22x10 - The Battles Part 3

Post by bunniefuu »

[ Cheers and applause ]

Daly:
Give it up for our coaches.

Camila Cabello,
our latest coach.

Crushing it this year,
Camila.

Crushing it!
Crushing it!

Blake, you're an old-timer here
in the Battle Rounds.

How's our friend Camila
doing so far?

Yikes! He called you
an old-timer.

He did say that,
didn't he?

He's been here as long
as I have, though.

Yes, that is true.

I think the three of us
would agree

that we all love Camila
as a person.

Aww!
I'm your little buddy!

Very talented.

John: We agree.
We agree.

But...
But...

[ Laughter ]

...she has the potential
to be a really sucky coach.

Camila, whose team do you think
is a threat to yours?

I honestly think everybody's,
except Blake.

What?!
[ Laughter ]

Daly:
Thank you, Coaches.

The season 22 Battles
continue right now.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Woman: Okay.
Team Camila next Battle pairing.

Eric Who,
you will be battling

Sydney Kronmiller.

Let's go, Eric!
Sydney!

Sydney! Sydney!

Girl, what we gonna do?!

[ Laughter ]

Woman: You will be performing
"Paparazzi" by Lady Gaga.

Stop it.
Oh, yes! Yes!

Give me Lady Gaga now!
Yes!

I'm really excited for you
to meet Eric and Sydney.
I love it.

In their blind auditions,
they both chose a singer

who their voice was totally
unlike the original.

So I was like,
"Oh, we should do a flip."

You know what I mean?
They should do "Paparazzi."

Oh. You're very good
at the pairings.
Thank you.

You've been k*lling it.
Thank you.

Hey, guys!
Oh! Oh, no!

Yes!
Hey, guys!

Don't run away.

Camila! Charlie!

I'm like, "Well, who's there
standing by Camila?"

It was Charlie damn Puth!
Charlie!

I love your whole outfit.
Charlie...

Charlie: Oh, God.

I was like, "Oh, my God!
I'm hugging Charlie Puth!"

Perfect song.
Yeah.

Thank you.
Really? Great.

Yeah, yeah. We've had a lot
of fun with the arrangement.

You both picked pop music
in your blind auditions, right?

You picked Billie Eilish.
Billie Eilish. Yeah.

* Nose, sleeping,
you're on your tippy toes *

* Creeping *
Hey, hey!

Camila turned around, like,
the third line I sang.

* So criminal *

It was unreal.

I've never performed
any secular type of music.

I've only performed
in the church.

I love this song and this voice
that I wouldn't expect.

And you have
a beautiful tone.

That gave me so much motivation
and confidence.

Like, I got on the team
that I wanted to be on,

which is Team Camila!

It's just -- It's unreal.

And you picked...
"Latch" by Sam Smith.

Yes.
Charlie: Wow!

Which is why I was like,

"Oh, they're pop,
but they're weird."

[ Laughs ]
And I like that.

* I'm latching on *

* Latching on, bae *

Oh, my God!
* I feel
we're close enough *

Sydney:
To have Camila turn around

and, like, react so positively
to kind of a different

lower-sounding voice
that I've got,

that was, like,
the highest compliment.

Camila: That's a very, like,
vulnerable and intimate choice.

You're just everything
that I'm looking for you.

Awesome.
Thank you so much.

I picked Camila because
she knows what it's like

to be in our shoes,
and I thought that that would be

immensely helpful to have
her insight going forward.

Both:
* Baby, you'll be famous *

* Chase you down
until you love me *

* Papa, paparazzi *

* I'll be your boy... *

Camila:
I think Eric is such a star.

He makes songs his own, and
he is, like, a whole package,

which is what excites me
about him,

is I think people are gonna
fall in love with him.

* It don't have a price *

* Loving you is... *

Sydney's voice had a lot
of haunting qualities.

And the scales
that she was singing --

like, those very complex,
chromaticism-based scales.

That's just music
mumbo-jumbo talk for

she sang a lot of notes

and she hit them all in a row
very well.

Both: * Paparazzi *

Wow.
Good God!

When you sang together,
that was my favorite bits

because you just sang it
so perfectly.

Is there anything that
you're struggling with?

I just don't want to
come off too dramatic.

I actually wrote
in capital letters

and circled it --
"Drama."

Yay!

Like, is Lady Gaga
"too dramatic"?

Great point. Love that.
Right.

