There's nothing stopping someone from doing a rock arrangement of Ring of Fire (or any other song, really), as illustrated by Social Distortion upthread, but Idol didn't even bother to do that. The version on the show was a straight country rendition. They just don't seem to care.

The only "research" necessary was to listen to the song -- that was country, not rock.
