The Voice US (2011) s08e11 Episode Script

1 Daly: LAST NIGHT, THE KNOCKOUTS BEGAN.
Blake: THIS IS WHERE THEY REALLY HAVE TO STEP UP.
I JUST WANT THE BEST TEAM I CAN POSSIBLY HAVE.
YOU AND I COLLIDE Daly: THE BEST OF THE BEST FACED OFF GRACIOUS.
YOU MAKE ME FEEL Daly: FOR A SPOT IN THE LIVE PLAYOFFS.
LIKE A NATURAL WOMAN WHOO! Daly: TONIGHT, SIX MORE ARTISTS HI.
WILL HIT THE STAGE WITH SONGS THEY PICKED.
WHAT SONG YOU GONNA BE DOING? "LIVE LIKE YOU WERE DYING" BY TIM McGRAW.
OH, MAN.
"LISTEN TO YOUR HEART.
" "HIGHER LOVE," STEVE WINWOOD.
OKAY.
THIS IS A ROUND WHERE WE GET TO SEE WHAT THEY THINK OF THEMSELVES AS AN ARTIST.
CARRY ON Daly: HELPING THEM ALL, FRONT MAN OF THE BAND FUN.
, WITH OVER 20 MILLION SINGLES SOLD MAY YOUR PAST BE THE SOUND FRESH OFF HIS SOLO HIT "NOTHING WITHOUT LOVE" OF YOUR FEET UPON THE GROUND SINGER-SONGWRITER NATE RUESS.
THERE'S A UNIQUENESS THAT YOUR VOICE HAS, BUT YOU HAVE TO CHILL OUT.
YES.
"THE VOICE" IS GREA BECAUSE YOU GET PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN THROUGH I TO GIVE YOU ADVICE.
THERE'S AN ARC TO A SONG LIKE THERE'S AN ARC TO A MOVIE.
EVENTUALLY, YOU JUST GOT TO GET TO THE CLIMAX.
Pharrell: NATE IS A MASTER ADVISER.
HE'S JUST A MAJOR TALENT.
I SAW A DIFFERENCE IN EVERYONE THAT HE SPOKE TO.
[ SIGHS .]
I HAD THE HAIR ON THE BACK OF MY NECK STAND UP.
Daly: OUR SUPERSTAR COACHES AND KEY ADVISER BRING ME A HIGHER LOVE YOUR MOVES ARE DIFFERENT THAN ANYTHING I'VE EVER SEEN BEFORE.
Daly: WILL PREPARE THEIR ARTISTS TO DELIVER BRING ME A HIGHER LOVE Daly: UNBELIEVABLE KNOCKOUT PERFORMANCES.
CRAZY.
I'M A WARRIOR Daly: AND WITH ONLY CHRISTINA AND BLAKE HOLDING A STEAL Christina: I'M LOOKING FOR A SHOWSTOPPER PERFORMANCE, SO I'M REALLY BEING PICKY RIGHT NOW.
LIVE LIKE YOU WERE DYIN' Daly: THE PRESSURE IS ON.
YOU'RE AMAZING.
THAT'S JUST SOMETHING THAT YOU GOT TO BE BORN WITH.
SOME WILL ADVANCE I THINK MUSIC IS YOUR LIFE.
SOME WILL GO HOME IT'S A TOSS-UP HERE.
WHO DO YOU PICK, ADAM? AND SOME WILL GET THERE'S THE STEAL RIGHT THERE! THE SECOND CHANCE AT WINNING IT ALL.
THIS IS SO AWESOME.
THE KNOCKOUTS CONTINUE RIGHT NOW.
YOU SEEM LIKE A VERY FIT, HEALTHY PERSON.
Nate: I GOT TO LOOK AS SLENDER FOR THE SHOW AS POSSIBLE, YOU KNOW? NEXT TO YOU, IT'S LIKE, IT'S TOUGH TO BE TALL AND THIN.
WHICH ONE OF MY CHINS WERE YOU LOOKING A JUST THEN WHEN YOU SAID THAT? WAS IT MY SECOND OR THIRD ONE? [ Laughing .]
THAT TOTALLY DIDN'T HAPPEN.
YOU THINK I LOOK LIKE A PELICAN, DON'T YOU? HAS SOMEONE CALLED YOU A PELICAN BEFORE? I'VE READ IT ON TWITTER.
ARE YOU SERIOUS? MM-HMM.
ONE GUY WROTE ON TWITTER, "BLAKE SHELTON GOT FAT, BRO.
" LET'S LOOK AT BLAKE'S KNOCKOUT PAIRING.
Blake: THESE ARE MY TWO YOUNG COUNTRY VOCALISTS, AND I WANT TO MOVE THE GUY FORWARD THAT I THINK CAN WIN THIS THING.
Corey: HEY, NATE.
HEY, HOW'S IT GOING? GOOD.
I'M COREY.
Corey: MY ADVISER WAS NATE RUESS, A GRAMMY AWARD-WINNING LEAD SINGER FOR THE BAND FUN.
GOOD TO SEE YOU.
I'M BLAKE, AND I'M -- I'M NOT FUN.
ALL RIGHT.
NO FUN.
THERE'S NOTHING FUN ABOUT ME.
ZERO FUN, SIR.
IT WAS GREAT TO HAVE SOMEBODY THAT'S NOT IN COUNTRY MUSIC AND HAVE A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT INPU THAN WE WOULD HAVE IF IT WAS JUST BLAKE AND I.
FOR MY BLIND AUDITION, I SANG "CHICKEN FRIED.
" AND A LITTLE BIT OF CHICKEN FRIED THE COACHES COULDN'T HAVE MADE IT ANY MORE SUSPENSEFUL ON ME.
YES! OH, MY GOD! HE KNOWS COUNTRY MUSIC, BUT I KNOW ALL KINDS OF MUSIC.
DON'T FALL FOR THIS, COREY.
I'M GONNA HAVE TO GO WITH BLAKE.
YES! YES, COREY.
FROM THE BLIND AUDITIONS ALL THE WAY TO KNOCKOUTS, WITH EACH STEP, I'VE MADE LEAPS AS A PERFORMER.
COREY.
IF I GET OUTSANG, I GET OUTSANG, BUT I WILL NEVER BE OUTWORKED, AND HOPEFULLY, BLAKE SEES THAT.
WHAT SONG YOU GONNA BE DOING? "LIVE LIKE YOU WERE DYING" BY TIM McGRAW.
