[ Switch clicks, heartbeat ]

* This is my heartbeat song,
and I'm gonna play it *

* Been so long... *

The battles.
Here we go.

You guys, I cannot wait to see
who I'm paired against.

Oh, my God!
Yes. Yes.

We're gonna kill it.
Gonna kill it.

I'm getting a little nervous.
This is gonna be a fight.

Kate: And we're practicing.
We're practicing.

Luckily, there are steals
available just in case.

And this new playoff pass
is wild.

Hopefully some are left
when I go.

* This is my heartbeat song,
and I'm gonna play it *

* Been so long... *

Woman:
It's a dream to be coached
by the best in the business.

Y'all ready? Let's get it.

All right, we're going in.
Unh, unh.

Let's get this movin'.

Let's go.
Let's do this.

We'll be like,
unh, unh.

Hello!
[ Singsong voice ]
Hello, Kelly.

Miss Kelly!
What's up, y'all?

Seeing Kelly Clarkson again,
it was a great feeling.

Nice to see you.
Hey, we're matching.

I know. I like a leather.
Oh.

Her hospitality
is very contagious.

She makes you feel
like you're just like her.

She's just freakin'
Kelly Clarkson.

I mean, you know. [ Laughs ]

I'm letting everybody know
there's a playoff pass

that if I feel like
y'all are both killing it,

I can save both of you.

The playoff pass is
the highest honor

we've ever given on "The Voice."

We've never had anybody
be able to skip a level, so...

Skip a level?
Are we playing "Mario Bros."?

What? Round?
Yeah. Sorry.

And you're both
such soulful singers.

I know you did
Ed Sheeran.

* Dancing in the dark *

For the blind audition,
Kelly turning for me

as early as she did,
that kind of surprised me.

It was a reassurance, you know?

And [laughs] at that point,

I just had to,
like, keep singing.

I didn't even look at her
while she turned around.

I just looked at the crowd,
looked at the crowd.

[ Cheers and applause ]

I chose Kelly 'cause she was
fighting for me like a mama.

[ Laughs ]

He turned with, like,
five seconds on the clock.

Mama turned, like,
in the beginning.

Miss Kelly.
Yes!

And I know you did
"Killing Me Softly."

Yeah.
It was like run city.

I was like, okay.

Ali: When I stepped out
onto the stage

for the blind audition,
I just felt anxious.

That was cool.

* And there he was *

But I-I don't know, I just felt
like I was meant to be there.

* Killing me softly
with his song *

I wear two hearing aids.
I was born deaf.

Oh, my God.
That's crazy.

That's insane.

Your runs
were so intricate

and cool and different.

That's a gift.

I just wanted to get
my voice heard,

and I'm so blessed
to have a platform like this

to be able to do that.

My dad is a musician,
and I grew up seeing that,

and I've seen the good parts
and I've seen the bad parts.

But something that my dad
definitely taught me is, like,

don't do it because
you want that next paycheck.

Do it because you love it.

When it comes to music,
although my ears may not work

as well as everyone else's,
that's okay.

That's okay.
There's a way to work around it.

My favorite thing is, like,
to listen to the type of music

that makes you feel things
and, like, got that deep bass.

And that's basically how
I learn a song, is I feel it.

But music is more
than just listening to it.

You want to cry, you want
to laugh, you want to smile.

You want to be like,
"Oh, this is a good song."

And I want to be able
to be that musician.

So I'm ready to do my own music
thing, just like my dad.

He's probably my biggest
musical inspiration ever,

and I-I just want to make
him proud

and do it because I love it.

I was literally going to
the ladies room,

and on the other side of
the wall, I could hear someone

just, like, warming up
like crazy.

Oh,
that probably was me.

Yeah. I was like,
I don't know who that was.

But yeah, I heard --
I was like, he was getting ready

for some Allen Stone.

So I gave Ali and D.Smooth
"Unaware" by Allen Stone

because, of my whole team,
they're the most soulful.

* And every day,
the deficit grows *

Hey.

Come on, Ali.
* Oh *

Ali -- you cannot tell she's had
any issues with her hearing.

Like, she hears things
so differently.

Like, her runs are so intricate,

and I would never think to go
to the places she goes to.

The way she navigates
through an octave is incredible.

She's so on point,

and I guess 'cause she feels it
in a different way.

* On your authority *

D.Smooth -- he's -- he's got
that raspiness to his voice

and he's got that, like, grit.

I hope it blows everyone away,

and I know it's blowing me
away anytime he sings.

And man, I-I'm just so excited
to work with D.Smooth, for sure.

* I was unaware *

We talked about it, and
we were like, "All right,
we're gonna do so good

that we're gonna make Kelly
use that playoff pass on us."

That's a goal. [ Laughs ]

* You care *

Kelly: D.Smooth is
an incredible singer.

You can't teach passion
like that.

You can't teach effortless,
like, runs like that.

He is -- He's one of my
favorite singers on my team.

