Welcome to "The Voice," the live shows.
I'm Carson Daly, and these are
your coaches... Adam Levine,
Cee Lo green, the one and only
Christina Aguilera and Blake Shelton!
Tonight, it's team Cee Lo and
team Adam are in the hot seat.
As they perform live for your votes.
And the bar has been set high after we
saw expl*sive performances
by Blake and Christina's teams. Take a look.
Last week "The Voice" went live.
The members of team Blake and team
Christina sang their hearts out for America
giving the other coaches a glimpse
of what they're up against.
Here's the duet you've got to beat.
Millions of viewers voted which three
artists from each team was safe.
Erin Willett.
Jermaine Paul.
Leaving the bottom three singing for the
retaining spot on their coaches' team.
In the end, each coach had to
make an emotional choice
of which one artist to save.
I've got to go with Jordis.
Ashley.
Cee Lo will be showcasing big
voices and big personalities.
Somebody on my team will win season two.
Get out of yourself.
While Adam is bringing a mix
of voice and experience.
They'll train their artist for
a career-making performance.
America will decide who stays in
the competition and who goes home.
Live shows are like sending
your kids to college.
Only one artist can win it all.
A recording contract from
Universal Public Record
and chance to become music's next big star.
The live shows begin right
now on "The Voice!"
Once again, you have the power
to vote and save
your favorite artist from going home.
Call the artist toll-free 866
number or logging on to nbc.com
or on The Voice Facebook page.
Voting opens at the end of the
show and closes tomorrow morning.
Adam, let's start with you.
Your team is going on tonight.
What did you tell them about
what they saw last week?
I think it was evident we had
our work cut out for us because
I even said to them and the
audience, check this out.
This is the competition.
That's all we can ever hope for.
I'm happy.
Cee Lo, you're arguably one of the
best live performers in the world.
Is that added pressure for your
team because you're so good?
I don't think so.
If anything, I'm trying to
encourage their own individuality.
I don't think we compare.
It's a continuation of the same
spirit and aspiration to
be the best you can be.
We look forward to seeing them tonight.
In the room, team Blake and team
Christina in the audience tonight.
Give them a round of applause.
They're right over there.
Great job last week.
Christina, how do you feel about
your decisions last week?
I feel absolutely confident and
so relaxed right now that I
have my team behind me.
They're going to be hard to beat.
Tonight I just can't wait to
sit back and be entertained.
So I'm really looking forward to it.
Blake, what would you tell
Cee Lo or Adam tonight being
a coach watching their teams?
I don't know.
Thanks for dressing up tonight.
I appreciate it.
You like that?
This is how little of a crap
I feel about y'all's teams.
That's what I'm wearing.
It's the same color as crap.
You know you didn't.
Oh, no you didn't.
Thank you, fellows.
We've got a big show tonight,
so let's get to it.
First up, from team Adam, it's
the 34-year-old singer
right here in Los Angeles hoping to leave her
insurance job behind, Katrina Parker.
Getting invited to the blind
auditions was amazing.
I wasn't able to sing for a couple
of years due to an illness.
What better way to make a
comeback than "The Voice?"
Different.
I loved that about you.
In the battle round they
talked about confidence.
You may make a mistake.
Who cares?
Katrina, you have a lot
of command and presence.
Let's talk about this tune.
Katrina is doing a great song
called "Tonight Tonight."
She's going to surprise everybody.
Stop one second.
I think you have to be Katrina.
Adam gets to the heart of
the matter immediately.
I need to try to find my voice.
I feel like I should simplify for sure.
The more you deliver it, that's how
you prevailed in the battle round.
I'm doing a song that could
not be more applicable about
this moment where everything,
like, comes together.
I don't want to be in the cubicle any more.
I want to be on the stage.
Singing "Tonight Tonight,"
here is Katrina Parker!
At all, you can never ever
leave, without leaving
forever changed, we will never
be the same the more you change
believe believe in me
you're not stuck in vain we're not the same
tonight so bright tonight
believe in me believe
insincere tonight, tonight we'll
make things right we'll feel it all
'cause I believe in you tonight
That is Katrina Parker
Team Adam.
Great job and you look beautiful.
Thank you.
You look great in your
insurance office cubicle,
but you look great on the stage too.
Christina, your thoughts on Katrina?
First I was wondering what
your connection would be with
this song because I thought
it was an interesting choice.
You definitely, your voice
immediately captivated me.
You have a gorgeous voice.
I heard it from day one.
I wanted you to rock out more
with it in the bigger dramatic,
more, you know, moments.
I feel like your dress
restricted you a little bit.
There were a few notes, but
overall you did a great job.
