Hi, Azán.

Hi.
Do you remember?

You used to be
on Team Legend,

and each coach
has an opportunity

to take one
additional singer

to the playoffs.

And I have
chosen you, Azán.

Let's go!

[ Laughs ]

* Only you *

Hello, beautiful people.

[ Contestants cheer ]

I'm excited for today.
Oh, yeah.

You're gonna be so good.
You're gonna make me proud.

Yes.
Hope so.

The Season 24 playoffs,

it's Team Legend's turn to go.

We are the show tonight.

-Oh, yes.
-Yes!

It's only Team Legend.

So now all
the pressure's on me.

It's gonna be
all fun and games

until I have to make
a decision at the end.

Kristen: With the teams
cutting into half,

the stakes are even higher.

Butterflies are
gonna be happening.

It's gonna be a whole thing.

The most
important thing --

Who steps up
to the plate

and delivers
in this moment.

Because
if you deliver here,

then I know you can deliver
for me in the lives, too.

You can do it.
I know you can.

Yay!
Thank you, John.
Alright?

If I make it to the lives,
I'm gonna be mind blown.

Together: Team Legend!

-Whoo!
-Whoo!

**

John: * Azán *

* Jo-o-o-o-hn *

Azán: Hi!
My super save.

Super!
Super save.

John:
Azán's voice is silky smooth.

She has a really soulful,
neo-soul vibe,

but also, she's my favorite
live performer

out of all my artists.

So I had to bring her back
to Team Legend

with my super save.

Now, let's talk
about your journey

back to Team Legend.

My goodness.
You were stolen by Niall.

You were so incredible
in the knockouts.

Thank you.
I couldn't let
you go home.

Azán:
From blinds to playoffs,

it's just been a whole emotional

roller coaster of a journey.

But I still feel like a winner

because I'm still here.

Thank you.

I'm so beyond grateful for John.

And now I have to prove why

I should represent Team Legend

in the Top 12.

So, here we are,
in the playoffs.

Oh, my goodness.
And we're gonna
sing some Miguel.

I'm ready.

* These lips *

* Can't wait to taste
your skin *

I am singing "Adorn" by Miguel.

The song is about
making somebody feel

even more beautiful than what
they already are by loving them.

I know, with my spouse,
I want them to feel like

they're on top of the world
all the time.

As an artist,
I'm a big lyricist.

I'm all about, like,
falling in love

and passionate, soulful songs.

I just want to showcase that
to the world.

I want people to feel me
when I sing this song.

Best thing about the way
Miguel sings this song

is there's so much
swag on it.

Yeah.
And when you hold
the notes too long,

it sounds too earnest.

Okay.
And I'd rather
it sound...

* And these *

Together: * Lips *

* I can't wait to taste
your skin *

Yeah.
Just come off
the notes quicker.

It'll just sound
cooler and sexier.

The pressure's on.

* Can't wait to taste... *
Being the super save,

I just want to
make him so proud.

I want him to know that

he picked the right one.

Yeeeeah!

That real combination...
Mm-hmm.

...of the confidence
and the romance --

That's the zone
you wanna be in.

Okay, okay.
Okay?

Sounds so good.
Thank you.

Thank you, guys,
aga-a-a-in.

Fantastic.

Thank you, John.
Alright.

[ Cheers and applause ]

This really might be
her best performance.

She sounded really good
in rehearsal.

Oh, yeah,
she's so good.

With "Adorn,"
here's Azán.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* Ooooh *

* Oh-ahh, ah-ohh *

* Ohh, nooo *

* Listen *

* These lips *

* Can't wait
to taste your skin *

* Baby *

* And, baby,
these, these eyes *

* Can't wait
to see your grin *

Yeah.
* Baby *

* Just let my love *

Whoo!
* Just let my love adorn you *

* Please, baby, yeah *

* You gotta know *

* You gotta know *

* You know
that I adore you *

* You gotta know *

* No, no, no, no *

* Knoooooooow *

* Knoooooow *

* Ooooh *

* Oh, baby *

* The same way that the stars
adorn the skies, yeah *

* Oh, look up, sugar *

* Oh, yeah *

* The same way that
my whole world's in your eyes *

* Oooh, and this time now *

* Just le-e-e-t *

Whoo!
* Adorn, baby *

* Le-le-le-let it
dress you down *

* You got to know *

* You got to know *

* That I adore you *

* Love ain't never
looked so good on ya *

* Oh, put it on, baby *

* Let my love *

* Ado-o-o-rn you *

John: Yes! Perfection!
Perfect!