My family, we did struggle
growing up, financially,

so I feel like this song
can go a lot of ways.

You can relate it
to the relationship aspect,

but you also
can relate it to life.

"Every day the deficit grows" --
you spend more than you own,

people living paycheck
to paycheck.

I've literally been
an eyewitness

to that my whole life.

Growing up, my hustles was
cutting grass, selling candy.

Honestly, I'm trying to change
the trajectory of that.

I'm definitely doing this for
not only myself, but my family.

* I was unaware, babe *

* 'Cause all you do is *

* Push, pull, tear *

* Can't stretch it any farther *

That was so good.
Ali: Thank you.

Thank you, Miss Kelly.
Oh, my God. I just forget
how much I love this.

Aww, we love you.

That was really good.
Oh, man.

Can I give you a hug?
I want to give you a hug.

Don't. I'll break.
I'll break.

Give me a minute.
Give me a minute.

I was so amazed when I was --
when I made Kelly emotional.

That was like, "Holy crap."
[ Laughs ]

I'm just still wiping up
on aisle five over here.

The only thing I was gonna
say is on the -- the, like,

bridge part,
"Push, pull, tear,"

I felt like that "tear"
kind of stayed here.

Mm-hmm.
No.

I will not allow it.
Okay.

* Pull, tear *

Together: * Can't stretch it
any farther *

* Push, pull, tear *

* Can't stretch it any farther *

Let him go.

* Push *
Ali and Kelly: * Push *

* Pull *
* Pull *

* Tear *
* Tear *

* Can't stretch it
any farther *

* Push *
* Push *

* Pull *
* Pull *

* Tear *
* Tear *

Ali: Okay, okay.
Yeah.

Okay.
Just anything like that.

Ali: When I heard Kelly sing
that song to me, I was like,

"Oh my goodness.
I-I-I can't imagine."

I -- Actually, I can
'cause she's amazing.

But I'd like to hear it again,
if you don't mind.

* Push *

* Pull *

* Tear *
* Tear, yeah, yeah, yeah *

Oh, my gosh. Okay.

This is going to be
an incredibly tough decision.

I think it's gonna come down

to who just looks
more comfortable,

'cause they both
are incredible vocalists,

so it's whoever's gonna
kind of perform it better

and feel comfortable
in their skin on stage.

It was so good, so good.

Oh!
Thank you so much,
Miss Kelly.

Y'all have
a blessed night.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Who's got what?
I've got my steal.

I-I don't have a steal anymore,
but I got my playoff pass.

Chance: I still have a steal.
My steal is gone.

But you have your other thing.
So everybody's got something.

* Everybody's got
their something *

* Everybody's got
their something *

**

Daly:
Battling now from Team Kelly,

it's the 24-year-old
from California, Ali,

versus the 25-year-old
from Alabama,

D.Smooth.

Yeah!
Let's go!

Let's do it, girl.
Let's do it, girl.
Let's do it.

The battle starts now.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Oh, this is so,
so good.

**

* Ooh *

* And every day,
the deficit grows *

Hey!
* Oh *

* And you spend more
than you own *

* Mmm *

* And Papa always
said to me *

* Oh, ohh *

* Just keep a close eye
on your authority *

* Whoa *
Come on, Ali.

* You say that you care *

Oh, my God.
I love y'all!

* But I was unaware *

* Oh, oh *

* But you say that you care *

* Say that you care *

* But I was unaware,
unaware, babe *

* I was unaware
'cause all you do is *

* Push, pull *

* Tear *
Whoo!

Sing!
* Can't stretch it any farther *

* Push, pull, tear *

* Can't stretch it
any farther *

Oh, my gosh!
* Push *

* Push *

* And pull *
* And pull *

* Tear *

Oh!
* Push *

* And pull *
* And pull *

* And tear *

* You say
that you care *

* You say that you care
for me, baby *

Yeah!

* But I was unaware *

* I was so unaware *

* And you ain't tell
me nothing, no, no, no *

* You say, you say,
you say, you say *

* Why did you say
that you care *
* You care *

* To me, baby *
* No, no, no, nah, nah *

* But I was unaware *
Oh, my gosh.

* So unaware,
so unaware *
* Unaware *

* Oh, no, no, no *

* You say that you care *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Whoo!

Let's go!

We just crushed it.

Kelly: Love y'all!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Hey!

That's Team Kelly!
Blake: Wow.

Incredible job,
both of you.

Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.

That was just
great music.

I mean, that's what I love
about this job.

That's what I'm going to miss
the most, is just sitting here

with a front row seat

to some of the best concerts
that anybody has ever seen.

That was one of them
right there. Just great job.

Thank you, thank you.
Thank you.

Ali, you have
a lot of confidence

in -- in your performance
and fun and joy.

Great job.

D.Smooth,
I mean, damn, man, I'm a fan.

Like, we're --
[ Cheers and applause ]

What the heck, man?

I think if I was choosing
right now,

based on what just happened,
I would go with D.Smooth.

Wow. Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you.

