It's a battle of the opposites on the last performance night of American Idol's Season 11, and we're breaking down Jessica and Phillip's final performances. Hey Idols, you're watching your friend ClevverMusic. Last night saw American Idol Season 11's Top 2, Jessica and Philip, go head-to-head in three rounds in their final performances. Special guest Jason Derulo performed new song 'Undefeated' and last year's winner, Scotty McCreery, performed "Please Remember Me."
The 3 song rounds of the night included first a song choice by American Idol creator Simon Fuller, then the contestant's favorite song of the season, and finally they will debut their potential winning Idol single.

In the first round Jessica Sanchez started off the night by belting Whitney Houston's "I Have Nothing" and Phillip Phillip's did a daring new arrangement of the classic song "Stand By Me." We think Jessica's song lacked emotion, but Randy Jackson said that Jessica won that round.
In round two Jessica sang her favorite of the season "The Prayer" and Phillip sang "Movin' Out" which he sang on Billy Idol week. The judges were torn on this round on who sang better, and we think it was a dead heat in round 2.
In the third round Jessica debuted "Change Nothing" her potential Idol win single, a love song about her perfect guy. The judges critiqued the song itself, but to be fair, that's not Jessica's choice, and Jessica agreed she would have liked something "more Urban." Phillip sang his single, "Home," a folk song about making his love a new life. The judges stood for this one, the only standing ovation of the night. The judges unanimously loved the song. Randy Jackson called it "Brilliant. Genius."
