00:00:07It's the battles of the battle of the champions.
00:00:11Yes.
00:00:11Battle time.
00:00:12Let's go battle.
00:00:13Let's go.
00:00:14Y'all are on one today.
00:00:15I love it.
00:00:19I was waiting for the beat to drop.
00:00:21That's the beat drop.
00:00:22I think these battles are more competitive than ever because it's just a very powerful
00:00:26artistic season.
00:00:27Give it up to our coaches.
00:00:28But we also want to win.
00:00:31Hey, Blues fans.
00:00:32Benji Madden.
00:00:33My surprise little mentor situation.
00:00:35Adam is oftentimes my advisor.
00:00:38What is he talking about?
00:00:38No, they are.
00:00:39We carpooled here.
00:00:40I know it's cute.
00:00:41Make sure you make a pee-pee before we leave, Benji.
00:00:44Coming, Mark?
00:00:44Oh, nice.
00:00:45It's battle time, and that means it's time for me to bring in the big guns.
00:00:50Money long.
00:00:51Money long is here, y'all.
00:00:52Y'all always wonder what people are looking for when they say that it factor.
00:00:56Like, what is it?
00:00:57You know, you feel it when certain people just have it.
00:00:59It's like, that thing.
00:01:02Man, I'm not your voice family.
00:01:04It is me, J. Hudge.
00:01:06Kelly.
00:01:07I got your back.
00:01:07I've been a coach, a mega mentor.
00:01:10You got the double trouble now.
00:01:12Y'all better look out.
00:01:13Y'all know I brought a shoe.
00:01:14Just in case.
00:01:16The last shoe I threw, the person who I threw the shoe at, guess what?
00:01:20Day one.
00:01:21Will it take a lot for you to throw a shoe today?
00:01:23I can't tell you.
00:01:24It hits my spirit, and I don't even know I threw it.
00:01:26There it goes.
00:01:31I can't tell you.
00:01:32I can't tell you.
00:01:32Our friendship is kind of like me and Blake Sheldon, if I liked Blake Sheldon.
00:01:36Does your wife ever, like, because sometimes when we're texting.
00:01:40No, she'll be like, who are you talking to?
00:01:42Sometimes when we're texting.
00:01:43Why are you giggling?
00:01:43I'm like, I'm just talking to Benji.
00:01:46So, I put these people together, Drew and Jared, and they're both so good.
00:01:49Like, what have I done?
00:01:50You gotta let them find it out.
00:01:52Drew has a cool tone.
00:01:54She had a great sound.
00:01:55Just a cool vibe in general.
00:01:57Jared, I mean, I can tell their soul, and there's a story.
00:02:00I think that there's a country element that connects them.
00:02:05It's really awesome Benji Madden's here.
00:02:07I mean, I grew up on his music.
00:02:09Good Charlotte, that's where I listened to in high school.
00:02:11All the alternative rock.
00:02:13Nice to meet you, man.
00:02:13Jared, it's Benji.
00:02:15Jared, it's good to meet you, man.
00:02:16So, to get his guidance and to meet him is awesome.
00:02:20All right, we're excited about this pairing.
00:02:21I feel like you did a great job.
00:02:23Well, I'm going to cry, though, because you guys are both going to be so good.
00:02:26You guys look cool as hell.
00:02:28Thank you really do.
00:02:28I'm telling some rock energy today.
00:02:30You guys are pretty badass together.
00:02:31You look the part.
00:02:32We look good.
00:02:33We're ready.
00:02:34So, this song makes me cry.
00:02:38I've heard you sing it, by the way.
00:02:39You have?
00:02:40I've heard it.
00:02:40A couple times.
00:02:41Have you ever heard him sing it on a voicemail, though?
00:02:43Because I have.
00:02:43I sing it to Benji on a voicemail.
00:02:46I gave Drew and Jared Leather and Lace by Stevie Nicks and Don Henley.
00:02:49It's folky.
00:02:50It's country.
00:02:51It's rock and roll.
00:02:51It's a lot of things you love, you know?
00:02:53Of all the songs in the world, this might be a song that I have the most experience with.
00:02:57I sang the song with Stevie Nicks to my wife at our wedding.
00:03:02If you don't like this song, then I don't like you.
00:03:06I know it means a lot to him, so there's always that little nervousness, I guess, to perform a song
00:03:13that means a lot to my coach.
00:03:14But this is the kind of music that I love as an artist, so I'm just really happy we got
00:03:18it.
00:03:19Let's do it.
00:03:20All right.
00:03:22Lovers forever, face to face.
00:03:25The song is kind of what helped me put them together.
00:03:29Country, rock and roll, I feel like they both are cut from that same cloth.
00:03:33I need you to love me, I need you today.
00:03:39Drew has kind of a cool lane, because I don't hate anybody that sounds like her.
00:03:43She can really bring something special to the song that you don't hear every day.
00:03:47I need you to love me, I need you to love me.
00:03:55And he has range that I didn't know he had, you know, because he didn't sing that high in a
00:04:00blind audition.
00:04:02It's good to push yourself, and I think he sounds really cool in his upper register, too.
00:04:08That was beautiful, guys.
00:04:09A couple stars.
00:04:10You guys both have your own swagger.
00:04:12I'm such a fan of you guys.
00:04:13I think that for me, you never want to be copying, right?
00:04:16But at the same time, you have to be reverent to the record, too, because it's such a special record
00:04:21that, like, holds a place in so many people's hearts.
00:04:23The power of the song is in the simplicity, so all of that emotion and power is there without trying
00:04:29to do too much.
00:04:29This is a big choice.
00:04:31It's exciting, but it's also maybe a little bit nerve-wracking.
00:04:34You want to keep the respect on it, yeah.
00:04:35Yeah, because it's such a classic and such an all-time great song.
00:04:39I feel like it's going to stand out if you can tap into where that song in your soul sits
00:04:44and what it means to you.
00:04:45To win this battle, I need to completely let go and relate to that feeling of that vulnerability and that
00:04:53rawness that comes with falling in love with someone.
00:04:56My husband and I got married in 2022, and we are very opposite in a lot of ways.
00:05:01I'm leather and lace.
00:05:02I don't know.
00:05:03Sometimes I'm leather.
00:05:03Sometimes I'm lace.
00:05:05Ben, as a father, is amazing.
00:05:06He is crazy supportive of me, especially my musicianship.
00:05:10I can take the space and the time that I need to pursue what's important to me.
00:05:13And as a mom and a wife or just a partner in general, that's not something that a lot of
00:05:17people get, and I'm really grateful for that.
00:05:19This is obviously an epic love song, and I love Jared, but we're not in love.
00:05:24So, like, where do you go to really sell that story?
00:05:28I don't see it like you're playing a part because then it can be fake.
00:05:31It's the love of music.
00:05:32Like I said, I've sung the song with all the people, and our love of the song is kind of
00:05:38the romantic part of it, right?
00:05:39It's not targeted at each other.
00:05:41Like, if Benji and I were singing it, it would definitely be a love song for each other.
00:05:45I was going to say, hold up, Adam.
00:05:46I was going to say, when we sing it together, you both do make each other feel even more special,
00:05:53you know, singing together, because your voices are so different.
00:05:56It's also not bad if it scares you a little bit.
00:05:58Those nerves can be really good.
00:05:59It's just raw.
00:06:01It's real.
00:06:0190% of this game is comfort.
00:06:03You know, if you can feel good about yourself, and then it helps you propel what you're trying to sing.
00:06:11And Benji's good at helping me unlock that in some of these singers.
00:06:16That was infinitely better.
00:06:18It just immediately jumped the level.
00:06:19You guys are already starting to build that chemistry.
00:06:22Just get lost in the lyrics.
00:06:24The more kind of intimate it can feel, the better people will react to it.
00:06:27Yeah.
00:06:28I got to really focus on pouring more of that soul and that feeling into the song.
00:06:33For me, this song is about a complicated relationship that's had its ups and downs.
00:06:37My girlfriend's name is Chapin.
00:06:39Most of the challenges in our relationship center around my life as a musician.
00:06:45Every weekend, I'm in a different town, so being gone a lot, it's very difficult, but she's here to back
00:06:51me all the way.
00:06:52She's the one that pushed me to sign up, so if it wasn't for her, I would not be here.
00:06:56You know, we just gave you the note, and while you're singing it, you're thinking, all right, how am I
00:07:00applying that?
00:07:01But the more you do it, you're going to get locked in.
00:07:03Just keep running this repetition.
00:07:05Ten more times and we'll be ready.
00:07:07You know what I'm saying?
00:07:07We're very excited.
00:07:08Thank you guys so much.
00:07:10The stakes are high for this battle.
00:07:12We're performing on this massive stage for millions of people watching at home.
00:07:18All right.
00:07:19Ready?
00:07:19Here we go.
00:07:22This song, it requires a very clear vulnerability that takes time to build.
00:07:32My dad, David Thomas, is in the jazz acapella group Take Six.
00:07:37I always want to make my dad proud whenever I'm doing anything musical.
00:07:40He knows I've been working hard at this, and for him to hear that all come together on stage for
00:07:45the battles is going to be really cool.
00:07:49I definitely don't think the coaches have seen what I can do yet.
00:07:52We're just going to go out there and we're going to crush it.
00:07:58We're like a good-looking couple.
00:08:00Yeah.
00:08:02This battle begins right now.
00:08:16Is love so fragile and my heart so hollow?
00:08:23Shadow of the world, impossible to follow.
00:08:28Yeah.
00:08:29You're saying I'm fragile Try not to be
00:08:34I search on me For something I can't see
00:08:38Dang.
00:08:40Nice.
