The Voice Season 24: Send Me an Angel.....

Team Legend:

SUPER SAVE Azan sang Adorn by Miguel-- I loved her rendition of this, she sounded amazing. This super save has to go through to the live shows. She put her own style and swag on it just like Miguel. Reba said I loved your stage presence, I couldn't take my eyes off you.  Niall said that was your best performance, the runs were so tasteful. Gwen said you walked in and sang that song with such ease, it was sexy and swaggy. John said I wouldn't change anything. 



Kristen Brown sang Need You Now by Lady A-- Okay, so I liked it but I did not love it. I wanted more angst and emotion in her voice. Reba said you made the country crowd so proud. Gwen was regretting letting her go. John thought she had great breath control and that is was perfectly executed. 

Kaylee Shimizu sang You Put a Move on My Heart by Quincy Jones and Tamia-- Amazing! Wow! I did not think she could top her previous performances, this was amazing for me. One of my favorite voices in this competition. Reba said you are destined for stardom. John said you have so much composure, death, and range; you are so special Kaylee. 



Taylor Deneen sang Get Here by Oleta Adams-- This was so tasteful and beautiful. Taylor is such a gifted vocalist. She is mature and poised beyond her years. John is going to have some tough decisions to make because he has a stacked team full of stellar vocalists. Reba said way to go. Gwen said this is one of my favorite songs and it is so perfect for your voice, I would buy your record tomorrow. John said you carry yourself with such elegance, it felt like you were putting on a great concert.



Lila Forde sang Angel from Montgomery by John Prine-- I love how her personality shone through in this performance. Her vocals were unique and her tone was warm all the way through. She was just so so good! Niall said you were incredible, you are one of my favorite acts on the voice. Gwen said you sound like someone who has a 70s vibe but it flows through you naturally. Reba said you are the complete package. John called her runs fresh but classic. 



Mac Royals sang Untitled by D'Angelo-- He is so good. This was such a good song choice for him. I loved the whole performance start to finish. Gwen said I was blown away, I loved how you were on the stage, everything. Reba said I am so proud of you and I know your grandma would be too. Niall said I felt like I was just watching the finale. John said I put you up there with the best I have ever been around. You are rewarding the leap of faith I took. 



John chose Mac, Lila, and Azan.... I think John made the right choices but I am awfully sorry to see Kaylee and Taylor go because they are both immensely talented.

The Voice Season 24: Unstoppable Performance in These Three Way Knockouts

Team Legend

Deejay Young singing Breakin' My Heart (Pretty Brown Eyes) -- This was a bit of an obscure song choice. 

Lila Forde singing Fire and Rain by James Taylor -- I like this for her, even though it was a little sleepy, it displayed the nuances of her voice so well. 

Stee singing Pretty Wings by Maxwell-- This was such a beautiful performance. He is a singer who knows who he is. This was my fave performance. 

John chose Lila and Gwen stole Stee. 

Montaged: 

Team Gwen

BIAS singing You Should Probably Leave by Chris Stapleton beat Jason Arcilla  and Jenna Marquis 

Team Niall

Claudia B singing Don't Know Why by Nora Jones -- Boring song choice for her, she is super talented but undersold herself on this one. I love her more than the song. 

Huntley singing Dead or Alive by Jon Bon Jovi -- He is a favorite for me in this competition. I can definitely see him winning it all. His voice is just so clutch. 

Noah Spencer singing Where Rainbows Never Die by The Steeldrivers -- I am a huge Noah fan. He is unique, young, and talented. I am not super familiar with this song, I was hoping he'd do something more main stream, but he makes me a believer every time I hear him. 

Niall chose Huntley, saved Claudia B., and Reba stole Noah. John tried to steal Claudia and Noah! Wow this was quite the trio. 



Team Reba

Ms Monet singing Best of my Love-- I loved this performance, Ms Monet has such attitude and personality and really sold the song. She is also such a talented vocalist. 

Rachele Nguyen singing Die from a Broken Heart by Maddie & Tae-- She's experienced so much growth but the other two outshined her. 

Ruby Leigh singing Blue by Leann Rimes-- This performance was original country. There is something about Ruby that makes you feel like you're in a time capsule. 

Reba chose Ruby


Team Gwen 

Kara Tenae singing Leave Get Out by Jojo-- Loved her performance, she's the real deal from a soul perspective. 

Kristen Brown singing This One's for the Girls by Martina McBride-- Oh wow, this was good, she impressed me. 

CORii singing Ain't It Fun by Paramore-- Fun performance, I enjoy watching CORii perform. 

Gwen chose Kara and John stole Kristen 



Tuesday Episode

Team Legend

Brandon Montel singing Nobody Gets Me by SZA-- Brandon did have great presence, he was very connected to the song. 

Taylor Deneen singing Sweet Thing by Rufus and Chaka Kahn-- One of my fave songs. Wow, the coaches were all on their feet for Taylor. She was so good, in such good voice tonight. Loved her. She and Mac should move on is my opinion here. 

Mac Royals singing Lost Without You by Robin Thicke-- Mac was so good, that was so flipping impressive, the vocals, the look everything. I loved this, he is a star. 

John chose Mac and saved Taylor 




Montaged Team Reba: Reba chose Jordan Rainer over Caitlin Quisenberry and Elizabeth Evans

Team Niall

Alexa Wildish singing Believe by Cher-- I love how she put her own interpretation of the song. It reinvented the lyrics for me. 

Julia Roome singing Unstoppable by Sia-- Wow! At 13, this young lady is impressive. Her vocal for this was sick!!! 

Lennon Vanderdoes singing I Won't Give Up by Jason Mraz-- Lennon has such a unique tone. You have to really use your breath well for this song and he absolutely did. 

Niall chose Alexa
