[ Cheers and applause ]

[ Scatting ]

Whoo!

* He fills me up *
Yeah!

* He fills me up *

Daly: That is the sound
of a steal!

Blake: The knockouts this year
are just next-level.

**

These are the last knockouts

that I'll ever get
a chance to coach,

and I am absolutely blown away

because our Mega Mentor
this season

is one of the greatest
country artists of all time.

Oh, my God.

She's a legend
in the industry.

No.
[ Chuckles ]

She has had her own TV show.

Oh, my God!

So the Mega Mentor
this season

is [rolls tongue]

Reba McEntire!

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

I see Reba McEntire,
and I faint.

Oh, my gosh.

She's been in film
and television and music.

You really touched
my heart.
Thank you so much.

Niall:
She is the queen of country.

Blake:
She performed on Broadway.

Kelly: She's won every award
you could possibly win.

She's such a pioneer
for women in music,

and I'm excited
for these performers

to get to grow a little bit more
with her.

* Ain't living lo-o-o-ng
like this *

[ Laughs ]
That was pretty slick.

Whatever the story is,
I see it in my mind.

You just got, like,
advice from, like,

one of the greatest artists
in the whole world.
I know.

She's the ultimate storyteller,
hands down.

You need to almost be
that brink of, "God, help me."

If you do it that way,
we'll feel it.

I'm getting goosebumps
even talking about it now.

It's amazing
to be in her presence.

I'm pretending that I don't have
to pee my pants right now, so...

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

**

Well, this is a full-circle
moment for me

'cause you were my adviser
Season 1.
Uh-huh.

Now it's my last season

and you're mentoring me
one more time.

What does that say
about our relationship?

You brought me into this,
and now you're taking me out.

[ Laughs ]
That's what it means.

Oh, it's so much fun
to be back on "The Voice" again.

It's always a lot of fun
to give advice

because I study people
when they perform,

and I want to be touched
when they're singing to me.

Come on in
to my office here.

I let Kelly use
this office of mine, too.

Well, that was very nice of you
to let Kelly be a part.

This world exposure
for these kids -- phenomenal.

What an education.

I mean, they get to work
with the greatest coaches.

It's just an opportunity
and a chance of a lifetime.

I'm -- I'm excited to see
who our Mega Mentor is, too.

Who this person is...

So, this is one of my steals,
a guy named NOIVAS.

He's a Texas guy.
He's kind of a soul guy.

And then I have Tasha,
who is also very soulful.

And she can cover a lot of
different ground artistically.
Uh-huh.

In the knockouts, artists
are picking their own songs

and this is their chance to show
what lane they want to be in.

Let's bring 'em out here
and see what happens.
Okay. Yeah, let's see.

I hope these artists realize
how lucky they are.

There's really nothing
that Reba hasn't done

andhasn't done well.

Oh, he's got
the cowboy hat on.
What?

Get on out here.
[ Laughs ]

Oh, my God.

Reba McEntire --
the queen of country.

I used to watch her show
back home.

* A single mom
who works two jobs *
Reba: Hi. How you doing?

* Who loves her kids
and never stops *
Hello, hello. How are you?

Oh, my God! Reba!
So nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you, too.

I froze.

I didn't believe
that she was real,

and I started, like, crying.

I had tears in my eyes.
She's a legend.

I mean, it's Reba.
Oh, my God. I know.

Like, oh, okay.

[ Laughs ]

So who's going first?

I'm going first.
Alright. Okay.

So, Reba, Chance
actually blocked Blake.

[ Cheers and applause ]

And so, during my battles,
he stole me.
Perfect.

So I'm ready to do this.
He looks like me up there.
He's got his cowboy boots on.

He's got his hat,
his mullet.
Look at that.

For me to get
one of the last steals

that Blake will ever give
on this show...

I'm gonna take him.
...it's an absolute honor.

I'm singing
"I Put a Spell on You"

by
Screamin' Jay Hawkins.

But I am doing both
Nina Simone's version

and Annie Lennox.
Love her version.

I'm also a girl dad,
so I love the feminine energy.

Good deal.
So, I want to bring that
into this.

Okay.

* I put a spell on you *

I am doing one of the most
iconic songs of all time.

* I ain't lyin' *

* You know I can't
stand it *

* You've been
runnin' around *

I grew up
listening to Nina Simone.

I started to really study her.

She immersed herself
into the music,

and that was the challenge
that I wanted to try.

Can I be that vessel
in this song

and be able to touch everyone?

I think it could move me
to the playoff rounds.

[ Scatting ]

Holy crap.

* Miiiiiine *

NOIVAS -- I had no idea
a guy would have the range,

which is powerful.

Man, I didn't expect that
from you.

That's -- That's incredible.
Incredible.

And you looked
right at me.

You're not afraid
of eye contact. Loved it.

NOIVAS kinda has it all.
I'm figuring that out.

He's got stage presence.

He's not afraid to mean
what he's singing,

and that goes a long way.

So you end with the big
head-voice thing,

and then you went back
into chest voice,

and the transition between
the two goes off the rails.

Got you.
I can guarantee you
she's gonna come up here

and everything's gonna
be put together.

This is the best
of the best now.

And -- And you're
one of them.

I just don't want you
to leave any stone unturned.

Yes, sir.
Blake: Each coach
only has one steal.

That puts extra pressure
on these artists

to bring their A-game
because we're going

to the playoffs from here,
and that's a big step.

Do you think it would be
more powerful

to leave out
the last adlib singing?

Oh, the * Ohhhh *

Like, the outro?
End there and take the adoration

that everybody's gonna be
giving you.

This is an amazing
opportunity

from, like,
the queen of country.

Thank you. Thanks.
You know?

What is some
of the best advice

that you've received?

A woman
named Mae Boren Axton

always told me,
"Show up on time. Be prepared.

Don't waste
anybody else's time."
Awesome.

Two of country's biggest stars

gave me some
really great advice.

I'm definitely gonna
take advantage

and knock out my knockout song.

Good job.
That was amazing.
Thank you. Thank you.

Tasha: I'm really nervous.

NOIVAS' magic,
but I just want to show Blake

that I am a storyteller.

And I hope I get to continue
on his team.

It would be incredible
if I made it to the playoffs.

Maybe I should leave it
right here.
[ Laughs ]

I'm singing
"Take Me to Church" by Hozier.

I'm really excited.

Hozier is so good

with his songwriting
and his storytelling,

and I just want
to be able to do that.

It kind of reminds me
of my husband

and singing it to him.

* My lover's got humor *

Moving from Pakistan
to the United States,

it's a huge culture shock.

* Amen *

Western music
is not a big thing in Pakistan,

and so I slowly just started
getting into more

soul and gospel music.

* Take me to church *

* I'll worship like a dog
at the shrine of your lies *

Having lived so many things
in my life,

I'm able to just emote
the story of a song.

And if everybody's feeling what
I'm feeling during that song,

I'm gonna win this knockout,
hopefully.

[ Vocalizing ]

Whoo! Whoo!

Thank you!
Yes.

How did
that big voice come out

of a little old bitty gal
like you?
[ Laughs ]

Tasha is so cute.

I thought she'll be
a little timid, but huge voice.

Great range.
Just amazingly talented.

My only concern
is the key.

You're having
to get down there,

and it just felt like
losing you a little bit.

But the key you're in takes you
way up there, too, you know?

Stratosphere.

So it might just be
breathing.
Yeah.

'Cause I've heard you hit
the low stuff before.

This is a tough song.

It's got the lowest of lows
and -- and highest of highs.

But I do think this is
a good choice for Tasha

to show
what she's capable of.

How do you connect
with the audience

and make them feel
what you are feeling?

Reba: I've got a video
running in my mind of this song,

so I'm telling the audience
the story as I see it.

Got it.
Bring 'em on stage
with that eye contact

so they think you're there
especially for them.

Mm.
Garth stole that from Reba.

[ Laughs ]
Copied you in every way.

Well, this is an honor.
Well, come on up here.

Oh, thank you.

I can't hit a fourth
of the notes

you guys have,

so I was always giving more

just to be friends
with the audience.

Doing television
helped me with that

'cause when you see somebody
on a sitcom,

you think they're
your best friend

because they were
in your living room.

Doesn't matter if you're playing
for 12 people or 70,000.

Make 'em feel like
you're so glad they're here.

Great advice.

They've got great ranges.

I think what will help Blake
is how the audience react

to each of them.

I'm not gonna lie, Reba.
I follow you on TikTok.

So...
Oh, no kidding?

Blake: Tasha has been
one of my favorites

from the beginning,
and then NOIVAS

coming out of nowhere
with this massive talent --

this may be the hardest decision
I have this season.

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

He's incredible.
Oh, my gosh.

He's on the radar now.

He looked me in the eye.

I can't even do it
with you right now.