00:08:41Still I carry this feeling When you walked into my house
00:08:48That I won't be walking out the door
00:08:53Love is forever Face to face My city on mountains
00:09:02Stay with me, stay I need you to love me
00:09:08I need you today Give to me your love
00:09:14Take from me my place
00:09:19You in the moonlight With your sleepy eyes
00:09:26Could you ever love a man like me?
00:09:29Woo!
00:09:30Woo!
00:09:32Woo!
00:09:33And you were right When I walked into your house
00:09:38I knew I was never gonna leave But that time I saw you
00:09:46I knew with you to light my night Oh, somehow I get by
00:09:55Nice!
00:09:56Yeah!
00:09:57Love is forever Face to face My city on mountains
00:10:05Stay with me Stay with me Stay I need you to love me
00:10:11I need you today I love his voice
00:10:15Give to me your leather Take from me my lace
00:10:21Take from me my lace Sing, boy!
00:10:28Take from me my lace Sing, boy!
00:10:36I love that was damn good!
00:10:37So good!
00:10:40Yeah!
00:10:41Yeah!
00:10:43That was so cool!
00:10:44First of all, not to be superficial about you guys would make a hot couple.
00:10:48I don't know what your dating status is.
00:10:50Honestly, after hearing you, I think you should be a duo.
00:10:53You sound great together, you look good together.
00:10:54Let's think about it.
00:10:55Drew's married.
00:10:56Drew's married.
00:10:57Never mind, never mind.
00:10:58You can still have a group though.
00:11:00It was really beautiful.
00:11:01Your harmony sounded so great.
00:11:03That was such a great song choice, I thought, for both of you.
00:11:05Drew, I really loved at the top of your range, that little shred that was in your voice.
00:11:11It sounded so cool.
00:11:12Jared, I just decided that you're one of my favorite male vocalists this season.
00:11:17I just love the tone of your voice, like the rasp in it.
00:11:21You just sound like a star to me.
00:11:23You're like the real deal.
00:11:25It was the perfect song, so well done, Adam, for that.
00:11:29Yeah.
00:11:29It was the perfect song for both of you.
00:11:32How John was talking about your ache that was breaking your voice, Drew, but also the vibrato.
00:11:38It was perfect, and Jared, you open your mouth, and it's like, I feel like I'm at your concert.
00:11:44I actually think the both of you compliment each other, and you actually make each other better.
00:11:49That's why I said the group thing, and it's unexpected, which makes it more exciting as a fan.
00:11:54Thank you, coaches.
00:11:56Adam, tough decision coming up.
00:11:58Give us some thoughts first.
00:11:59This song, to me, is just a heavyweight champion of songs in my life.
00:12:04Like, I sang this song with Stevie Nicks to my wife at our wedding.
00:12:07You know what I mean?
00:12:07What?
00:12:08Like, I did.
00:12:09That happened.
00:12:09It really happened.
00:12:10I think it really happened.
00:12:11I pinch myself sometimes.
00:12:13So it made it even harder, I think, for you guys, because I was going to go and be uber
00:12:17-critical of it.
00:12:17And in the rehearsals, to be completely honest, the promise was there, and the vibe was there,
00:12:23but it just wasn't where it needed to be yet.
00:12:25And I was hoping that it would really come to fruition in time for this thing, and it really did.
00:12:30It was so beautiful.
00:12:31Thank you guys for really doing it, doing it right.
00:12:34Beautiful.
00:12:35Drew, like, there were moments where it was so Stevie-esque, and she is obviously one of the greatest
00:12:42ever to do it.
00:12:43And Jared, Don Henley's a beast.
00:12:45It's really, really rangy for a male vocalist, and you crushed it.
00:12:49You guys really stepped up, and you're both just incredible.
00:12:52Great job.
00:12:53Great job.
00:12:55Adam, congrats on a great battle, but the time has come.
00:12:58Who is the winner of this battle?
00:13:00You know, something happened to me when I listened to this one today.
00:13:06It really hit me out of left field.
00:13:08The winner of this battle is Jared.
00:13:13Jared, moving on to the knockouts for Team Adam.
00:13:15Congratulations.
00:13:16I got a zero in mind for you.
00:13:20Excellent job, baby.
00:13:21Amazing, dude.
00:13:22Jared can win this thing.
00:13:23Like, there's something about him.
00:13:25Like, he's special.
00:13:26I can't wait to get into it with Jared.
00:13:28I think we're going to have a lot of taste in common, believe it or not.
00:13:30And I think that's going to be really, really fun.
00:13:32Drew, anything you want to say to your coach?
00:13:34I am just so incredibly grateful for this opportunity.
00:13:37And honestly, your taste, the song choice,
00:13:39Jared as a partner was also incredible.
00:13:41And I couldn't be more thankful.
00:13:43So thank you for everything.
00:13:44You were awesome.
00:13:45Give it up one more time for Drew Russell, everybody.
00:13:48I wish I could have taken you both.
00:13:50You guys were both so great.
00:13:51It was really, really special.
00:13:53That was so good, Drew.
00:13:55It was beautiful.
00:13:55Look about it.
00:13:56Russell and Shoemaker.
00:13:58I'm just saying.
00:13:59I wish I not only had a steal, but I don't know if it's ever been done on this show.
00:14:02I wish you could just be, like, pairing.
00:14:06And you could, like, pair people together.
00:14:08They really sounded great together.
00:14:10They would brush it together in country.
00:14:12I know.
00:14:13They would.
00:14:14Man, Team Adam is stronger than I remember in the blinds.
00:14:17I just was like, that was amazing.
00:14:19They looked and sounded great together.
00:14:20Yeah.
00:14:21Yeah.
00:14:21We have people that keep surprising us, so that's fun.
00:14:24Coming up, incredible performances.
00:14:36Difficult decisions.
00:14:37You are so screwed.
00:14:39Yeah, I know.
00:14:40Adam, the time has come.
00:14:42Just give me a second.
00:14:43Let's go to commercial.
00:14:44Yeah.
00:14:45We'll be back.
00:14:46I wish I could steal.
00:14:47And the final steal of the battles.
00:14:55Just have gifts of that.
00:15:05Welcome back to The Voice, Battle of Champions.
00:15:11Hi, Carson.
00:15:13Please do it, Carson.
00:15:14Carson Daly.
00:15:19Carson Daly, Carson Daly, Carson Daly.
00:15:27All decisions are final.
00:15:29Not excited.
00:15:30Oh, no.
00:15:30You can't steal somebody now.
00:15:31No.
00:15:32It's just you.
00:15:33Thanks for the pressure.
00:15:36Oh, my people are going next.
00:15:38It's Houston and Tia, and they're both so good,
00:15:40but they're both very different.
00:15:42I really don't know which one I'm going to pick.
00:15:47It's The Voice, Battle of Champions,
00:15:49and it feels like a battle of champions right now.
00:15:51Father help me.
00:15:52Anxiety before I go out is just starting to get to me a little.
00:15:54Um, could I have a moment?
00:15:56I just need to, I want to take a minute, please.
00:16:00Yeah, because I don't want to cry.
00:16:06Breathe.
00:16:07This song's very challenging for me,
00:16:09and I just want to be able to perform it the way I know that I can.
00:16:12I'm ready to go sing my tush off, that's for sure.
00:16:15This is a different genre than what I normally sing.
00:16:18I want to show Kelly my versatility.
00:16:22Entering now from Team Kelly, Houston Kelly.
00:16:28Versus Tia Durant.
00:16:31To win this battle, I'm going to put everything I've got out on the line,
00:16:34and I'm going to hope that's enough.
00:16:35You ready, girl?
00:16:36Opportunities like this don't come very often.
00:16:39Losing is not an option.
00:16:49When it was announced that we were going to be battling each other,
00:16:52I was initially thinking like, what are they thinking?
00:16:54I wonder if something like that would work.
00:17:00Clyde, is he so full?
00:17:02He said he'd sing gospel, did he not?
00:17:09Oh, there you go.
00:17:11Listen, she can sing anything.
00:17:12Yeah.
00:17:13This is meant to be then.
00:17:14Okay, I'm going to put Houston and Tia together.
00:17:16I think this mix between country and soul,
00:17:20I never heard it until we started singing, but it works.
00:17:24We have to come up with a name for it.
00:17:25Oh, yeah.
00:17:26Sontree or something, soul, something would come up with it.
00:17:30I think I am ready.
00:17:33It's me, Jennifer.
00:17:35I came to see about you.
00:17:37Can I give a hug first, Tia?
00:17:39Oh, my God, please.
00:17:39Nice to meet you.
00:17:40Oh, wow, it's a pleasure.
00:17:41Today seeing Jennifer Hudson, it was definitely a surreal moment.
00:17:45Not only is she an incredible singer, she is an incredible actress.
00:17:50She is doing things that I am inspired to do.
00:17:54Unfortunately, Kelly couldn't be here today, so she asked me to step in.
00:17:58I hear y'all got a gospel background, both of you?
00:18:01Yes, ma'am.
00:18:01So my dad, he was a gospel singer.
00:18:03And when he was in college, he toured with a little group,
00:18:06and they would go to local churches and sing around.
00:18:08And then he was in a quartet when I was a kid.
00:18:10I love to write, and I love to be creative in that way.
00:18:12And I think that came from my dad.
00:18:14He put it in you. I love that.
00:18:15Absolutely.
00:18:16Now, tell me about you, Tia. What's your roots?
00:18:17My upbringing is in church.
00:18:19I'm from a small town, so faith, faith, faith.
00:18:22Yes.
00:18:23My grandfather used to sing, and of course,
00:18:25he pushed me up there to do it.
00:18:26So definitely, I got a lot of my confidence in church and my,
00:18:30yeah, go ahead, baby, you got it type of thing.
00:18:33That's all right, baby. Go head on.