If I'm being honest, you know,
like, growing up

in South Carolina,
if somebody calls you dramatic,

it's not good.

They're trying to say
you need to calm down

'cause you a boy.

And for me,
growing up in the church

in front of my stepdad

singing all kind of
spiritual and gospel songs,

and I'm about to be
singing "Paparazzi"

about chasing a boy,
it's crazy,

but I have transformed
as an artist.

And I have a boyfriend
for the first time

in my 22 years of living.

He's very proud of me.

He was just like,
"You deserve this.

It's time for people
to see you shine."

Sydney,
for those low verses,

the placement
is really important.

The more that you can kind
of picture the mask, like --

Yeah.
Kind of making it nasal.

* Na-na your show *

Almost singing like --
Almost humorous.

So you get to --
Because it is --

* C to a F
is really hard to hear *

Yeah.
And, by the way,

when it goes
to the F sharp minor...

* My *

Yeah, it's crazy.
You just -- Pfft.

Sydney:
It was crazy just to hear
Charlie Puth giving us pointers

because he's an influence
that I've had for so long.

I had heard his song
"Attention."

I was like,
"Who's Charlie Puth?"

Looked at his Wikipedia page.

Under Education, it says
Berklee College of Music.

And that's where I decided
I wanted to go.

So now I'm a senior at Berklee,
and I've been studying there

music, writing, and production.

Now I'm out here just, like,
doing what I've actually

always wanted to do for you.

For you, Eric,
the breath support...

Okay.
...is really important.

You can achieve that by doing
a little [yawns] yawn.

And you'll get a little bit
more oxygen that way.

Can we hear you guys
both do that first verse

with that kind of,
like, in-the-mask nasal

and, like, coming out through
that roof of your mouth?

* We are the crowd *
Yes.

* And we're coming out *
Wow.

Way better.

* Leather and jeans *
Yeah.

* Garage glamorous *

Yes! So much better!
A world of a difference.

A million times better.
Wow.

Awesome. Thank you.
Thank you.

I think this is
gonna be a close one

because they both shine
in their own way.

I'm excited for you guys.
But it's gonna be about

who brings that special sauce
the day of the show.

They're k*lling, right?
Charlie: Yes.

That was so good.

This round is gonna be
especially tricky for Camila.

The person who really
pulls everybody in

is gonna be
the true winner of this.

There's so many unique voices
here today at NBC's "The Voice."

I know.
Daly: Coming up...

* Eyeliner
and cigarettes *

* Shadow is burnt *

Your voice is shocking.

Daly: ...the artists leave
our coaches in turmoil.

Who is the winner
of this battle?

You pick Carson!
You pick!

And later, a battle
that leads to an epic save.

Both: * And I stood there
like a fence post *

That was so awesome.

Your singing
was incredible.

All:
* How deep is your love *

* How deep is your love *

Daly: Ohh!
Wow!

Oh, my gosh!
That's the sound of a save!

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly:
Welcome back to the Battles

at Universal Studios Hollywood.

Camila: Yeah!

**

[ Both laugh ]
I love it.

I'm so scared!
Whoa, h*, h*!

Let the battle begin.

Let's go. You good?
Let's do it.

You got this, babies!

**

* We are the crowd
and we're coming out *

* Got my flash on, it's true,
need that picture of you *

* It's so magical *

* We'd be
so fantastic, oh *

[ Cheers and applause ]

* Leather and jeans,
garage glamorous *

* Not sure what it means,
but this photo of us *

* It don't have a price *

* Ready for those
flashing lights *

* 'Cause you know
that, baby, I *

Both:
* I'm your biggest fan *

* I'll follow you
until you love me *

* Papa, paparazzi *

* Baby, there's
no other superstar *

* You know that I'll be *

* Your papa, paparazzi *

* Promise I'll be kind *

* But I won't stop *

* Until that boy is mine *

* Baby, you'll be famous *

* Chase you down
until you love me *

* Papa, paparazzi *

* I'll be your boy
backstage at your show *

* Velvet ropes
and guitars *

* Yeah, 'cause
you're my rock star *

* In between the sets *

* Eyeliner and cigarettes *

* Shadow is burnt,
yellow dance and return *

* My lashes are dry,
purple teardrops I cry *

* It don't have a price *

* Loving you
is cherry pie *

* 'Cause you know that,
baby *

Both: * I *

* Paparazzi *

* I *

* Paparazzi *

* Promise I'll be kind *

* But I won't stop *

* Until that boy is mine *

Yes! Harmony!