Niall:
That was phenomenal.

It was just
an unbelievable duet.

Like, there was --
there was no battling in it.

It was just two great singers

giving each other room
to do their thing.

And that's what makes
a great duet always.

If I was going just off
the feeling that I get,

I would just lean, to tilt
a little bit towards Ali.

Okay.
Well, Kelly,
I wish you the best.

Thank you.

Thank you, Niall.

That was a crazy good
performance,

especially the harmonies.

It shows the control
that both of you guys have.

No matter which way you go,

you have a strong chance of --
of winning this whole thing

with either
one of these guys.

Wow.
But I got to say,

if it was up to me,
I would absolutely pick Ali.

Kelly, at the end of the day,
it's up to you.

All right.

Daly: Thank you, Coaches.

All right, Kelly.
Final decision is yours.

Before we find out
the winner,

give us some thoughts
on the battle.

You are world-class singers,
both of you.

Like, incredible things

that people in the Grammys
aren't even capable of doing,

like, in performances.
Wow, thank you.

Thank you so much.
No shade.

Straight up.
Just -- It's incredible.

Thank you.
Thank you.

Like, D.Smooth -- I haven't
heard a dude sing like that

since, like, the '90s.

I don't get to hear
someone like you very often.

Um, you are...
[ Organ music playing ]

[ Laughter ]

It sounded like
we were in church. [ Laughs ]

[ Laughter ]

Do you know what I'm saying?
When you're in church

and they play the music.
Yup, yup, yup.

So if you come down
to the altar. [ Laughs ]

That's what that felt like.
But that's what you did.

You just brought us to church.
That was incredible.

Ali, I know that, like,
your story is crazy.

But even if I didn't know that,
your runs,

how you hear pitch,
how you flow

through a song,
through a run,

it's a God-given talent,
like, not many have.

Thank you.

Kelly, who is the winner
of this battle?

**

Hmm.

**

Oh, man.

Okay, so the the...

the winner
of this battle is...

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly:
Welcome back to "The Voice."

The winner of this battle...

**

...is Ali.

Ali, congratulations.

You're moving on to
the knockouts for Team Kelly.

I really want to prove
to Kelly that I got it

to take it to the end
and sing my heart out.

Oh, my goodness.
[ Laughs ]

Coaches, let me remind you that
D.Smooth's available to steal.

I am beyond grateful
to just be here.

I'm blessed to be here, y'all.
And I appreciate you.

[ Whoosh ]

That's the sound
of a steal!

D.Smooth stolen
by Chance the Rapper.

Oh, thank God!
Oh, my God.

That's your boy.
Oh, man.

Team Chance, man.

Finally, I get to take somebody
from Kelly.

It feels so great.
Can I just say something,
though, real quickly?

I'm using
my playoff pass!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Whoa!

Yes!

Perfect. That's perfect.

[ Cheers and applause ]

I kind of -- I kind of
feel bad 'cause you might want

to work with him,
but I just don't care, man.

[ Laughter ]
Like, I love you.

You have the gift to make it
all the way to the finale.

Thank you so much.

He's one of my favorite people
I've ever had on a team ever,

and I had to use
my playoff pass on D.Smooth

because I just
want him to advance.

I want him to be in the
playoffs, and I want to
see what he's gonna do.

And he's hungry for it, y'all.
He wants it.

You killed it.
It was insane.

Thank you so much.
Thank you so much.
It was incredible.

Chance: This is the second time
I've tried to steal,

but I 100% knew in my bones

that she was gonna use
her playoff pass then.

Hey, man.
Bro!

Thank you, brother.
Thank you.

No. I'm glad you're here, man.
You belong here, man.

I had to try
'cause he's that good,

but I know my steal's coming.

Yes!
Come on! Come on!

Oh, my God. I was not trying
to mess with you, man.

I wasn't. I just --
I-I-I was like,

I don't want to give it away,
but, like, then I felt bad

for Chance 'cause he, like,
really wants you.

He's so --
He was talking all like...

I-I was like -- I was like,
"Oh, Chance, this is about

to not go well
for you."

By the way,
that was impressive,

how you did that.
Oh, my God.

Wait, was that not
the most incredible duet?

Oh,
it was incredible.

Blake: And one of the meanest
things I've ever seen.

* Don't wanna scoot the boots
with no body *

Well, this is, uh, one of many
lasts for me this season.

It's gonna be the last time
that I ever coach anybody

for the battle rounds,

which is crazy
because they were telling me

that I've coached
over 250 artists

in the -- in the 23 seasons
that I've been here.

I had songs on the radio
for 7 or 8 years before

I was ever even on
"The Late Late Show."

And that was in the '20s
and they didn't have

that much radio.
[ Laughs ]

You got a girlfriend?
No.

Well, you got a girl you like,
you think's hot?

He had about 300 the night
of the blind auditions.

All right.

People are just
gonna have a hard time

seeing you if there's
something in the way.

Wow, that was --
I came up with that, see?

I can't even believe you --
you said that.