OH, MAN.
IT'S A BIG SONG.
THINK I'M UP FOR IT, THOUGH.
YEAH.
THIS SONG KIND OF HITS HOME FOR ME RIGHT NOW.
MY GRANDFATHER ON MY DAD'S SIDE IS, UM, FIGHTING FOR HIS LIFE.
AND THIS SONG IS SOMETHING THAT IF I DO RIGHT, I THINK OTHERS WILL FEEL WHAT I'M FEELING.
IT'S A GREAT REASON TO PLAY MUSIC.
THAT'S -- THAT'S WHY WE ALL MAKE MUSIC.
I APPRECIATE IT.
WHAT A GREAT SONG SELECTION.
HE SAID I WAS IN MY EARLY 40s Blake: FOR AN ARTIST TO BE ABLE TO RELATE TO THE SONG THAT THEY'RE SINGING, IT'S POWERFUL, AND YOU CAN SEE IT IN -- IN COREY'S PERFORMANCE THAT HE'S FEELING THIS THING.
DAMN, DUDE.
THAT'S REALLY GOOD.
Nate: YOU COME ACROSS WITH CONFIDENCE.
I-I HAD THE HAIR ON THE BACK OF MY NECK STAND UP.
THE ONLY TIME I HEARD YOU GET PITCHY WAS AFTER THE MODULATION.
I'M SURE IT WAS JUST A BREATHING THING.
YOU DID IT ON THE FIRST KEY OF "I LOVED DEEPER.
" YEAH.
JUST PRACTICE THE TRANSITIONS.
IT'S A TOUGH SONG TO SING.
COREY NEEDS TO WORK ON HIS BREATHING AND WATCH HIS PITCH.
TO LIVE LIKE YOU WERE DYIN' OHHHHHH COOL.
[ SIGHS .]
WHAT'S -- WHAT PART'S BOTHERING YOU? I'M I'M GOOD.
IT JUST -- IT JUST HITS HOME.
I JUST DON'T WANT IT TO BE SOMETHING THAT YOU'RE CONCERNED WITH HERE.
I LOVE IT WHEN YOU GET IN YOUR UPPER REGISTER AND YOUR VOICE STARTS TO SHRED A LITTLE BIT.
AND YOU JUST KIND OF HEAR, "AHHH.
" YEAH, MAN.
YOU CAN'T FAKE THAT, ESPECIALLY IN COUNTRY SINGERS, 'CAUSE NOT A LOT OF US HAVE IT, YOU KNOW? MY GRANDPA WOULD DEFINITELY WANT ME TO GIVE IT MY ALL, AND I'M POURING MY HEART INTO THIS SONG.
BUT I'D BE LYING IF I SAID I WASN'T NERVOUS.
CODY IS A VERY TALENTED GUY.
AT THIS POINT IN THE COMPETITION, ANYBODY COULD KNOCK YOU OFF.
FEELING COMFORTABLE? TOOK THE HAT OFF? IT IS.
IT'S THE FIRST DAY WITHOUT THE HAT.
YEAH, YOU GOT REALLY AWESOME HAIR, THOUGH.
WHAT SONG YOU GONNA BE DOING? "TIL MY LAST DAY" BY JUSTIN MOORE.
REALLY? YEAH.
Cody: I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT FOR ME TO DEFINE MYSELF AS A MODERN COUNTRY ARTIST, BUT I'LL ALWAYS BE TRUE TO MY TRADITIONAL COUNTRY ROOTS.
COMING FROM WEST VIRGINIA, IT'S UNBELIEVABLE THAT I'M EVEN HERE IN L.
A.
I NEVER FLEW BEFORE.
YOU STOPPED LOVING HE-E-E-E-E-R FOR MY BLIND AUDITION, I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO GET A FOUR-CHAIR TURN.
TODAY GOOD JOB, BUDDY.
THAT IS THE BEST COUNTRY-MUSIC PERFORMANCE I HAVE EVER HEARD ANYONE PERFORM ON THIS SHOW.
I PICK BLAKE.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE .]
IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE THAT I'M ACTUALLY WORKING ON MY CAREER WITH A BIG NAME LIKE BLAKE.
CODY, GREAT JOB COMING OUT OF YOUR SHELL AND HAVING SOME FUN UP THERE, AND THE SINGING IS PERFECT.
GOING INTO THE KNOCKOUTS, I DEFINITELY WANT TO CONTINUE SHOWING BLAKE MY VERSATILITY AND GROWTH AS A -- AS AN ARTIST.
PEOPLE SAY I'M JUST A ROUGH BOY Nate: CODY'S VOICE WAS A TREAT FOR ME, 'CAUSE IT'S NOT LIKE I HANG OUT IN COUNTRY BARS, SHOOTING POOL.
LOVIN' YOU Nate: AUTHENTICITY IS SOMETHING THAT YOU'RE SEARCHING FOR.
HE HAS IT.
I'LL BE LOVIN' YOU WOW! WHEW! TOOK A LOT OUT OF ME.
WHAT DO YOU THINK, NATE? Nate: YOUR VOICE WAS SO POWERFUL.
YEAH.
IT WAS AMAZING.
ONE THING THAT I WOULD AVOID IS THE GROWL THAT YOU THROW IN.
YEAH.
UH I-I-I'LL BE LOVIN' YOU YOU WANT ME TO KEEP IT CLEANER? HERE'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU THROW IN A GROWL -- IT MAKES ME THINK YOU CAN'T HIT THAT NOTE.
I'M A LITTLE BIT AFRAID OF IT BECAUSE I THINK IT LOOKS LIKE HE'S DISGUISING SOMETHING THAT HE'S NOT CAPABLE OF DOING.
I'LL BE LOVIN' YOU Blake: THIS IS DEFINITELY GONNA BE ONE OF MY TOUGHEST DECISIONS.
BOTH OF THESE GUYS ARE ARTISTS THAT I CAN HEAR BEING PLAYED ON -- ON COUNTRY RADIO.
GIVE IT EVERYTHING YOU GOT, BUT DON'T USE TRICKS, YOU KNOW? JUST KEEP IT PRETTY.
YEAH, KEEP YOUR HAIR PRETTY, TOO.
I'M TELLING YOU, MAN, YOU NEED TO GROW IT BACK OUT.
DO YOU USE FRUCTIS OR? EVERY NOW AND THEN, I PUT CONDITIONER ON THE ENDS.