* Baby, you'll be famous *

* Chase you down
until you love me *

* Papa, paparazzi *

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

My babies!

My babies
did me proud!

**

Beautiful.

I really loved this performance
because it was just so weird.

And I mean that in a good way.
Like, great weird.

Eric, you're so rare
because everything about you

is just so theatrical and...

[ Cheers and applause ]

[ Laughs ]

Yeah, I loved it.
It was so engaging.

And that's just the visual.
Your voice is so beautiful.

Thank you.

And, Sydney,
your vocal style

is different than anything
out there right now.

Thank you.
It's so unique.

But I couldn't keep
my eyes off Eric.

You have this alternative aura,
an edge about you,

but yet you sing like
a soulful pop singer,

so it's, like,
a weird contrast of styles.

You kind of won me
on that level, so...

Thank you so much.

Sydney, so few people
can sing that low

and sing it really well,
live especially.

That was really remarkable.

And the fact
that you can do that

and still have the higher notes
in your register, too,

you really gave
a great performance.

That was really lovely.
Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Eric, you just have
a light within you,

and you let it exude,

and your voice has
a really cool lilt to it.

It floats in a certain way.
Thank you.

I really found it so cool
to listen to.

Both of you
were phenomenal.

Thank you.
Thank you.

Sydney,
your voice is shocking.
Thank you.

And if it came on the radio,
I'd turn it up.

Thank you so much.
I appreciate that.

And Eric comes out here
like the happiest person

and makes everybody happy
when they sing.

You know what I'm saying?

That is --
That is true.

Our new buddy here has got a --
got a tough one.

W.W.B.D.?
What would Blake do?

You know, I couldn't
say no to Eric.

Daly:
Thank you, Coaches!

Camila, you have
the final decision.

I know, Carson Daly!
I know.

Sydney, I have literally

never heard a voice
like yours before.

Thank you so much.

Your note choices were
so different and weird.

And the way you slide
in and out of falsetto.

And then, Eric, I saw you
really grow as an artist

and step into somebody

that I'm really excited
to hear on the radio,

see perform in shows.

Um, and I'm so stressed.

Daly: Camila, we know
you love them both,
but the time has come.

Who is the winner
of this battle?

Gwen:
See, now she's really feeling

what the Battles are all
about right there, yeah.

I hate it.
Yeah.

I'm going home.

[ Laughter ]

**

This is really,
really hard.

The winner
of this Battle is...

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the Battles.

Camila, who is the winner
of this battle?

**

This is really,
really hard.

The winner of
this Battle is...

Eric.

Daly: Eric is moving on
to the Knockouts.

Congratulations.

Camila: I chose Eric because
he's just too captivating.

I'm curious to see
how he evolves,

and I just want
to keep watching him.

I'm so proud of you, baby.
Thank you!

I cannot believe
I just won my Battle! Yee!

Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh.

I gotta calm down, girl!
Damn, I'm happy!

Give it up for
Sydney Kronmiller,

ladies and gentlemen!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Camila: I was really sad
that I couldn't save Sydney

because she was
one of the people

I was most excited about
on my team.

It's hard. I know.
You did good.

Yeah.

My team this year is -- I got
a little bit of everything.

And this is gonna be

one of my tough pairings
that I have to do.

I'm the only person that turned
around for both of these guys.

Oh, wow.
Nobody else knows
crap about country.

And they won't admit it.
There you go. Yeah.

And so I always know they're
gonna wait and see what I do.

And so now I've learned to
just wait until the last minute

to push my button.

Then turn around.
That's right.

I've paired Benny and Brayden
against each other.

I think Benny is definitely
a little bit more polished

of a performer.

Brayden has tons of potential,
and you can really see

someone as young as he is
develop and come a long way.

I just wanted to see which one
of these two could stand out

as the better male vocalist.

[ Chuckles ] What's up?
No way.

Y'all come in
and meet Jimmie Allen.

How y'all doing, man?
What's up, bro?
How are you doing?

When I walked in the room
and saw that Blake's adviser

was Jimmie Allen,
I was so excited.

A really current artist
with a lot of hits.

He won a CMA Award.
Between him and Blake,

I know that I'm gonna get
a lot from both of them.

Good to see you, man.
God. I forgot how tall you are.

How tall are you?
Like 6'4".

Man, if I was 6'4",
I'd be in the NBA, dude.

Would you?
Yeah.

