Man: Stand by.

I am so nervous going
into the playoffs right now!

This is the biggest moment
of my life.

Team Reba and Gwen playoffs
start now.

**

Team Reba is looking stacked up.

Team Gwen is full of threats.

Gwen:
Each coach can only bring

three artists to the lives.

I mean, how brutal is that?

Oh, my God. I think
I'm having a heart attack.

Reba: I have wonderfully
talented people,

but Tom had to leave
for personal reasons,

so I only have
five artists tonight.

My team is gonna
light the stage on fire.

You better watch.

**

Well, it's an early morning here
at "The Voice."

I'm so excited.
It's the playoff rounds.

My motto is, "If you're
not first, you're last."

So I get here early.
[ Laughs ]

I love to get --

[ Ding! ]

Gwen, what are you
doing here?!

Well, you know
what they say.

If you're not first,
you're last.

Oh, my gosh.
That's mymotto.

Mm. Well, are you
excited for today?

I'm nervous.
I need emotional support.

Oh, my gosh.
I'm dying.

No.
I don't know
what I'm gonna do.

Wow.
I don't either.

It's -- Wait.
What the hell?!

What?
Look at your nails!

Oh. We're twinsies!

Oh, my God! Those look
so good on you!

Thank you!

I wore these
in support of you.

Aww.
Girl power today.

Because you and I are
doing the playoff rounds.

I know.
Let's go do it.

Let's do this.
[ Sighs ]

I'm gonna be counting on you
to support me, Reba.

[ Mouthing words ]
My emotional state.

Reba: There she is!

Jordan: Hey! Whew!

Good to hear
an Oklahoma accent.

[ Laughs ]

They don't know
how to talk out here, do they?

They don't. They don't.

They don't understand
a word I say, either.

Jordan is a force of nature.

She is a great singer,
great performer, great musician.

And she brings this persona
that nobody else has.

Reba: So you're gonna do
"Boondocks."

Yes, ma'am.
Little Big Town.

Yes, ma'am.
Love that song.

I've always loved
that song.

Like, I love swampy music,
you know?
Me too.

Anything that kind of starts
with a four on the floor

and has some picking going,
man, I just love that.
Yeah.

* I feel no shame *

* I'm proud of
where I came from *

* I was born and raised
in the boondocks, hah *

Coming from where I come from,
Atoka, Oklahoma,

that's red-dirt country.

I grew up
down a little dirt road

in the boondocks around horses
and coyotes and snakes

and all those kind of things
in a little log house.

When you're a little kid,
you're taught, like,

"Hey, you don't go outside
without your boots on

'cause if the grass is a little
too tall, you get snake bit."

There's a lyric
in that song that says,

"I can feel that muddy water
running through my veins."

I was born on the Red River.

That Red River mud
is thick in my bones.

* No matter where I go,
I keep my heart and soul *

I'm gonna have to sing
like I've never sung before,

and I'm gonna have to
show those four coaches

that I can deliver
when the pressure's on.

* I keep my heart and soul *

* In the boondocks, hah *

Hey!
I didn't know what I was
gonna do about that end part.

[ Laughs ]
It'll be magical.

And I love you're
playing the banjo.
Oh, thank you.

Can you play right
before the modulation?

And then when you go back
into it, the band drops out,

it might be a good idea
for you to go a cappella

and not play
the banjo there.

You're right.
Absolutely.

I was really grateful for Reba's
feedback on the arrangement

and the structure
because there's not a better

female entertainer in the world,
in my opinion.

It's something that'll be
with me the rest of my life.

I think you're ready.
I'm looking forward to it.

Not only are you a good singer
and a performer and entertainer,

you're totally different
from anything

I've ever seen
on "The Voice."
Thank you.

Jordan knows exactly
what she wants

and how she wants to do it.

She's witty.
She's got a different look.

And we need her
in country music.

If there's ever a time
for me, it's now.
Yep. Absolutely.

So hopefully America
feels the same way.

Feeling they're gonna
be loving you.

I hope so. If they got
any sense, they would.

[ Laughs ]

With "Boondocks,"
here's Jordan Rainer.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

Come on!

* I feel no shame *

* I'm proud
of where I came from *

* I was born and raised
in the boondocks, hah *

* I can feel that *

* Muddy water
running through my veins *

* I can hear that *

* Lullaby of a midnight train *

* And it sings to me
and it sounds familiar *

* I feel no shame *

* I'm proud of
where I came from *

* I was born and raised
in the boondocks, hah *

* One thing I know,
no matter where I go *

* I keep my heart and soul
in the boondocks *

**

* 'Cause it's where
I learned about Jesus *

* And knowin' where I stand *

* You can take it or leave it *

* This is me, this is who I am *

**

Hey!
* Oh *

* I feel no shame *

* I'm proud of
where I came from *

* I was born and raised
in the boondocks *

**

* One thing I know,
no matter where I go *

* I keep my heart and soul *

* In the boondocks *

* I keep my heart and soul *

* In the boondocks *

* That's right *

* I keep my heart
and s-o-o-o-oul *

* In the boondocks *

Hah!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Daly: And like that,
the playoffs are off to a...

Off to the races!

...fantastic start!
Oh, yeah!

Niall, we'll start
with you.

Oh, Jordan.
That was so good.
Hello.

Every time you come
out here, it feels like
you're a gig already.

Thank you.
Like, to have that natural stage
presence every single week.

Vocally, musically,

everything is perfect
every time.

So good. So good.
Thank you so much.

You have to go through!

Daly: Gwen?
I really love
the performance.

And I think that
that song felt so "you."

And today was just
right on the nail.

Like, you had so much control
over that song, with your voice,

the way you played it,
everything.

I loved every second of it.

Thank you, Gwen.

John: You know,
what Gwen was just saying

I think is what is starting
to differentiate

people who deserve
to be in the lives --

is when we have a clear sense
of who they are

and the artists have
a clear sense of who they are.

And, Jordan, you've been doing
that this entire competition.

It's so clear.
It's so compelling.

We all want to watch you.

This may be
a controversial statement,

but this is also
your best outfit

of the competition
so far.

Thank you.
I feel pretty.

Well, the coaches
have spoken.

Coach Reba, what did you think
of Jordan?

So proud.
Gwen: Aww!

You represent Southeastern
Oklahoma so well

with your humor, your
great attitude, your look,

your talent,
your versatility.

Thank you so much.
Thank you.

Daly: Gonna be
a tough decision coming up.

How about another big hand
for Jordan Rainer, everybody?

[ Cheers and applause ]
Reba: Jordan is a pro at this.

She knows what she's doing, and
she gives it to the audience.

Good job, girl!
Yes, Jordan!

What I've always said is
I want my artists to move me,

to entertain me,
make me feel something.

That's who will be going on
to the live shows.

And then it's up to America.

Oh, my gosh.
Why am I so danged emotional?

Y'all say something funny.

This is just
the beginning, Reba.

[ Laughter ]
Daly: Coming up...

* Never break the chain *

...Reba and Gwen's teams
rise to the occasion.

* Just rain down on me *

If you don't go to the lives,
Reba's getting fired.

Yeah! They're gonna take
her crown and her scepter.

[ Laughter ]

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

Alright, Reba,
you were able to bring back

an artist as your Super Save.

How did you come
to your decision?

It was an undeniable decision
that I had to make.

Just too good to send home.
They had to come back.

[ Cellphone ringing ]
Reba: Hey, there!

There's been a little new twist
here at "The Voice."

Each of the coaches
get to bring one person back.

Ms. Monét, I chose you.

What?!

I could pull from anybody on
any of the four coaches' teams.

But Ms. Monét is totally
different from anybody else.

* Goin' in and out of changes *

She's R&B, soul,
and she's stage-savvy.

So glad
to have you back!

Oh, it's so good
to be back!

Ms. Monét is
my Super Save superstar.

It was so much fun
to call you.

Oh, my God.

When I found out
I was a Super Save,

I just completely lost it.

I just bawled
like a newborn baby.

I am just so thankful
for Reba McIntyre.

You've been
a background singer,

harmony singer
for how long?

Man, I've been singing
background professionally

for over 30-some years.

Boz Scaggs, Michael McDonald,
Queen Latifah.

Yeah, but you got
any bignames?

Well, you know, I haven't
sung for Reba McIntyre yet.

Ha! Got to
make that happen.

* Though you don't
call me anymore *

* I sit and wait *

I'm singing
"Until You Come Back to Me"

by the amazing queen,
Ms. Aretha Franklin.

