Claire DeJean sang Hurt Somebody by Noah Kalan and Julia Michaels-- Props to Blake and Kelly for turning. Claire seemed shaky several times during her audition but one thing she does have, is tons of potential. I could really see her growing in this competition with the right coach. To be honest, Blake or Kelly would really suit her.
Claire chose Kelly
Franc West sang Sittin' on the Dock of the Bay by Otis Redding-- Franc's voice is very bluesy and soulful. Blake's thoughts were correct-- he sounds like he has an accomplished and experienced voice. Adam asked Jennifer what was going through her head and why she turned. She said the smokiness and the rasp in his voice, and then when she turned around he had a look of his own. This was definitely a good choice!
Jennifer chose Franc
Michael Lee sang The Thrill is Gone by B.B. King-- Michael is singing one of my personal favorite songs! I am a HUGE B.B. King fan. Him singing that song the way he did, and playing the way he did, is unexpected. He will stand out on this show, and especially if this is the direction he wants to go in. Adam turned first, followed by J. Hud who threw her shoe, and Blake turned at the last minute. Kelly was immediately regretful that she did not turn, especially when she found out he was from Texas. She said, "oh you're bad". Blake said this would be a match made in heaven, you deserved all the button pushes you could get. Adam said the song choice says a lot about what kind of artist you want to be.
Michael chose Blake
Ele Ivory did not get a chair turn but she did get chosen for Kelsea's comeback team
DeAndre Nico sang When I Was Your Man by Bruno Mars-- DeAndre has an undoubtedly strong voice, but then there is a tender part along with an amazing falsetto. I think that's what got Blake to turn at the end. Adam turned first, way before everyone else! J Hud turned, then Blake, and Kelly came in right at the end. Adam said I heard the greatness early, I pressed like a minute before everyone else, you're amazing, and now that they've made it personal, I am going to fight even harder. Kelly said I loved the big beautiful notes you were hitting. J Hud said she loved the range, the way his voice soars, the depth, the soul, and his look. DeAndre said, what you got to say Blake? Blake said you have so much skill, and you could go with any of these other people, or you could go with the winningest coach in Voice History.
DeAndre chose Adam
These 4 contestants are all potential underdogs in this competition. I can see them flying under the radar to the live shows if they all work hard and do their homework.