Daly: Azán from Team Legend,
ladies and gentlemen!

Yes, Azán! Perfect!

That was so good.
Coach Reba, talk to us.

Reba: Wow,
what a performance.

Your stage presence
is just so refreshing.

Thank you.
I couldn't take my eyes
off of you.

Thank you.
You're absolutely
gorgeous,

but your voice
is incredible.

Way to go.

Great performance.
Thank you so much.

Thank you, Reba.
Niall, what'd you think?

So good. That was
your best performance by miles.

Oh, my God,
you're gonna make me cry.

I'm so glad that John
had the super save
and you're still here.

The runs,
so tasteful.

Wow. Just whoo!

Oh, my God.
Gwen.

To walk in the way
that you did and sing

that kind of a song
with such ease

and being sexy and swaggy,

it was really,
really beautiful.

Really good.
Thank you so much.

Alright, Azán. Let's see
what your coach thinks.

Oh, my God.
[ Laughter ]

That was
literally perfect.

There is nothing
that I would edit, change,

and I'm always editing
and changing.

For you to completely nail it
A-plus-plus, 100%,

you just made a great statement
for yourself.

You are formidable,
undeniable.

You're a real talent,
and I am so impressed with you.
Thank you.

How about another big hand
for Azán, ladies and gentlemen!

Whoo! I love y'all.
[ Cheers and applause ]

Whoo-hoo!
John: Perfection.

I am so glad I picked Azán
as my super save.

She walks out there
with such stage presence.

It's sexy.
It's silky smooth.

What a moment to have
your best performance

of the competition.

So good.
Niall: I knew it was
going to be good,

but I didn't think it was
going to be thatgood.

Niall: Azán,
formerly of Team Niall,

she was so deserving
of John's super save.

She could really be a threat
in the live shows.

Oh, my God. I just got
nervous for my team.

[ Laughter ]
Right then,
I was like, "Aah!"

Daly: Coming up on the final
night of the playoffs...

[ Kaylee vocalizing ]

* How does it feel? *

Can I have another steal,
please?

Oh, my God.

That is a star standing
next to you, Carson.

John: Oh!
Wow, John, you got
a great team.

A decision that no man
wants to ever make.

[ Laughs ]

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the playoffs.

Now the California
country singer

that John stole from Gwen...

Whoo!
...Kristen Brown.

Oh, I love this song.

Oh, she is going
to nail this one.

Yeah,
it's going to be good.

Gwen is very jealous
of us right now.

Oh, goodness.
[ Laughs ]

I thought I was giving
my grand send-off.

Yes.

[ Audience cheering ]
To be John's only steal,

that blew my mind.

What the heck?

Gwen: Kristen,
she's just so lovable.

She has so much taste.

It was really hard for me

to watch
Kristen go over to John,

but I'm just really happy
that she's still on the show.

John: Kristen's voice
has range and power,

and I know how much
our fans love country.

I made a good choice
stealing Kristen.

You're my only kind of
country singer on the team.

I noticed.

We've got a song
that is a classic.

Lady A, "Need You Now."
I'm so excited.

I sing this one at least
four times a week in shows.

[ Chuckles ]
They hear the "Duh-du-duh,"

and they all go, "Oh!"
They always know it.

[ Intro notes play ]
That.

Kristen: So far
in the competition,

I've done a lot
of the big, belty songs.

And this one really
strips it all down.

It's my first sad song.

I can't wait to show
that side of me.

* It's a quarter
after one *

I'm so grateful
for the opportunity

to still be here
for playoffs.

Back home,
I produce all my own music,

so I write the songs on
my guitar, record my own vocal.

I'll edit that,
send it for mixing.

It's a lot of steps,

but I love being a part
of every single aspect of it.

* Said I wouldn't call *
To be able to make it to lives

would be a statement
to myself of,

I hustled, I kept grinding.

I really want to prove to John
that I do deserve to be here,

and I want to make him proud
for taking on a country girl.

* I just need you *

John: I know Kristen's
a great vocalist,

and she's proving it
in this rehearsal.

This song crossed over
to all the charts,

and I feel like this
is a great song

for Kristen to make a statement
in the playoffs.