You can have
a longer career, though,

with what you chose.
True.

'Cause you can't tell a girl,

"I'm-a dunk this basketball
for you."
Right.

But you can say,
"I'm-a write this song for you."

Yeah.
That's right.

How you been?
I'm good.

I don't remember
you being this shy

when you were up there
singing your butt off.

I guess I played it off
pretty well.

I was so nervous.
Man. That's what's up.

I was shaking out of my shoes
before I went in.

Brayden brought his
entire family up on stage.

Brayden:
My family's real important.

I feel like with everything
I do, they're supporting me.

I love how happy your sister is.
I mean, literally, she is --

Oh, I can't even handle it.

I haven't been singing that
long, maybe a year and a half,

so to get a chair turn
from Blake, I was so happy.

[ Cheers and applause ]

* You *
Yeah!

Let's mess with this thing.
Alright.

I gave these guys "Pretty Heart"
by Parker McCollum

because this is a good song

for both of them to feel
comfortable and settle down.

* Didn't think
I was a bad guy *

* I knew that
you were good *

Jimmie:
What I liked about Benny's voice

is how his vocal cut through.

You could hear every word,
every syllable.

And that's a rare gift.

* I'm the one
that dropped the ball *

Brayden kind of gave me
a country John Mayer vibe.

It's not huge and powerful,

but I was noticing
when he felt comfortable

with what he was singing
it sounded really good.

* What does that say
about me? *

I sang a pop song
for my blind audition,

but I like that Blake realized

that me and Benny
could do country, too,

because that's
what I want to do.

I feel like newer country
is what you hear on the radio,

or at least in my town.

Kind of reminds me
of just the times in the car

with your family
rolling the windows down

and just jamming
to some country music.

I think the singing is there.
It's just now being believable.

Jimmie: Every song you sing,
whether it's your song or not,

find a way
to make that song yours.
Mm-hmm.

What do y'all think about
when y'all sing that song?

I connect with the song
on a very personal level.

After having been married
for five years,

I went through a divorce.

The song says, "I didn't think
I was a bad guy,

and I knew you were good."

And when you go through
a heartbreak,

it's difficult not to feel like
you're a bad person.

So it hits close to home
with me.

I had all this emotion
that I needed to get out,

and that's when I started
performing again and realized

that I need music in my life.

And music is everything to me.

When Blake turned,
I had this wave of relief.

* Baby, you wanna dance
till the sunlight cracks *

* When they say
the party's over *

* Then we'll bring it
right back *

Welcome to Team Blake,
buddy.

Do y'all both always play
guitars when you sing?

Always playing it,
like, in gigs and at home.

Are you playing it because
you're adding to the song

or are you playing it
because it's a crutch?

It's just something to always
think about moving forward.

Or are you playing it
to hide your gut?

Yeah, to hide your gut.
[ Laughs ]

How old are you?
29.

And...?
15.

15.
Wait, wait. What?

Yeah.

Boy, I got socks
older than you.

The thing that's standing out
is he's clearly

been doing this longer
than you have.

And because of that,
he's more comfortable.

Yeah.
You're gonna think
I'm crazy

when I say this to you.

The first time
I ever met Taylor Swift

was when she was 16.

She didn't realize that
the world was literally

at her fingertips,
and you have that quality,

but you got to start
singing like that.

Nerves are good.
It means you care.

But find ways
to make sure it's fun.

I'm just gonna practice
every day,

try to get better
until the real stage performance

and then do my best
out there.

He's kind of a shy guy,
Benny,

until he gets in front
of that microphone,

and then you're projecting,
you're singing loud,

and it sounds great, but you're
a little bit freaked out.

But you need to know
if you can get over this hump,

you'll never be handed something
as weird as "The Voice" again.

And that's what I love about
starting on this platform,

because when you leave here,

the Grammys and things like that
seem like a cakewalk.

It's like, "Oh, you just want me
to go out and sing?

Oh, God, I can do that."

I have a little bit of worry
about the more country twang

that Brayden has over me.

I specialize more in pop,

and so I really have to
tap into my experience

as a performer
and really convince Blake

that I'm the one
that should be here.

Now just go out there
and sing the hell out of it

and make this one of
the worst days of my life.

Between Brayden and Benny,
I don't know.

It's one of them things
where you got to wait

and see who shows up,
because you can be

more experienced, and things
completely go opposite

when the lights come on.

This is a in-the-moment,

kind of wait and
see what's gonna happen.