00:18:34Definitely.
00:18:35I love that.
00:18:35I see Miss Kelly put y'all together for that reason,
00:18:38and she also picked a Chris Stapleton song for you guys,
00:18:42because it has a blend of country, blues, soul, gospel.
00:18:46Now we know.
00:18:46So put your faith in that.
00:18:49All right.
00:18:49Now take it away, Houston.
00:18:51The only time we ever talk is when the monthly bills are due.
00:18:58We go to work, we go to church.
00:19:02They're singing Either Way by Chris Stapleton.
00:19:05Kelly knew exactly what she was doing when she made this pairing.
00:19:11Tia has a pop soul vibe with a touch of gospel.
00:19:16Baby, you can go or you can stay.
00:19:22Houston has this huge country gritty voice.
00:19:26But I won't love you either way.
00:19:30It's just, mm, it works.
00:19:34I won't love you either way, either way.
00:19:39Holy smokes.
00:19:43Don't y'all come up and hit with all of this.
00:19:45Yeah.
00:19:46I was very honored to have a shoe thrown at me by Miss Hudson.
00:19:50I need my collection plate now, OK?
00:19:54Listen, this is what I'm talking about.
00:19:56Tell the story.
00:19:58Thank you so much.
00:19:59Because it's so powerful.
00:20:01I would love to hear your testimony and what you're singing,
00:20:05and then hearing your testimony and what you're singing,
00:20:08where you're going through what you're going through,
00:20:09but you're going through it in your own tracks.
00:20:11Does that make sense?
00:20:12Yeah.
00:20:13The song is so emotional.
00:20:16Not only is it about love and storytelling,
00:20:18which is what soul is about, it's about a deep vulnerability
00:20:22that I haven't always been open to.
00:20:24And there is power in vulnerability.
00:20:27What's the very end?
00:20:28On stage, we definitely want to give it some dramatic,
00:20:31so I suggested the turn away.
00:20:34Right.
00:20:34Like the, I won't love you either way.
00:20:37So how you physically did that?
00:20:39OK, now put it in the vocal.
00:20:41You're contemplating.
00:20:42So let it be a thought.
00:20:43You see what I'm saying?
00:20:44You over here, when you do separate,
00:20:46that's what I mean by put it in the lyrics.
00:20:48So it's like, what do I want either way
00:20:50that's taking them on that journey?
00:20:52Where you're figuring it out, like, either way.
00:20:55So it doesn't have to be collective.
00:20:57It doesn't have to be that at the end.
00:20:58No, because that's you contemplating your journey.
00:21:00I don't want to go either way, either way.
00:21:08It's like a conversational, emotional ending.
00:21:10Either way.
00:21:11Yeah, I like it.
00:21:13Whatever you feel, put it out there.
00:21:15Your granddaddy, your daddy taught y'all well.
00:21:19Yeah.
00:21:19OK?
00:21:19They're going to be proud.
00:21:21I'm proud.
00:21:22So Kelly going to be real proud.
00:21:23Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:21:23Did I throw enough shoes?
00:21:25Yeah, you did.
00:21:25Y'all got some more?
00:21:27Tia and Houston?
00:21:29How is Kelly going to pick between the two of them?
00:21:33I'm so glad I'm not Kelly.
00:21:34This is going to be tough.
00:21:36Just keep in mind, it's a competition.
00:21:39Sound wonderful together.
00:21:41But this is called The Voice.
00:21:43Not voices, The Voice.
00:21:45Now my heart's beating fast.
00:21:46You don't want to talk about nervous.
00:21:48I got put up against the referee.
00:21:50Come on now.
00:21:50What I do know is the coaches better get
00:21:53they shoes and their tissues ready.
00:21:56That's what I know.
00:21:57Thank you so much.
00:21:58Yes.
00:21:59Yes.
00:22:00That went pretty solid.
00:22:02Who would you pick as the winner of this battle?
00:22:05Get The Voice app now and play along.
00:22:16Welcome back to night two of The Battles.
00:22:21Oh, yes.
00:22:24Bang, y'all.
00:22:26This battle starts now.
00:22:28All right.
00:22:36We pass in the hall on our way to separate rooms.
00:22:43The only time we ever talk is when the monthly bills are due.
00:22:50We go to work, we go to church, we fade the perfect line.
00:22:58Sing, girl.
00:23:03I'm past the point of give a damn.
00:23:07Hey.
00:23:09And all my tears are crying.
00:23:16We can just go home like this.
00:23:24Say the word, we'll call it quit.
00:23:31Baby, you can go or you can stay.
00:23:40I won't love you either way.
00:23:46Beautiful.
00:23:47Yeah.
00:23:50And I used to cry and stay up nights and wonder what went wrong.
00:24:03Hey, Thea.
00:24:08It's been hard with hearts to know lead to death for so long.
00:24:15For so long.
00:24:18We can't just go home like this.
00:24:25Say the word will call it quits
00:24:32Baby you can go or you can stay
00:24:42I won't love you either way
00:24:46Oh no, no
00:24:49Either way
00:24:53Hey, you're out
00:24:58Looking good performances today, this a good day, this a good day
00:25:03Oh man, you're amazing, you're amazing
00:25:08Phenomenal
00:25:09Thank god
00:25:11Yeah
00:25:13Man, that was crazy, you guys did great
00:25:15Thank you
00:25:16Tia, I turned for you.
00:25:18I lost
00:25:20Houston, I didn't turn for you
00:25:22But I gotta tell you, I was really, really blown away.
00:25:24You were a major revelation, Houston, for me today.
00:25:26That rasp in your voice, in your upper register,
00:25:28especially when you're singing Chris Stapleton,
00:25:29who is, like, the master of that, right?
00:25:31You really fulfilled a tall order
00:25:33in being able to stay with that
00:25:35and do those big, gutty, high notes with rasp.
00:25:38But I'm jealous of that.
00:25:40Tia, I love you, but I think if I was choosing,
00:25:42I might actually go with Houston today.
00:25:44Thank you so much.
00:25:45You're both great. I'm not trying to choose favorites.
00:25:47Oh, no, I need help.
00:25:48Well, y'all made it hard for her,
00:25:50so congratulations for making it hard for her.
00:25:52Houston, I was very impressed with you.
00:25:54That higher part of your voice
00:25:56just really crackled in a really beautiful way.
00:25:58But I will say I would choose Tia in this battle,
00:26:02not to contradict my friend over there,
00:26:04but I just feel like the tone was perfect.
00:26:07I loved your runs.
00:26:08They were just so tastefully done,
00:26:11interesting and subtle.
00:26:13Your tone was just liquid gold.
00:26:14I just wanted to listen to you sing all day.
00:26:17Like, I couldn't see her going home after that.
00:26:20Thank you so much.
00:26:21Thank you, coaches.
00:26:23Wow, Kelly, I can see the anguish on your face already.
00:26:27Battle of the champions,
00:26:28they've all been really good,
00:26:29and they make for difficult decisions.
00:26:30What did you think about the whole battle first?
00:26:32This has been the hardest battles for me
00:26:34because I wasn't able to be there at rehearsals.
00:26:38You know, Jennifer, I do remember her telling me,
00:26:39she threw her shoe in y'all's rehearsal.
00:26:41She was like, she was...
00:26:43The shoe was thrown.
00:26:44She doesn't do that for everyone.
00:26:45That's how you know you did it right.
00:26:46She just said it was such a great pairing,
00:26:48and so I knew that you could both handle this song.
00:26:51Handled it.
00:26:51You both did such a great job.
00:26:53Like, Tia, once again,
00:26:54you did some really interesting stuff
00:26:55that was really cool.
00:26:57I think that's what's special about you
00:26:58is where your brain takes you melodically.
00:27:01I think it's very interesting,
00:27:02and not many singers do.
00:27:04And Houston, your subtle vibrato
00:27:06and the emotion behind that
00:27:07was something unexpected.
00:27:09I knew you would be able to do the big stuff,
00:27:11but that really intimate stuff
00:27:13was really special,
00:27:14and I think just as powerful.
00:27:16Oh, man.
00:27:17Mm.
00:27:18I am, like, shaking.
00:27:20Okay.
00:27:20Kelly, tough one for you.
00:27:22I honestly don't know which one.
00:27:24I hate this right now.
00:27:27Oh, my God.
00:27:29Somebody's stalling.
00:27:30And you both, I know,
00:27:31you both chose different people.
00:27:32Yeah, we didn't help.
00:27:33Kelly, who is the winner of this battle?
00:27:35Um, just give me a second.
00:27:38Let's go to commercial.
00:27:40We'll be back.
00:27:41This is all the hard.
00:27:42I know, I know, I know, I know, I know.
00:27:43This is so hard.
00:27:44This is so hard.
00:27:53Welcome back to the battles.
00:27:55Oh.
00:27:57Okay.
00:28:00The winner of this battle
00:28:04is Houston.
00:28:07Houston, shocked.
00:28:08He's moving on
00:28:09to the knockouts
00:28:10with Team Kelly.
00:28:11This was by far
00:28:12my hardest decision.
00:28:14Both are incredible singers,
00:28:16but Houston showed me
00:28:17in the battles
00:28:18that he's got even more
00:28:19in his arsenal
00:28:20that I did not know about.
00:28:21I'm excited to work with you, too.
00:28:22I'm sweating.
00:28:23Houston may have some more shoes
00:28:24thrown at him, y'all.
00:28:26Thank you so much.
00:28:27Thank y'all, guys.
00:28:28Great job, brother.
00:28:28It makes me feel really good
00:28:30that she wants to take me
00:28:31to the knockouts,
00:28:31and I'm very hopeful
00:28:32that I can deliver
00:28:33what she's hoping for.
00:28:34Oh, that was very hard.
