The Voice Season 26: These are some "angelic" knockouts...

Team Reba: 

Danny Joseph sang It Hurt so Bad by Susan Tedeschi-- This was amazing! I loved all the emotion and soul and blues he put into this performance. 

Lauren Michael Sellers sang Hold On To Me by Lauren Daigle-- Lauren sounds amazing with every song she interprets. 

Tate Renner sang In Color by Jamey Johnson-- Tate is a natural storyteller. There was also a little bit of gravel in his voice that I liked. 

Michael and Snoop turned for all three and wanted them on their teams. Gwen said she would pick Lauren, but also liked Danny. Reba is proud of all three. She picked Lauren and saved Danny, Snoop wanted to steal Danny. 



Team Gwen:

Mor left the competition. 

Jan Dan sang Angels Like You by Miley Cyrus-- I had actually never heard this song, it was perfect for him. 

Sydney Sterlace sang Bruises by Lewis Capaldi-- Sydney is just mature beyond her years, I love the way she expresses herself and emotes with every song she sings. 

Snoop said they both picked the perfect songs for their voices. He said Sydney you could win the show. Reba said she has been a fan of Jan's voice for a long time. She said Sydney I don't believe you are 15 years old. Gwen liked how Jan Dan puts R&B spins on current songs. She said, Sydney you are so gifted and you've grown. Gwen chose Sydney. Jan said, Gwen, I have loved being on your team, Sydney's voice blows my mind. As he was about to walk out, he hugged Gwen and she pushed her button to save!




Somewhat montaged-- 

Team Snoop:

Georgia Starnes sang Parachute by Chris Stapleton-- 

Mary McAvoy sang High and Dry by Radiohead-- 

Aliyah Khaylyn sang Angel by Halle Bailey-- 

Snoop chose Aliyah, she was the right choice here! She is also someone I believe could win the competition. 




Team Snoop: 

ChrisDeo sang Beneath Your Beautiful by Labrinth-- ChrisDeo has such a sweet voice. She has grown since the beginning and has so much confidence. 

Mikaela Ayira sang Scars to your Beautiful by Alessia Cara-- I love Mikaela's attitude, it really came through in her performance. You could tell she is connected to the message of the song. Also loved her dynamics in the song. 

Torre Blake sang Slow Burn by Kacey Musgraves-- At times. Torre was giving me an Alicia Keys vibe. I loved this song for her and the soul that she breathed into it. 

Reba called ChrisDeo so sweet and said she would choose her. Gwen loved Torre as a fan, Mikaela worked the stage, ChrisDeo is a pure real deal artist. Snoop I don't gotta choose. Michael said I love that my girls are gonna watch this show and see strong, powerful women. Snoop said I am so torn, I loved each and every one of you. I wish all three. of you could move forward. I am honored to have been your coach, you have affected me for the rest of my life. Snoop chose Mikaela. ChrisDeo was crying as she thanked Snoop for giving her confidence that she never had before. It was beautiful to see how moved Snoop was. 



Team Buble:

Jeremy Belate sang Golden Hour by JVKE-- This was amazing! The high notes were unreal and the way he sang it, it felt like a love letter. 

Kiara Vega sang Call Out My Name by The Weeknd-- She made me feel everything in this song. I loved how she grabbed this and felt it. 

Sofronio Vasquez sang You Don't Have To Say You Love Me by Dusty Springfield-- Sofronio turned this into a soulful power ballad. This was amazing. The end. 

Michael said, I made a big mistake, I never should have put these people together. Snoop said, Sofronio I always love you even though you didn't pick me. Kiara you put a chill down my back. Jeremy you gave the best performance to me. If Buble slip up, I'll steal you. Reba said Sofronio your stage presence is incredible and your voice. Gwen would choose Jeremy, she said she had chills. Michael said, Sofronio, Jennifer threw her shoes at you. Kiara, you remind me of Ariana, you are both small but you both pack a punch. Jeremy you killed it man, I am so proud of you.  Michael chose Sofronio and Snoop stole Jeremy.