That's the worst high-five
I've ever had.

I'll give you that one.

Whoa.
[ Laughs ]

I'm gonna go out with a bang,
I can promise you that,

so I'm looking forward
to these --

these final battle rehearsals
that I'm gonna do ever,

and I'm just gonna soak it in.

So here we go.

* Wrap these arms
around no body *

* No body but yours *

Hey.
Hello.

My man.

Walking into rehearsal,

and you see the tallest guy
ever.

The King of "The Voice,"
Blake.

How you doing? Good to see you.
Good to see you.

It is still not fully real
to me yet, but it is amazing.

Grace, you were the last person,
right, that I got on my team?

I am.
The last person

I ever pushed my button for.
The last pick.

* Maybe it was Memphis *

* Maybe it was southern
summer nights *

The second the chairs turned,

I might have blacked out
a little bit.

* But it sure felt right *

Like, almost through
the whole song.

I am from Michigan, but I'm now
living in Nashville, Tennessee,

and I'm 19 years old.
19?

I moved to Nashville
when I was 17,

so I relate to that
so much.

I would be honored if you would
join the last Team Blake

as the last person
that I will ever hit

this freaking
worn out button for.

Wow, that was pretty good.
That was pretty impressive.

Strong pitch.

I think I'm gonna go
with Blake.
Yes!

I ended up choosing Blake 'cause
he has been an idol of mine.

That's his last artist
on "The Voice" ever.

Oh, my God.

You sound incredible.
Thank you.

He's been on the show forever.

He has all this experience,
and he's an amazing coach,

and I wanted to be on
his last team.

What do you think about singing
"I Told You So" by Randy Travis?

I never sang country
before.

Anytime you see, like,
singer/songwriter

on somebody's lane that
they're in, you kind of go,

"I can throw anything
in the world at 'em."

Blake's really looking to pull
something from me

and maybe help me
develop a muscle

I've never
really worked out before.

I've heard you sing
one time.

Man, I thought you sounded

like you could literally
do about anything.

Carlos: Three, four years ago,
I couldn't imagine

having the courage to put myself
out there

and step on stage
for that blind audition.

* Shine it on my heart *

[ Cheers and applause ]

* So you could see the truth *

Everything that I had done up
to that point

led up to this moment.

* And I could change
the world *

When I got those chair turns,
that was the validation

I needed for myself to say,

"You know what?
You do belong here."

When I see someone like you
that I've never heard

anything like before,
that's what gets me excited.

I'd be damn proud to have you
on my last team on "The Voice."

[ Cheers and applause ]

Growing up watching the show,

I always pictured myself
on Blake's team.

He knows what it takes to win,
and it being his last season,

I wanted to get every morsel
of his knowledge.

I knew that Blake
was the right choice.

* Would you say I *

* Told you so? *

Blake: I paired Carlos
and Grace together.

I think both of these artists
can deliver a message,

and that's key to singing
any country song.

* Would you tell me
that you miss me... *

Grace has
a very powerful voice.

She's very authentic-sounding,
super country.

She's got a little twang
in there, and I just love it.

* That I returned *

Carlos says he's never
sang country music before ever,

but you're having a hard time
convincing me of that

'cause he's got
a Vince Gill type range,

and it's super impressive.

* Or would you say the tables
finally turned? *

I'm grateful that Blake
had enough trust in me

to give me this song.

And I have a big task
ahead of me,

but I'm no stranger
to adversity.

Back in 2020, I was in Seattle,
working at a church

as a music director,
and I lost my job.

My wife and I had to drive
across the country

to North Carolina
to move back in with my parents.

It felt like everything
I worked so hard for

to get up to that point
had been for nothing.

But with the support of my wife
and my family,

they encouraged me
to really pursue music.

I took that leap of faith,
and I think back,

what if I had never went through
that adversity before?

I may not be here.

Blake: Everybody's singing
great. I just feel like, Carlos,

you have to sing
more of the lead melody

than you are at some point.

Okay.
It just doesn't feel like
an even split at all to me.

I just think you need to find
one more part

in that chorus
y-you can sing the lead on.

And you got the tag,
together, break, again.
Yeah.

We're figuring out.
We got it.
Correct. Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

* I told you so *

* Oh,
I told you so *

I could never do that,
what you guys are doing.

What?
To just switch up a harmony.

The wheels are working.
I'm working overtime.

Yeah, but your wheels work.
Your wheels work.

Yeah. [ Laughs ]
[ Laughs ]

* Would you say
I told you so? *

Blake: I love seeing artists
come in

like Grace and Carlos did.
* Well, I told you so *

Able to work together and put
things into motion instantly.

Grace: We switched parts around
a little bit, changed harmonies.

I mean, it sounded good before,
but it sounds so good right now.

The song I've loved
ever since I was little.

Growing up in Michigan, I was a
tomboy, so, like, my dad and I,

our father-daughter bonding time
was driving to go fishing.

We would listen to country
the whole way there.

