Team Queen: Alt Bloom vs. Morgan Lett singing Ex Factor by Lauryn Hill-- For me Alt is the surprise. I fully expected Morgan to do this song justice, but it was a real collaboration and they supported each other. I loved their voices in unison. There was something so earthy and grounded about Alt's performance. They just brought it on a Lauryn Hill song, wow! Kelly said I was worried for you, but that was so good. Riley said she might have to flip a coin on this one. Kelly said Morgan you honored that song; Alt, I was like this might be how Adam would sound on this song. You were the surprise for me. I'd lean towards Alt. Adam said Morgan you sang the s*** out of that, Alt, I have range, but you've got range where I was like damn. Queen said no one has done that arrangement of this song before and apparently both contestants came up with it. Queen chose Alt.
Alex Warren is the Advisor for Team Adam which is so cool!
Team Adam: Cal Cook vs. Connor Closs sang Homewrecker by Sombr-- Enjoyed that performance. I love that song. The energy was awesome. I don't know who I would pick. Kelly liked how Cal started high and went into his chest voice. She loved Connor's runs. Riley said it seemed like the two of them have been buddies forever, and it made the performance great. Queen said Connor, your runs were great, and Cal you were in it from the beginning. Adam said these are two stellar human beings, incredible singers, and hard workers. Adam chose Connor.
Carly Pearce is the advisor for Team Riley.
Team Riley: Joe Henley vs. Kenna Elpers sang Don't Mind If I Do by Riley Green and Carly Pearce-- Okay, I thought this was the perfect song choice for them. To me, at the age of 19, what Joe has is so special and just a gift. I would need to go with him. Kelly said Kenna had a beautiful vibrato. Kelly thinks Joe has the Randy Travis effect. Adam said Joe, you have one of my favorite voices in the competition. He echoed that it was the perfect song choice. Riley said, Joe what you have is God-given. Kenna, Joe could not have done what he did without you. Queen leaned with Joe. Riley chose Joe.
Ariana DeBose is Kelly's advisor.
Team Kelly: Lance Tenazas vs. Koumba Diallo sang Birds of a Feather by Billie Eilish-- I loved how this sounded like a true collab, but I would need to lean with Koumba. Her poise and maturity is far beyond what it should be. Adam said Koumba said you're 15? How? You have so much power and presence. Lance, this was a much better performance for you than the blinds. Queen said she closed her eyes for a moment. Riley said Lance held his own against Koumba who is one of the best performers and voices on the show. Kelly said Koumba is so impressive. She loved Lance's tone and his runs. Ultimately she chose Koumba.
Team Riley: Everett Bounds vs. Caroline Alexis sang Lousiana Woman, Mississippi Man by Conway Twitty and Loretta Lynn-- I loved both of them more here than in their blind auditions. I was just intrigued, and their performance felt so real. Kelly said that felt so fun, like a throwback. This was evenly matched. Adam felt like he enjoyed it, it was a great partnership. Queen said you brought all of us into your world. Riley said, Caroline you laid into the performance and it was sassy. Everett you did exactly what I asked you to do. Riley chose Everett.
Patti LaBelle is Queen's advisor.
Team Queen: Kayleigh Mathew vs. Lillie Kolich sang Girl Crush by Little Big Town-- Closely matched-- they are both just stellar vocalists. Queen's team is truly stacked. I think Kayleigh, without question, has so much power. Lillie seems to strive to be unique and she pushes the boundaries and steps out of her comfort zone or does whatever she needs to, to do it. Riley said Kayleigh that was awesome, Lillie you did a lot of unique stuff with your voice. Kelly said that was so gorgeous. Kayleigh you have a huge presence, Lillie the way you did "maybe" broke me. That was breathtaking. Adam said you're both so different. Queen said I feel honored to have been here to witness that. Queen said Kayleigh you made this your own, and you were in the pocket whereas Lillie you were right behind it, but you made it work. Queen chose Lillie. Kelly and Riley pushed to steal Kayleigh. Riley said the reason Kelly and Adam are saying that they don't want you to be on my team is because they know we're gonna win The Voice together. Kayleigh chose Riley!