00:28:36I just was so surprised by him.
00:28:38I just loved how he sounded
00:28:39in the very beginning.
00:28:40I feel like he won that.
00:28:41I'm really looking forward
00:28:42to work under Kelly.
00:28:43I know I didn't get to work
00:28:44with her this first time,
00:28:45so I'm really excited
00:28:46to get her expertise
00:28:47and her insight.
00:28:48Got Team Kelly
00:28:49going to the knockouts.
00:28:50Thank y'all so much.
00:28:52I love the song.
00:28:53You have a Spanish song
00:28:54coming up.
00:28:55Oh, my sharia more.
00:28:57Oh, yeah.
00:28:58My sharia more.
00:29:04Having fun?
00:29:05I'm having a great time, man.
00:29:06It's like we've just been
00:29:08doing this together for years.
00:29:09Feels right.
00:29:10Like, almost like we're brothers.
00:29:12Like we're bros.
00:29:13Yeah.
00:29:15Buenas, buenas.
00:29:16This is Aziz Guerra,
00:29:17and I'm about to find out
00:29:18who I'm going to be paired with
00:29:19for battles.
00:29:20I got the best singing partner
00:29:22y'all gave me.
00:29:23Oh, my God.
00:29:23I got Jeremy.
00:29:25Jeremy's voice,
00:29:26I love how smooth it is.
00:29:27He's always on pitch.
00:29:28That is something that I got to
00:29:30focus a little bit more on.
00:29:31It's just getting super competitive.
00:29:33I just want to make it
00:29:33to knockouts.
00:29:35Aziz, his baritone voice
00:29:37is so rich.
00:29:38He's very delicate
00:29:39at the same time.
00:29:40He does everything well.
00:29:41You know, he just makes me
00:29:42want to step my game up
00:29:43even more.
00:29:44It's going to be amazing,
00:29:44amazing, amazing.
00:29:45Yes.
00:29:46This was my hardest pairing
00:29:48because Aziz,
00:29:48he sang entirely in Spanish,
00:29:50and he's so singularly
00:29:51his own thing.
00:29:52But I felt like Jeremy
00:29:53would be maybe a good person,
00:29:55and the song helps me decide.
00:29:58Oh, my God, it's Benji.
00:30:01Benji Madden, ladies and gentlemen.
00:30:02Benji Madden, legend.
00:30:04Benji.
00:30:05This is Benji Madden right here.
00:30:06Like, I was not expecting that.
00:30:08Huge fan.
00:30:08Huge fan.
00:30:09Seeing Benji
00:30:11was my childhood
00:30:12all over again.
00:30:13MTV,
00:30:14there was no way
00:30:15you could avoid
00:30:16Good Charlotte.
00:30:17I love this song.
00:30:17It's beautiful,
00:30:18and the fact that we can sing it
00:30:19in English and Spanish.
00:30:20I know, I love that.
00:30:21It's just you in Spanish,
00:30:21or you can do Spanish, too?
00:30:22He's going to sing in Spanish, too.
00:30:24I gave Aziz and Jeremy
00:30:26my Sharia Amor
00:30:26by Stevie Wonder.
00:30:27Big shoes to fill,
00:30:29as Stevie is literally
00:30:29the baddest singer of all time.
00:30:31It's nice when a song comes around
00:30:32and makes sense
00:30:33for two people on my team.
00:30:35It also is great
00:30:36because it's a challenge
00:30:37for you, Jeremy.
00:30:38I love that you're singing in Spanish.
00:30:40I've been wanting
00:30:41to sing a song
00:30:41in Spanish for a minute, so...
00:30:43Jeremy, do you speak Spanish?
00:30:45A little bit.
00:30:46I'm not fluent,
00:30:47but I do.
00:30:49A poquito, yeah.
00:30:49Okay.
00:30:50I love it.
00:30:51Let's sing.
00:30:52My Sharia Amor
00:30:55Pretty little one
00:30:58that I adore
00:30:59Jeremy, you can just tell
00:31:01that he's put the hours
00:31:03and hours and hours
00:31:03and hours in.
00:31:04It's a really rich tone.
00:31:06Yeah.
00:31:06Sweet, soulful,
00:31:07but deep.
00:31:08That's a big voice
00:31:09to take on.
00:31:12My querido amor
00:31:14Eres tu la flor
00:31:16que yo soñé
00:31:19Aziz's voice,
00:31:20I kind of felt like
00:31:21there was like
00:31:22a little bit of
00:31:22like old school
00:31:23crooner kind of vibe.
00:31:25Aziz's like the Latin
00:31:26Josh Groban.
00:31:27Yeah, that's a great comp.
00:31:28Right?
00:31:29Yeah.
00:31:29If he leans into that,
00:31:31then he'll shine.
00:31:34Sounded good in Spanish.
00:31:36Okay.
00:31:37Started off great.
00:31:39Towards the end,
00:31:41it started to get
00:31:42too over harmonized.
00:31:44Okay.
00:31:44I don't want to sacrifice
00:31:46energy for harmony.
00:31:47Jeremy, being a background
00:31:48singer, every once in a while,
00:31:50I hear you go into
00:31:51a very safe place.
00:31:52Yes.
00:31:53Because that's what
00:31:53you're used to doing,
00:31:54but I would say like,
00:31:55try your best to break out
00:31:57of that.
00:31:57You have the license
00:31:58to be freer
00:32:00and not be restricted
00:32:01by what you've had to do
00:32:02in the past
00:32:02to be a support system.
00:32:03Being a backup singer
00:32:05is a really tough gig.
00:32:07Definitely.
00:32:07You're there,
00:32:08you know,
00:32:08in service of a different record
00:32:10and, you know,
00:32:11to get to go out
00:32:12behind your own music,
00:32:13I think like,
00:32:14make sure you don't
00:32:16hold yourself back either.
00:32:18Right.
00:32:18And yeah,
00:32:19don't let it be a weakness.
00:32:19Make it a strength.
00:32:20Outside of the voice,
00:32:22I worked on a cruise ship.
00:32:23Three shows a night,
00:32:25six nights a week.
00:32:27I don't think
00:32:27you work harder
00:32:28anywhere else.
00:32:29I've also been
00:32:30a background vocalist
00:32:31pretty much my whole career.
00:32:33And this time,
00:32:34it's about me.
00:32:35It's about preparing Jeremy.
00:32:37The lights are on me.
00:32:38The pressure is on me.
00:32:40I want to show Adam
00:32:41that I am an artist
00:32:43and I take risks.
00:32:45Aziz,
00:32:46I just don't want it
00:32:46to be too chill.
00:32:49You know what I'm saying?
00:32:49Okay.
00:32:50A little bit more urgency.
00:32:51Everybody's different.
00:32:52You'll have something
00:32:53that's unique to you.
00:32:54get to know yourself
00:32:55as you go.
00:32:56Right.
00:32:57Definitely.
00:32:57Contra.
00:32:58I'm currently studying
00:32:59at Berklee College of Music
00:33:00in Boston.
00:33:01Being here
00:33:02is just so much different.
00:33:04Right now,
00:33:05I'm just singing
00:33:06casually in front of
00:33:07Adam Levine.
00:33:08I would love to win the battle.
00:33:10Just being here
00:33:10is literally a dream come true.
00:33:12Right on.
00:33:13Yeah, guys.
00:33:13Awesome.
00:33:14Thank you, guys.
00:33:15My guys.
00:33:15Great work.
00:33:16Let's go.
00:33:16I think if Jeremy
00:33:18can really step up
00:33:19and be the lead singer,
00:33:21you know,
00:33:21he's got the voice for it.
00:33:23I don't like to pick sides
00:33:24so early,
00:33:24but yes,
00:33:25I don't disagree with you.
00:33:26Jeremy is definitely
00:33:28in the lead,
00:33:29but there's been
00:33:29so many times
00:33:30someone's been in the lead,
00:33:31and all of a sudden,
00:33:32you just don't know.
00:33:45Welcome back.
00:33:50This battle starts now.
00:33:58My sherry amore
00:34:02Lovely as a summer day
00:34:06All right.
00:34:08My sherry amore
00:34:12Distant as the Milky Way
00:34:17My sherry amore
00:34:21Pretty little one
00:34:23that I adore
00:34:25You're the only girl
00:34:28my heart is born
00:34:30How I wish that you were mine
00:34:35I go
00:34:37You're the only girl
00:34:39I'm going to go and ask you to all the past.
00:34:45I look for you and I can't find you.
00:34:55My Charlie, oh boy, won't you tell me how good you ignore?
00:35:03Not behind a little spot I want, how I wish that you were mine.
00:35:24Mi querido amor, no sabes cuánto pienso en ti.
00:35:33Mi querido amor, podria serte tan feliz.
00:35:42Mi querido amor, eres tú la flor que yo soñé.
00:35:50You're the only girl my heart beats for.
00:35:56How I wish that you were mine.
00:36:01La, la, la, la, la, la.
00:36:06La, la, la, la, la.
00:36:22La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
00:36:32Yeah!
00:36:35Woo!
00:36:37I'd like to have a talk with Adam briefly
00:36:39before we get into this.
00:36:42Jeremy and I sang Ordinary People together,
00:36:47and my heart was broken after that
00:36:49when he chose Team Adam.
00:36:51Oh yeah, remember that?
00:36:53I get it.
00:36:54Well, that was beautiful, guys.
00:36:56Both of you sounded magnificent.
00:36:57If I were to choose, I would pick Jeremy,
00:37:00as much as it breaks my heart
00:37:02that he's even on your team.
00:37:09Just have GIFs of that.
00:37:12All of my GIFs online are from The Voice.
00:37:15Same, same.
00:37:17I think that you both did a really great job.
