The Voice Season 13: Mercy Me, It's the Knockouts!

Team Blake-- Esera Tuaolo singing Superstar by Leon Russell vs. Adam Cunningham singing Either Way by Chris Stapleton-- Jen said Esera you captured the moment, Adam you captivated me, and that felt like your song. Miley said the simplicity of your performance Adam was beautiful, you made it about your voice. Adam said Adam you won for your fans and Esera you made everyone, a fan or not, tune into you. Both of these artists are so incredible, and both so worthy of moving forward. Jen is right, Adam is absolutely captivating. Esera has that big, beautiful, powerful voice!
Blake chose Esera and Adam stole Adam!

Team Jennifer-- Lucas Holliday singing Tell It Like It Is by Aaron Neville vs. Shi'Ann singing Who's Loving You by Michael Jackson-- Miley said she loves Lucas but Shi'Ann won the knockout. Adam said Lucas is a freak and he only likes freaks. Blake felt Shi'Ann's vocal was very controlled and didn't think Lucas was as much.
Jennifer chose Shi'Ann

Team Adam-- Addison Agen singing Beneath Your Beautiful by Labrinth vs. Dennis Drummond singing All Along the Watchtower by Jimi Hendrix-- I am a fan of Addison's voice, but that song did nothing for her. It just wasn't a great choice. Already Dennis is my choice, he has rasp and authenticity in his voice. He knows who he wants to be as an artist. His guitar playing was great. Blake felt vocally Addison took that. Jennifer said Addison your voice sings that song, and Dennis your presence onstage is amazing. Miley said don't stop singing Addison, and Dennis you're the whole package, sick guitar player. Adam said you play the guitar from the heart Dennis, you're really talented. Addison, when you sing it feels like everything is going to be okay.
Adam chose Addison

Team Miley-- Janice Freeman singing I'm Goin' Down by Mary J. Blige vs. Karli Webster singing Blue Bayou by Linda Ronstadt-- Karli's voice sounded stunning. She has such a beautiful and distinct tone to her voice, and she seemed connected to the song.  Janice sang her heart out on that song. What a raw performance! Adam said I'm in love with both of you, Janice, you tell a story. Blake said you are both at the top of your game in your respective lanes. Jennifer said you both held your own. Miley said she is proud to be their coach.
Miley chose Janice

Team Jennifer: Davon Fleming singing I Can Only Imagine by MercyMe vs. Eric Lyn singing What's Goin' On by Marvin Gaye-- Eric's rendition of the song is jazz perfection, it's very styled from top to bottom. It's pleasing and impressive to listen to. Davon brought me somewhere else, his voice was just heaven sent. Adam said Davon you make me feel bad about myself, and Eric you're like another creature, I feel like you could lift off and fly away. Blake said I felt like I needed to hide my drink cause I was at church, you transformed the room. Jen said I take my hat off to both of you, you're both extremely gifted.
Jennifer chose Davon

Team Miley: Ashland Craft singing Wanted Dead or Alive by Bon Jovi vs. Chloe Kohanski singing Landslide by Fleetwood Mac-- Ashland is singing one of my fave ever songs. Of course, she put a feminine spin on it. She made it fierce. Chloe's performance was a little sleepy, but I thought the song choice was powerful. Blake said Ashland that was another pitch perfect performance, and Chloe, you're definitely connected to that song.
Miley chose Ashland and Jennifer and Blake stole Chloe.... Chloe chose Blake

I am looking out for Adam Cunningham, Janice Freeman, Davon Fleming, and Ashland Craft ;-)

The Voice Season 13: Mr. Jones LOVES the Battle Rounds

Team Jennifer: Davon Fleming vs. Maharasyi singing I'm Your Baby Tonight by Whitney Houston-- Both of them put on A+ performances. I would go with Davon, he was sharp, and I loved his attitude and his soul. Adam said, Davon I wanted you on my team and you were fierce. Maharasyi, you have an incredible voice. Blake said although Davon was a 4 chair turn, but Maharasyi you lived up to his level in that performance and that's a credit to you and your coach. 

Jen chose Davon

Team Adam: Brandon Showell vs. Hannah Mrozak singing Cold Water by Major Lazer-- Both sang well, they blended together, and complimented each other. I'd lean towards Brandon but I think both of them are great and deserve to move forward. Adam said I have grown to love Brandon as a person and as a talent. Hannah, you're powerful and committed.  Both of you did exactly as you were supposed to do. Blake said that they were well matched and kept one upping each other. 

Adam chose Hannah

Battles! Lightning Style!