I'm trying to --
I'm looking away.
[ Laughs ]

[ Laughs ]

[ Cheers and applause ]

Daly: How about a quick
hello to our four

Playoff Pass artists
right up here?

D.Smooth, Ryley, Manasseh,
and Mary Kate.

Alright, alright,
D.Smooth!

Kelly!
They get to sit out
this week

because they were sent directly

to the playoffs
by their coaches.

They're gonna be here
all night long.

Let's kick it off.
The knockouts begin right now.

Yeah!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Singing "I Put a Spell on You",
here's NOIVAS.

I love this song.

**

* I put a spell on you *

* Because you're mine *

* You better stop
the things you do *

* I tell you, I ain't lyin' *

Come on, lyin'.
Come on, lyin'. Come on.

* I ain't lyin' *

* You know I can't stand it *

* You've been runnin' around *

* You know better, baby *

* I can't stand it,
'cause you're putting me down *

Hey!

* Oh, I put a spell on you *

**

* Because you're mine *

* Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh,
ohh-ohh-ohh *

Yes!

* You know I love you *

* I love you, I love you *

* I love you anyhow *

* And I don't care
if you don't want me *

* 'Cause I'm yours forever now *

Oh!
* I put a spell on you *

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha.

[ Laughs ]

* Because you're miiiiiiine *

[ Cheers and applause ]

* Becaaaaaause *

Whoo!

[ Scatting ]

Yeah!

* You're miiiiiiiiiine *

[ Cheers and applause ]

You're mine.

Yo, wait.

Yo,
he's still on his knees!

That boy a actor!
Geez!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Look at him,
going all the way back!

[ Laughs ]

Good job, man.

[ Cheers and applause ]

[ Sighs ]

And now with
"Take Me to Church",

here's Tasha Jessen.

Mary Kate:
Come on, Tash!

Ryley:
Come on, Tasha!

**

* My lover's got humor *

* She's the giggle
at a funeral *

* Knows everybody's
disapproval *

* Should have
worshiped her sooner *

* If the Heavens
ever did speak *

* She's the last
true mouthpiece *

* Every Sunday's
getting more bleak *

* Fresh poison each week *

* I was born sick,
but I love it *

* Command me to be well *

* A-A-A-A-A *

* Amen *

* Amen *

* Amen *

* Take me to church *

* I'll worship like a dog
at the shrine of your lies *

* I'll tell you my sins
so you can sharpen your knife *

* Offer me
that deathless death *

* Good God,
let me give you my life *

* In the madness and soil
of that sad earthly scene *

* Only then I am human *
Come on!

* Only then I am clean *

* And only then I am human *

* And only then I am clean *

Go, Tasha!

* Take me to chuuuuuurch *

* I'll worship like a dog
at the shrine of your lies *

* I'll tell you my sins
so you can sharpen your knife *

* Offer me
that deathless death *

* Good God,
let me give you my life *

* Take me to church *

* I'll worship like a dog
at the shrine of your lies *

* I'll tell you my sins
so you can sharpen your knife *

* Offer me
that deathless death *

* And Good God,
let me give you my life *

* Take me to chuuuuuurch, ohh *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Damn!

Great stuff.

That was crazy.

Both of you.

[ Cheers and applause ]

NOIVAS, you have got to pay
for a floor cleaning bill.

[ Laughter ]

You've just scraped up
that stage with that mic stand.

That's beyond cleaning.
It's damaged.
Yeah.

NOIVAS, every time,
you just bring it.

Dude, you're impressive.
Wow. Appreciate it.

Tasha, I remember turning
and losing.

[ Laughter ]
I'm sorry.

To take a huge song on
like that,

and to take it
to another level,

stuff that Hozier didn't even
manage to get on the record,

he'd be very proud
of that rendition.
Thank you so much.
Thank you.

Blakey boy,
you've been doing this

for a very long time.

Too long,
some would say.
[ Laughter ]

But, um, I'd lean
towards Tasha.

Okay.
Thank you so much.

Tasha, what I'm really
impressed with is the control

when you're in
that lower register.

Yeah.
It was so fire
to just see you, like,

hold in that space.
Thank you, Chance.

NOIVAS,
you were on my team.

I blocked you
from being on Blake's team,

and you're like,
"You may not have loved me,

but now you're mine,"
and I felt the lyrics

coming towards me.

[ Laughter ]

It was teetering
in the diss record category,

but I was like --

But I just wanted
to let you know, like,

I'm a fan.

The icing on the cake
is that you will do something,

like, swing the mic stand around
in the song, on your knees,

which I thought
was so fire.

I would probably
lean towards NOIVAS.

Your height difference
is just incredible.

It's literally like
if I'm standing next to Blake.

NOIVAS, you, like,
totally embodied

what the message
was about.

We're all fans of you.

Tasha, like,
you shocked me.

Like, a whole other Tasha
came out in this performance.

It sounded perfectly raw
and beautiful.
Thanks, Kelly.

Blake, I think either one
you'd do great with.

Thank you, Coaches.

Alright, cowboy,
it comes down to you.

Blake:
Just flip a coin here.

It was that impressive
on both ends.

NOIVAS, I thought
there was a chance

that you took
the word knockouts literally.

[ Laughter ]

Got a little bit wild,
and it scared me,

and I liked that,
yeah, yeah.

[ Laughter ]

Your talent is shocking,
and it's fearless.

[ Cheers and applause ]

And then, Tasha,
I'm never surprised by you

because you got that
out of the way

when you chose me
as your coach to begin with.

Nobody was more surprised
than I was that you picked me.
I was.

[ Laughter ]

Sorry.
And so it's great
to have, you know,

artists that come
and audition for this show

that you wonder
how in the hell

has this person
not already made it?
Yeah.

Thank you, Blake.

[ Applause ]

Blake, who's the winner
of this knockout?

**

**

Winner of this knockout
is NOIVAS.

NOIVAS,
congratulations!

You are moving on
to the playoffs!

NOIVAS and Tasha has been
the toughest decision

that I've had to make
so far this season.

There was no way for me
to not pick NOIVAS.
Wow.

The guy can sing circles
around anybody.

Thank you, Blake.
Good job, brother.
Come here.

But now I'm realizing
he can also

outperform anybody on the show.

I mean, I really think
this guy has a shot

at winning this thing.

So impressive, dude.
Thank you.

See you next time.
Hey, you caught that.

[ Laughter ]

I was one of Blake's last
steals,

and now I'm going
to the playoffs.

I'm so grateful.

Coach, let me remind you that
Tasha is available to steal.

Tasha, anything you want
to say to your coach?

Steal!
Tasha: Blake,
I've had so much fun.

You call me your little buddy,
and I'm just so glad

I got to have this experience
on your last season.

Like, what an honor.
I'm just so grateful.
Love her.

Give it up for Tasha Jessen,
ladies and gentlemen.

Come on up, Tasha!

There it is!
We got a steal!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Yes! Yes, yes, yes!

Niall: I was gonna
get you at some point.

Tasha, the one
that nearly got away.

Group hug.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Both
my little buddies.

After NOIVAS'
incredible performance,

most people,
including this guy,

would have absolutely
pooped their pants.

Yeah, Tashy!
I love you, baby!

But she smashed it.

I was looking
for a big female voice,

and I got one.

NOIVAS is so fun.

Chance: Yeah, yeah.
Niall:
That was intense.

When he was just
walking out, though,

he was like,
"I'm glad you caught that."

Like, he was --
he was sending shots at me.

He was like
Conor McGregor.
Oh, he was?

Through his --
Through his song.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the knockouts premiere.

Are you ready
for knockouts?
I'm knocking
myself out.

No. The show.
Yes.

So far, so good,
Chance.
Doing pretty well.

Not bad
for the new guys.
I know.

I think we've got
two of the better teams.

I feel like these guys
are probably in here right now,

like, trying to get
a game plan together.

I feel like
between the two of us...

Look at 'em.
[ Laughs ]

Kelly: What's up, y'all?
Hey. We love y'all.

What's up? Oh.
How's it going?

How are you doing?
You alright?

Yeah, no.
Just hanging out.

We were just saying that
we're gonna win.

It looks like
the piranhas won.
[ Laughs ]

That's funny.
Well, you didn't let her
in anything, obviously.

[ Laughter ]

You were good at nothing
in high school.
[ Laughs ]

Do you feel confident, though,
in your team for knockouts?
Chance:
I'm pretty excited.

Yeah, I think it's good
that they got

to pick their own songs,
you know?

How do you feel about this
personally, Blake?

Mm, I'm just ready
for the knockouts.

You guys ready?
Last knockout.

You ready, America?

Let's go knock it out!
Great segue. Come on.

**

Kelly: You're gonna have fun.
Niall's really fun.

Reba: Oh, my gosh.
I've been --
Chance is hilarious.

I've been sitting by him
this season.

He's maybe my favorite person
to sit next to.

