The Voice Season 24: Team Gwen and Team Reba Give Their All

Team Reba 

Jordan Rainger sang Boondocks by Little Big Town-- Hmm I liked it but I didn't love it. She felt sharp at certain points for me. I liked the song choice but didn't love how she did it from a style standpoint. John said people who should be in the lives are people who have a strong sense of who they are. Reba said she was so proud. 

SUPER SAVE Ms Monet sang Until You Come Back to Me by Aretha Franklin-- Wow! I am so happy Reba invited Ms Monet back. This was my favorite performance. Her vocals were emotional and powerful. Loved it! Niall said you paid homage to Aretha but you also put some Ms Monet on it. Reba said to watch you walk on the stage, I am so proud to know you. 



Jacquie Roar sang The Chain by Fleetwood Mac-- This is one of my favorite Fleetwood Mac songs and this performance was just incredible. John said it was his favorite Jacquie performance so far, it was tasteful and he loved it. Gwen said you never seem to look nervous. You kept turning up the gears louder and louder. Reba said you went for it, and you nailed it. 



Noah Spencer sang Jolene by Ray LaMontagne-- That was an amazing performance. Niall said you're such a talent and your voice is so unique. Gwen said when you perform you are so available through the songs, you're a really great artist. Reba said you turned it up from zero to ten from rehearsals, congratulations. 

Ruby Leigh sang Long Long Time by Linda Ronstadt-- This was beautiful and I absolutely loved her rendition of this song.  Niall said you are one of one, that is the best version of that song I ever heard.  



Reba chose Jordan, Jacquie, and Ruby to move on to the Live Shows

I would have chosen Jacquie, Ruby, and Noah


Team Gwen

Stee sang Shut Up and Dance by Walk the Moon-- This wasn't my fave song choice but I think he is a polished and great performer. 

BIAS sang Where I Find God by Larry Fleet-- Wow! This guy is smart and he looks like a star. This was such a good song choice. What an awesome performance. Gwen said your originality is so pure. I am honored and proud to have you on my team. 



Rudi sang My All / Mi Todo by Mariah Carey-- She sounds amazing! I loved this song choice for her and that she did it in English and Spanish. She also looks gorgeous, like a star. Niall thought it was special. John thought her degree of difficulty was high. Gwen said you did a beautiful job and you could do any song. 



Tanner Massey sang Impossible by Shontelle-- This performance was emphatic and passionate. I totally loved everything about this and I think Tanner needs to be in the lives because people are going to love him. Reba said you are cute a button and your performance was really good. Niall said you remind me of me when I was younger and I am a big fan. Gwen said you have grown a lot before my eyes and I am super proud. 



SUPER SAVE Lennon Vanderdoes sang Falling Slowly-- This song was so perfect for Lennon; I don't know if it is enough for him to advance but I love his artistry. Niall said that was such a special moment, you're a proper artist. John said you are very consistent, you come out here and execute every time. Reba said I like to be able to identify the artists I listen to and you have that ability. 

Kara Tenae sang Rain by SWV-- This was a magical performance. I loved everything about it-- the song, the vocals, the dynamics, and the emotion. She was simply amazing. One of my fave performances of the night. Niall said you never over perform, that was my favorite performance of you. John said she sounded magical and looked like a star on stage; he said it made him nostalgic. Gwen said what you do is very hard, and you were in control of your voice. 



Gwen chose BIAS, Kara, and Tanner 

I agree with Gwen's choices although I still feel like Rudi should be in this competition, she was so good.

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

The Voice Season 24: These Battles Were Everything I Wanted

 Team Reba brought us Al Boogie and Ruby Leigh singing Jolene by Dolly Parton-- I really wish both could move forward, but I have a feeling it's just going to be Ruby. Al was so good though and should be so proud of who he is as an artist which is authentically country. Niall said Al your tone is infectious, Ruby your tone is so beautiful. Gwen said your presence is not that of a teenager Ruby, Al your stage presence is really strong. John said you both were compelling, Al you killed it man. Ruby I love that cry in your voice, you feel so in possession of your identity as an artist. Reba thought the performance showed their personality as artists. Reba chose Ruby. 


