20x08 - The Battles, Part 2

[bunniefuu]

♪♪

[ Cheers and applause ]

America, you're not here,
but we see you on the big board!

Hello. Welcome back to the battles,
everybody.

Unfortunately,
Kelly couldn't be with us.

Kelsea,
thank you for representing her tonight.

How's it going so
far? It's been amazing.

I'm excited to see who brings
this thing home at the end.

Nick,
not easy to do what Kelsea did...

Come into "The Voice"

and help represent
Team Kelly with Kelly.

What are your thoughts? I'm very,
very impressed.

I'm not surprised. She's a pro.

I particularly love

how little reverence she
has for Blake Shelton.

Yes, that is refreshing.

Picked up on that very
quickly. John: Yeah.

He's like my country
buddy. I have to.

We all call him Pa
now because of you.

Pops. Pops Shelton.

We've got some great
performances ahead.

It is time to get to it.

The battles continue right now.

♪♪

Woman: Alright,
Team Blake. Cam Anthony.

Cam Anthony! You are
battling Emma Caroline.

What? Emma Caroline.

What? Oh, my God.

That's gonna be a
mash-up right there.

I was quite interested to
see what that would be like,

because we have
such different voices

and completely different genres.

Let's make some magic,
Emma. Let's do it. I'm ready.

Blake: Whoa! People!

My people are here! Emma: Hello.

What's up? What's
up? How's it going?

How you doing? Cam? Emma?

Yes, sir. Yes.

See how good I
am at this? So good.

And you're Blake.
You're Blake. That's right.

You remembered my name. Hey,
you know?

So, this is an interesting pairing,
right?

It is. Yeah.

When you pair two
completely different

genres of music
together like this,

you try and think, like,
what's a song that works?

And "10,000 Hours" is, you know,
a huge record right now.

This song by Dan +
Shay and Justin Bieber

is a natural, perfect song

because it's pop
and it's country artists

coming together,
which is what we have here.

So, I figured, your mentors,
it ought to be these guys.

Hey, guys. What's up?

Oh, my God. No way. So,
that's Dan + Shay.

Yes, here we are. Hey.

We tried to come
through the wall.

And the guys were like,
"Oh, no!"

Dan + Shay,
their harmonies are sick.

Singing the song in front
of the guys who wrote it

is quite intimidating,
mainly because

they are the ones who
created it. It's their baby.

What's going on,
guys? We have to sing y'all's song to you.

Yes. No pressure.

No pressure at all.
Blake tried to do it earlier,

and it was pretty
uncomfortable. Yeah.

So I'd love to
hear you guys do it.

You won't do worse than I did.

I'm excited,
man. This is gonna be really, really cool.

Yeah, where are you guys from?
I'm from Tuscaloosa, Alabama,

but I live in Nashville.

Roll tide, or... Roll tide.

Roll tide. Roll tide.

She said "Roll tide."

The blind auditions
were a dream for me.

♪ It's a slow burn ♪

Sometimes my
nerves get in the way,

but Blake saw
something unique in me,

and that means so much to me.

For the last three
years in Nashville,

I've been grinding it out,
just going to songwriter rounds

and sharing my
music with people.

This is just the biggest
opportunity that I've ever had.

Shay: "10,000 Hours,"
that's a special song.

We wrote that song in
Nashville with a couple friends.

Dan: We had this crazy idea,

"We should send this
song to Justin Bieber."

It was just, like, a Hail Mary,

but that song went
on to change our lives.

It exposed our music to people

in... in places that
we'd never even heard.

...you'll spend 10,000
hours and 10,000 more.

I've been putting
half of my life

into working as a musician.

It was all great
when I was younger.

Now things aren't
necessarily going great,

and I've kind of learned
you got to be willing to work.

Whoa! Come on.

I grew up in a
not-so-great area.

Music was something
that I always turned to.

When I was younger,
my family and I

would take a road trip
to see my grandparents.

It was open road,
and you could smell the grass.

This song takes me
back to that place.

Blake: I think I got away with
one in the Blinds with Cam.

I was blocked!

What's not to like
about Cam's voice?

Watching this guy perform,
you really realize

you're looking at somebody
who could be a big star.

♪ I'm gonna love you ♪

Emma's voice is really cool
because it combines soulful runs

with this mountain
country sound in there.

It's a neat blend.
Our work here is done.

Oh, my God, dude! Wow. Wow.

I legitimately have chills.

My chair's already turned,

but it'd be turned like... Yeah.

Absolutely unbelievable.
They sang it better than we do.

I had goose bumps,
and it was just... It was amazing.

I'm crying a little bit.

Cam,
did you grow up singing in church?

I did. I did, as well.

I have some of
that R&B influence

and kind of gospel background.

I can... I can hear it
definitely in your voice.

Unbelievable. Thank you.

Ridiculous. It's upsetting.

This... I'm going to leave.

I'm going to get out of
here. They're too good.

I can't thank you guys enough

for getting Shay to
leave here. [ Laughter ]

You know,
you guys both made the song your own,

and it's better
than the original.

I love the fact that
we've gone back

to this stripped-down version of
rehearsing with piano and guitar

because I'm really
hearing all the little details.

And the thing about you
two that strikes me first

is how great you
both are at harmonies.

I mean, those are, like,
amazing moments,

especially, like,
the lift that you guys were doing.

On the very end,
I feel like there's one more opportunity

to just go,
♪ I'm gonna love you ♪

I would do whatever
they suggest,

since they sort
of wrote the song.

It worked for them. [ Laughs ]

This is a harder song to sing

than probably
people would assume.

Kicks us when we
go to sing it live.

