Daly:
Tonight, the battles begin...

[ Laughs ]

...with some of the biggest
forces in music today.

Four award‐winning
superstar advisers,

and this season,
the rules have changed.

First of all,
this is young Nick Jonas's

first battle rounds on
"The Voice."
Yes.

What happens if we both try
to ‐‐

two people try to steal
the same person?

Then you have to fight for it.
Oh, no.

The power shifts back to
the artist...

Yeah.
...and they pick again.

But if it's his people, then
they would obviously pick him.

No, I‐I have to wait this time.
We changed the rules.

You guys get the steal option
before I get the save.

Fantastic.
If none of you guys steal them,
then I can save them.

Okay, alright.
Speaking of save,

there's gonna be four saves
in the battle.

And then those four saves
go to the four‐way knockout.

Which is crazy, yeah.
That's intense.

Blake, is there anybody
on somebody else's team

that you have
your eye on?

My fear is that
these other artists

have already worked
with these coaches,

and it may be too late
for these people...

[ Laughing ] Oh, my God.
...because
there's no telling

what horrible direction
they've been given.
True.

Yeah. We've ruined them.
Who knows what's gonna happen?

Alright,
let's go do it.

Kelly: Let's do it!
Get outta here.

[ Laughter ]
Go back to my nap.

♪♪♪

Season 18 battles.

Walking in to, uh,
start sorting this out.

Yep, that's the chair we wanted.
Okay.

It's a soundproof glass, is it?

Okay, we forgot to put
the glass in.

♪♪♪

That's Bebe Rexha.

I brought in Bebe Rexha
as my adviser.

Thank you for being here.
I'm excited.

She's somebody who's been
successful as an artist

in different genres, and she
probably had the most played

country song...
♪ But if it's meant to be ♪

♪ It'll be, it'll be ♪
...in the history of
any country chart.

You've done the...

Comeback Stage.
...Comeback Stage,

so you kind of get
the whole mentoring thing.

That prepared me.
Yeah.

I think there's some
incredible talent today.

I'm excited to see.
Yeah.

I not only feel like
she could be a great mentor,

I also think that she could be
a good coach, even.

I love '80s rock.
Do you like '80s rock?

I mean, my mom used to play it
in the house.
Yeah.

Why do you got to say it
like that?

I didn't say it like that.
Are you trying to say I'm old?

No, you're not old.
And that's why I like it?

You're young.
You know how old I am?

Mm, I'm not guessing.
[ Laughs ]

Oh, my God. Wow.
Hey!

What's up, people?
This is Bebe Rexha.

Hi, guys.
Nice to meet you. I'm Joei.

Coming around the corner
and seeing Blake Shelton

was obviously exciting,
but then to see Bebe Rexha there

is absolutely insane.
It was crazy.

You guys are, like,
classic rock.

And people are starving
for that.

I think classic rock's
coming back.

We had our hip‐hop moment,
but I feel like actual rock

is coming back for sure.

It's, like, bleeding
into hip‐hop.

So, apparently, I stuck around
long enough.

[ Laughter ]

To be 50 and to be here
is kind of overwhelming.

I grew up in the '80s,
and that's when hard rock

was really in the limelight.

I played in a band called
Harlet.

It was just loud,
and it was heavy metal.

And by the time I get to the end
of the set,

my voice is starting to
die already.

For the blind audition,
I ended up picking

a song I've been singing
38 years.

♪ Juke box hero ♪

That is a direct path
to the finale, dude.

My blind‐audition day
was my 20th anniversary.

So, to have the opportunity
on the show

and the support my family,
it's all icing on the cake.

I just love this whole,
like, rock.

Oh, my God.
This is, like,
giving me life.

That's part of the reason
you're paired together.

Joei's kind of got, like,
this Cher sound to her voice.

♪ Gypsies, tramps, and thieves ♪

Oh!

So glad I blocked Nick.
[ Laughs ]

Don't tell me you would have
chosen him anyway.

No, literally, you were
my top pick.

I was like, "Blake.
I want Blake."

My heart is really in
country rock.

I grew up in a family band.

I played three to five nights
a week, four hours straight.

I've been doing this
my whole life.

It's the only job I've ever had.
Wow.

Except I have other passions.
I love MMA.

I do boxing, jujitsu ‐‐
everything.

I love how empowering it is
as a woman.

It's really cool to have
Bebe Rexha as an adviser,

'cause she actually has
a woman's perspective.

It's so cool.
Thank you.

Bebe's actually gonna make
all the decisions for me.

Oh!
I just want to hear the song.

Man: Here we go.

♪ I call you
when I need you ♪

♪ And my heart's on fire ♪
Blake: Joei and Todd
are gonna be

singing "The Best"
by Tina Turner.

Both of these artists have
a rock edge to what they do.

It's perfect for both
of their voices.

♪ You're simply the best ♪

♪ Better than all the rest ♪

Joei's voice and tone
is so rich.

She has a classic vibe to her,
and it's really refreshing.

♪ Don't let go ♪
♪ Don't let go ♪

I can't believe
Todd hit those notes. Damn.

That was not, like, humanlike.

♪ You're the best ♪

For a guy to have a range
that high is amazing.