This song came on a lot, and I
absolutely fell in love with it.

I am a country artist.

I've always known what I wanted
to do ever since I was little.

I was so excited moving to
Nashville to pursue my career.

But I miss home a lot.

Using missing home,
taking that emotion

and putting it into the song

is what's gonna just
push it over the edge.

Yes! Way better.

Is it better?
Way better arrangement.

Grace: Carlos does have
more experience than I do.

His voice is amazing, and the
way that he interprets songs,

no matter what genre,
is mind-blowing.

I think to make it
to the knockout round,

I really have
to just work harder.

You're so talented,
both of you.

And I just think you just need
to rehearse this

and get it mapped out.

Yeah.
Mm-hmm.

This is my last season,
as we all know,

and there's nothing
I wouldn't do to win

my 10th season of this show.

See you guys in a few days.
All right, thank you, Blake.

All right,
thank you so much.

I don't have to worry about
getting fired anymore,

so I'm pulling out
all the stops.

Daly: Who would you pick
as the winner of this battle?

Get the "Voice" official app now
and play along.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

Man: Here we go.

[ Cheers and applause ]

90 seconds.
90 seconds, guys.

**

It's a guitar duet.
That's crazy.

[ Cheers and applause ]

This battle begins right now.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

**

* Suppose I called you up
tonight *

* And told you
that I love you *

Oh.
* And suppose I said *

* I want
to come back home *

* And suppose I cried
and said *

* I think I've finally
learned my lesson *

* And I'm tired of spendin'
all my time alone *

* Would you tell me
that you've missed me, too *

* And that you've been
so lonely? *

* And you've waited for the day
that I returned *

* And we'd live and love
forever *

* And that I'm your
one and only *

* Or would you say the tables
finally turned? *

* Would you say
I told you so? *

* Oh,
I told you so *

**

* I told you someday
you'd come crawlin' back *

* And asking me
to take you in *

**

* I told you so *

* But you had to go *

* Now I've found
somebody new *

* And you will never break
my heart in two again *

* Now I've found
somebody new *

* And you will never break
my heart in two *

* Again *

* Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Wow.

Niall: Carlos and Grace,
that was magic.

Carlos, your tone is really
so cool, so husky,

and to hear that blend
against Grace's sweet,

piercing tone was --
was really nice.

Grace, your voice is
just phenomenal.

You've got
a real classic tone.
Thank you.

I'm sad I didn't get you
in the first place.

I think you could go
all the way.

And you're
a phenomenal singer.

The competition doesn't really
have anything like Grace.

So I would lean
towards Grace.

Thank you so much.
Thank you.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Um...that's a good point.
Thank you.

[ Laughter ]
Oh, my God. I was so close.

He beat me.

It's like, "So..."
[ Laughs ]

I really like your tone,
Carlos.

I think that you have
a very unique voice,

but I think
that it's equally matched.

I couldn't even tell you
which way to lean, Blakey Boy.

[ Laughter ]
All right.

Um, I thought that was
so well done.

Carlos, your voice could sing
many different genres.

I think you're that guy
that could literally

tackle a rock song,

a singer/songwriter song,
a country song, a pop song.

I think you're one
of those voices

that can carry
through any genre.

That's
an incredible gift.
Thank you.

Grace, what's cool
about you

is you have this really
special unteachable thing.

It's your tone
and it's your soul,

and you're singing through it,
and it sounds pure to me.

It just depends on your --
your team, Blake,

and, like,
what you've got going on.

My schedule's clear.
I mean, I'm just doing this.

[ Laughs ] Wait, is it
your last season?

You haven't mentioned
it yet [laughs] at all.

So, I don't know.

I think I'm leaning
towards Grace

just because I love
that sound.

It's beautiful.

I don't know. Carlos is
extremely exciting to work with,

too, because he can
do anything.

Yeah, I'm not helpful.
Yeah. [ Laughs ]

Daly: Thank you, Coaches.

All right, cowboy, give us
some thoughts on that battle.

Carlos, it was cool
to hear people

talk about
you can kind of do

a little bit of anything
you want to do, you know?

I mean, you auditioned
with Eric Clapton,

and now you're doing
Randy Travis,

and you sound incredible
on both of them, man.

And then,
Grace, you know,

it's not about doing a bunch
of different things for you.

It's that you're doing
what you were born to do.

And that's just -- it's country,
whether you like it or not,

when it comes out of your mouth
and you embrace that.

And that's what makes you
classic, you know?

But I do think it was
very evenly matched.

And I appreciate both of you
for all your hard work.

All right, Blake,
this is a tough one for you.

When you're ready, tell us who
is the winner of this battle.

**

**

The winner of this battle
is Grace.

Grace, congratulations.

You're moving on
to the knockouts

representing Team Blake.

Blake: I just feel like Grace
has got an edge

on a lot of artists
in this competition

because she is so authentic
in what she does.

Grace could be a huge artist
in country music,

and I want to be
a part of that journey.

Great job, buddy.
Thanks so much.