He's funny.
Oh, great.
Can't wait.

Kelly:
I've known Reba, actually,

since the beginning
of my career.

I got to sing with her
in Vegas 20 years ago.

I'm really happy
for Blake being his last season.

It's just been
a really good vibe.

Oh, that's nice.
Yeah.

And also,
I've been able to work with her

and tour with her
and learn from her.

She can offer these artists
a wealth of knowledge --

singing, writing,
being on stage.

And I love that
all these artists are gonna get

that same
kind of experience today.

What's up?
Reba McEntire!
Oh, my goodness.

Wow.

Everyone in Texas loves Reba.

My hometown is going
to freak out.

This is the raddest Mega Mentor
we've ever had.

Aww, now.
Amazing.

I paired Ali and Marcos together

because I find them both
to be incredibly soulful.

So I'll be singing "Best Part"
by Daniel Caesar and H.E.R.

Yeah.
And my favorite love story
to sing about is my parents.

* It's the sweetest thing,
ohh *

Ow!

* And it don't change *

My dad was a drummer.
My mom was a singer.

And from there, they just
fell in love. [ Laughs ]

* Won't you
give yourself to me *

* Give it all *

I would not be here
without my parents.

They believed in me,
even at my lowest points.

I do hope that one day

I-I do fall in love
the way that they did.

* If you love me,
won't you... *

It's always been a dream of mine

to be at least
one person's inspiration.

Being deaf has always
been a challenge,

so it would be an honor
to be able to be that person

for those that are like me.

* Won't you
loooooooove *

It's incredible.
Wow.

[ Chuckles ] Thank you.
But just try
something different.

Just in this -- this
repetitive spot.

Yeah.
* If you love me,
won't you say something? *

You -- You say it
over and over.

Just 'cause
it's a competition,

do something just
a little different

than the vibe
that's already there.
Okay.

When you're singing the lyrics,
live 'em.

If you love me,
say something.
Got it.

Yeah.
Dab blame it,
do it now.

'Cause you deserve it.
Suggest heavily.

Suggest heavily.
[ Laughs ]
Suggest heavily.

Got it.

Kelly: Cool thing about Ali is,
as an artist,

it's like she hears
and feels the music

differently than all of us.

She just stands out.

So I'm singing
"Jesus, Take the Wheel",

by Carrie Underwood.

I have always
had a very strong

relationship with God...
Love.

...and despite being told

that I wasn't worthy
of that relationship,

I still have always
had one anyway.

Great. Love that.
Oh, my gosh.
I love that.

That's a great
testimony.

* Going home to see
her mama and her daddy *

* With the baby
in the backseat *

Marcos: I'm Texas born
and raised, so country is in me.

"Jesus, Take the Wheel"
is about

giving the steering wheel
over to God.

Music was my dream
my whole life.

And when I came out,
I lost the support of my family,

and I left music.

I felt like it was
a part of an old life

that I wasn't allowed
to live anymore.

* She was so scared *

Kelly has definitely given me
the confidence

to reboot this whole dream.

* Oh, Jesus,
take the wheel *

Ali: Marcos has that fire in him
whenever he's singing.

And he definitely brought his
A-game. And I'm like, "Alright."

To make it to the playoffs,
I gotta bring mine, too.

* ...on *

* Jesus,
take the wheel *

You can even pause longer.
Just take a breath.

* Jesus,
take...the wheel *

Everything is wonderful.

But I didn't feel it
because you weren't letting me.

You're in a really
desperate time in your life,

and you need to almost to be
to that brink of "God, help me."

If you do it that way,
we'll feel it.

Having Reba connect with me
on a deeper level,

it made me emotional, but I was
fighting back the tears.

[ Laughs ]

Make it more of, like,
a storyteller

and like you're broken

'cause you're asking Jesus
to take the wheel

'cause the load is
too much.

Reba, she's the ultimate
storyteller, hands down,

and she knows how to really
break those walls down.

That's why she's so powerful
as a Mega Mentor,

and I knew she'd be
really good at this.

Really lean into
the storyteller in you.

That is who I am.

It's just gonna come down

to whoever is comfortable
in the moment

and just be the vessel
for the message.

That's what always wins
with me.

You just got, like,
advice from, like,

one of the greatest artists
in the whole world, so...

I know. So epic.

I've totally enjoyed this.
Y'all are great.

Good luck
to both of you.

Thank you so much.
Yeah.

[ Cheers and applause ]
You got this.

I love you. I love you.
I love you. I love you.

I can't wait for this.
Me, too.

With "Best Part", here's Ali.

**

[ Vocalizing ]

* You don't know, babe *

* When you hold me
and kiss me slowly *

* It's the sweetest thing,
ohhhhh *

* And it don't change *

Yeah!

* If I had it my way, yeah *

* You would know
that you are, no *

* You're the coffee
that I need in the morning *

* You're my sunshine in the rain
when it's pouring *

* Won't you give yourself
to me? *

* Give it all *

* I just want to see *

* I just want to see
how beautiful you are *

* You know that I see it *

* I know you're a star *

* Where you go, I'll follow,
no matter how far *

* If life is a movie,
oh, you're the best part *

* Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh *

* You're the best part *

* Oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah *

Whoa!

* If you love me,
won't you say something? *

* If you love me, won't you? *

* Ooh, if you love me,
won't you say something? *

* If you love me, won't you? *

* Lo-o-o-o-ve, ooh, oh *

* Lo-o-o-o-o-o-ve *

Dang!

* Oh, if you love me,
won't you lo-o-o-o-o-o-ve *

[ Cheers and applause ]
Yeah!

Whoo!

Whoo!

You got this.

You got this.
You did so good.

Come on, Marcos!
Yeah!

[ Cheers and applause ]

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the knockouts.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Go, Marcos!
Go, Marcos!

Yeah, Marcos!

Now with
"Jesus, Take the Wheel",

here's Marcos Covos.

Come on, Marcos!

**

* She was driving last Friday
on her way to Cincinnati *

* On a snow-white
Christmas Eve *

* Going home to see
her mama and her daddy *

* With the baby
in the back seat *

* 50 miles to go,
and she was running low *

* On faith and gasoline *

* It'd been a long, hard year *

* She had a lot on her mind,
and she didn't pay attention *

* She was going way too fast *

* Before she knew it,
she was spinning *

* On a thin black
sheet of glass *

* She saw both their lives flash
before her eyes *

* She didn't even have time
to cry *

* She was so scared *

* She threw her hands up
in the air *

* Jesus, take the wheel *

* Take it from my hands *

* I can't do this on my own *

* I'm letting go *

* Give me one more chance *

* Save me from this road
I'm o-o-o-o-o-o-o-on *

[ Cheers and applause ]

* Jesus, take...the wheel *

* Mmm *

[ Cheers and applause ]

[ Speaks indistinctly ]

You did so amazing.

You did, too.

Blake:
I'll start with Ali.

Am I saying
the name right?

Is it Ali?
Yeah. Okay.
Ali. Mm-hmm.

You looked at me like,
"Don't say the name like that."

I just don't like
when you talk.
Okay.

[ Laughter ]

You're so special in the way
that you deliver a song.

You really nail
your intention every time.

Great job.
My gosh. Yeah.
Thank you.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Marcos, there might have been
a little too much

in runs and stuff,
just for my taste.

For that reason,
I'd be going with Ali.

Okay.

Niall: Marcos,
you're always in control.

The low register
and the high stuff,

you always seem to find a way
to make a song work.

And, Ali, every time
you turn up here,

they never feel like
anyone else's songs.

They always just
feel like yours.

We know exactly
who you are as an artist

and the style
that you bring to the stage.

Thank you.
Thank you.

Ali, you're an amazing,
amazing vocalist.

It shines through every time
you get on stage.

It just feels like somebody
that's in control

and has a grasp of what
they're trying to convey.

I think, Marcos, the same thing
could be said about you.

I think the beginning of the
song was a little bit shaky,

but towards the end of it,
you were very much in control.

And I just love moments
like that.

Both of you guys

gave very memorable performances
in "Voice" history.

Thank you.
Daly: Thank you, Coaches.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Alright, Kel, this is not gonna
be an easy one for you.

Kelly:
First of all, Marcos,

you did have
some pitchy moments,

but you sang
the hell out of it, man.

Your voice is just crazy,
and I'm in love with it.

So I'm so proud
that you're Team Kelly.

Ali, you move us,
like, so deeply.

Even at the end of the song,
you were like, "Yeah!"

[ Laughs ]
It was so good.

I love both of you for
completely different reasons.

Kelly,
the time has come.

Who is the winner
of this knockout?

**

Such a bummer.
Um...

**

The winner of this knockout
is Ali.

Ali, congratulations!

You're moving on
to the playoffs!

I won't. Thank you.

I love Marcos, but I had to pick
Ali just because every time,

she delivers,
even in a subtle way.