Thank you.
Thanks, guys.

Alright. Let's just
run through it once.

Yeah.

I think with Jimmie saying like,

"Yeah, the guitar
is nice to have,

but is it gonna make you
sing the best?"

In rehears --
I don't know about you --

I felt like -- I felt
a little weird

playing the guitar
with the whole band.

'Cause you can't even
really hear us.

I feel like we're just playing
it to have it in our hands.

We might just want
to drop the guitar

and sing the song,
and we'll see how it goes.

Sounds good.

Let's do this.
Let's do it.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

Who will win
this team Blake battle?!

Will it be
the 29-year-old from Montana,

Benny Weag?

[ Cheers and applause ]

Oh. Whoa, h*!
Comin' in hot!

Or the 15-year-old
from Michigan,

Brayden Lape?

[ Cheers and applause ]

15. Oh, my gosh!

Let's go.

The Battle starts now.

**

That's country right there.

That's country.

* I didn't think
I was a bad guy *

* I knew
that you were good *

* You were golden
on the inside *

* And you loved me
the best you could *

* I'm the one
who dropped the ball *

* Got you high
and let you fall *

* Let the best thing
I ever had slip away *

* What does that say
about me *

* I could do you
like I did? *

* That I can break
an angel's wings? *

* What does that say
about me *

* That I stood there
like a fence post *

* As you drove off
in your car *

* What does that say
about me *

* Now that I've broke *

* Your pretty heart? *

* Your pretty heart *

* What does that say
about me *

* I could do you
like I did? *

* That I can break
an angel's wings? *

* What does that say
about me? *

Both: * That I stood there
like a fence post *

* As you drove off
in your car? *

* What does that say
about me *

* Now that I've broke *

* Your pretty heart? *

* Your pretty heart *

* Your pretty heart *

* Your pretty heart *

* Your pretty heart *

* Your pretty heart *

* Your pretty he-a-a-art *

Both:
* Your pretty he-a-a-a-art *

[ Cheers and applause ]

So cute.

**

I like that break.
That break he has.

Me too. I love that.

Guys, that was so awesome!

Thank you.
Thank you.

Amazing job. Brayden,
I can't believe you're 15.

I think he's grown a foot
since I saw him.

[ Laughs ] I know.

15. That's the same age
I was when I was on...

Did another
competition show.

Did a singing
competition show!
Amazing.

I would have so had
a crush on you.

[ Laughter ]

I think you have
a beautiful tone.

I love that crack
that you have in your voice.
Yeah.

It is very
pop-record friendly.

And the fact
that you're 15 is crazy.

Thank you.

And, Benny, your voice,
when you came in, I was like,

"Oh, my God. Why did I not
turn around for you?"

You're a great singer.

For me, the winner
of this Battle was Brayden

just because I feel like
that tone captures

that 15-year-old innocence
that you have.

Like, you can hear that
in your voice.

Thank you.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Benny, you came out
with so much energy.

Just even punching the air,
like, ready to go.

Yeah.
Your singing
was incredible.

I just think
stage-presence wise,

it felt a little bit
almost too much.

Maybe just focus more
on the lyric,

feel the song
through your body.

That would be my advice.
Yeah. Thank you.

Brayden, you have a beautiful,
beautiful voice.

I can't wait to see what happens
in the next few years

'cause there's just
so much growing to do.

Not literally.
Yeah. No more growing.

Well, maybe.

Benny, I love the tone
of your voice.

It just sounds confident
and assured.

I think sometimes you push
a little too much,

which can take away from
the beauty of your voice,

which is really great.
Thank you.

And then, Brayden,
I feel like you have

a bit more to develop
as a vocalist,

but your tone is
so interesting and cool.

So that's the choice
that Blake will have to make.

Daly:
Thank you, Coaches.

All right, Blake,
final decision's yours.

Give us some thoughts
on the Battle first.

The line in the song is,
"What does that say about me?"

Benny, I think your approach
was more like,

"What did you say
about me?"

Like, coming out here
ready to fight,

just in your
stage presence.

Because, man, I thought
you sang really good.
Thank you.

And then, Brayden,
today, you know,

even more than in rehearsal,
it's like, "Oh, my gosh.

He is only 15." You know?
Mm-hmm. Yeah.

But I like that tone
in your voice

and the youth and some of
the inexperience, even,

because there's something about
that that's endearing.

Blake, who is the winner
of this Battle?

**

Winner of this Battle
is Brayden.

