Team Blake:
Kirk Jay and Funsho were the strongest performances by far! I think Natasia Greycloud and Chris Kroeze will duke it out for the final spot.
Michael Lee and Dave Finely are going home.
Team Kelly:
Zaxai, Chevel, and Kymberli are moving on.
The three other member's of Team Kelly had weak performances in comparison.
Abby and Sarah had pitch issues and Keith chose the wrong song-- it's like he wasn't himself.
Team Adam:
DeAndre is as close to a sure thing in this competition that we can get. Reagan and Kameron are moving on.
Steven, Radha, and Tyke are going home.
Team Jennifer:
SandyRedd and Franc are moving on, Colton and Kennedy are fighting it out for the final spot.
I am going to say Patrique and MaKenzie are going home.

The Voice Season 15: The Knockouts Are The Best Thing
Sorry, so last week, I was busy but I did watch all the performances.
Team Adam: Keith Paluso singing You Are the Best Thing by Ray LaMontagne vs. Tyke James singing Ring of Fire by Johnny Cash-- I am usually right in line with how Adam feels about contestants but I honestly thought he should have chosen Keith here, but maybe it's because what he did was so expected and what Tyke did was so unexpected.
Adam chose Tyke, tried to save Keith but Kelly stepped up too and he chose her!
Team Kelly: Kymberli Joye singing The Middle by Zedd and Maren Morris vs. Zaxai singing Cruisin' by Smokey Robinson vs. Natasia Greycloud singing Tennessee Whiskey-- Natasia was the best in this, she was vocally the strongest and had the strongest performance. Zaxai, I would advance based on that stunning falsetto. I was not feeling Kymberli's performance.
Kelly chose Kymberli and Zaxai to move forward. Thank goodness, Blake saved Natasia!
Team Jennifer: MaKenzie Thomas singing How Deep is Your Love by The Bee Gees vs. Mike Parker singing Breakeven by The Script-- I wasn't crazy about either performance.
Jennifer chose MaKenzie
Team Adam: Radha singing I'll Be There by The Jackson 5/ Mariah Carey vs. Reagan Strange singing Dancing on my Own by Robyn-- Reagan won this knockout for me. At points, I didn't like Radha's tone. Adam thought Reagan made a gutsy song choice! I agree! She was so so good. Her voice is mature beyond years.
Adam chose Reagan and saved Radha, a little surprising on the save cause she had some pitch issues for me.
Team Blake: Katrina Cain singing Don't Let Me Down by The Chainsmokers vs. Funsho singing Earned It by The Weeknd-- Funsho by far won this vocal knockout. He sang Earned It so effortlessly. Kelly called Funsho a beast and Adam said he was an exciting performer.
Blake chose Funsho
Team Jennifer: Patrique Fortson singing I Don't Want to Miss a Thing by Aerosmith vs. SandyRedd singing Dangerous Woman by Ariana Grande-- Performance wise, Patrique made the better song choice! Dangerous Woman was an odd song choice for SandyRedd, although she can do no wrong in terms of her vocal ability.
Jennifer chose Patrique and saved SandyRedd
Team Jennifer: Franc West singing Call Out My Name by The Weeknd vs. Tyshawn Colquitt singing Pillowtalk by Zayn-- I actually liked both of these guys. They each offered something different to me yet they are both classic R&B singers. Kelly and Jennifer both commented on Tyshawn's range! Adam said that they are pretty even but Franc might be a little further ahead in artistry. Jennifer said that Franc's voice cuts like a knife.
Jennifer chose Franc
Team Kelly: Claire DeJean singing There's Nothing Holding Me Back by Shawn Mendes vs. Abby Cates singing Because of You by Kelly Clarkson-- Claire has a gorgeous round tone but she was way too breathy throughout this song. This song is hard to sing because there's a lot of words, and it was like she just ran out of air. Abby is not my fave by a long shot but she out-sang Claire.
Kelly chose Abby and comforted a crying Claire
Team Blake: Dave Fenley singing Stuck on You by Lionel Ritchie vs. Kameron Marlowe singing I Shot the Sheriff by Bob Marley-- I thought both of these guys were so creative and original, so dynamic. They definitely both deserved to win. I felt like both of their song choices were not songs I would have expected them to sing.
Blake chose Dave and Adam saved Kameron
Team Kelly: Chevel Shepherd singing Travelin' Soldier vs. Sarah Grace singing I'd Rather Go Blind-- I loved Chevel here, I would definitely go with her. Adam agreed and leaned toward Chevel. Blake felt Sarah hit it out of the park and he would go with her. Kelly liked that they both picked bold and fearless songs.
Kelly chose Chevel and saved Sarah! Kelly kept both of them!
Team Adam: DeAndre Nico singing Wanted by Hunter Hayes vs. Jake Wells singing Yellow by Coldplay-- Jake was so willing to go outside the box on this song. Wow! DeAndre was amazing, I loved his soulful take on Wanted. Blake said his performance was brilliant. Kelly said Jake, I loved how you took a classic and did something rad with it. DeAndre your voice is so powerful. I wish Jake could have stayed also, he is such an artist.
