The Voice Season 14: Team Kelly and Team Adam Perform and Who Are the Top 12?

Team Kelly:

Caleb Lee sang Die a Happy Man by Thomas Rhett-- Kelly called Caleb the best country singer on the show. 

Alexa Capelli sang Stop and Stare by One Republic-- Both Kelly and Alexa are emotional by the end of the song. Kelly says she is so proud and calls Alexa captivating. 

D.R. King sang All On My Mind by Anderson East-- D.R. put a lot into that performance, he definitely has a strong voice and wants to be there. Kelly calls D.R. so talented and it's refreshing. 

Dylan Hartigan sang Mary Jane's Last Dance-- Interesting song choice from Dylan, I was somehow less than convinced with this performance. I think I would have preferred something more contemporary from him. Kelly says that Dylan is so good looking that people seem to forget just how talented he is. 

Tish Haynes Keys sang At Last by Etta James-- Tish is old school, her performance is so soulful and genuine. She must move forward in my opinion. She looks gorgeous too. Kelly says Tish is so gifted, and she's such a phenomenal singer. 

Team Adam:

Reid Umstattd sang Long Cool Woman by the Hollies-- I loved Reid's performance, this was so raw and authentic. The more I see him, the more I feel he deserves to move forward. Adam said no one has done anything like that and that energy felt so real. 

Jackie Verna sang Once by Maren Morris-- I like Jackie a lot but that performance was a little boring for me. Adam said he is beaming with pride, you're beastly. 

Drew Cole sang Wild Horses by The Rolling Stones-- This is the best I have heard Drew in forever. I loved this. Adam said he loved Drew's arrangement on that song. 

Mia Boostrom sang Either Way by Chris Stapleton-- Hmm, Mia sounded a little off tonight. Not sure, I just wasn't feeling this. Adam said that Mia has beat the odds over and over again. 

Rayshun LaMarr sang I'm Goin' Down by Mary J. Blige-- Oh wow! I'm loving Rayshun, he is in it to win. His emotion when he sings always blows me away. He puts so much in to every performance. Adam said, you just won the week.

The Voice Season 14: I'm Fallin' for the last of the Knockouts

Team Alicia: Britton Buchanan sang New York State of Mind by Billy Joel vs. Dallas Caroline sang sang Bless the Broken Road by Rascal Flatts-- Britton showed more here. Dallas has a sweet voice but still seems like she has some developing to do in terms of experience on stage and vocally. Adam said he'd have to go with Britton because he wanted him on his team. Alicia felt both of them conquered something new. Alicia chose Britton because she said he seems to just keep evolving.
Alicia chose Britton

Team Kelly: D.R. King sang I Know I'm Losing You by The Temptations vs. Tish Haynes Keys sang Lady Marmalade by Patti La Belle-- I thought both of them did great. This was the perfect song for Tish. There is something really special about D.R. Adam said D.R., what you did was amazing, taking that song and making it your own, and then Tish came out and I miss you so much Tish. Blake  said D.R., we always look forward to you coming out, and Tish you came out and just blew us away.
Kelly chose D.R., and Kelly saved Tish but Adam wanted to steal her back.... Tish chose to stay with Kelly

Team Blake: Dylan Hartigan sang You Are the Best Thing by Ray LaMontagne vs. Wilkes sang The Climb by Miley Cyrus-- I actually did not love that performance from Dylan, although, at the same time, I think he is very talented. He's actually one of my favorites in the competition. Wilkes was awesome, loved his range, loved that he sang Miley. Kelly said she commends both of them. Alicia said Dylan is so smooth. Adam said Wilkes is crazy with his range and tones. Blake said both of them did what they could do.
Blake chose Wilkes, and Kelly stole Dylan

Team Adam: Gary Edwards sang Many Rivers to Cross by Jimmy Cliff and Rayshun LeMarr sand Fallin' by Alicia Keys-- Gary really took us to church, loved his song choice, so inspired. Rayshun chose a tough song, and he really made it his own. His vocals were super on point. Kelly loved Gary's song choice and performances. Blake said Rayshun, you're so full of everything. Alicia loved both guys. Adam said Rayshun, you hit those notes that you thought you couldn't, no one else on the team has your fire. Adam said Rayshun is swinging for beyond the fences.
Adam chose Rayshun and Blake stole Gary

Team Kelly: Alexa Cappeli sang Goodbye Yellow Brick Road by Elton John vs. Jorge Eduardo sang Adorn by Miguel-- So I didn't like how Alexa scooped up into the notes, especially when she was singing "Road".  Jorge definitely had the crowd on his side. Blake loves how the crowd reacts to Jorge, and he thinks Alexa is one of the best singers in the competition.
Kelly chose Alexa

Team Adam chose Reid Umstattd who sang Let Him Fly by Patty Griffin

Team Alicia: Kelsea Johnson sang Rise Up by Andra Day vs. Sharane Calister sang All I Could Do Was Cry by Etta James-- Wow! Both women were extraordinary. But for me, Sharane wins this hands down. Her voice made me watch and listen just so intently, her emotion absolutely drew me in. Adam said he wishes he could have them both. Kelly said Sharane is one of the most emotional singers on this show. Blake said Sharane, you just have those pipes, WTF! Blake said the way Kelsea's voice breaks up excited him as a listener.
Alicia chose Kelsea and Adam stole Sharane

My prediction:

I think D.R., Dylan, Rayshun, and Sharane are going to go far in this competition.