Brayden, congratulations. You're
moving on to the Knockouts

for Team Blake.

Blake: Brayden's just got all
this potential and star quality

about what he does
and just who he is.

He's just now starting
to find his feet.

And as he gets comfortable
in this situation,

sky's gonna be the limit.

Give it up
for Benny Weag!

Great job, Benny.

You did a great job.
Good luck, Benny.

[ Cheers and applause ]

So far,
I'm excited about my team, man.

There's so much talent.

I'm starting to see that
this is maybe

the strongest bunch
we've ever had.

* Say you'll see me again
even if it's just in *

* Your wildest dreams *

* Ahh-ahh *

I think we could really see
the contrast in the development

and the experience singing.

The winner of this Battle
is Eva.

Thank you so much.
Eva Ullmann!

Blake:
I was really surprised with Eva.

She's doing the right thing.
She's got a great voice.

She's ready for this.
And this is her moment.

* Even though
we're going through it *

* And it makes you
feel alone *

* Just know that
I would die for you *

* Baby, I would die
for you, ohh *

Morgan, I do believe you were
a bit more confident.

And your tone
is really just strong

and powerful
and beautiful.

The winner of this battle
is Morgan.

Daly: Morgan Taylor!
Congratulations.

John: The Battles
are going amazingly.

I love my team, but I also love
some of the other artists, too.

Both:
* H-o-o-o-ome *

* It'll all be alright *

* Be home tonight *

* I'm coming back home *

Daysia, I was just so amazed
with how much you've grown,

and your spirit
is incredible.

God, this is
a really hard one for me,

but the winner of
this battle is Daysia.

Daysia moving on
to the Knockouts.

Daysia, she has
some growing to do,

but she's really
a diamond in the rough.

Her voice can do so much.

Daysia's special.

She's such an old soul.

I am so inspired by the talent
we have this season.

I'm seeing artists step up

in ways that I didn't
necessarily expect.

So I'm gonna try to use
my steal and my save wisely.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the Battle Rounds.

**

The theme of this Battle
is "Maryland."

The singing sisters
the Marilynds,

they're originally
from Maryland,

and then Parijita
is from Baltimore.

Parijita is,
I think, only 17.
Oh, baby!

And she just carries herself
so maturely.

The Marilynds are this
wonderful duo of sisters.

They do pop and country.

I'm ready to hear it.
Here we go.

**

Oh, my...
[ Squeals ]

Hello.
Look who's here.

Jazmine: Hello.

They're excited
to see you.

Oh, my gosh.
Parijita's excited.

Parijita:
I am over the moon.

The fact that I just met
Jazmine Sullivan,

who is, like,
an R&B absolute icon?

I am absolutely blown away.

John: Meet
Jazmine Sullivan.

Being able to work
with, like, the best artists

in the business
is such an honor.

[ Chuckles ]
It's not real. But it is real.

We're singing
for Jazmine and John.

John: Oh, please.

I'm just as nervous
as you guys are. Please.

[ Laughter ]

So what did you think
about this song choice?

"How Deep Is Your Love."
You guys into it?

Our mom is a huge fan
of the Bee Gees,

so we grew up listening
to the Bee Gees.

Oh, cool. I feel like
this is a good blend

of the genres.

It's pop, but it's also soul.
And the harmonies.

I think it's just a perfect song
for all three of you

to do together.
Yeah.

The song that we're singing
is "How Deep Is Your Love"

by the Bee Gees.

We were so excited to see
some of the similarities

of their relationship
as brothers.

We both have been through
our fair share of hardships.

We struggled with
eating disorders at one point.

The only reason we've been
able to get through

these hard times is this bond
that we have with each other.

The support from my family
was everything.

[Voice breaking]
Those are the things

that you're just so grateful
and happy now.

Sorry.
[ Laughs ]

* What if I'm trying *

It's taken us a while

to have that blind-audition
moment sink in.

* Lost in that last goodbye *

I would be a great coach
for you.

And --
No, John! John, no!

[ Laughter ]

I have no doubt
in my mind...

If we're putting spotlights
over here, I'm just
gonna stand in it.

John.
Team John.

We've been singing since
we were little girls,

and this is, like,
the moment, you know,

that we've been
working so hard for.

* I know your eyes in the
morning sun, I feel... *

Jazmine: Parijita had
a beautiful, beautiful tone.

And I can hear her in five years

when she, like,
really steps into her voice,

and it's just gonna be
even more amazing.

