There are so many Motown songs. In order to narrow it down I looked at 100 Greatest Motown Hits. I also used my imagination. This list is full of the Temptations. I can't help that they were the best.
Scott: He needs to get more interesting (for something other than being legally blind, which he didn't even ask to be known for in the first place). I think that will be very hard for him but it's certainly worth a try. He also needs a fun song to play on the piano because he's not ready to step out from behind it and I don't want him to. Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing by Marvin Gaye. It's a duo song but whatever. It wouldn't hurt if he tried to play two people. I found this Beyonce/Justin Timberlake version. What could be better?
Kris: He's so adorable! He just needs to keep that train going. Kris has showed a fun side and a serious side. AI viewers can't take the ballads too long. This week Kris needs to pull out something more up-tempo and he should bring that guitar back. I suggest Since I Lost My Baby by the Temptations for him. It's an energetic song, but it will also bring out his cute, sensitive side. I think it would suit him well and keep him in this competition another week. He should sing the Temptations version because it's faster than Luther Vandross' version and the general public will be less familiar with it so in a way it will seem new and different to them. The downside is that Simon might say it's a simple song but I still think it would do him well.
Danny: Well, he should choose something that matches his glasses. Since I don't know his glasses, I'll just choose randomly. I think he should sing something a little racy. Danny likes those feel good, preachy songs. It gets tiresome week after week. I am not a Gokey fan but something I feel like I could be pulled in that direction because he has a good voice, he just annoys me. So this week, Danny should switch it up with something we wouldn't expect and do a good job with it. I was thinking something sexy at first but I don't like that idea now. He's not sexy. He'll never be sexy. Did you see him in the Marshmallow Man jacket? It didn't fill itself out. Let's go with... Papa Was a Rolling Stone by the Temptations.
Adam: He scares me. I don't understand him. This week, I want to be happy with him instead of frightened. I think he should tone down the screaming without sacrificing the theatrics. Smiling Faces Sometimes by Undisputed Truth and covered by the Temptations is theatrical and dramatic all on it's own. He won't need to do much to it, which is a good time. Show us you can just sing a song! But at the same time, it's heartfelt, it's passionate. He can also tweak it some. I love that song so if Adam sang this, I just might love him.