She has no choice
but to sing,

and that's such
a beautiful gift.

Kelly: Oh, my God!

Thank you.
You did so great.

Thank you so much.

I'm so grateful
and so blessed

to be able to have
this kind of opportunity

and just do what I love to do
and show the entire world.

Daly: Give it up one more time
for Marcos Covos!

Great job, Marcos.

Chance:
This is the knockouts.

The talent level is so high,

everybody's, like,
coming with their A-game.

You only get one steal.

And I'm just looking to see

who's gonna show up
and show out.

Daly: Still to come...

If I really get into it,
they're gonna get into it.

Tell us what you're thinking
in this with your face.

Daly: ...Reba continues
to share her wisdom...

I'm having a hard time
understanding your words.

[ Gasps ] Yeah.
Niall: Keep those words
separate.

* When we were together *

Oh, I like that.

Daly: ...bringing the artists'
performances to new heights.

* Anymo-o-o-o-o-re *

What?!

It's my coaching.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

Niall:
Ryley Tate Wilson.

Hey, what's up, Niall?
What's up, bud?

How you doing?
Good to see you.

You guys up there
are really annoying today.
[ Laughs ]

You're being like --
They're just so smug.

I'm just --
Just sat there,
just like,

"Yeah, we're not
knocking out.

We're going straight
to the playoffs."

I'm just trying
to be relaxed.

I'm not trying --
not trying to be mean.
No, you deserve it.

That's why you got
the Playoff Pass.

They invented it
for people like you.

Got it.
This guy --
Ryley Tate Wilson.

Remember the name,
people.

Someone told me
you play golf.

Reba: I play really good
after one beer.

[ Laughs ] Really?

I'm Tiger Woods-level
at two beers.
Really?

Yeah.
What happens at three?

I better quit.

[ Laughter ]

Niall: To work
with Reba McEntire,

the queen of country music --

I'm getting goosebumps
even talking about it now.

It's amazing
to be in her presence.

Well, the next time
I'm down in Nashville --

Let's go play.
100%.

She's an absolute legend,

and she could pass on her wisdom
not only to my team, but to me.

And you don't get
to do that every day.

Alright, Reba.
Gina, she's really shy.

Aww.
You're going to have
to tell her to...

Speak up?
Speak up?
[ Laughs ]
Yeah.

And then she sings,

and it's like a different person
comes out.

Oh.
It's really cool.

And then Kate's
kinda got, like,

that jazzy
kind of Amy Winehouse-y vibe.

Let's see
what they've got.

Okay.

Here they are.

I paired Gina and Kate

because they're my two female
character singers.

Hello.
Hi, ladies.

Hi!
Look who I've got.

Oh, my God.

I saw the red hair,
and I said --

Please, please. It's Reba.

How are you?

Gina:
I did not expect Reba

to be in the room
with Niall.

I was very starstruck.

I'm gonna sing
"Somebody That I Used to Know."

I'm really close
with my dad.

Love my dad.
Oh, that's nice.

And he was a deejay,
and it was, like,

a song
that we always loved.

Wonderful.

Gina:
My dad was a single dad,

and I feel like it's hard
sometimes to be able to tell him

how much I appreciate
and love him.

So, music is one of the ways
that I can do that.

You always
make me proud,

and I think it's gonna
go fantastic.

Thanks, Dad.
You're pretty awesome.

Well, you're right.
She's very soft-spoken.
Yeah.

Niall told me about Gina
being very soft-spoken.

And then he said,
"Wait till she sings."

* Somebody that you used
to kno-o-o-o-o-o-w *

And he was right --
a powerhouse.

* ...that we were nothin',
and I don't even need... *

She was very in her little world
when she was singing.

And then she'd do this...

* ...change your number *

"Oh, yeah, she's into it."

It was just cute as a button.

Whoo!

Very good.
Kate: Whoo-hoo!

And that sass that you've got
this week.

Really?
I wasn't expecting that.

Excellent.
Thank you.

I'm having a hard time
understanding your words.

[ Gasps ] Yeah?
If you put -- right between
your two teeth, like that,

and you say,
"A-E-I-O-U,"

for some reason, it brings
it all out to the front.

Okay.
And you can understand.

And keep those words
separate.

It's very easy to go
* Now and then, I think about *

Mm-hmm. Yeah.
You know what I mean?

So, give yourself
a bit of space.

Oh, I like that.
I like that.

* Now and then, I think of
when we were together *

Not staccato.
Well done.

From her first audition
to right now,

it's like
a different human.
[ Laughs ]

Gina, she's completely grown.

She just needs to take
that confidence and go for it.

Come on, Kate.
Get up here.

I wish you guys liked
each other. [ Laughs ]

Too much hatred
going on here.

I know.
It's just awful.

[ Laughs ]

Oh, back to the guitar.

It is my baby.

What are you singing?

I'm singing "Call Me"
by Blondie.

Let's hear it.

* Color me your color,
darling *

Whoo!
* I know who you are *

As a kid, I played
music video games all the time,

and that was one of the songs
where I was like,

"Someday, it's gonna be me."

* Call me on the line *

I'm doing a jazzier take,

which is something I try
to embody in my artistry.

* Call me on the line *

Gina: Seeing Kate rehearse,

she's just this amazing,
big personality.

So, hopefully I can also
bring some stage presence.

It's a really big goal
to get to the playoffs.

Kate's stage presence
is really good.

Gina is more timid.

When she does get
more experience on stage,

Gina's gonna be
a powerhouse.

Right now, Kate's got it.

* Call me *
Mm.

Very good.
Thank you.

My favorite parts
are when it's chill.
Yep.

Don't stay with
* Call me! *

With the shouty.
* La di da da *

Yep.
Towards the end,
it gets a bit crashy for me.

I wonder, is there a way
of toning it back?

Trade out the crashing
for more, like, toms
or something like that?

Yeah, maybe.
[ Imitates drums ]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

That could be cool.
So we can hear more
of that jazziness.

Want to come back up,
Gina?

Return to me.
Are you happy?

I'm thrilled to pieces.

I asked a billionaire
one time,

I said, "What is the best piece
of advice you can give me?"

He said, "Have fun."
Mm-hmm.

So, I hope you're having fun
and getting to meet people

that you're gonna
remain friends with forever.

Oh, that makes
my heart happy.

You're the best, ladies.

Playoffs are one step away,

and I thought the battles
were hard on decisions.

This is even harder.

[ Cheers and applause ]

So cute.

Come on, Gina!

With "Somebody That
I Used to Know",

here is Gina Miles.

Whoo-whoo-whoo!

**

* Now and then, I think
of when we were together *

* Like when you said you felt
so happy, you could die *

* Mm *

* Told myself that you were
right for me *

* But felt so lonely
in your company *

* That was love, and it's
an ache I still remember *

* But you didn't have to
cut me off *

* Make out
like it never happened *

* And that we were nothing *

* And I don't even
need your love *

* But you treat me
like a stranger *

* And that feels so rough *

* No, you didn't have to
stoop so low *

* Have your friends
collect your records *

* And then change your number *

* I guess that I don't
need that, though *

* Now you're just somebody
that I used to know *

[ Cheers and applause ]

* I don't want to
live that way *

* Reading into
every word you say *

* You said that
you could let it go *

* And I wouldn't catch you *

* Hung up on somebody that you
used to kno-o-o-o-o-w *

* Make out
like it never happened *

* And that we were nothing *

* And I don't even
need your love *

* You treat me like a stranger
and that feels so rough *

* No, you didn't have to
stoop so low *

* Have your friends
collect your records *

* And then change your number *

* I guess that I don't
need that, though *

* Now you're just somebody
that I used to kno-o-o-o-o-w *

* Oh, now you're just somebody
that I used to kno-o-o-w *

[ Cheers and applause ]
Yeah! Alright, Gina!

Yes, Gina!

That's my girl!

I liked that.

That was cool.

[ Cheers and applause ]

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly:
Welcome back to "The Voice."

[ Cheers and applause ]

Now singing "Call Me",
here's Kate Cosentino.

Come on, Katie!
Alright, Kate!

* Color me your color, baby *

* Color me your car *

* Color me your color, darling *

* I know who you are *

* Come up off your color chart *

* I know where
you're coming fr-o-o-o-om *

**

* Call me on the line *

* You can call me any, anytime *

* Call me, I'll arrive *

* You can call me
any day or night *

* Call me *

**

* Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh *

* He speaks in languages
of love *

* Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh *

* Amore, chiamami, chiamami *

* Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh *

* Appelle-moi mon cheri,
appelle-moi *

* Any time, any place,
anywhere, any way *

* Any time, any place,
anywhere, any da-a-a-a-a-a-y *

* Call me, my love *

* You can call me any, anytime *

* Call me, I'll arrive *

* You can call me
for some overtime *

* Call me *

* Call me for your lover's
lover's alibi *

* Call me-e-e-e-e-e-e *

* Call me *

**

* Color me your color, baby *

* Color me your car *

That was cool.