Yeah. Any notes
that you feel like,

"I could go higher
and hit this"...

[ High-pitched ] ♪
Might never get there ♪

Okay. ♪ I'm gonna try ♪

Cam is performing like
he's the leader of the band.

And even though, vocally,
you stand toe-to-toe with Cam,

he is performing,
and you're singing. Totally.

I've been insecure in my life,
caring what other people think.

Being on a huge stage in
front of America is a scary thing.

I need to let loose,
let go, enjoy myself,

and not let the nerves
get the best of me.

You have superpowers
in your talent.

That's how we all feel when
we hear you. Oh, my God.

We're literally looking at you

like,
"What is coming out of her mouth?"

I can do it in my
room by myself,

so I just need to imagine...

Just look like you
own the moment.

You want to be
sure we understand

your superpowers

and you're excited to be here.

Here I am, a soul R&B artist,

and I'm faced with three
legends in country music

and a song that's
out of my wheelhouse.

So I'm definitely going to
have to step up my game.

I cannot wait
to... to hear this.

Well,
I hope we get to do it justice.

Hearing Cam and Emma do our song,
they're incredible, man.

I mean,
they truly made it shine.

Shay: As artists,
they are two different genres

coming together,
but they're both phenomenal.

If I was Blake,
I would have the toughest time

having to pick between
the two. Absolutely.

Our work here is done.
You guys are doing your job,

because I have no clue
what's going to happen.

Shay: Yeah. You guys...
Thank y'all so much.

Thank you so much.
It's so nice to meet you.

I can't wait to see what you
guys do. You're awesome.

Can they both win? [ Laughter ]

[ Cheers and applause ]

Come on, man. Let's do it.

Can't start till
you... There you go.

Sit down, cowboy. [ Chuckles ]

Oopsie.

It's like an airplane
taking off. You gotta...

All the passengers
have to be seated.

Nice. Kelsea: Gosh!

Whoo!

Cam, Emma, very, very nice.

Blake, well done. Good coaching.

Wow. Thank you, Nick Jonas.

It's the only compliment
I'm going to give you today.

Emma, you've got this really pure,
beautiful tone

that I think makes
you stand out.

Cam, you have a real
gift. There's no denying it.

Your stage presence,
your breath control was phenomenal.

Thank you. And you made
some really cool choices.

I would have to say I
would go with Cam. Okay.

But, Emma,
I think you are phenomenal. Thank you.

Emma,
your tone is really lovely...

That clarity,
that grace, the power.

It's really enjoyable
to listen to your voice.

And, Cam, Nick Jonas blocked me

when I wanted to have
Cam on my team. Ah.

This is true. I don't think you had
a chance anyway, to be honest.

I think you had a
pretty good chance.

I think I had a
decent chance. Yeah.

You really seem
to sing with passion

and... and fire and conviction.

That conviction pushed
me over the edge

with you a little bit more.

But I think you couldn't
go wrong either way.

When John, Nick,
and Blake all talk about your tone

and how amazing it is,
I hope it makes you feel like a superhero,

'cause it would make
me feel like a superhero.

That's your magic power.

And I want to see you
put your shoulders back

and own it a little bit more.

I could see you do, like,
one of these, one of these "hey"s

at one point,
and I was like, "Yes!"

Cam,
you're so confident onstage.

And it's beautiful to see the
way that you played to her

and the way you played
to us and the cameras

and the people at home
watching. That is so impressive.

You're 19. When I was 19,
I was just like, "What's up?

Am I still in college?
I don't know."

Congratulations for
being so awesome.

Thank you. Daly: Thank you,
Kelsea.

Thank you, coaches. Blake,
final decision is yours.

Give us some thoughts.

Emma,
you're an incredible vocalist,

and it only appeared

that you were having as much
fun as we were listening to you

in the moments where
you weren't singing.

It's frustrating to know
you're that great of a singer,

and I don't know
that you believe

that you're that
great of a singer

because of your body language.

Cam,
your singing is unbelievable.

Your presence onstage,

you look like you
were born to do that.

Thank you so much.

Blake,
who is the winner of this battle?

♪♪

Uh...

The winner of
this battle is Cam.

Thank you.

Alright, Cam. Daly: Cam Anthony,
congratulations!

You're moving on
to the knockouts.

Blake: Cam,
he's just got that thing about him.

Sky's the limit with this guy.

We just got to figure out
what songs he wants to sing,

who he wants to be as an artist.

That's the journey for
he and I moving forward.

This is crazy. Being
on Team Blake

is definitely stretching
me as an artist,

but it's a dope challenge.

Daly: Coaches, let me remind you

Emma's available
to Steal or Save.

Emma,
what would you like to say to Blake?

I just want to thank you so much

for seeing something in
me and turning your chair.

This journey has
just been incredible.

Daly: Give it up
for Emma Caroline

one more time, everybody.

[ Cheers and
applause ] Thank you.

♪♪

Okay, Emma.

Whoa, we got a Save!

John: Oh.

Oh! Daly: We have a Save

in the last second!

Why'd you have to do that to me? Yeah,
way to make her sweat.

I wanted to scare some
stage presence into you, okay?

You did,
you did. [ John laughs ]

Okay? I will dance around now.

[ Laughs ]

Emma, you have a gift. I mean,
you really do.

And you're so much more
than someone's backup singer.

You deserve to be in
the front of the stage,

but you got to give
us something to see.

I promise I will. That's
what we're gonna work on.

I wasn't gonna let you
go home. Thank you.

I did want to scare
you a little bit.

You definitely did,
so thank you.

Daly: Mission accomplished.

Congratulations. Congratulations,
Emma.

