Daughtry - Battleships - Live on The Talk - Video

Daughtry is making its way back into the spotlight after what seems like several years spent serving as background music for when contestants are told they're advancing from Hollywood Week to the next round on American Idol (seriously, "What About Now" is bordering on Official Anthem status for that segment).

The band has a new album coming out, titled "Baptized", and it already has a pretty catchy lead single: "Battleships". Daughtry appeared on CBS daytime chat show The Talk to perform the new song, and if you could understand anything being said, you have better hearing than I do. Don't know if it was Chris's weird approach to microphone handling, or just a bad sound mix, but even a muffled Chris Daughtry makes for a better vocalist than the majority of rock singers on the circuit today, for my money. You can watch the full video of the performance below:

Baptized just hit stores today. You can download it via iTunes here.