[ Cheers and applause ]
[ Laughs ]

That was crazy.
Cool.

I don't know, man.

That was insane.

Whoa, Gina.
That was so cool.

I love that song.

That song came out when I was
in high school, and --

Me, too.
[ Laughs ]

[ Laughter ]

The way that
you interpreted it,

like, kept your identity alive
through the whole thing,

which I-I can always respect.

Kate, I know that song.

I've probably, like,
heard that song,

on, like, a skateboard
video game or something.

You weren't in high school
when that one came out.

You weren't born.

Were you in high school
when that song came out?

Probably.
Yeah.

[ Laughter ]

I loved the incorporation
of the guitar.

I felt like you were
just controlling,

like, the whole room.

It felt intimate,

but it kept
getting bigger and bigger.

And you really surprised me.

I thought that was, like,
your best performance.

Thanks.
[ Cheers and applause ]

Gina, I got, like,

Florence + the Machine vibes
from you.
Yep.

Thank you.
What you did with it
was so cool.

Your vocal breaks, like going
all angelic but painful.

You could feel the ache
in your voice.

I loved this performance.

Kate, this is, like,
the lane for you.

What you did
in the beginning and end

let me know
who you were as an artist.

You're just very
rock 'n' roll.

Thank you.

I mean,
here's the thing.

If I were to base it
on the whole time,

I would go with Gina.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Kate, I feel like this

is the first time
I've ever actually seen you.

Like,
that was incredible

because it was just so weird
and out there,

and you just sounded
so good.

Thank you.
And, Gina, every time
you come out here, it's great.

Tonight was great.

Kate just took it
to the next level.

I'd be going with Kate
if it was me.

Thank you, Coaches.

Alright, Niall, another
tough decision here.

Kate, you were amazing
today.

Like, when you sing in that
jazzy tone and play the guitar,

it reminds me
of your first audition.

You know, you're
a quirky character,

and that's why
everyone loves you.

Gina, belief
has been your thing.

And I think the longer
this competition has gone on,

the more confident
you've got in yourself.

I wouldn't have picked
that song for you,

but I think you
absolutely nailed it.

And that's why these
knockout pairings are horrible,

'cause I have to put two people
I really love against each other

and then have to stand here
and make a decision.

Niall, the time has come.

Who is the winner
of this knockout?

**

I just have this, like,
gut feeling.

Ugh.

The winner of the knockout...

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the knockouts.

Niall, who is the winner
of this knockout?

**

The winner of the knockout
is Gina.

Gina, congratulations!

Niall: Kate and Gina --
I really struggled with it.

Gina is just so consistent.

The playoffs is Gina's chance
now to step forward

and just trust in her ability.

She's an unbelievable talent.

Niall's been here for me
since day one

and always in my corner.

Yay, Team Niall! Ahh!

Kate, anything you want
to say to your coach?

Thanks for letting me show
the goofy person that I am

and giving me the chance
to show it on stage.

Thank you.
Give it up
one more time

for Kate Cosentino,
ladies and gentlemen.

[ Cheers and applause ]

The talent level at this stage
is just off the scale.

It's so hard to see really,
really gifted people leave.

Oh, that sucked.
I'm sorry, Niall.

Oh, I hate this.
I get it, though.

Like, consistently,
I think Gina has been better.

She's still so good.

[ Knock on door ]

Hi!
Reba!

[ Laughs ]
Yo.

Reba, she's a legend
in the industry,

Grammy Award-winning artist.

Kelly told me
all about you.

Kelly told -- What did --
What did she say?

She said she loves you.
Oh, I love Kelly.

Her being a top-tier artist
for so long

and -- and having
so many experiences

is something
that we could all grow from.

We have Ray.

He's got, like, a new,
contemporary R&B sound to him.

And then, Nariyella -- a very
big voice, very charismatic.

I put Nariyella and Ray
together

specifically
so that I could see,

you know, who stands
in their own identity the best.

Not Reba. She's an icon.
I know. I'm shook.

Nariyella: Reba,
she's won several Grammys.

She's been nominated
for a Golden Globe.

I love your hair.
Thank you.

Oh, my gosh.
We're both rocking
the red today.

Yes.

It was just an honor

to be in her presence.

So, I am singing

"Bust Your Windows"
by Jazmine Sullivan.

Reba: Ooh, okay.

* I bust the windows
out your car *

Nariyella:
I just love Jazmine Sullivan.

I look up to her
not only as a vocalist,

but as another Black woman
out here, making it happen.

* I'm glad I did it
'cause you had to learn *

I can relate to being
so heartbroken that I was like,

"Look, I'm ready
to make you feel

the same hurt that I feel."

It's not gonna make me
feel that much better,

but, shoot, it helped
a little bit, you know?

* You don't know pain *

I'm more
of a powerhouse vocalist,

so Jazmine Sullivan
is definitely a go-to artist.

Your singing's
incredible.
Yeah.
Thank you.

Would you feel good
about doing the next one

with just the microphone
without the stand?
With no stand? Yeah.

Yeah.

That person that
you're singing about,

you turn
into that character.

You said it.
Come in there
looking sassy,

and you've done something
to pay him back.
Okay.

You have, like, the
technical skill of a vocalist.

Whatever you can pull
from the lyrics is gonna,

like, carry
the song even further.

Nari absolutely knows
who she is as an artist,

and she's going to work hard
to get to that next level.

Alright, Ray.
You ready?

Come on, Ray.
Ray. Let's go.

Ray: Nariyella is
a four-chair turn.

You know, it kind of
makes me an underdog,

but I have a history
of beating four-chair turns.

Ray is moving on.

Ray: I want to make it
to the playoffs,

so I'm planning on winning
this, too. [ Chuckles ]

So, what you singing
for us?

I'm singing "Lately"
by Stevie Wonder.

Why'd you pick that song?

The way he writes his songs
is mind-blowing to me.

* Lately, I have had... *

Ray:
When I found this song,

I had actually just went
through a breakup,

and this song was just, like,

perfectly describing
that for me.

My younger brother was, like,
huge support for me.

He actually flew out
to Arizona from Gary, Indiana,

to help me get through that.

I moved out on my own,

all the way across the country.

So, to have my brother there,

it felt like a piece of home.

* Yeah *

This song, it's not, like,
super crazy vocally,

but I think the passion that's
gonna be put into the song

is gonna make
a lot of difference.

* Goodbye *

You got
a smooth voice.

Great choice
of song, man.

The thing that I was really
wanting to work on

was being a communicator
and a storyteller.

When I'm singing a song,
if I really get into it,

they're gonna
get into it.

And if I'm just
phoning it in,

they're gonna be looking at me
like, "Why do I care?"

So, tell us what you're thinking
in this, with your face.

* Goodbye *

Ray is
a singer/songwriter.

He pays attention to lyrics,

bring songs to life through
understanding human experience.

And I hope he shows off
his intentionality and control.

Even though some people have
never heard that Stevie record,

they'll be like,
"I felt it."

Same thing with the Jazmine
record. Like, I felt it.

Y'all are just great
communicators in that.

Nari, you want to
come back on stage?
Yes, please.

It's gonna be
a tough decision.

They're both so different.

It's just gonna come down

to what Chance needs
for his team.

* This is "The Voice" *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Here we go.

These are both great songs.
Yeah.

With "Bust Your Windows",
here is Nariyella.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* I bust the windows
out your car *

* And, no, it didn't
mend my broken heart *

* I'll probably always
have these ugly scars *

* But right now,
I don't care about that part *

* I bust the windows
out your car *

* After I saw you laying
next to her *

* I didn't wanna,
but I took my turn *

* I'm glad I did it
'cause you had to learn *

* Ooooh, ohhhhh *

* I must admit it helped
a little bit *

* To think of how you'd feel
when you saw it *

* I didn't know that I had
that much strength *

* But I'm glad you'll see
what happens when *

* You see, you can't just play
with people's feelings *

* Tell them you love 'em
and don't mean it *

* You'll probably say
that it was juvenile *

* But I think that
I deserve to smile *

* I bust the windows
on out your car *

* But it don't compare
to my broken heart *

Come on!

* After what you did to me *

* Best believe I ain't sorry *

* I bust the windows
out your car *

[ Cheers and applause ]

[ Laughs ]

Come on, Ray!

Mary Kate: Come on, Ray!

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the knockouts

at Universal Studios Hollywood.

Come on, Ray!

Now singing "Lately",
here's Ray Uriel.

[ Applause ]

**

Oh, yes.
I love this song.