Blake: Whoo!
This is gonna be so good.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[ Laughing ] Thank you.

Holy crap!
That is up there.

Dogs couldn't hear
that note.

[ Laughs ]
Have you always had that range?

I didn't, but when I was
younger, I would drive around

in my car trying
to sing high like that.

I love his voice, too.
I think he's incredible.

It's just so exciting to be
working with Blake and Bebe.

And Joei's got this really neat,
like, husky tone.

I'm actually really intimidated
to sing with her.

The only thing I would say
is just ‐‐ it's, like, so high

and it's, like,
so much energy ‐‐

just listening to each other
a little bit more.

Blending is
really, really important,

and just watching your pitch.
There's a unison thing.

I think we can tweak that
a little bit.

Both: Okay.
Let's sing that part.

♪ Don't let go‐o‐o‐o ♪
♪ Don't let go‐o‐o ♪

I would just not ‐‐

Just don't layer in there
with him.

Okay, so just let him
hold that?

I would just let him
have that and...
Okay.

She's like, "I want to come out
on that high note, too."

[ Laughter ]
"I want to show off."

"It's a competition."

She gets plenty of showoff.

It's definitely a challenge,
going up against someone

like Todd, because he does have
such a powerful voice.

Can you break glass with that?
[ Vocalizing at high pitch ]

It is just high and crystal
clear and pure,

and it's ‐‐ it's beautiful.

So, they told you about
the new save?

It's new. It's exciting.
It's nerve‐racking.

So who's the one
that you're picking?
I'm just joking.

This year, the artist
that we choose to save

will go on to a knockout round
between four different artists.

And only one artist is gonna
come out as the winner.

That's not fair to the rest
of the world

that you guys have
that much talent.

And it's gonna be exciting,
I think.

[ Cheers and applause ]

I'm so excited!
I love this.

Yeah!
Yeah!

Let the battle begin.

He's so, like, Whitesnake.

Whoo!

Wow!
That was so fun and so good.

Both of your voices
fit the song perfectly.

Joei, y‐your tone is so strong.

When you hit the high notes,
it was fantastic.
Thank you.

Todd, I remember
why I wanted you on my team.

Some of these high notes you're
hitting is just, like, insane.

And you're hitting them
with such clarity and power.

The high‐harmony part above,
was like, Oh, my God.
Oh, my goodness.

I was like,
"Who's singing which part?"

Yeah.
Both of you are fantastic.

Thank you.
Thank you.

[ Cheers and applause ]

That performance was like
10 shots of caffeine.

Yeah, yeah.
That was unbelievable.

Please give it to me.
[ Laughs ]

Todd, truly remarkable range.
Thank you.

You're a phenomenal singer.
I'm blown away by you.

Joei, incredible performance.
Thank you.

Your tone is so consistent,
so cool.

This was a really
fun performance,

but on top of that,
technically perfect.

Just because I'm so intrigued
by your voice, Joei, I might ‐‐

I might lean that direction.
Thank you.

But you should both be so proud
of this performance.

And, Blake, you got
a tough decision to make.

A s‐sucky one.
A sucky one, yeah.

Yeah.
Word of the day.

[ Laughter ]

Hello.
Hi.

How you doing?
That was really killer.

Thank you.
I think you sang Cher
in the blinds,

but you have this rasp that is,
like, seriously cool.

Thank you.
And, Todd, I think

we all were like,
"Is he the high harmony?"

I was like,
your voice is insane.

I don't think anybody else
on this show is like you,

and that's really awesome.

I know you sang Foreigner
in the blinds,

and I love Foreigner,
and you nailed that,

but I'd love to hear you ‐‐
But you didn't turn for me.

I know, but you're incredible,
and, honestly ‐‐

Or maybe Kelly
is full of...
Mm.

...crap.

It. It.
You know what?
I'm owning it.

It. Full of it.
That happens sometimes.

Thank you, Coaches.

Alright, buddy,
you have the final decision.

Give us your thoughts
on the battle first.

I'll start with ‐‐ with you,
Joei, because ‐‐

And by the way,
I found out something about you

that I was telling
John earlier.

I said, "Man, I got this girl
on my team

that's, like, an MMA fighter,
like, a bodybuilder girl.

You know what I'm saying?"
It's like,

"she's very comfortable in this
battle‐round setting

for some reason."
I'm in my setting.

But your voice, truly there's
something very magical about it.

You just got an interesting
blend of some icons in there.

Congratulations on being
an awesome singer.

[ Chuckling ]
Thank you.

And, Todd, I don't think you did
MMA fighting or whatever.

No.
But you do, when you sing,

you do have some karate moves.
I just asked her yesterday,

I'm like, "Do people punch you
in the face?"

Yeah.
"Yeah."

That's so cool.

You've recovered quite well,
is what she's saying.

And you're smiling about it.
That's awesome.

It's fun.

I'm ‐‐
For you, it's great.

[ Laughter ]

Todd wanted to learn how
those guys were singing

all those songs b‐back
in the day, you know,

how they were hitting
these notes.

And ‐‐ And he said he just
finally got to a point where

he just got in his car and drove
around, just kept trying

and trying until he developed
that range,

which is unbelievable.