Yes!
Whew!

That was really good.
Thank you.

You kind of dipped back
into your false

once you had gotten big.
At that point,

I don't wanna hear you
really singing the false.

At like the very end?
Yeah. Yeah.

Okay, perfect. Cool.
But I think it's
a good, like,

journey throughout the song,
where it feels like

you're building intensity
and keep going.
Thank you.

If you sing it like what
you're doing now in rehearsal,

you're going to be great.
Thank you so much
for everything.

Alright. My pleasure.
Yay!

She's new on my team,
and this is the last time

when the coaches have
the decision-making power.

After this, the audience
is going to decide.

So, she's going to have to do
something really special

to stand out and compete with
all these Team Legend members.

Kristen!
[ Cheers and applause ]

Yes!

With "Need You Now,"
here's Kristen Brown.

I love this song.

**

* Picture perfect memories *

* Shattered all around
the flooooor *

* Reaching for the phone *

* 'Cause I can't
fight it anymore *

Yeah.
* And I wonder *

* If I ever cross your mind *

Oh, pretty.
[ Cheers and applause ]

* For me, it happens
all the time *

* It's a quarter after one *

* I'm all alone,
and I need you now *

* Said I wouldn't call *

* But I've lost all control,
and I need you now *

* And I don't know how
I can do without *

* I just need you nooooow *

What?
Whoo!

* Guess I'd rather hurt *

* Than feel nothing
at a-a-all *

* It's a quarter after one *

* I'm all alone,
and I need you noooow *

* Said I wouldn't call *

* But I'm a little drunk,
and I need you nooooow *

* And I don't know how
I can do without *

* I just need you no-o-o-o-w *

* I just need you noooow *

Yes!

* I just need you now *

[ Cheers and applause ]
Yes!

Yes, Kristen!

Daly: There is Kristen Brown.

Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.

Oh, my gosh!

Niall, what'd you think
of that performance?

That song is absolutely
perfect for you.

Thank you so much.

To hold your breath
and have enough breath control

at that octave
is quite tough.

And you smashed both
of those first opening lines.

Unbelievable job.
Thank you.

Thank you, Coach.
Gwen.

I'm stupid, because...
[ Chuckles ]

...I'm the one
that let her go.

Just the dynamics
in your voice

and just the power
at the end,

everything about
the performance was perfect.

America just completely melted
over you right now.

Kristen: Thank you so much.
Coach Reba.

You made all the country folks
very proud.

Thank you!
Oh!

You represented
country music so well.

I think you need to go
to the top.

Thank you so much.
Absolutely.

That's the queen
right there, Kristen.
I know!

[ Laughter ]

Well, Coach,
what'd you think?

John:
I stole you for a reason.

And this was just
another level.

Having the finesse
and the breath control

to do what you did early in
the song and be just flawless,

we were all looking
at each other like, "Wow."

It was just
perfectly executed.

Thank you so much.

How about a big hand for Kristen
Brown, ladies and gentlemen?
Thank you, guys.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Kristen, the way she sang
the lower notes,

it was with such skill
and finesse, she nailed it.

Both Kristen and Azán have given
their best performance to date.

It's going to be
tough to decide.

Fantastic.

Reba: Kristen's going to be
a heavy contender.

I hope John puts her through.

From what I've seen so far,
Team Legend's incredible.

It's going to be hard
for John to pick three.

I love her.
That was so pretty.
She killed it.

She did little things
with her voice on the high notes

that I know Hillary's
going to go,

"Oh, man,
I wished I'd have done that."

**

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the playoffs

at Universal Studios Hollywood.

Oh, man, Team Legend.

They're making me so proud
and so anxious.

Like, how am I going to decide
between them?

I don't know what to do.

Kaylee: Hey, John!
Kaylee! How are you?

Good. How are you?
Kaylee's young.

She has incredible range,
incredible power.

And I'm excited for her to sing
"You Put a Move on My Heart."

So, this song appeared on

Quincy Jones'
"Jook Joint" album.

Very few singers
can actually pull this off.

Whew!
In this high-stakes moment,

I just felt like it could
help you get to the lives.

Yeah.
Are you ready for it?

[ Laughs ]
I'm super ready.

* You put a move
on my heart *

John: No one can sing
like Kaylee.

She can hit all of these big,
big notes.

She's so special.
* Ooooooooh *

Kaylee: I'm challenging myself
with this song.