CONDITIONER JUST ON THE ENDS? YOU CONDITION THE ENDS? JUST ON THE ENDS OF IT.
THIS IS JUST WHAT THE LADY THAT TRIMMED MY HAIR, SHE SAID THAT IF YOU PUT CONDITIONER, LIKE, IN YOUR SCALP AND STUFF, IT GETS -- MAKES IT GREASY.
WOULD YOU SAY THAT THAT WAS BETTER ADVICE THAN WHAT BLAKE GAVE YOU TODAY? YEAH.
[ LAUGHTER .]
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE .]
SINGING "TIL MY LAST DAY," HERE IS CODY WICKLINE.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE .]
PEOPLE SAY I'M JUST A ROUGH BOY I AIN'T NO GOOD FOR YOU, GIRL IT'S A DEAD-END STREET, TRYIN' TO LOVE ME YEAH, I'LL WRECK YOUR WORLD WELL, I CAN SEE WHY THEY'RE ALL TALKIN' LOOKIN' BACK AT MY PAST WELL, I'VE GOT A BAD NAME, BUT A MAN CAN CHANGE I'M LIVIN' PROOF OF THAT TILL MY LAST DAY, TILL MY LAST BREATH OF ANYONE THAT CAN, I CAN LOVE YOU THE BEST TILL MY LAST DAY I'LL BE LOVIN' YOU TILL MY LAST DAY, TILL MY LAST BREATH OF ANYONE THAT CAN, I CAN LOVE YOU THE BEST TILL MY LAST DAY I'LL BE LOVIN' YOU WHOA, BABE, TILL MY LAST DAY YEAH! OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE .]
OKAY.
Daly: COMING UP LOVED DEEPER Daly: COREY DELIVERS AN EMOTIONAL PERFORMANCE THAT LEAVES BLAKE WITH AN IMPOSSIBLE DECISION.
NOW I HAVE THE WORST JOB IN THE WORLD.
AND LATER JUST A LITTLE LATE I'M A WARRIOR Daly: OUR COACHES ARE BLOWN AWAY YOU'RE ONE OF THE ONES MY TEAM HAS TO LOOK OUT FOR.
MAN, YOU WERE FEELING THE MOMENT, AND CLEARLY, EVERYBODY SEEN IT.
CRAZY.
WHAT'S HAPPENING IS PERFECT SINGING.
AND EAGER TO STEAL.
THERE'S THE STEAL! OOH! THIS IS "THE VOICE" Daly: WELCOME BACK TO NIGHT TWO OF THE KNOCKOUTS.
WITH "LIVE LIKE YOU WERE DYING," HERE IS NOW COREY KENT WHITE.
HE SAID I WAS IN MY EARLY 40s WITH A LOT OF LIFE BEFORE ME WHEN A MOMENT CAME THAT STOPPED ME ON A DIME I SPENT MOST OF THE NEXT DAYS LOOKIN' AT THE X-RAYS TALKIN' 'BOUT THE OPTIONS AND TALKIN' 'BOUT SWEET TIME I ASKED HIM WHEN IT SANK IN THIS MIGHT REALLY BE THE REAL END HOW'S IT HIT YA WHEN YOU GET THAT KIND OF NEWS? HEY.
WHOA.
MAN, WHAT YA DO? HE SAID I WENT SKY DIVIN' I WENT ROCKY MOUNTAIN CLIMBIN' I WENT 2.
7 SECONDS ON A BULL NAME FU MANCHU AND I LOVED DEEPER AND I SPOKE SWEETER AND I GAVE FORGIVENESS I'VE BEEN DENYIN' AND HE SAID, "SOMEDAY, I HOPE YOU GET THE CHANCE TO LIVE LIKE YOU WERE DYIN'" LOVED DEEPER AND I SPOKE SWEETER AND I WATCHED AN EAGLE AS IT WAS FLYIN' HE SAID, "SOMEDAY I HOPE YOU GET THE CHANCE TO LIVE LIKE YOU WERE DYIN'" TO LIVE LIKE YOU WERE DYIN' OHHHHHHHHHHHH [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE .]
Daly: GIVE IT UP FOR CODY AND COREY IN A KNOCKOUT FOR TEAM BLAKE! HE'S -- HE'S A STAR.
HE'S A STAR.
MISS AGUILERA, WE'LL START WITH YOU.
COREY, YOU CAME OUT WITH SO MUCH HEAR AND SO MUCH -- MUCH PASSION.
I LOVED HOW IT STARTED OUT TENDER.
AND YOU REALLY ACTED IT OUT, AND I SAW ALL THE EMOTION.
AND, CODY, YOU WERE JUST POURING YOUR HEART INTO YOURS, TOO.
YOUR VOCALS AT THE END HELD IT OUT REALLY, REALLY STRONG.
SO, BOTH OF YOU ARE JUST SOLID, SOLID CONTENDERS.
NICE JOB.
THANK YOU.
COACH PHARRELL? THANK YOU.
CODY, I DIDN'T KNOW THAT YOU HAD THOSE KINDS OF RUNS.
GOT SOME SOUL IN THERE.
YEAH.
Pharrell: SOME REALLY GOOD, INTERESTING COLORS THERE.
AND, COREY, ALWAYS BEEN A FAN OF YOURS.
YOU KNOW, I PUSHED MY BUTTON FOR YOU, AS WELL.
ASIDE FROM SINGING A SONG IN THE GREAT WAY THAT YOU SING IT, I AGREE THERE WAS SOMETHING ABOUT YOUR PRESENCE.
YOU KIND OF LOOK LIKE YOU'RE ALREADY OUT THERE.
BLAKE HAS A TOUGH DECISION BECAUSE BOTH OF YOU GUYS HAS, I THINK, WHAT IT TAKES TO -- TO WIN.
THANK YOU.
ADAM LEVINE.
YOU GUYS BOTH GAVE STELLAR, HARD-TO-ARGUE-WITH PERFORMANCES.
AS FAR AS DELIVERING A VOCAL IN AN UNBELIEVABLY, CONVINCINGLY GENUINE AND PASSIONATE WAY, COREY TAKES THIS ONE.
BUT I WAS SURPRISED TO FEEL THAT WAY BECAUSE I'M -- CODY, I'M A HUGE FAN OF YOURS, TOO, MAN.
I MEAN, I-I JUST -- I GOT TO GO WITH COREY ON THIS.
