Foehner was back on stage to sing Jungle Love for his Prince song. Then, Barrett returned to sing the Prince tune How Come U Don’t Call Me Anymore? After that, Jurnee sang Back at One, which was her mom and dad’s wedding song.
Turner sang song Manic Monday as her Prince song, alas, forgetting a lyric, but she did her best to rebound. Poppe accompanied herself on the guitar to sing the Sheryl Crow tune If It Makes You Happy.
The last song of the night was Hutchinson performing the iconic Prince tune When Doves Cry.
Once voting was complete the results were read: Woodward, Hutchinson, Foehner, Barrett, and Poppe are now the final five. Alas, Jurnee and Turner were sent home, but the good news is that all seven will be on hand for this summer’s American Idol tour.
American Idol airs Sundays from 8 to 10 p.m. on ABC.
The two-hour season finale will take place on Monday, May 21 from 9 to 11 p.m. on ABC.
