Team Reba: Aaron Nichols sang Beer Never Broke My Heart by Luke Combs-- I could see him on the stage and hear him on the radio right now. This song was so perfect for him.
Team Michael: Jazz McKenzie sang Don't Stop Believing by Journey-- The coaches were all loving this and I was not a fan. She sounded off in my opinion. Voice did not come through as well as I think they thought it did. I'd send her packing.
Team Reba: Ryan Mitchell sang Undressed by Sombr-- I dig that he chose Sombr but I think he should have done Back to Friends. He has the store power to move forward but I don't think Reba will choose him outright. He could get voted through by the public. Reba loved what he brought and said she is so proud of him.
Team Michael: Trinity sang Barracuda by Heart-- Love how she is always bringing a different side or piece of herself. This was risky-- I hope it pays off for her in the best way cause I am a big fan. She has an amazing voice, the last 30 seconds was, wow! Snoop said she just moved up in my book.
Team Reba: Aubrey Nicole sang Black Velvet by Alannah Myles-- Aubrey has grown in each round. She's a start in my opinion. I loved the sultriness and smokiness in her voice; it reminded me a little bit of Leann Rimes. Reba said, wow! Niall said no doubt you deserve a place in the finale; you showed us another side of you that we haven't seen before. There's something special about you. Reba called her the perfect package.
Team Michael: Rob Cole sang I Hope You Dance by Lee Ann Womack-- Loved how Rob made the song his own because it's so well known. Reba said he touched her and he took a sweet song and made it better. Snoop said I'm sweet on you, you have superstar potential.
Team Reba: Peyton Kyle sang Hold Back the River by James Bay-- I loved his confidence and how as he sang he walked up the stage closer. What a phenomenal vocal. Snoop said the way you took your time and worked it. I'd listen to your music. Reba said you give a lot in rehearsals, but you give even more when you get on the stage.
Team Michael: Max Chambers sang A Change is Gonna Come by Sam Cooke-- I loved it and it was definitely an inspired performance. I wanted a little more. I think I wanted to hear more passion when he says the "back down to my knees". Snoop said, that's the winner of The Voice.
Michael chose Jazz, she's probably the only person on his team that I would not have picked. So I am really confused, but it was his choice. I would have chosen in order-- Trinity, Rob, Max, Jazz.
Reba chose Aubrey, anyone she chose would have been a good choice. In order I would have picked Peyton, Aubrey or Aaron, and Ryan.
Team Reba: Conrad Khalil sang Closer by Neyo vs. Ryan Mitchell sang Zombie by The Cranberries-- I liked Ryan's performance but I think he could have chosen a better song to showcase his rock voice. He should have done like In My Hands by Fuel. Okay, so for me, I am loving Conrad's performance. I'd need to go with him. He told a story with his version of Closer. Michael said he would lean with Ryan. Snoop said both were great and it depends on what you're looking for-- R&B is Conrad and rock/ alternative is Ryan. Niall said Conrad reminds him of all the singers in R&B he listened to growing up. Ryan you have grown immensely. Reba chose Ryan
Team Michael: Rob Cole sang Wondering Why by The Red Clay Strays vs. Marty O'Reilly sang The Letter by Joe Cocker-- Loved Rob's performance, that was so strong yet gentle. I think Rob could win The Voice. Marty's voice has all the growl and rasp. Like Zac Brown said, it sounds like he sings from a place of pain. Snoop said ain't nothing but the dog in you. Rob, the way you started on the piano, you're a superstar. Niall said neither one of them should be going home. Reba said Marty channeled Joe. Michael chose Rob
Lightning Round:
Team Michael: Trinity sang I'm Your Baby Tonight by Whitney Houston vs. Jack Austin sang -- Michael chose Trinity
Team Niall: Dek of Hearts sang What If I Never Get Over You by Lady A vs. Kayleigh Clark sang Blue by Leann Rimes-- Wow! Dek of Hearts was so good, I loved the dynamics in their performance and the harmonies. Kayleigh's performance was so inspired, and I love how she made Blue her own. Snoop said Dek of Hearts when you all sing together, magic. He loved Kayleigh's yodeling. Niall said Kayleigh, you took all of Joe's notes, and Dek of Hearts it's so rare that all people in the group can sing. Niall chose Dek of Hearts and used his Mic Drop on them
The new twist: the artists have to pick their own battle partners.
Snoop's advisor is Lizzo, Reba's is Nick Jonas, Michael's is Kelsea Ballerini, and Niall's is Lewis Capaldi
Team Snoop: Yoshihanna vs. Natalia Albertini sang You Make Me Feel (Like a Natural Woman) by Aretha Franklin-- I did not care for Yoshihanna in the blinds, but she proved her worth here. She sounded strong. Reba said I thought you were Aretha Franklin standing up there Yoshihanna. Michael said he would go with Natalia. Snoop said I can only keep one of you, my heart is broken. Snoop chose Yoshihanna and saved Natalia
Team Reba: Aaron Nichols vs. Daron Lameek sang Fooled Around and Fell in Love by Elvin Bishop-- This was an interesting pairing, they could not be more different butt were well matched. Michael said Daron respected the song but took it and made it his. He might choose him. Snoop liked both of them, he said I liked him, but I liked how he sounded too, and I didn't tell you who he is. Niall said Daron was effortless and he leans towards him. Reba chose Aaron