Thank you.
Cee Lo.
I thought it was a commendable effort.
I love the staging.
Of course, you have a wonderful
voice, but there is something so
genuinely, um, tortured about
Billy Corrigan's voice.
I don't believe this song
was meant to be performed.
It should always remain
something cathartic.
That's my only constructive criticism.
Otherwise a great performance.
I disagree.
Adam, how do you think she did?
I do agree we love this song.
There is a connection to it that Billy
Corrigan makes that's tough to beat.
When I first heard the song,
when I first heard you singing
the song I thought, wow, it's
actually almost big than a rock
song, it feels theatrical.
Forget about all that.
I'm really happy with you.
What you did, what you did was
really, you listened to me,
which I really appreciate.
You sang that song.
You're woman with a beautiful
voice and there were no frills.
You might have gone too far
in the direction of no frills
because you have a lot of strength
and energy I want to see from you.
Overall, you k*lled it.
Thank you.
There you go.

One more time, Katrina Parker, everybody!
Still to come, team Cee Lo's first
artist to take the stage, Cheesa.
We'll be right back.
Welcome back to "The
Voice, the live shows."
So far we've seen one member
of team Adam perform.
Now it's time for Cee Lo's first artist.
The 21-year-old power
vocalist from Hawaii, Cheesa.
I'm from a little town in Hawaii.
My whole family moved out here to L.A.
and gave up everything
so I could pursue music.
My auditions, I thought no one
would turn around for me.
At the end, Cee Lo turned around.
It was awesome.
Jesse pushed me to my limit.
The winner is Cheesa.
I want to show Cee Lo he made
the right choice for me.
Wanted to talk about you baby on Twitter.
I was pissed.
People were talking about Cheesa
should have been sent home.
You are definitely a powerful vocalist.
I need to hear that.
She is hear because she is talented.
This week I'm singing "Don't leave
me this way" by Thelma Houston.
Do you like it?
I do.
You're like an original.
You're incomparable on my team.
I'm ready to just prove my place here.
Performing "Don't leave me
this way," here's Cheesa!
Mmmmm mmmmm
I can't survive I can't stay alive
baby my heart is full of
love and desire for you
you started this fire down in my soul
come on satisfy the need
in me 'cause only your
set me free
don't you understand I'm at your command
of love and desire for you
now come on and do what
need in me 'cause only your good lovin' can
set me free
come satisfy me oh, baby
that is Cheesa, everybody!
Team Cee Lo.
Let's talk to our coaches.
Blake first.
Actually, I loved that.
That was like watching solid gold.
I thought that was like watching
- That was really good.
That was the perfect song.
That had Cee Lo written all over it.
It was dramatic.
It was awesome.
Thank you, Blake.
Adam, your thoughts.
That was... that did have
Cee Lo written all over it.
That was cool.
I love your showmanship.
I'm talking to you.
I love when you do that, man.
It was a great performance.
I think the only problem is there
are so many great singers.
You're a great singer.
The competition is crazy.
I think that's the only thing
I'm thinking is what's going to
make it so distinct and pop
so much we all freak out.
I'm not sure that happened.
It was a great performance
and did you a great job.
Thank you.
Let's hear from your coach Cee Lo.
Cheesa, baby, I completely
disagree with Adam.
I thought that it was wonderful.
I thought you did a great job.
I think, I think there is an era
where you can have a fusion of
that power lead vocal and
dance and excitement.
Know what I'm saying?
And energy.
So I believe, I believe
that that was a success.
I think it was a successful
blend, a successful song mesh
for you and your voice.
Staging was great, colors were wonderful.
It was electrifying.
I enjoyed it.

Up next, the ball is back
in team Adam's court with a
performance from Tony Lucca!
This is "The Voice," live.
We'll be right back!
Welcome back to "The
Voice"... the live shows!
Before we hear another
performance, let's check in with
Christina and see what's
happening in the sprint lounge.
Hanging out with my boy Jamar.
I saw your dress performance earlier.
You k*lled them.
What do you have to say?
First of all, you look amazing.
Second of all, I don't
have fans, I have family.
I don't want anyone idolising me
because we're all in this together.
I had dreams.
I implore you and beg you, if
you're having a bad day and
going through something you
feel is hopeless, live again.
Run again.
I reflect that.
I reflect a second chance.
That's that.
I love that.
Thank you for the love.
The artists are tweeting, coaches
are tweeting, tweet with
us using hash tag the voice.
It's time for team Adam's second artist.
He's the 35-year-old former
mouseketeer and rock vocalist
from Michigan... Tony Lucca.
I had the chance to work with
Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears.
They went on to pursue pop stardom.