Team Adam: Dave Crosby vs. Dylan Gerard singing Doctor My Eyes by Jackson Browne-- Adam chose Dylan

Team Blake: Esera Tualo vs. Rebecca Brunner singing This I Promise You by NSYNC-- Blake chose Esera

Team Miley: Chloe Kohanski vs. Illianna Viramontes singing I Am Woman by Helen Reddy-- Miley chose Chloe

Team Blake: Dennis Drummond vs. Mitchell Lee singing Mr. Jones by Counting Crows-- Jen said you guys are so amazing and captivating to watch. I wanna come to your concert. Both of you are stars. Miley said Mitchell your voice is so pitch perfect. Dennis your footwork is crazy and you're a great performer. Adam said you're both so awesome. Mitchell you sound like the original guy who sang this record and you're more in Blake's wheelhouse but Dennis there's something so special about you. 

Blake chose Mitchell and Adam stole Dennis 

 I'm looking out for Mitchell and Dennis, Esera and Davon are dark horses in this competition 

The Blinds Continue: Season 13, Teams Almost Full!

Chloe Kohanski sang The Chain by Fleetwood Mac-- I actually loved her song choice and her voice was killer. She has that thick, raspy voice, it sounded so full. Blake and Miley turned, followed by Jen. Blake said you have a rock and roll voice, you sound unique and I'd love to have you on my team so bad. Miley said you really know who you are. Jenn said this is about owning your own voice. The coaches are really going at it for her!
Chloe chose Miley

Olivia Kay sang Ghost by Ella Henderson-- no one turned, her voice

Dennis Drummond sang She Talks to Angels by The Black Crows-- Adam and Blake turned around, Adam said this knit-wit turned around and now it's an old school battle. Blake said I like the fact that different genres are coming to Nashville. He said you have a deep growly rock and roll voice.. Adam said I think we're dynamic enough to work with anybody.
Dennis chose Blake

Ignatious Carmouche sang Latch by Disclosure and Sam Smith-- I am not digging the arrangement of the song but I think Ignatious has a killer voice. He has a strong range. Jen looked like she was about to cry. Ignatious said he was singing to Jen's heart.
Ignatious chose Jennifer

Rebecca Brunner sang Believer by Imagine Dragons-- Liked her voice, but the song seemed wrong all together. Blake turned at the last minute and she is lucky he saw some potential in her despite a poor song choice. Blake chose Rebecca

Brandon Brown sang Georgia on My Mind by Ray Charles-- Wow, everyone except Miley turned. This seemed 4 chair turn worthy to me. Adam thought the song was sung with subtlety, nuance, and soul. Jenn Hudson said she hear Donny Hathaway in his voice. Jenn said Adam lays across the chair and begs and Blake points to himself. Blake thought he sounded like Willie Nelson. I don't see what Blake is saying. I do love what Adam said about him having that nuance and soul in his voice.
Brandon chose Adam

Nathan Grahan-- no one turned

Whitney Fenimore sang Hold On We're Going Home by Drake-- I could see Adam thinking when she was singing because it reminded him of Christina Grimmie. Miley and Adam ended up turning. Miley made her all girl team pitch. Adam said that it made him smile to hear her singing that song like that. Whitney has a unique voice, it will be interesting to see where she takes this. Inspired by Songs About Jane.....
Whitney chose Adam

Ilianna Viramontes sang New Soul by Yael Naim-- Her voice cracked at a few points, but I think she is definitely coachable and has some good quirks in her voice. Miley and Blake turned. Blake said I love your voice, and I see how excited you were to see Miley. I love how you navigated the melody with perfect pitch. Adam actually thinks she will be popular on the show. Miley said if you were trapped in a box, who would you want to be trapped in a box with?
Ilianna chose Miley

Katrina Rose went to Team Miley
Natalie Stovall went to Team Blake
Ryan Scripps went to Team Blake

Meagan McNeal sang I Can't Feel my Face by The Weeknd-- Jenn was the only one who turned. Meagan is from Chicago, this is a perfect match! Meagan is a unique creature, her voice is different, her look is different. I love her vibe and how she just changed up the whole song.

Jon Mero sang Versace on the Floor by Bruno Mars-- 4 chair turn and this was a worthy one too! Wow, I loved his voice and his performance. His personality came through so well. Jenn said I felt like I was at your show. Miley said are you wearing bedazzled denim? I am too! Adam said you remind me of Prince. This is a step on the never ending staircase of your career. Jenn liked to see people own their moment. Blake said if I would have done some of those moves you did, I would have hyper extended my knee. I hit my button because you're an incredible singer.
Jon chose Adam

Who do I think is going far? Jon, Chloe, and Whitney