Both of you two
deserve to be here.

Blake, tough choice here.

Who is the winner
of this battle?

Uh...

[ Dramatic music plays ]

...I'm just gonna hope
for the best here
a‐and roll the dice.

♪♪♪

The winner
of this battle...

♪♪♪

...is Joei.

Joei, congratulations!

You're moving on to
the knockouts.

I ended up choosing her because
she's just got so much talent

and she has a ‐‐ a certain
charisma about her.

Thank you so much.
Congratulations, sis.

She's got a gift
that is very unique.

Oh, my God. It was amazing.
It was so much fun.

I'm so grateful to Blake.

Coaches, let me remind you, Todd
is available to steal or save.

But you only have until he
leaves the stage to steal him.

Todd, anything you'd like to say
to your coach?

You know, Blake, I just want to
thank you for the opportunity.

This has just been a
complete blessing for
me, just getting here,

getting picked and everything,
so it's all good.

Give it up for
Todd Michael Hall,
ladies and gentlemen!

Whoa!

Todd Michael Hall
is back on the show!

Was that a save or a steal?

Now go back up there!

Wow.
What happened?

I was ‐‐
I was always gonna do it.

I was being dramatic.
You were a little late.

Blake ‐‐
No, I wasn't.

Blake got the save.

Look up to the sky.
Wait, what?!

[ Laughter ]

I thought I had to wait
till he got down the stairs.

It's the opposite, yeah.
Damn it!

You had to do it before.

It was the first time.

It was the first time!
I have a lot of jobs!

[ Laughter ]

So, Blake,
you've saved Todd.

Blake: I did.
You've used your one save.

I am proud to use my save
on him.

I actually think that Todd
can thrive

in this
four‐way knockout.

It's never happened before,
and if ‐‐

I‐I would not want to go up
against you.

And so, I think you're gonna do
great, man.

Thank you.
Well, give it up for
Todd Michael Hall,

who is back on the show.

We'll see him in
the four‐way knockout,

representing Team Blake.

Todd: I'm so happy
that Blake used his one
and only save on me.

I plan to come light it up
for the knockouts,

so I think he's gonna be
really impressed.

Congrats, brother.
Great job.

Blake: I really think this
worked out for the best.

When the gloves come off
in this four‐way knockout,

nobody in this show
can match his range.

Damn it.

I was gonna steal Todd,
and I messed up, which is ‐‐

You know what ‐‐
not shocking, so it's fine.

I was so excited to find out

who our mentor was...

Are you ready?
I ran down the hall,
basically.

[ Chuckles ]

Hi!

When I saw Kelly by herself,

I was a little confused why
there wasn't an adviser there.

Anaya, Chelle,
nice to see you again.

Today you are doing "Scared to
Be Lonely" by Dua Lipa.

And I thought,
"What better way

than have maybe Dua Lipa
come help you do it?"

[ Laughs ]
Dua, come on in here!

What?!

Oh, my God!

How you doing?
Oh, my God. I'm so good.

Hello.
Hi. How are you?

Good. How are you?
Chelle: Oh, my gosh.

We're gonna sing a Dua Lipa song
in front of Dua Lipa right now.

No pressure ‐‐
it's hers.

No, no,
don't feel any pressure.

I'm so honored you're doing
this, and I'm so excited.

That's just insane. Dua Lipa is
the "it" artist right now.

Like, she is
on top of the world,

she's on top of the charts.

No way in heck did I ever think,

me coming from
Bargersville, Indiana,

I was ever gonna get the chance
to be here.

Bargersville ‐‐ there's probably
7,000 people there.

You'll see cows everywhere,
sometimes goats.

It's not known for a whole lot,
I guess, except for cornfields.

And when you're not singing,
what do you like to do?

I‐I actually collect rocks.

I just graduated high school,

and I became a preschool teacher

Before coming to "The Voice,"

I was still trying to find
my own self‐confidence.

So, you have to do school
and this?
Yes.

Wow.
Yeah.

It's, like, all these young
ones, I'm like, "Whoo!"

Anaya: I'm 16 years old.

I've sacrificed a lot
to get to this point.

I moved away from my family
at the age of 12

to go to performing‐arts school.

Living away from my mom
is very hard.

I also sacrificed being away
from my little sister.

When I moved to Georgia,
she was three years old.

I didn't get to see her
grow up in person.

I'm giving up all the usual
teenage‐girl stuff

to pursue my dreams.

♪ Don't wanna give

I didn't have your range

I had to work
very hard for that.

I just thought it would be fun
to kind of do one of her songs

Anaya's voice

And she's very confident.
I love that about her.

She's an incredible singer.

♪ Magnifying all our flaws ♪

Chelle is a really great singer
because she's got this

kind of jazz‐soul background,
and it looks effortless.

She's, like, a dark horse,
I think.

There was a lot of music going
on and no one was singing.

Yeah, that's...
Yes.

It's normally the part
when I'm onstage

and I just end up headbanging
the whole time.

It's, like, I like to call it
mosh pop.
[ Laughter ]

'Cause I definitely find myself
moshing for most of the song.

But I think it's beautiful.

