The twentieth season of the reality show singing competition American Idol premiered on February 27, 2022 on the ABC television network.

Bobby Bones did not return as in-house mentor.
“Lodi” is a song written by John Fogerty and performed by Creedence Clearwater Revival. Recorded in March 1969, it describes the plight of a down-and-out musician whose career has landed him playing gigs in the town of Lodi (pronounced “low-die”), a small agricultural community in California’s Central Valley, located around 35 miles (56 km) southeast of Sacramento and 75 miles (121 km) northeast of Fogerty’s hometown of El Cerrito.
After playing in local bars, the narrator finds himself stranded and unable to raise bus or train fare to leave. Fogerty later said he had never actually visited Lodi before writing this song, and simply picked it for the song because it had “the coolest sounding name.” However, the song unquestionably references the town’s reputation as an uninteresting farm settlement, though the narrator does not make any specific complaints. The song’s chorus, “Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again,” has been the theme of several city events in Lodi.