Grace did an exceptional job,

and I'd be shocked
if she weren't in the finale.

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

Carlos, anything you want
to say to your coach?

Carlos: I'm very grateful
for this opportunity

that you gave me,
and I'll remember it forever.

Thank you.

Give it up one more time
for Carlos Rising,

ladies and gentlemen.

Blake: Carlos is super talented,
and there's no doubt about it,

but I had to go with Grace.

Her tone, everything was
just perfect.

You're highly predictable.

You said that was predictable,
what I just did?

Yeah, sorry.

Having a little
celebratory drink.

[ Laughter ]

I can't stand him,

but I also love him.

He is the ultimate coach
on this show.

Everybody knows that.

[ Laughter ]

It's a loss for "The Voice,"

but also it's a gain
for humanity,

'cause you get
to see less of him.

[ Laughs ]

So there's that.

Do you like your drink?

Delicious. Thank you.

Ahh!
Daly: Coming up...

Hey, hey!
Daly: ...our coaches push

their artists to new heights.
Take charge, y'all.

Yes!
It's y'all show.

Do the harmony thing, and make
sure that they're really tight.

Girls...have fun.
Thank you.

* That's all
they really want *

Daly: And the performances
blow the roof

off the "Voice" stage.

* On these days,
it feels like you and me *

* Heartbreak anniversary,
yeah *

Whoo!
Come on, boys.

Whoo-hoo!
It's crazy.

Insane.
That was phenomenal.

You two should be
in the finale.

Daly: Wait!
We got to steal!

That is the playoff pass!

Whoa!

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

Are you excited?
This is your, like, first --

I can't wait.
It's my first battles.

This is kind of -- You kind of
ruined it a little bit for me,

because I'm always
the one that's like,

"I've been in
a singing competition."

Well...
And you've been
in a singing competition,

and we, like --
we both won.

We didn't win.
What?

We didn't win.
You didn't win your show?

No.
Well, we got a medal.

Third place.
So you do know where we --

[ Laughs ]

Honestly,
what is this?

You should lead with, "I can
help you get to third place."

[ Laughs ]

Kate: I was so stoked
when I found out

that we were paired together.
Tiana: I know!
I was so excited.

Yeah. I can't believe that we're
actually working with Niall now

after just the chair turns
and all the, like, magic.

Finally.
Yeah.

I didn't get
a chair turn last time.

Now that I'm here,
it's, like, surreal.

* It's just emotions
taking me over *

* Caught up in sorrow *

Knowing that Niall
turned his chair

and believed in my vocals...

Oh, my God!

...it just feels
so validating.

In your blind audition,
you with your guitar,

your whole vibe
was just beautiful.

* I say a little prayer
for you *

Kate: I would have been honored
to be on any team,

but I freaked out
when Niall turned around

because he's such
a great songwriter

and that's what I hope to do.

Niall: There's an already-made
star in there.

You've got this
Italian confidence.

You've got such a cool vibe
to you.

Thank you.
It's clown couture.
[ Laughs ]

I'm super excited
to be coached by Niall.

Let's do it.
Let's go.

I would just love
to pick up

all the little pieces
that make a superstar.

Oh-oh!

What's up?
Hello!

Tiana: Hello!
How are ya?

I paired Kate and Tiana
together

simply because I knew
that both of them

knew exactly who they wanted
to be as an artist.

So I thought that
"Girls Just Want to Have Fun"

by Cyndi Lauper was
the perfect song for these two.

How's Nashville?

Nashville's good.
How's engagement world?

Engagement's great.
It's weird.

I feel like I aged five years
when it happened.
[ Laughs ]

After the blind auditions,
I actually got engaged,

which was super exciting.

My fiancé's name is Bennett.

We met on an online dating app,

and he's just
my favorite person.

He's my best friend.

I'm excited to get to share
this moment with my new family,

and this is something that I get
to talk about at my wedding,

like, "Hey, I was on
'The Voice.'

You can see me there."

Your audition, what you did
with "I Say a Little Prayer,"

and then you telling me
that you also wanted to dance.

Yes. Mm-hmm.
Yes.

I've had an idea.

Okay.
Okay.

There's a version of this song
that starts quite chill,

and it allows you to show off
before you dance.

Okay.
For sure.

Let's start with, like,
Kate starting it.
Mm-hmm.

Then, Tiana, you come in
and sing,

"Oh, mama dear, we're not
the fortunate ones."

Okay.
And then try and do
the harmony thing

and make sure
that they're really tight,

'cause it will make
those harmony moments

stand out in what
is a chaotic song.

* I come home
in the morning light *

Niall:
What I love about Kate is

she has the ability
to make any song her own.

She knows who she is.

She knows the type of artist
she wants to be.

* But girls, they want
to have fun *

* Oh, girls *
Niall: Tiana has one of the most

beautiful tones
in this competition.

I love that she's got
a few different sides to her.

* The phone rings
in the middle of the night *

* My father yells *
I relate so much to the song

because of my sisters
and -- and my mom.