We're gonna have fun
with this one.

* 'Til you come back
to me *

Reba:
I think it's the perfect song.

It's got range.
It's got attitude.

And that's what she has.

* I've got to make you see
that I-I-I-I *

Ms. Monét: My personal goal
was to get to the lives.

And so here I am,
a step away from that.

I know what it's gonna take
for me to meet my goal.

Whoo! Amazing. Amazing.
Thank you so much.

That's a true performer.

And the attitude.
You're like, "Unh-unh."

[ Laughter ]

It's gonna be on 10
that day. Watch.

I've just been schooled.
Thank you so much.

I don't have a note.

I need to takenotes,
is what the deal is.

One performance before
live shows for the playoffs,

so I think what Ms. Monét
needs to do is to get out there

and communicate
with that audience

and bring something
that they want.

Glad to have you back.
My Super Save.
Thank you.

Give that inner Ms. Monét.

With "Until You Come Back to Me
(That's What I'm Gonna Do)",

here's Ms. Monét.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Ms. Monét:
It's just soul music, y'all!

**

* Though you don't call me
anymore *

* I sit and wait in vain *

**

* I guess I'll knock
on your door *

* Your door *

* Tap on your window pane *

* Tap on your window pane *

* Now, listen *

* I wanna tell you, baby *

* Changes I've been
going through, huh *

* Missing you, listen, you *

* 'Til you come back to me *

* That's what I'm gonna do *

* Hey *

**

* Living for you, my dear *

* Is like living in a world
of constant fear *

* Hear my plea *

* Hear my plea *

* I've got to make you see *

* That o-o-o-o-our love
is dying *

* Although your phone
you ignore *

* Somehow I must, hah *

* Somehow I must,
I must explain *

* I'm gonna rap on your door *

* Your door *
* Hey, hey *

Whoa!

* Tap on your
window pane *

* Tap on your window pane *

* See, I'm gonna
camp on your steps *

* Until I get through to you *

* I got to ch-a-a-ange
your view, baby *

* 'Til you come back to me *
* Whoooooo *

* That's what I'm gonna do *

* That's what I'm gonna do *

* Hey, hey *

* Baby, baby, ooh *

* 'Til you come *

* Back to me *

* That's what
I'm gonna do-o-o-o-o *

* Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh *

* Gonna do *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Team Reba. That is Ms. Monét,
ladies and gentlemen!

Wowee!

Thank God you're back.

Whoo!
Thanks to the Super Save.

Great performance.

Ms. Monét, you've been
such a gift to this show.

My only concern
with this performance --

it felt like you were doing
a lot of things.

But I felt like if you
dialed it back a little bit,

it would have been
a little more true to the song.

But you're so good,
and you wanted to show everybody

how good you were,
and you did.

Thank you.
Daly: Niall.

Niall: I'm such
a huge fan of yours.

It was such an amazing way
to pay homage to Aretha,

but also stick a bit
of Ms. Monét on it.

I think you took a lot of
confidence from the Super Save,

and you were like,

"Now I realize why I'm here."
Exactly.

Because that was the most
confident I've seen you.

That was an amazing
performance.
Thank you.

Alright, Coach.
Thank you.

Reba, how could you have
too much of a good thing?

What'd you think?

Ms. Monét, to watch you
walk on the stage,

I was just so proud
to know you.

Thank you.

You have so much
to teach all of us.

I'm just so tickled to pieces
you're back and on my team.

And I loved
your performance.

It was just
absolutely beautiful.

That was for you.

How about another big hand for
Ms. Monét, ladies and gentlemen?

John: Reba's already
so emotional.

There's gonna be
a lot of crying.

Niall: I'm so glad
that Reba had a Super Save

and brought back Ms. Monét.

Every time she steps out there,
she just gives so much.

And tonight she really looked
like she was fighting for it.

You go, girl. Love ya.
John: Yes, Ms. Monét.

I had to make this decision
last week, and it's not easy,

so I'm definitely
feeling for Reba

'cause she's got one heck
of a decision coming up.

Oh, man.
Yeah.

It's kind of like
first night out on tour.

You're pushing.
Oh, my God.

And about the fourth song,
you're like,

"Would you just
take a breath?"

She can sing, man.

Unbelievable.
Loved it.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly:
Welcome back to the playoffs.

Oh, one of the best songs
of all time coming up next.

Oh, yeah.

I've had artists
sing this song.

I love when artists
do this song.

Me too.

Guess what song
I'm gonna be singing.

Um, I don't know.

I'm gonna be singing
Fleetwood Mac, "The Chain."

[ Gasps ]
I love that song, Mama!

I know you do!
[ Laughs ]

Do you think
I can go to lives?

Yeah, I bet you can
win the whole thing.

Yeah. You think so?
Yeah.

I'm gonna try. Thank you, honey.
You're so sweet. Aww.

Reba: Hey, Jacquie!
Jacquie: Hi, Reba!

You look
so pretty today.

Thanks. My mom
bought this for me.

Mamas know best,
don't they?
I know.

I like Jacquie's enthusiasm.

She's got great stage presence.

She's a strong woman singer,

and she's very confident
on stage.

You're gonna do
a Stevie Nicks song,

but you're gonna do it
a little different.

I am. I really heavily want
to pursue rock country.

I started singing just
national anthems everywhere.

Like you.
Yeah. Yeah.

One day, I was like, "You know
what? I need to get a band."

My boyfriend was like,
"Go get one."

And we put together a band, and
I used to sing this with them.

Eventually the band dissolved
and I decided to go solo.

So I'm doing
the solo version of this.

This is me.

This is not Lace and Thorn.
This is Jacquie Roar.

Lace and Thorn
was the name of your band?

Yes.
Love that!

I know. It was a really cool
band, actually.

It was very
Fleetwood Mac-ish.

* And if you don't love me now *

* You will never love me again *

Lace and Thorn
opened up the door for me.

It opened my eyes to what kind
of a performer I really am.

Now here I am,
right before playoffs.

I can't believe
I've made it this far,

and I have
so much confidence in me now

that I've never had before.

And it's off stage.
It's, like, mind-blowing to me.

This has been
an incredible experience.

* Ch-a-a-a-a-ain *

Bravo! Sang your butt off
on that one. Wow!

I want to be
real explosive, you know?

Yeah, yeah.

So, what are you thinking,
choreography-wise?

I usually just let the stage
take me somewhere.

The only thing
I would know to use.

On that --
* You don't love me now *

That is giving you
a good march.

And it's a firm,
strong gesture.

Gotcha.

We're going in this
together, girl.

I've always wanted
to be on "The voice."

I've always wanted
to have this moment.

Love you.

Thank you, Reba.
Alright.

You're gonna see me in lives!
I freaking know it!

I just know it!

Singing "The Chain,"
here's Jacquie Roar.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* Listen to the wind blow *

* Watch the sun rise *

**

* Running in the shadows *

* Damn your love,
damn your lies *

**

* Break the silence *

* Damn the dark *

* Damn the light *

* And if you don't love me now *

* You will never love me again *

* I can still hear you saying *

* You would never
break the chain *

* And if you don't love me now *

* You don't love me now *

* You will never love me again *

* I can still hear you saying *

* You would never
break the chain *

* And if you don't love me now *

* You don't love me now *

* You will never love me again *

* I can still hear you saying *

* You would never break *

* Never break the ch-a-a-a-ain *

Yeah, Jacquie!

* Chain keep us together *

* Chain keep us together *

* Whoa, oh-oh *

* Ch-a-a-a-ain *

* And if you don't love me now *

* You will never love me again *

* I can still hear you saying *

* You would never break *

* Never break the chain *

Jacquie!
Yo!

Daly:
That is Jacquie Roar...

Yes!
...for Team Reba!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Whoo!

John, talk to us.

This is my favorite
Jackie performance so far.

Easy. Easily.
It was so good.

[ Cheers and applause ]

You made such an emphatic
statement on your behalf

with this performance.
You were so tasteful

in everything you did
with the arrangement.

I absolutely
loved it.

Thank you!
[ Laughs ]

Daly: You remember your
former coach, Gwen Stefani?

Gwen?
Yes, Miss Gwen.

John: Ohh.

I'm, like, sitting here going,
"Who are you, Gwen Stefani?

Like, how could you
let her go to Reba?

Like, you're so dumb."

Thank you, thank you.

You just never seem
to look nervous.

You know exactly
what you're doing.

