The Voice Season 16: U Got it Bad for The Battles

Team Legend: Lisa Ramey vs. Betsy Ade singing The Joke--To me, Lisa is more different! Betsy was slightly more invested emotionally. I'd go with Lisa cause she's the comeback kid. Blake was torn, and Adam was undecided as well. John said you both showed you belong on a stage.
John chose Lisa and Kelly stole Betsy which was slightly surprising. The coaches like these two a lot more than I did.

Team Adam: Mari vs. Anthony Ortiz singing I Like Me Better by Lauv-- Adam said Mari was amazing and performed even better than in practice. Adam said Anthony's nerves got him at first but he recovered well. He did everything Adam asked of him. All the coaches seemed to want to go with Mari and ....
Adam chose Mari, he's bummed about Anthony I can tell!

Team Blake: Hannah Kay vs. Andrew Sevener singing Tequila --
Blake chose Andrew

Team Kelly: Abby Kasch vs. Jackson Marlow singing Bring on the Rain--
Kelly chose Abby

Team Legend: Jacob Maxwell vs. Talon Cardon singing Every Little Thing She Does is Magic by Sting-- I was not in love with that performance. Kelly thought Talon has more of an R&B type of vibe so he was at a disadvantage. It was more Jacob's style.
John chose Jacob

Team Kelly: David Owens vs. Rebecca Howell sang Unchained Melody-- Both are strong vocalists in this match up. The coaches are moved by the performance.
Kelly chose Rebecca and David gets chosen for the comeback stage.

Team Adam: Kalvin Jarvis vs. Jimmy Mowery singing U Got it Bad by Usher-- Wow! Best of the night by a mile. They sounded so good together. Jimmy's falsetto is so good, and Adam clearly worked with him on his full voice. Kalvin's lower register is so smooth. John said I have a hard time deciding between the two of you. Adam is proud of how they worked together through the performance. He really likes both of them.
Adam chose Kalvin and John stole Jimmy! Yes! Both of them deserve it.

The Voice Season 16: Night Two of The Blinds Are Closer to Fine

Dominic Haynes sang River by Leon Bridges-- Dominic is special!  His voice was so magical, it's almost like the music took hold of him. Adam turned immediately and then John who Adam blocked. Blake turned at the end. Adam said I think you might be my favorite singer in all 16 seasons of the show. Your voice is raw. Blake said every muscle in your body is creating that sound, you can separate yourself from anyone on the radio and everyone on this show. Kelly said he was very Ray LaMontagne. Adam jumped back in and said he knew after 4 seconds that he was hearing something special.
Dominic chose Adam

Savannah Brister sang Don't You Worry Bout a Thing by Stevie Wonder-- John is totally right, it is crazy to me that Savannah is only 17. She is mature beyond her years and makes decisive choices when she sings. John turned quickly, he loved the energy and loved the performance. He liked the musical choices she made with the song. Kelly said I would love you to come to my team Savannah.
Savannah chose John

The Bundys sang Closer to Fine by The Indigo Girls-- It's a Voice first, a trio! Kelly and Blake are the only ones that turn. Kelly says one of her fave things about singing is singing harmonies. Blake is excited at the prospect of being the first coach for a trio on the show. He basically begs them to choose him.
The Bundys chose Kelly

Klea Olson sang No Roots by Alice Merton-- Her voice reminds me a little bit of Florence Welch from Florence and the Machine, a little Shakira too. She has a good range with her voice, but I don't know that this song was right for her. John said everyone was close in turning but you just weren't all the way there. Adam said if she came back she would do well. No one turned but she got chosen for the comeback stage.

Hannah Kay sang Coal Miner's Daughter by Loretta Lynn-- Hannah is authentic country. Blake said you can be that genuine country singer. Kelly loves her authentic country style. Hannah admits to singing Since You Been Gone forever in her bedroom but then she says that she has had a crush on Blake forever.
Hannah chose Blake

Julian King sang All Time Low by Jon Bellion-- Julian is interesting, and there is no doubt I want to hear more from him. I want to see his song choices going forward. I actually liked his version of the song more than the original. Adam turned and John blocked him, but John was the only other coach who turned so he automatically landed Julian.
John chose Julian

My predictions---

Domenic will go far in this, and Hannah could be a surprise in this competition.
