The Voice Season 11: The Knockouts Are Show-Stopping

Team Blake: Bindi Liebowitz singing  vs. Courtney Harrell singing River Deep Mountain High by Tina Turner-- I was impressed with Courtney, there literally seemed to be no limit to her voice. She belted the entire way through yet never sounded out of breath. There was tons of passion in her performance, I believed her. Bindi was good, I love her rasp and growl but for some reason, I didn't believe her. Adam said Bindi has confidence and that's what makes her great. Courtney you should never be singing backup for anyone again. Alicia thought Courtney grabbed this because she showed a little more than Bindi did. Blake said Courtney is going to be a problem for these other teams.
Blake chose Courtney

Team Adam: Billy Gilman singing Fight Song by Rachel Platten vs. Ponceano Seone singing I See Fire by Ed Sheeran-- Ponciano may have had his best performance ever, but it seems like Billy can't stop, his performance was so natural and organic. Ponceano was a little lost in the performance and found his way at the end but it was a little bit too late. Everyone seemed to feel like Billy's voice was amazing and I agree.
Adam chose Billy

Team Alicia: Belle Jewel singing Don't Dream It's Over by Crowded House vs. Christian Cuevas singing Superstar by Luther Vandross-- Belle's performance had a whimsical quality to it. I felt like it was her best to date. I feel like Christian listened to the coaches critiques including Faith and Tim. Miley likes that Belle knows who she is, and felt like Christian was singing to her . Adam said he is obsessed with Christian's voice. Blake said he is mad that Alicia put them together because he likes both of them. Alicia said I love your voice Belle. Christian you worked hard for this.
Alicia chose Christian and Miley stole Belle

The Last of the Battles on The Voice Season 11

Team Blake: Austin Allsup vs. Preston James singing Bad Moon Rising by Creedence Clearwater-- Preston was a good competitor but Austin has experience that can't be taught. I would definitely pick him. Alicia said she would go with Preston. Miley didn't know who she would pick, and Adam liked both of them.
Blake chose Austin

Team Alicia: Gabriel Violett vs. Whitney and Shannon singing More Than Words by Extreme-- I actually felt like in this battle, Gabriel was the stronger performer and voice. I didn't love the sisters, I felt like there were some pitch issues Blake said he didn't feel Gabriel got credit for his vocal range. I couldn't agree more.
Alicia chose Whitney and Shannon

Team Adam: Bindi Liebowitz vs, Brendan Fletcher singing Home by Marc Broussard-- I agree with Adam's assessment and Blake's actions. Bindi and Brendan were well matched and Adam made the amazing point that a female vocalist doesn't have to have range to be good. He compares her to Rihanna and said Brendan's vocal was like thunder. Blake agrees.
Adam chose Brendan and Blake stole Bindi

The Voice Season 11: Blind Auditions Continue to Impress

Bindi Liebowitz sang Bust Your Windows by Jazmine Sullivan-- Adam turned first followed by Blake. Bindi has a raspy voice with a lot of character in it. Adam said you made some amazing choices and I literally love you, I need you on my team. Blake says if she chooses him as her coach because he will protect her being that she is the only one like her on his team.
Bindi chose Adam

Zach Hicks sang At This Moment

Elia Esparza sang Como La Flor by Selena-- I loved Elia's voice. She is one of those artists I see growing a lot in this competition and getting better. I can see Adam doing a lot of things with her. Adam turned first, then Blake and Miley. Elia ended up choosing Adam because he turned first and she likes how he really listens to the people on his team.
Elia chose Adam

Lane Mack sang Every Day I Have the Blues by BB King-- Miley turned first and was the only one to turn. She said Lane is stuck with her. He does have a great blues voice. Miley said she was picturing him as very much in the style of a Jeff Buckley.
Miley chose Lane

Karlee Metzger sang Samson by Regina Spektor-- Blake and Miley turned at the last minute. Miley felt like she really had a connection with Karlee. Blake loved her full voice. Alicia added that she loved Karlee's song choice. She has a really sweet voice, and it had a lot of feeling and vulnerability.
Karlee chose Miley

Josh Halverson sang Forever Young by Bob Dylan-- I think this was my favorite artist of the night. I loved this, and I did get very caught up in the performance. Miley, Blake, and Alicia turned. I feel like this definitely should have been a four chair turn. Alicia said his voice is striking and she knows what good music should sound like. Blake said I felt some sort of kinship to your voice, and I would love to be your coach. Miley said let's sit down and you can play the guitar and I'll sing.