To be able to take that song
and make it into, like,

the perfect "Voice"
competition moment...

And you kept turning up
the gears higher and higher

and louder and stronger.

And it was amazing.
And you look beautiful tonight.

Absolutely beautiful.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.

Yes, Jacquie.

Alright.
Now your coach, Reba.

Jacquie, I was drawed up
in a knot

when you started
walking up those stairs

and then singing that
one part right on pitch.

You went from that big,
big note back to this,

which is very hard to do.

Nailed it.

Thank you so much.
Wow!

Daly: Give it up one more time
for Jacquie Roar

from Team Reba.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Thank you!

Yes!

Jacquie has grown so much.

Oh, my gosh. I was so proud
of her performance.

She brought her "A"-game.

When you're confident
in who you are,

you know who you are
as an artist.

And that's who will be going on
to the live shows.

But with Jordan, Ms. Monét,
and then Jacquie --

three different performers,
different styles.

Y'all pray for me.

That was crazy.

Best arrangement of the season.
That was crazy.

Wow!
Geez. That was good.

That was by far her best
performance of the whole season.

Just earning it
on the stage.

Yeah. She's a show dog.
Mm-hmm.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly:
Welcome back to the playoffs

at Universal Studios Hollywood.

Man, it is so nice
to just chill

and watch Gwen and Reba
agonize over today.

We get to just relax, man.
I know. Totally.

You think they think they have
better teams than us?

Reba: Yeah.

[Chuckling] Gwen actually thinks
that she can win this thing.

[ Laughs ]

Well, she is an icon.
She has won the show before.

Yeah. That's true.

And Reba's -- I mean,
she is the queen of country.

So many hits.
A massive audience.

It's pretty undeniable.

**

Are you worried?

Pfft!

Nah. Pfft.

Pfft!

Pfft!

Mehr!
Ehh!

Mnh-mnh-mnh!

Ha! Ha!

They have no chance, man!
They have no chance.

No chance, buddy. Ha.
Not a chance.

Should we just go on and
pretend they're not threats?

Yeah, yeah.
They're not threats.
Let's just do that.

We got this.
Let's go!

Reba: I love Noah because
I love his vocal range.

His tone
is in the country realm,

but he's more folksy
than real country.

You're just too good
to go home.

Oh. Thank you.
I appreciate that.

And I was thrilled
to get to steal you.

I thought for sure
I was headed home.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Reba turned around,
then John turned around.

I got to make the hometown
proud. I'm going with Reba here.

Queen Reba
steals Noah!

I'm coming here representing
Richlands, Virginia.

I stepped on an airplane
for the first time.

Now, having been here
and working with

Niall Horan and Reba,

it's just more than I ever
could have imagined.

When I saw this song, "Jolene,"
that you wanted to do today,

I thought, "You're gonna
do Dolly's 'Jolene'?"

And it's totally different.

No, not quite
the same one.

* Jolene *

* I ain't about to
go straight *

For playoffs,
I'll be singing "Jolene"

by Ray LaMontagne.

Coming from a small town,
about 5,000 people,

growing up,
I never really saw people

pursuing careers in music,

and I knew it was always
something that I wanted to do,

and I've never really had
an idea how to do it.

* I, I still don't know *

* I still don't know
what love means *

And the fact
that I am here now

makes me want to keep pushing
and make it as far as I can,

so hopefully you all see me
at the lives.

Very nice.

Now, this is the first time
we get to work together.

Yep.
You've got a great voice.

Your eyes are
another communicator.

I'm your audience.

You looked everywhere
in this room except here.

And you're telling a story
to your audience.

And so you look at me.
You tell me a line.

You tell her a line
or him a line.

And when it's sad,
you're sad.

When it's uplifting,
smile about it

and let that smile
show in your eyes.

And when you smile when
you sing, I can hear it.

It's a great song for him to do.
It's right in his wheelhouse.

I think what Noah needs to do to
make it to the live performance

is really bring out
that inner self and give more.

It was nice to finally
get to meet you and stuff.
I know.

And I've seen you up
on the stage.

Noah: There is a lot more to me
than meets the eye.

There's a lot more artistry
inside of me

that I haven't shown yet
on this show.

Us coaches, you're
just standing there

waiting on somebody
to come by and say hi.

I appreciate you.
Thank you.

I'm gonna go out there
and do what I can,

and we're gonna see
what happens.

With "Jolene,"
here's Noah Spencer.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Whoo!

* Jolene *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Alright!

**

Ah, man.
Way to go!

Alright. Let's start with your
former coach, Niall Horan.

Niall?
Hey, Noah, man.

What's going on, man?
It's good to see you, bud.

I'm so glad that Reba
was able to steal you

because you're such
an amazing talent.

Your voice is so unique
in this competition,

and I love that song on you.
I thought you were able to show

all the different parts
of your voice,

that kind of raspy edge
that we like

and then also the softer side
there towards the end.

It was a really, really
super-impressive performance.

Great job, Noah.
Thank you.

Daly: Gwen.

I feel like every time
we, like,

sit here
and talk with you,

there's this mysterious thing.
I don't know.

I know you're not
saying anything,

but there's just energy,
but when you're performing,

I feel like I get to know you
a little bit more.

Like, you are so available
through the songs.

And I just believe you so much
when you're up there.

You're just a really,
really great artist.

Thank you so much.

Alright, Noah, let's hear what
your coach thought. Reba?

Noah, Noah, Noah.

[ Laughter ]

You turned it up
from zero to 10

from rehearsals.

Oh, my gosh.

I tried. I tried.

Which makes it
even tougher for me

'cause I only get
to choose three people.

But, my gosh.
What a performance, Noah.

Way to go.
I'm so proud of you.

Thank you so much.
Congratulations.

Daly: Reba with a big decision
coming up.

But give it up
for Noah Spencer one more time!

Good job, Noah.
Thank you.

Noah really did surprise me.

Great job, Noah.
I was blown away.

He's different
from everybody on my team.

The only male.
I love the grit in his voice.

Every quality of a great singer,
he's got.

[ Chuckles ]
He's so good.

Boy, I don't know.
This is gonna be so hard.

Dang!

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

I'm 16 years old.
I'm not ready to get my license.

So I'm just gonna go ahead
and have my parents

drive me around
until I win "The Voice."

[ Yodeling ]

Reba: I love everything
about Ruby Leigh.

We all know she can yodel.

She's got that magical
Patsy Cline break in her voice.

She is so smart
for a 16-year-old, so talented.

She's an old soul, and she is
a true fan of country music.

You can see it when she sings.

Reba: You know, Ruby,
it's so funny.

You're 16,
and all I could think of

when I was 16 was getting
my driver's license.

Do you have your
driver's license?

I have my permit.
Close enough.

Close enough? Okay.

I'm on the road,
so they better watch out.

[ Laughter ]

* Love will abide *

* Take things in stride *

Ruby: For the playoffs,
I will be singing

"Long Long Time"
by Linda Ronstadt.

I don't know if I can
really connect to it

because, you know, I haven't
been in a relationship.

I haven't been through
any struggles like that.

But I connect
with Linda Ronstadt

because she started young,

and I started singing
when I was 9 and a half.

So being a girl, you know,
and being thrown

into the whole music thing,
it's incredibly hard,

but it's also like
a dream come true.

* And I think
I'm gonna love you *

I'm definitely gonna
work on the emotion

and connecting to the song

so by the time
the playoffs come,

I will have it down
and I'm ready to play.

Very pretty. Very pretty.
Thank you.

I mean, I'm trying to find
something to help you with.

[ Laughs ]

Connie Smith is
a wonderful country singer.

I ask her how she kept
so much breath

at the end of her line.

She doesn't blow all the air
through her vocals

at the beginning of a line.

Because you sing
so powerfully,

that might help sustain you
on the end of a line.

Okay.

* And I think
I'm gonna love you *

* For a long *

* Long...time *

That way,
you've got breath

instead of trying
to hold it all out,

and it's more emotional
if you chop it up.

I can do that.

But, boy, when you hit
that full loud...

whew, that's so good!

* Of a love
that I never... *

Reba:
I wish that Ruby did remind me
of myself at 16 years old.

Here's Ruby. Way over yonder
against that wall is me.

I was rodeo'ing,
playing basketball

instead of focusing
on my singing.

And she knows her path.

* And I think
I'm gonna miss you *

She's been a sponge.

You give her a note,
she does it.

She leans in
to listen to advice.