* Oooooh, yeah *

* Lately, I have had
the strangest feeling *

* With no vivid reason
here to find *

* Yet the thought
of losing you's been handing *

* 'Round my mind *

* My mind *

* Well, I'm a man
of many wishes *

* Hope my premonition misses *

* But what I really feel
my eyes won't let me hide *

* 'Cause they always
start to cry *

[ Cheers and applause ]

* 'Cause this time
could mean goodbye *

* Goodbye *

* Oh,
I'm a man of many wishes *

Yeah!

* Hope my premonition misses *

* But what I really feel
my eyes won't let me hide *

* 'Cause they always
start to cry *

**

* 'Cause this time
could mean goodbye *

* Good *

* Goodbye *

Whoo!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Oh, my gosh.

**

Yeah, man!
Good job, Ray!
Good job, Ray!

Oh, yeah.

Whoo.
Kelly: Nariyella,
I want to start with you.

I think that you're so gifted
to get up there

and almost act it out
as you're singing it.

It's so captivating.
I love it.

Thank you.

Ray,
that was so tasteful.

And the runs
were beautiful.

And before
y'all got out here,

I thought I was definitely
gonna go with Nariyella,

but it's hard for anybody to
beat that song, so I'd go Ray.

Thank you.
I thought I was gonna
go Nariyella, too.

And I do think that you had
a good performance.

I feel like today there's
something holding you back.

And in Ray, there's something
so '90s about your performance.

Yeah.
I'd be going with Ray,
if it was me.

Ray, there's some huge male
voices in this competition,

and I feel like you'd slide in
under the radar

because of how slick
everything is.

And, Nariyella,
your voice is, you know,

arguably the best
in this competition.

I think I'd just
lean towards Nariyella.

Thanks, Niall.
Daly: Thank you, Coaches.

Alright, buddy,
give us some thoughts first

and then tell us
who won the knockout.

Ray, you did go bigger
in certain moments on this song.

And this song is, like,
has a lot of movement,

so I know that's difficult.

You really smashed it.
Thank you.

Nari, I think everybody
knows you for the ability

to, like, go big on songs.

But I like that you
focused a lot more

on the attitude of the record.

If I'm going straight off
the voice

and what you guys
have done previously,

Nari would be
the right way to go.

But I think Ray had
the most compelling performance.

It's tough for me
to do this.

Chance, who is the winner
of this knockout?

**

This is very tough.

The winner
of this knockout...

**

...is Ray.

Daly: Ray,
congratulations.

Chance: It's the knockout round
for a reason.

It's who can give a knockout
performance in that moment.

And Ray really did that.

No, great stuff, man.
Thank you, man.

He really showed us his ability
to kind of shapeshift

and take on different songs.

And I look forward to seeing
some of his takes on some more,

like, contemporary work.

You know, Chance was
a one-chair turn for me.

He really believed in me,
and I feel like, you know,

I've been coming out here week
after week and just showing him

that, like, you know,
he didn't make the wrong choice.

Daly: Nariyella, anything you
want to say to Chance?

I'm just grateful to have
been able to work with you.

This is
just the beginning.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Niall:
If I had a second steal,

I would have went Nariyella
all day long.

Any song that she sings
could be on her record.

And that's a sign
of a true artist.

Ray was amazing.
Right?

God.
That's not easy.

Daly: Still to come...
* By myself anymore *

Holy crap.

Daly: ...the artists blow
Reba and our coaches away...

Did my toupee
fly off just then?

Thank you.

Daly: ...leading to steal-worthy
performances.

It's a double steal!

[ Cheers and applause ]

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back to
the knockouts.

* 'Cause I got friends
in low places *

* Where the whiskey drowns
and the beer chases *

* My blues away *

Come on and sing,
* And I'll be okay *

[ Laughter ]
* I'll be okay *

[ Laughs ]

Niall: * O-ro,
the rattlin' bog *

* The bog down
in the valley-o *

* O-ro,
the rattlin' bog *

* The bog
down in the valley-o *

* And in that bog
there was a hole *

* A rare hole,
a rattlin' hole *

[ Laughs ]

I'm Irish.
Do you want to be?

[ Laughter ]

Alright,
so check this out.

This is Season 1.

Reba: Do you sing at home?
I do. All the time.

In front of people?
Oh, my God, it's Xenia.

Oh, I remember her.

Blake: Reba was the person
that I looked to the most

as I was trying to make it
in country music.

Look at us.
We look like babies.
[ Laughs ]

Oh, my God. [ Laughs ]
Oh, my God. Who's that?

After all these years, it's just
fun to have a buddy here.

Oh, my God. I can't.
This is embarrassing.

No, it's cute.

It's embarrassing.
Stop it.

[ Laughs ]

So this pairing
is Kylee and Walker.

Because they have so much
character in their voices.

Bring 'em on.

Oh. [ Giggles ]

Oh, my gosh.

Hi.
Oh, my God.

I, like,
can't even look.

Do you always get
this kind of response

when they walk out
to see you?

Not to see me. No.
Hi.

Kylee: To, like, see
Reba McEntire in real life...
How are you?

...the country legend,
the queen of country,

the country everything,

it took the breath
out of my lungs.

It's great to meet you.
I'm Kylee.

Hi, Kylee, I'm Reba.
Nice to meet you.

Girl, I know you are.
[ Laughs ]

Never in my wildest dreams
did I imagine

I would be face-to-face
with Reba McEntire.

Hi, Walker.
Nice to meet you.

And I was like, Reba,
I love you.

[ Laughs ] I really do.

Kylee, what are you gonna
be singing for us?

I'm singing "All By Myself"
by Eric Carmen.

I'm doing
Celine Dion's version.

Okay, great.

I've always felt kind of
like the outcast.

Outcast?
Everybody loves you.
But I'm just excited.

You sound like my parents.
Okay.

* All by myself *

Kylee: I never fit super cleanly
into my groups of friends

in middle school and high school
and even college.

* Sometimes
I feel so insecure *

Feeling like you're lonely,
it's hard to, like, speak that.

And singing a song like this
is definitely healing.

* And obscure *

Coming on "The Voice",
being around other musicians,

I feel included and loved,

and it's really
stretching me as a person

and as a musician.

* All by myself *

When Kylee came on,
she was real cute, real shy,

and I thought, "Well,

she's gonna have a little
bitty voice probably."

Wrong.

* Anymore *

Holy crap.

Did my toupee
fly off just now?

Thank you.

Oh, my God.

That was so good.

Thank you so much.

You really touched my heart.

That's the biggest thing...
Thank you so much.

...is to capture somebody
in the audience

to where they're sobbing
or laughing.

Get some emotion out of them,
and you did it for me.

Kylee definitely
has a connection to this song.

She made Reba cry.

So that tells you the effect
that this song has on people

when they hear Kylee singing it.

Reba: The only thing I would
play with on this song

is to be totally still.
Okay.

When you watch an actor
sometimes,

the better they perform
is when they're still

and it all comes from here.
Mm-hmm.

What you're doing vocally is...
Mind blowing.

...so I would
play it simple

and then just blow
their faces off.

Literally
melt faces off.
[ Laughs ]

She's bitten off a lot here.

Good job.
Thanks.

It's important for Kylee to step
out and get on people's radar.

Did you know that Walker
in another lifetime

was a member
of The Kentucky Headhunters?

[ Laughs ]
Look at him. Come on.

Tell me he wouldn't
fit in in that band.

He's a lot better-looking.
[ Laughter ]

Are y'all both
from Oklahoma?

Yeah.
Same part.

Like, literally
the next county over

is where she was born
and raised.

And I know people who knew Reba
before she was Reba.

And she made it, so it was like,
this can really happen.

Well, what
are you singing for us?

I'm singing
"Ain't Living Long Like This"

originally by Waylon.

Love that song.
I relate to it
as just a wild kid.

Love it.

Walker:
The opening line is...

* I look for trouble
and I found it, son *

And that was pretty much
us as kids.

I lived in a town, the city
limits were a square mile.

There's not much to do.

Yeah, we got in trouble.

It was never bad, but it
wasn't never good, either.

* Can I, baby? *

This song is honky-tonk history.

It's like, almost country,
almost rock, almost blues,

somewhere in the middle,
and that's where my voice is.

* I live with Angel,
she's a roadhouse queen *

* Makes Texas Ruby... *

Reba: Walker had a little
swagger to him,

and I loved the gravel
in his voice.

It's really cool, really sexy.

* I'm at the bottom
of the jailhouse... *

Watching Walker perform
definitely puts a little

fire under my feet.

There it is.
Reba: Very good.
Thank y'all.

When you smile,
it reminds me of Patrick Swayze.

[ Laughs ]
Oh, my goodness.

The only thing
that I would say is,

* Can't live at all *
that note is the highest note

I think that you have
in the song,

and you just keep going back
to that same spot.
Mm-hmm.

If there's one extra gear
you can find --

* Ain't living lo-o-o-ng
like this *

I could probably do that.
Waylon did that.

He did, didn't he?

