22x18 - Live Top 13 Performances

Post by bunniefuu »

We are live with the top 13.

Give it up for our koecoaches.
The one and only john legend.

The lovely gwen stepstefani.
Camila cabello.

And blake shelton.
What a great crowd.

Welcome to the show.
I'm carson daly.

We're at universal studios
hollywood.

Our top 13 artists are going to
come out on the stage with

Really special songs that have
absolutely changed their lives.

They're doing to sing those
songs, they're also going to

Explain why.
We're looking forward to that.

Two artists are going to go
home.

Your votes clearly very
important.

Voting is open now for all of
the artists.

You can do that on tois official
app.

We're going to kick things off
with team gwen's 19-year-old pop

Singer and a song, a special
one, that brought him out of his

Shell.
Top 13 is crazy.

Being 19 and coming out of high
school, doing so well in the

Competition, I don't think high
school anybody would believe

This is something I was doing.
Hi.

I'm so proud of you.
So honored to be your coach.

I'm honored to be here.
Pretty exciting to be around

Such a creative person.
I could say the same.

To have at your age a clear
view of how you can see a song

And you make it yours, that's
really special.

My music teacher from my
school showed me stevie wonder.

Oh, really?
This is what I started off

Singing.
Superstition truly changed my

Life.
I wasn't comfortable being

Myself in high school until my
band teacher invited me to join

The jazz band.
Mr. Cooper is the definition of

What a teacher should be.
Someone who support you and

Shapes you along the way, and
bringing the song to "the voice

Stage" is different.
This is different from

Everything else I have done.
♪ Very superstitious

Writing's on the wall ♪
superstishzstition by stevie

Wonder, tall order.
That's kind of what he does.

You would never think this
19-year-old boy from florida

Would be singing a stevie wonder
song and do it justice, but I

Think america is going to see
that he has skills.

There's kind of these gaps so
you'll do a melody.

Then there's a space.
What are you going to do there?

Yeah.
Finding moments where you can

Be like, attitude.
And also fun.

Like, this song is just
euphoric.

Look like I'm having fun.
Yeah.

I saw people on twitter saying
you could win.

We're going for gold.
I'm literally on my phone

Texting people that I know, you
should see this guy.

Like, he just has so much
potential.

He's a star, already.
Not everyone has seen him yet.

Kique, team gwen.
Camila, what did you think?

Kique, miami boy
representing.

Represent, 305.
Gwen, you're right.

Stevie wonder is a tall order,
and I feel like you made it your

Own.
Every performance you just grow

More into that big, heavy voice
of yours.

I feel like you were having fun.
And I just love your voice.

I love that you challenge
yourself, and I agree.

I think you really do have
something so special.

You're a star, darling.
Thank you so much.

Gwen.
That was amazing.

Honestly, I was nervous, guys.
This was like what are we doing

Here?
But I loved how you came back to

The original but then you just
tweaked with your little

Personality, not little, but
your great, huge, amazing

Personality.
And made it your own.

And I just I'm so honored that I
get to be your coach and witness

That right now.
So congratulations.

You are a star and you're
incredible.

- Thank you so much.
- If you want kique in

App.
Give it up again for kique and

Team gwen.
Off to a great start.

When we come back, bryce sings a
country classic his coach calls

Sacred ground.
And later, they give it

And later, they give it
everything they have to move on

Songs that made a huge impact on
their lives.

Only ten move on tomorrow.
Voting is open now for all

Artists on all methods.
Let's continue with team blake's

Singer from georgia who was
instantly saved last week.

Tonight he returns to one of his
favorite country classics.

Here's more from
bryce leatherwood.

What a time that was.
It was one of the most hectic

Yet one of the most beautiful
moment of my life.

To complete the top 13, the
wild card artist is bryce

Leatherwood.
Man, that was nerve-racking.

Luckily, team blake is still
intact.

Yes, sir.
Here he comes walking in with

A little swagger.
My mom was so mad at me for

Putting you in the save deal.
Mom, he'll make it out of

There.
Calm down.

My mom may not speak to me
for a couple weeks because I put

Bryce in that situation.
I knew he would find a way to

Pull himself out of it and still
be on the show.

Here we are, songs that changed
my life.

You're doing amaru arillo mornin
george strait.