What 16-year-old does that?!

I think maybe she lied.

Maybe she's 45 or something.

She's great.

Come on, Ruby!

Oh, my God. I think
I'm having a heart attack.

Singing "Long Long Time,"
here's Ruby Leigh.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* Love will abide *

Oh, my Lord.

* Take things in stride *

**

* Sounds like good advice *

* But there's no one
at my side *

* 'Cause I've *

* Done everything I know *

* To try and make you mine *

**

* And I think
I'm gonna love you *

* For a long *

* Long time *

**

* Life's full of flaws *

* Who knows the cause? *

* Living in the memory *

* Of a love that never was *

* 'Cause I've *

* Done everything I know *

* To try and change your mind *

* And I think
I'm gonna miss you *

* For a long *

* Long time *

* 'Cause I've done
everything I know *

* To try
and make you m-i-i-i-ine *

* And I think
I'm gonna love you *

* For a long *

* Long t-i-i-i-i-ime *

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

Thank you.

Team Reba.
Ruby Leigh, everybody.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Gwen,
we'll start with you.

I think that if there
was just a young girl

that's 16 years old
that could sing like you,

that could make a record
like that,

the world would be saved.

Wow! I'm so blown away by you.

Thank you.
Daly: John?

It's quite stunning
that, at your age,

you can sound like
you've been through so much.

And I know you haven't
been through that much.

[ Laughter ]

And the power of your voice
is really stunning.

Thank you.

Niall.

That's the best version
of that song I've ever heard.

That was so beautiful.
Thank you.

Honestly, like, I'm --
I'm really, really emotional

because you know how much
of a fan we all are.

And I can see your dad
down there in the front row.

Look at him. Look.

[ Cheers and applause ]

I want to say thanks to you
for raising her on great music,

because this girl
is one of one.

And I'm so excited
to see you in the lives.

And if you don't
go to the lives,

Reba's getting fired.

[ Laughter ]

They're gonna take her crown
and her scepter.

Yeah.
She's gonna
be dethroned.

What?!

Next season, I'll be sat here
with the crown and the scepter.

[ Laughter ]

Coach Reba,
what do you have to say?

Ruby, way to go.
I'm so proud of you.

I would watch Mama
when I would be on stage,

and she would just be
drawed up in a knot,

you know, just watching me.

And nobody wanted
to sit by Mama

'cause she was squeezing
their hand so tight.

I know how she feels now.
You just got it all together.

I'm just so proud of you.

And your performance today
was stellar.

Daly: Job well done.

Give it up for Ruby Leigh,
ladies and gentlemen.

Yeah!
Way to go, girl.

Ruby!
Oh, my God!

Ahh...

Ruby.
That girl can sing anything.

16 years old. She's an old soul.

But what a great entertainer
and great singer.

I'm a wreck.

Putting her up against
the rest of the team,

they're all so different.

Please welcome back
Team Reba!

[ Cheers and applause ]

They're all so good
in their own lane.

Ooh, it's gonna be tough.

I'll be glad when this is over
with so I can take a breath.

Only three can represent Reba
in our top-12 live show.

Reba, before
you make a decision,

just what's going on
in your mind right now?

How are you feeling?

Terrible. Happy.

Grateful that I've gotten
to meet you all,

listen to you,
coach you in any way

that I hopefully have
helped you some way.

Yeah.
You certainly helped me.

This is my first team
on "The Voice."

Y'all are wonderful.

Yes.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Thank you.

Alright, Reba, who is
the first artist moving on?

Um...

**

The first artist
moving on in Team Reba...

**

...is Jordan.

Daly: Jordan! You're advancing
to the top 12!

Jordan deserves to be
on the live show.

From the very first moment

she stepped on this stage
singing "Fancy," I knew.

Love ya.
Feeling good, man.

America is gonna fall in love
with Jordan as we all have.

Daly:
Okay, Reba. One down.

Who is your second artist
moving on?

The second artist
moving on...

**

...is Jacquie.

Jacquie also moving on
to the lives top-12 shows!

Jacquie came on tonight.

What excites me about Jacquie
on the live shows

is she's a show dog.

Yes!

[ Laughter ]

Yes, Jacquie!
You killed it!

And she's gonna be
a contender.

Daly:
And the moment of truth.

Three incredible artists here
left on your team, Reba.

It's incredible.

Unfortunately, only one
can join you in the top 12.

The others
leaving us tonight.

Who is your last artist
moving on?

**

My third artist moving on...

**

...is Ruby.

Daly: Ruby Leigh,
the 16-year-old,

makes it to the top 12!
Congratulations!

There's nobody like Ruby
in the competition.

She's got that real sweet,
emotional cry in her voice

that -- it rips my heart.

**

Yes!

She's bringing something
that I've never seen

on "The Voice" before.

I mean, to have three women

going to lives
on Reba's team.
That's right.

That's freaking awesome.

I've got my first
live-show team.

They're all three country,
but they're all three different.

You could put those three,
package them on a concert tour.

They'd each blow
the audience away.

We're gonna go kick some butt
and win this sucker.

Whoo!
That's right.
Team Reba, y'all!

We're gonna win.
We're winning.

Playoffs, baby.

Now I can sit back and relax.
Thank you, Lord.

And now I'm gonna watch
Gwen choose her team.

Praying for her, too.

Alright, Gwennie.
Yeah.

You're up.
Oh, no!

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly:
Welcome back to "The Voice."

Woman: You doknow
how to tie your shoe!

A callback.

I couldn't even
tie my shoelaces at 13.

And I still haven't learned.

That's a you problem,
Niall.

Look at me now.

Woman: We're so proud
of you, Niall!

Thank you.

* He's a big boy now *

[ Laughter ]

Gwen: Welcome to my team!
Stee: Gwen!

Gosh. You're, like, one
of the greatest singers
of this entire show.

Oh. Thank you so much.

It's the truth!

Stee is my steal
from John Legend.

Daly: Wow! Immediately!
A steal from Gwen Stefani!

Gwen: I've been eyeing him
since the blinds.

He is one of the best singers
on this season,

so he brings a lot to my team.

You know what I was, like,
trying to think about this song?

Because at first,
I was kind of like...

Why this song?
Yeah.

So, I'm in a band,

and we do this song
all the time.
Yeah.

When people hear that...
[Imitates song intro]

It's like
they lose their minds!

And, for me, it's always been
my dream to have a song

that moves people
in that way.
Yeah. Yeah.

I'm doing "Shut Up and Dance"
by Walk the Moon.

* Shut up
and dance with me *

This is a song
that I do with my band,

but a lot of the gigs that we do
are black-tie events,

your weddings, your banquets.

You know, you want to
keep it very corporate

and very professional.

And as an artist,
I want to be Stee

and be more free and
more relaxed in my expression.

* Ooh-ooh-ohh *

* Shut up
and dance with m-e-e-e-e *

Yeah!
Yes!

That felt great!

[ Laughs ]
Oh, my God.

The way you perform is
quite, like, professional.

I would be curious to see
if you added in

a little bit more,
like, edge

so it's a little less
theatrical.

Yes.
You can take it two ways.

Like --
* Shut Up and dance *

Or you can be like --
"Shut up and dance with me *

Boom, boom, boom.
Hey!

You get a little bit
more like...

I love it.
Just a little more,
like, edge to it.

Got you.

Gwen is extremely insightful.

If you can bring that other
side that no one's seen yet,

it's gonna make
all the difference.

I'm gonna focus on the notes
that Gwen gave me

and just deliver on that.

Thank you so much.
Thank you.

Gwen: This song
is a smart choice,

but it's more about
the stage presence

and making it believable.

See you later, Stee.
Have a good one!

But he's very skilled
and he can do anything.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Good luck, Gwen.
Thank you.

Pulling for ya.

Let's go, Stee!
Let's go!

With "Shut Up and Dance,"
here's Stee.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* Oh, don't you dare look back,
just keep your eyes on me *

* I said you're holding back *

* She said,
"Shut up and dance with me" *

* This woman is my destiny *

* She said, ooh, ooh-hoo *

* "Shut up and dance with me" *

**

* We were victims of the night *

* The chemical, physical
kryptonite *

* Helpless to the bass
and the fading light *

* Oh, we were bound
to get together *

* Bound to get together *

* She took my arm *

* I don't know how it happened *

* We took the floor,
and she said *

* "Oh, don't you dare
look back *

* Just keep your eyes on me" *

* I said,
"You're holding back" *

* She said,
"Shut up and dance with me" *

* This woman is my destiny *

* She said, ooh, ooh-hoo *

* "Shut up and dance with me" *

* Deep in her eyes *

* I think I see the future *

* I realize *

* This is my last chance *

* She took my arm *

* I don't know how it happened *

* We took the floor,
and she said *

* Yeah *

Alright, everybody!