Team Gwen brought us Joslynn Rose and Rudi singing My Immortal by Evanescence-- Amy Lee is one of my faves so hearing this was amazing. Joslynn was a little pitchy. I appreciated Rudi's soulful understated power. John liked how Josslyn started, and he liked how Rudi came into her own. He chose Rudi. Reba said she loved when Josslyn opened her eyes, she loved Rudi's stage presence and voice. Niall said Rudi's performance was flawless, such an impressive sing. Josslyn the way you started out was brilliant, you're just poised. Gwen said this is a tough song to sing. She appreciated both ladies and said there isn't really a winner. However she picked Rudi. 


Team Niall brought us Reid Zingale and Noah Spencer singing Lego House by Ed Sheeran-- Oh my goodness, another song I'm obsessed with. Reid you can tell is a seasoned performer, but for me my pick would be Noah. I am obsessed with his voice, his tone is just so cool. John said he would lean towards Noah. Niall said Reid your tone made me turn. Noah you're a touch closed off but there's something so intriguing, it's like I want to hear more. Niall picked Noah. 


Team Legend brought us Azan and Taylor Deneen singing Do It by Chloe x Halle-- Wow!!! For me, Azan won that. She sold the song, I loved her soulfulness. To me, her voice was Beyonce before Beyonce became too big. Reba said their talent is off the charts. Niall said, Taylor you were brilliant, Azan your stage presence was spectacular; I'd lean to Azan. Gwen said Azan you command more attention. I enjoyed every minute, thank you. John said Azan you're so magnetic, and Taylor you came through and were really confident. John chose Taylor. Niall and Reba are trying to steal Azan. Azan chose Niall. 


Team Niall brought us Alexa Wildish and LVNDR singing Everything I Wanted by Billie Eilish-- Both ladies were so good, but for me there was something magical about Alexa. Gwen said LVNDR you're so stylized you stand out. Alexa you are so classic and so powerful. John said that was so beautiful, LVNDR you were influenced by Billie, Alexa there was something arresting about your voice. I'd pick Alexa. Reba said LVNDR you have that airy, soft, and tender voice. Alexa I love how you looked at the audience and conveyed how you're feeling. I'd pick Alexa. Niall said neither of you deserve to go home. I'm going with my gut feeling. Niall chose Alexa. 



Montaged performance: Team Gwen: Jenna Marquis vs. Claire Heilig sang Flowers by Miley Cyrus. Gwen chose Jenna. 

Team Legend brought us Elizabeth Evans and Kaylee Shimizu singing Traitor by Olivia Rodrigo-- Woah, that ending was stellar. I mean the whole thing was though. Can I pick both of them? Reba said that was fantastic, Elizabeth when you hit that big note I was in awe, Kaylee your range. Niall said that was the best version of that song I have ever heard. Kaylee your runs are phenomenal. Elizabeth you're just a different beast. Gwen called both of them gifted. John said that was stunning, both of you are interesting and cool. Elizabeth you're quirky but you can also flat out sing. Kaylee you're so polished at such a young age, it's stunning to watch. John picked Kaylee. Reba stole Elizabeth right as she was about the leave the stage.

The Voice Season 24: The Blinds So Far, and My Top Picks

Season 24:

Blind Auditions 1: 

Jordan Rainger, 33, kicked it off singing Fancy by Reba McEntire-- I loved the flare she brought to the song. She has a unique sound and she is a little bit country rock. 4 chairs. Jordan of course picked Reba! 

4 CHAIRS

Score: 8 out of 10



Joslyn Rose, 16, sang Arcade by Duncan Laurence-- Gwen, Reba, and Niall turned. She is young and she does have a good voice. She has that folksy sound. However she was a little shaky in some places. Gwen always seems to go for the young contestants. John compared her to Billie Eilish. Joslyn picked Gwen. 

Score: 5 out of 10

DeeJay Young, 33, sang This Woman's Work by Maxwell-- This is a killer song and he did it justice. John, Gwen, and Reba turned. His phrasing is gorgeous and his falsetto is beautiful. I love how he transitions from falsetto to his full voice. He calls Reba a legend but says "Get Lifted" changed his life. He predictably chose John.  