Team Michael: Jazz McKenzie vs. Trinity sang Virtual Insanity by Jamiroquai-- My preference here was Trinity. I loved how sharp her vocal and performance was. Snoop said this was great showmanship. Niall said you two brought a different league. Reba said if it was a run, you both tied. Everyone vocalized that they would steal. Michael said Trinity love the jazz in your voice, and Jazz your vocal was powerful. Michael chose Jazz, Trinity was saved by Michael and stolen by all three coaches. Trinity chose to stay on Team Michael
Team Niall: Revel Day vs. Dustin Dale Gaspard sang Too Sweet by Hozier-- I love Dustin! Reba said Dustin you were raw but refined. Michael said, Dustin our hair is so different but our arms are the same. Revel you were so soulful and I'd pick you because of how you managed to sing out of the box. Snoop said Revel, your performance allowed Dustin to show us so many voices. Niall chose Dustin
Team Snoop: Kanard Thomas vs. Kenny Iko sang All The Things (Your Man Won't Do)-- I think this is my fave performance of the night, so well matched and felt like a duet. Snoop should have saved his save for them!!! All the coaches were on their feet. Niall said it just got a bit warmer in the studio. Kanard there is something nostalgic in your voice. Kenny your performance value is great. Reba said dope and fire, I don't know who you're gonna choose, Snoop. Snoop said, Kanard you delivered with your upper register, Kenny said you stayed in your lower register and went to the falsetto when you needed to. Snoop chose Kenny
Team Michael: Austin Gilbert vs. Rob Cole sang Honeybee by Blake Shelton-- Both of these guys are so good and tie for my fave performance of the night. I love the song, and I loved how both of them made it their own. Snoop said I felt Blake's spirit. He loved Austin's energy, but would choose Rob for vocals. Michael said Austin's voice was sweet, and he loved Rob's performance. Michael chose Rob, Reba stole Austin
Night 2:
Team Reba: Ryan Mitchell vs. Letter to Elise sang Don't You Forget About Me by Simple Minds-- That was an awesome battle, loved the song choice and how their voices blended. Snoop said I loved the harmonies, Ryan you're a superstar. Niall said that was unexpected and perfect. Niall said I would lean towards Ryan personally. Michael said Letter to Elise your interpretation was imaginative, and Ryan you keep getting better. You remind me of the lead singer from INXS, you have so much charisma. Reba said if you have more fun it will be more fun for the audience, and you did that. Reba chose Ryan
Team Snoop: Toni Lorene vs. Sadie Dahl sang Love On The Brain by Rihanna-- This was a well matched battle. I love both of these ladies. I was not a fan of Toni's in the blinds but she made a believer out of me. Sadie, I have loved since day one, she is greatness. I love how she emotes. Snoop loved both of them and asked why they picked each other. Snoop chose Toni, and Niall stole Sadie
Team Michael: Lucas Beltran vs. Max Cooper III sang It's a Beautiful Day by Michael Buble-- This is awesome, loved the arrangement. Snoop is standing up! They both have great voices. I hope they both get to move forward. Niall was standing and loved it as well. Reba is smiling from ear to ear. And all the coaches are on their feet. Peruvian Lou and Super Max Cooper, sang with energy and pizzazz. Niall loved the arrangement, Max you impressed me and your vocal range is crazy. Lucas I'd sit down and listen to you in a bar and order a dirty martini. Michael said Lucas, you're 19 years old, and Max you can sing anything. Michael chose Max but said he is gonna be there for Lucas
Team Niall: Kayleigh Clark vs. Camille Tredoux sang Cowboys Cry Too by Kelsea Ballerini and Noah Kahan-- To me I gave Camille the edge going into battles but Kayleigh is a superstar in my opinion. She should be making records right now. Reba loved Camille's voice, it reminded her of Stevie Nicks. She said Kayleigh's voice reminded her of Miranda Lambert and Carrie Underwood. Michael said the way Camille took on the song is a testament to the artist she is. He would give the edge to Kayleigh. Snoop said Kayleigh sang the song like it was hers. Niall said Camille's tone was perfect, and Kayleigh did sing the song like it was hers. Niall chose Kayleigh
Team Niall Lightning round Alex Brown vs. Liam Von Elbe sang Linger by The Cranberries-- Niall chose Liam
Team Michael: Marty O'Reilly vs. Carly Harvey sang At This Moment-- Snoop said I need a beer, that was an unexpected duet that I needed. Niall said Marty you did such a good job hanging with Carly. He liked Marty's storyteller voice but said Carly has one of the strongest vocals in the competition. Reba enjoyed both but would choose Marty. Michael chose Marty
Team Reba: Aubrey Nicole vs. Cori Kennedy sang Something Bad by Miranda Lambert and Carrie Underwood-- Wow they were both dynamite. That felt like a duet. Michael said if I could be anyone, I'd be Reba McEntire. He said Cori you crushed and Aubrey that was awesome. Snoop said Reba has a way of seeing talent in people and then showing the other coaches how good they are. Snoop said y'all made something bad something good. He said that's sisterhood and that's love. He leaned with Cori. Niall said that was a real battle, and he would lean with Cori. Reba chose Cori, saved Aubrey and Snoop came in and tried to steal. Aubrey chose to stay with Reba.

**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.

Snoop said I could tell that you were a performer and you sang that song like it was yours.

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.

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.

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.
