The Voice Season 28: The Battles Come to a Close and the Knockouts Begin

Team Snoop: Ralph Edwards vs. Jerrell Melton sang Lose Control by Teddy Swims-- I have a feeling Snoop is going to choose Ralph; however, I would choose Jerrell. I liked how polished his runs were in this performance. Niall loved the song choice. Reba said powerful and smooth like butter. She loved the harmonies, she said it would be a hard decision but she would go with Jerrell. Michael compared Jerrell to Sam Cooke but said Ralph will go far on the show. Snoop said Jerrell went out of the box.   
Snoop chose Ralph, just like I suspected 


Team Reba: Shan Scott vs. Peyton Kyle sang Don't Dream It's Over by Crowded House-- I have been a huge Peyton fan since the blinds. I love what he did here. Shan, I didn't really pay attention to, but I loved her here. I would still go with Peyton. He just impressed the heck out of me. I also loved this acoustic version. Snoop couldn't choose. Michael would lean more Peyton and Niall would lean more Shan. Reba said she loves the break in Peyton's voice. 
Reba chose Peyton


Lightning Round: 
Team Michael: Teo Ramdel vs. Elias Gomez sang Die with a Smile by Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars 
Michael chose Teo 

Team Niall: Dek of Hearts vs. Jack Austin sang I Will Wait by Mumford & Sons-- I love both artists. I think I would lean with Jack just because I love his theater influence and I am excited to see how he grows. Reba said Dek of Hearts you guys are great, I love the harmonies, Jack, you're cute as a button. I'd pick all four of you. Michael said Jack you fit in perfectly with Dek of Hearts. Snoop liked how Jack was dancing up there. He said they were all just having fun up there and he's glad that he doesn't have to choose. 
Niall chose Dek of Hearts and Michael stole Jack



The Knockouts:

Mega Mentor: Joe Walsh 

Team Reba: Aubrey Nicole sang I'm Gonna Love You Through It by Martina McBride and Leyton Robinson sang I Could Use a Love Song by Maren Morris --  Aubrey sounded beautiful! I love Leyton but I think she sounded a little shouty in this performance. Reba said Leyton took great direction from Joe. Reba said Aubrey your performance reminded me of how life goes on. I'm leaning towards Aubrey, and Reba chose Aubrey. 


Zac Brown is the other Mega Mentor. 

Team Snoop: Ralph Edwards sang Dive by Ed Sheeran and Kenny Iko sang There Goes My Baby by Usher-- I love Kenny's confidence and energy on the stage. He is definitely my type of artist and song choice was perfect for him. Reba was standing up for him! She loved it. I liked Ralph's performance as well but I think ultimately, I felt Kenny's a little more. Niall said Kenny I feel like I'm watching a pop star. Reba said Kenny you took control of the stage, Ralph your voice comes from your toenails. Michael said Kenny you prepare for your performances and come and hang with us. Ralph you sang with ease. Snoop said Kenny you're a superstar, and this is called showbiz. Ralph you showed that there is more to your voice. 
Snoop chose Ralph, wow, I think that was an oversight. 



Team Niall: Sadie Dahl sang Good at Goodbyes by Sam Smith and Ava Nat sang Hopelessly Devoted to You by Olivia Newton John-- I loved both ladies, but I think I agree with Niall, I lean towards Ava and her storytelling abilities. Reba said she can't choose, she'd pick them both. Sadie your vibrato and Ava your beautiful tone. Ava I'd give you the edge today. Snoop said he would lean towards Sadie. Niall said Sadie you straightened out your pitch issues, and Ava you told a beautiful story. Niall said Ava is consistent every time, I feel so confident.
Niall chose Ava 



Loving Aubrey Nicole, Ava Nat, and Peyton Kyle in this episode <3 <3 <3

The Voice Season 28: Week 3 of the Blinds and I Hear a Symphony

Night 5

**FOUR CHAIR TURN**
Dustin Dale Gaspard sang Bring it on Home to Me by Sam Cooke-- Dustin can really sing and his identity is one of a kind. I've legit never heard someone like him. I love the song choice and the soul he put into the song. Niall said that was absolutely incredible, please pick me. Reba said you're unusual and refreshing and I'd love to have you on my team. Michael said thanks for crushing it. Snoop said they saved the best for last. He said he has family in Louisiana. 
Dustin chose Niall


Kanard Thomas sang Whip Appeal by Babyface-- Love this song, I think he picked a good one for himself. Yes!!! Snoop and Niall turned. He definitely brought the soul. Niall said great audition, I have no one like you on my team. Reba said I loved your song and you have a great voice. Michael said I need a ticket to the cruise ship you're on, that was sexy. Snoop said I could tell that you were a performer and you sang that song like it was yours. 

Kanard chose Snoop


Shan Scott sand Wish I Knew You-- I did enjoy the richness of her voice but I think what threw me off was that I was not familiar with the song. Reba mentioned this as well but obviously turned at the last minute. The song was about to be over. Reba said your voice is like wrapped in a fur coat.  

Reba chose Shan

Carly Harvey sang It Hurt So Bad by Susan Tedeschi-- Hmm I liked her but there was something about the performance that was a little rough to me. Reba and Michael turned near the end. Niall said the power you have I couldn't help you navigate. Reba said we can have fun, and Carly said we're matching with the turquoise and she said I know girl. Michael said I don't know if you noticed but I have some turquoise in my watch. 
Carly chose Michael

Colin Bracewell sang More Than a Woman-- The song was a little old fashioned. I wish he had done something a little more contemporary. Maybe Ed Sheeran? He got no turns. 