I think, you know, when you're
doing the ad‐lib parts,

it ‐‐ it can also just be "oohs"
and "ahhs."

Yeah.
You know, you can experiment
with that.

And also
the song is quite vulnerable,

and I think there's strength
in vulnerability.

that you're singing it.
Yeah.

When you both get to the chorus,
it's so loud ‐‐

allow that to be a kind
of journey and a
trajectory to that point.

The song is essentially coming

Just make sure you're, you know,
out to the audience.

Me and Chelle have been working
very hard,

so I have the song down,
but now I feel like

it's just time to get
in the vibe of the song.

Don't think, just do.

You just want
that electricity

is losing their mind,

we get swayed.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Wow!

Oh, my God!

Yes!

Yes, yes, yes.
Yes, yes.

It was so good.

Hey, guys.

Hi.
Hi.

Blake:
Anaya, you have a very

diverse way of singing.

You can come in and out of all
different kinds of voices.

Your headvoice is strong,
your chest voice, your runs,

and that's impressive
for a 16‐year‐old.

Chelle, I feel like there were
parts of your performance

that got away from you
just a little bit.

You're probably so much better
when all these lights

and people are gone and stuff.
You know what I'm saying?

Anaya, I would probably
go with you.

Thank you.

Both of you
are excellent singers.

Chelle, I think, it was just
a little more, um, imprecise.

And you were going against
Anaya,

who, from the moment you walked
out here,

I was like,
"Okay, she's a star."

You were hitting
all kinds of acrobatics

that were extremely
impressive to me.

Thank you.

Can I ask you a question?
In your second performance,

did you feel
like a star yet?

I'm 37. I've been doing it for
17 years, and I still don't.

[ Laughter ]

We beg to differ, Kelly.

But I think
the point is real,

which is, Chelle,
this is the second time

I'm hearing you sing.

I think there's
real talent there.

You have a real gift.

And you gave us rocks last time,

which was so nice.

I really appreciated
the fool's gold.

Oh, she just pegged it,
didn't you?

[ Laughter ]

Anaya, at 16, I was not
as confident or comfortable,

and I was performing
on the Grammys.

Psshh!
Drop.

Um, the edge that you have
right now is real,

but I want to say,
Chelle, you're also amazing.

There's a lot of potential
because you're incredible.

Thank you.

Daly: Thank you, Coaches.

Alright, Kelly, you have
the final decision, of course.

What'd you think of
the battle?

You're both really great.

You both have completely
different tones, obviously,

but you both have
an amazing range.
Thank you.

And I wanted to see who was
gonna push themselves the most.

Regardless of
it's this show,

regardless of it's
whatever audition you go to,

make sure that you are
very confident

and you own
that moment each time.

Never rest,
or it won't happen,

'cause there's too many
talented people out there.

Kelly, tough decision.

Who's the winner
of this battle?

[ Dramatic music plays ]

The winner
of this battle is...

Anaya.

Anaya moves on
to the knockouts.

Congratulations!

[ Cheers and applause ]
I'm so, so proud of you.

Thank you.
Kelly: I had to pick Anaya,

because when it came down to it,
you know,

the nerves almost
pushed her to be even better.

Anaya is just
a perfect coachable artist.

Girl, you sang the hell
out of that damn song.

Thank you.
I mean, keep doing it
every week.

She doesn't ever get offended
by something.

She's almost, like, flattered
that someone cares enough

to really put their two cents
in,

and that is a really fun
person to work with.

And I'm honestly looking forward
to picking songs with Anaya.

Great job.

Anaya is special.

She's extremely gifted.

I think she's gonna be
one of Kelly's best artists.

Oh, my God. A tear!

I feel very proud of myself,
and I feel accomplished.

I'm so excited to keep working
with Kelly!

Coaches, let me remind
you that Chelle is
available to steal.

Chelle, anything you'd like
to say to your coach, Kelly?

Um, I just want to thank Kelly
for giving me this opportunity

and really believing in me that
I had the power to push myself

on this show,
so thank you so much.

You are very, very gifted.
Give it up again for Chelle,

ladies and gentlemen!

Kelly:
I was super bummed for Chelle,

because that was nowhere near
what Chelle is capable of.

She was a three‐chair turn.

Like, she definitely should
keep singing.

Anaya is insane.
She's good.

Her vocals ‐‐
I was like, "What?"

Yeah,
she's got real potential.

Yeah.
I'm like, "Wow."

you guys turn at each other

right now...

was a masterpiece, and you've
got to cut half of it off.

Joanna, when you started out,
I was like,

"Oh, I'm gonna pick her,"
and then, all of a sudden,

Roderick came and I went,
"Wait. What?"

And I was like, this is the kind
of performance

I want to see
on award shows.

It was flawless.

Joanna, you were a four‐chair
turn, and there's a little more

pressure because we're all like,
"Okay, do it again."

you did it again.

that coin, I said,

"Oh, this guy had one chair turn
around. I don't know."

of this situation.

I think, just because of
the shock factor,

maybe I'd pick Roderick.

Not only does the song
have quite a range,

but it also requires
a lot of grace and presence

and restraint,

which both of you showed me
in spades.

I was stunned that you could hit
all those low notes, Joanna,

and do all the things
you did up there.