You have to bring it.
If you come at the king, you

Best not miss.
Let's do this.

♪ Amarillo by morning
up from san antone ♪

I cut me teeth with this
sa

Song, little tiny bars in my
hometown.

I remember people enjoying my
singing.

It spoke volumes to me.
This is a song that's been in my

Set list from day one and it
continues to be.

How long have you had the
band together?

Close to a year.
I kind of managed it in a

Sense, o booking conditions.
Using the business management

Degree the right way.
Even though being a musician can

Be a hard grind, I'm always
looking forward to the next big

Thing.
I want to make the top ten so

Bad, my goal is to go out there
and perform this song to the

Best of my ability and do the
king justice.

Man, I don't have one note
that's incredible.

It sounds perfect for you.
Don't make me cry.

George strait is sacred
ground for any country artist.

He knows how important this song
is to country music fans.

And I truly believe this is
going to be bryce's best

Performance he's had so far.
You're going to live to see

Another wyeek after this.
That song is so good.

You're going to make it way
beyond the top 13.

Beyond the top 13.
I hope so.

Trying to make it a top ten.
Nice night's work.

A proud coach standing up.
Let's go over to mr. Legend.

John.
Bryce, I'm no country expert,

As blake will remind you often.
But I have to say, it sounded so

Perfect and so natural.
A man named bryce leatherwood

Singing a george strait song,
and you just sounded like you're

Perfectly in your comfort zone.
You sounded so confident.

You look like a star up there.
Your voice sounded pure and

Beautiful.
Thank you, john.

Truly a perfect execution of
that song.

Very well done, bryce.
Thank you.

Blake?
I felt like this may be the

First time I ever felt like a
stage mom over here watching.

I was singing every word.
Here comes the modulation.

Smile.
Smile.

I mean, I was so into that.
He was doing the dance moves.

I was, I love george strait
and I love bryce.

And dude, let me tell you
something.

The position you were in last
week, I mean, who knows how it

Happens, but that how you fix
it, man.

That was a great, solid
performance.

Thank you, coach.
Thank you.

If you want bryce in
the top ten, you can vote on

Let's hear it for
bryce leatherwood.

Off to a solid start.
When we come back, devix lets

Loose on a big indie rock song.
And later, rowan and omar fight

For your votes and a chance to
carson: fired up tonight.

Welcome back.
Our top 13 all singing tonight.

Performances are going to
continue with team camila's

Pennsylvania indie pop singer
and a very special song that

Allows him to shine as an
artist.

Here's devix.
Cool, let's do it.

Hey, devix.
Been too long.

I'm feeling really excited to
hear your voice on this song.

This is are you mine.
How does this song change

Your life?
Growing up, I got to be a

Guitarist or instrumentalest.
But after the vocals picked up

For me, I wanted to play
something more intricate at the

Same time as singing.
This is the first time the

Devix we see on stage was born.
Kind of, yeah.

♪ I go crazy 'cause here
isn't where I wanna be ♪

Heesz f he's such an
important artist for the show.

He's so dedicated to his krcraft
in the same way that so many

Artists have been, like prince.
I am so excited america voted

Him through last week.
You have good taste.

I have been working on
getting out of my head.

It's so practical, filming
yourself in rehearsal.

Trying things and watching
yourself back.

I get caught up in the
perfectionism of performing.

I feel like we got certain parts
nailed down and now I get to

Work on stage presence and
physical energy and attitude.

Do we want to start really
creepy devix where it's like...

♪ I'm a puppet on a string ♪
♪ are you mine ♪

That's it, yep.
♪ I'm a puppet on a string

♪The song and the energygenre

Room to put the professionalism
on autopilot and have fun

Breaking loose on stage.
You have to do the devix

Thing where you add more range.
You can be like, are you mine.

For devix to get to the top ten,
he needs to keep showing who he

Is and keep showing his insane
musicianship and he's clearly

Meant to do this.
Big fan.

Thanks.

That is devix, ladies
and gentlemen.

Coach camila cabello.
Thank you for that, devix.

Thank you for bringing back rock
'n' roll on "the voice."

A sound and feel we missed for a
while.

That was super fun.
Let's go to gwen.

What did you think?
I love when she does that.