We'll see you in the
four-way knockout.

Emma: I can't believe it.

I'm just over the
moon. I'm so thankful.

Ah, I can just see my dreams unfolding,
so it's beautiful.

Way to go, Blake.

I didn't Steal Emma
because it wasn't the right fit.

I was thrilled to see
her get Saved by Blake.

And I'm keeping it in my back
pocket for the perfect voice.

You do have a heart
after all. [ Laughs ]

Does he,
though? Y'all are just bullying me.

Yes. We're bullying you?

Is that what he... Yeah.

Oh,
sure. That's what's happening.

He's always beat up upon,
just kind to everyone all the time.

He's not vindictive. No.

Doesn't hold grudges.
And people just pick on him.

It's nice to hear this.

Yeah. [ Scoffs ]

"Despacito." I have practiced... Aw,

no. I have practiced so hard,

'cause I love singing in Spanish,
as well,

or in just different
languages. Yeah.

It is a lot of lyrics.
It's wordy for me.

biggest song of all time.

stars already. I love it.

Everybody jams to that song.

I am so stoked that

Me,
too... because you actually are having

two "Voice" coaches right now.

I kind of love hitting
people in the feels.

It's kind of my

Obviously,
you sang different vibes in the Blinds,

but that's why I gave you

"Thinking Out Loud"
from Ed Sheeran.

Wait.

What?! Hold on a second.

That was really
great! Thank you!

Halley, w-what just happened?

You know what I'm talking about.
Are you talking about the high note?

Yeah! I'm talking about the
high note. It was like a high fals...

Halley has this
incredible gift of a voice.

She can just belt
out of nowhere.

It threw me back.

You better keep that part in.

That was so, like, shocking.

And I was like, "Wait,
what?" with your range.

Kelly Clarkson just told me
that I nailed my crazy high note.

I got something going
on. I should keep doing it.

[ Laughs ]

Holly? Holly? Is that... Halley.

Halley. Ugh! I thought
I was going to do right.

It's okay. Halley. Halley.

Halley. He practiced it, too.

He was like,
"Halley. Halley." It's tough for us,

you know,
Latinos to sound... Halley.

Think about just
the storytelling side

of that first verse.

Don't sing out so much.

You almost have to think
that you're not singing it.

You're just, like, speaking it,
'cause then when you open up,

your tone is out of this world.

I relate to Ed
Sheeran as an artist

because he's a
singer-songwriter.

For as much as this song is just a sweet,
beautiful love song,

it's also about mortality,

and it's appreciating
the moments

that we have with our loved ones

and not taking
anything for granted.

For the past four years,

I've been teaching
high school science.

But then I stumbled into
the Seattle music scene,

so I'm really happy to
reach a broader audience.

But it was worth it,

Gihanna, I mean,
just perfectly done.

Your dynamics are gorgeous.

That's super sexy. It is!

I love the fact that you're
starting in your low register,

'cause then you open up. Is
that low for you in the beginning?

Not necessarily.
Probably like starting it out.

I just wanted to hear
it a little bit heavier.

Mm-hmm. It would be
cool to have a little bit

more of like a fine wine,
like a real warm body. Right.

Like a nice Bordeaux.

[ Laughs ]

Gihanna, I mean,
she came in swingin',

but I was missing
that kind of intimacy.

I need to feel like you're
really selling this song,

not the melody.

You know, sweet is cool,
but I also want it to be, like,

you know,
that kind of raw passion, as well.

To me,
the challenges of this song

would probably be being
able to feel it as much as I can,

being able to really make people
who doknow what that feels like

be able to feel it
through my music.

♪ People fall in love
in mysterious ways ♪

I think from this battle
with Halley and Gihanna,

it's going to take
whoever's going to be steady

and show me who
they are as an artist.

That was so good!
That was amazing.

In that take, it was you.

It was like you're
just baring all,

like that "Love Actually"
moment when he said...

And it's actually wrong,
'cause he shouldn't be

at his best friend's house with a girl,
but I just...

It's super wrong.

But... But I just mean,
you've got the cards.

You're standing
there at the door,

and you're just like,
"This is it."

And that's how
it felt so personal.

You guys came super prepared,
and you nailed it. Mm.

Luis: Halley's got
such a different style,

especially when she puts so much
emotion behind those long notes.

Gihanna,
it's incredible. She's only 17,

and she's already
singing like that?

Bye,
guys. Bye! Thank you. See you later.

Yeah, girls! Nice.

John: That was lovely.

Holy cow. Halley,
are you still a science teacher?

I resigned last year so
I could pursue music.

I'm a big fan of the periodic table,
so I just, you know...

Alright, alright.

What's your favorite element?

Platinum is the
one we all go for.

Yes, that's what we try to do.

Your voice is very different,
and it's kind of quirky.

You're not like anybody
else. Just a really cool voice.

Gihanna, you're 17,

but your voice
is older than that.

And to have that kind of
swagger onstage is really good.

Thank you so much.

Halley,
you have a wonderful energy.

There's something so nice about it,
something... Quirky.

She has a personality,
a vocal personality.

You do have all the
makings of a great singer.

And then, Gihanna,
you shined in this performance

even more so than the
first time I heard you sing

and you went with Kelly
instead of me... I'm sorry!

...which I'm not bitter about.
Good choice. Good choice, buddy.

If I had closed my eyes,

I would have thought
Beyoncé was here.

Oh, wait, hey. Hey.

The biggest compliment.

Kelsea, if I were you,
I would go with Gihanna here.

Thank you. Maybe you
should text that to her.

I'm gonna text Kelly right
now. Over Kelly's... Kelly's text.