It was like,
"What can she not do?"

I don't think we expected
so much from Roderick.

I would pick Joanna.

Nick: Killed it, dude.

Yes! Yes!

Yes, yes, yes!
That was really good.

What are you gonna do?

I don't know!

Nick: Mike! Zach!

Wow, that was a true battle.

I mean, I know you guys might be
friends now,

but that seemed like you were
both just

one‐upping each other
at every turn,

and it was exhilarating
to watch.
Yeah.

And also ‐‐
[ Cheers and applause ]

Thank you.

Also, shockingly confident.

Yeah.
And I don't know

what I would do
if I was John right now.

Why did you do this?

Like, there's ‐‐ Why did you put
both of these guys ‐‐

I have an embarrassment
of riches on my team.

You both have
a really incredible gift

at being intricate.

You were feeling yourself.

You were confidently ‐‐
I like it.

Confidence is awesome.

I will say, Zach,
you open your mouth,

and I'm just like,
"Wait, what?"

I just
don't expect the sound

to come out of you
that comes out of you.

But, Mike, oh, my gosh.

You were like, "Yes, ma'am,
I'm looking right at you."

And you were fearless
with it.

Like, "I will win
this staring contest."

I was looking ‐‐
[ Laughter ]

Whew, you're both gifted.

I don't have a favorite.

You guys are no help to me.

I know how John feels
right now

because sometimes you're in
this situation,

and there's a little part of me
that's like,

"I hope one of them screws up
a little bit,"

so it makes the decision
a lot easier.

Makes it easier,
makes it easier.
Right, right.

And, you guys, neither one of
you screwed up a little bit.

You know,
I feel like Mike ‐‐

the different places he can go
in his voice

and technically the things
that he can do,

it's overwhelming.

But when you have an artist
like Zach,

who basically came out here
and just kind of

kicked the door down and sang
the hell out of a song,

that's impressive.

So I‐I really do think it's just
finding what lane

is m‐maybe a little more open
on your team...

Mm‐hmm.
...and that's maybe who you
go with, I don't know.

Daly: Thank you, Coaches.
Thank you.

Alright, Johnny, give us some
thoughts before you tell us

who won.
Well, it's so interesting

because everyone's like,
"Oh, they look so confident,"

and remember
what we talked about.

I was a little concerned
you guys weren't giving me

that confidence, and Miguel ‐‐
he's sexy. He's got swagger.

I was sitting at the Grammys,

watching him perform it,
and like ‐‐

Ooh, me too.
Yeah, it was just incredible.

We have certain expectations
that this song needs to be

delivered convincingly,
and, wow,

you guys delivered it
convincingly.

Like, no question about it.

Thanks.
Thanks, John.

And you made my decision
exceptionally difficult.

Sucky.
It sucks.

Yeah.
It's sucky.

Sucky, yeah.
Sucky, sucky.

Daly: Alright, John,
I know you love them both,

but who is the winner
of this battle?

I'm going to make my decision
just based on, like,

an edge that I feel one of you
has when it comes to a tone

that I enjoy listening to
and just appeals to me by a hair

just slightly more because
nothing else really separated

you guys that much.

The winner of this battle
is Mike.

Daly:
Mike, congratulations.

You're moving on to
the knockouts.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Come here.
Thank you.

So good, so good.

John:
Mike just sounded perfect.

His voice sounded cool.
He was performing with swagger.

And everything that I was
missing in our early rehearsals,

he gave me that and more
in this performance.

Mike: Oh, my gosh.
Whoo!

I'm overwhelmed with joy.

I'm just happy to be going on
to the next round,

and I just can't wait
to get up there and do it again.

Coaches, let me remind
you that Zach is available
to steal or save.

Zach, what would you like to say
to your coach?

Oh, I just want to say thank you
so much for this opportunity.

Thank you.
This little gay boy
from Kentucky

and, like, having to come up
here and sing this Miguel song,

you know what I mean?
Like, that takes a lot of work.

You nailed it.
And I'm just really proud of
myself, and I'm so happy.

You should be.
Thank you.

Give it up for Zach Day!

Thank you.

Blake: I thought Mike and Zach
had an amazing performance.

There's no question about it,

but musically, I don't know
how much I would connect with

either one of the two of them,
to be honest with you,

and that's why
I didn't use a steal.

Blake just picks one word and
sticks with it and repeats it.

Every permutation
of that word.

Sucky.
Sucky.

Suckalicious.
Yeah.

Sucktacular.

Suckle.
Succulent.

Ooh, I love a succulent.

Oh, my God, hi, Levi.

Jamal: That was awesome.

To have someone like Bebe Rexha
say that you're cute,

I was super like, "Oh, okay.

Oh, alright. Alright, thanks."

I felt kind of cool
for a moment.

Can I tell you a little story?
You might find this interesting.

Yeah, yeah.
So, in our first
executive audition,

I wanted to warm up.

You know, everyone was nervous,
and I got my guitar,

and I was like, "Would anyone
like to sing 'Perfect' with me?"

And he was like,
"Yeah, I'll sing."

you're battling Levi Watkins.

I knew it.

I'm not psychic by any means,
but you can just see, like,

right off the bat, we connected.

