Does anyone have the gospel truth on WHO chose the song?
In today's West Australian it said....quote:
"it was revealed yesterday that the show's producers picked Wonderful World for Sebastian from three choices. Dickson said he was happy with the choice."
I saw Guy on TV saying that he was going to sing WW because it was Christmas etc, BUT...it looked like the middle of an interview and he may have been justifying one of his choices.
The song choice was everything!!!!!!Hmmmmm.

So it may not have been the ideal song but he has sang it so many times before and even chose it as his song on Idol Cast album so he obviously really likes it. He sang it well and as long as he knows we think that, he'll be proud of the job he did as well.

We could try e-mailing Guy himself via his official website. I know we'd get the truth and nothing but the truth from Guy... but he said (on the site) that he's really busy and he won't be able to send a personal reply-- he'll be choosing one e-mail and replying to it so everyone can see...... but with a question like that we might get chosen

He sang it well and as long as he knows we think that, he'll be proud of the job he did as well. I definitely agree as well. He wanted to do the song (whether he chose it himself or not : and if he knows Australia liked it, he's happy. That was his goal through singing in the first place-- to make people happy!!! ;D GO THE FRO!!! You've definitely made me happy! ;D

OK, I sent the e-mail. I wrote this: ************* Hi Guy, Well done on your performance in WI. Everyone in Australia is proud of you, don't worry about your placing! I'm a member of the Inside Australian Idol forum, and there seems to be a lot of confusion about the method the songs were chosen-- lots of people would like to know! I figured the best person to ask would be you, Guy, so on behalf of all the interested people on the forum I'm asking-- who chose the songs and how? Did you want to sing What a Wonderful World, or did someone force you to? Once again, well done! GO THE FRO!!! ******************** I hope it's along the right lines

My guess is that several people had input into which song was chosen. If you add all the stories together-it is the only thing that makes sense!