Score: 9 out of 10



Sophia Hoffman, 18, sang Tell Me You Love Me by Demi Lovato-- Love this song, didn't love all the choices she made vocally. She came back from last season. Reba and Niall turned. Reba complimented her power and strength. Sophia chose Niall. 

Score: 6 out of 10

Jackson Snelling, 21, If Heaven Wasn't So Far Away by Justin Moore-- Gwen and Reba turned. Jackson was a contestant on American Idol in 2019. He has a good voice, great country tone, pure. Jackson says he grew up listening to "Miss Reba". Jackson chose Reba. 

Score: 7 out of 10

Alexa Wildish, 34, sang Songbird by Fleetwood Mac-- Well deserved four chair turn. Her tone is stunning. Niall said the performance made him emotional, and that he started picking up a guitar and becoming a songwriter because of people like Stevie Nicks. Everyone commented on the fact that she is a storyteller when she sings. She chose Niall. 

Score: 9 out of 10



Olivia Minogue, 19, sang Lay Me Down by Sam Smith-- I love her song choice. She has a unique tone, it's a little bit odd though. Her lower register just doesn't sit well. John, Niall, and Reba turned, and Olivia being a huge One Direction fan chose Niall. 

Score: 5 out of 10

Kristen Brown, 24, sang Blown Away by Carrie Underwood-- Okay, she is no Carrie, but she did hit some of the big notes. I think she is someone who could improve with some coaching. Gwen and Reba turned for her which I expected. Gwen calls Kristen a diamond in the rough. Reba promises to steal her because Kristen chose Gwen. 

Score: 8 out of 10

Mara Justine, 21, sang Goodbye Yellow Brick Road by Elton John-- Mara was on AGT and American Idol and did pretty well on both shows. Now she has come to The Voice. John, Gwen, Reba, and Niall all turned. She is a pro, and is seasoned as a performer. I don't necessarily love the song for her or this rendition of it. I think she may have changed the melody a little too much. Mara ended up choosing John. 

4 CHAIRS

Score: 7 out of 10

Blind Auditions 2: 

Ruby Leigh, 16, sang I Want to be a Cowboy's Sweetheart by Patsy Montana-- Wow! She is amazing. I cannot believe she is 16. I don't agree with John often but he said her voice was clear and precise. She is a huge contender in this competition. Niall complimented her power and control. This was a deserved four chair turn. Ruby chose Reba, this is a great match. 

4 CHAIRS 

Score: 9.5 out of 10



Juliette Ojeda, 20, sang Hopelessly Devoted to You from Grease-- This was a little too old fashioned for me. I'd like to hear her sing something straight pop. Gwen, Niall, and Reba turned for her. Juliette chose Gwen. 

Score: 4 out of 10

Julia Roome, 13, sang Dream a Little Dream of Me-- Wow, her voice is so mature for her age. She has a classic sound, but it doesn't sound too old fashioned if that even makes sense. Her tone is unique. Niall and Gwen turned. She looked so excited when Niall turned. She could go far if coached and developed in the right way. I am actually surprised that she did not receive more turns. Julia chose Niall. 

Score: 8.5 out of 10

Jenna Marquis, 19, sang Teenage Dirtbag by Wheatus-- Gwen, Niall, and John turned. I actually admired her choice of song and the way she pursued it and really made it her own. I loved the attack of the second half and her rasp. Jenna said she really looks up to Gwen and listens to her every day. She said she first heard the song she sang at a One Direction concert. Jenna chose Gwen.

Score: 9 out of 10



Ephraim Owens, 36, sang Beneath Your Beautiful by Labrinth-- I don't even like that song and he was amazing. His tone is so special. He comes across as passionate, and his full voice is like incredible. Gwen liked his combo of soul and rock. Niall complimented his angst. Reba called him a firecracker, dynamic, and explosive. However-- Ephraim said John is one of his inspirations, so it is no surprise that he chose John.

4 CHAIRS

Score: 10 out of 10



Blind Auditions 3:

Stee, 34, sang Sugar by Maroon 5-- John blocked Niall. Reba loved the song selection and dance moves. Stee said he has been singing since he was 14. I loved the performance quality. Niall commented that he was singing Adam Levine and Adam does kill that song. I thought he was great, and Gwen commented on how his personality shone through and I agree, I felt that as well. Stee said his cousin who passed away three weeks ago was John's biggest fan. He was hoping he would be there. Stee chose John. 