Adam chose DeAndre
Team Jennifer: Anthony Arya singing Operator by Jim Croce vs. Kennedy Holmes singing What About Us by Pink-- Actually loved both of these contestants. Both artist clearly know who they are. Anthony is so defined at such a young age, and Kennedy is so vulnerable. I love that about her. Jennifer had very similar sentiments.
Jennifer chose Kennedy
Team Blake: Kirk Jay singing In Case You Didn't Know vs. Colton Smith singing Lady Marmalade by Patti LaBelle-- These two guys could not be more different than each other. They both are passionate about what they do. Blake said Kirk is so special and to embrace this moment and not be afraid of it.
Blake chose Kirk and Jennifer saved Colton
Team Adam: Delaney Silvernell singing Praying by Kesha vs. Steve Memmolo singing Unaware by Allen Stone-- I liked both of them but I think I would have to give the edge to Steve and I was not even initially a Steve fan. Blake said this is very evenly matched-- Delaney you're one of my favorites, and Steve your overall presence fills the room, vocally you had the edge. Jennifer enjoyed listening to Delaney and it was intriguing watching you Steve, maybe Steve. Kelly thought this was Delaney's best performance so far, and thought Steve's performance was incredible. Adam said he had a tough choice and he said I am going to pick who is ready right now.
Adam chose Steve
Team Blake: Chris Kroeze singing Burning House by Kam vs. Michael Lee singing Whipping Post by The Allman Brothers-- Loved Chris's performance, his vocal was so unique and beautiful. I felt his heart in that. Michael was a beast, his performance was emphatic. Kelly said Michael your tone was incredible. Adam said he would go with Chris. Blake said Chris your voice is ridiculous, your voice is so high and has so much power. Michael, I look a you, and I don't think you're gonna sound like that.
Blake chose Michael and saved Chris! They both deserved to move forward.
Team Adam: Keith Paluso singing You Are the Best Thing by Ray LaMontagne vs. Tyke James singing Ring of Fire by Johnny Cash-- I am usually right in line with how Adam feels about contestants but I honestly thought he should have chosen Keith here, but maybe it's because what he did was so expected and what Tyke did was so unexpected.
Adam chose Tyke, tried to save Keith but Kelly stepped up too and he chose her!

The Voice Season 15: The Battles... Too Close in Some Cases
Team Blake: Keith Paluso vs. Dave Finley singing I'm A One Woman Man by George Jones-- They are well matched. I honestly cannot choose-- Dave and Keith both brought it! Wow, I loved their range, their sheer talent, the vocals had so much swagger. J. Hud said you took us on a journey and you made it work. Kelly said it felt raw and organic, it's just who you are. Adam said I am not gonna say who won because it goes against the spirit of what that was. Keith the fact that you're not country and Kelly thought you were is a testament to you, and Dave you're a badass. No one could choose!
Blake chose Dave! Keith needs to get saved! Yes! Adam saved Keith!
Team Adam: Emily Hough vs. Reagan Strange singing Photograph by Ed Sheeran-- I would give the edge to Reagan. I just loved her tone and intonation. Blake praised both young ladies. J. Hud said Reagan embraced the moment, and Emily you have such a big voice. You sounded amazing together. Kelly said Reagan's voice is like poetry, and she was captivated by Emily. Adam said I am such a big fan of the both of you and this is going to break my heart.
Adam chose Reagan, he said she has this thing about her, I can't explain it, she's just special.
Team Jennifer: Franc West vs. Matt Johnson singing Too Close by Alex Clare-- I was okay with this, I didn't love the song. Matt was smoother, but Franc definitely had a swagger. Adam said he loved both of them but liked Matt's game face. Blake said he would go with Franc. Jennifer said she loved both of them, they each bring something different. She said something about Franc's swagger and how his voice cuts through her like a knife. I knew she was going to pick him.
Jennifer chose Franc
Team Kelly: Abby Cates vs. Delaney Silvernell singing Love Me Like You Do by Ellie Goulding-- Delaney won this by a mile. Her tone is warm and smooth. By contrast, Abby sounded inexperienced, her phrasing was odd. Adam noted Delaney's experience but said he wouldn't choose between them and J. Hud echoed his sentiment. Blake said he would go with Delaney because you can hear the experience in her voice.
Kelly chose Abby and Adam immediately stole Delaney
Team Adam: Foushee vs. Radha singing Growing Pains by Aleesia Cara-- Adam chose Radha
Team Kelly: Mikele Buck vs. Chevel Shepherd singing You Look So Good In Love by George Strait-- Kelly chose Chevel
Team Jennifer: Audri Bartholomew vs. Makenzie Thomas singing Always Be My Baby by Mariah Carey-- Jennifer chose Makenzie
Team Adam: Jake Wells vs. Natalie Brady singing Closing Time by Semisonic-- OMG! Jake is my absolute fave! I love how he performs, I love his voice. He made Natalie better. Their voices blended so well! Blake said Jake, you were a one chair turn, clearly you got away from us. He said he would maybe go with Natalie. Kelly said Jake you look like Brad Pitt meets Kurt Cobain and you're a good singer. Adam thought the version of the song was so special, it seemed like a finale performance.