Yeah,
I just want Halley to be very clear

that when people are saying
you have a unique voice,

that's your superpower,
you know? Mm-hmm.

I'd rather you be interesting
than sound like everybody else.

Thank you so much. John: Gihanna,
a lot of times

when singers are your age,

they can't do the
lows andthe highs.

From the moment you entered,
I was like, "Sing, Gihanna!"

It was like, wow,
you are just fantastic.

Thank you so much. Daly: Thank you,
coaches.

Kelsea,
how about your thoughts on the battle?

Kelly's told me a lot of stuff.

She's blowing me up right
now. She loves both of you.

Halley, I just want to tell you,

I grew up listening
to Kelly and Carrie,

female powerhouse singers.

I quickly realized that that
is not what my voice does.

Maybe I'm having my own
therapy session right now.

That's what's happening on TV in front of you.
"You're good enough. You're smart enough."

But I just wanted
you to know that.

Quirky's a good thing,
and you are worthy,

and all the good
things. Thank you.

Gihanna,
you have a presence onstage

like you've been doing it all


I mean, good God.

You're such a
technically perfect singer

that Kelly wanted you to
just not think about it so much

and let go a little bit more,
and I felt like you did.

I got to watch your rehearsal and,
obviously, your Blind,

and I-I-I saw growth from both.

She did, too.

You guys are both
incredibly talented people.

Kelsea, the time has come.

Who is the winner of
this Team Kelly battle?

♪♪

The winner of this battle...

♪♪

...is Gihanna.

Thank you. Thank you so much.
Daly: Gihanna, congratulations!

I picked Gihanna and
Kelly picked Gihanna

because she is one
of the best singers

we've seen in
all of the battles.

And she's still so young,

and there's still so much
time in this competition

for her to grow between
now and the finale.

Like, imagine what can happen.

Thank you all so much.

Nick: Gihanna blew me away.

I was legitimately
thinking it was Beyoncé,

and I was about to be like,

"Oh,
my God. The Queen Bey is with us."

I think that she could make
it all the way to the finale.

Daly: You are moving on to
the knockouts for Team Kelly!

I'm so excited to
continue working with Kelly

through this competition.

Oh!

Oh, my God. I'm so proud of you.

Thank you.

Daly: Give it up one
more time for Halley Greg.

Kelsea's... Doing a great job.

I really think Blake
is a little shook.

I know that you're
filling in for Kelly.

Yeah. And she is coming back,

but there's no reason
we can't work together.

We'll be like a duo,
like "Shellerini" or... or "Belsea."

The one thing she told me
was to try to beat you, so...

So we'll encourage
her. Destroy Blake.

Yeah. And it'll clear the path

for me to win,
and you get second place.

A version of that.

Kelly's on a beach.
She's not sick,

and she's not
here doing the work

that she's making you do, okay?

So just keep that in mind,
Kelsea. I tried.

Well, one of us is a liar here,
and it ain't me.

Tried to help you.

Woman: Durell Anthony,
you are battling Zania!

Hey! Whoo!

Let's do it. Let's get it.

We got this. I can't wait.

So, Brandy? Yes?

We've got two
more soulful singers.

We got Zania.

I was so happy.

I did my old-man

He's got a very cool falsetto.

I love that kind of

I'm going to love
their reaction.

I'm so excited.

Hey, what's up? Dang!

How are you?

Brandy's here,
y'all. Oh, my God!

Nice to meet y'all. Wow.

When I saw that it was Brandy,
I couldn't even talk.

I'm like... I'm on cloud
nine right now. This...

I grew up on her music,
and I've always studied her craft.

Wow. Wow.

Brandy is so cool, man. Like,
growing up in the '90s,

you couldn't even
really turn on the radio

without hearing Brandy's voice.

You couldn't turn on the
TV without seeing "Moesha."

It's just... It's amazing.

Both of you kind
of have a Motown...

Like, a classic energy to you.

And I wanted you to do,
like, a soulful song together.

I was listening to the
Destiny's Child version

of "Emotions,"
a great Bee Gees song.

[ Squeals ] My
heart is beating fast.

the modulation. The modulation.

It's just like...
It's all working.

Zania and I have put in a lot
of time on that arrangement

trying to get it just right.

Right.

With John complimenting
our arrangement,

it definitely feels
like the perfect song.

I love the old,
soulful stuff. And my mom sings,

my dad plays piano,
all that Motown stuff.

So anytime I hear oldies,
I just think of my childhood

and when I first fell
in love with music.

I'm always singing at home

and playing piano and
trying to write songs.

And my daughter's of the age
now where she kind of wants to sing.

My son's a little bit younger,

so he's learning
Daddy loves to sing.

And when I'm not playing music,
I'm with them during the day.

We do everything together.

I would love to win this for
my family. That's why I'm here.

There is a moment where he goes low,
when she's...

When they do the key change.

Yes. Is there a way to go...

To go up? Yeah.

I'm down to try it.

You use everything that
you have to express it out,

everybody's going to feel it. It's
noticeable when you drop down.

It totally is. Your
false is gorgeous.

If you feel like you can do it,

then it'll make it sound bigger,
you know? Mm-hmm.

Yeah. Brandy: I wanted
him to stay in his falsetto

because Zania's
singing way up there.

I just feel like they can
just parallel a little bit better.

We want our artists not
only to be good at singing,

but to be good
at storytelling too.

So think about
what you're singing,

how it applies to your life.

I relate to this song
because of a breakup.

♪ And where are you now ♪

We were together
for about 17 years.

It's pretty fresh. I'm
still trying to process it.

It makes me sad.
There's still love there.

And even though you
love someone else,

sometimes things
may not work out,

but you have to make
sure that you love yourself.