4 CHAIRS

Score: 9.5 out of 10

Chechi Sarai, 32, sang Lovin You by Minnie Riperton-- Her vocals were effortless. I cannot wait to hear her progress throughout the course of the season. Niall sees her as a finalist. Reba said her vocals are just "insane". Gwen said it was like she was watching a Grammy performance. She believes she can help her find her heart. Chechi chose Gwen. 

4 CHAIRS

Score: 10 out of 10


Reid Zingdale, 27, sang July by Noah Cyrus-- Gwen, Niall, and John turned almost immediately. I think he has a cool sound, but I agree with Reba, he needs to enunciate his words a little bit better. The song is cool though and he has a storyteller sound and vibe. Niall said my fans are going to love you. Reid chose Niall. 

Score: 8.5 out of 10

Claudia B, 24, sang Human Nature by Michael Jackson-- John, Niall, and Reba turned at the beginning. I love the song choice, and how she kind of gave it a jazz/ pop sound. She does have some soul in her voice too. Claudia went to Berklee and studied jazz. John asked what instrument she played, she said keys. Niall said he could tell she was a musician cause of how she interpreted the song. Claudia mentioned that she waited on Reba in Nashville and that she was very sweet to her, and Reba commented that she liked her vulnerability. Claudia chose John. 

Score: 8.25 out of 10

Mac Royals, 30, sang Gravity by John Mayer-- He is the real deal. I loved his rendition of this song, oh my goodness, John Mayer is smiling watching this somewhere. He is soulful, expressive, and just all his own. John comments that he made us forget about the original. Reba stresses that she loves all genres of music. Mac surprises the whole panel by choosing Reba. He said he and his grandmother used to watch her show together. 

4 CHAIRS

Score: 10 out of 10



Noah Spencer, 20, sang Something in the Orange by Zach Bryan-- I love his voice. John didn't turn because an artist like Noah is beyond him. His voice is so cool and so pretty, I just love the gravel and the rasp. Gwen, Reba, and Niall all turned. Niall called his voice "ridiculous", and said he had done a version of that song. Noah said he is a fan of it. Gwen said America loves your type of voice. Reba loved the gravel in his voice. Noah said he grew up listening to bluegrass and country. Noah chose Niall. 

Score: 9 out of 10 



Tom Nitti, 31, sang Signed, Sealed, Delivered by Stevie Wonder-- Only Reba turned. His voice is okay, it's a little bit predictable. He is singing in a rock/ country style. I would like to see him progress in the competition. Tom is on Team Reba

Score: 7 out of 10

Alison Albrecht sang Ironic by Alanis Morissette-- Another one chair turn by Reba. I don't find Alison particularly strong. I think she will quickly be pushed out in the next round. 

Score: 4 out of 10

Talakai, 34, sang Stay with Me by Sam Smith-- Not too impressed with this one. Reba and John turned, and Talakai chose John. Hopefully John will help him, he needs a strong coach. 

Score: 5 out of 10

Rudi, 28, sang You Don't Know Me by Leslie Gore-- I actually loved her surprisingly. Her voice was very soulful, she kind of reminded me of a cross between Ariana Grande, J Lo, and JoJo. Niall blocks John. Gwen turns early on and is the first one. It was such a good song choice. Reba loved that it was a story song that touched her heart. Rudi said that she is a huge fan of Gwen's. Rudi chose Gwen. 

4 CHAIRS 

Score: 10 out of 10



Blind Auditions 4: 

Laura Williams, 20, sang Fingers Crossed by Lauren Spencer Smith-- Hmm, the coaches obviously loved her. I found her a little bit shouty at times. I do give her props for getting through the song, but there was something about it that I didn't love the way the coaches did.  Niall loves her vibe and mentions how difficult the song is to sing. Reba says Laura is a prodigy. Laura chose Niall, obviously because she spoke about how much she loved One Direction. 

