Jessica Sanchez performed three songs - a Mariah Carey hit, an Aerosmith smash and a Michael Jackson original - during the "American Idol" Top 3 performance night on Wednesday (Thursday morning in Manila).

For her first song, Sanchez sang Carey's "My All" which was the judges' choice for her. Her rendition had judge Randy Jackson proclaiming, "Absolutely beautiful! The perfectly right song for you!"

Judge Jennifer Lopez echoed Jackson's comment saying, "A hard song! But you did it so beautifully...you didn't even go to the big part at the end and I love that."

Sanchez also received praises for her second song which she chose herself. It was Aerosmith's "I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing."

Judge Steven Tyler, lead vocalist of Aerosmith, said she made the song "greater."

"You do not know what a big deal that is...that note at the end sent everyone into the heavens," J.Lo said.

The third song Sanchez performed was "I’ll Be There" by Michael Jackson, which was selected by "AI" mentor Jimmy Iovine. The performance both got nods from Tyler and Lopez but failed to impress Jackson.

Tyler called it "delicious" while Lopez told Jessica she "almost sounded like Michael!" But Randy shrugged, "I liked it okay. I didn't love it."

Tomorrow's episode will determine who will be facing off in the Finale. Will Sanchez make it to the 'final two' of this year's American Idol Season 11?