And the thing that's
helping me get through

is just constantly singing.

And this song will
help me express myself.

Brandy: Zania needs to just
work on her breath control

Whoo! Wow. Wow.

Way to take a note, right?

I mean, the breath control,
the togetherness,

it was awesome.
Thank you so much.

So the key is just going
to be execution now.

So,
that's going to be about breath control.

It's going to be about
nerves and also storytelling,

passion,
and really communicate with the audience

and making yourself
undeniable. Okay.

So get back to work.

I think Durell and
Zania are very close.

Thank you. When
they are onstage,

are they connecting
with the material?

Are they confident? Do
they seem like an artist

that can keep going
on this competition?

And I'm just going to base
it on what I see that day.

Did y'all watch the Bee

to pick this song.

Yeah. And then, Chrissy loves

the Destiny's Child
version too. Yeah.

So I was like,
"They would sound really good together."

Yeah. You guys are
with the right coach.

Alright!

In this moment only.

Oh. Oh.

You sounded great, you know,

and I feel like, man,
that's got to be hard

to get up there and
sing in that register.

And I thought you
did a great job with it.

Thank you.

Zania,
there's always that one "it" factor thing

that you can't really define.

You just kind of go,

"Mm... [Chuckling]
Mm-hmm-hmm-hmm."

And you just have that thing.

So I-I think I would be
going with Zania if it was me.

Nick: I-I thought the
song choice was brilliant.

Way to go,
John. Thank you, Nick.

It was really more Chrissy.
He said... You're right.

Yeah. They don't call her
a better half for no reason.

Zania,
you've got a natural charisma.

To be that bold showed a
lot of strength and courage

from you as an
artist and a singer.

Then, Durell,
you were so effortless with your falsetto.

It was inspiring to me

I thought Durell
won this battle.

Thank you.

Daly: Thank you,

Durell, my favorite part of
your voice is your falsetto.

You have such a
lovely tone up there.

You're in a place
where you could shine.

Thank you.

Zania,
you just have poise and grace.

And we were talking about
your breath a lot in rehearsals,

John: Durell and Zania,
what a wonderful performance.

Zania stepped up,

to her about her breath control,

and she really delivered today.

I could see her
doing really well

rounds on this show.

Tough choice. Mm-hmm.

Blake: Durell and Zania,

pop and country,

adjustment for me

I just remember thinking,
"How the heck did I get to this point

where I'm standing on this stage
in front of these four coaches?"

I'm gonna have to go
with Team Blake. Yes!

To look back and
realize how far I came

from being left in an orphanage

in kind of a rural town in China
to being up here on "The Voice"

has been one of the most
amazing experiences in my life.

Jordan,
he's learned how to sing in probably places

where you got to try
to sing over people,

where you,
coming from producing...

Yeah... it's all in here,
you know what I'm saying?

So this has got to be
"onstage performing" Keegan

and not "studio
producing" Keegan.

Yeah. Just give us all you got.

Yeah. Dan: Huge fans of Keegan.

His voice was super smooth.

I think the biggest
thing for him

to cut through against
Jordan is to step up

with some confidence.

On the high... high note there,

I know I can hit it,
but sometimes

there's a little bit of a
second guess before I do,

and I don't want to have
that on show day. Shay: Sure.

Probably the most scared I've
ever been was at the Grammys.

Oh, I was scared... I was scared for
you. We were playing... It was just piano.

I mean, I was terrified.

What if I miss this note in
front of all these people?

There's... You know,
our peers are there.

You got like Beyoncé. She's not your peer,
by the way.

Well, no, she's... No,
no. She's up there. She's up there.

The second he brought that up,
I knew exactly what performance

he was talking about,
because I was sitting at home

watching the Grammys
when he sang "Tequila,"

and I remember he ended
with a high note out of nowhere,

and he just knocked
it out of the park.

So it was cool to understand

that he's not just saying
advice off the top of his head

Blake: Yes! John: Alright.

Nick: Yeah! Wow.

Alright, alright.

Wow. Well done.

Keegan, first off,
from your blind to this battle,

you have grown quite a bit.

I mean, that... that top
register was just pinging out...

Thank you... in such
a-a pleasant way.

You know,
that can't be because of the coaching.

That's impossible. It
had to be because of you.

Despite the coaching.
Despite the coaching.

Dan + Shay. Dan
+ Shay helped him.

Oh, well, that makes sense. Ahh.

If there's any criticism,
I would just say, Keegan,

I want to see you
enjoy this more. Okay.

And, Jordan, I mean,
you're just cool, man.

[ Chuckles ] You got that grit
that I love that I could never pull off.

So I'm kind of envious of it.

And, Blake,
I-I would say Jordan has a shot

to make it all the way to
the end of this. Mm-hmm.

Thank you. John: I really
found both of you so compelling,

quite different from each
other just in every way.

Jordan, I told you,
from when you walked out

how cool your outfit looked

and just your whole vibe,
you look like a star.

But I'm going to
differ with Nick.

Ooh, controversy. [ Laughter ]

I felt like Keegan's
voice was just flawless.

Thank you. So as you go forward,

you'll find ways to be more of

an engaging presence on stage.

But I truly enjoyed
listening to you sing.

My pick would be Keegan.

Thank you. Jordan,
I was watching you,

and I was like,
"He looks so comfortable,"

and then I started watching you,
thinking,

"Man, like, this guy has been

playing on the
road for 10 years,

and all of a sudden he's not,

and I can tell
that he misses it."

And it just made me, like,
really love that performance.

Awesome. I also feel
like you've gone through

that discovery period of,
like, "What's my vibe?"