It's just girl power
in my household.

That's something I really
appreciate about my mom.

She really encouraged us
to have fun with your sisters

because there's no tighter bond.

Like, my sisters and I,
we're like this,

so I just want
to make them proud.

I just want to put on
a good performance for them.

* Girls just wanna have fun *

Ha-ha!

God, that's so good.
[ Laughter ]

All right. Okay.

I think it's very easy
to get excited

with a song like this,

but it's definitely important
to not over-sing,

and I wouldn't be going,
* The phone rings *

* In the middle
of the night *

* My ma-- *
Okay.

Yeah, I'd be like,
* My father says *

* "What you gonna do
with your life?" *

And just keep it in that world.
Okay.

Being on TV...
Right.

...this is so different versus
if you were out there gigging.

What you have
to remember is...

this -- you keep it tight here,
and then that goes down there,

and it goes straight
through their TVs at home

with no mad reverb.

So whatever goes in here
comes out the other end...

[ Laughter ]

...for the want of
a better phrase. [ Laughs ]
Yep.

Um, so just like when
we're breaking into harmonies,

make sure they're
completely controlled.

How do you calm
your nerves?

The only time
I ever get nervous

is when I'm not fully sure
what I'm doing.

Yeah.
But you know about

this playoff pass?
Yes.

So I-I think that will take
some of the edge off the nerve.

Yeah.
You know, that there's --

if --
if we both do this well,

there's a good chance
that both of us are going.

Girls...
Girls...
Thank you.

...have fun.
Yep.

[ Laughs ]
We're gonna have fun.

We're just trying
to have fun, yep.

That's it.
That's my favorite one, that.

Perfect.
It's beautiful.

Awesome.

I love the both of you
and just --

you know where I am,
talk to me.

Niall cares so much
about his team

and having that one-on-one
experience with him

was just a magical moment.

He's done the competition,
and he's toured the world

and so everything he says
is valuable to me.

I was gonna teach you
a routine.

[ Laughs ] Were you?
Let's see it.

Yeah, what were you gonna do?
Come on, show off the moves.

See, this is where sarcasm
doesn't work in America.

I absolutely haven't got
a dancing bone in my body.

If you teach me yours,
can you do that?

Just a little
butt wiggle.

All we do is...
Uh-huh.

There you go.
Uh-huh.

There you go, you're in it.
Yeah.

Coming out of rehearsal...

Bye!
Niall: See ya!

...my thought was just,
"We got to practice."

Kate: And we're practicing.
We're practicing.

Just nailing the harmonies

and selling this song so that
we get the playoff pass,

because, I mean,
it's a girl-power anthem.

How are you gonna divide us?

You can't.

Oh, I'm done.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly:
Welcome back to the battles
at Universal Studios Hollywood.

[ Cheers and applause ]

[ Laughs ]

This battle begins right now.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* I come home
in the morning light *

* My mother says, "When you
gonna live your life right?" *

* Oh, mama dear, we're not
the fortunate ones *

* And girls,
they wanna have fun *

* Oh, girls just
wanna have fun *

**

[ Laughs ]

* The phone rings,
in the middle of the night *

* My father yells, "What you
gonna do with your life?" *

* Oh, daddy dear, you know
you're still number one *
[ Laughs ]

* But girls,
they wanna have fun *

* Oh,
girls just wanna have *

* That's all they really want *

* Some fun *

* When the working day
is done *

* Oh, girls,
they wanna have fun *

* Oh, girls
just wanna have fun *

* Girls, they wanna *

* Wanna have fun *

* Girls *

* Wanna have *

* Some boys take
a beautiful girl *

* And hide her away
from the rest of the world *

* I wanna be the one
to walk in the sun *

* And girls,
they wanna have fun *

* Oh, girls
just wanna have *

* That's all
they really want *

* Is some fun *

* When the working day

* Oh, girls,

[ Laughter ]

* They just wanna,
they just wanna *

* They just wanna,
they just wanna *

* Girls *

* Girls just wanna have fun *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Yes!

**

Chance: Wow, wow, wow.

That was a really cool
arrangement of that song.

Thanks.
Thank you.

I felt the lyrics
for the first time.

Do you feel like we want
to have fun?

Now I understand you, Kelly.
Now you know.

You just want to have fun.
Oh, you just want
to have a good time.

I get it.
I thought it was awesome.

I think you guys smashed
the choreography.

Thanks.
Thank you.

That's not something
that you typically think about

when you're going to work
on "The Voice,"

but it is definitely
a star quality

and something that you want
to be able to control a stage.

Kate, I just think
you're so cool.

And there was, like, a little
moment where you did something,

and you're, like, singing,
and your head got to going.

I was like, "This is hilarious.
It's so cute."

Glad you think it's cool.
Thanks.

Straight vibes, y'all.

If I had to choose just based on
who I think

is gonna make it as a star,
I wouldn't be able to choose

'cause I think both of you guys
are phenomenal.