There's no more saves.
There's no more steals.

It's just me and my performance.

* I got a real love,
yes, I do-o-o-o *

You're like 17 years old,
and you're like, "I'm young."

Yeah.
[ Laughs ]

"I haven't experienced
a lot of the things

that are in
these songs."
Right.

But there's still a way
for you to find,

like, emotional connection
to it.

When I think of
true, genuine love,

I think about
my sisters.

My sisters mean...

[voice breaking]
...the world to me,

being that I'm the oldest.

Eee!
I did not mean to cry today.

The other day, my sister
texted me out of nowhere,

and she was like, "Kaylee,
I just want to let you know

that I'm so proud of you,
you're doing big things,

and I know you always
dreamed of this,

and I'm always
supporting you."

I was like, "Aww."

I tried not to cry
when I read that.

I was like, "Ooh, dang."

I love them so much.

Kaylee, you're so talented,

and I want to sing
like you.

Get it, girl!

You're the best
big tiny sister.

I'm excited to see you
onstage tonight.

We love you.

* Ooh, you got through
to my heart *

John: Yes.

I really want to be
in the Top 12

super, super badly.

And I know that's going to take
a lot of hard work to get there.

Beautiful. Alright.
So good.
Thank you.

I can't wait for her
to deliver on this song.

It's got emotion.
It's got passion.

It's got power.
So good.

And Kaylee's going to
give it to us.

With "You Put a Move on My
Heart," here's Kaylee Shimizu.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Come on, Kaylee.

**

* Mmmmm *

* Time after time *

* When I'm feeling low *

* Something inside of me *

* Lets me know *

* It's alright *

* Love's on my side *

* When the world
seems a lonely *

* I've got a dream
that won't leave a trace *

* Of the blues *

* I just think of yo-o-o-u *

* Baby, I know *

* I've got a real love *

* Here by my side *

* Someone who needs me *

* Holding me tight *

* But now *

* Now and forever *

* We'll never part *

* 'Cause you're
the world to me *

* You put a move on my heart *

* I got a real love *

* I got a real love *

* Yes, I do *

* Baby, I knew from the start *

* You put a move on me *

* Oh, you got through to my *

* Baby, can't you see,
you and I were meant to be *
* Heart *

* Hold me *
Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!

* You put a move on my *

* Heart *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Beautiful.
Whoo!
Daly: That is Kaylee Shimizu

bringing it in the playoffs
for Team Legend.

Man, oh, man. Reba.

I can't believe
the range you have.

It's -- It's just
out of this world.
Yeah, it's crazy.

Thank you.
And I hope you have a wonderful
time with your career,

'cause you are destined
for stardom.

Thank you, Reba.

Daly: Niall.
Every time you try
something different,

it's always really good.

And to be 17 years old
and to have,

"Oh, come on, give me any song.
I'll sing it."

[ Laughter ]
Like, you've made
John's decision very difficult.

John, what did you hear
in Kaylee's performance

that stuck out?
John: It really is phenomenal

that you are the age
that you are

and your voice has this much
control and depth and range.

Your low voice
is really gorgeous.

I love the warmth in it.

And then, the fact
that you can do all of that

and then go to those notes
in the stratosphere

that almost no one
on the planet can hit,

you're ready for this.

You're ready to be
a big star.

You're so special,
Kaylee.

Thank you, John.
Thank you.

How about another big hand
for Kaylee Shimizu,

ladies and gentlemen!

Kaylee, you know,
we've all been raving about her

since the beginning.

She just has a supremely

out-of-this-world gift.

She's the kind of talent
that always

does well on "The Voice."

Thank you.

This is going to be
so hard to decide.

We're going to choose
three artists out of six,

and all of them
are so talented.

So, what I'm going
to be looking for

is who really steps up
in these big moments.

Hello, Kaylee.

The anticipation leading up

to his decision
is nerve-racking.

I'm still a little nervous,
'cause you just don't know.

Wow, John.
John:
Tough stuff here.

You got a great team.
Wow.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the playoffs.

Niall: We've got
our finalists.

John...
Um...

...you're up.
Oh, it's me.

Have you got any idea
where you're leaning?

I'm always allowing myself
to pay attention

to how people deliver
in this high-pressure moment.
Yeah. Fair.

John: Reba, this is
gonna be your first
live shows coming up soon.

Are you ready?
I'm a little nervous
about it.