* "Oh, don't you dare
look back *

* Just keep your eyes on me" *

* I said,
"You're holding back" *

* She said,
"Shut up and dance with me" *

This woman is my destiny

* She said, ooh, ooh-hoo *

* "Shut up and dance *

* Don't you d-a-a-a-are *

* Yeah *

* "Shut up and dance with me" *

* This woman is my destiny *

* She said, ooh, ooh-hoo *

* "Shut up and dance with me" *

* Me, me *

* Ooh, ooh-hoo *

* "Shut up and dance with me" *

**

[ Cheers and applause ]

Daly: That is Stee!

Alright!

[ Laughs ]
Carson!

Good job! Whoo!

Nice work, man.
Thank you.

Great energy here
in the playoffs.

Your remember your former coach,
the great John Legend.

I do. Hey, John.
Hi, Stee!

You know I love you, Stee.
I love you, too, John.

You're such a pro, man.

You've done such a diverse
spectrum of songs.

What you've shown is that
you can really do anything,

and you come up on the stage
with such a level

of polish
and professionalism.

You just do everything
so well, so effectively.

I love watching you, Stee.

Thank you, John!

Ditto, ditto, ditto.

I loved everything
about your performance.

When you get on stage,
you make everybody feel good.

I told all of my artists,

"I just want to feel something
when you're performing."

Thank you.
You gave it to us.

Way to go! Way to go!

Niall: Stee, you know,
since day one,

we've all been massive fans
of you, your energy.

You had everybody up on their
feet getting along with it.

Stee: Thank y'all!

Like, there's nobody
on this show

that's happier
to be here than you.

I know you're having
a great time.
You know it!

[ Laughter ]

You're a favorite
of all of ours.

And we're glad you're here
still, man. You're great.

Daly: Alright, Stee,
we've heard from those coaches,

but there's only one opinion
that matters,

and that's Gwen Stefani.
Hi, Gwen.

No pressure.

I can't believe I got you.
I stole you from John Legend.

I mean, I was -- It was like
I was in shock when it happened.

This song, it's harder to do
than a ballad.

It's harder to do than, like,
even, like, a rock song.

I thought you did a great job.

We worked on trying
to maybe unpolish you

a little bit to make you
just a little bit more, "Oh!"

That other side of you,
the little more edgier side.

And I saw that
in that performance tonight.

I've really loved
working with you and...

Thank you.
Thank you, Gwen.

You did a great job
tonight.

Thank you.

Give it up for Stee!

Yeah!
Stee!

Gwen:
I think Stee did great.

What I love about Stee's voice
is he has, like, a lot of range.

He can get the room pumped.

Stee: Thank you guys
so much.
Yes, sir!

Gwen: That might be something
I need in the live show,

so I might need him there.

Stee!

I enjoyed it
for his performance.

John: He's great.

Because like you said,
everything's really slick.

This wasn't,
and I loved it.

Going into the lives,
I'd really love

to have somebody
that's just unique

and has a real sense
of who they are as an artist,

and I think I have that
on Team Gwen.

It's just now -- who's gonna
show up at the playoffs

and who's gonna blow me away?

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly:
Welcome back to the playoffs.

John: Oh, man. Gwen's got
some tough decisions.

And I know I've got to
do this tomorrow, so...

I don't know, man.
This is stressful.

Gwen: BIAS!

BIAS: What's up?

You look cute
in your little cowboy hat.

I'm your last country artist.
What are you gonna do?

I know

I think that BIAS --
he's a really good singer

'cause he is kind of soulful
on top of his stage presence

and that "it" factor
that he has.

You just want to keep
knowing more about him

because he's just unique.

This is my last chance
to get to, like, choose,

and then it goes
to America.
I know.

There's just
something about you.

Like, just the way
you're able to be so honest

and so you, it's rare.
Thank you.

* That night
I hit rock bottom *

BIAS: For the playoffs,
I'm gonna be singing

"Where I Find God"
by Larry Fleet.

* He paid my tab
and put me in a cab *

This song is perfect for me

because I get a chance
to show who I am.

* And he could see... *

I'm always one that's
bouncing around on stage,

but this one, I'm reserved.

I just want this to be a moment,

and I just want to
resonate with people.

* 'Cause I didn't feel
worth savin', no *

I think you're gonna see
the really redneck

side of BIAS this time around.

* Sunday mornin'
in a church pew *

My home is
Chattanooga, Tennessee.

There's about a couple cows
and a lot of grass.

Mile two.

So country music
is a huge influence on my life.

But I'm a little bit of soul.
I'm a little bit of funk.

I'm a little bit
of all that stuff

just combined into one.

* I do that a lot *

Oh, my God.
You're making me get chills.

Maybe you should go back
to being a worship leader.

One thing is, you had
your eyes shut a lot.

I didn't really mind it.

It is sort of a prayer
and a confession.

So just finding those
perfect moments in the song

to deliver those moments.
Right.

Gwen had some great notes.

I want to take in
everything she says

so that I make her proud
on playoff day.

It's just such a simple kind
of story, but so relatable,

and I think you can
deliver it really well.

Okay.
And then at the end,

just getting a little bit
more emotional

with the soulful part
of your voice.

I think that's gonna be
a win right there.
Sweet.

BIAS is my only
country person on my team,

and that's really
important to me.

I'm so proud of myself that
I pressed my button for you.

I'mproud of you.

I'm hoping that what he'll show
in this next performance

is that he can really
connect to a lyric.

I think if he does that,
he has a really good chance

of going through to the lives.

BIAS! Yee-haw!

He looks good.

He looks like
a bullfighter.

Gwen: I know!

Singing "Where I Find God,"
here is BIAS.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* Ooh *

* Ooh, ooh *

* The night I hit rock bottom *

* Sittin' on an old barstool *

* He paid my tab
and put me in a cab *

* When he didn't have to *

* And he could see
I was hurtin' *

* Hm, oh, I wish
I'd got his name *

**

* 'Cause I didn't feel
worth savin' *

* Nah *

* But he saved me
just the same *

Whoo!

* From a bar stool
to that Evinrude *

* Sunday mornin'
in a church pew *

* In a deer stand
on a hay field *

* An interstate
back to Nashville *

* A Chevrolet
with the windows down *

* Me and him
just ridin' around *

* Sometimes *

**

* Whether I'm lookin' for Him
or not *

* That's where
I f-i-i-i-ind God *

Yeah!

* From a bar stool
to that Evinrude *

* Sunday mornin'
in a church pew *

* In a deer stand
on a hay field *

* An interstate
back to Nashville *

* Well, I do that a lot *

* I do th-a-a-a-a-at *

* A lot *
Ohh!

* That's where I find God *

Whoo!

* That's where
I find God *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Gwen: Yeah!

Yes, BIAS!

Daly: Team Gwen artists
giving it their all.

That's BIAS,
ladies and gentlemen.

Yes, BIAS!

There's just something there.
I don't know what is.

Queen Reba,
what'd you think?

I'm an Okie girl,
live in Tennessee.

You're from Tennessee.
Yes, ma'am.

Everybody in Tennessee,
in that region there,

is gonna be in their living
rooms on their chairs

going, "Yee-haw! Alright!"

Great performance.

Thank you, Reba.
Niall?

Niall: Oh, BIAS.

It just keeps getting better
and better every single time.

Thank you.
It was really nice to see

the more toned-back side
of you this time.

That run you did towards the end
was beautiful,

and your tone is so pure
and clear and unique to you.

If it was me, Gwennie,
I would put BIAS through.

I mean, he's so good.
Amen.

Does anybody else
call you Gwennie?

A lot of my family,

so it's interesting
that Mr. Irish over here...

I amin the family.

You're her stepson.

Oh, yeah. My stepson.

Your stepson. [ Laughs ]
That's funny. John?

This was my favorite
performance of yours.

I agree with that, too.

Took us to church.

You had me saying
amen and hallelujah

and waving my hands
in the air.

[ Laughs ]

You were communicating
with your audience.

You had the exact right song
and the exact right delivery.

It was exactly
what you needed to do.

Very well done, BIAS.

