Latin Week on American Idol

Wednesday April 11, 2007
It's Latin week on American Idol so I was glued to my TV waiting to see what musical choices the remaining eight contestants would make as they put some tropical moves on this weeks performances.

Jennifer Lopez is the guest coach on this week's show and the music owed a lot to Gloria Estefan and Carlos Santana, with a nod to Marc Anthony and Dean Martin. So I've put together a musical commentary for those readers curious about the songs they heard, including a list of links to the songs' most famous versions (and in one case, my favorite version).

Listen to the originals, and compare it to what you hear on American Idol. Then tell us how they compare!

Wednesday's show will feature J-Lo performing her hit single "Que Hiciste" from her new album Como Ama Una Mujer. If you just can't wait, take a moment to watch the video or listen to the song before tomorrow.

The results show is tomorrow so stay tuned!