I picked up my guitar and
decided to play smaller clubs.
In the blind audition, I
gave everything he have.
For the love of God, pick me.
Adam.
That round was the biggest
night for my family.
I have to go with Tony.
I'm closer to what's
been my life-long dream.
Tony Lucca is doing "In
your eyes," Peter Gabriel.
Your falsetto is too breathy.
It's never been my strong suit.
That's the hurdle.
That's the work I have to put on this.
If you can work out that one
thing, this is going to be one
of my favorite moments to watch.
Singing "In your eyes," here's Tony Lucca!
I get so lost sometimes
my heart when I want to run away
I come back to the place
you are, 'cause all my
so soon will burn without a noise
inside in your eyes
in your eyes I am complete
in your eyes to a thousand churches
in your eyes of all my fruitless
and the heat in your eyes
complete, in your eyes I want to
touch the light the heat I see
Lucca!
Let's chat with the coaches.
First, Christina.
Hi, Tony.
Hello.
Um, obviously we go back.
I thought that was, you
know, a good performance.
I just find you to be very one-dimensional.
That's only my opinion.
I would love to see if you make
it past this point where you
would grow from this stage just
because I'm wondering about
versatility with you and where
you would grow from here.
And hopefully, you know, obviously
we get a lot of support.
You have me and your old
musketeer buddies behind you.
I hope this is really a contest.
I hope this is really a
contest about the voice.
I think there are better voices
on the show rather than a
celebrity sway kind of thing.
All right.
Let's go right to Adam.
That was honest.
Honesty's good.
I want to be honest.
Honesty's good.
I think that song, for me, we
talked about it, is one of my
favorite songs ever.
It really touches me.
Of course, it's a very delicate thing.
You had the falsetto thing.
That was a demon we had to tackle.
You worked your way around it which
made me really proud, number one.
You sang a song that is
almost impossible to beat.
Peter Gabriel is unbelievable.
I gave you a huge challenge.
You made me feel good and I'm so
proud and so happy the way this
room felt in the three minutes.
Thank you, all.

One more time, Tony Lucca!
Coming up from team Cee Lo,
it's Kim Yarbrough.
This is "The Voice"... live on NBC!
Welcome back to "The
Voice"... the live shows!
Don't forget to tune in tomorrow night.
We'll find out the results of
your vote, plus an emotional
night of intention
last-chance performances.
Let's keep it rolling.
From team Adam, the better from
right here in L.A., Kim Yarbrough.
I started singing when I was 18.
Was a struggling artist.
I did security and I had to
work at a potato chip factory.
I think I'm going to go with Adam.
Without a shadow of a doubt,
I picked the right coach.
The strong is fit for a woman to sing.
I do have a lot of experience and I
was able to use that to my advantage.
Going into the live rounds, I
can be accepted for what I do.
I walked into rehearsal and we really
didn't know what I was going to sing.
What do you want to do?
I really like "Rolling
in the deep" by Adele.
I can absolutely relate
to the pain and song.
I'm a bad coach for not
thinking about it earlier.
There is definitely a potential
for that to be a mega moment.
You've got to hit that, like, on the money.
It's got to be better.
Kim Yarbrough doesn't
go out looking stupid.
I'm going to sing like it's the
last time I'm going to draw breath.
Singing "Rolling in the deep"
here's Kim Yarbrough.
burning in my heart reaching a fever pitch
finally I can see you crystal clear
Give it up for
Kim Yarbrough!
Coaches, let's hear your thoughts
about Kim Yarbrough up there.
Blake, let's start with you.
I definitely think the song
got better as it went along.
The first chorus seemed like she
hit it sharp on the first big
note, but the second chorus was great.
You're such a powerful singer,
that might be why it tends to go
sharp sometimes because
it's so easy for you.
I don't know.
It was good.
It was good.
Cee Lo, let's go over to you.
First, let me commend
Adam as a coach for allowing you
to do what you wanted to do.
This is such a current song.
The comparisons are too close.
I don't know if I just, I don't
know if I loved it, but I do
love you, you know.
Thank you.
I love you, too.
Let's hear with your coach thought.
I love you too, Kim.
I want you to stay motivated.
We love you.
You're an unbelievable singer.
But, you know, I would be remiss if I
didn't say there were some problems.
I was scared about... Adele,
she's a freak, man.
She is so good.
It's hard... I know you're
a freak, too, Cee Lo.
This sounds negative, but
really, I don't disagree with
all the things that were said.
I think there were some
issues I was worried about.
For the most part it was fantastic.
I think the right song with you,
should you advance, which I hope
that you do, will be extremely effective.
This wasn't perfect, but nothing ever is.