I kind of see him
like my brother in a way.

I can't help it.
My brothers are younger.

I have a 16‐year‐old
and a 12‐year‐old brother

who's about to turn 13.

Right now, I help take care of
my brothers and my mom

I hit my button for you
'cause I believe in you

When Blake turned for me,
I was so close to crying

because he really gave me
that opportunity

to take my career
another step forward

and to provide for myself
and for my family.

Wait.
Where are you guys from?

Birmingham, Alabama.
Oh, my God. I love it there.

How do you like L. A.?
It's pretty cool.

Um, it's really dry,

and, um, there's no plastic
out here.

Like, they use paper straws.
[ Laughs ]

L. A.'s really different
from Birmingham because usually

at home I'd work at my dad's
Popsicle shop, actually.

He makes gourmet Popsicles
with all‐natural ingredients.

I don't eat a lot of
the Popsicles, though,

because I'm a type 1 diabetic,
but when I do,

I go all out
with the most sugar I can,

and that's like once a year.

This experience has been crazy.

Like, on the day of the blind
audition, I was so nervous.

My legs were shaking so bad.

When I saw
Mr. Blake's chair turn,

I was like, "I made it."

It was so cool.

Blake: When you guys
didn't turn around,

it was the worst move

of your entire "Voice" careers,
all of you.

I'm so grateful because it just
shows that he really believed

in what I could do,
and so I really want to show

that it was worth it.

Well,
let's do some music.

I love this song, you guys.

but I'm not that old ♪

♪ I'm young,

Blake: Levi and Jamal
are gonna be singing

"Counting Stars" by OneRepublic.

have a pop edge,

but they kind of have
rock‐sounding voices,

and that's why this song is
perfect for them.

Jamal is not afraid to go
for the big notes.

If he can hear the note,
he's gonna try to sing it.

That's what I respect
about his singing.

Hey, Jamal, I‐I know you're
hitting the notes.

Yeah.
There's got to be
a way for it to feel...

Less forced.
...like ‐‐ Exactly.

You need to, like, sing it in,
like, a very loose way.

Breath is just
very important there.
Mm‐hmm.

Jamal: To be coached by the best
in the business was awesome

because when you have
an environment

that puts so much stress on you
and you have so many

professional people around you,
it really forces you to go from

being a rock
to a polished diamond.

Levi, I can tell already
that you have a lower range,

but it's so beautiful.

But the verse feels too low
to me.

Can you go into falsetto though?
Uh...

[ Vocalizes ]

[ Vocalizes,
voice cracks ]

No, he can't.
You know, he's in that stage.

Yeah, yeah.
He needs to be an octave up.

you can ‐‐ we can go from there.

Levi: It's intimidating
to go up against Jamal.

to its full potential,
I don't think yet.

Whoo! That ending.
Whoa.

Yeah.
Hold up a minute, Levi.

Yes.
Why can't you sing like that?

That last chorus,
do it like that.

Every time.
Yeah.

When Levi jumped the octave,
it was like the "aha" moment.

It was so good.

I just can't believe
that he's a 14‐year‐old.

Probably felt like you were
hitting something

that you don't normally go for,
but trust me.

starts to shred it.

Uh‐huh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Just keep in mind
"I'm singing to people."

Don't just be, you know,
statue guy standing there.

The thing
that he has on you ‐‐

his range is way up there,
you know?

Yeah.
And so that's what's gonna

make this a‐a fun battle.

The only person it's gonna suck
for is me

'cause I got to figure this out,
you know?

Good luck to you on
figuring this one out.
Yeah, right. I know.

This sucks.

You know, both of these guys
are kind of pushed out of

their comfort zone as far as
the key, as far as the range.

Thanks, Blake.
So whichever one of these guys

can step up to the plate
and s‐sound comfortable

singing the song is probably
gonna be the one that wins.

You two were so fun to watch.

Both: Thank you.

Jamal, what I liked about
your voice was your higher end

and some of those notes
you were hitting,

but I‐I felt like there was
a lot of imprecision.

And, Levi, wow.

Hearing somebody
with your low range

is already pretty stunning,
and then it makes you think,

"Well, he probably can't hit
any higher notes,"

but then you hit some
really great high stuff, too,

and I kept waiting for you
to mess up, honestly,

because I was like,
"He's a kid.

He's probably gonna mess
something up."

And you just ‐‐
He didn't mess up.

It was, like ‐‐
It was really good.
He didn't mess up.

Thank you, Mr. John.
I would definitely

lean toward Levi

Thank you.

You know what? I'm actually
kind of mad right now.

I'm trying to figure out, Levi,
why you're not on my team.

Oh, I know why. You didn't push
your button for him.

T‐That ‐‐
Well, here's ‐‐ here's the deal.

we're shortchanging Jamal

a tiny bit here because I think
what I loved about listening

to you is it was
really adventurous.

he gonna go?"

And it wasn't executed
perfectly, but you know what?

I'd take passion over perfection
every time,

and I‐I loved your energy, and
I thought it was really good.

Thank you.
Daly: Thank you, Coaches.

Alright, Blake, you got
the final decision.