You don't have to make
any more decisions.
But then,
that's the scary thing

about the lives too.
That is the scary thing
about it.

They're my babies.

Who wants to go and see
Johnny Boy suffer?

Yay!
Come on!

Hey!

John: Taylor,
you're back.
Taylor: Hi.

You were my one and only save
in the knockouts.

[ Speaks indistinctly ]

John: I had to save Taylor.
She's so good.

I've loved her since the blinds.

Taylor brings that sweet,

soulful power in her voice.

I'm excited for you
to sing Oleta Adams now.

Thank you so much.
Yes.

At this point
in the competition,

what else
could you be looking for

in this performance
to help me elevate it?

Everybody can sing
who's in the playoffs.

The real question is,
who can connect to the audience?

We want to feel your passion.
We want to feel your emotion.

We want to feel your connection
to the song.

* You can reach me
by railway *

Mm-hmm.
Taylor: I'm singing "Get Here"
by Oleta Adams.

My boyfriend and I were
in a long-distance relationship.

We would go months
without seeing each other.

When I sing this song,
I can't help but think about

all the heartache and longing
that went into that.

We took that leap of faith,

and it's turned into something
really beautiful.

* Just get here
if you can *

I am so proud of you
for chasing your dreams.

And I want you to know
that I love you so much,

and I miss you so much.

* Can *

Yes. Beautiful.

You sound so good.
Thank you.

There's occasions when
I think you run off of the note

more than holding it out,
and I feel like I prefer,

most of the time,
you hold it out.

Okay.
It just feels more
connected emotionally.

On the...

* You can reach me
with your mind *

...I really think
you should sing that melody

the original way
she sings it,

'cause, right now,
you're doing a run off of that.

Together:
* Reach me with your mind *

I really think that melody is,
like, so special in that moment

that I would like
to hear it.
Okay.

Everything else
sounds so good.

Taylor: I want it more than
anything to make it to lives.

Working with him
has been incredible,

and I just want to keep going.

Beautiful.
Alright.

I don't have any saves now,
so I can't save her this time.

It's going to be about
who are my top-three artists

going into the lives.

I hope Taylor can make her case.

[ Cheers and applause ]

You just know this
is going to be good.

This girl can sing.

With "Get Here,"
here's Taylor Deneen.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* You can reach me by railway *

* You can reach me by trailway *

* You can reach me
on an airplane *

* You can reach me
with your mind *

* You can reach me by caravan *

* Cross the desert
like an Arab man *

* I don't care *

* How you get here *

* Just get here if you can *

* There are hills
and mountains *

* Between us *

* Always something to get over *

* If I had my way *

* Surely you would be closer *

* I need you closer *

* You can wind-surf
into my life *

* Take me up on a carpet ride *

* You can make it
in a big balloon *

* But you better
make it soon, oh *

* You can reach me by caravan *

* Cross the desert
like an Arab man, oh *

* I don't care
how you get here *

* Just get here
if you c-a-a-a-a-an *

Yes.
* I don't care *

* I don't care *

* I need you right here
right now *

* I need you right here
right now *

* Yeah, oooooooh *

* I don't care
how you get here *

* Just get here if you *

Ooh!
* Can *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Gorgeous.

Daly: Another stellar
playoff performance.

Taylor Deneen,
ladies and gentlemen,

for Team Legend.

Great job, Taylor.
Coach Reba, what'd you think?

Reba: Taylor,
that was great.

What a voice you have.
Thank you.

John. [Laughs] You've got
a wonderful team, man.
Guy's in trouble, right, Reba?

The three before you,
Taylor, were incredible.

You just added
a little bit of spice there.

It's going to be tough
for John to make a decision.

Way to go.
Gwen.

As soon as you started,
I was like, "Yes, I know this."

Like, literally,
one of my favorite songs.

And it's so perfect
for your voice.

You have such
a unique tone.

It's very recognizable,
your voice.

I would buy
your record 100%.

Thank you.
[ Laughs ]
John.

You just carry yourself
with such elegance.

I just love your tone.

It's got that sweetness,

but it's still really soulful
and powerful

when it needs to be too.
Wow.

And it felt like
you were just putting on

a great concert for us.

You are amazing, Taylor.

I'm so honored
to work with you.

Thank you.
I'm honored to work with you.

Taylor Deneen,
ladies and gentlemen!