Adam said I need to choose who spoke to me the most.
Adam chose Jake
Team Jennifer: Tyshawn Colquitt vs. Zaxai singing Love Lies by Khalid and Normani-- I love both of these artists, they are both very different, but both true R&B artists. I love how they took this song and had two guys singing it. The dynamics were incredible! I could not see parting with either one of these guys, too close to call for me. Kelly said she would lean towards Zaxai. Blake said you should go with whoever you blocked Kelly to get.
Jennifer chose Tyshawn, and Kelly needs to steal Zaxai! Yes!!! Kelly saved Zaxai!
Who stood out to me tonight? Jake Wells, Zaxai, Delaney, Tyshawn, Keith and Dave! There were so many great performances tonight. Who did you love? Leave some LOVE in the comments. ;-)

The Voice Season 15: God Bless the Blinds!
One Up sang Could It Be I'm Falling In Love The Spinners-- Adam and Jerome are good together. Adam is definitely the better singer, he's more consistent. Jerome does the highs and lows but he has some pitch issues. Kelly, Jenn, and Blake turn--- all last minute. Kelly is emotional and says love is limitless. Jenn joins them on stage to hug. Blake talks about coaching the Swan Brothers, and Adam endorses Blake.
One Up chose Kelly
Natalie Brady sang Barracuda by Heart--Her voice is killer, she has a genuine rock voice. Adam turned immediately and J. Hud turned towards the end. Adam said you are a phenomenal rock and roll singer, shame on you two for not turning, she is a 4 chair performance. If the Wilson sisters didn't like each other anymore and they needed a singer for Heart they'd call you. J. Hud said your voice is like an oncoming train. Natalie said she has sung on Broadway and she's from Nashville, and has two kids. Blake said shame on Kelly for not turning.
Natalie chose Adam
Hannah Blaylock sang Baby Now That I've Found You by The Foundations -- Wow, she must be nervous because she is super pitchy. No one turned! She was good and she does have tons of potential. Hopefully she will get chosen for the comeback stage.
Mike Parker sang So Sick by Neyo-- I love how Mike persevered, he did not give up in his performance and as a result Jennifer turned at the last minute. She was the only one to turn. Kelly said you have a really great solid voice. Adam said that was one of my favorite moments of today. I have never seen anyone get so excited.
Jennifer chose Mike
Joey Green sang Baba O'Reily by The Who-- Loved his voice and loved his performance. He reminded me of a Billy Joe Armstrong from Green Day. Adam said there was a fearlessness in your voice. Joey said he is a country Americana artist. Blake and Jennifer turned. Blake said I would be honored to be your coach. Jenn said as long as you're passionate about what you're doing that's what matters. I would love to be your coach honey.
Joey chose Blake
Zaxai sang Come and Get Your Love by Redbone-- He has a clear voice, you can hear every word. The other thing I enjoyed about him is that his style is so throwback, he sounds like an old school R&B singer. So good! Kelly said your voice and your runs were so clear and beautiful. Jennifer said you seem like such a performer. He said you guys are my idols and my inspirations. Jennifer and Kelly turned and Jennifer blocked Kelly.
Jennifer chose Zakai
Erika Zade sang New Rules by Dua Lipa-- Not crazy about that performance at all, but I guess Kelly liked it. I just didn't like her rendition of the song, I felt like it was kind of all over the place. Jennifer said she appreciated her attitude but she was waiting for something else.
Kelly chose Erika
Jarred Matthew sang Tired of Being Alone by Al Green-- Jarred works for NASA and he enjoys singing because it makes him happy. His voice is limited, not a lot of range. Blake and Adam turned. I was okay with this, but wasn't feeling it 100%. Adam tells him his falsetto needs work, and he can help him with that.
Jarred chose Adam
Sam Robbins sang Time in a Bottle by Jim Croce-- He did have a beautiful voice! No one turned for him! I think it was too mellow, it didn't go anywhere. However, Sam did make it on Kelsea's comeback stage.
Edited Performances---
Colton Smith sang Alive by Sia-- Jennifer chose Colton
Kaley Hill sang Gold Dust Woman by Fleetwood Mac-- Blake chose Kaley
Finally.....
Kirk Jay sang God Bless the Broken Road by Rascal Flatts-- His voice is so strong and so clear. I was feeling his dynamics! I liked that when he sang, it very much came across that he was going somewhere with it, telling a story. Blake and Adam turned and then Kelly and Jennifer turned at the end. Adam said it sounded like Cee Lo Green singing a country song. Blake said I never thought of that and he went up and hugged Kirk. Adam said if you don't come to my team, I hope you go to Blake's team. Kirk said he is country til the day he dies. Kelly said he also had a Boyz II Men and Brian McKnight vibe. Adam said for the first time, I wanna see you on Blake's team. Blake said I just kissed Adam Levine. Jennifer said go with your heart honey.
Kirk said he definitely picks Blake
Mike Parker strikes me as a hard worker, he could be a dark horse in this competition.
And I loved Zaxai, Joey Green, and Kirk Jay-- they could all go far in this!
One Up chose Kelly