4 CHAIRS

Score:  8 out of 10


Ms Monet, 50, sang Higher Love by Steve Winwood-- She has the sounds and moves of a seasoned performer. This was a great song choice for her. Towards the end, Gwen and Reba turned. Reba said she loves her range. She has sang backing vocals for Faith Hill, Tim McGraw, Tony Toni Tone, etc. Ms Monet said she sang backing vocals for Gwen's Christmas album. Ms Monet chose Reba. 

Score: 8.25 out of 10

Jason Arcilla, 34, sang Dreams by Fleetwood Mac-- To me, this should have been four chairs. He was amazing. I feel like I could feel the emotions he was conveying through this song. There is totally a roundness in his voice, that I am obsessed with, and I cannot wait to hear what happens going forward. Gwen and Reba turned, Gwen blocked Reba, and Jason is on Team Gwen. 

Score: 10 out of 10



Kaylee Shimizu, 17, sang Golden Slumbers by The Beatles-- I find her song choice a little bit weird. She has an Ariana Grande vibe, clearly she can hit high notes. She does have an impressive range, and there is a wideness in her lower register. John said her voice was dazzling and creative. Gwen liked her slow vibrato. Niall said she is technically gifted. Kaylee chose John. 

4 CHAIRS

Score: 9.25 out of 10

BIAS, 23, sang God's Country by Blake Shelton-- I can tell BIAS is a big fan of Blake, he did have some definite pitch issues. I am hoping with some good coaching that Gwen or Reba can help him with that. Niall noted that the pitch issues is why he did not turn. BIAS chose Gwen. 

Score: 6 out of 10

Rachele Nguyen, 17, sang Bleeding Love by Leona Lewis-- She has a pretty voice and this is a tough song to sing but she is pretty pitchy. The song also felt very fragmented when she was singing it. There were many shining moments. Reba said she turned because she wants to help her blossom. Only Reba turns, and she is on Team Reba. 

Score: 7 out of 10

LVNDR, sang Hotline Bling by Drake-- I think she has a cool sound. I am not totally sure of the arrangement but I give her major props for changing it up. John liked her point of view and story to tell. LVNDR said she taught herself guitar. Niall loves her character and called it stunning. Reba said she regrets not turning. LVNDR chose Niall. 

Score: 9 out of 10




Jacquie Roar, 37, sang Here for the Party by Gretchen Wilson-- Her performance got better as it went along. She was definitely nervous at first. I love all the grit and growl in her voice, and this song suited her style of rock/ country. All four coaches took a while, but turned. Reba loved her song choice and thought her range was incredible. Niall said that was insane, he wanted to see dynamic and she showed it. Gwen said this is so much pressure, I want you to like me. John said it's obvious you would go with Team Legend, you're going to do so well on this show because your voice is powerful. Jacquie brought her daughter out and they picked Gwen. 

4 CHAIRS

Score: 9.5 out of 10


Blind Auditions 5:

Lila Forde, 24, sang Can't Find My Way Home by Blind Faith-- All four coaches turned quickly. I love the breaks in her voice. They almost sound like flaws, but it's just really cool. Gwen said that performance was everything I love. John loved the nuances, and controlled. Reba said you're an old soul, mature beyond your years. Lila chose John. 

4 CHAIRS

Score: 8 out of 10

Angelina Nazarian, 17, sang The Trouble with Love Is by Kelly Clarkson-- She has a good voice and there are some shining moments. However, there are also some pitch issues. Overall, cool nuances, strong voice, and in need of some development. Niall and Reba turn. Gwen said she regretted not turning. Niall liked her lower register. Reba said that if Angelina chooses her they could explore new things for her to sing. Angelina chose Reba

Score: 7.9 out of 10

Tanner Massey, 19, sang Before You Go by Lewis Capaldi-- He reminds me a little bit of Shawn Mendes. I like his voice, there were some nerves, but he worked them out for sure. I love how he changed up the song towards the end. Reba, Gwen, and Niall turned. Niall said he can work with nerves, and he said he would call Lewis because he would be very happy with that version of his song. Reba said she was first to turn, she could help with stage presence and song selection. Gwen thought his voice sounded airy and warm and that he is a diamond in the rough. Tanner chose Niall. 