Thank you.

True.

But if I had to go
just based off of the battle,

I would have to
give the edge to Kate.

[ Cheers and applause ]

This one can be a little
difficult to show,

like, your
vocal capability, right?

So I thought it was cool
that you did slow it down

in the beginning,
'cause we could hear you

individually, like,
without the fun.

Well, not the fun.
Kate, you sing well.

And also you're
entertaining to watch.

And I thought that was perfect
for this song.

And, Tiana, I loved whenever
you did get your shot

without the harmony,
and it was just you solo.

You were trying to showcase,
like, "This is my tone.

This is how I sound,
you know, kind of thing."

'Cause this can be
a hard song to do

when it's doing
the up-tempo part.

I don't think anybody outdid
anybody here.

I think it's
an even playing field, so...

[ Cheers and applause ]

I feel like Tiana
took the battle.

I mean, I feel like every time
I heard something

that I felt like was exactly
on-pitch and in the pocket,

it was always Tiana.

So that's who
I would go with.

Thank you, Coaches.

Niall, you've got
the final decision.

Give us some thoughts
on the battle.

Pre-battle, Tiana's like,
"I want to get up and dance."

And I was like, "Fair play," and
Kate's saying the same thing.

Like, girl that walks out
with a guitar

wants to now
get up and dance.

So I was like,
"This is perfect."

And a friend of mine
did a version of this song

where it was broken down,

and I just thought that would be
a great way to start

so the girls can show off
what they can do.

And then it broke out
into an amazing performance,

something that you don't get
to see a lot on shows like this.

I'm really proud
of the both of you.

Niall, who's the winner
of this battle?

**

Based off what she can give
to the competition

and the fire and the sass
and the -- the willingness...

I think the winner
of the battle is...

Kate.

Daly:
Kate, congratulations.

You're moving on to knockouts.

Niall: Kate and Tiana
was a very tough one.

I think with Kate,

she's got an amazing,
eclectic taste of music.

You did a great job.

She would take a song,
she would make it her own.

This girl is a ready-made star.

Daly:
Coaches, let me remind you that
Tiana is available to steal.

Tiana, anything you want to say
to your coach?

Niall, it's been a pleasure
being on your team.

Thank you to everyone.

Thank you.
Give it up for Tiana Goss,

ladies and gentlemen.

Wait! We got a steal!

Blake:
Whose got a steal?

Oh, my God!

I'm shaking, I'm shaking.

Daly: Chance the Rapper
uses his only steal!

Yeah!

I made my steal.
Finally, I got Tiana.

I appreciate it.
Oh, yeah, no problem.

Welcome, welcome.
Thank you.

I saw potential,
and she has soul to her voice

and she has a stage presence.

I'm excited to see
what she's gonna do

on Team Chance.
Yes, sir!

I'm just so, so grateful.

But what about Chance,
though?

Oh! [ Laughs ]
That was cool, I guess.

Oh, Chance.
I'm very excited for you.

I'm excited, too.
Thank you.
Thank you.

Absolutely.
Thank you.

Team Chance.

[ Laughs ]

That's my coach.

Did you do
the choreography?
[ Laughs ]

Can you tell?

I mean, there was, like,
some of this stuff.

Like, I literally lost it.
I was like, "This is --

This is cute."

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the battles.

**

Oh, my God.
What's up, ladies?

Hi.
Hi!

I'm so excited
for this performance.

Thank you.
Oh, my God, are you excited?

Yeah!
Yeah?

I'm so excited.
I'm pumped.

I need you to know this is
going to be very hard for me,

because you're both
really stellar

and you're both completely
different singers.

Okay?
Okay.
Yeah.

I've literally been
talking to the coaches.

I'm like, "I have no idea
what I'm gonna do."

I'm gonna make them
use the steal. Okay.

Okay. Bye, y'all.
Bye!

I paired Holly and Katie Beth

because I was curious what
they would sound like together.

Okay. Okay.
That was wild.

I wasn't expecting that.

This was my favorite rehearsal

I think I've ever
experienced on "The Voice."

Hi!
Hi!
Hi!

What's up, y'all?

I gave them Ingrid Andress'
song, "Lady Like,"

because it leans to pop
and it also leans to country.

And that's perfect for them.

I loved both of your voices
so much.

Your voice is definitely
like the sweetness

and how you started out.

That was my favorite part
of your voice,

and I love that you did
Justin Bieber,

I believe with "Ghost," right?
Yeah.

* I'll settle for
the ghost of you *

The blind auditions were
the craziest experience ever.

There you go.
Kelly.

* And if you can't be next
to me *

When Niall and Kelly
both turned for me...

Oh, my gosh.
...my stomach did a flip.

We literally have not heard
anyonelike you.

Like, you will stand out.
Thank you.

I'm proud to be different.

And I think Kelly
took notice of that.

And I think she can help me
figure out

how to be my very best.

Oh, my gosh, Holly.
I-I literally was already like,

"Oh, my God,
what an amazing singer."