The Voice Season 14: Oh Sweet Thing, It's the Battle Rounds ;-)

Team Alicia: Jamai vs. Sharane Calister sang Mercy by Shawn Mendes-- To be honest, I was not thrilled with either but, if I had to choose, Jamai had more vocal control to me. Kelly said Sharane you had so much ache in your voice, and I'd lean towards you. Alicia said Jamai you have grown exponentially and Sharane it's like you've liked 11 lives and you're only 24. 

Alicia chose Sharane, and likened her to Beyonce 

Team Kelly: Brynn Cartelli vs. Dylan Hartigan sang Ready for It by Taylor Swift-- I thought that they were both great. Brynn had a lot of power and energy. Dylan brought a lot of personality and swag. Alicia said, I like people that get on the floor Dylan because it shows that you really want it. Adam said, are you really 14 Brynn? You're a star. I'd go with you. Blake said you're both young-- Dylan you have a good voice and Brynn you're a star, but it got pretty loud for Dylan. 

Kelly chose Brynn, and Blake stole Dylan! 

Team Blake: Jesslee vs. Kyla Jade sang One Last Time by Arianna Grande-- I think both ladies did a great job considering this song was so far out of their lane in terms of vocal style. Kelly really got into it, I could tell she was really feeling Kyla. Alicia said both of them shined and reminded Kyla not to shut down on her greatness. I think like Blake said, she is so used to being in the background that she almost isn't used to being in the lead. Blake said Kyla really had to figure out how to not be a background singer. 

Blake chose Kyla

Team Adam: Rayshun LaMarr vs. Tish Haynes Keys sang Sweet Thing by Chaka Kahn-- Wow, I don't dance, at all, ever! These two had me wanting to get up and dance. They were so good, their voices blended well and were so soulful. Kelly and Adam were up out of their seats, now this is a legit battle! Both of them deserve to move on. Adam said you both had a moment and that happened cause you were together. Kelly said Tish you remind me so much of Chaka and Aretha, I'd love both of you on my team. Alicia said you both were amazing. Adam said I love you both equally and both should be in this competition. 

Adam chose Rayshun and Kelly stole Tish

Team Alicia: Christiana Danielle vs. Shana Halligan sang Use Somebody by Kings of Leon-- I actually did not love the way they changed up that song, I wish it would have been more true to the original. Adam said that there is something very unique about Christiana. Alicia loved it and thought that they killed it. Hey, that's all that matters!

Alicia chose Christiana

Team Kelly: D.R. King vs. Jackie Foster sang Sign of the Times by Harry Styles-- Alicia said it was her fave battle so far. Oh wow, I disagree Alicia! I thought the battle from Team Adam was the best one. I will agree this was a close second. Both of them had strong voices. D.R. has an unreal falsetto, it's so clear and Jackie has so much power behind her voice. Adam said that they were astonishing, and Kelly said that she loves them both and couldn't imagine pairing them with anyone else. This was a standing ovation but all 4 coaches. Unsure why Rayshun and Tish wasn't a standing ovation as well. 

Kelly chose D.R., and there was a triple steal for Jackie

Adam said Jackie what you did is definitive. Alicia said Jackie you stood on your own, separate from D.R. Blake said I love Jackie, and reminded her about how he stole Chloe last year. 

Jackie chose Adam   

So many amazing singers tonight--- BIG voices! Who impressed me? Every battle that had a steal.... these vocalists are contenders-- Brynn, Dylan, Tish, Rayshun, D.R. King, Jackie is a dark horse. 

The Voice Season 14: Night 2 of the Blinds, and It Don't Need No Doctor!

Davison sang To Love Somebody by The Bee Gees-- All the coaches debated turning but only Adam and Blake did. I agreed with Alicia's comment that he has a storyteller type of voice. Blake said you have a vintage quality to your voice. Adam said before I released my first album I listened to the Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, and if that's the kind of record you wanna make, I know who you are. Blake promised that Davison would be the centerpiece of his team.
Davison chose Adam

Jaclyn Lovey sang Can't Help Falling In Love by Elvis Presley-- She may have been the person I have liked the most so far this season. At 16, wow, I loved her interpretation of that song. I loved the liberties she took with that song, her courage to change and add her own nuances. One of my favorites, loved this! Blake and Alicia turned. Blake said as I was listening to you singing, I was picturing myself riding a unicorn and holding a care bear.
Jaclyn chose Alicia

Sophia Dion sang What A Man-- No one turned, there were some pitch issues here. Kelly said she was looking for a little extra. Blake said the lyrics needed to be cleaned up a little.

Molly Stevens sang Heavenly Day by Patti Griffin-- Blake and Kelly turned almost immediately. Kelly said do you want to do soulful country rock? Kelly said I love all genres of music. Adam said Kelly would be a great fit for you, and Blake said how am I not surprised you said that. Truthfully, I felt like I didn't love her as much as they did. I almost felt like her voice was too husky!
Molly chose Kelly.... Blake dodged a bullet

Dylan Hartigan sang Danny's Song by Loggins and Messina-- I liked his voice, but I did NOT like the song choice. He's into folk rock. I have never been a huge fan of that song. His voice seems versatile though and Kelly was the only coach to turn, so we have a match!
Kelly chose Dylan

Pryor Baird sang I Don't Need No Doctor by Ray Charles-- Pryor has so much soul! There is a bluesy feel to his voice and there's this grit and rasp in his vocal. Adam loved the way he sang and played, and believes Pryor would be at home on his team. Blake said you're an incredible vocalist, you have that weathered sound, and I want you on my team. Alicia said you have such power and range.
Pryor chose Blake

 My prediction: I see Jaclyn and Pryor making big strides in this competition and being around for a good while! ;-)