Devix, honestly, it's crazy
to see the rehearsal and then

See what it got to, because your
last performance, your voice is

Ridiculous.
It's perfect for alternative.

What's different about it for
alternative, r ative it's so goo

Your last performance, this is
like, you just... You grew so

Much.
It's incredible.

- Thank you so much.
- John?

Devix, I really think it's
all about the song.

I think it was the right song to
make the most of you who are as

A vocalist, and you felt like
you were comfortable, you were

Loose.
Your voice sounded incredible.

I love the rasp in your voice in
this performance.

I felt like I'm seeing new and
improved things from you.

But part of it I think is
picking the right song for who

You are as an artist and as a
voikalist.

It was really, really good.
Thank you so much.

Camila.
Devix.

Devix, you went superstar on
this one.

I mean, three.
I mean, not including me because

I'm your coach, but john and
gwen both stood up.

He's crazy, he should have stood
up.

But seriously.
Doesn't mean I don't love it.

Everybody was going crazy.
He's tired.

His legs hurt.
But america, like, everybody

Watching this show clearly has
great taste because they voted

Through the last round.
And I feel like you are... I

Feel like you're a finalist on
this season.

You are just amazing.
You're amazing.

I want to scream.
I want to scream.

If you want devix in
the top ten, you can vote on

One more time, give it up for
devix.

Straight ahead, ad row
sings a special song she's been

Performance since she was just 3
years old.

Years old.
And then omar and melissa do

13.
These are the songs that changed

Their lives.
We'll continue with the south

Dakota pop artist blake saved
last week.

Tonight she's singing a song
that started it all for her.

Here's more from rowan grace.
You want to move forward with

Rowan.
I made it to the top 13, and

The first thing I wanted to do
was call my two sisters.

I made it on to the next round.
Being a big sister means a lot

To me.
I love them so much.

And I just want to make them
proud.

You k*lled last nights.
People loved it.

My wife, you're her favorite on
my team.

Do you miss her?
Of course, I miss her, but I

Love you.
Okay, that's correct.

That's the correct answer.
So an abba song changed your

Life.
You have to explain this to me.

The first memory I have of
performing.

I was 3 years old in the living
room with my parent.

I would make them watch me and
film me.

They were annoyed but I think
they're okay with it now.

♪ I don't wanna talk
about things

We've gone through ♪
for the top 13, I'm singing

The winner takes it all by
abbah.

My journey started with this
song and with abba.

Where is that at in your
range?

I wonder if you can go further,
just because I lose you in the

Verse.
You say push more?

Yeah.
Why not, I'm on "the voice."

Got to go big, right?
I picked rowan for a lot of

Reasons.
Selfishly, I love working with

The kid.
I love being able to keep my

Team diverse, and I believe she
deserves to make it to the top

Ten.
You never take the easy way out,

Do you?
No.

That's really good, rowan.
Thanks, blake.

Rowan is only 17, but she
keeps picking iconic artists and

Songs that she loves.
She's amazing.

Coming from south dakota, I'm
in like hollywood, what's going

On?
You have to have the whole

State pumped.
They're pumped.

I love it.
I'm happy for you, buddy.

I'm happy for you, buddy.
Thank you, blake.

team gwen, now with team blake.

Great job.
Thank you, carson.

You're very welcome.
John, what did you think?

I find your voice so cool and
interesting because I love the

Softer parts of it.
It sounds really like graceful

And supple and like you're able
to do those little subtle things

With your voice that are really
cool and reflect a lot of

Maturity that it's crazy that
you have at age 17.

And then when you have to go for
those big notes, it sounds so

Easy.
It's like, it just sounds like

You're so comfortable and
powerful as a vocalist.

It's really impressive, rowan.
I love watching your sing.

You're really great.
Thank you so much.

Let's talk to the
man.

Blake.
First off, we have to talk

About those home movies they
were showing up there.

It's no wonder why you're so
relaxed.

I mean, you have been performing
literally since it looks like

You could walk.
I have.

I have to say, I don't know
what's more impressive is your

Unique sound, which is like a
blend of like your chest voice

And your head voice.
I don't even know how you do

That.
It's so cool, your tone.

Or just your depth of knowledge
of these old cool songs that are

Classics.
And the way you attack them when

You're performing.
It's so good.