Daly: Well,
there you go, BIAS.

If John Legend was your coach,
you'd be through, no problem.

Unfortunately,
it's all about right there.

Our friend, your coach.
Gwennie, what'd you think?

Oh. "Gwennie."

I hope
it catches on now.

It's -- I love it.

I just saw something in you

from the very beginning
of the blinds.

Your originality is so pure,

and the way you did it tonight
was absolutely perfect.

I just feel so honored and proud
of you and excited for you.

And your mustache
is so cute!

Hey!
And -- Yes!

I like your outfit, too.
I like the --

It's like a country
bullfighter situation.

I love it.

Give it up for BIAS,
ladies and gentlemen.

John: BIAS is so cool.

He sings with this
really cool soulfulness,

and he has this individuality.

This was his best performance,
and it was in a moment

that really counted
when he had to convince Gwen

to pick him
for the live shows.

BIAS: We've got a bunch
of great people on this team,

and, you know, I don't know
how it's gonna go down.

Let's see what happens.

That was the best so far.
That gave me chills.

It really moved me.
Me too.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

* Here's your one chance, Fancy,
don't let me down *

Woman: Reba,
are you gonna sing?!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Couple of songs! Just a couple
of verses! Anything!

* Here's your one chance,
Fancy, don't let me down *

See? That's what
they came to see!

[ Laughs ]

[ Cheers and applause ]

That's it.

[ Laughter ]

Gwen:
Rudi. I love her.

I love everything about her.

I think that her voice
is beautiful.

She has so much swag.

But she did a song that was
challenging in the knockouts.

The winner of this knockout
is gonna be Tanner.

Daly: Tanner,
congratulations!

During knockout rounds,
I didn't win.

Thank you so much, Gwen.
This has been an honor.

I thought I was done.
I was, like, walking out.

I gave the kisses.
And then you just hear...

Daly: Whoa!

I was like,
"Did I just hear three booms?"

We have two steals
and a save!

Oh, my God. Oh, my God! No!

That was crazy.
Crazy, crazy.

And I wound up
staying with Gwen.

I did not mean
to scare you like that.

I think that there's more to her
than just that moment,

and I wanted to save her and see
what else she could give me.

You knew that I was
gonna pick you.

It was risky, but you were
really, really good.

How are you feeling,
like, outside of everything?

Like, I mean, it's insane,
right, the whole process?

Yeah. It's so much,
honestly.

I wasn't gonna
bring this up,

but I'm already
getting emotional.

Um, my aunt passed away.

What?!

Like a couple days --
On Friday.

Oh, my God. I'm so sorry.
So it's been hard.

My Aunt Mary, she's been
struggling with cancer.

She's been in the hospital
the last few months.

And finally she got to a point
to where she was like,

"I can't. No more."

I do wish I had another
moment to be with her.

I'm doing this for her.

* 'Cause I've drowned in you,
and I won't pull through *

* Without you
by my side *

Gwen: Rudi's singing "My All"
by Mariah Carey.

The song is a really
perfect song for her.

It's emotional.

She's singing it
in English and Spanish,

so that's connecting her roots

and showing
a different side of her.

* Dime si me sientes *

I'm Hispanic. I come
from a Latin background.

And my aunt,
she always pushed me

to sing Spanish music.

* Ya no esta,
mi estrella fugaz *

So she'd be so proud.

Her last text to me,
she just said,

"Conquer your dreams,"
and, "You're already our star."

So I know --

[ Sniffles ]

I know she's proud.

Me knowing you
is you're fun,

and you're not going through a
fun period in your life, right?

So that serious side of you
wearing your heart, like,

just so everyone can feel
that emotion, you know?

I think when you go into
Spanish, I do feel it.
I got chills.

Just don't let it be
only about the vocal.
Yeah.

Let it be the lyric
and your heart.

I'm thankful
for Gwen Stefani.

I know she wants me to just
go and connect with this song

as much as possible,
sing the crap out of it.

So I just need to
get my mind together,

get my heart together,
and do what I know I can do.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Hello! Oh, my God.
You're pretty.

Oh, she looks great.

[ Cheers and applause ]

With "My All/Mi Todo,"
here's Rudi.

[ Cheers and applause ]

* I am thinking of you *

* In my sleepless solitude
tonight *

* If it's wrong to love you *

* Then my heart
just won't let me be right *

* 'Cause I've drowned in you *

* And I won't pull through
without you by my side *

* I'd give my all *

* To have *

* Just one more night with you *

* I'd risk my life *

* To feel *

* Your body next to mine *

* 'Cause I can't go on *

* Living in the memory
of our song *

* I'd give my all *

* For your love *

* Tonight *

* Dime si me sientes *

Ohh!

* Imaginando verme
frente a ti *

* Que aunque ya no estas *

* Mi estrella fugaz *

* Te deseo alcanzar *

* I'd give my all *

* To have *

* Just one more night with you *

* I'd risk my life *

* To feel *

* Your body next to mine *

* 'Cause I can't go on *

* Living in the memory
of our song *

* I'd give my all *

* For your love *

* Ton-i-i-i-ight *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Daly: That's a playoff
performance right there.

That's Rudi,
ladies and gentlemen.

Whoo!

Wow.
Incredible.

Niall,
what'd you think?

That was really,
really special.

You did such
a beautiful job on it.

In your case, the longer
the song goes on,

the better you get, and
just there towards the end,

it's like you've done
the hard graft at the start,

and you were just like,
"Alright, let me take off now

and show you what I can do."

Every time you come out here,
you always smash it.

Thank you.
And I thought it was a really
special performance today.

Thank you so much.
It was really good.

Daly: John?

What a challenging song.

Niall: Yeah.

Every time, she chooses
a challenging one.

I was like, "Wow.
This is hard."

And I think maybe with
the breathing at the beginning,

it might be a matter of slowing
the tempo down a little bit.

You just felt like you
were trying to catch up
with it all the time.

Yeah.

Taking on Mariah Carey,
like, it's difficult.

Yeah.
And you're such
a gifted singer.

I love that you keep
challenging yourself like that.

Thank you.
Daly: Coach Reba?

[ Cheers and applause ]

[ Laughter ]

When you started out,
that was so sexy, so sensuous.

Ooh! Ooh!

Your low end,
it was just incredible.

Oh, thank you.
You set the mood.

Your voice was so good,
and it told the story.

I loved it.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Gwen, what'd you think?

I could imagine you
on a record.

Your style of singing,
because it's so intricate --

Like, you do so many
little things with your voice.

And your gift
to be able

to interpret lyrics
and your emotion.

Your presence on stage.
Your beauty.

I just think
that you're so great.

Thank you.
And I thought you did
a beautiful job tonight.

You could do any song.
You could.

Thank you, Gwen.
Thank you.

How about another big hand
for Rudi, everybody?!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Gwen:
I really love Rudi.

She has, like,
a lot of tenderness

and details to her voice.

I think she could be really
great for my live-show team,

but I don't know
what I'm gonna do

because she's up against people
like Stee and BIAS.

She's a great singer.

Gwen: Yeah.
I loved it.

I love her voice.

How am I gonna choose?

Like, how am I gonna
make this big decision?

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

Can't believe I actually
made it to the playoffs.

I mean, I still live here
with my roommates.

I mean my parents.

[ Chuckles ]
I'm sure they want me gone.

Titan, you're finally gonna
get your own room!

[ Laughter ]

* If only I'd have known
you had a storm to weather *

It just sounded
really beautiful and pretty.

You're like a diamond
in the rough.

Tanner is 19, and he has

kind of everything that you
would want in a new artist.

He is able to take a lyric

and make you believe
that it's his story.

Now here we are,
playoffs, where it's brutal.

Mm-hmm.
Three people are going home.

I only get to keep three.

Is your mom out here with you?

My parents could not come with,
which is really weird

'cause I had to, like,
come out here by myself.

Have you ever done
anything like that,

gone anywhere like --
Not by myself.

Usually my parents
are with me, so...
Yeah.

My parents supporting me
this entire time

means so much more
than they know.

I don't tell them enough,

but I really appreciate
every single time they call,

every single time
that they're worried about me.

I just want to see my mom
and dad proud of me.

To make it to the live shows
would be incredible.

* I remember years ago *

* Someone told me
I should take... *

Tanner is singing "Impossible"
by Shontelle.

The song actually
fits Tanner perfectly.

He has a little bit
of an alternative edge,

but he also feels quite pop.