John: I love the choices
she makes as a vocalist.

She's only 23 years old.
It's crazy.

And she just carries herself
like she's been here before.

Beautiful.
Daly: Another stellar
performance in the playoffs.

Team Legend
is making me proud.

They're making my decision
difficult, but I love it.

John Legend, who's agonizing
over what's to come.

[ Laughter ]
A decision that no man
wants to ever make.

[ Laughs ]

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

John: Lila! We're in
the playoffs, girl.

Lila: I know.
Can you believe it?

Good to see you.
Good to see you, too.

Lila's voice is so gorgeous.

She's already got so much
going for her as a vocalist,

as a performer.

She's a very,
very special artist.

We have such
a cool song to sing.

Man, I look up
to Bonnie Raitt so much.

She's my girl.
She's incredible.

* I am an old woman *

Lila's singing
"Angel From Montgomery,"

right up her alley
as a vocalist.

Lila's voice is subtle.
She doesn't over-sing.

And I feel like she's
just got to keep going
in that classic lane.

* Make me an angel *

Lila: I'm so grateful
to be singing this song.

It's what I love about music.

It's really a community-
and heart-based song

that makes me feel centered
and grounded.

I feel like my parents
really gave me that

as I was growing up.

They taught me how to be humble
and to work hard,

but also see yourself
being successful.

Making it to the live shows,

it would mean so much to me,
because it would show

that I'm a real contender, so...

[ Inhales sharply ]
Ooh, I hope so.

Yeah, it's building nicely.
Perfect.

I think the goal would be
give it enough drama by the end

that it feels like
a full journey of a performance.

Even though
it's a chill vibe,

it feels, like, a little
too subdued at the end.

So...
* Hard way to go *

Okay, cool.
Something like --

like, be up in that register
of your voice.

Because I just want to hear fire
coming from your voice.

* Make me an angel *

John: I feel like
Lila can keep going.

All the coaches love her.

I think our audience loves her.

Yeah.
The key with this song

is not to try to out-belt
the other artists,

but put your own stamp on it

and show us
some passion as well.

You're killing it.
Thank you.

With "Angel From Montgomery,"
here's Lila Forde.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Let's go, Lila!

**

* I am an old woman *

* Named after my mother *

Yes.
* My old man is another *

* Child that's grown old *

Yeah.

* If dreams were thunder *

* Lightning was desire *

* This old house would've
burned down a long time ago *

Yeah.
* Make me an angel *

* That flies from Montgomery *

* Make me a poster
of an old rodeo *

* Just give me one thing *

* That I can hold on to *

Yeah.
* To believe in this livin' *

* Is just a hard way to go *

* When I was a young girl *

Whoo!

* Well, I had me a cowboy *
[ Laughs ]

* Now, he weren't
much to look at *

* Just a, a free ramblin' man *

* Make me an angel, Lord *
Yeah!

* That flies from Montgomery *

* And make me a poster *

* Of an old rodeo *

* Just give me one thing *

* That I can hold on to *

* To believe in this livin' *

* Is just a hard way to go *

* To believe in this livin' *

* Is just a hard way
to go-o-o-o-o *

* Hard way to go *

Whoo-hoo-hoo!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Hey!
Oh, yeah. Whoo!

Daly: Give it up for Lila Forde,
ladies and gentlemen!

I love her so much!
Great job. Niall, let's get
some thoughts from you.

Hello, producers. Can I have
another steal, please?

[ Laughter ]

Um, you're incredible.
Your runs were so flavorful.

Your lower register
is really nice.

When you get up there,
it's really pretty.

You are one of my favorite acts
I've seen on "The Voice."

Thank you.
It means a lot.

This is high praise, Niall.

Oh, you know how much
I love Lila Forde.
We love to see it.

We love to see it.
Daly: Coach Gwen.

Gwen: Your style
is sort of reminiscent

of almost like
a '70s vibe,

but it doesn't feel like
you're copying it.

It flows through you
so naturally and authentically

that it's exciting for someone
like me to see a young girl

that feels so authentic
and pure.

I'm a big fan.
Oh, my goodness.
Thank you so much.

Coach Reba,
what'd you think?

You've got
a little category

over here by yourself.

I just love the little
inflections in your voice.

It's the complete package.

You got to pick her.
You see that, John?

What did you think
of the performance?

You just have
a certain light about you

that makes you very individual
with a real sense of identity.

