The Battles!
Battle advisors-- Blake had Bebe Rexha, Kelly had Dua Lipa, Nick had his two brothers Joe and Kevin Jonas, and John had Ella Mai
Team Blake: Joei Fulco vs. Todd Michael Hall sang The Best by Tina Turner-- The song was super cheese, but these two both have great vocals. Todd is probably one of my fave contestants from this season. Todd has an impressive voice, he sang the high harmony on this. Joei is great too. Blake picked Joei and saved Todd.
The spin on this season is that the 4 saves (1 from each team) will compete against each other and the fans will vote one through to the lives.
Team Kelly: Chelle vs. Anaya Cheyenne sang Scared to be Lonely by Dua Lipa-- The song is a bit mature being that they are both so young. However, it showed how advanced Anaya is, she did a great job with this song. Anaya has a mature voice, she reminds me a little bit of Normani.
Kelly chose Anaya
Team Nick: Joanna Serenko vs. Roderick Chambers sang When the Party's Over by Billie Eilish-- Definitely the battle of the night. This was amazing, and I am so glad that both of them got picked; however, I am so shocked that Nick did not save Joanna. Joanna was a four chair turn and she was amazing. Her vocals are always stunning, and she really pushes whoever she is singing with to come up to her level. Roderick is a surprise! I definitely did not expect him to be at that level, but I think he studied hard and Joanna brought out amazing things from him. I also have to give props to Nick because the arrangement was gorgeous and helped them to compliment each other. Nick chose Roderick and John stole Joanna
Team John: Mike Jerel vs. Zach Day sang Adorn by Miguel-- I loved this as well! It didn't feel like a battle, it felt like a duet which was the beautiful thing about it. They supported one another and pushed each other, and both of them, as Nick said, were so confident. Kelly said Zach, I don't expect the sound to come out of you, and Mike you're fearless. Blake said you have to go with who is more in the lane that you want to go with your team. John chose Mike
Team Blake: Jamal Corrie vs. Levi Watkins sang Counting Stars by One Republic-- I wasn't too crazy about song selection here. They were well matched but I thought the performance lacked connection to the song. Blake chose Levi
Team Nick: Allegra Miles vs. Michael Williams sang How Will I Know by Whitney Houston-- I was obsessed with the arrangement on this. Nick did a great job. You can tell Michael definitely worked hard on cleaning things up a little bit and being more precise with his vocals. Allegra's tone is ridiculous; she is so unique. These two clearly formed a bond, a friendship; even the phrasing in this performance is simply so cool. Kelly said Michael you came in strong, you have a magnificent voice. Allegra, I am in love with your voice, said Kelly. Blake said congratulations on a killer performance. Michael you're a great singer, and Allegra not often someone like you comes along. John said I got some Nick vibes from you Michael, and Allegra the singers who really connect in this world have special tones like yours. Nick chose Allegra and saved Michael
Oh my gosh! Faves of the night-- Allegra, Michael, Joanna, and Roderick
Honorable mention to Mike J. and Zach
