VIDEO: Burnell Taylor Sings for Survival on AMERICAN IDOL

After receiving the lowest number of votes on the Top 7 results show on last night's AMERICAN IDOL, BurNell Taylor sang for survival. It was up to the judges to use their sole "save of the season" to keep him in the competition. Unfortunately for the 19-year-old from New Orleans, LA, who sang "You Give Love A Bad Name" by Bon Jovi on Wednesday's Classic Rock-themed performance show, was eliminated from the competition.