The runs you do make these
classic songs sound more modern,

but they don't take you
out of the spirit of the song.

It's like really fresh...
Yeah, exactly.

...but it's classic
at the same time,

and I'm -- I'm just thrilled
to work with you.

I'm thrilled to work with you.
Thank you, John.

Lila Forde,
ladies and gentlemen!

Lila Forde,
what could have been?

Outside of my team,

the best there is
in this competition.

I am in awe of everything
she brings to this competition.

Oh, my God, she's something
special, huh?
She's so cool.

So good.
Niall's in love.
Oh, my God.

If John moves her forward
to the live shows,

she's definitely
a threat to Team Niall --

a threat that I'm okay with.

John: You were the talk
of the knockouts.

It was incredible.

Daly: Mac, congratulations!

Mac, I was really glad John
stole him in the battle rounds,

because if anybody can take him
on to the top, it is John.

I think Mac could be a huge
contender to win this thing.

Come on home, bro.
Mac: Come on.

John: Mac is one of
my favorite R&B voices.

He has such range,
such character, such texture.

I could see him
actually being an R&B star.

So, we picked
this song...
Yes.

...D'Angelo's "Untitled"...
Yes. Yeah.

...and I could just
see you destroying it.

I'm gonna make it do
what it do, baby.

Make it do what it do.
[ Laughs ]

* How does it feel, baby? *

Yeah!

Mac: I heard this song
for the first time

when I was around
13 or 14 years old,

and it started my love
for R&B.

* How does it feel, baby? *
I grew up in a very
religious household,

so the whole R&B thing
is not a thing at the house.

So I had to kind of,
like, sneak off.

I'm sorry, Mama, but, uh,

I knew for a fact
I needed to sing for a living.

Together: * 'Cause I wanna
take the walls down *

Mac: Just being one step away
from the lives

and having an artist like John
as my coach,

what else could you ask for?

* How does it feel? *
So, I have to make sure

that he's pleased
with the performance.

Yeah. So, I saw you
were ad-libbing on
the first few lines,

which I think works
really well.

On the last couple,

that's when you sing
the lyric...

* How does it feel? *

* Yeah *
I got you.

When you're singing the hook,
it connects you to the song

with more fullness
and authority.
Yeah.

Think about what this song
should feel like.

They were recording this
at Electric Lady Studios.

This is where Jimi Hendrix
used to record.

And D'Angelo has
that church background,

so you want to hear
that gospel energy.
Yeah.

There was also, like,
this rock 'n' roll energy too.

So, if you combine
all that together,

that's when
you'll nail it.

John: This song
is so powerful,

and it's got such edge to it.

It's going to be great.
I want to hear Mac

give a sexy...
I can't wait.

...rock 'n' roll performance
and sing himself into the lives.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the playoffs.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Come on, Mac.

He has star quality.
Mm-hmm.

With "Untitled
(How Does It Feel),"

here's Mac Royals.

**

* Girl, it's only you *

Yeah.

* Have it your way, baby *

* And if you want,
you can decide *

* That if you get
a feeling, baby *

* Ooooh, feeling that I feel *

* Fe-e-e-e-el *

Wow.
* Won't you come closer, baby? *

Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!

* To me, baby, yeah *

* Said you already got me
right where you want me, baby *

* I, I just wanna be your man *

* How does it feel? *

* How does it feel, baby? *

* How does it feel? *

* Did it ever cross your mind? *

* How does it feel, baby? *

* Oh, whoa *
Sing, Mac!
Whoo!

* How, ye-e-e-e-ah *

* Oh, baby *

* Oh, no, no *

* Said it's been
on my mind, yeah *

* Baby, close the door *

* Listen, girl, I got something
I wanna show you *

* I wish you'd open up *

* 'Cause I wanna take
the walls down with yo-o-o-u *

* How does it feel, baby? *

* Oh, yeah *

* Said I gotta know
right now, baby *

Whoo!

* Do you know what I'm
talking about, baby? *

* How does it fe-e-e-e-el? *

[ Cheers and applause ]
John: Oh!

-Whoa!
-Whoa!

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!
Daly: That is Mac Royals
from Team Legend.

[ Cheers and applause
continue ]

Another killer
playoff performance tonight.

Oh, my God.
Gwen, what did you think?

I'm literally blown away
right now.

That is a star
standing next to you, Carson.

