The Voice Season 14: I'm Starving for More Battle Rounds

Team Kelly: Amber Sauer vs. Jorge Eduardo sang Starving by Hailee Steinfeld-- I thought this was such a fun battle. I liked both of them, they're multi-talented. I think they'd adapt well which makes for a strong competitor. For me, Amber overshadowed Jorge, to me she was the presence.  Adam said Amber you're a fantastic singer, Jorge, you're so diverse in what you do. I'd go with you Jorge. Blake said Amber you have so much stage presence, you had the most fun, I'd be going with you Amber. Kelly liked how Jorge brought the guitar in, and she loved how Amber sang in Spanish.
Kelly chose Jorge

Team Adam: Davison vs. Reid Umstattd sang Love on the Brain by Rihanna--  I found this to be somewhat of an odd song choice and pairing, these two guys couldn't be more different from each other, and even for Davison this song didn't really suit him. Blake said he would go with Davison. Kelly thought both of them held their own and she didn't know who she would pick.
Adam chose Reid

Montages.....

Team Blake: Bransen Ireland vs. Jaron Strom sang Head Over Boots by Jon Pardi, Blake chose Jaron

Team Kelly: Jamella vs. Teana Boston sang Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow by Carole King, Kelly chose Jamella

Team Alicia: Johnny Bliss vs. Megan Lee sang Versace on the Floor by Bruno Mars, Alicia chose Johnny

Team Alicia: Jordyn Simone vs. Kelsea Johnson sang Don't Let Go by En Vogue-- I thought Kelsea sounded great in rehearsals but when it came to the actual performance night, I felt like her voice was strained and she faltered. Jordyn's voice was strong and soulful. There was a real fullness and roundness to her tone, and it is so hard to believe she is only 17, I'd go with her.  Adam said he'd go with Jordyn. Blake liked that rasp that Kelsea had in her voice. Kelly also said that she would go with Kelsea.
Alicia chose Kelsea, Adam pushed to steal Jordyn right behind was Kelly. Adam argued that he said Jordyn won that battle, and Jordyn chose Adam



Who did I like tonight? If Kelsea's voice heals she'll be a contender and I see Jordyn taking notes from Adam and only growing from here.

The Voice Season 14: The Blinds Night 4 Will Lead Me Home with ... One Headlight


Spensha Baker sang Blackbird by The Beatles-- Spensha was a HUGE surprise to me, I loved her rendition of this song and how she made it her own like Adam was saying. I think she will do well in this competition. Kelly and Blake turned. When Spensha revealed that she wants to be a country artist, it was all over. Kelly talked about standing in line for a country concert, Blake talked about putting concerts on.
Spensha chose Blake

Alexa Cappeli sang I Got the Music in Me-- Kelly and Adam turned! At first this seemed karaoke but as the performance went on, it kept improving. I liked all the things she did to make this boring song actually interesting. Adam asked her what type of music she likes to listen to and she said classic rock, pop, Kelly Clarkson. She auditioned for something and sang a Kelly Clarkson song. Adam bowed out and was like personally I think she should pick me, but it was nice knowing you, goodnight!
Alexa chose Kelly

Wilkes sang One Headlight by The Wallflowers-- I thought his voice was great, very authentic rocker. I could see him in a band as a lead singer. Adam and Blake looked at each other and turned. Adam mentioned the classic rock feel to him. Kelly asked if he just wants to do rock or not, and he said that he likes rock but he also likes southern or country music. Wilkes apologizes to Adam and chooses Blake.
Wilkes chose Blake 

Lightning Rounds--
Jesslee sang I'm With You by Avril Lavigne and ended up on Team Blake
Jordyn Simone sang Tennessee Whiskey by Chris Stapleton and ended up on Team Alicia
Megan Lee Killing Me Softly by Roberta Flack and ended up on Team Alicia

Jaron Strom sang This Magic Moment by The Drifters-- Wow, I am a little surprised Blake turned, Jaron has some work to do to prove to me he is worthy. I didn't love it, but he can break dance so ..... let's see. Blake liked it I guess.
Blake chose Jaron

Terrence Cunningham sang My Girl by The Temptations-- I love Terrence's sound and how he slowed My Girl down a little bit more. Adam turned almost immediately and Alicia followed. I hope Adam gets this guy.... all coaches have now turned, 4 chairs! WOW! He was flawless, and I don't say that often. Kelly played the card of having been in a singing competition before. Alicia thanked him for his honesty. Blake said that was a tender moment. Adam said you don't need us, we need you. I want to coach you more than anyone.
Terrence chose Alicia

Loved Alexa and Terrence tonight, I think Alexa could be a dark horse in this competition
