American Idol contestant Jax will sing the popular song “Are You Gonna Be My Girl” by the Australian band Jet. You’ll recognize it from that old Apple iPod commercial or from the video game soundtracks of Madden NFL 2004, Guitar Hero: On Tour and Rock Band.

It’s a great song for Jax who likes to rock it out on stage. It’s fun and upbeat. But the song is about a boy who wants a girl who’s with another boy. It’s not like Jax can change the lyrics to “Are You Gonna Be My Boy.” Or can she? It’s a brave choice. You can watch her perform on American Idol on April 22 at 8pm on Fox.
