guys were boring. -
American Idol Summer Tour will hit fewer dates during 2014
Plans were laid out last night for the annual American Idol Summer Tour.

'American Idol' Season 13 recap: Malaya Watson goes home after wasted Sam Woolf save [VIDEO]
Last week, American Idol used its one season save on Sam Woolf... a decision that was definitely going to have consequences when a more talented singer, before the top six, got the boot. And it only took one week for a big take down. Last night (April 10), the soulful, sassy high school band geek Malaya Watson was sent back to tuba class. -

With past Idol favorite David Cook as this week's mentor, the cream of this year's crop rose to the top with some super solid performances.

'American Idol' season 13 commentary: judges use save on Sam Woolf... was it the right decision? [VIDEO]
The Top 8 on American Idol remain intact, though they're much less safe than before. For the third week in a row, last night 17-year-old Floridian babyface Sam Woolf found himself in the dreaded Idol bottom three, but this week, he was spared from being sent to retirement and was given another chance. Yes, the judges buckled and finally used the one save per season on Sam. But, did they make the right choice? -
'American Idol' Season 13 recap: Top 9 show growth during rock-themed week as Caleb Johnson nails Led Zeppelin
"I'm with the band!" is something each of the American Idol season 13 contestants have had to say before they were plucked from obscurity, thus, it is the theme of the top 9 week this year.