00:37:20I loved your runs equally.
00:37:22I thought they were very different.
00:37:23Obviously, you have very different voices.
00:37:24Adi, your voice, especially when you hold it out
00:37:26on those big, soaring notes,
00:37:28that vibrato that comes into play, it's beautiful.
00:37:31Thank you so much, Kelly.
00:37:33And then, Jeremy, every time you just started afraid,
00:37:35it was like, oh!
00:37:37I thought it was an equal playing field.
00:37:38I thought both of you did a great job.
00:37:41It's a tough one. I don't like it.
00:37:42Thank you, coaches. Appreciate it.
00:37:44Adam, you got a tough one here.
00:37:46Both you guys did everything that was asked of you and more.
00:37:50And that is always what makes this whole thing brutal,
00:37:53to have to make a decision.
00:37:54I want you both to know I'm really, really, really happy
00:37:58and proud of both of you guys.
00:37:59You're doing a great job.
00:38:00Yeah.
00:38:01Adam, the time has come.
00:38:04Yeah.
00:38:05Who is the winner of this battle?
00:38:07I think that this person is ready now.
00:38:10Yeah.
00:38:11And so that's why the winner of this battle is Jeremy.
00:38:16We're never back.
00:38:17Jeremy removed all the back out for team Adam.
00:38:19Congratulations.
00:38:21Jeremy is no longer a background singer.
00:38:23He's coming into the foreground, and I'm really proud of him
00:38:25because he's doing all the things.
00:38:26Thank you, man.
00:38:27Thank you very much.
00:38:28Jeremy's voice has presence, and Jeremy was just so good
00:38:31and so right on the money, and just, he deserved to advance.
00:38:34Luna's on Duolingo.
00:38:35Oh, you're on Duolingo?
00:38:36Nice.
00:38:36What do you learn in Spanish?
00:38:37Yeah.
00:38:38Do you know, like, colors yet?
00:38:41Or, like, azul?
00:38:42Yeah.
00:38:43What's verde, Lou?
00:38:43What's verde?
00:38:45Blanco.
00:38:46I like the Spanish.
00:38:47I thought he was sweet.
00:38:55Welcome back to the battles.
00:38:58Drewski, these battles, they've been so intense.
00:39:01It kind of reminds me of the 95 Eastern Conference semifinals.
00:39:05That's the year I was born.
00:39:07What?
00:39:08It reminds me of my family get-togethers.
00:39:10A lot of yelling, fighting, and stealing.
00:39:12Speaking of stealing, Adam is the only coach with a steal left.
00:39:16Adam has attempted to steal before, but it hasn't worked out yet, you know?
00:39:19What do you mean?
00:39:20I know what he's going through mentally, but he needs to use that pressure.
00:39:24Dig deep.
00:39:25Hit that button at the right time.
00:39:27Well, let's see what happens.
00:39:28I'm next.
00:39:29Oh, my God.
00:39:29They're doing Walk On By?
00:39:31They sound really good on it.
00:39:32I love that song.
00:39:33The country girl sounds amazing on it.
00:39:35Our team is so lucky to have Money Long.
00:39:38I'm so grateful to be here.
00:39:40I'm super excited to share my knowledge with this next generation of artists and be a trailblazer
00:39:45and chop down the trees and make the path so that it's not as tough for people that come behind
00:39:51me.
00:39:51So let's talk about these artists.
00:39:53We've got Kendra versus Natasha.
00:39:56We are partnering together for battle.
00:40:00She can moonwalk.
00:40:01She's got to do this in the performance.
00:40:03How do you do this?
00:40:04It's all in the ankles.
00:40:05Natasha and I couldn't be different on so many levels to where I'm always hot and I need a fan.
00:40:10I'm freezing, so I'm sitting on a rope.
00:40:13They are so different.
00:40:15And I was like, how do I find a song for the both of them?
00:40:18And I went to Dionne Warwick, Walk On By.
00:40:21Yeah, Dionne's got smooth and she's got grit.
00:40:23Exactly.
00:40:24Let's do it.
00:40:26Hello, ladies.
00:40:28So there's John Legend and there's Money Long.
00:40:31This is sick.
00:40:32She's written amazing songs like California King Bed by Rihanna.
00:40:39I'm a songwriter back in Nashville for movies and TV shows.
00:40:43I am so excited to hear input from such an accomplished writer.
00:40:49Both of you got your boots on today.
00:40:51We're ready to walk on by.
00:40:52Walk on by.
00:40:53I like what she did there.
00:40:54When we got this song, I was like, let's go.
00:40:57This is so in my wheelhouse.
00:40:58I was like, let me look it up.
00:41:01Well, this is a classic.
00:41:02And the thing about great songwriting is you can translate it to different genres.
00:41:08Yeah.
00:41:08Let's do it.
00:41:09If you see me walking down the street.
00:41:12I love Natasha because she's got such style in her voice.
00:41:15It has like a grace to it.
00:41:17It's just silky, slinky.
00:41:19And I really love that she owns it.
00:41:21She doesn't try to do anything that doesn't feel like it's her.
00:41:26Walk on by.
00:41:28Kendra is so raspy and like gritty.
00:41:30She kind of gives me a little Annie Winehouse vibe.
00:41:33And it just kind of sounds like vinyl, cracky.
00:41:35Smoky.
00:41:35She just sings the melody in a way that is so full.
00:41:41Kendra, I like how you broke up the walk on by.
00:41:46When the call and response, don't stop.
00:41:49You're not stepping on each other.
00:41:51So sing it.
00:41:52Can we address the harmonics in the bridge?
00:41:55Something was rubbing to me.
00:41:57We just arranged it to what we thought.
00:41:59I'll help you like compose something together.
00:42:04Oh, don't stop.
00:42:07Won't you walk on by?
00:42:12Won't you walk on by?
00:42:16That's it.
00:42:17That's the vibe.
00:42:18I love that.
00:42:18It's just simpler, you know?
00:42:20Yeah.
00:42:21John Legend truly is a master at his craft.
00:42:24And how lucky am I to have a person like that as my coach?
00:42:30Back home, I was a dental hygienist in Nashville.
00:42:34I'll see you next time, girl.
00:42:36I lost my job coming out here to follow my dreams.
00:42:40If I'm going to win this battle, I'm going to need to show John everything that I'm made of.
00:42:45Thank you both so much.
00:42:47Both of them are really great at what they do.
00:42:50On the day of battles, it's going to be about who shows up being their best self.
00:42:55Let's go.
00:42:58Great job.
00:42:59Let the battle begin.
00:43:07If you see me walking down the street
00:43:10And I start to cry
00:43:13Each time we meet
00:43:15Walk on by
00:43:20Walk on by
00:43:23Okay
00:43:38Walk on by
00:43:41Walk on by
00:43:46Walk on by
00:43:53I just can't get over losing you
00:43:59And so if I seem broken and blow
00:44:04Walk on by
00:44:07Walk on by
00:44:12Foolish pride is all that I've loved so
00:44:17Let me hide this feeling inside
00:44:21And I tell you
00:44:23When you say goodbye
00:44:27Walk on by
00:44:29Don't stop
00:44:31Walk on by
00:44:33Walk on by
00:44:34Walk on by
00:44:34Don't stop
00:44:37Oh
00:44:38Don't stop
00:44:41Oh won't you walk on by
00:44:44Oh
00:44:46Why don't you walk on by
00:44:50Hey
00:44:51Walk on by
00:44:55Walk on by
00:44:57Walk on by
00:45:00The foolish pride
00:45:02That's all that I have left so
00:45:05Let me hide this feeling inside me
00:45:10I can't help but tell you
00:45:12Goodbye
00:45:15Walk on by
00:45:20Walk on by
00:45:25Walk on by
00:45:28Walk on by
00:45:34Beautiful
00:45:36Well done
00:45:37Great job
00:45:38I love that song
00:45:39It was so cool
00:45:40I feel like you guys
00:45:41Couldn't possibly be more different
00:45:43Natasha this song may be a little more in your zone
00:45:47Kendra it still showed me things about your voice I would want to hear
00:45:51It's gonna be a tough one and it really just boils down to preference
00:45:54I don't know what to tell you John
00:45:55I'm sorry man
00:45:56Useless
00:45:57Useless
00:45:57I'm useless
00:46:00Kendra you are ready to release the firecrackers
00:46:03Like that little rasp in your voice
00:46:05There is a level of feistiness
00:46:07Thank you so much
00:46:08And Natasha like you just have more of a smoothness to your voice and an ease to it
00:46:13I would lean towards Kendra a little bit more
00:46:16Thank you coaches
00:46:19All right John give us some thoughts on the battle please
00:46:21Kendra came to us singing Little Big Town but I told her she's a very soulful singer like I hear
00:46:27that edge in her voice
00:46:28And then Natasha you're very smooth very sultry well done both of you
00:46:35John who is the winner of this battle
00:46:40The winner of this battle is Natasha
00:46:45Natasha congratulations
00:46:47Kendra and Natasha they both sounded great and I just slightly prefer Natasha's approach
00:46:53Well done
00:46:54I love the subtleties in her voice it has this smoothness that I really appreciate
00:47:00Thank you so much
00:47:01I'm so excited for the knockouts because that's when they choose their own song again
00:47:07We really get to start to round out our image of these artists and what their taste is and what
00:47:12style they want to sing
00:47:13So I'm really excited to see Natasha
00:47:23Welcome back to the battles
00:47:26Hi
00:47:26Hi
00:47:27I'm Jennifer
00:47:28Oh my god
00:47:29The one and only
00:47:29Kelly called me and she said can you come see about my fabulous team
00:47:33Woo
00:47:33You are in great hands
00:47:35Yes
00:47:35Because I was once a coach
00:47:38Oh yeah
00:47:38On The Voice
00:47:39She's beautiful
00:47:40Am I cute?