That was pretty slick.
Thanks.

And even though this is kind of
a rocked-up version of the song,

Walker is showing that he does
have a country side.

At this point
in the competition, it's tough,

and he's gonna have to show us
what he's capable of vocally.

Great job for both of you.

I'm just happy
we got to meet you.
Yeah.

I'm telling you.
Aww, listen at you.

Reba: Kylee and Walker
are in two different lanes,

maybe two different
interstates.

They're just great.

I would not want to be
in his position.

I'm wondering if
the first time I ever met you

was when you guys
did the grand opening

of the Starstruck
building.

That was '96 is
when we built it.

I may have
shook your hand.

I remember it vividly.

[ Laughs ]

[ Cheers and applause ]

Go, Kylee!

With "All By Myself",
here's Kylee Dayne.

Alright, Ky-Ky!

**

* When I was young *

* I never needed anyone *

* And making love
was just for fun *

* Those days are gone *

**

* All by myself *

* Don't wanna be
all by myself *

* Anymore *

* Hard to be sure *

Oh, my God!
I didn't know she had that.
* Sometimes I feel so insecure *

**

* And love's so distant
and obscure *

* Remains the cure *

* Ohhhh *

* All by myself *

* Don't wanna be
all by myself *

* Anymore *

* All by myself *

* Don't wanna live
all by myself *

* Anymo-o-o-o-o-o-o-re *

* Ohh-oh-ohh *

* By myself *

* I don't wanna be by myself,
by myself anymo-o-o-o-o-o-re *

[ Niall laughs ]

[ Cheers and applause ]

What?!
Pretty good.

Where did that
come from?

That's my coaching.

Oh, you did that?
Well done.

You're welcome.

Yes!

Come on, Walker!

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to night one of the knockouts.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Daly: Now singing
"I Ain't Living Long Like This",

here's Walker Wilson.

**

* I look for trouble
and I found it, son *

* Straight down the barrel
of a law man's gun *

* I tried to run,
but I don't think I can *

* You make one move
and you're a dead man, friend *

* Ain't livin' long like this *

**

* Can't live at all like this,
can I, baby? *

**

* He slipped the handcuffs on
behind my back *

* Then left me reeling
on a steel reel rack *

* They got 'em all
in the jailhouse, baby, yeah *

**

* Ain't livin' long like this,
am I, baby? *

**

* You know the story
'bout the jailhouse rock? *

* Don't want to do it,
just don't get caught *

* They got 'em all
in the jailhouse, baby, yeah *

**

* Ain't livin' long like this,
am I, baby? *

* Can't live at a-a-all like
this, can I, baby? *

Yah!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Blake: Yeah!

**

He did a "Yah!"

Yah!

**

Come on, Kylee.
Yeah, Walker!

My heart's pounding.
Yeah.

That was impressive.

Um, two completely
different ways

to rip the roof off the joint.

Walker, dude,
I felt like that was

in your wheelhouse
right there.

Every time you come out here,
you're fully committed

to getting the -- a good vibe
going in the room.

Kylee...
Thank you, Niall.

...I thought
you absolutely nailed it.

You really got in there
and you just kept going,

and it was incredible.

Walker, you're
technically skilled

in a way where, like,
your pitch is always perfect.

And, yeah, you just felt
comfortable up there.

For Kylee, you completely
blew me away.

That was so raw to me.
Thank you so much.

There were moments
where it got a little pitchy,

but, like, what I respect
the most out of performers

is when they're so in tune
with what they're doing

that they don't let those
kinda things derail them.

Like, you kept going.

And then the last note
that you hit was right on.

And if I had to lean
one way or the other,

I would suggest Kylee
as the winner of this.

Kelly: Walker,
I love this sound for you.

This is, like,
where you are on fire.

I love this lane for you.
It was perfect.

Thank you, Kelly.
Now we'll get to you, ma'am.

[ Laughter ]

You showed not only that
you could, like, conquer

a Celine Dion song,

your little Mariah
riffs in there,

like,
you're 20 years old.

[ Cheers and applause ]

The fact that you're
that kind of bold singer

shows that you want
to win, one,

and, two, shows that you're
capable of doing that.

Mm-hmm.
Thank you so much.
Oh, my God.

Daly: Thank you, Coaches.

Alright, Blake,
it comes down to you, buddy.

I've been dreading
this knockout

because you guys
are so much alike.

Just kidding.
[ Laughter ]

This is tough because it is two
completely different lanes.

Walker, it's probably
a little easier

to define
what it is that you do.

And Kylee, she's
a singer/songwriter artist.

That can kill
a diva pop ballad.

Yeah, but that is like one
small little part

of what
you're capable of.

But because you guys
are so different

and you're both
just so good,

I just kinda got
to base this off

what happens
in the moment.

Blake, who's the winner
of this knockout?

Um...

**

Winner of this knockout
is Kylee.

Kylee, congratulations!

Blake: I had to pick Kylee.

She sang the hell
out of the song.

You want somebody who's willing
to lay it all out there

and swing for the fence
like that.

Yeah, Ky!

I'm so grateful for Blake to
push me through to the playoffs.

I'm just excited to show him
what else I can do.

Daly: Walker, anything
you want to say to Blake?

Thank you, dude.
I wouldn't be here without you.

And to be able to do
what I love,

can't nobody take
that away from me.

And that's -- that's how
I'm going home.

Give it up for Walker Wilson,
ladies and gentlemen.

Blake: It never gets easier,

watching talented people
go home.

But we all want to take the best
team we can to the playoffs.

Kelly: Kylee -- I didn't know
that she had that.

She's great.
Yeah, I know.

I didn't know, either,
by the way.
Why are you being weird?

No, no, because
I was agreeing with you.

I didn't know, either,
until she --

You're not used to
that feeling?
[ Laughter ]

I told Chance that's one --
one coaching session with me.

Oh, my God.
One.

She -- She --
He said she didn't
even speak English

when they first met.
[ Laughter ]

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly:
Welcome back to "The Voice."

Reba: You've got a great team.
Great team.
Kelly: I love my team.

Well, speaking of team,
we have Cait.
Who we got?

She's got a really great voice.
It's an incredible range.

And then, also, I've actually
never worked with Kala before.

I turned for her in the blinds,
but Niall blocked me.

That is a steal!

I stole her from Niall's team
in the battles.

She's incredible.

Excellent.
Yeah.

What's up, y'all?

Reba -- Look at them.
[ Laughter ]

Reba McEntire!
[ Mimics air horn ]

Oh, my gosh.

I see Reba McEntire standing
there, and I faint.

Oh, my gosh.

She's been in film
and television and music.

She has done everything
that there is to do

in the entertainment industry

and is still so kind
and so humble.

Well, I'm really excited
to hear y'all sing.

Kelly:
I paired Kala and Cait

because Cait is one of the
strong front-runners on my team

and Carla is a steal.

So I'm like,
I'm gonna put you against

one of the better people
on my team

'cause I want to see if you're
gonna rise to the occasion.

Whitney Houston.
This is a great one.

Why this song?

A lot of
my nuance in my tone

comes from studying Whitney.

I'm singing
"All The Man That I Need."

Now that I've got a little bit
of love under my wings...

Yeah.
...that really makes me
be able to,

like, give my soul
when I sing it.

* He fills me up *

* He gives me love *

I'm finally experiencing
the love

that she's
talking about in this song.

My boyfriend Cameron has been
such a great support system.

I could not have
a better partner

to be with me
for this entire process.

Hi, my love.
I'm doing this song for you.

Babe, you're gonna
kill it out there.

I love you.

* I need *

Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow.

Oh, my God.

And I liked you taking
the mic off the stand.

That was really cool.
Thank you.

My only thing,
it's a little sharp.

* He fills me up *

Either throw it or add
a little bit of vibrato.

Or hold it.
It gets so big with the band

that sometimes it's hard
to find the center, right?
Mm-hmm. Yeah.

For Cait to pick
a Whitney Houston song,

I thought, she's brave.

I was blown away
not only with her vocals,

but her stage presence.

I know she's going to blossom.

I love how sweet
and intense you are.
Lunch. Yeah.

Yeah, it was just --
Golly wow.

I love that she was like,
"Well, let's go to lunch.

I don't have any notes."
[ Laughter ]

I love Cait.

Gorgeous.
Oh. Stop.

But I'm a little bit
intimidated because I don't have

a lot of professional experience
under my belt.

Alright, Kala, it's my first
time to get to work with you.
Hi!

I'm so excited.
Why did you pick this song?

It's traditionally
a relationship song,

but for me, it's more about
my relationship with music,

wanting to give it
everything that I have

and being here
is really scary.

It shouldn't be.
You belong here.

* And I'd give up
forever... *

I am choosing to sing "Iris"
by Goo Goo Dolls.

This song, at its core, is just
about wanting something so much

that you're willing
to give up anything

and everything to have it.