I THINK HE WON THIS ONE.
THANK YOU, ADAM.
BLAKE, IT ALL COMES DOWN TO YOU, BUDDY.
CODY, YOU HAVE A SOUND THAT IS JUST SPECIAL, SOMETHING THAT WE DON' HAVE ENOUGH OF TODAY IN -- ON THE RADIO, AND THAT'S SOMETHING THAT IS APPEALING TO ME AS A COACH.
COREY, I DON'T THINK I'VE EVER HEARD YOU SING LIKE THAT, AND I DON'T EVEN KNOW THE SITUATION NOW -- MY GRANDFATHER FLEW HOME YESTERDAY, AND HE'S ONE HIS WAY TO RECOVERY, SO OKAY, GOOD.
I'M VERY THANKFUL FOR THAT.
GOOD.
[ APPLAUSE .]
WHEN WE WERE REHEARSING, HE HAD A HARD TIME EVEN TALKING ABOUT WHY HE WAS DOING THIS SONG.
WHEN HE GOT UP HERE AND PERFORMED IT, HE DUMPED ALL OF THAT EMOTION INTO THAT SONG.
WHEW! THAT'S WHAT THE SONG IS ABOUT, YOU KNOW? THAT'S WHAT WE FELT.
GETTING ONE MORE CHANCE TO -- WE FELT THAT, I THINK, FOR SURE.
YEAH.
THAT'S IMPORTANT TO BE ABLE TO TAKE A REAL-LIFE SITUATION AND TURN IT INTO ART.
THAT'S JUST SOMETHING THAT YOU GOT TO BE BORN WITH.
NOW I HAVE THE WORST JOB IN THE WORLD.
I GOT TO MAKE THIS DECISION, AND I DON'T WANT TO.
THE WINNER OF THIS KNOCKOUT IS COREY.
COREY'S GONNA MOVE ON TO THE LIVE PLAYOFFS, REPRESENTING BLAKE SHELTON.
CONGRATULATIONS.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE .]
THANK YOU.
CONGRATULATIONS, MAN.
THANK YOU.
GREAT JOB.
Corey: THE FACT THAT MY GRANDPA WAS GONNA BE OKAY AND BE ABLE TO SEE THIS WAS ENOUGH FOR ME, AND -- AND -- AND THIS IS BETTER THAN IT COULD'VE EVER WORKED OUT IN MY WILDEST DREAMS.
CODY, ANYTHING YOU WANT TO SAY TO BLAKE SHELTON? NOW IS YOUR CHANCE.
UM, I NEVER THOUGHT THAT I COULD EVER MAKE IT THIS FAR.
IT'S BEEN AN HONOR TO WORK AND TO GROW FROM THIS EXPERIENCE.
YES, SIR.
GIVE IT UP FOR CODY WICKLINE, EVERYBODY.
Blake: CODY VERSUS COREY TORE ME UP PRETTY BAD.
I'LL SHOOT YOU AN E-MAIL, BROTHER.
I DO FEEL LIKE COREY REALLY CONNECTED WITH THAT LYRIC IN A -- IN A DEEP WAY.
HE'S THE REAL DEAL, NO DOUBT ABOUT IT.
THAT WAS ROUGH.
WHO KNEW HE WAS GOING THROUGH THAT? Christina: CODY WAS SPECIAL, BUT I ONLY HAVE ONE STEAL, SO I'M REALLY BEING PICKY RIGHT NOW.
Daly: COMING UP I'M NOT THE MAN THEY THINK I AM AT HOME Daly: ADAM GETS SOME COACHING OF HIS OWN.
YOUR PITCH IS WONDERFUL.
AND STILL TO COME I'M A WARRIOR Daly: ONE KNOCKOUT BRING ME A HIGHER LOVE Daly: SHOCKS OUR COACHES IT'S ALMOST LIKE SOMETHING JUST TAKES OVER HER BODY WHEN SHE STARTS SINGING.
AND HAS PHARRELL AT A LOSS.
WHO'S THE WINNER OF THIS KNOCKOUT? THE WINNER, UM THIS IS "THE VOICE" Daly: WELCOME BACK TO THE KNOCKOUTS.
I'M NOT THE MAN THEY THINK I AM AT HOME NO, NO, NO, NO I'M A ROCKET MAN YOUR PITCH IS WONDERFUL.
IT'S 'CAUSE ALL I DO EVERY DAY NOW IS TELL PEOPLE HOW TO SING.
Daly: AS ADAM AND NATE SETTLE IN, LET'S LOOK AT ADAM'S KNOCKOUT PAIRING.
Adam: I PAIRED DEANNA AND BLAZE TOGETHER BECAUSE THEY'RE VERY DIFFERENT.
THEY BOTH HAVE THEIR OWN UNIQUE VOICE, BUT I WANT TO SEE WHO SHINES THROUGH.
YO! BLAZE! WHAT UP, THOUGH? Adam: NATE.
BLAZE.
YO.
BRING IT IN HERE.
WHEN I WALKED IN AND SAW NATE RUESS, THE LEAD SINGER OF FUN.
, I WAS LIKE, "THIS IS CRAZY," 'CAUSE, YOU KNOW, HE DEFINITELY REPRESENTS THE TYPE OF ARTIST I WANT TO BE -- POP-ROCK AND, YOU KNOW, A LITTLE POP-SOUL.
WHAT ARE YOU SINGING FOR US TODAY? I AM SINGING "YOU FOUND ME" BY THE FRAY.
THERE'S NOT A LOT OF GUYS THAT LOOK LIKE ME, YOU KNOW, THAT SING THIS STYLE OF MUSIC.
MY FAMILY, WE DIDN'T HAVE THAT MUCH MONEY, SO IT WAS A HARD STRUGGLE GROWING UP.
MY DAD WAS A JANITOR AT THE SCHOOL THAT I WENT TO, AND KIDS WOULD MAKE FUN OF ME IN FRONT OF MY DAD AND MAKING FUN OF MY DAD IN FRONT OF ME.
MY DAD SAID, "SON, BE BETTER THAN WHAT I AM RIGHT NOW.
DON'T STOP.
DON'T QUIT.
" WHERE DID I GO WRONG? I LOST A FRIEND THAT'S MY BOY.
YOU DON'T FIT THE MOLD.
YOU EXIST OUTSIDE THE BOX.
Blaze: I AM LIVING THE DREAM RIGHT NOW.