That's why people love you.
That's why I love you.

"The voice" official app.
Give it up again for rowan

Grace.
Coming up, back to back

Performances.
Omar shows his vulnerability on

A huge chart topping song.
Later, alyssa takes on selena.

Live music tonight as the top 13
are all going here.

Live on the show.
We're also showing big songs

That have made an impact on the
lives of our artists.

We have a couple performances
back-to-back we're going to tart

With a song that put him on a
much better path.

Here's more from omar jose
cardona.

Omar.
Hey.

Great to see you.
What's up, john?

You're in the top 13, buddy.
Omar jose cardona.

You earned it.
Thank you.

Well done.
Now, you know, america is

Deciding.
How does it teal?

John, even people I didn't
think liked me...

They like you now.
They like me now.

Another week where you get to
pick your own song.

Talk about what it means to you.
A few years ago, I was headed

Down a really dark path.
I was partying a lot.

During that time, I was pushing
everybody away.

I heard this song and it talks
about asking for help and

Relying on other people.
Thank god this moment happened

For me, because who knows where
I would be.

I definitely wouldn't be here
right now.

♪ If I told you
this was only gonna hurt ♪

♪ If I warned you
that the fire's

Gonna burn ♪
I remember seeing a photo of

Myself.
I was very skinny.

I was pale.
My eyes were lifeless, and I

Didn't even recognize who I was.
♪ When there's no one by your

Side ♪
I realized that, you know, if

I don't change now, I'm never
going to make it to where I want

To be.
This song has without a doubt

Changed my life.
I want to find places to

Inject a little more emotion.
Maybe at the end, do ab-libs.

John, you sing.
Take it to church a little

Bit.
I want them to fall in love with

You.
Let people feel your passion.

Omar picked the perfect song.
It allows him to be a little

More vulnerable, a little more
spiritual this time.

I think people will really feel
that, and I think it's what he

Wants to be as an artist.
Going to be incredible.

Thank you, brother.
I'll see you soon.

That is omar jose
cardona.

The room standing on their feet
after that top 13 performance.

What an incredible job, man.
Wow.

Insane power right there.
Had the room totally lit up.

And electrified.
That had like finale vibes,

Camila.
My favorite part of that

Performance, omar, was seeing
that emotion, that rawness in

Your face.
You know, it's like from the

Beginning, from your blind
audition, we all knew that you

Have one... You're one of the
most skillful singers in this

Whole season, but I think this
was something I was really

Waiting on from you, that
vulnerability, that messiness,

That just humanity.
You know what I mean?

Not the perfection, just the
rawness of it.

That was my favorite part, was
when your face just broke down

And you saw you're reliving that
part of your life.

I think it was really brave of
you to share that with all of us

Tonight.
Thank you.

John.
I love that word she used,

The humanity of your
performance.

And the thing is, your voice is
so other worldly that we forget

You're human sometimes.
And truly.

And what I wanted people to feel
was your heart today.

And we talked about that in
rehearsal.

And oh, my god.
Omar, this just unlocked another

Level.
It's like you're such a great

Singer already.
And we felt you as a person, and

It was beautiful.
It was magical.

It was powerful.
Amazing performance.

If you want omar in
the top ten, you can vote on

Give it up for omar jose
cardona.

We're going to continue with
another performance right away

Here with team gwen's
alternative pop singer from

California, and a hit that
helped her become the passionate

Singer she is today.
Here's more from alyssa.

I'm going to go with alyssa.
I'm feeling really happy

Right now because I didn't think
that wads going to happen, and

I'm really appreciative.
Team gwen.

Put it back.
Yep.

You got it.
Professional.

Gwen is like a motherly
figure to me.

And because she saved me, I want
to step my game up a little

More.
Tell me about this song.

A little sad.
It's a little sad?

It makes me cry.
♪ Late at night

When all the world
is sleeping ♪

Years back, my grandfather
had passed away.

I remember just listening to
this song and like feeling that

Emotion that selena brought, and
it brought me to tears.

I was like wow, I really miss
him.

So with being a young singer, it
sought me how to bring emotion

Into singing.
It changed my life in that way.

What I want to come out in this
next performance is alyssa.

Who are you?
Yeah, I need to be able to

Read your facial cues.
I'm still like, for example,

Each part of the song needs to
be thought out.