That's a great part
of this process,

is seeing somebody so young

and just, like,
seeing their potential.

Both: * And you come to me on a
summer breeze, keep me warm... *

Jazmine:
The Marilynds were great.

There's nothing better
than when siblings harmonize.

It's like a blend
that you cannot duplicate.

All:
* We belong to you and me *

I loved it.
I love your tone.
Thank you.

But, also, when you mess up,
don't let us know.
Okay.

I mess up a lot. All the time.
[ Laughs ]
John: Hard to believe.

You won't know
because I'm kind of

just singing through it,
so just try not

to let it read on your face.

I'm more worried about what the
words are instead of letting --

intuitively know
what I'm going to sing.

So, yeah.

It's gonna be about
internalizing it

so it's not even a thought.
Right.

There are a couple of parts
that you're harmonizing

that don't feel like they lend
themselves to harmony that well.

* Come to me
like a summer breeze *

I think that doesn't
need a harmony.

I think that can be
just solo.

Okay. Any tips for, like,
how to calm nerves

right before
the big performance?

Drink Henny. Psyche.
[ Laughter ]

A shot.
A little
brown liquor.

I'm fully a minor.

She's joking
but not joking.

* It's closer
than my hands have been *

* Oh, I'm jealous of the rain *

John:
Sing that song, girl!

Parijita:
I could have never imagined

that I was gonna get
four chairs.

[ Cheering ]
Yes!

I'm actually the first
Nepalese American

to ever audition
on "The Voice."

Yeah, baby!
So I'm very excited!

I know a coach up here
that would be very good.

John!
Yeah!

Choosing John was
the perfect decision for me.

I'm really happy.

* I know your eyes
in the morning sun *

"How Deep Is Your Love"
is just such an emotional song.

The song reminds me that love
is about connection.

Growing up, I didn't look like
my friends at school.

Not having representation
of other brown people

made me feel like
I couldn't be loved.

And so the song makes me
want to believe in love.

It's really beautiful.

All:
* How deep is your love *

It was cool up until the end,
and then you kind of hear

where it starts to fall apart
as you guys come together

because you guys are used to
singing together, you're not.

So you guys have to really
make sure that you practice.

Let's just tighten that
arrangement right now

so that you feel
super comfortable.

All:
* We belong to you and me *

* Belong to you and me,
to and me *

Okay.
Make sure you do "to you"
up on the same note

then go down.
Okay. Perfect.

What is the last
"how deep is your love"?

All:
* How deep is your love *

Cool.

That was a lot better.
That was great.

And then if you guys
look at each other

during that part,
you know, you guys...

Yes, as a threesome.
As a threesome.

By that point,
it's a threesome.

John: With Parijita, her key
is going to be figuring out

how to fit in
with the other two,

because in this
Battle situation,

you've got to kind of
change your M.O.

just a little bit
and be a good team player.

Great to see you all.

And then I think,
with the Marilynds,

this will be right
on their home turf.

The Bee Gees were siblings
that sang together.

The Marilynds are siblings
that sing together.

So I think it's just
about execution for them.

You can tell the sisters
are so used to sitting together

and then it's hard for them
to incorporate a third.

Yeah, I'm like that,
though, because

I'm used to singing
by myself.

So when I'm thinking about
where I have to sing

with other people,
it's hard for me,

so I have to,
like, practice.
Yeah.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly:
Welcome back to "The Voice."

[ Cheers and applause ]

Yes!

Let's go!

This Battle begins right now.

**

* Ooh *

Oh, that's awesome.

* Oh, whoa *

* I know your eyes
in the morning sun *

* I feel you touch me
in the pouring rain *

Both: * And the moment that
you wander far from me *

* I wanna feel you
in my arms again *

* And you come to me
on a summer breeze *

* Keep me warm in your love
then you softly leave *

All: * And it's me
you need to show *

* How deep is your love *

* Is your love,
how deep is your love *

* I really
need to learn *

* 'Cause we're living
in a world of fools *

* Breaking us down *

* When they all
should let us be *

* We belong to you and me *

Both:
* I believe in you *

* You know the door
to my very soul *

* You're the light in
my deepest, darkest hour *

* You're my savior
when I fall *

* And you come to me
on a summer breeze *

Both: * Keep me warm in your
love then you softly leave *

All: * And it's me
you need to show *

* How deep is your love *

* How deep is your love,
how deep is your love *

* I really need to know *

Both: * 'Cause we're living
in a world of fools *

* Breaking us down *

* When they all
should let us be *

* We belong
to you and me *

All: * 'Cause we're living
in a world of fools *

* Breaking us down *
Whoo!