00:47:41Oh my god you're great
00:47:41And I'm doing okay
00:47:42Kelly told me you can really sing
00:47:44We gotta make her proud
00:47:46Yeah
00:47:46All right
00:47:47Go take away Chacha
00:47:49A kiss
00:47:50A touch
00:47:51Aaron and Jonah
00:47:53They're singing the first time from Damiano Davis
00:47:55Kelly picked this song because it's relatively new and she thought this song would be a big challenge for them
00:48:01And I think she's right
00:48:02Their powerhouse voice is from two completely different genres
00:48:06You have rock and the stage world
00:48:09First time we met
00:48:12Which is an interesting mashup but they both have range that does not end
00:48:16Which makes it
00:48:18Oof
00:48:18A competition
00:48:19First time we met
00:48:23I ain't got no shoes so I had to throw the paper
00:48:25I love that
00:48:27Jonah
00:48:27Yeah
00:48:27You're so captivating to watch
00:48:30Thank you
00:48:30You see the story as you're singing it and you're creating that picture
00:48:34Thank you
00:48:34I know Kelly wanted to hear you venture off into like rock and
00:48:38Yeah
00:48:38You know outside of classical or opera
00:48:40Would you say that is a challenge for you?
00:48:42Oh 1,000% yeah
00:48:43Because my first song was more like a Italian popper and Gerbitelli style song
00:48:48Just sing
00:48:49Okay
00:48:50Don't think about it
00:48:51As my grandmama would say stay in flat foot and sing
00:48:53Because you have the gift naturally
00:48:55I miss Kelly but
00:48:56Oh my god
00:48:57J-Hud is my happy place
00:48:59She was saying to me
00:49:01I'm okay
00:49:01I can trust myself
00:49:02I had three to four jobs
00:49:04I've been singing at weddings
00:49:05Funerals
00:49:06Sounds a little grim
00:49:07But everything that I've been doing has been leading up to this moment
00:49:10And as beautiful as voice as Aaron's is
00:49:14That's not my voice
00:49:15And I am happy to show them what I can do with my voice in this song
00:49:18And then for you Aaron
00:49:19All you gotta do is know the song
00:49:20Let it just be the wind beneath your wings
00:49:22Okay
00:49:23Yeah
00:49:23Because you wanna perform it
00:49:25Become it
00:49:26And you want the people to feel like I could do anything
00:49:28Yeah
00:49:29Oh my god
00:49:30You know
00:49:31But somewhere in there Aaron
00:49:32You need to find a way to get yourself a good little note
00:49:35It's gonna take it to another level
00:49:37This is a competition
00:49:38You gotta let him know baby I am still here
00:49:40There is a magnetism about Jennifer Hudson
00:49:42And she reminded me this is a competition
00:49:45I've performed in all 50 states and all throughout the world
00:49:48If I lose the battle I'll definitely be disappointed
00:49:50Jonah's an amazing performer
00:49:52He has a great voice
00:49:53And there really isn't anyone else like him in this competition
00:49:56Time to step it up a little bit
00:49:57Be you, both of you
00:49:59To the fullest
00:50:00Cause what?
00:50:01That's what got you here
00:50:02Amen
00:50:02Aaron and Jonah
00:50:04It is going to be a true battle for Kelly
00:50:07And I'm glad I'm not Kelly
00:50:09Okay
00:50:10Let the competition begin
00:50:14Battling now from Team Kelly
00:50:16Aaron LaVigny
00:50:17Versus
00:50:19Jonah Mayer
00:50:23Whoa
00:50:26This battle starts now
00:50:34I thought my heart had felt it all
00:50:43I swam for miles across the ocean
00:50:47Never been sure
00:50:49My eyes were closed
00:50:53My eyes were closed
00:50:57My eyes were low
00:50:57I was just getting drunk
00:51:00On pills and forces
00:51:02Craving something more
00:51:04Trouble for the world but it got me nowhere
00:51:09Nothing could ever compare
00:51:12A kiss
00:51:14A touch
00:51:15A summoning and crying
00:51:16All the drugs
00:51:17I've done
00:51:18That couldn't get me higher
00:51:20Than the first time we met
00:51:23There's nothing like the first time we met
00:51:27Yeah
00:51:28I crashed my car
00:51:30Oh baby I was flying
00:51:31And I talked to God
00:51:33He couldn't get me higher
00:51:35Than the first time we met
00:51:38There's nothing like the first time
00:51:41The first time we met
00:51:47You set the room on fire
00:51:51You take the angels higher
00:51:55I heard a thousand choirs
00:51:58Oh baby you ain't seen nothing yet
00:52:02Traveled the world and got me nowhere
00:52:06Nothing could ever compare
00:52:18There's nothing like the first time we met
00:52:29There's nothing like the first time we met
00:52:34There's nothing like the first time we met
00:52:43The first time we met
00:52:51The first time we met
00:52:52The first time we met
00:52:54The first time we met
00:52:54The first time we met
00:53:08of singing is performance if you can't kind of go for it then you won't be able
00:53:13to succeed in this business but I also think that there's this weird balance
00:53:16you have to strike between having that energy that I know you guys had and
00:53:21also containing it enough to maintain control of your instrument and that
00:53:26sounds so lame but what I was thinking the whole time was like I wish we could
00:53:30like get our breathing under control right now so I could hear some more that
00:53:33you guys have to offer because you guys are both really powerful singers yeah I
00:53:36think both of you when you hit those big glorious high notes that's what I love
00:53:40I just feel like Jonah's opera angle we could explore his strengths in the
00:53:47competition thank you coaches all right Kelly got a tough decision here in a
00:53:52minute give us some thoughts on the battle first please you're both like
00:53:57firecrackers and I think both of you equally had some pitch issues but Aaron
00:54:03man I mean we all heard it that note that you went up for that's incredible
00:54:07your range is incredible and then even Jonah whenever you went for your big
00:54:10notes you have this roundness that just fills the space you got a tough decision
00:54:16here who is the winner of this battle I'm gonna have to go on what I think will
00:54:21stand out a little more in the end so the winner of this battle is Jonah
00:54:27Jonah congratulations you both are very talented but there is something very special to me about
00:54:32Jonah I feel like he had a little bit more edge than Aaron Jonah's special I like his energy
00:54:37I'm so excited that's Jonah I think that's Jonah yeah that's Jonah he's a firecracker
00:54:54welcome back I don't know about you I'm feeling kind of nervous like just with these doors right
00:54:59now I'm like okay so it's real got it yeah I wasn't really feeling nervous now until this moment yeah
00:55:06yeah so I want to introduce you to Ashley and Syd Ashley did kind of country pop country rock vibe
00:55:13there's pictures of you the way you jump between different parts of your voice and the fact that
00:55:24you're doing all that at the age of 18 is just so impressive and then Syd is like a whaler
00:55:29she's
00:55:30saying uh Jessie J which is not easy
00:55:33well there is something going down like the storm in the sky
00:55:40did you just win the voice the voice over my team is full I'm so angry I literally have one
00:55:48spot left
00:55:49on my team you were sent from heaven Syd to fill that final spot and you can win this competition
00:55:57so we'll see I'm excited yeah let's go Ashley and said you know I felt like they would both give
00:56:05me a
00:56:05powerful big pop diva performance and I gave them the mother of all yeah pop diva performances with a
00:56:13really classic Mariah Carey song called love takes time this song is yeah doozy I can't wait to hear what
00:56:20do with it definitely this is the voice I want y'all to come out here and flex on them
00:56:26I don't want to be here Mariah has that belty chest voice she's got a deep lower register as well
00:56:34and I think both Syd and Ashley have those things I love when Ashley's doing the attitude
00:56:41and Syd it's like her tone just hits you in the face
00:56:46I mean every time they sang together I kept getting chills all right amazing it's like you're
00:56:53super passionate you have attitude like I love when you like do it yeah when you do that super long
00:57:01high
00:57:01note just take it back a little just to let the lead because she's really doing the lead at that
00:57:06point so it's not too clashing you know yeah it feels very humbling to learn from people with such
00:57:14out-of-this-world talent I'm like pinching myself I like going home and sobbing I've been a wedding
00:57:20singer now for about three years it's so fun it's like I don't even go to work which is so
00:57:27cool the
00:57:27voice is a really big step for me just so people can see me as an artist writing this battle
00:57:34would prove
00:57:34to myself that you're here for a reason and you just got to keep going Ashley my main advice would
00:57:41be just thinking about how you transition between your head voice and your chest voice because it
00:57:45felt a little bit disjointed and maybe just decide stay in my chest voice because it'll be easier to
00:57:50keep it smooth sure thank you okay me too I don't want to be there I don't want to be
00:57:56there
00:57:56unison with the harmony I do so sit first I don't want to be there I don't want to be
00:58:03there and then
00:58:04together oh yes that'd be tasty taking love takes time and really trying to make it my own is kind
00:58:15of
00:58:15hard it's a riot carry you can't get any harder than that but I want to show John with this
00:58:20performance
00:58:21I am very versatile and I can go into a different genre but still be myself now it's just all
00:58:28about
00:58:28getting it into your body and feeling it like you practice it so much it's second nature you know
00:58:33y'all got some pipes I'm having a hard time thinking who you gonna pick I just want to see
00:58:43who goes out
00:58:44there and shows the world that they need to be in the next round this song is demanding it requires
00:58:52a lot of natural ability and skill and you just want to see somebody that isn't afraid of this kind
00:58:58of challenge and goes out there and just nails it
00:59:00love takes time to hear when you hurt so much couldn't see that I was blind
00:59:11to let you go away and escape this pain inside
00:59:18love takes time
00:59:23I don't want to be here
00:59:27I don't want to be here
00:59:30alone
00:59:35you might say
00:59:37that it's so bad
00:59:42and you might say
00:59:45that you don't care
00:59:47that you don't care
00:59:49baby
00:59:50and you might say
00:59:53you don't miss me
00:59:55you don't need me
00:59:57but I know that you do
00:59:59and I feel that you do

01:00:20inside
01:00:24because love takes time
01:00:27Cause I don't wanna be there
01:00:32I don't wanna be there
01:00:36I don't wanna be there
01:00:42Alone
01:00:58I saw the song before I walked out and I was like, that is a tall order
01:01:02I love this song so much. I'm gonna start with you, Ashley
01:01:05I did feel like there were some pitchy parts here and there
01:01:08There were also some really beautiful moments, girl, your voice
01:01:10When it gets really big and you open up that roundness, it's beautiful
01:01:14It is a really beautiful, big ol' sound
01:01:18And Syd, I'm still angry for not even being able to possibly turn for you
01:01:23I like to think she would've chosen me anyway
01:01:25At least you have an excuse, I was in it and I still lost
01:01:29Thank you coaches
01:01:31Alright, John, give us some thoughts on that battle before he tells who won
01:01:33Both of you are such wonderful singers
01:01:36And Ashley, you really do have an amazing voice
01:01:40When you have this powerful instrument
01:01:41Part of what you're doing is learning how to harness it
01:01:44And controlling this gift that you have
01:01:46It just takes time, as Mariah said
01:01:49It takes time
01:01:51I love
01:01:52And Syd, it is that interesting combination of going to the heights of what you're able to do
01:01:57With your voice, but not sounding shrill
01:02:00It's a remarkable, like, rare thing that you have
01:02:03Thank you so much
01:02:03Thank you, John
01:02:04John, who is the winner of this battle?