Bell bottoms. He's
settled on... Yeah.

And it's a vibe,
let me tell you... bell bottoms.

Like, what a fit. It's a vibe.

Jordan: Thank you.

Keegan, when you went to
that high note on "angels,"

I was like,
"Where did that come from?"

And you did it every time,
and you hit it

every time perfectly. Thank you.

I mean, you're 21,
you're super young,

but I feel like you're hungry.

You're, like, down to be taught,

and, you know,
I don't know if Blake is gonna teach you,

but...

[ Laughter ]

Burn. Burn.

Wow,
I thought that was gonna burn harder.

It's hard... It's hard
to burn these guys.

There's no crowd here to react.

I'll do it for you. Ooooh!

Thank you for the sound effect.

Anyway,
I was impressed by both of you,

and the hunger in you
was really beautiful,

and then the... the self-awareness
in you was really beautiful.

But I think I would
go w-with Jordan.

Thank you, coaches. Blake,
final word is yours, buddy.

Give us some thoughts.

You guys sounded
incredible together,

and there's a reason for that...

Is you put in the
work. I know you did.

And one of the things that
we talked about in rehearsals

was Keegan's a guy who's...
Music is second nature to him.

Performing is... is a little
bit of a different thing.

He's... He's a producer.
He's got his headphones on.

He's on his laptop.
He's making music how,

really, everybody, I guess,
is making music these days.

The flip side of
that coin is Jordan,

who's spent, you know,
the last 10 years in bars

or wherever in the
hell you're playing.

But at the end of the day,
you know,

you both have
incredible performances,

and I couldn't be happier.

That's all I can
ask for as a coach.

Blake,
who is the winner of this battle?

Uh...

♪♪

The winner of this
battle is Jordan.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Daly: Jordan Matthew Young,
you are moving on

to the knockouts. Thank you.

Congratulations.

Thank you,
guys. I love how weathered

Jordan's voice is,
and moving forward,

we just got to keep
him in that lane.

Those songs that work for a raspy,
warm voice like that

is gonna be the key for him.

Thank you. Thank you, buddy.

Congrats.

Jordan: Man,
this moment is huge.

I mean, this is when it
actually becomes a little scarier,

so I'm really looking
forward to that.

Coaches, let me remind you
that Keegan is available to steal.

Keegan,
what would you like to say to your coach?

The first time I came out here,

you said that you
would be honored

if I filled your team this year.

It was just,
I knew you were my guy to pick,

and I'm glad I picked you,
and thank you so much.

Good to meet you, Keegan.
Daly: Give it up for Keegan Ferrell,

ladies and gentlemen.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Ohh, we got a Steal!

Yes! Nick Jonas
presses his button.

Go, Keegan! Get back in there!

Wow, Keegan just got stolen.

That's amazing. I'm so glad.

He's so talented.

Blake: Yes!

I knew it!

Let's do it! Good Steal.

Nick: I did what I call the
Blake Shelton misdirect here.

I made it clear that I would
go for Jordan to get him

to commit to that

so that I could
execute my real plan,

which was to Steal Keegan.

Nick Jonas uses his one
and only Steal in the battles.

One and only Steal. Nick,
talk to us.

Keegan,
knowing that you love music production

means that you're a hard worker,
so I'm excited to work with you.

And let's do this. Welcome to Team Nick.
Keegan: Thank you, Nick, for the Steal.

Blake: Yes!

Daly: Nick Steals
Keegan. Congratulations!

We'll see you in the knockouts.
Congratulations, Keegan!

Give it up for Keegan
Ferrell. Thank you.

Good choice, good choice.

I wish they wouldn't
do me like that.

I was... I was walking
off the stage and all sad,

and then I hear that sound.
[ Steal button whooshes ]

It's the sweetest sound
I ever heard in my life.

[ Laughs ] I am so
excited to still be here.

Let's freakin' go. [ Laughs ]

Nick Steal. That's a cool name.

That's like your actor name.

Yeah, it is, isn't it?

♪ This is "The Voice" ♪

Daly: Welcome
back to the battles

at Universal Studios Hollywood.

I've used my Steal and my Save,

and I feel very good
about who I used them on.

Keegan was a
good choice for you.

Y'all will be happy to know
that I still have my Save.

And Kelly did tell me
to always listen to you,

and I was like,
"I don't know what to do."

Hold on. Kelly said
to listen to him?

Kelly said listen to John.

Kelly's extremely
intelligent. I'm... I'm out.

[ John chuckles ]

You hurt his feelings.

Tell me what you just said
so I can use it in the future.

Kelsea: What? What did
you say to get him out of here?

[ Laughs ]

♪♪

Any time I see people singing on this show,
I'm so blown away.

I mean,
all the people you chose are...

They're pretty special.
They are so good.

I actually think Team
Nick has a shot this year

to take Blake down.

I think that's a
pretty safe bet.

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

Team Nick, let's go!

Or Team Darren, you know.

[ Stammers ]

Does it have to be
Team Nick? Uh...

Okay,
so we have another amazing pair

of artists coming up here.

Zae was a four-chair turn.

I think my only one this season.

And then,
Lindsay is just this incredible vocalist.

And overall,
her energy just felt like something

that would match
perfectly with Zae.

Zae, Lindsay,
this is Darren Criss. What's going on?

Lindsay: Oh,
my God! Hi. My name's Darren.

- Crazy. What the heck?
- Oh, my God!

I was so excited. I was like,

"Who am I seeing?
Is that Darren Criss?"

And then it's like,
"I'm me. This is so scary."

So it was definitely
nerve-wracking.

I actually... I saw you in
"Hedwig" on Broadway.

