Phillip Phillips gave a wonderful performance of Bob Seger's We've Got Tonight on American Idol 2012 Top 3 performance night May 16 (May 17 in Manila). The American Idol Season 11Top 3 performs three songs each - one of their choice, one of the judges' choice and one of Jimmy Iovine's choice.
We've Got Tonight is Idol mentor Jimmy Iovine's choice for Phillip Phillips. It seems like Phillip is a shoo-in for the finale with this choice, which earned him a standing ovation from the judges. Phillip's first 2 songs are Madcon's Beggin' and Matchbox 20's Disease (click the links to watch Phillip's performances).