This just shows everybody your
potential because you are
extremely powerful and I love you to death.
I love you too, Adam.

Up next... Cee Lo's artist.
"The Voice"... the live shows!
Tonight we are seeing artists from
team Adam and team Cee Lo perform.
As soon as the show ends, you can vote
to save three artists from each team.
From team Cee Lo, it's the
big dreams, James Massone.
One day I'm in the body shop, next day
I'm on stage in the blind auditions.
Three coaches turn for me.
Your voice has a quality about it.
In the battle I had to be confident.
You were such a pleasant surprise.
Working with Cee Lo gave
me a lot more confidence.
Maybe I can win the whole thing.
I see you as an amazing man.
I thought this song from Norah
Jones, "Don't know why."
Obviously, it's different.
I saw a lot of feedback from Twitter
and the ladies' reaction to you.
I thought it would give
you an identity, as well.
I want to give him a little flair.
I thought this would be an
opportunity to do that.
He threw me a curve with the song.
Keep it like that, you're saying?
Yes.
That puts that R&B in there,
see what I'm saying?
My voice is maturing.
I'm learning a lot from him.
I put a twist on this.
Watch out ladies, singing "Don't
know why," here's James Massone!
James Massone!
What was going on there with the ladies?
It's all right.
Let's talk to our coaches.
Great job, James.
Blake, what did you think?
I almost threw my panties on the stage.
I want to wait to hear the number
because I'm going to vote for him.
I like him.
Thank you, Blake.
Christina?
I like the more subtle
approach coming from you.
It was a nice change out.
Nice job, Cee Lo.
There were some pitch problems,
I'm not going to lie.
I'm looking at my notes,
sorry when I look down.
Almost pitched my panties.
When you do hit the notes,
you know, it's really good.
Let's talk to your coach now.
Cee Lo Green, you look like a
proud papa watching James.
First things first... ladies!
Yo, Jamie boy.
I told you, man.
This is my first time
seeing the entire set.
It's so cool.
I hope you're proud of yourself.
You did a great job, so cool,
calm and collected as you should
because you're solid.
You're solid.
You know what I'm saying?
The only constructive criticism
is maybe you paid too much
attention to the ladies.
Maybe distracted by the
ladies, so I understand.
I only wish on those higher notes
you could have projected a
little more, but you were being more
attentive to the crowd, which is cool.
I think they're going to
push you on through, man.
So I'll see you later.

Still to come, it's team Cee Lo's
turn with performance from
rocker Juliet Simms.
Welcome back to "The
Voice"... the live shows!
Six artists from team Adam and
six artists from team Cee Lo are
performing for your votes.
Now, from team Cee Lo it's the
Florida, Juliet Simms.
I had five record deals
and none of them stuck.
That's why "The Voice" is a
really great opportunity for me.
I thought I would be so lucky if
just one person turned around.
To my surprise, there were three.
I heard the story of my life in your voice.
I had to go with my gut.
Congratulations.
The pressure of the battle
rounds is really heavy.
America, here I come.
I always wanted to say that.
The song I'm singing is
"Roxanne" by The Police.
I liken her voice to a young sting.
I think it's going to be a
great performance for her.
Your voice is classic rock.
I don't want to get pigeon
holed into a classic rocker.
Of course it's rock.
Police have their own sound.
This song is not predictable,
and I love that.
I do have a classic rock voice,
but it's showing something
different that people, I
don't think, have seen yet.
Performing "Roxanne,"
here's Juliet Simms!
You don't have to put on the red light
you don't have to wear that dress tonight
you don't have to put on the red light
I loved you since I knew ya
I wouldn't talk down to ya
I won't share you with another boy
on the red light Roxanne
Roxanne put on the red light
Roxanne put on the red light
Roxanne put on the red light
Juliet Simms, everybody!
standing ovation.
Come here, Juliet.
Great, great job.
Very, very cool.
Thank you.
Let's see what the coaches thought.
Adam, I'll start with you.
Well, this just pisses me right off.
I really wanted you on my team.
I was fighting with this one
over here, then you picked him.
It was a whole mess.
God, I regret every second of it.
You're the best performance
I've seen so far.
As much as I hate having to admit that.
That is the truth, my dear.
You did the best of anyone
that's performed so far.
Wow, thank you, Adam.
Christina?
I was into it.
I was so into it.
Your voice is so... I love it.
I really loved it.
I loved you from go.
Me and Adam are a little bitter.
I know there's sour grapes going on.
I'm jealous of this one.
You definitely, I mean, I
second everything Adam said.
I hate you deeply.
Blake, what did you think?