If I were doing it, I would
be like...

♪ Late at night when all the
world is sleeping ♪

You're in your head.
You're dreaming.

I want to be able to see
you're dreaming on your face.

Do it extreme, as if you were in
a play.

Then we can always cut away what
we don't like.

Mother helping me, she's
like, here, here.

I'm like okay, okay.
Put it in my brain.

Yes.
With alyssa, I completely

Believe in her.
She has so much raw talent.

Yes!
I can't wait to see her blossom.

What the... That was like a
different person.

Really?
Yes.

It's in the hands of america.
I can't save her anymore, so she

Has to bring it.
Alyssa definitely has something

Special.

That's alyssa witrado trying to

Move on.
All right, camila, give her some

Thoughts.
Hey, alyssa.

Hi, camila.
Well, first of all, thank you

For sharing that beautiful story
with us about your grandpa.

I think that's really beautiful
that you chose this song for

Him.
And I think that, you know, my

Favorite part about you is like,
I feel like your energy, like

You're so charismatic and you
have this personality that

Overflows into all of your
performance.

Singing wise, I think you have
more learning and skills to

Learn, but I think you're so
young, that's going to happen.

But I think that you're just
so... Like your energy is so

Contagious.
I have to stop talking because

We're on live tv, but I love
you.

Coach gwen.
Hi, alyssa.

That was really, really good.
I agree with camila so much.

I think the whole reason that we
have gotten this far is just

Your spirit and just there's
something about you.

It's hard to even put into
words.

But you make me smile every
single time I see you.

I think that your singing was
beautiful tonight.

And I think that what people
don't understand is sometimes a

Voice like yours is so... It has
so many sides to it, it's hard

On leive tv, but I think it was
gorgeous, beautiful.

I got to hear all those sides
and I'm really proud of you.

If you want alyssa in
the top ten, you can vote on

And we're back with
the top 13 all singing songs

That changed their lives.
Three artists go home tomorrow.

Let's get back to our
performances with team blake's

California soul artist.
He's putting his unique spin on

A very personal song.
Here's more from bodie.

Getting in the top 13
rehearsals with blake.

So excited.
To know america voted me into

The top 13, I'm so honored and
blown away.

Get over here.
What up.

People seem to like you,
bodie.

My sister is one of them.
Your sister likes me?

She cried watching your
performance, and she's cold and

Jaded and callous.
I broke through.

That's an accomplishment.
So, what is going on with

This song?
The song impacted me.

I'm excited I get to sing it.
I'm singing I'm going to be 500

Miles by the proclaimers.
The original version is very

Upbeat, but I wanted to make it
more emotional.

Where do you want to start?
I thought it would be cool in

The start of the song.
♪ When I wake up

Well I know I'm gonna be ♪
like that.

Do you want guitar or piano?
Try piano.

Once again, bodie's taken a
song that we all know and he's

Bodieizing it.
I mean he's made me allook at

These lyrics in a way I never
have before.

This was my wife and I's
wedding song.

I can see it vividly in my mind.
My wife walking down the aisle

Like an angel.
I don't get emotional often, but

This song changed my life.
Singing this song reminds me of

Who I want to be as a husband.
The song and how that really

Is our life.
You make me cry.

Can't wait to sing it for
you.

I'll be crying in the
audience.

I'll be crying onstage.
You almost don't realize what

Song that is until you get to
the chorus.

Bodie is a visionary.
That's what makes him the most

Unique artist I have ever worked
with.

You sing the hell out of it.
Thank you guys for putting up

With my half baked ideas.

You're so talented.

Access to your heart.
It's so real.

I believe you so much.
I can't believe you're not like

A huge star yet.
Like, let's go, guys.

Blake.
Hey, bodie, I mean, sometimes

In music, an artist comes along
that's so different and

Brilliant that people miss it.
Maybe it's over their head.

Maybe the timing is wrong.
But then sometimes it happens

Like it's happening I think
right now for you.

People get it.
They're connecting with it, and

It's exactly what we all need
right now.

Dude, this is your moment.
Congratulations.

When we come back, kim takes on
willie nelson.

Later, brayden and eric fight
for your votes and a chance to

We're back live with
the top 13.