Oh, you did? Yeah.

Whoa! Holy crap. Really?

You were incredible. I do theater,
so...

When I was 19 years old,
I moved to New York,

and I booked the national
tour of "Kinky Boots."

Being a performer,

I kind of equate it to
being like an athlete.

It's eight shows a week,
and you have to be

at the top of your
game every single night,

sometimes twice a day.

So doing that show and
theater in general has

really led me up to this moment.

♪ Pr-a-a-a-ayers ♪

I remember Nick turning around,

and then I saw Blake
Shelton turn around.

My heart was like,
"Do-do-do-do-do-do-do."

Like,
it was so crazy and so nerve-wracking.

So I'm so excited to be
here with Nick and Darren.

They're both artists who
do acting and storytelling,

so I feel like they're
really the perfect

two people to be mentoring me.

You know, one of the cool
things about having Darren as

a guest mentor here,
especially for you guys...

Darren's got a perspective
as both a musician, an actor,

a creator,
and then just a fan of music.

Were you surprised
by the song choice,

or what were you thinking? Oh,
we definitely freaked out.

We got "Rewrite the Stars."

Lindsay: That's incredible!

Oh,
my God! That's such a dope song!

The song is kind
of like my battle cry,

like, "I can do this. I can
make it this far in life."

Bouncing around from
house to house in foster care,

I struggled a lot with
depression and being bullied.

I was told that my
voice wasn't enough.

You know,
"You're not good enough."

And so coming here has been,
like, eye-opening for me.

Together: ♪ All ♪

Nick: Yeah. Darren: Nice.

Very nice. Make no mistake,

this is a pop tune that
they put in a movie musical,

cool about this song

your "theatrical" element to it.

that high note where we go...

You're pulling off

I mean,
you don't need to be scared of that note.

You have that note. You had it.

You have it. Yeah,
just make sure

placement's good on that.

But I cannot stress enough,
even on that take,

you were so worried
about the note

that you didn't connect
with your partner.

Zae: Yeah. Nick: One of the
things I love about Zae's voice

is that he showed up willing

to throw caution to the
wind and just let it fly.

You know,
those high notes are... are no joke,

but he's got to live a little
bit more in the moment,

be more connected to Lindsay.

It's funny how you feel
stressed at that part of the song,

and I get scared and back
off at the first part of the song.

For some reason,
when I get nervous,

my low range gets, like,
just kind of, like, wobbly.

Well,
it's 'cause your heart's beating

and your breath gets more shallow. Yeah,
exactly.

I think that can be
a huge asset. Yeah.

This song is so
big most of the time.

Take a little piece of paper,

put it against the wall,


just blow and keep
that piece of paper

up against the wall. Wow.

[ Exhaling sharply ] So
that in these moments

my heart's racing
and I'm nervous,

I have a game plan for this.

Nick: We left both Zae
and Lindsay with a lot

to think about,
but I think there's

a really good start here,

and I'm excited to see

how much better it gets
over the next couple days.

Man,
I wish I could sing like you guys.

This is a humble-brag name
drop because I went to college

with these guys... Benj Pasek and
Justin Paul, who wrote this song.

If they heard you guys do this,

This is a tough one, Nick.

I truly am not sure
who you should pick.

Mm! Very helpful,
John. Thank you.

I might say Zae just
because I turned for him.

But I could be the
spiteful one and be like,

"I'm not gonna say Zae

because he didn't pick
me after I turned for him."

Who would be spiteful like that?

Um, Blake Shelton would.

But, nope, I'm copping out.

Copping out.

Strike one for John
Legend. Kelsea: Wow.

Wow.

You know, I thought it was

a really interesting
song pick from Nick,

and it made a lot
of sense for you.

And I was like,
"She's gonna k*ll this."

And you did. And
then I was like,

"Wait a second,
you can do anything.

You're a chameleon." And I was like,
"Oh, my gosh,

you're holding your own with
someone who did 'Kinky Boots.'

That's incredible."
So I don't know.

It's a really hard choice, Nick.

I'd say Zae 'cause he
really held his own here,

and I was really impressed.

Thank you.

Zae,
I love the tone of your voice.

I'm sure that's why you had
four chairs turn around for you,

and it's just a
really cool sound.

But I got to say, Lindsay,
you really shocked me.

It was so good. So
just to complicate things,

I think I'm gonna pick Lindsay.

Mm. And I can't be spiteful

because I tried to
get both of them,

and they both said no to me,

so that's not gonna work.

Daly: Thank you,
Blake. Thank you, coaches.

Nick,
got a big decision to make here,

but give us some
thoughts on that battle first.

this performance should be

a learning opportunity, right?

We move forward with confidence,

and whoever I don't pick,

know that this journey
has been incredible,

congratulations.

a force in this competition.

He really rose to
the occasion today

those high notes,

found a way to

obvious choice to me.

Corey: My dad was
a drummer in a band,

and that's how I got into music.

And I learned how to play drums

and then dabbled
in guitar and singing,

and it kind of just kept
snowballing from there.

With "Dreams,"
it's a song about a breakup

and heartbreak and separation

is my parents divorced

when I was young,
and our family just kind of separated.

been extremely hard.

for bringing your "A" game.

It was cool. Savanna: Thank you.

Corey: Gracias. De nada.

It's going to come
down to who can handle

the nerves in that moment,
you know, when it matters.

You're like, "Oh,
I just kind of threw them together."

Ba-da! [ Laughs ]

Lovely.

Yeah, y'all. Is this the one

where the guy's
drinking the juice?

Look at you,
knowing what the kids are doing.

[ Laughter ]

Okay, you guys both did great.