Give us some thoughts first.
My favorite thing that happened

was right when
this song started,

Jamal has this way of performing
where, you know,

suddenly he's, like, flailing
around and bouncing around

onstage, and then Levi kind of
looks over and is like,

"Oh, is that what we're doing?
I'll do it, too."

It's like ‐‐
That is so true.

It literally is
the little‐brother thing.

It's like, "Oh, that's how you
do this."

[ Laughter ]

Jamal, you know, I wonder
if that played into

some of the pitch issues,
the running around,

and sometimes you get out of
breath, and ‐‐ and it just ‐‐

it happens, you know, because
I didn't hear it especially

in our last rehearsal ‐‐
I really felt like

if that would've been
the performance

you would've
given up here today,

you would be hearing
completely different comments

up and down the line here,
you know.

Thank you.
Levi, I don't want to keep

harping on
the 14‐years‐old thing,

but that just adds to the
impressiveness of what you do.

You sound like you've been
singing together for years.

We were very lucky to be
brothers, so it's easy for us

to be able to work together
day in and day out,

and how you figured that out
by yourself,

that's really impressive,
and just continue that.

One note for you,
Allegra.

On that first line...
♪ Oh, I lose control ♪

...you coming in soft,
it's okay,

because when you hit
that big note

on the second half of the first
verse, it's so impressive,

and you're like,
"Oh, wow!"

Also maybe just enunciating
a little bit more

so we can understand
what you're trying to say.

The lyrics, gotcha, thank you.
Yeah.

Michael, the one thing that you
did when you did, like,

a mic‐move thing,
I would just stay on it...

Alright.
...'cause it shows that you're

feeling uncomfortable,
like you might not hit it.

I'd rather
you go for it on mic

and it not come out exactly
the way you hoped it would...

Yeah.
...than to be
m‐maneuvering around it.

Michael, have you done
theater before?

I've been doing theater
since I was about 8 years old.

That's what I thought.
I actually just did "Les Mis,"
like, last November.

Nice. That's awesome.
Yeah. Valjean.

It's amazing to have a coach
in my genre

because not only
did he start young,

but he started in theater.

When I was younger, I worked
my way up to be able to land

big roles in community theater.

To have Nick come from the roots
I have come from

makes his coaching method
more personal.

♪ And I believe ♪

The day of my audition,
I was full of nerves.

It was like...
I'm getting a chance

that not a lot of people do.

♪ Oh, I believe ♪

Nick: My falsetto is something
I had to work hard at.

We could work
on technique for hours,

but I think the best thing
is just...

♪ Gonna be for us to sing
in our falsetto ♪

Whoo!
And just do that for hours.

It was so cool to have Nick
help me with falsetto,

and so I was able to go home
and practice my high range.

To show him that I worked
very hard on that,

to continue with Nick
would mean the world to me

to work under
that sort of mentor.

How do you guys usually
approach, like,

breathy falsettos,
especially on the first line?

♪ Oh, it's you ♪

Anytime you have
[exhales] breath going out

and you're trying to pop up
to a higher note,

what I tend to think about
is smiling.

♪ Oh, it's you ♪

'Cause you can actually
not push out as much breath

and keep it in
so you can use it later on.

♪ Oh, it's you,
oh, it's you ♪
Better.

Yeah.
The smile helps.

♪ Oh, it's you ♪

Michael:
Going from chest to very breathy
falsetto takes a lot of control.

That's something
that I want to nail

and bring to the table
to the best of my abilities.

♪ How will I know ♪

Allegra:
How you're interacting with
your partner is a big thing.

Even though it is a slow,
sadder song,

Michael and I
were playing off each other

and smiling because even in
the lowest moments,

there is some joy there.

Kevin: When you guys turned to
each other in that first part ‐‐

oh, mm.
It's awesome.

I'm so happy
you're on my team.

I thought, "Okay, we're gonna
prep for

an emotionally
connected song."

You guys turned it into
a joyous occasion,

which is really phenomenal,

and I'm very proud of you
for surprising me

with something that just
blew me away,

and I think the more you lean
into that and the fun

of you guys just enjoying
the ride, the better.

I thought I saw the cream of
the crop already today.

That was just, like, pbht.

That was awesome.

One of you
is getting stolen.

Yes!
Unless you save.

Unless I s‐‐
And if not by them,

by me and Joe,
so we'll...

Oh, there you go.
I got this label I'm working on.

Just let me know.
For sure.

Allegra and Michael put
the biggest smile on my face.

There's something so powerful
about their duet.

It's hard to deny how talented
they both are.

Keep it up.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.

I don't know what
you're gonna do.

We screamed with
the Jonas Brothers, like...

It was cool.
It was really cool.

That was all I ever wanted
in life.

♪♪♪

Oh, yeah.
I love this performance.

Can't pick favorites.

♪ This love is strong ♪

♪ Why do I feel weak? ♪

♪ If you love me ♪

I'm blown away
by this performance.

It makes me feel like an idiot
for putting them together,

and I think it's gonna shock
the other coaches.

It's really great to watch
two artists

who have actually grown together
as a unit.

I love the staging, but it'll be
nice to feel just a‐a little bit

more separation between you guys
so when you come back

it's that
much more powerful.