Three go home tomorrow.
Next, two legends, texas

Powerhouse and an unexpected
choice that was inspired by a

Special person.
Here's more from kim cruse.

Moy choice is kim.
I'm super grateful to john

For using his last save of the
season on me.

Top 13.
Team legend, let's get it, baby.

Kim cruse.
Hey.

So excited you're back.
I saved kim last week for

Obvious reasons.
But she has something to prove.

You have to show america that
you deserve to go to the next

Round.
And I'm confident that you're

Going to show that.
This round, it's songs that have

Changed your life.
Yes.

♪ Maybe I didn't love you
this round, I am branching

Out, singing a country song.
I don't think people will expect

This, but being from a small
town in texas, I have always

Loved country music.
It wasn't until my grammy passed

In 2017 that this song really
developed a new meaning for me.

It just made me realize in that
moment how important it is to

Let the people that mean the
most to you know how much they

Mean to you because when they're
gone, there's nothing else you

Can do but wish.
My grammy's old apartment.

She was always one of my biggest
supporters, and this is the

Moment that I think she always
saw for me.

If I could do anything to have
her witness what's happening in

My life, I would.
I lost my grandmother last

Year.
So I feel the heartache every

Time I hear your note flutter.
The key will be making sure it

Still feels like it's connected
to the original in some way.

Stick pretty close to the melody
and let tone do the

Storytelling.
She picked the softest most

Vulnerable song she could do,
and I think it's actually a

Really smart, effective choice.
She's shown us the soulful songs

That make you stomp your feet,
but this is a soulful song

That's going to make you cry.
Yes, do it like that.

I think america will see a
different side of you, which I

Think is powerful.
That's what I hope.

Yes.

Nice work, kim.
That was beautiful.

Blake, let's get some thoughts
from you first, please.

I'm pretty sure they heard
that up in the heavens.

They hear it every time you
sing.

Your voice, you know, that song,
elvis did that too.

So I hear some elvis in there
when you sing it, too, along

With willie.
The truth is when you sing it,

It just becomes kim.
That was beautiful.

It was incredible.
Unbelievable.

- Congratulations.
- Coach john.

Kim, I love seeing you going
back to your grandmother's house

And remembering her and
dedicating this song to her.

Like I said, I just lost mire
grandmother probably around the

Same time you lost yours.
I was so emotional just

Listening to you and thinking
about her, thinking about all

The loved ones we lost and what
we need to do to make sure we

Tell them we love them when we
have them.

That was so beautiful, so
soulful.

You made it your own.
And you honored the original

Song so beautifully.
It was really gorgeous.

If you want kim in
the top ten, you can vote on

Give it up for kim cruse, ladies
and gentlemen.

Thank you, kim.
Coming up, brayden takes on a

Our big performances continue
with the youngest in the

Competition, and the iconic
country song that made him fall

In love with singing.
Here's more from 16-year-old

Brayden lape.
Somebody is going to be

Working late tonight, because
all four of my contestants made

It through.
We're still the only team

With four people.
The four of you guys running

Out, hugging each other.
Knowing you're all still

Together as one big family is
pretty cool.

You think this is the right
height?

I'm going to be singing sam
hunt's version of come over by

Kenny chesney.
Sam hunt is a little bit of what

I want to be, a country pop
artist.

The first song I sang in front
of people was a sam hunt song.

My dad had been talking to a
band playing at this bar.

They let me go up, I think I was
14.

I was so nervous.
I got up on the mic and I

Started singing.
That day changed my life.

It made me fall in love with
performing.

And it led me to where I am
today.

First three or four times I
ever heard this song, I thought

He was singing comb over.
Brayden has this innocence about

Him.
Am I supposed to put these

Things in?
You can't help but root for

This kid because you can tell
music is new to him.

You're never going to make it in
the business if you can't figure

Out how to use a mic stand.
He's so naturally gifted at

Performance.
I have a song in a similar vein

Called sangria.
When I listen to the record,

It's like, that song sounds so
laid back.

When I perform it, I don't feel
that way at all.

Don't get too laid back.
Brayden is showing he's a star,

And this week is going to be
another incredible performance.

The journey has been awesome.
I'm glad I got to meet all the

Cast and crew and you and gwen
and camila and john.

It's awesome.
People responded to you, man.

