    Being as Josh is a rocker at heart, we’ve yet to see him belt out a great rock tune. I say Josh sould sing one of HIS favourite rock songs as I’m sure it’ll rock our world;).

    • Sam says:

      I would also love to hear some Josh sing some rock. Also, there isn’t a rocker on X Factor — he could gain some more fans!

    I’d like to hear you sing “Nothing else matters” by Metallica

  6. Loco says:

    Joe Cocker….no matter, just pick the one you think is more suitable for you.

  7. Lajovette says:

    Meatloaf – I would do anything for love but I won’t do that.

  8. John says:

    #singbeastsing

  12. jphk says:

    Hollywood Night or Mainstreet by Bob Seger
    Anything by Joe Cocker (especially 60s and 70s)
    Gregg Allman, Little Feat, The Band, & CCR would be nice, too

  13. Thomas Christiansen says:

    I think Josh should sing Soldier Of Fortune or Ain’t No Love In The Heart Of The City both sung brilliantly by David Coverdale. Josh you can do it!

  14. Kimberly bader says:

    Way to go representing Midwest!!! I know here in Indiana we are proud!! Loved your voice since first audition and picked you for finals then!

  15. shayna says:

    I would love to hear you sing some Mr. Big….be with you.!! You would remake that song.

  16. Salina says:

    How about some Otis Redding, B.B. King or maybe Mumford and Sons?

  17. Christina says:

    My husband and I agree with all the Joe cocker comments but we also detect the same sweetness as bob seger. Best of luck!! Would also like to hear you sing lady by Lionel Ritchie also sung by Kenny Rogers

  18. Tania says:

    Ray lamontagne!!!!!!!!

  19. Brad Chaney says:

    Sing “End of the Innocence” by Don Henley or “Alone” by Heart

  20. jmo says:

    Hey man, you are the best singer in the competition and you are a real artist, one can only imagine your talent. I would like you to sing 2 songs that you have sung on youtube, Mother less child or Shorn! Those songs are amazing and you should do them! Or if you can’t do your own songs do You Raise me Up by Josh Groban.
    Im pulling for ya!

  21. Angeltwist says:

    Josh I’m afraid that if you continue with the ballads you are not showing the world what all you have to offer. Pick up the tempo and show us you can really rock it out.

  22. marcos says:

    I’d love to see you sing some Damien Rice. His intensity on the BBC special fits your passion.

  23. Terri says:

    id love to hear a redition of a BOB SEGAR song—hes been my favorite—-yu did Joe Crocker justice tonite !!!

  24. Cathy DeNu says:

    Josh, awesome job!! Joe Bonamassa’s “Asking around for you”, or anything where you can “bring down the walls”!!! You’ve got it ~ You consistently amaze!!

  25. Will duplicate another of my posts ~ Ray Charles, or Jerry Lee Lewis “Great Balls of Fire”!! Bring down the house and we’ll declare “Game Over”!! YAY!! Here’s your Rap Challenge: Kid Rock “Cowboy”!! June A would have fun dressing you for any of those!!

  26. Thanks for the informative article, it was a good read and I hope its ok that I share this with some facebook friends. Thanks.
    My travel blog Top Travel Destinations.

  27. humanstepable says:

    I would like to hear ur song ”As long as it takes”..You’re great when your rock but I like u best in your laid-back style doing ballads..Best of luck, Josh..

  28. Elizabeth Roper says:

    I would love to hear Josh sing some Otis Redding!! “These Arms of Mine”

  29. Rick VanDerWal says:

    I Knew You Once by josh. fantastic song with him playing piano

  30. Pierre Robillard says:

    IT wouldn’t matter what you sing, it will be great , so since you can make everything sound great , why not “For crying out loud” MeatLoaf/Jim Steinman.

  31. Mike Johnson says:

    Any of Barry White’s songs would be fantastic..and I think it would cross-over with the fans…just at the Pretender brought many many new fans to his side…Perhaps..The First My Last My Everything or Let the Music Play..Josh ur destined to become another world wide star like Barry White.

  32. Linda says:

    Something that will surprise us. I was surprised at your renditions of At Last and First Time Ever I Saw Your Face. Songs sung by women but you made it yours.

    Bridge Over Troubled Water? that may surprise us, yes?
    Stairway to Heaven?

  33. Linda says:

    came back to also suggest
    Jimi Hendrix
    Janis Joplin

  34. Linda says:

    and if it’s theatre, then something from
    Les Mis or Phantom of the Opera!
    good luck and aloha from Hawaii

  35. Dave G says:

    Please play anything origional. Everything on Ghosts and Atavistic is by far more expressive vocally and musically.