Oh, that's the first time I
ever actually heard you like
your voice, like you sing and it's so good.
You're already very popular in
this competition, but I just
feel like I heard you actually
sing for the first time.
It's so good.
It's no wonder...
now I get it.
Now I see what the fight is about.
It's that good.
It really is.
Crack Jack liked it.
Let's go to Cee Lo.
Wow, baby, just wow!
Man, you did such an amazing job.
Way to go, Julie.
Way to go, baby.
You know what, you know what?
These two referencing the fact
they were arguing because you're
well-endowed with too much
talent to not have great taste.
It does not matter whether they
were paying attention tonight,
you would have picked me.
I am mad at you.
Claws are coming out.
You don't need smoke or
mirrors, no nothing.
All you need is that voice.

Milian who's there now.
What's up, Carson?
I'm going to bring another fan favorite.
Where is our boy James Massone?
James, let me tell you the news, you
are trending worldwide right now.
How do you feel about that?
It's amazing.
Amazing.
I was in a body shop,
now I'm here trending.
Hi, ladies.
Anything you want to say to those girls?
No.
Please vote.
That means the world to me.
You guys mean the world to me.
I love the ladies.
James love the ladies and
the ladies love James.
Hi, mom.
All right.
Back to you, Carson.
One very important lady.
You've already seen six artists
the perform for your votes.
Right now from team Adam, the 19-year-old
nursing student from Dallas, Mathai.
My dad is a doctor, my mom is a nurse.
It was always expected I would
be in the medical world.
I have to do music.
At the blind auditions,
me and Adam connected.
You owned everything u were
doing and I loved you.
Stretch the notes out more.
To win the battle round, I had
to give the note each respect.
Moving on to live shows, I
realize I'm in the right place.
I didn't come here to
waste this opportunity.
Mathai is doing a wonderful
song called "Ordinary people."
You're so good.
You're like from another planet.
She does a great version of it.
It will go a long way with people.
Sometimes you get away from the
feelings behind the words.
This is a painful song.
You can't get too melodic.
I'm going to need to sing this
song with all the feeling I have.
Performing "Ordinary
people," here's Mathai!
But this ain't the honeymoon
we're past the infatuation
love, and at times we get
sick of love, it seems like
and you've made your mistakes
and we both still got room
sometimes hurts I still put you first
but I think we should
we don't know which
we take second chances
though it's not a fantasy
ordinary people we don't know which way
ordinary people maybe we should take it
this time we'll take it slow
this time we'll take it
Give it up for
Mathai.
Team Adam.
Let's chat with the coaches.
Let's start with you, Christina?
I like your voice a lot.
I always liked it a lot, actually.
I liked the way you choice moments
to trail off and make it your own.
You have interesting choices as far as
where you want to go with your ad libs.
I think you made the right choices.
It was a little loungy for me, but I
still think you made it your own.
If you make it past this point,
I would like to see you pick it up
somehow with energy and song.
For tonight, I enjoyed it.
Thank you so much.
Blake, what did you think?
I love her voice.
I did from the blind auditions.
The thing I love about you
the most is your confidence.
Just to stand up here under this
kind of pressure and have that
kind of smile on your face
and the fact you're enjoying
yourself, it draws you in.
You're that young and you
have that much confidence.
Thank you.
Let's check in with your coach Adam.
Mathai, I think you're magical
how you are up there.
That's what I responded to just
hearing your voice and I turned
around and you have this
amazing way about you.
We talked about this song.
I specifically wanted it to be
quieter because I wanted people
to hear your voice.
I felt like things in the past haven't
been able to showcase what you can do.
Your ability is surprising.
You can do anything.
You can sing anything.
You have one of the most unique voices
I heard so far in this competition.
I couldn't possibly be happier
with that moment I just witnessed.
Thank you.
Thank you.

performances by the bottom three
again, that's tomorrow night.
But right now, Cee Lo's team
is up, with the 38-year-old
Broadway rocker from New
York, Tony Vincent.
I've been blessed to have an
exciting career on Broadway, but
my heart lies in the top rock world.
I have a baby girl on the way.
When Cee Lo turned his chair, it
was a real gratifying moment.
In the battle rounds, I had to up my game.
Papa made a pass in the battle rounds.
My wife just had a baby about a week ago.
I am so excited to be a new dad.
How's the family?
Good.
Kind of crazy.
I love the relationship I have with Cee Lo.
It makes the experience a lot more fun.
Tony wants to do "Everybody
wants to rule the world."
This is a very commanding song.
We'll make this performance
bigger than life.
Without turning into a show tune.
I think we're on the same page.
Me, too.
I'm on the right team.
I know it, man.