Yeah.
* I'll ever be,
and I don't want... *

I'm trying to convince Kelly

I should be there
in the playoffs.

* Ohhh, and I don't want
the world to see me *

Yeah!

I was working for a PR agency,

and if I want
to make music my career,

I have to put aside
my career in PR.

It's worth it to know
that I'm having this

once-in-a-lifetime opportunity

to pursue
what I've always wanted.

* When everything's
made...*

Reba: When Kala first came on,
I thought,

wow, the emotion
that she showed, I got chills.

Kelly cried, and that's what
you want from a performer.

Wow. Whew.

I felt your pain on that.
That was so good.

I'm, like, crying.
Oh, my God.

You tell a great story
when you sing.

Oh, I appreciate
that so much.

I love all your choices.

I'm gonna push you
to make a couple more choices.

Any kind of
just deviation

to where it's able
to give that ache.

* And you can't fight the tears
that ain't coming *

Like, just get
a little bit hurt, you know,

with the intensity
of your head voice.
Yeah.

Kelly:
Kala surprised me most.

She can make you cry, um,
after the first three notes.

That's rare.

You guys, great job.

I'm probably
gonna cry, like,

this is gonna be horrible to
pick between you two.
You should.

Yeah, you will.
I know!

Kelly: Cait chose a song,
you know, by Whitney Houston,

which is, like, one of
the greatest vocalists
in all the lands.

But I will say
I have all the faith in her

because she has the range.

That's gonna be my hardest
knockout on who to choose.

Reba: Those two,
I still have chills.

I don't know
about those two.

That's gonna be tough.

Thanks.
Yeah. [ Laughs ]

[ Cheers and applause ]

Singing
"All The Man That I Need",

here's Cait Martin.

[ Vocalizing ]

* I used to cry myself
to sleep at night *

* But that was all
before he came *

* I thought love had to hurt
to turn out right *

* But now he's here,
it's not the same *

* It's not the same *

* He fills me up *

* He gives me love *

* More love
than I've ever seen *

* He's all I've got *

* He's all I've got
in this world *

Ooh!

* But he's all the man
that I need *

[ Cheers and applause ]

* And in the evening
when the moon is high *

* He holds me close
and won't let go *

* He won't let go *

* He fills me up *
Yeah!

* He fills me up *

* He gives me love *

Whoo!

* More love than
I've ever seen *

Yeah!

* He's all that I've got *

* He's all I've got *

* He's all I've got
in this world *

* But he is all the man *

* All the ma-a-a-a-a-a-a-n *

Hey!

* That I, I need *

Oh!

You gotta sing!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Chance: Oh!
Yeah.

That was crazy.
I know.

She's got that Whitney tone.
I know.

Oh, man.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Come on, Kala!

Come on, Kala!
Come on, Kala!

Now with "Iris",
here's Kala Banham.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* And I'd give up forever
to touch you *

* 'Cause I know that
you feel me somehow *

* You're the closest to Heaven
that I'll ever be *

* And I don't want to go home
right now *

* And all I can taste
is this moment *

* And all I can breathe
is your life *

* 'Cause sooner or later,
it's over *

* I just don't wanna miss you
tonight *

Yeah!

* And I don't want the world
to see me *

* 'Cause I don't think
that they'd understand *

* When everything's made
to be broken *

* I just want you to know
who I am *

* And you can't fight the tears
that ain't coming *

* Or a moment of truth
in your lies *

* When everything
feels like the movies *

* Yeah, you bleed just to know
you're ali-i-i-i-i-ve *

* And I don't want the world
to see me *

* 'Cause I don't think
that they'd understand *

* When everything's made
to be broken *

* I just want you to know
who I am *

* I just want you to know
who I am *

* I just want you to know
who I am *

* I just want you to know
who I am *

Damn, girl.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Come on, girl!
Yes! Come on!
There you go, Kala.

Oh, man.

Wow, look. Everybody's giddy
over here. Look at this.

I'm so angry, you both
did such a great job!

[ Laughter ]

Well, I'll throw in
my two cents,

which is not going to matter
to Kelly of all people.
[ Laughter ]

I'll start with Cait.

There was a lot
of sharp notes in that.

I don't know
if that's just nerves,

but, Kala, that was a very
passionate performance,

a lot of emotion in there,
a lot of dynamics,

so I'd be going
with -- with Kala.

Thank you.

Niall: Oh, my God.

Any person that takes on
a Whitney song,

you're already scared,

but you absolutely smashed it,
I thought.

Kala, your storytelling ability
is just insane,

and that's what I lean towards,
so Kala for me.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Thank you.

Kala, I've been trying to get
you on my team this whole show,

but I just want
to emphasize the fact

that Cait just smashed that.

It was spot-on Whitney.

I'm trying so hard
not to curse.

I'm just so, like, floored.
[ Laughter ]

Who took that round by the
throat is Cait all the way.

Thank you.
Daly: Thank you, Coaches.

Oh, man!

Alright, Kel,
it all comes down to you.

You're like two
different ninjas.

One of you, just right in the
face, just knocked 'em out,

and then one of you,
just sneakily from afar,
was like a sniper.

[ Laughter ]

Cait, I'm with Chance.
I thought you killed it.

I thought
it was incredible.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Like, not many people could
have done what you just did.

And, Kala, you're, like,
one of my favorite storytellers

I've ever worked with.
Thank you so much.

You gave me goosebumps.
You totally made me tear up.

You don't deserve to go home,
either one of you.

Kelly, the time has come.

Who is the winner
of this knockout?

**

Oh, man.

You're both
different singers,

but you both impress
the hell out of me.

**

The winner of the knockout
is Cait.

Cait, congratulations!

You're moving on
to the playoffs!

Kelly: Cait came out here,
she killed it.

She loves big, huge songs,
she loves the challenge of it,

and she loves tackling it
in her own way,

and that is what
this competition is about.

Oh, my God. You killed it.
Killed it.

And she is not only one of the
strongest singers on my team,

but in the competition.

Cait: Getting the chance
to go to the playoffs

and keep representing my girl
Kels is all I want to do.

I'm so happy.

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

Kala, anything you want
to say to Kelly?

You are such an inspiration
to me not only as a singer,

but just as a person,
so I can't thank you enough.

Kelly:
Oh, you're so great!

I'm going in.
Give it up one more time!

Yes!
That is the sound
of a steal!

From Blake Shelton!

[ Chuckles ]

That...is a double steal!

Chance the Rapper!

I'm hugging you!
I'm hugging you!

Yes, my little Blakey.

One of us was very clear
that you were the winner

and one of us was painfully
clear that you weren't.

I would be proud --

Wouldn't I be proud
to have her on Team Blake?

Yeah, come on.
Come on! Blake!
I mean, come on.
Don't you want her?

There you go. Hey, do it with
me. Do it with me. Come on.

Here we go.
Uh-huh. Yeah, yeah,
let's go. Come on.

Or you can take
a Chance.
[ Laughter ]

[ Chuckling ] You know what I'm
sayin'? I don't know, just --

Do you remember when
Blake turned around
for you in the blinds?

No, I don't.
I don't remember that.
Oh, you don't remember that,

'cause it didn't happen.
'Cause he didn't do it!

It didn't happen.

I did turn around for you
in the blinds

andI tried to steal you
at battles,

so I was playing
the long game.
That's smart, okay.
[ Laughs ]

We could win together.
Or you could go with Blake.

[ Laughter ]

Daly: Kala, it's all
up to you.

Who do you pick
as your new coach?

I gotta say...
[ Chuckles ]

Blake! Blake!
Chance! Chance!

Kala: ...it's an honor
either way,

but I'm the kind of person
who appreciates the long game,

so I gotta go
with Team Chance.

Ohhh!

Nice.
Daly: Chance the Rapper!

I finally got Kala.

I've been working on that angle
for a while.

Oh, my God!

I'm so glad you chose me. I'm so
glad you're still here, man.

Congratulations.

She adds a different,
smoother take to my team,

a lot of control,
but a softer tone,

and now she's down
with the winning team.

[ Laughs ]
Kelly: Great job, Kala!

Kala:
I loved working with Niall,
I loved working with Kelly,

and I know that Chance
is amazing.

I'm so excited to work with you,
man. It's gonna be amazing.

I'm excited to have you.
Yes, thank you.

I can't wait to see
what we do together.
Thank you, me too!

Alright, Kala.
See you soon.
See you later!

Way to go, Chance.
Blake: That was nice.

Niall: Well done.
That was well done.

[ Laughs ]

Blake: Chance ended up choosing
Cait in the knockout

in order to get Kala on his team
as a steal.

I had no idea. I did not see
that coming at all.

Just when I thought nobody
would play any dirtier than me,

here comes Chance.

I was using tactics, okay?

I was using strategy.

Man: Team Chance!

[ Cheering ]