Nobody else?
And that's it.

Really good work.

Hi, brayden.
Wow.

You know what, you're just
something about you, like, you

Don't really have to do much.
And that's rare, honestly, you

Just be you, and I want you to
remember that about yourself,

Because you're 16, and you're
just going to get to know

Yourself better.
I think that what you do is just

Be so pure and that's what
people love about you.

And not the fact that you're
gorgeous and tall and have a

Good voice, but all those
things.

- Thank you so much.
- Blake.

Trust me...
Tell him how gorgeous and

Tall he is.
Other people on the panel

Really like you, too, just so
you know.

I have to tell you.
You have that thing.

She's right.
But I want to talk to you about

Your voice, man.
You have a solid country voice

That's different, and it's
unique.

And you have a future in country
music.

Yes.
Not to mention how far you're

Going to go opthis show.
No wonder people love you.

You have it all, man.

Eric who will play elvis.

Top 13 live show.
We have another back-to-back

Performance for you now.
We're going to begin with team

Camila's pop singer from south
car

Carolina.
Tonight he's showing a softer,

More sensitive side with an
iconic love song.

Here's more from eric who.
Top 13 rehearsals.

Let's go.
Last week, I saved eric, and

I saved him because he puts on
such a great show.

That kind of showmanship to me
is somebody that I feel like can

Triumph in the industry.
It's so special.

I'm so excited.
It really changed my life.

It's like the perfect love song.
And what I'm trying to do is

Show america vocally, this kid
should be on "the voice."

I like this be the
vulnerability of eric who.

Yes, perfectly said.
♪ Wise men say ♪

This song showed me the power
of music and songwriting.

When I first heard the song, I
was always envious of the

Lyrics.
I never thought I would love

Somebody in a romantic way,
which is a sad thing, but that's

Where I was, and then I found my
first love.

I sing the song differently now
because I understand it.

I'm hoping my performance of the
song impacts the viewers how it

Song impacted me.
I want america to fall in love

With me and vote, too, honey.
Eric, this is such a smart

Choice.
Is it possible for it to be,

Like, him on a stool,
countrifying it a little bit

With like background vocals
holding the melody down?

Smart woman you are.
I no longer have a save, so

Eric has got to win over
america, and I think that this

Is the way to do it.
Mother.

Hey, boo.
I had this crazy idea to kind

Of change my hair for this
performance and go back to

Natural black hair eric.
Be on stage, maybe hoodie and

Jeans.
Back to basics.

I could just stand here and bare
my soul to you guys.

I'm going to do it.
I'm scared but I'm going to do

It, honey.
Going to be so good.

It's going to be one of my
favorites of yours because it's

So heartfelt.
Thank you for everything.

Love you so much.

Eric, great job.
John, some thoughts please.

Well, what an unexpected song
choice for you.

I feel like it's very cool and
very vulnerable of you to pick

Something like this because you
have shown us so much

Fabulousness and you have been
dancing.

And I think it was a really cool
choice to go understated this

Time because you're showing a
different side.

I think it's just giving america
a chance to know all of who you

Are.
I think thatcamila.

You know what, guys.
Eric who is one of the most if

Not the most dynamic performers
on the season.

The fact that in all of his
performances he has been running

Around, costume change, you
know, bouncing from corner of

The stage to corner of the
stage.

This time for you to strip it
all back, just you, your voice,

Just sitting down on a stool and
baring your soul and you know,

song and also literally telling

Your story through the package
we just saw.

Here's more from morgan myles.
Team camila.

Here we go.
Here we go.

It's so amazing to be in the
top 13.

Sometimes you're like, should I
be doing this still?

So "the voice" has helped make
me feel like I can do this.

I like that you called me the
truth teller.

That's like your new twitter
bio.

I am the truth teller.
I like that.

That's why people like you,
because you're so genuine.

Tell me why you chose this song?
This song resonates with me

Because I lived it.
I'm going to sing if I were a

Boy by beyonce.
Country music, it is more male

Dominated.
And there were days that I

Remember crying to myself,
saying if I were a boy, maybe I

Would have had a better chance.
I remember being really defeated

And reba mcentire covered this
song.

Reba, did you watch morgan's
blind audition?

I did.
You did really good.