JUST TO SIT HERE AND LOOK HOW FAR I'VE CAME, YOU KNOW, IT'S TRULY A BLESSING.
I FOUND GOD ON THE CORNER OF FIRST AND AMISTAD Adam: BLAZE'S LOWER REGISTER -- I HAD NEVER REALLY HEARD THE PURITY OF THAT PART OF HIS VOICE, AND I WAS -- I WAS PRETTY BLOWN AWAY.
LOST AND INSECURE Adam: SOUNDS FULL AND CONFIDEN AND THIS IS A GOOD SONG FOR HIM TO SING.
YOU FOUND ME-E-E-E-E YOU'VE GOT A GREAT VOICE, AND YOU CAN HIT THE HIGH NOTES, BUT YOUR PITCH IS JUST A LITTLE OFF.
YEAH, OKAY.
SO, TRY TO CONTROL IT THE WAY THAT YOU DO WITH THE LOW STUFF, 'CAUSE THE LOW STUFF IS FLAWLESS.
HE'S HITTING THOSE FIRST FEW NOTES, AND YOU'RE LIKE, "OH, THIS DUDE'S KILLING IT," BUT I WANT TO KNOW, LIKE, "YEAH, I'M RIGHT HERE FEELING THIS.
" THAT -- THAT MEANS SO MUCH MORE TO ME.
LET'S PUT A MICROPHONE STAND IN FRONT OF YOU.
I AGREE.
I THINK THAT'S A COOL VIBE FOR THIS SONG, 'CAUSE IT'S GOT SOME -- SOME DARK UNDERTONES.
I THINK OF SOMEONE LIKE EDDIE VEDDER, HE CONTAINS ALL THAT PASSION AND -- AND ENERGY.
IT'S ALMOST LIKE HE CAN PERFORM STANDING STILL.
MM, YEAH.
I CAN CONNECT WITH THE SONG.
GROWING UP, AS A CHILD, I DIDN'T HAVE A LOT OF THINGS.
SOMETIMES I USED TO QUESTION GOD, LIKE, "WHY AM I IN THIS SITUATION?" BUT, YOU KNOW, AT THE END OF THE DAY, HERE I AM, AND HE FOUND ME.
YOU FOUND ME, YE-E-E-E-E-AH THAT IS A DRAMATIC DIFFERENCE.
YOU WEREN'T TRYING TO PRESENT US SOMETHING, WE WERE FEELING SOMETHING.
THANK YOU.
Deanna: FOR SEASON FIVE, I DIDN'T GET ANY CHAIRS TO TURN.
I THINK YOU'RE NO MORE THAN A YEAR AWAY FROM BEING SOMEONE WHO CAN COME BACK OUT HERE AND WIN THIS SHOW.
MY NERVES GOT THE BEST OF ME, BUT I FEEL LIKE I AM MORE READY THAN I WAS THEN.
ALL I WANT IS AND ALL I NEED IS THIS SEASON, I CAME BACK AND GOT FOUR CHAIR TURNS.
THERE ARE DEFINITELY SOME THINGS THAT I HEARD THAT NEEDED A LITTLE BIT OF WORK.
RIGHT.
MY GOAL IS TO MAKE YOU BETTER.
I'M GONNA PICK ADAM.
IN THE BATTLES, ADAM HELPED ME KIND OF OPEN UP AND REALLY COME OUT OF MY SHELL.
I REFUSE TO LET INSECURITY TEAR YOU APART.
IT'S GOT TO STOP NOW.
I WANT TO GO FAR IN THE COMPETITION.
I WANT TO LEARN AS MUCH AS I CAN.
Adam: SO, WHAT ARE YOU GONNA SING FOR US TODAY? "LISTEN TO YOUR HEART.
" THE ROXETTE VERSION? JUST LIKE ACOUSTIC AND SLOWED DOWN.
COOL.
I CHOSE THIS SONG BECAUSE IT REALLY SHOWCASES MY RANGE.
IT'S JUST ME AND THE PIANO, SO YOU'RE GONNA HEAR EVERY SINGLE LITTLE FLAW IF I HIT ONE, WHICH I PROBABLY WILL.
LISTEN TO YOUR HEART WHEN HE'S CALLING FOR YOU DEANNA'S VOICE IS SO DISTINCT.
IT'S INSANE.
NO ONE HAS THAT THIS SEASON.
YOU TELL ME GOODBYE THERE'S JUST A UNIQUENESS THAT -- THAT'S MISSING IN MUSIC TODAY THAT YOUR VOICE HAS, BUT YOU HAVE TO CHILL OUT.
YES.
YOU'RE MAKING ME NERVOUS WITH HOW NERVOUS YOU ARE.
YOUR CONTROL -- YOUR CONTROL OVER YOUR VOCALS ARE SO CONNECTED TO YOUR CONFIDENCE.
OKAY.
JUST TO EXPERIMENT, JUST DON'T EVEN OPEN YOUR EYES.
JUST CLOSE YOUR EYES AND SING THAT SONG.
I WAS GONNA SAY THAT, DUDE.
[ LAUGHS .]
NICE.
ALL RIGHT, THANKS.
AT SOME POINT, YOU JUST HAVE NO CHOICE.
YOU JUST HAVE TO LOSE IT FOR A SECOND.
LISTEN TO YOUR HEART I THINK SHE'S GOT MORE POTENTIAL THAN ANYONE THAT I'VE SEEN.
KEEP AT IT, 'CAUSE WHEN YOU GET TO WHERE WE KNOW YOU CAN GET TO -- OOH! I-IT'S GONNA BE UNBELIEVABLE.
I MEAN, IF ADAM AND I HAD A FAKE RECORD LABEL, YOU KNOW, I THINK THAT WE'D PUT A LOT INTO DEVELOPING YOU.
[ CHUCKLES .]
I WOULD PERSONALLY BELIEVE IN WHAT YOU CAN ACCOMPLISH.
THANK YOU.
Deanna: I THINK I GET SO NERVOUS BECAUSE I DON'T SING IN FRONT OF BIG CROWDS.
SO, TO GO FROM SINGING IN MY BASEMEN WITH JUST ME AND MY DAD TO SINGING AT "THE VOICE" IS, LIKE, MIND-BOGGLING TO ME.
I'M GONNA PRACTICE MY LITTLE BUTT OFF.
NOTHING THAT GETS YOU OFF TRACK MORE THAN YOUR HEAD.