The Voice Season 26: The Battles Give Us the Perfect Combinations

Picking up from the previous show, Austyns chose Team Snoop after all the coaches tried to steal him. 

Team Snoop: Dreion vs. Georgia Starnes singing Perfect Combination by Stacy Lattisaw and Johnny Gill-- They are both amazing! I love the way Dreion puts his own signature and interpretation on everything. He has so much soul. Georgia just kept making me listen to her and pay attention to her. Her runs were stellar. Reba said they were so well matched; I agree, these were two four chair turns. Gwen said Dreion you have literally one of the best voices I have ever heard in my life. If I am going based on The Voice, I would pick Dreion. If I am going on the entire package I would pick Georgia, I don't know where you're going, but you're going somewhere. Michael called Georgia a soulful, beautiful, singer. He said soul has nothing to do with the color of your skin. He said Dreion, I just want to be like you, you have an incredible voice, smooth as silk. Snoop said there is no loser and either one of them could win The Voice. 

“I just want to make sure that everybody understands that this opportunity, this exposure, this millions of people that’s watching you, whatever happens after this is not based on today, but what you do based off of today.”

Snoop chose Georgia! I am so shocked that no one stole Dreion!! He is so talented. 


Monataged: 
Team Gwen: Kay Sibal vs. Beya singing Please Please Please by Sabrina Carpenter-- Gwen chose Kay, Beya is eliminated. 

Team Reba: Juakeem Fortson vs. Tsola singing Higher Love by Steve Winwood-- Reba chose Juakeen, Tsola is eliminated. 

Team Buble: Sofronio Vasquez vs. Aliyah Khaylyn singing The Power of Love by Celine Dion-- This was amazing, such a difficult song to sing and these two did it pretty seamlessly. Snoop was moved by the performance. He said that they look like they belong together and he is glad he doesn't have to pick. Reba called it the performance of the night and said it gave her chills. Gwen mentioned how hard this song is to sing. Michael said these are the two strongest singers on his team. Michael chose Sofronio and Snoop stole Aliyah at the last minute.

3. Kendall Eugene

4. Sydney Sterlace

5. Mor Ilderton

6. Felsmere

7. Tanner Frick

8. Austyns Stancil 


Georgia Starnes sang Too Good at Goodbye by Sam Smith-- Georgia has a unique sound, I don't expect that voice out of that body. She is a four chair turn. Michael complimented her control and her tone. Snoop loved her stage presence. She ended up picking Team Snoop. 


Edward Preble sang Luck be a Lady by Frank Sinatra-- One of my absolute faves so far. Edward is a true talent and we need people like him and Michael to ensure that this genre of music lives on. Snoop turned almost immediately. I love how his musical taste is so eclectic. Michael spoke about how much he loves jazz as a genre and works hard to protect it which is why he took so long to turn. Edward chose Michael. 



Creigh Reipe sang Beautiful Things by Benson Boone-- Did not love this. Reba and Gwen turned and he picked Reba. 

Adam Bohanan sang Home and he was a one chair turn with only Reba turning. 

Jeremy Beloate sang Heartbreak Anniversary by Giveon-- This performance was amazing. I loved Jeremy's vocal. He is someone I could see making it on Broadway. Michael said you could do, pop, R&B, crooner, or theater. You can do it all, and I can learn something from you. This was a well deserved four chair turn. Snoop talked about how some of his best records were written in pain. He said that is when we are at our most expressive. Jeremy chose Michael.


Jaylen Dunham sang Listen from Dreamgirls-- This kid is really talented and as Michael said, he will be formidable in 3, 5, and 10 years. He is only 14! No one turned, but Gwen decided to use her replay on him. I would like to see if she is able to grow him. 


Mistermoon sang Deeper Well by Kacey Musgraves-- hmmm interesting but not great. Reba and Snoop turned and after saying that they wanted Reba to turn, they picked Snoop. 

Frankie Torres sang Magic Man by Heart-- The coaches really liked this girl. I did too. I just didn't like the song. She is a rocker though through and through and I will look forward to seeing what songs she and her coach come up with. This was another four chair turn. Michael turned first.