  36. Patricia Schneider says:

    Love ya Josh. How about the song “America the Beautiful” your way!

  37. Brewster says:

    Will they do country? Bound to, “Anymore” by Travis Tritt should be a home run for you. Take it to the finish Josh.

  38. Karen says:

    Please sing Dragonfly by Sharmans Harvest – it would show off your voice and just be incredible!

  39. Cathy D says:

    Hey, Josh……….Melissa Ethridge “Come to my Window”, Joe Bonamassa “Sloe Gin”, “BallPeen Hammer”, “If Heartaches were Nickels” ,”Asking Around for You”, Jerry Lee Lewis “Great Balls of Fire”, Garth Brooks “The Dance”. Reading up the list, so much good music!

  40. Susan says:

    Nothing else matters by Metallica one of my favourite rock songs… I can visulise you singing this song Josh

  41. Your rendition of At Last by Etta James and then Roberta Flacks First Time Ever I Saw Your Face, drew me in and held and healed my heart. Your voice got under my skin, into my veins and went straight to my heart.
    I didn’t think any song could ever move me or get to me. I was wrong. Every song you’ve sung has left me wanting to hear more.
    Dirty Diana didn’t do it though, flat.
    Wild Horses was perfect, and would love to just about any love song you sing. Oh What a Nite, by the Dells, or Since I fell for you, or You Send Me by Sam Cooke or How am I Supposed to Live Without you like Laura Branigan. Like I said just about any one old or new, you’d make it yours.
    Truly can’t wait until your first full album comes out. I’ll be one of the first in line to get it. I don’t like the X Factors
    M{3 put outs though because they are only part of great songs,
    my heart wants them all, the complete versions.

  42. Cathy D says:

    Aretha Franklin, “I ain’t never loved a man the way that I love you”. Josh, you could make this your own………….hit the guitar a bit, and let it rip!!

  43. Kathleen C says:

    Josh, I really want to hear you sing The Pull live again . . . or Shorn stripped down. Tugs at my heart strings everytime <3

  44. Janelle says:

    Anything by Seether! Josh’s voice would be well suited to Shawn Morgans songs. “Rise Above This” or “Broken”.

  45. Cathy D says:

    Do you think you could sing something with a choir backing up ~ too bad there’s not enough $$$ for you to have the Selected of God choir (SuperBowl Chrysler commercial) behind you! Talk about superior song selection……….or “When you walk thru the storm, hold your head up high ~ walk on, walk on”! You’d command that song!!

    Spreading the word for you, Josh!

  46. Cathy D says:

    Don’t know if you could get clearance, but hands down, it’d be yours! Nuff said!

  47. Linda Brackett says:

    Definitely…..All By Myself…..Eric Carmen

  48. Pauline says:

    Would love to hear some Bob Seiger

  49. Pauline says:

    Would also love to hear “Nothing Else Matters” Metallica

  50. judy says:

    Would love to hear something by BOB SEGAR Turn the pages. Love you Josh. You are a true winner in my book.

  51. Dave Cruikshank says:

    Love you Josh you have been our household pick since say 1.

    Unchain my heart. By Joe Cocker

    Allison by Elvis Costello

    Try a little tenderness Wilson Pickett

    You are so beautiful. Joe Cocker

    When love came to town. BB King U2

    House of the Rising Sun. Animals

    It’s a man’s world.

    Purple Rain by Prince. You could kill this

    None of this will matter because I’m sure you picked your song and are ready to go with it. Whatever you do, you’ll tug at our hearts with Shock and Ahh like you always do. You haven’t dissapointed yet.

    Stay thirsty my friend

  52. Linda Kilgore says:

    Wow….House of the Rising Sun would be phenominal….but so would anything else you choose….your gift is to take any song and make it your own….you conform the song, it doesnt conform you….OMG….that is such an amazing gift to have music pouring out of your soul! The best of luck tomorrow….Im taping so I can listen again and again…..whatever happens….Josh deserves a recording contract….first concert…..in Columbus (ok….or Wooster …lol…..wouldnt miss it!). ROCK OUT JOSH….and bring it on home!

  53. Atta Girl says:

    Josh, your voice is indescribable. Every song I hear, I imagine what it would sound like with you singing it (the good ones anyway). In case you don’t already know it, your voice is liquid sex. And the growl…(dead). I thought “The Pretender” was one of your best performances. More hard rockers like that please on your next release.
