IDOL LIVE Blog - Top 4 Results (5/12/10)

Last night showed us that in an overwhelmingly bad season, there are still instances when good vocals shine through. Tonight, however, one finalist must say goodbye. But hey, at least we get to be treated to performances from Daughtry, Bon Jovi and Fantasia (obviously I'm joking about the last one).

To see who I predict will be leaving tonight, see here. And as usual, please feel free to add your two cents throughout the one-hour blogcast. Coverage starts just prior to 9 p.m. ET.

Tonight's blogcast features the music of Allison Iraheta, Ayla Brown, David Cook, Kris Allen and Kristy Lee Cook.

Be sure to check back on Friday for revised predictions.

Daughtry performs, interviewed on 'The View'

Continuing with their full week of promotional appearances in support of their sophomore album release Leave This Town, the guys from Daughtry hung out with Barbara Walters and her crew on ABC's The View this morning, where they performed "No Surprise" and were asked a few questions by co-hosts Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Sherri Shepherd. Watch the segment below:

After the performance, Chris and his band mates talked about the experience they had writing and recording this album and how it compares to the debut. Sherri also brought up a bomb scare that happened at one of Daughtry's shows with Bon Jovi when they were on tour together, which made for a funny story.

Daughtry will next perform tomorrow night on The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien.