01:02:08The winner of this battle
01:02:12Is Syd
01:02:13Say, Syd! Congratulations!
01:02:16We are moving on to the knockouts for Team Legend
01:02:19Ashley and Syd
01:02:20Both of these girls are really talented
01:02:22But Syd is just such a phenomenal performer
01:02:25She hit some of the highest notes you'll ever hear an artist sing
01:02:28As she does it effortlessly
01:02:30It's really remarkable
01:02:31She belongs in the finale of this show
01:02:33She's really special
01:02:44Welcome back to the battles at Universal Studios Hollywood
01:02:49All right, Abigail
01:02:50All right, thank you
01:02:51All right, thank you
01:02:52All right, have fun
01:02:52All right
01:02:53It's only about a minute and we'll go
01:02:55Yes, ma'am
01:02:56All right, here we go, everybody
01:02:58Last time I was in this room was the blind audition
01:03:01And I got a three chair turn
01:03:03Thank you
01:03:04But there's still a lot that I want to show
01:03:06I want to work with Kelly
01:03:07And I hope to stay around for some more rounds
01:03:10And learn all that I can from her
01:03:13The voice is such a huge opportunity for me
01:03:16I'm from a really small town
01:03:17And getting on a stage that can be seen all across America
01:03:20Is something that I am so blessed to experience
01:03:22When I walk on stage, I'm going to be thinking about
01:03:26Doing my best, being myself, and making my family proud
01:03:29I am so excited for this
01:03:31Who will win this team's Kelly battle?
01:03:33Whether it's Abigail Oakley or Julia Goldman
01:03:44Abigail or Julia
01:03:47Hi ladies
01:03:47Hello
01:03:48Abigail versus Julia
01:03:50The voices are similar in some ways
01:03:52But still different
01:03:54Abigail is more folk
01:03:56Julia is more country
01:03:58They're singing Rhiannon by Fleetwood Mac
01:04:01I think this is the perfect song because it kind of bridges them
01:04:04Can you tell me a little bit about yourselves?
01:04:06Who wants to start?
01:04:08I can go
01:04:09Abigail, you go first
01:04:10Because she said you're a little shy
01:04:11I'm a little shy
01:04:12She told me
01:04:13Yes, I'm a songwriter
01:04:14I live in Nashville
01:04:16I've done music all my life
01:04:18Tell me a little bit about you, Julia
01:04:19I'm 19
01:04:21I'm from North Carolina
01:04:22I sing country music
01:04:23But I love everything
01:04:24Rock Americana
01:04:25Stevie Nicks is like my idol
01:04:26So I'm really excited to be singing this song
01:04:28Speaking of the song
01:04:29I want to hear you ladies sing it
01:04:31All your life
01:04:32You've never seen a woman
01:04:34Taking back
01:04:36You know what's interesting?
01:04:37Abigail naturally has a yodel in her voice
01:04:40Which normally comes from more of a country style of singing that Julia does
01:04:45She is like a cat in the dark and then she is
01:04:50Which maybe is why they work so well together
01:04:52Would you stay if she promised you
01:04:55Julia, her vibrato is special
01:04:57And then the energy that she exudes when she's singing
01:05:02It's infectious, it takes the womb
01:05:05Two completely different personalities
01:05:09They're both captivating in their own way
01:05:14Yes, y'all
01:05:16Yes
01:05:17You are so interesting and captivating
01:05:20Aw, wow
01:05:21I tend to be one with a big personality, right?
01:05:24But it's the people who are so quiet are the most interesting
01:05:26As an artist, take us into that world
01:05:29I'm big on like owning who you are
01:05:32And the energy you bring
01:05:34I saw this bubbleness
01:05:35Like you were like
01:05:36You like you want to just twirl around
01:05:37Twirl around
01:05:37If that's what you feel
01:05:39This is your moment
01:05:40Make sure you're the focal point
01:05:42Allow yourself to be every bit of you
01:05:44Cause you're the stars
01:05:46It's y'alls for the taking
01:05:47Both of them have the star power
01:05:50So what this comes down to
01:05:52Is who shines the brightest on the day
01:05:54All your life you've never seen a woman
01:05:59Taken by the wind
01:06:00Would you stay if she promised you heaven
01:06:05Will you ever win?
01:06:09Will you ever win?
01:06:19Rihanna
01:06:27Rihanna
01:06:39Rihanna
01:06:46Rihanna
01:06:48Rihanna
01:07:08Rihanna
01:07:22Rihanna
01:07:30Rihanna
01:07:40All right
01:07:43Abigail there's this beautiful quality to your voice when you get up there in your upper register
01:07:48Beautiful transition to fall so I just want to hear more you know so I would I would go with
01:07:51Abigail but Julia you did a great job
01:07:53Thank you so much
01:07:55Abigail I loved the verse a lot with you like you you had like a really nice round tone
01:08:01It just felt really solid and like comfortable and then I felt like that part of the song was weaker
01:08:07for you Julia
01:08:08But then when you came in on the higher parts it felt really good and the energy you were giving
01:08:12on stage felt right
01:08:14I'm gonna say Julia
01:08:15Okay
01:08:16Thank you coaches
01:08:19All right Kelly give us a few thoughts before you pick a winner
01:08:21There were moments that both of you the reason why you're here you both have something really magical with your
01:08:26tone
01:08:26You both have something really magical about your voices that are very different
01:08:30I thought that you did a good job with the song I do like both of your blinds better
01:08:34I think that you're both artists that really benefit from space like in a song of it
01:08:39Not all the things kind of happening at once and fighting against it especially
01:08:43Having to battle someone you've never sung with before you know
01:08:47Kelly who is the winner of this battle?
01:08:55The winner of this battle
01:09:00Is Abigail
01:09:03Abigail
01:09:03Congratulations you're on the knockout for Team Kelly
01:09:07Abigail and Julia are both very talented but Abigail is a true storyteller
01:09:12That's the thing that wins me over about her
01:09:13She has this intensity that is purposeful but it's intimate and it shows this way of like being soft but
01:09:20also very pointed
01:09:21I have six incredible artists coming into the knockouts my team crushed it so I'm pretty stoked about today
01:09:27We love you so much Kelly
01:09:28Oh thank you
01:09:39Welcome back
01:09:40KJ and Mike our last pairing
01:09:43Gentlemen y'all how lucky are we to have money long here
01:09:46Oh we're blessed
01:09:47Yes
01:09:48To have money long here
01:09:49I'm so excited she is going to be giving you guys advice on your battle
01:09:53We're having a good time today
01:09:54All right absolutely
01:09:55Yeah last but not least
01:09:58KJ and Mike they're both R&B singers it just felt naturally they would sound great together
01:10:03What you guys been up to?
01:10:05Man I've been at home with my babies
01:10:07With my kids
01:10:08Yeah how many babies you got?
01:10:09Just two
01:10:09Two?
01:10:10How old are they?
01:10:11I have a five year old daughter and my son is seven months
01:10:14So deny the truth
01:10:19Or stay behind
01:10:21My daughter was really stoked when I got a triple chair turn
01:10:24Triple turn baby!