* Write it on the skylines *

Gwen:
I got to be honest.

I think that Tanner,
out of everybody on my team,

has a really good chance of
making it outside of the show.

Each time he performs, he's
seeing his gift even clearer.

I think he just needs to now,

like, get in the studio
and write songs.

* Impossible *

Yay!

You're so good.

You have
such good instincts.

The only thing I can think of

to maybe work with
on your vocals

is sometimes it feels like
it's getting a little pinched.

There was a couple parts
where I think

you could not crunch down
so hard on your voice.

You know what I mean?
Just --
Right.

Just a little bit more open.
The tension for sure.

Yeah.
As far as, like, lyrically,

I think it's just be real.

When you just listen
to what the song is,

it will lead you to the truth
of what that lyric is.

You know what I mean?
Yeah.

And that's what I think people
are gonna love about you,

is that I see that come through
in the way that you sing.

And that's all you want.

Awesome.
Right?

I think that Tanner
has grown a lot on the show.

Thank you so much.
Thank you.

In order to make it
to the lives,

I think he really just
has to make me forget

that he's 19 years old

and he needs to sing this song
like it's his story.

I'm gonna make you proud.
I swear.

I'm already proud.

I'm already so lucky.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Come on, Tanner.

I love Tanner.
So good.

Singing "Impossible,"
here's Tanner Massey.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* I remember years ago *

* Someone told me I should take
caution when it comes to love *

* I did *

* I did, and you were strong
and I was not *

* My illusion, my mistake *

* I was careless, I forgot *

* I did *

* And now when all is gone
there is nothing to say *

* You have won
and so effortlessly *

* You have won,
you can go ahead, tell them *

* Tell them all I know now *

* Shout it from the rooftops *

* Write it on the skyline *

* All we had is gone now *

* Tell them I was happy *

* And my heart is broken *

* All my scars are open *

* Tell them all I hoped
would be impossible *

* Impossible *

* Impossible *

* Impossible *

* I remember years ago *

* Someone told me I should take
caution when it comes to love *

* I did *

* Tell them all I know now *

* Shout it from the rooftops *

* Write it on the skyline *

* All we had is gone now *

* Impossible *

* Impossible *

* Impossible *
* Ohh, ohh *

Okay.

* Impossible *

* Impossible *

* Impossible *

* Ohh, ohh *

* Impossible *

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

Daly: That is Tanner Massey
giving it all he's got

in the playoffs for Team Gwen.

Tanner, we all love you.

I feel like the beginning,
I wasn't sure

if you were hearing
the key exactly.

Yeah.
Ohh.

But then once everything

kind of came together,
it felt so good.

And you hit a note
so unexpected,

we all just looked
at each other like, "Ooh!"

Yeah.
[ Laughter ]

And what I absolutely loved

is just how much passion
you were showing.

And I think our audience is
gonna connect with that, too.

Thank you.
Thank you, Coach.
Reba.

Oh, I agree 100%.
You did have a lot of passion.

And have I told you today
that you're cute as a button?

[ Laughter ]

You know,
I think you did.

Well, you know, I say that
every time I see you,

so I just wanted to know.

I loved your performance.

I think your voice
is really, really good.

Thank you so much.

You got a great chance
of going to the top.

I appreciate that.
Niall.

My man, Tanner.
Every time, dude.

I'm just really happy

how this competition
has progressed for you,

even though,
like, I had to lose you.

And you remind me of me
when I was younger,

like, just the will to learn.

That was a really
passionate performance.

I've spoken way too much.
I'm just a big fan.

[ Laughter ]

I'm a big fan, too.

Have we told you
you're cute as a button?

Have we told you?

And as Reba would say,
I was tickled to pieces.

[ Laughter ]

Alright, Gwen,
give us some thoughts

on Tanner's performance.

Well, I wanted to work
with you so bad

because I actually really enjoy

working with the younger people
like you because --

especially a boy.
I have three boys of my own.

And you're 19 years old.

I mean, it's crazy.
Thank you.

I'm sad about the beginning,
but I understand.

It happens to me all the time.

I actually have cues in my ears
on stage for certain songs.

Yes.
Literally on stage it's like,

"Turn left. Smile."
[ Laughter ]

It's true.

We get all these
little things in our ears.

Say "Hollaback Girl."
Okay.

[ Laughter ]

It's true. We do it.

You've grown a lot
just before my eyes

in a short amount of time.

And I'm just super proud,
super proud of you.

Thank you so much.

Daly: Give it up
for Tanner Massey one more time.

Thank you, everyone.

Tanner's performance
was amazing.

I'm so proud of him.
He's the real deal.

Really regret letting Tanner go.

I have a feeling it's gonna
come back to bite me

if he gets through to the lives.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly:
Welcome back to "The Voice."

[ Cheers and applause ]

Alright, Gwen tell us about
your Super Save

and why you saved this artist.

Well, my Super Save
was for an artist

that I feel
is just so unique.

I needed to bring him back
to Team Gwen.

Who is he?
Who is it, you guys?

Who could it be?

They basically said
that we could choose,

like, anybody out of any team --
right? -- to bring back.

And I was like, "Hmm.

I'm gonna call Lennon and see
if he wants to come back."

Would you like that?
Wow, like...

Thank you so much.
I'm ready.

Let's do it.
Alright. Let's do it.

* Just like those old stars *

Gwen:
Lennon is a singer-songwriter

that has this very unique tone.

* I see that you have
come so far *

Niall: These two crying
says it all.

And there's no steals
or saves left.

Gwen:
Lennon was one of our favorites.

As coaches
we loved his singing,

his unique style of voice.

If there was gonna be anyone
that I brought back,

I want to bring back,
like, a real artist

that has a point of view,
that knows who they are.

You know,
I always wanted Lennon,

and now he's on my team.

* I don't know you *

* But I... *

I'm singing "Falling Slowly"

by Glen Hansard
and Markéta Irglová.

This song really represents
what my journey

has been on this show.

As somebody that's the underdog

and all the emotion
that comes from that,

there just couldn't have been
a more perfect song.

* Ahh, ahh, ahh *

I love it.

It's feeling good.
Yeah.

One thing was just,
when you get to,

"Well, you have suffered enough

and you warred with yourself,
it's time that you won,"

make sure that we can hear
the lyric.
Yeah.

'Cause, like, right now
you're kind of...

It's getting lost.
...falling off a little bit.

It's just
such a great lyric.

Yeah.
If you don't get it,

then you're not gonna get
the story as much.

Definitely got to make sure
that I get that, yep.
Yeah.

I'm super excited.

I think it sounds amazing.

It feels like now
my team is, like,

all over the map 'cause
I don't have anybody like you.

Thank you for letting me
be here -- again.

Yay!
If I haven't said that enough.

Like, this is so fun.
[ Chuckles ] No.

Lennon:
Gwen could have picked anyone,

and she chose me to come back.

So I feel a lot of pressure
in this performance.

Because so many good people
didn't get this chance,

I'm just gonna give it
everything I have

and show that I deserve
to be there.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Yeah!

With "Falling Slowly,"
here's Lennon VanderDoes.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* I don't know you *

* But I want you *

* All the more for that *

**

* And words fall through me *

* Always fool me *

* And I can't react *

**

* And you have suffered enough *

* And warred with yourself *

* It's time that you won *

**

* Take this sinking boat *

* And point it home *

* We've still got time *

* Raise your hopeful voice *

* You have a choice *

* You've made it now *

* Falling slowly *

* Sing your melody *

* I'll sing it loud *

* Loud *

* Lou-u-u-u-u-d *

* Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh *

[ Cheers and applause ]

* Falling slowly *

* Eyes that know me *

* And I can't go back *

[ Cheers and applause ]
John: Yeah, Lennon!

Yeah, Lennon!

Whoo!
Gwen: Whoo!

That was beautiful.

Let's start with --
How about your former coach?

Hi, Niall.
Hello, Lennon.

Hey, man.
Oh, my God.

That song was made for you.
That was beautiful.

I am so glad
that Gwen chose you

because what you did
in that knockout performance --

I mean,
you made John Legend cry.

He did. He did.

And he sobbed.
I sobbed.

Um, it was --

It was ugly.

But it was such a special moment

that I'm glad that you got
the chance to come back

and put in another stellar
performance on your part.

You're just a proper artist,
and that's what I'm here for.

Thank you, man.
Means the world.

Means the world.
Thank you.

John, what'd you think
about tonight?

It was truly beautiful.