I'm so proud of you.
Reba is this pioneer for

Females, and I had the honor of
being on the reba tour.

And she starts playing this
song.

It just completely moved me.

Again?
Really can't be defined by a

Genre.
Awesome to hear the full

Drums for dramatic effect.
Made up of country and pop

And soul and one thing that I

That she's being herself.

Let's get some comments.
Let's start with gwen.

Hi, morgan.
I'm so happy for you right now.

I feel like you picked the
perfect song to kind of define

You as an artist.
I mean, we talk so much about

That.
Or you have in your story, of

Like who I am, where do I fit
in?

I think that was not only a
great balance.

Your vocals were absolutely
ridiculous, but also your stage

Performance and everything you
did tonight was like, it all

Came together.
I'm just excited for you.

So sweet.
You look so beautiful tonight.

Camila.
You got four coaches standing

Up for you tonight.
I feel like...

Thank you.
Thank you so much.

I feel like I had the same
feeling in the room as morgan

From the blind auditions.
It was the song and your story.

You're inspiring so many young
women, too, that are watching

This right now with your story,
and you know what, in america,

You keep doing this, and that's
why you're here.

Here's more from
parijita bastola.

Hey, john.
How are you?

You're so stellar on your
monday.

Thank you.
It was like the best you have

Done so far.
And it was very special.

I really saw parijita elevate
herself in my mind and I think

In the audience's mind this past
week and she really tapped into

It in a way I have never seen
her do.

This is a very cool week.
Songs that changed your life.

I picked all I ask by adele.
I love the idea of you

Singing adele.
♪ I won't say a word ♪

The first time I sang this
song, it was a youth

Competition, and I translated
the chorus and I performed it in

Nepaly and english and I won
first place.

Last year, the winner of "the
voice" of nepal came to maryland

And did a show, so they asked me
to open up for him.

I did the same song.
This is a perfect song for

You to sing here.
It's the first time I

Incorporated that culture in my
music.

I think that moment was really
important.

That was my shift into like who
I wanted to become as a singer.

I'm really proud to be able to
represent my nepalese culture on

National television.
I love that.

Picking an adele song is always
a challenge because adele is one

Of our great voices in paulural
music, but I believe parijita is

Up to the challenge.
I'm seeing her growth, I'm

Seeing her lock in and seeing
her elevate herself to a whole

New level.
Focus on being present.

Giving emotion, and just be in
it, like your eyes, everything.

I need to be so good that
adele sees it.

I feel like artists notice
these things more than people

Think they do.
If adele would see this, I

Would die.
I would die, I think.

Hi.
Careful.

Your superfan is here, me.
How are you doing?

I'm so good, after last
night.

And you, you are incredible.
Thank you so much.

I think the thing that people
loved so much on the show is

Watching someone grow, and you
have become like a babe, like

Before our eyes.
Like, you look like a star to me

Now.
You know what I'm saying?

Yeah, yeah.
I can't wait to hear this

Song.
I chose break every chain

Because it has a lot of, like,
deeper meaning with me.

Because I went through this
depression.

This song came into my life at
one of the darkest moments in my

Life.
When the lyric came on, there is

Power in the name of jesus to
break every chain, I literally

Felt the chains that had been
holding me in depression begin

To fall off, and I got help.
And so I'm no longer looking at

Myself like I don't deserve it.
Now, I am in the top 13.

So this song literally changed
the trajectory of my life.

Wow.
You're amazing.

Thank you so much.
But I think you need to be

Very clear with the intention of
what you're saying.

I think you can get really
physical, you know what I mean?

I want you to cry.
Okay.

I want you to look up.
I want you to sing to god.

♪ Break every chain ♪
I'm always trying to push him

To be more justin, because his
singing ability is masterful.

Yes, I love the end when you're
down.

But I think you can go further.
I mean, go look up a punk band

Or something.
Like break every chain!

Come on.
This is it.

Yeah.
This is your moment.

I'm going to do it.
I'm so excited for you.

Oh, my god, I'm excited.

Justin.
I gotta tell justin a quick

Story.
I was at the latin grammys this

Past week and met a brother from
your hometown in kansas.

All he could say to me is why
didn't you turn for justin.

And he was absolutely right.
Why didn't I turn for justin?

more of who you are and your

Ability.