WE'RE NOT OUT OF THE WOODS YET.
WE HAVE A LOT OF WORK TO DO, BUT I THINK THAT'S A GOOD THING.
THANK Y'ALL SO MUCH.
I'LL PRACTICE.
THEY'RE BOTH GREAT.
I MEAN, I DON'T KNOW WHO I'D PICK RIGHT NOW.
Blaze: I'VE FACED A LOT OF ADVERSITY IN GETTING HERE.
I WAS A PERSON THAT THEY TOLD I WOULDN'T AMOUNT TO ANYTHING.
NOW THAT I'M HERE, I'M ONE STEP CLOSER, YOU KNOW, TO MY DREAM, AND I WANT TO BE ABLE TO FULFILL THAT.
Deanna: I'VE COME SO FAR SINCE SEASON FIVE, SO IT'S SO IMPORTANT TO SHOW ADAM THAT I CAN OVERCOME MY NERVES.
I'M ONE STEP AWAY FROM THE LIVE PLAYOFFS.
I'M GONNA GIVE IT MY ALL.
SINGING "YOU FOUND ME," HERE IS BLAZE JOHNSON.
I FOUND GOD ON THE CORNER OF FIRST AND AMISTAD WHERE THE WEST WAS ALL BUT WON ALL ALONE SMOKING HIS LAST CIGARETTE I SAID, "WHERE YOU BEEN?" HE SAID, "ASK ANYTHING" LOST AND INSECURE YOU FOUND ME, YOU FOUND ME LYIN' ON THE FLOOR SURROUNDED, SURROUNDED WHY'D YOU HAVE TO WAIT? WHERE WERE YOU? WHERE WERE YOU? JUST A LITTLE LATE YOU FOUND ME, YOU FOUND ME-E-E-E-E YOU NEVER LEFT ME NO MESSAGES YOU NEVER SEND ME NO LETTERS YOU GOT SOME KIND OF NERVE TAKING ALL I WA-A-A-A-NT LOST AND INSECURE YOU FOUND ME, YOU FOUND ME LYIN' ON THE FLOOR WHERE WERE YOU? WHERE WERE YOU? WHY'D YOU HAVE TO WAIT? YOU FOUND ME, YOU FOUND ME JUST A LITTLE LATE YOU FOUND ME, YOU FOUND ME-E-E-E-E-E YOU FOUND ME-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E YOU FOUND ME [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE .]
Daly: COMING UP LISTEN TO YOUR HEART Daly: MORE MEMORABLE PERFORMANCES LET ME FEEL THAT LOVE COME OVER ME Daly: AND ONE ARTIST LEAVES BLAKE SMITTEN.
IT WOULD BE STUPID FOR ME NOT TO ACKNOWLEDGE HOW BREATHTAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL YOU ARE, BLAZE.
[ LAUGHTER .]
THIS IS "THE VOICE" Daly: WELCOME BACK.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE .]
WITH "LISTEN TO YOUR HEART," HERE IS DEANNA JOHNSON.
I KNOW THERE'S SOMETHING IN THE WAKE OF YOUR SMILE I GET A NOTION FROM THE LOOK IN YOUR EYES YOU'VE BUILT A LOVE, BUT THAT LOVE FALLS APART YOUR LITTLE PIECE OF HEAVEN TURNS TO DARK LISTEN TO YOUR HEART WHEN HE'S CALLING FOR YOU LISTEN TO YOUR HEART THERE'S NOTHING ELSE YOU CAN DO I DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU'RE GOING AND I DON'T KNOW WHY LISTEN TO YOUR HEART BEFORE YOU TELL HIM GOODBYE AND THERE ARE VOICES THAT WANT TO BE HEARD SO MUCH TO MENTION, BUT YOU CAN'T FIND THE WORDS AND THE SCENT OF MAGIC, THE BEAUTY THAT'S BEEN WHEN LOVE WAS WILDER THAN THE WIND LISTEN TO YOUR HE-E-E-E-E-E-ART OH, LISTEN TO YOUR HEART BEFORE YOU TELL ME GOODBYE [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE .]
Daly: THAT IS DEANNA AND BLAZE.
ALL RIGHT, ADAM, WE'LL GIVE YOU OUR -- YOUR COACHES HERE A SECOND TO WEIGH IN.
BLAKE SHELTON, LET'S START WITH YOU.
JOHNSON AND JOHNSON.
GOD, I LOVE THAT.
I LOVE IT.
[ LAUGHTER .]
I KNOW THIS IS ABOUT THE VOICE, BUT I THINK IT WOULD BE STUPID FOR ME NOT TO ACKNOWLEDGE HOW BREATHTAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL YOU ARE, BLAZE.
[ LAUGHTER .]
YOU HAD A REALLY SOLID, GREAT PERFORMANCE.
YOUR VOICE BROKE THAT ONE TIME, BUT THAT'S ALL.
AND, DEANNA, I LOVE YOUR VOICE SO MUCH, BUT THERE WAS PITCH ISSUES.
I THINK IF I WAS JUST GOING WITH PERFORMANCE, I WOULD PROBABLY GIVE IT TO BLAZE.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE .]
CHRISTINA.
BLAZE, THERE WAS A LOT OF URGENCY.
I COULD TELL YOU WERE FEELING IT.
OVERALL, A REALLY STRONG PERFORMANCE.
DEANNA, I MEAN, YOU HAVE ONE OF THOSE SIGNATURE VOICES.
YOUR VIBRATO IS SO UNIQUE.
THAT DEFINITELY SETS YOU APART.
I DON'T KNOW.
IT'S A TOSS-UP HERE.
Daly: PHARRELL.
DEANNA, I REMEMBER WE ALL TURNED AROUND FOR YOU, AND IT'S THAT BEAUTIFUL TONE.
BUT WHEN YOU ALLOW THE VARIABLE OF NERVES TO COME IN, IT DISTRACTS.
YOU NEED TO PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE.
YEAH.
I DO BELIEVE IN YOU.
YOU SHOULD, TOO.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE .]
AND, BLAZE, YEAH, YOU HAD, LIKE, A RUB IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SONG, BUT, MAN, YOU WERE FEELING THE MOMENT, AND CLEARLY, EVERYBODY SEEN IT.
I THINK IF I HAD TO GIVE IT TO SOMEBODY, I WOULD GIVE IT TO BLAZE JUST BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE YOU'RE A LITTLE BIT MORE PREPARED FOR IT.