Got you.
And I think part of it's

gonna be physically selling
some of these high notes.

Right.
Yeah.
Getting down is great

because it feels that
much more impactful.

Yeah.
Just give us a little bit

of something that shows
that you're digging for it.

Nick: They're both
so incredibly talented.

I already feel really connected
to them as well,

and you build this friendship
and working relationship

where you're all giving all you
can to make the best it can be.

[ Sighs ]

I'm gonna have to pick one.

How?

To say goodbye to somebody

is not something I'm emotionally
prepared for just yet.

It's a tough job.

Wow!

That was really good.

Awesome.

Oh, my gosh!
That was so good!

I don't know why they're not
standing. They're dumb.

That was so good.
That was so good.

What a great pairing.

Wow, Michael,
you came in strong!

When he started out,
I was like, "Oh, my God."

He kept going higher.

I can see obviously
why Nick turned.

Falsetto is very much
that lane for him.

I heard a lot of Nick up
in there.

Yeah, it was good.

You have a magnificent tool
for a voice.

And how you switch
from your chest to your nose

to your falsetto, it's just
all really, really nice.

Allegra, I am in love
with your voice.

Your tone, like,
already tells a story,

and you have this thing
where you kind of bite down

and you almost sing, like,
through your tee‐‐

and it's, like,
really cool.

I know that y'all are just
little babies compared to me,

but, like,
I grew up on this song.

It was an all‐skate.
Oh, my gosh.

And I'm gonna have to say I love
both of you, but, man, Nick,

Allegra's tone,
that's a finale tone.

That's a good tone.
That's a good tone.

[ Applause ]

Congratulations on a killer
battle performance.

It wasn't a battle.
It was just a great duet.

I mean, truly was.

You can tell that you two have
created a friendship,

and you can see that
when you perform,

and you can tell you're
rooting for each other.

Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe you're
both like, "ha, ha."

John: They're just
an excellent actors.

Michael, I mean,
you're a great singer,

and ‐‐ and everything that Kelly
said is spot on.

Allegra, I've been making
records 20 years now,

I've been doing this, and not
that often somebody like you

comes along that has a special,
unique tone

and your sound
is so cool.

So I would pick Allegra.

Uh, I think they're both great,
though.

Thank you.
This was lovely for us to watch

and listen to.

Doing that song
and this version

introduces some extra cool
to the performance.

Michael, I definitely got
some Nick vibes

when you first came in ‐‐
I was like, "That's Nick Jonas.

Sounds like Nick Jonas," which
is definitely a compliment.

Thank you. It is, yeah.
You have range, you have, uh,

power and control,
all the things you want

from a great singer.

And, Allegra, the singers
that really connect the most

in this world are those with a
tone that's special and magical,

and I feel like, Allegra,
you have that.

Both of you
are excellent singers.

Thank you so much.
Daly: Thank you, Coaches.

Alright, Nick, you've got
the final decision,

but before we find out the
winner, give us some thoughts

on the battle.
From the moment I heard you sing

this arrangement in that mentor
session with my brothers,

we all stopped and said, "Wow,
we just witnessed

something really special."

I know this is a battle,
but I'm blown away at the level

at which you guys connected ‐‐
you made this song your own.

That arrangement
that you came up with

spoke to every single person
in this place,

which makes having to make
a decision that much harder.

It's a tough one for you, Nick.
Yeah.

Who is the winner
of this battle?

[ Sighs ]

Um...

I‐I think I have to go with ‐‐
with a‐a gut feeling here.

Um...

♪♪♪

...the winner
of this battle...

is Allegra.

Allegra, Congratulations!

You are moving on.

Oh, my God.
They crushed it.

But I had to go with Allegra

because she's
an inspiring vocalist,

and on top of that,
she's a storyteller.

I see her getting to the final
in this show.

Coaches, let me remind
you, Michael is available
to steal or save.

Michael, anything you want
to say to your coach?

Yeah, Nick, thank you so much,
um, for being my coach.

I just really appreciate
all the notes.

Thank you so much
for this opportunity.

Give it up for Michael Williams,
ladies and gentlemen!

[ Cheers and applause ]

There it is!

Let's go!
The save!

Yes!

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!

Nick Jonas saves Michael,

who now joins the four‐way
knockout representing Team Nick!

It was crazy! I'm so grateful
to Nick right now.

Nick, I thought you
broke your button, you
hit it so hard there.

I‐I thought I did, too.
What did you hear in Michael

that made you want
to use it on him?

It's what I heard today.

It's what I heard the first day
I heard you sing.

I'm so impressed by you,

and there was no way
you were leaving today.

You're on Team Nick.
Let's go.

Congratulations!

Michael is incredible.

I was so nervous that someone
was gonna swoop in

and steal him,
and so I was over the moon.

He's gonna represent Team Nick
in that four‐way knockout,

which is gonna be insane.

This is actually great.
I really want you to
write songs in that.

[ Laughter ]
Call your album "Nick's Notes."

Next year, when you're accepting
your ‐‐ your next Grammy...

For "Nick's Notes," the album.
..."I wanna thank Blake Shelton

for my Nick's Notes."
For my ‐‐ my notepad.

"For reminding me
what a stage was."