It's a total opportunity for me to
return to that singer that I once was.
Hello.
Singing "Everybody wants to rule the
world," here's Tony Vincent!
there's no turning back even while we sleep
behavior turn your back on mother
it's my own remorse help me to decide
of pleasure nothing ever lasts
forever everybody wants to rule
where the light won't find you
holding hands while the walls come
made it so sad they had to fade
it everybody wants to rule
never never never need it one headline
the, everybody wants to
rule the, everybody wants
Vincent from team Cee Lo, everybody.
From one father to a new father,
welcome to the club, my friend.
Thank you.
Congratulations.
Thank you so much.
How is little sadie doing?
She is a trouper, man.
She is eating and sleeping and
doing fabulous baby things.
Are you sleeping?
I am not sleeping.
Let's talk with our coaches.
Dammit.
I don't know how I feel about the whole
thing that was happening up there.
I was kind of... a little
bit evil, hellish.
And for me, I don't know, I was
so wrapped up in, you know,
whatever that was that it was
hard for me... harder for me to
concentrate on the music.
That was wonderfully vague.
Thank you.
Christina.
I know you get scared of
production and dancers.
You get scared of things.
I appreciate production value.
That's why I loved you.
So much.
I am fearless.
I feel like it's part of being a
performer, the stage presentation.
It's part of being entertaining.
That's something you have.
Congratulations, new daddy.
As a mommy as well, I
have to congratulate you.
I think there were a lot of vocal restraints
because of maybe the song for you.
I felt like you wanted to break out
and sort of attack a little bit more.
There were restrictions,
I think, with that song.
Production value was great.
I just wanted to hear a little bit more.
Let's hear with your coach thought, Cee Lo?
I feel the same thing.
I apologize if it restricted you.
Other than that, that's a technicality.
There is an evil empire.
All in love can conquer hate.
Yes.
I believe that Tony is a lover
and appreciator of art, and it's
an expression and originality.
We can all use a little bit more of that.
I would vote for Tony if he so desired
to rule the world, know what I mean?
So that's kind of the point of that, Blake,
just to clarify that for you.
It's all about love.
I feel like yes, maybe the song
constricted you a little bit.
Everybody knows you're a far
better singer than any one
performance could ever,
you know... you know.
You know what I'm saying?
I truly believe it was obvious
my team is very strong.
If you guys feel the same way, vote
for Tony Vincent the way I have.
If you want to save Tony, then vote.

Tony Vincent, everybody!
Coming up, it's team Adam's Karla Davis.
And Erin Martin.
Welcome back to "The
Voice"... the live shows.
Team Adam is up with the 25-year-old
quiet, but determined singer from
Nashville, Karla Davis.
I went on singing at a coffee shop
for singing for millions of people.
There is something amazing
about your voice.
In the battle round, Adam
told me to bring out Bertha.
She is my sassy big voice,
my inner confidence.
Winner is Karla.
I'm a completely different person than
when I came into blind auditions.
This week I'm singing "Airplanes."
I love her boldness.
I hate when people have a
cookie cutter and you don't.
I want to show people I can
do more than country music.
What happened to Bertha?
Karla sometimes is too subtle.
Build more of a melodic breakout moment.
She could stand to bring the energy
up and come out of herschel more.
Go off a little bit.
It's going to be a challenge.
Adam's giving me the chance.
I don't have to push you.
It's a big risk.
But if I go home because I didn't take
a chance, I would regret it forever.
Performing "Airplanes," here's Karla Davis!
Airplanes in the night sky
are like sh**ting stars
wish right now
night sky are like sh**ting stars
wish right now
or a genie or a wish to go back to a place
partyin' smashin' and crashin', all the
glitz and the glam and the fashion
and all the madness there comes
a time where you fade to the
in your lap, but hopin'
but them people never
sorry I'm late I'm on my way
then switch my flight
and I'll be right back
airplanes in the night sky
are like sh**ting stars
a wish right now
to the days before this was a job
what I had in my bank
back when I was tryin'
to end the politics and
get back to the music
again I say I'm hopin'
we can make some wishes
airplanes in the night sky
are like sh**ting stars
a wish right now
airplanes are like sh**ting stars
Karla Davis!
Team Adam.
All right, coaches, let's start
with Christina, what did you think?
I was definitely surprised by
the song choice and, you know,
the cowboy boots and that song I wasn't
expecting, but you did a good job.
I think you were the biggest
surprise of the night, actually.
I wasn't expecting it.
I didn't see it coming.
You have a really sweet voice.
It was a little bit of a whisper
a lot of the times for me.
When you did bring it, I liked your
I did like that ad lib you incorporated.
