Team Adam: Keith Semple versus Manny Cabo singing Baba O'Riley by The Who-- Love both of these guys, someone has to steal one of them cause they are both too good to go anywhere. I love how they harmonized and fed off each other throughout the performance. The coaches were all on their feet. Blake said that was one of the best battles ever. Pharrell loved Keith's reaching notes, and he felt like Manny's voice is stratospheric. Gwen said Manny knows what he is doing, and she said Keith is a natural star. Adam said this was like a tennis match and the presence was felt on both sides.
My choice: Keith
Adam's choice: Keith
Team Blake: Chris Crump versus Krista Hughes singing When I Get Where I'm Going by Brad Paislet and Dolly Parton-- Pharrell said Chris's performance was strong. I actually preferred Chris here because I was more affected by his performance, it was emotional. Gwen thought Chris was better. Adam said the battle was exceptional.
My choice: Chris
Blake's choice: Chris
Team Pharrell: Madi Davis versus Sydney Rhame singing Riptide by Vance Joy, Pharrell chose Madi Davis
Team Gwen: Alex Kandel versus Kota Wade singing It's My Life by No Doubt, Gwen chose Kota Wade
Team Gwen: Jeffrey Austin versus Noah Jackson singing I Can't Feel My Face by the Weeknd, Gwen chose Jeffrey
Team Pharrell: Ivonne Acero versus Siahna Im singing You Keep Me Hanging On by The Supremes-- I like both ladies. They both need some refining. I would say that Siahna comes across as a little pageanty, and Ivonne comes across a little more believable. The coaches seemed to like both ladies and think that this was a tough choice. I would go with Ivonne. Gwen and Blake are trying to steal Ivonne. Blake said in regards to Adam, isn't Howie Mandell on America's Got Talent, what are you doing here right now? You're not even on this show!
My choice: Ivonne Acero
Pharrell's choice: Siahna Im
Look out for Keith Semple and Chris Crump

Night 4 of The Blinds on The Voice Season 9
Darius Scott sang You Make Wanna by Usher-- I think Darius has a good voice, but not a great voice. I liked when he got towards the middle of the song, the vocal embellishments were interesting. Adam turned followed by Gwen and Pharrell. Gwen said she's had the longest career and he should pick her cause she's going to help him.
Darius chose Pharrell
Korin Bukowski sang Cecilia and The Satellite by Andrew McMahon-- Gwen was the only one who turned around. I liked this girl, and I think she is so different that she might do well. The trouble I have with her is that I think, based on that performance, that her voice is just average.
Gwen chose Korin
Krista Hughes sang Angel from Montgomery by -- All four of them turned around and rightfully so, this girl has an amazing voice. I think Blake is right, she could potentially win this thing. Adam thought she was flawless. Pharrell said he takes his hat off to her. Blake said I take nothing for granted. Blake told her to pick him because he knows and understands who her musical influences are.
Krista chose Blake
Janae Strothers sang Uptown Funk by Bruno Mars-- No one turned. Sad face. Blake said she was having a party on stage, but he felt like she was falling out of the pocket. I agree with Blake.
Chance Pena sang I See Fire by Ed Sheeran-- Adam is the only one who turned. Adam said you guys screwed up so badly. Pharrell said he gave a flawless performance. Gwen said she has no idea why she didn't push. What I liked about Chance is the maturity in his voice and how he sounded so different.
Adam chose Chance
Viktor Kiraly sang What's Going On by Marvin Gaye-- Another four chair turner! This guy impressed me, I was smiling throughout the performance cause he was so good. His dynamics were good, and just when I thought he reached as high as he could in that song, he took it to another level. Adam turned at the beginning and he was trying to keep a poker face, but he said it didn't work because he was so good. Adam told him that he could win this entire thing. Blake asked if he performs a lot, and called him a phenomenal singer and said he could win this thing. He said he may not be the obvious choice and Adam said, certainly not. Pharrell liked his voice paired with his personality. Gwen liked the richness in his voice.
Viktor chose Adam
Julie Broadus sang Brand New Key by Melanie-- No one turned. Blake liked the vintage sound of her voice. Gwen encouraged her to come back and said she would recognize her voice.
Cole Criske sang Dreaming with a Broken Heart by John Mayer-- The fact that he is 16 and sang with that much conviction and sincerity is amazing. He got Gwen, Pharrell, and Blake to turn. Blake said he has recorded with Xena and he's won The Voice four times. Gwen spoke about "Tragic Kingdom" and how tragedy in her life inspired her to write that album. Pharrell said he'd love the opportunity to work with him.
Cole chose Blake
Alex Kandel sang Bright by Echosmith-- I actually really like this girl. She has a lot of personality and it really came out in her vocal and in her performance. Gwen liked the character in her voice. Adam felt like it started out so strong and the vocal only needed small tweaks.
Alex chose Gwen
Celeste Betton sang Love You I Do by Jennifer Hudson-- I liked her, there were some small weird things in there that need to be taken care of but it is nothing Pharrell won't be able to fix. Pharrell said she is great and amazing. He said he pushed his button because of the ambition she had.
Pharrell chose Celeste
Andi & Alex sang Thank You by Dido-- All four chairs turned and all four coaches were on their feet. This interpretation of the song was so inspiring. Adam said you're one of the most perfectly fitting duos I've ever heard. That was astonishing. Blake said, oh my God, that was phenomenal, I'm the only person that has taken a duo to the finale. Gwen said obviously that version came from you guys and it was super creative, we'd be an amazing team. Pharrell said I would consider working with you another lesson.
Andi & Alex picked Adam
Faves of the night: Viktor Kiraly, Cole Criske, Alex Kandel, and Alex & Andi