I think we gotta figure out

what happened
there in the middle.

It had the potential of somebody
being a little pitchy there,

but for the rest of the song,
it was sogood.

I got to say, Savanna,
you're the biggest surprise.

When I hear an artist like
you and the way you sing,

you kind of have this angelic
voice that's kind of floaty,

but you have so much
power and so much range.

Thank you. That was incredible.

Great job, buddy.

Thanks, buddy. Yeah.

Corey,
you can't put a value... Yes, sir.

...on that kind of a weathered
sound that you have.

To have that sound
and incredible tone

and pitch is really good. Thank you,
sir.

I know I'm supposed to help you here,
Kelsea.

By the way,
I think this is bull crap.

I think the... the
least they could do

is put "Team Kelsea"
up here for the time being.

Or just... just
"Kel." "Team Kel."

Yeah, yeah,
Kel. It goes for both.

Brilliant thinking right there.

Yeah. Team Kel.

I don't know,
Savanna shocked me.

Well, I hope I can be of help to you here,
Kelsea. Please.

But I'm at a loss
because I think

that you're both
really special artists.

And on one hand, Savanna,

if you went and made
a record right now,

it would be
something immediately

that I'd want to hear,
go see you live. Thank you.

And I'm so curious to see where
you go as an artist from here.

Corey,
even just from the blinds to now,

you've risen to this
occasion in such a big way.

I feel like this maybe meant
something more to you.

There was an inner source or
an emotional pull that you had.

Most definitely,
yeah. If there's one encouragement

I could give you,
you know, it's just to keep

tapping into that source,
that thing that drives you.

Thank you so much. Means a lot.

Both of you seem
to love being up here,

being in this moment. Yes, sir.

It's very uplifting when
you watch performers

that put love into it

and project love to
the audience. Mm.

I would lean a little
bit toward Corey,

and the reason why... Wow.

...something about
Corey's voice,

the edge that it has,
the urgency that it has,

the push that it has.

I thought both of
you were wonderful,

but that was more compelling.

Daly: Thank you,
coaches. Kelsea, you got

a tough one here,
that's for sure.

I know. Before you
tell us the winner,

just give us some thoughts.

First of all, this song is

one of my favorite songs
of all time. It's a good one.

I've also covered this song
as a duo with my friend Halsey,

and I remember
how hard it was for us

to try to make this our
own because it's so iconic.

And I'll say, y'all did it.

Like, especially you. Thank you.

You know how to use
your gift and your tool.

It made a song that I've
known since I was a kid

sound like your song.

That's artistry.

And, Corey,
when I watched your blind,

I couldn't decide
if you were country

or if you were singer/songwriter,
alt,

or what you were, and I'm
obsessed with that. Corey: Yeah, yeah.

Like, I love music that you kind
of scratch your head and you go,

"Huh, this is great. Where
does it fit? No one knows."

I've talked a lot with Kelly,
and this is very hard for her,

and it's also very hard for me.

It's not fun,
this part. John: No.

No one tells you it's not fun,
this part.

No one tells you
about this part.

This is the... This is
the sneaky bad part.

This is why Kelly
didn't show up today.

This is why Kelly
didn't show up today.

That's why she's on the beach.

Daly: Nobody envies the decision

that you're gonna have to make

representing Kelly right now,

but the time has come.

Kelsea,
who is the winner of this battle?

Kelsea: There's
so much potential

and growth and exciting things

to happen here on this stage,

so the winner of
this battle is Corey.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Daly: Congratulations, Corey.

You are moving on
to the knockouts...

Thank you.
...representing Team Kelly.

Kelsea: Congratulations. Congratulations,
Corey.

Kelsea: I had to pick Corey
because there's gonna be

so many opportunities to show

so many different sides
of himself as an artist,

and I think that he'll
be able to shine in that.

Corey: Very excited to
continue working with Kelly.

It means the world to me.
I'm so happy for my family.

Thank you.

Holy crap. [ Chuckles ]

Daly: Coaches,
let me remind you,

Savanna is available
to Steal or Save.

Savanna,
anything that you'd like to say?

Yeah. Thank you
guys all so much.

Especially you, Kelly,
wherever you are.

It's just helped me
hone in my artistry more.

Thank you, guys. Wonderful.

Daly: Give it up for
Savanna Woods,

ladies and gentlemen.

Nick: Appreciate it. Thank you.

Daly: Whoa, we got a Save!

Oh, my God! Yes! Oh, my God!

Daly: Kelsea Ballerini
representing Kelly Clarkson... Whee!

I had to! ...breaks
out the Save!

Savanna, get back on stage.
You're not going anywhere yet.

Kelsea: I saved Savanna
because she's so calm

and so confident. I was
just intrigued by that.

I, as a fan, wanted to see more,

and I definitely want
to see what Kelly does.

Me and Kelly were texting.

I was like, "Kelly,
what do I do?"

She was like,
"Save her!" I was like, "Okay."

Yay! Yay!

Kelly knew that this was
gonna be a hard one, as well,

and she was down for the Save.

Kelly loves you,
and I'm here to speak for Kelly,

so I love you, too,
then. And I love her and now you.

Yeah,
I'm just gonna invite myself

into this love fest. Please do.

Daly: Kelsea saved
Savanna... Yay.

...and we will see you now
in the four-way knockout.

Yay! Savanna Woods.

Thanks,
guys. You are back on "The Voice,"

Congratulations.
...Saved by Team Kelly.

Yay! Savanna: Watch out,
America.

I'm gonna bring
everything. [ Laughs ]

I'm very ready for
the four-way knockout.

Announcer: That brings
our evening to a close.