Score: 9 out of 10


Jarae Womack, 35, sang Back to Black by Amy Winehouse-- Loved her rendition of this song. Amy Winehouse did it with such soul and Jarae did as well. Niall said you completely made the song your own, so believable. Reba said that touched my soul, I love the roundness of your voice; I am blessed to be in your presence. John said that was genre-less. You were speaking honestly through the music, I would love to work with you. Gwen loved the breathiness and rasp, very emotional. Jarae chose John. 

4 CHAIRS

Score: 10 out of 10


Brandon Montel, 29, sang Hard Place by H.E.R.-- Brandon has a cool voice and vibe, reminds me a little bit of the singer Mario. Reba blocked John. John said we've been prevented from working together, if there is a steal opportunity, I will be first in line. Niall said your runs were tasteful and your tone was so good, I've been waiting for you. Reba said Brandon, you're the reason I blocked on John. I have been holding my block, you're special, your soulfulness, I'd love to have you on my team. Gwen thought his performance was gorgeous and original sounding. Brandon chose Gwen.

4 CHAIRS

Score: 9 out of 10


Al Boogie, 37, sang Pick Up Man by Joe Diffie-- I remember him from last season. Reba was the only one who turned. I liked his performance. I thought the song choice was good for him. Al said a big part of his upbringing was listening to Reba on the radio. Reba said we're going to have a blast. 

Score: 8.5 out of 10

Little Montage.....
Both one turn Reba pick ups--- 

CORii sang Scared to be Lonely and Crystal Nicole sang Only Girl (In the World), which she co-wrote. Kinda weird that they would be montaged. 

Elizabeth Evans, 22, sang All I Wanted by Paramore-- She is an interesting character for sure. She is a little bit shouty in spots, there is some shakiness too in her vocals. John and Reba turned, and Elizabeth ending up choosing Team John 

Score: 4 out of 10

Nini Iris, 27, sang I See Red by Everybody Loves an Outlaw-- WOW! One of my fave performances season to date. The coaches are turned quickly, Niall was on his feet. She is fierce and powerful. Niall said the rock singer in you came through, the whole room was with you. We're looking at a potential winner here. Reba said I am thrilled I watched you perform and I loved your stage presence. Gwen thought it was incredible and liked how she was able to flip so easily. She said her performance was Grammy worthy. She chose Niall as her coach. 

4 CHAIRS

Score: 10 out of 10


Blind Auditions 6: 

Willie Gomez, 37, sang La Bachata by Manuel Turizo-- Niall said it was a good performance. Gwen said it was a beautiful performance, and she liked the vibe and energy, super gifted, super talented. I think she said flawless also. John said Latin music is so big right now, it is pop music, I'd love to be your coach. Reba said she couldn't understand him, she thoroughly enjoyed his performance. Willie chose John. 

4 CHAIRS

Score: 9 out of 10

Olivia Eden, 15, sang This Town by Niall Horan-- She was a little bit awkward but I loved her vocals. Reba was right, she has such vocal ease. Gwen mentioned that yodel in her voice. Niall thanked her for picking his song and called her captivating and said he would love to hear her sing country music. Reba and Niall turned, and Olivia chose Niall. 

Score: 8 out of 10

Caitlin Quisenberry, 27, sang Rainbow by Kacey Musgraves-- She did not sound like she was connecting with the song. Vocal was shaky. Reba and Gwen turned. Caitlin chose Reba. 

Score: 4 out of 10

Kara Tenae, 33, sang Boo'd Up by Ella Mai-- I like her soul but she is almost over enunciating and it sounds weird. Gwen, Reba, and Niall turned. I like when she hit the high note towards the end, but she needs some coaching. Kara chose Gwen. 

Score: 6 out of 10

Caleb Sasser, 27, sang Another Sad Love Song by Toni Braxton-- Caleb was surprising because he sustained that higher register throughout the entire song. His range is simply incredible. John said he was hearing Toni and Anita Baker in his voice. John said we need to pick the songs that allow you to be the artist that you are. Gwen said I would love to coach you and help people get to know you as a person. Reba said your album made me feel such peace, I love your voice, and I would love to be your coach. Caleb said he grew up watching Reba on TV and loves her. Caleb chose John.