I singled in on that.
Thank you, Christina.
What did you think?
I think Adam's going to be pissed.
I think you did as good as
you could do with that song.
It was so wordy.
The thing you were talking
about when she sang the note.
Oh, my gosh, I wish there
had been more of that.
I didn't think the song allowed you
to explore those type of things.
It was a rapid-fire lyric.
It really was.
Adam?
I understand that.
You were in the pocket.
That's a hard song to be in the pocket of.
I appreciated that aspect, the
one Blake so angrily protested.
I think it was... I love you.
I kind of think it was one of
those things where, so everybody
in the audience at home knows,
when you sing in a room and
there is nobody watching you,
it's crazy, it's magic.
There is a huge problem
sometimes I see... I have it
myself, people get nervous.
Things happen.
There is energy you're not used to.
Sometimes when you get up there, it's
not as good as it was in the room.
And there was breathiness
and there were some nerves.
I heard those.
I felt those.
You could have been better.
I love the choice.
I love how you did the song.
Honestly, you were a huge surprise.
I'm happy Christina said that.
You did a fantastic job.
Obviously, I'm your coach so I'm going
to push you to always be were best.

One more time, ladies and
gentlemen, Karla Davis.
Next up, team Cee Lo's Erin Martin
will show us what she's got.
"The Voice"... the live shows!
Team Cee Lo now.
It's the 28-year-old former model
from Chicago, Erin Martin.
I came to "The Voice" because
I wanted to be judged by my
voice and not my looks.
That is cool.
Your voice is so strange and unique.
My voice is an acquired taste.
Team Cee Lo acquired my voice.
I have the most prospect with is Erin.
Don't make a fool of me, woman.
This week I am performing "Walk
like an Egyptian" by The Bangles.
I picked this because it had
so much character like you.
It's a unique song, quirky, silly and
sexy and I believe very fitting for Erin.
I look at Twitter.
The majority of people
thought Cheesa was the one.
You have to prove the nay-sayers wrong.
I want sight, sound, spectacle.
Total package.
You've got to win your nay-sayers
over with this performance.
Here we go.
Performing "Walk like an
Egyptian", here's Erin Martin.
On the tomb they do the sand dance
oh way oh they're falling down like a
the nile they got the money on a
oh way oh they snap their teeth
with the hookah pipes say
way oh way oh way oh way oh
slide your feet up the
street, bend your back
life is hard you know oh way oh
if you want to find all
the cops, they're hanging
oh way oh they spin the club
their yen the party boys call the
oh way oh they walk the line like
donut shop say way oh way oh way oh way oh
Erin Martin!
All right.
Coaches, here we go.
Blake, what did you think
of "Walk like an Egyptian?"
Why are you talking to me.
Here we go again with the male strippers.
What the hell does that
have to do with these?
Anyway, you know what?
I think did you as good as
you could do with that song.
I mean, I think vocally it's as
good as it can be with that song.
I think Blake just bought a
one-way ticket to b*ner town.
Christina.
It's nonrefundable, buddy.
Christina, please.
You know, I love theatrics.
I appreciate Cee Lo for
that, as I always say.
When you're up there,
you've got to bring it.
You had those men beside you.
I disagree, you can take any
song and make it amazing.
You have a unique and special voice.
You want to be judged more for
your voice rather than your looks.
I want to be honest, you could
have brought it harder with your
movement, how you interact with
the dancers and really bring it
with that look in your eye.
I wanted to hear that "Walk
like an Egyptian" like ow!
I know you from being more
aggressive with your vocals.
That's what I wanted more of.
Thank you, Christina.
From your coach, Cee Lo, what did you think?
Christina said valid things today.
I appreciate your opinion.
Erin, in terms of the stage and I always mean for it
to be dynamic instead of a distraction.
It's almost like a rap song.
Bengals did a great job.
It worked for the quirkness you
have and character you have.
I commend you learning all that lyric because
it's not easy for you to do under this pressure.
You look exceptionally beautiful.
I want you to be more aggressive
and I want your attitude.
I want your attitude to be more
take charge and win this thing.
The red team, you know what I'm saying?
Other than that, you did a great job.
I'm proud of you.

Still to come... Pip from
team Adam and Jamar Rogers.
Welcome back to "The
Voice, the live shows."
From team Adam, the 19-year-old Georgia
vocalist with an old soul, Pip.
I am more comfortable on
stage than I am off stage.
I had a couple of shows in
high schools and musical theater.
I never thought all four of
you all would turn around.
I have to go with Adam.
In the blind auditions, I had to
go with Adam because I looked up
to him for a long time.
I think Adam saw I could be
a more versatile performer.