ALL RIGHT, ADAM.
YOU'VE HEARD YOUR FELLOW COACHES.
WHAT DO YOU THINK? BLAZE, YOUR LOW REGISTER IS PRETTY UNBEATABLE, AND I LOVE THAT ABOUT YOUR VOICE, AND I DIDN'T GET TO REALLY HEAR THA WITH THE STUFF WE'VE DONE UP TILL NOW, SO GREAT, GREAT JOB.
DEANNA, I THINK MUSIC IS YOUR LIFE, I THINK YOU SING CONSTANTLY, EXCEPT YOU DON'T SING AS WELL WHEN YOU'RE ON STAGE.
AND NOW WE'RE IN THE KNOCKOUT ROUNDS, AND THEN COMING UP NEXT, WE'RE GONNA BE LIVE.
YOU KNOW, YOU'RE RUNNING OUT OF REASONS NOT TO BELIEVE IN YOURSELF, AND THAT'S THE ONE OBSTACLE YOU HAVE TO OVERCOME TO BLOW EVERYBODY AWAY.
SHOULD I MOVE FORWARD WITH BLAZE? HE'S GONNA GO INTO WHATEVER HE IS GONNA TACKLE NEXT, AND HE'S GONNA DO A GREAT JOB.
THAT MAKES HIM ENTICING TO ME.
WHAT MAKES YOU ENTICING TO ME IS THE FAC THAT WE STILL ARE WAITING FOR YOU TO HAVE THAT BREAKTHROUGH.
WHO DO YOU PICK, ADAM? [ AUDIENCE SHOUTING .]
UM THE WINNER OF THIS KNOCKOUT IS DEANNA.
DEANNA MOVES ON TO THE LIVE PLAYOFFS, REPRESENTING OH, YOU DID GREAT.
TEAM ADAM.
Adam: THAT ONE REALLY HUR BECAUSE BLAZE DESERVED TO BE REWARDED FOR WHAT HE HAD DONE, BUT DEANNA -- THERE'S STILL SOME KERNEL OF GENIUS IN THAT GIRL.
IT'S TIME FOR YOU TO BELIEVE -- FOR YOU TO BELIEVE.
Deanna: I THOUGHT I WAS GOING HOME.
I WAS LIKE, "OH, MY NERVES DID IT AGAIN," BUT HE BELIEVES IN ME SO MUCH, AND IT JUST WARMS MY HEART.
ALL RIGHT, COACHES, LET ME REMIND YOU, BLAZE IS AVAILABLE TO STEAL.
BLAZE, WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO SAY TO ADAM? THREE YEARS AGO, I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW HOW I WAS GONNA BE HERE.
NOW HERE I AM TODAY, AND I'M SO THANKFUL AND GRATEFUL.
OH, MAN.
COME GIVE ME A HUG.
Daly: A BIG THANK YOU TO BLAZE JOHNSON.
Blake: YOU KNOW, AS MUCH AS I LOVE BLAZE, I DIDN'T STEAL BECAUSE I HAVE MY EYE ON SOMEBODY ELSE THAT I'M REALLY KEEPING MY FINGERS CROSSED THAT I GET A CHANCE TO WORK WITH.
YOU JUST CAN'T EVER BELIEVE ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE TRUTH, WHICH IS THAT YOU'RE SPECIAL AND YOU HAVE A SPECIAL VOICE.
OKAY.
I'LL WORK ON IT.
I'M NOT FINISHED WITH YOU.
[ LAUGHTER .]

BLAKE ADVANCED COUNTRY ARTIST COREY KENT WHITE, AND ADAM KEPT RETURNING POP SINGER DEANNA JOHNSON.
NOW LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT PHARRELL'S KNOCKOUT PAIRING.
HI.
I PAIRED HANNAH AND CAITLIN TOGETHER BECAUSE THEY'RE BOTH POWERHOUSES BUT I WANT TO SEE WHO'S GONNA GO BEYOND THE POWER TO MAKE PEOPLE FEEL.
Hannah: BEFORE "THE VOICE," I WAS GIGGING WHENEVER I COULD AND ALSO GOING TO COLLEGE.
I'M COMING TO HUG YOU.
I WANT TO HUG YOU.
FOR THE BLIND AUDITIONS, I TOOK THE FINAL SPOT ON BLAKE'S TEAM.
GO, HANNAH! FOR MY BATTLE, I KNEW THAT I HAD TO BRING EVERYTHING THAT I HAD.
RAPE, MURDER HANNAH CAME OUT HERE SWINGING HER PURSE LIKE A SOUTHERN CHURCH LADY.
YES.
YES.
YEAH, LISTEN.
[ LAUGHTER .]
SARAH MOVES ON TO THE KNOCKOUT ROUND! Hannah: ALTHOUGH IT WAS DISAPPOINTING TO LOSE THE BATTLE [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE .]
HANNAH, YOU ARE AFRAID OF NO ONE.
I PICK PHARRELL.
GETTING STOLEN TO TEAM PHARRELL, I FEEL LIKE I WON.
AND I'M HAPPY TO STILL BE HERE.
BRING ME A HIGHER LOVE FOR MY KNOCKOUT, I'M SINGING "HIGHER LOVE" BY STEVE WINWOOD.
ON A HIGHER LOVE IT'S MORE POPPY, BUT I THINK IT'S IMPORTAN FOR ME TO SHOW PHARRELL MY VERSATILITY AS AN ARTIST.
THERE'S AN ARC TO A SONG LIKE THERE'S AN ARC TO A MOVIE, BUT I DON'T THINK YOU HAVE TO GIVE TOO MUCH AWAY AS EARLY ON.
TRY AND KEEP IT A LITTLE MORE STRAIGHT.
YEAH.
SO, EVENTUALLY, YOU JUST GOT TO GET TO THE CLIMAX AND -- AND SOAR IT OUT.
TREAT YOUR VOICE LIKE A KITE, AND THE WIND IS THE SONG.
OOH! JUST TAKE IT THAT'S GOOD.
JUST GO.
THAT'S GOOD.
PHARRELL IS A FANTASTIC COACH.
HE'S LIKE A MONK.
HE'S REALLY WISE.
SO, WHEN YOU'RE PERFORMING, RIGHT, AND THEN THE STAND IS HERE YEAH.
MM-HMM.
THIS IS WHAT YOU CONSIDER TO BE YOUR SPACE.
