Old' Favorites to Be Back on Idol?

American Idol" producer Nigel Lythgoe has proposed a way to bring back a number of favorites from past seasons of the FOX reality hit. He proposed augmenting the show’s previously announced songwriting competition with a few popular non-winners and possibly milking a special episode out of the stunt. "They’re talking about doing a song competition on the web and have people write songs for the next ‘American Idol’ finale, because whenever they come out and sing the song at the American finale, the only bloody criticism Randy Jackson can do is ‘Oh, I don’t like that song.’ Well, that’s not very helpful. They’re gonna be putting it out next week and trying to sell it and there’s you saying ‘I don’t like the song,’" Lythgoe explains. He continues, "My idea was: OK, give me 10 songs and I will bring back 10 ‘Idol’ finalists to sing them on a special and then America can really see them. Rather than just have them on the web and download them or whatever, let’s see Constantine Maroulis again. Let’s see Ace Young. Let’s see Vonzell and Tamyra Gray and all the great people we voted for over the years. I’d love to do that and with good reason at the end of the day for doing it, which is to produce the song that the next American Idol’s gonna sing." Lythgoe says that while he’s pitched the network on the idea, he has yet to hear back.

Let us know who you would want to see back.