01:10:27And that was validating that I can make it in this industry
01:10:30But you know it's been kind of hard trying to balance school and being on the show because it's non
01:10:35-stop
01:10:36But it's so worth it because it will mean more than the world to me to bring home that degree
01:10:41and that trophy for my baby girl and her little brother
01:10:44I love you
01:10:49I love you
01:10:50Mwah
01:10:52When I'm at home and I'm in my down time we're doing shows and we gigging and making it happen
01:10:57I love it
01:10:59I try to sing every day all day and gig as much as I can
01:11:03I'm real structured I'm really just adamant about taking this opportunity and put my best foot forward
01:11:11Making my parents proud is the thing that I live for
01:11:15They've sacrificed so much
01:11:17My daddy was in the military
01:11:18It was a choice made to provide for a family
01:11:22My dad's background taught me a strong work ethic
01:11:25I've been the kid, you know, who was super creative but didn't like school
01:11:31Now that I've found something that I'm focused on, I'm really harnessing it to let it push me to work
01:11:37more
01:11:37Well, I'm so excited to hear y'all sing Let Me Love You written by the great Neo
01:11:42Performed by the great Mario
01:11:43This is one of the great classic R&B songs truly of this last 25 years
01:11:49Both of y'all are really good R&B singers but with really different tones
01:11:53I felt like this song would be a great song for both of you to sing so I'm excited to
01:11:58hear you
01:11:58Yeah, baby, I just don't get it
01:12:03Mike has all this air around his voice
01:12:06His tone is so distinctive
01:12:07A lot of guys with that kind of tone don't have the range that Mike has
01:12:12So the combination of his tone and the range he has is really exceptional
01:12:16So can we make this thing go
01:12:19And he also has power
01:12:21He was hitting the high notes nicely
01:12:22Yeah, no, he can belt a little bit
01:12:24Yeah
01:12:24It was good
01:12:24Yeah
01:12:26You should let me love you
01:12:28KJ has all of the runs
01:12:31The scales are crazy
01:12:34And his ability to pick where to do it and how he can fit so many notes in one little
01:12:40tiny part
01:12:42And it doesn't sound cluttered
01:12:44That is very, very skillful ability
01:12:47Let me love you
01:12:54Yeah
01:12:56Man, this is gonna be really good
01:12:58Both of y'all really sound good together
01:13:01And I like the back and forth
01:13:03And I like that you guys were more answering each other than trying to harmonize most of the time
01:13:07That's my new favorite of the day
01:13:10Neither of you need to try to worry about being better than the other at what you do
01:13:14Because your styles are so different from each other
01:13:17Like just be the best you
01:13:19Be mindful of what you do on stage
01:13:21Because part of how you convince the audience to fall in love with you
01:13:24Is just your demeanor, your swag, the way you physically carry yourselves
01:13:28The tiebreaker will be charisma, stage presence, all that good stuff
01:13:32Don't they call that dirty mackin?
01:13:34That's what they call that
01:13:35Dirty mackin
01:13:36I'm happy
01:13:37It's really good
01:13:38Yeah, so I'm gonna give you a little secret
01:13:40When you freestyle singing like the way that we do
01:13:43The rule is eight notes
01:13:44Mmm
01:13:46Right?
01:13:48Don't do more than that
01:13:49If you're gonna do a run
01:13:52Finish it at eight
01:13:53Just count it
01:13:54You know what I'm saying?
01:13:55That's interesting
01:13:56I've never heard that
01:13:57Yeah
01:13:58I just gave you something
01:13:59Now I'm gonna go back and listen to my records
01:14:01And start counting
01:14:02No, seriously
01:14:03All of the hit songs in the main melody will not have more than eight notes
01:14:09Yeah
01:14:09Mani's coaching is good because Mani understands all of the ingredients that go into hits
01:14:15She kept us electrifying
01:14:16I'm excited y'all
01:14:18This is gonna be a great performance
01:14:19Yeah, this is really good

01:14:34Oh yeah, that's what's up man
01:14:36After rehearsing
01:14:37I feel like
01:14:38I picked
01:14:39The best coach
01:14:41His advice
01:14:42His energy
01:14:44It was
01:14:45Everything
01:14:46Everything
01:14:47So nice to be here
01:14:48Best of luck to you all
01:14:49We wanted to make it hard for our coach to send
01:14:51Any one of us home
01:14:53You think you're gonna be able to pick?
01:14:55I don't know
01:14:55I don't know
01:14:56I always wait till the day
01:14:57And see how it goes that day
01:14:58Cause some people just step up
01:15:00When it's time
01:15:01When the light's on
01:15:01The pressure's on
01:15:02And that's when I decide
01:15:04Cause based on rehearsal
01:15:05I could go either way

01:18:24Yeah
01:18:25Yeah
01:18:26Yeah
01:18:27Wow
01:18:29That was really good
01:18:31Yeah
01:18:31You are so screwed
01:18:33Yeah
01:18:34I know, I know, I know
01:18:34I know, I know
01:18:35I mean, that was incredible
01:18:36That was so, so good and tasteful
01:18:39The whole time I was like, tennis
01:18:40I was like, oh damn
01:18:42And then I'd be like, oh damn
01:18:43Going back and forth
01:18:44And especially, oh my god, Mike
01:18:46This one run you just did towards the end
01:18:48That went all the way down
01:18:49It went down low
01:18:49It was like, what?
01:18:51It was so good
01:18:52I loved it
01:18:53I thought, KJ, you're a little more like higher
01:18:56Even when you're doing the high stuff
01:18:57There's just such a body to it
01:18:59Honestly, guys, you're both incredible
01:19:00I mean, great job
01:19:03Yeah
01:19:03I don't know which way I'd lead
01:19:05Thank you so much, Kelly
01:19:06I know
01:19:07Thank you so much
01:19:08I know
01:19:08Yes
01:19:09I'm just mad at myself for pairing them now
01:19:11First of all, the swag that's going on right now
01:19:14With these fits
01:19:15Yeah
01:19:15The fellas look good
01:19:16They look good
01:19:17You guys were great
01:19:18KJ, you were a big surprise to me
01:19:20I didn't turn for you in the blinds
01:19:22But you've since then made me a believer
01:19:24But Mike, when you create a moment that makes us all go
01:19:27Oh my god
01:19:28Which was that big run down that you did
01:19:29It was the most memorable for me moment of the entire thing
01:19:32So I think maybe I would lean towards Mike
01:19:34But it will be a very, very tough choice for you
01:19:36Okay, I will lean towards KJ to even it out
01:19:38Because I like both
01:19:39Oh my god
01:19:40Thank you, coaches
01:19:41Oh my goodness
01:19:43All right, Johnny got the final decision
01:19:44Give us some thoughts on it first
01:19:45This is hard
01:19:48Because you guys both are just phenomenal singers
01:19:51Your tones are so different from each other
01:19:54Mike, your tone has so much air around it
01:19:57And it's so like round and beautiful
01:20:00And then I love that vibe of your tone, KJ
01:20:03Like it's really dope
01:20:04Like some of the best R&B and soul singers have that
01:20:07And grew up on Stevie Wonder and tried to sound like him
01:20:09And like that's the kind of tone you have
01:20:12And I love it
01:20:13Both of you are just phenomenally talented
01:20:15And it was just a really great performance
01:20:17And I'm really proud of both of you
01:20:19And I'm excited for both of you
01:20:22Johnny got a difficult decision
01:20:23But the time has come
01:20:25Who is the winner of this battle?
01:20:28The winner of this battle
01:20:34Is KJ
01:20:37KJ, congratulations
01:20:38You've even honored the knockout
01:20:40KJ and Mike make me so proud
01:20:42You know, I chose KJ as the winner
01:20:43KJ's such a real singer
01:20:45Like he has so much range and flexibility in his voice
01:20:48You killed it
01:20:49Well done
01:20:49I really do enjoy his tone
01:20:51It reminds me of some of the singers
01:20:52I grew up listening to
01:20:53I'm excited to see what KJ will do next
01:20:55I wish I could see it
01:20:57Good to remind you that Mike's available to Steele
01:20:58Mike, anything you want to say to John?
01:21:02Man, I'm Joe
01:21:02I'm so grateful to be here
01:21:04I thank you for turning your chair around for me
01:21:06I can truly say, you know
01:21:07It's a dream come true for sure
01:21:09Whoa, hold everything
01:21:11We got a Steele
01:21:14It's a Steele for Mike Steele
01:21:16Adam uses his one and only Steele for Mike
01:21:20Adam, talk to us
01:21:21Man, I really did think he was going to pick you
01:21:23And when he didn't, I was so shook
01:21:25I was like, that means like, I can have him on my team
01:21:28Like, I was so surprised
01:21:30There's a tone in your voice that I love
01:21:33So man, welcome to my team
01:21:35Yeah
01:21:36Go meet your new coach, Mike
01:21:38Congratulations
01:21:40Adam Levine steals Mike from John
01:21:42I'm a Mike fan
01:21:43I turned for Mike in the Blind
01:21:45I thought Mike won that one
01:21:46So it was really kind of easy to try and steal him
01:21:48Mike adds definitely a facet that I do not have
01:21:51Which is a really strong male vocalist
01:21:53In the kind of R&B vein
01:21:56And I'm just really happy he's on my team
01:21:58Man, that was a good one
01:22:00I was surprised
01:22:01What do you want with Mike?
01:22:02What I want to learn with Adam
01:22:03Everything
01:22:03He wants to learn everything
01:22:07Yo, we're going to have fun, man
01:22:08I missed you the first time
01:22:09But I got you the second time
01:22:10Most definitely
01:22:11Yeah, man
01:22:12Yes, sir, let's go
01:22:13All right, man
01:22:14See you soon
01:22:18Oh, man, that's crazy
01:22:19That's crazy
01:22:21That's it, friends
01:22:22That's the last battle
01:22:23Did y'all enjoy yourselves?
01:22:26Good music
01:22:29Oh
01:22:30Yeah
01:22:32Who needs score?
01:22:38Get ready for this, y'all
01:22:40I'm super excited for knockouts
01:22:41Let's go
01:22:42I think the knockouts are going to be so competitive
01:22:45Oh my God
01:22:47Look, I'm excited to work with my whole team
01:22:49Because I didn't get to work with them in the battles
01:22:51Dude
01:22:52I love my mega mentor
01:22:54And we have some twists and turns coming our way
01:22:58CeeLo Green
01:23:02CeeLo's a wizard
01:23:03A wizard
01:23:04He's a wild man
01:23:05I was born to win