* When they all
should let us be *

* We belong to you and me *

* How deep is your l-o-o-o-ove *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Beautiful!

**

Yes! Yes, yes!

Blake: I'll start with
Kasey and Lindsay.

I've worked with some duos
on this show,

and there's always
one person

that's a little bit ahead
of the other one, you know?

And it just feels like
with you two,

it's just so locked in
together.

I mean,
you must be related.

[ Laughter ]

And then,
ladies and gentleman,

Parijita is 17 years.

My goodness.

[ Cheers and applause ]

That is insane.

Your voice is so unique
and so powerful.

I love the way
Parijita walks out here

with full confidence like,
"I'm here.

And I'm about to blow
your face off. Sorry."

[ Laughs ]
Yeah.

I love your presence,
and I love your voice.

And if I was deciding,

I'd be going with Parijita
in this one.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Thank you.

You guys were so tight
when you sang together.

It just sounded like somebody

was dripping a vanilla candle
into my ear.

Oh, my gosh.
Oh, I love that.

[ Laughs ]
Is that a nice feeling?

Yeah, that sounds
unpleasant.

Parijita,
you're such a master

of your voice
at such a young age.

It seems effortless,
and you have a gorgeous voice.

Thank you so much,
Camila.

Good luck, buddy!

They do dock your pay
if you don't say...

What?
I'm just kidding.

[ Laughter ]

Marilynds, I saw so much more
talent than I thought

the first time that I saw you
sitting up here in the blinds.

Your voices are so different
from each other.

I mean, you have a sharper
voice, hers is warmer,

and they blend really well
together in the harmonies.

Parijita, your personality
was coming out,

and it was
really beautiful.

It's so unique.

It reminds me a lot of a '70s
singer-songwriter voice,

and I love it.

Daly:
Thank you, Coaches!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Alright, John,
you got the final decision.

Give us some thoughts first.

One of the things
that I was worried about

was whether or not Parijita

would find a way to fit in
with the two of you.

And I really felt you all
found a way to connect

with each other as a trio.

Marilynds, you all just leaned
into those harmonies.

It was flawless.

The quality
of your execution today,

it was just
really, really strong.

Thank you.
Thank you, John.

Parijita, there's something
where you just feel like

you're connected
to who you are.

And it's just amazing that
that amount of self-awareness,

self-knowledge, self-possession
is coming from someone so young.

And your voice
is just phenomenal.

It just feels so inviting.

John, who is the winner
of this Battle?

**

This is gonna be
really hard for you.

I agree. It's hard.

You pick, Carson!
You pick!

[ Laughs ]

**

**

The winner of this battle
is Parijita.

Daly: Parijita!
Congratulations!

You're moving on
to the Knockouts!

Parijita was beloved by all
the coaches in the blinds,

and she showed us why.

Oh, my God.
Thank you.

Beautiful. Beautiful.

She has such a lovely tone

and so mature
and open and beautiful

and has such
a magical presence.

So I had to pick Parijita.

[ Laughs ] Hi!

[ Laughter ]

...Mom.

Coaches, I want to remind you
that the Marilynds

are available
to steal or save.

Anything you guys want to say
to your coach?

John, it's been a pleasure
to work with you.

Daly: Whoa!
That's the sound of a save!

[ Parijita shrieks ]

Daly:
They are back in business!

Whoa!

John: The Marilynds deserved
to be saved, and I think

they have something special
to offer this competition.

That was so great.
Thank you, John.

John:
They're a very compelling group.

And I think their lane
of country pop

is unique on my team.

I think they're going to do
something really special

as they go forward.

Oh, my God. I'm so excited
that we get to continue on.

I'm just --
I'm just thrilled.

So just --
just being able to --

How do you feel
about John Legend?

[ Laughter ]

John, we love you!
Just wanna squeeze him.

Welcome home.

I've seen bananas go
from green to yellow

in the amount of time
you took.

I took a long time. I was
indecisive that time.

Sorry. [ Laughs ]

Well, you need those bananas
to turn yellow, so...

That's right. That's right.
That's what I'm here for.

You're letting them
get ripe up there.
Yes.

You want them brown for your
banana bread, then let me know.

Blake: Oh, yeah.
[ Laughter ]