Oh!
Thank you.

I loved everything about
the way you were on stage,

your body language,
the way you're dressed.

It was perfect.
Thank you, thank you,
thank you.

Daly: Reba.
Reba: Mac, you have grown
leaps and bounds.

I'm so proud of you. I know
your grandma would be, too.

Oh, man, don't do that
to me, Reba.

Niall, I know you got
a lot to say.

Oh, my God, what just happened?
That was insane.

Mmm-mmm-mmm.
Honestly, like,
all of your instincts,

the way you, like,
answered yourself back

in a different tone,
is so tasteful.

I felt like I was watching
the grand finale

and America were just about
to pick up the phone and vote,

'cause, wow, that was
different level, Mac.

Johnny Boy,
he has to go through.

Thank you, thank you.

You know,
I've been making R&B music

for decades now,

and I just put you
right up there with the best

that I've ever been around.

I feel like you are
the complete package

of what R&B music
needs right now.

And when you
came to my team,

I just felt like I understood
you and I believed in you,

and you're just rewarding
that leap of faith that I took,

stealing you back then.

I'm ready to hear a Mac record,
like, right now.

I'm just thrilled
to work with you.

Thank you, thank you,
thank you.

Give it up for Mac Royals,
ladies and gentlemen!
Whoo!

Gwen:
Mac is just incredible.

Why is he not signed?
He reminds me a lot of Usher.

We haven't had an artist in the
world like Mac in a long time.

Yes, sir.

I really hate to say it,
but Team Legend

is stacked up.

The talent on that team
is unbelievable.

It's really diverse.

It's got so many different types
of singers on it.

[ Inhales sharply ] Danger.

This is a tough decision
for John.

I'm glad I don't have
to make it.

I've been deliberating.
Gwen: Did your calculations?

Boop-boop-boop-boop-boop.
[ Laughs ]

Please welcome back
Team Legend!
[ Cheers and applause ]

Yes!
Incredible night of performances
from Team Legend.

All six brought it tonight.

You have a really,
really proud coach over there

who's got an absolutely crushing
decision to make here.

John, how are you feeling?

I'm so torn. You're just
so absolutely talented.

And it's been an honor to work
with all six of you.

-Thank you.
-Thank you, John
-Thank you so much.

John, congratulations.
It's the dream team.

Your team's been awesome.
Yeah.

Alright.

Who is the first artist
moving on?

**

The first artist
moving on...

**

...is Mac.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Mac advancing to the Top 12!

Congratulations!

John: I can't stop
raving about Mac.

I really want
to hear his record.

I want to see him
on the biggest stages.

I feel like R&B needs Mac.

I want him to get signed,
like, yesterday.

I loved it.
I'm proud of you.

And I am so excited

to see what Mac does
in the lives.

-Whoo!
-Whoo!

Whoo!

Okay, John, who is
the next artist moving on?

**

The second artist
moving on...

**

...is Lila.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Lila, you are in the Top 12!

John: I chose Lila because she's
been magical every single round.

No one else like her
in the competition.

Yeah.

She's got such confidence
and presence,

and I think that's really rare.

Lila's future is so bright
on "The Voice" and beyond.

Daly: John, four artists left.
God, they're all good.

So cute.
You can only pick one

to complete our entire Top 12.

The rest will be
leaving us tonight.

Who is your last artist
moving on?

All of you
are so deserving,

and each of you
has a future in this business.

You're all so gifted,
and it's been such a joy

working with
each of you.

Truly, truly my honor.

[ Applause ]

**

The last artist
moving on...

**

...is Azán.

Daly: Azán completes
the "Voice" Top 12

for Season 24!

My super save, Azán,
rose to the occasion

and gave her
best performance yet.

I love you. Thank you.
You earned it.

This performance of "Adorn"
was literally flawless.

I had to reward her
by putting her into the lives.

[ Squealing ]

I love you!
We did it!
We did it!

Daly: Another big hand
for Team Legend!

[ Cheers and applause ]

John: Mac, Lila, and Azán.

Each of them knows who they are.

Their stage presence
is very assured,

like they belong in this moment.

They're real artists,
and I'm excited

to take them to the lives.
Together: Team Legend!

Alright. It's time
to get ready for the lives.
Let's get to work.

[ Sighs ] Let's get
to work, then.
Let's get it.

Let's go, Team Legend!