You've just been, honestly,
very consistent.

We can tell
who you want to be,

and you're coming out here
and executing it on stage

really beautifully
every single time.

And you did it again.

Thank you, John.
Reba.

There's nobody like you
on this competition.

And when I listen
to the radio,

I like to be able to identify
the singer immediately.

It's a little game
I play with myself.

And when you start
recording your records,

when you have
your own music out,

I know that I will be able
to say,

"I know who that is."

Wow. Thank you.

Alright, Coach,
this all comes down to you.

I mean, I Super Saved you.

You didn't let me down.

The whole performance
was beautiful.

I really liked getting
to know you in rehearsals

and watching you work
your way through this song.

Yeah.
You did just, again,

an amazing, beautiful,
artistic performance.

Really beautiful.
Thank you so much, Gwen.

Thank you
for bringing me back.
Yes.

Lennon --
he's coming in and doing

a perfect song for his voice

and doing
a perfect version of it.

How do I compare
a singer-songwriter on my team

to all these other genres?

It is nearly impossible to do.

Great job!
Thank you.

I got one more performance
to see,

and my stomach is in knots.

I am agonizing.
I don't know what I'm gonna do.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly:
Welcome back to the playoffs.

* Bah bah bah bah bah bah bah *

That's my jam.

I love SWV.

* Bah bah bah bah
bah bah bah *

* Bah dah dah *
* Bah dah dah *

[ Cheers and applause ]
Taking me back.

**

Gwen: Kara --
she's one of those artists

that, once she gets on stage
with the lights,

the outfit, the audience,

the real Kara comes out.

During the knockouts,
you seized the moment.

Just, like, add the lights
and the cameras,

and you turn into
another version of yourself.

I love to perform.
Yeah.

It's just --
I'm so passionate about it.

How are you feeling
about this song?

This is one of my
favorite songs ever

by one of my favorite groups
of all time.

* Rain on me *

I am singing "Rain" by SWV.

* Rain down on me *

I just love
everything about them.

They're just three girls
from the neighborhood

that just got together
and did big things.

They just represent all
the young girls from the block,

like, all the round-the-way
girls, you know,

and I grew up
from round the way.

So that's one thing
that I really appreciate.

They have inspired me.

Wow. That sounds so good
on your voice.

Thank you.
But, like, that line,

* Let your love just -- *

It needs to be a little bit
more intentional and rhythmic.

Okay.
* Let your love,
dun, dun, dun, dun *

Yeah.
A little more like, "Mm!"

You know what I mean?
Yeah.

* Let your love just shower *

Before I came here,
I was working as a caregiver

for developmental disabled
and the elderly,

doing gigs on the side,

but still having to work
that 9-to-5.

But to be here, like, sometimes
I have to pinch myself.

Like, I always get
a little nervous

in front of you because --
Me?!

Yes!
You're Gwen Stefani. Like --
Oh, my gosh. No, I'm not!

I'm supposed to be,
like, your safe zone,

like your coach,
like your cheerleader.

Yes, but I just have so much
respect and love for you.

You're so good.

You don't ever need
to be nervous around me.

Thank you so much.

Do you know what
you're wearing yet?

Yeah. It's gonna be fly.
[ Laughs ]

I think
you'll approve of it.

You look so good every time.
Thank you.

I can't even put into words

how thankful I am
for this opportunity.

I'm putting it out there
right now.

You gonna see me in lives.

I think you're doing it.
I'm not worried.

Oh, thank you, Gwen!

Gwen: Kara's definitely grown
every single round,

and she keeps showing me,
like, a little bit more.

This is, like, another
one of those hard decisions

'cause I have
this amazing artist.

I just don't even know
how I'm gonna choose.

With "Rain,"
here's Kara Tenae.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* Hmmm *

* Sometimes it's soft
as a misty rain *

* That gently touches my soul *

Whoa!
Yes, Kara!

* It cools the fire
that burns in me *

And I simply lose control *

* So just rain down on me *

* Let your love just fall
like rain drops *

* Rain on me *

* Just rain down *

Hey!
* On me *

* Let your love just shower me *

* Just rain on me *

* Yeah *

* Fall down, fall down on me *

* Let it fall down, fall on me *

* Down on me *
* Just ra-a-a-a-in *

* Let your love
just fall like rain drops *

* Just rain on me *
* Let your love fall
down just like rain *

* Every little drip drop *

* Just rain down on me *
* Just *

* Let your love just shower me *
* On me *

* Just rain on me *
* Rain on me *

* Sometimes it's soft
as a misty rain *

* Hmmm *

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

Team Gwen
killing it tonight!

Kara Tenae,
ladies and gentlemen!

Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!

Whoo!
Niall.

Oh, Kara, that was my favorite
performance you've done.

It was so good.

You never over-perform.

It's very easy to get into
a song like that

and be, like, throw the hair
around and like --

[ Laughter ]
Yeah.

But you always perform
the song

like it's meant to be performed.

That was really, really good.

Thank you, Niall.

John: Oh, I was feeling
so nostalgic.

I absolutely loved this song,

and it was so good
for your voice.

You sounded magical.

You just look like a star
on stage.

And you control your movements

in a way
that's so savvy and beautiful.

This was my favorite performance
of yours, as well.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Thank you, John.

This has been so fun
working with Kara

because she's really humble
and just eager to learn.

Even vocally,
your voice has gotten warmer.

You have, like,
a little bit of rasp.

I don't think people understand
how hard it is

to be that in control
of your voice

and move on stage
at the same time.

Yes.
And that is pro stuff.

Yes.
Real pro stuff.

Absolutely.

Well said.
Ladies and gentlemen,

give it up for Kara Tenae
one more time.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Kara, thank you so much.

Yes, Kara!

Kara has been consistently
outdoing herself

every single performance.

She's like a phenomenon.

So good.
That was good.

She's so dope.
She killed it.

That was good.

I'm crossing my fingers
that Gwen picks me.

Please, Gwen.
Pick me. Please.

[ Laughs ]

Okay.

Look at her looking at me.

[ Laughs ]
"What are you gonna do?"

I have such an incredible team
and just a diverse team.

Daly: Please welcome back
Team Gwen!

I am definitely
dreading this decision

that I'm gonna have to make.

My stomach is in knots.

I had a sleepless night.

I mean, it's always hard,
every single time.

Congratulations
on a great night.

Gwen, I mean, my goodness,

unfortunately
only three of these artists

can represent you
in our live shows in the Top 12.

I just want to say
that you already won

by doing what you've done.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Let's go, guys.
Let's go, guys.

But I have to choose
three people right now.

Okay, I think
you're stalling now.

And it's really hard.
[ Laughter ]

You're so pushy.

Don't pressure her,
Carson!

It's my job.
[ Laughter ]

Gwen, who is the
first artist moving on?

**

Alright, the first artist
moving on to the live shows...

**

...is Bias.

Bias advancing to the
Top 12 for Team Gwen!

I think that Bias is so
authentic and knows who he is.

Thank you so much.

He's an amazing singer.

I think he's country
and country and country.

Alright, Gwen, who is
the next artist moving on?

**

The next artist...
John: [ Chuckles ]

...[chuckling] moving on --
[ Laughter ]

It's, like, so stressful!

The next artist
going to the live shows...

**

...is Kara.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Yes, Kara!

I picked Kara because she really
knows how to handle the stage.

You're amazing.

She knows what songs suit her.

Yes, Kara!

And she just seems
super ready for that moment.

Ahh.
Well, and it's gonna
get harder here.

We got four
just incredible artists.

One more can move on
to fulfill the Top 12.

The rest, unfortunately,
will leave "The Voice" tonight.

Who is the last artist
moving on, Gwen?

I love you guys so much.

The third person moving on
to the live shows is...

Tanner.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Tanner, also stunned,

moves on
to the live shows!

Tanner has so much range,
and he has so much power.

Being able to help him grow
as an artist is something

that I just thrive off of.
Niall: Yes, Tanner!

I had to put him into the lives
and see what he could do.

Ladies and gentlemen,
how about a big hand...

Ahh.
...for these three

incredible artists
that are leaving us tonight?

I think I have one of
the strongest live show teams.

I have country. I have pop.
I have soul-R&B.

Team Gwen is amazing.

America, get ready.

[ All cheering ]

You know, we've seen
each of our coaches

make some tough decisions.

We've seen their teams
give some great performances.

But you know what they say --

you save the best for last.

Team Legend is tomorrow night.