I am definitely going to win
it because I want it so much.
In I particular song today?
I am.
I am singing "When you were
young" by The K*llers.
I really want to get into more rock music.
There is no better person right
now than to show me how to do
that than Adam Levine.
This is like be a opportunity
of rock star 101.
Want to make sure it's not too smooth.
There is heavy stuff,
make people hear that.
For Pip, if he wants to step out
of something more comfortable
and something more along the
lines of what I do, he had to
make people hear depth.
Get out of yourself and screw up.
Lose your a little bit.
It is crucial I go to the next round.
I want to show America I can
do these rock performances.
Performing "When you
were young," here's Pip!
Heartache waiting on some beautiful
boy to save you from your
watch it now here he comes
he doesn't look a thing
gentleman, like you'd
imagined when you were
your eyes, and see the
place where you used to
young they say the devil's water
right now, but you can dip your
feet every once in a little
heartache... oooh-oh-oh
waiting on some beautiful
you play forgiveness
he doesn't look a thing like Jesus but he
when you were young talks like a gentleman
Give it up for Pip!
Hey, buddy.
All right.
Where should we begin with our coaches?
How about Christina?
Oh, Pip... you know, I
appreciate your vocal ability.
I do.
I was right with Adam when I
was watching the video of the
coaching that I wanted you to
throw your vocals away more and
you come across very proper
sometimes and what not.
It came off as trying too hard for me.
I wasn't connected at all with it.
It sounded like at the beginning
you had a problem hearing the
band because it goes pitchy,
but the I got better.
Adam, what did you think of Pip?
What's happening, man?
What's up?
This is an interesting choice.
I think what's cool we are doing
with everybody, when you think
someone is like this you did present
something else that surprises everybody.
You achieved that goal.
Congratulations there I think
as far as how it went, I still
wanted to feel like... I didn't
want to trust you as much.
I wanted you to be more
dangerous and scary.
We were talking about getting
out of that, having this
emotional visceral thing where
everybody was going to be like,
wow, that wasn't the usual Pip.
It didn't totally happen.
I would say for the future,
we've got to work harder on the
intent behind what you're doing.
You're a great singer, man.
Be lest truth worry or something.
Something a little grittier.
Thank you, Adam.

Coming up, team Cee Lo will close
out the night with a performance
from Jamar Rogers.
Welcome back to "The
Voice"... the live shows!
Quickly, give it up for our musical
director and our incredible "Voice" band,
everybody!
They are the best.
Well, we've seen 11 artists take the
stage tonight to win your votes.
Now it is the final artist.
From team Cee Lo, the 30-year-old
comeback kid from New York City,
here is more on Jamar Rogers.
I was a drug addict.
I've been HIV positive for six years.
My idol turned his chair around.
You're the reason I
auditioned for this show.
I represent the comeback.
In the battle rounds, Cee Lo showed
me I can tap into my emotions.
I am living proof there is no pit too
deep that you can't climb out of.
This week I'm singing "Are
you gonna go my way."
The most rewarding experience has been
people sharing their hearts with me.
His story is so strong, people can't
help but being inspired by it.
"Are you gonna go my way" is
affirmation of leadership.
Is there a lot riding on this performance.
I want to make people proud.
I want to make Cee Lo proud.
What you've got going on ain't broke.
I'm going to try not to
think about the pressure.
I'm so glad I'm a great coach.
I'm just going to have fun.
Singing "Are you gonna go my way",
please welcome, Jamar Rogers!
Long ago I am the chosen
to save the day yeah and
I won't leave until
you've got to breathe and have some... fun

my way yeah, 'cause baby I got to
Give it up for Jamar Rogers!
All right, let's chat with the coaches.
Blake, let's start with you.
What did you think of Jamar?
No one can hear anything in the room.
Blake, I know it's loud.
Your thoughts on Jamar.
I know I'm going to be the
only one up here that says it,
but again, I don't know what in the hell
the people on the stilts have to do.
Jamar... hey.
There is not a person in America
right now that didn't find
themselves staring at however,
because that was cool.
Jamar is too good to have
all that crap going on.
Cee Lo, got to go to Cee Lo.
I wanted to say something.
Mind if I say something?
Did you hear the roar of this crowd?
Yo!
Yo!
Did you hear the roar of this crowd?
Go ahead, Cee Lo.
Did you hear that?
Did you feel that energy?
Is that not positive?
Yes, sir.
Did you feel like a winner?
Yes, sir.
Am I allowed to say one thing?
This shows us that, forget about
teams, forget my team, your
team, competition, forget about
all that, this moment proves you
embody what this show is
with what you just did.
Thank you very much.