Vinya Chabra sang Ironic by Alanis Morrisette-- Loved her voice, I don't think the song did her justice but I like her and I think she could potentially do very well on this job. Reba turned, followed by Michael, and Snoop. Reba was impressed with her and said that they would have a lot of fun together. Michael harmonized with her. Snoop said I'm rocking out, I'm from an era when rock, rap, and alternative were meshed together. He said you pack a powerful punch at your age. You have superstar qualities. Feels like you need to be on my team. 
Vinya chose Reba

Lightning Round:
Conrad Khalil sang Caught Up by Usher and Reba was the only one who turned for him. 

Liam Von Elbe sang Slow Dancing in a Burning Room by John Mayer-- Loved his voice, the tone, the sound, the sensuality. Gorgeous audition. Song choice was spot on. Niall and Snoop turned. Snoop said the sound of your voice was mesmerizing, you're the whole package. You're what we need on the show and our team. Niall said he could put on his headphones and listen to him and go to sleep, I've been waiting for you dude. 
Liam chose Niall 


Lauren Anderson sang Midnight Train to Memphis by Chris Stapleton-- I loved Lauren's vocals. You can hear that she is a seasoned artist. This song was great for her. I will love seeing her versatility. Snoop was the only one who turned and he said I deserve you and you deserve me. Michael said I wanna hear the song choices you come up with together, and he said Are You Gonna Go My Way! 

Snoop chose Lauren


Ava Nat sang I Love You I'm Sorry by Gracie Abrams-- Her voice is full of feeling but so strong, like such a gentle strength. Everyone except Michael turned and he said he wants to steal her. Snoop said she performed like she was on Broadway. He said it would be an honor to be your coach. Niall said it sounds like you were reading out of your journal. He talked about the emotional connection she had to the lyrics. 

Ava chose Niall


**FOUR CHAIR TURN**
Teo Ramdel sang Historia de un Amor by Luis Miguel-- Teo has a great voice, I was surprised. He has a seasoned voice. He's also a performer. Reba said your singing was sensual, sexy, I was very moved, and I have no idea what you said. Michael spoke to him in Spanish, and said we listen to Luis Miguel everyday in my house. Snoop said Happy Birthday to him in Spanish. Snoop said you're not a singer, but an entertainer. Niall said you don't have to understand Spanish to hear a voice like that and the emotion you have with it. 
Teo chose Michael 


Night 6

**FOUR CHAIR TURN**
Trinity sang Don't Let Go by En Vogue-- Love her song choice, En Vogue is one of my faves. I think she h has real star quality, and I am interested in seeing what she does in the coming rounds. Reba said you're a powerhouse, and I couldn't hit my button fast enough. Michael said, like Reba said, our dance cards are almost full. But I need you on my team. Snoop said, you held it down, come be with me on my team. Niall said you're a superstar on the show, please pick me. 
Trinity chose Michael 


Letter to Elise sang Take On Me-- Amazing duo, their voices blend well and they fill in each other's gaps. The song choice was masterful. Snoop and Reba turned. 

Letter to Elise chose Reba


Camille Tredoux sang Behind Blue Eyes by The Who-- She has a cool sound, her tone is so interesting. Loved the vibe of her song choice. Niall said he loved her Janis Joplin vibe and said he could hear her on the radio now. He loved her song choice. Reba said there was something so soothing about her voice and she had to turn. 
Camille chose Niall


Emmanuel Rey sang Primera Cita by Carin Leon-- Emmanuel is from Inglewood, I definitely felt the vibe of his community in his voice and in his performance. He has a certain swagger that was cool and confident. It takes guts to sing a song totally in Spanish to a mostly American audience. He sounded great. Snoop and Michael turned. Mike said he has been lucky to have the Latin flavor on his team both years and he hopes Emmanuel will continue the tradition. Snoop said he has a mariachi singer on his record label, Julian Torres. Mike mentioned how much he liked him and Snoop said that's why Emmanuel needs to be on his team.

Myra Tran sang Symphony-- I actually loved her style. Snoop said the "L" is not a loss it's a lesson. 

Lightning Round: 
Aubrey -- Reba Chose Aubrey

Aaron Nichols sang Cold by Chris Stapleton-- Loved it of course, one of my fave songs and singers. He sounded amazing as the song progressed. Reba, Michael, and Snoop turned. Michael said I said to myself Reba is gonna win The Voice with this dude but I gotta turn around and throw my hat into the ring. Snoop said double A r-o-n, join the Snoop D-O double G team. Snoop said he wants that full representation of music and what it means so he wants Aaron on his team. Niall said he regretted not turning. 
Aaron chose Reba (her team is full)


Jerrell Melton sang Go The Distance-- Not loving the song, a little too cheese for me. However, the instrument is tremendous. Wow! Snoop exclaimed magnifico! Snoop said I heard how big your voice is, you sound like Broadway. 
Snoop chose Jerrell 


Elias Gomez sang Lonely Teardrops by Jackie Wilson-- He has that nostalgic throwback voice. I like him, nice falsetto too. Michael turned quick, Niall thought about it and turned, and Snoop turned as well. Michael introduced Elias to Sofronio and said he has one spot left and wants it to be for him. Snoop said you sang that Jackie Wilson song and I had to turn around and see what you look like cause you sound good. And you sound good, look good, and I'd love to have you on my team. Niall said I feel like you could sing anything. 
Elias chose Michael (his team is full)


Alex Brown sang How Can You Mend a Broken Heart by The Bee Gees-- His voice is dreamy. I love his voice and the song choice. Niall and Snoop turned. He has a gorgeous falsetto. He looks like a star. Snoop said you came on sultry, slick, and in pocket. Niall said you had so much control and power but did it so effortlessly. 
Alex chose Niall (his team is full)