OH, YEAH, I DID -- I DID NOT MOVE AROUND.
[ LAUGHS .]
I WANT YOU TO.
OKAY.
BUT IF WE SEE THAT YOU'RE, LIKE, COOPED UP, YOU'RE GONNA IMPRESS US WITH YOUR VOICE, BUT THAT'S WHERE YOUR PERSONALITY IS.
HER SONG CHOICE EVOKED A MORE FLAMBOYANT VERSION OF HERSELF.
BRING ME A HIGHER LOVE AND THAT'S WHO SHE IS.
SO NOW, THAT WAS A FIRE-, FIRE-, FIRE-BREATHING DRAGON.
[ LAUGHS .]
AND YOU KNOW WHAT? YOUR MOVES ARE DIFFERENT THAN ANYTHING I'VE EVER SEEN BEFORE.
[ LAUGHS .]
BUT YOUR VOICE AND YOUR SPIRI WARRANTS YOU TO MOVE LIKE THAT.
THAT'S YOUR THING.
WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR HANNAH ON THE DAY OF THE KNOCKOU IS FOR HER TO CONTINUE UTILIZING THE STAGE AS HER OWN SPACE AND MAKING THIS ROOM HER WORLD.
Caitlin: BEFORE "THE VOICE," I WAS WORKING AS A CUSTOMER-SERVICE REP.
IT'S IMPOSSIBLE OH, MAN.
OH, BABY, IT'S IMPOSSIBLE DURING THE BLIND AUDITIONS, I KIND OF BLACKED OU DURING ALL OF IT.
OH, BABY, IT'S IMPOSSIBLE I'M SO GLAD THAT I PICKED PHARRELL BECAUSE HE'S JUST FILLED WITH KNOWLEDGE.
REALLY SING THAT LINE OVER AND OVER AGAIN.
THE MUSCLE MEMORY WILL KICK IN, AND YOU WON'T EVER HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THAT AGAIN.
THE BATTLE ROUND WAS REALLY INTENSE.
CAITLIN! BUT I FELT LIKE I GREW A LOT, AND I'M EXCITED TO SEE WHAT'S TO COME.
WHAT SONG DID YOU PICK? I PICKED "WARRIOR" BY DEMI LOVATO.
I FEEL LIKE MY STRONG SUI IS BALLADS.
IT SHOWS A LOT OF RANGE.
YEAH.
AND, LYRICALLY, I CAN CONNECT WITH IT.
IT'S A GREAT THING TO WANT TO SING BALLADS BECAUSE YOU ALREADY HAVE THIS BUILT-IN CONNECTION SYNCHING INTO THE WORDS.
THIS SONG'S ABOUT OVERCOMING THINGS THAT GOT YOU DOWN IN THE PAST.
THIS IS A STORY THAT I HAVE NEVER TOLD I'VE BEEN TRYING AT SINGING FOR YEARS.
NOW THAT I'M HERE ON THIS PLATFORM OF "THE VOICE," I FEEL LIKE I'VE PUSHED THROUGH EVERYTHING AND THIS IS MY TIME.
IS MADE OF STEEL YOU CAN'T GET IN I'M A WARRIOR THERE WAS A FUNNY NOTE IN THAT -- THAT -- THAT WORD "CAN'T.
" MM-HMM.
YOUR VOICE IS CRAZY.
THANK YOU.
BUT WHEN YOU DOUBT, IT MAKES YOU HIT A NOTE MM-HMM.
THAT'S NOT AS ACCURATE AS IT COULD BE BECAUSE YOU'RE THINKING.
WHEN YOU FEEL YOURSELF BEING TENSE [BREATHES DEEPLY.]
JUST LET IT GO.
YEAH.
WHATEVER THE WORDS ARE, KIND OF MAKE THEM YOUR OWN AND JUST ENJOY IT.
YOU'VE GOT A GIFT THAT YOU ARE PRESENTING TO EVERYBODY.
SHE'S GOT A GREAT, DYNAMIC VOICE, BUT SHE HAS TO REALLY FEEL WHAT SHE'S SINGING.
IF SHE CAN DO THAT, SHE CAN TAKE ANYONE DOWN.
YOU'RE GOING, "HOW CAN I HOLD IT TOGETHER?" WELL, NOW TRY IT THIS WAY -- "HOW CAN I LET LOOSE?" GOT IT.
Caitlin: HANNAH IS A GREAT PERFORMER, SO IT'S SUPER IMPORTANT TO JUST GO FOR IT, NOT BE IN MY HEAD.
IS MADE OF STEEL YOU CAN'T GET IN I'M A WARRIOR THAT "CAN'T" WAS AMAZING.
'CAUSE I WASN'T THINKING ABOUT IT.
[ CHUCKLES .]
THERE'S A LOT IN THERE, AND IT'S UP TO HER HOW MUCH WE SEE.
KEEP PULLING IT OUT.
I'M GONNA CHOOSE THE WINNER BASED ON WHO CAN BE THEMSELVES THE MOST.
WITH "HIGHER LOVE," HERE IS HANNAH KIRBY.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE .]
THINK ABOUT IT THERE MUST BE HIGHER LOVE DOWN IN THE HEART OR HIDDEN IN THE STARS ABOVE WITHOUT IT LIFE IS WASTED TIME LOOK INSIDE YOUR HEART, I'LL LOOK INSIDE MINE THINGS LOOK SO BAD EVERYWHERE IN THIS WHOLE WORLD, WHAT IS FAIR? WE WALK BLIND AND WE TRY TO SEE FALLING BEHIND IN WHAT COULD BE OHHHHHH BRING ME A HIGHER LOVE BRING ME A HIGHER LOVE OHHHHHHH BRING ME A HIGHER LOVE I COULD RISE ABOVE ON A HIGHER LOVE I WILL WAIT FOR IT I'M NOT TOO LATE FOR IT LET ME FEEL THAT LOVE COME OVER ME LET ME FEEL HOW STRONG IT COULD BE-E-E-E-E BRING ME A HIGHER LOVE BRING ME A HIGHER LOVE OHHHHHHH BRING ME A HIGHER LOVE WHERE'S THAT HIGHER LOVE I KEEP THINKING OF? WOW.

WHOO! CRAZY.
Daly: COMING UP, WITH ONLY TWO STEALS LEFT THAT WAS A REALLY POWERFUL PERFORMANCE.
I JUST DON'T KNOW WHO I WOULD PICK.
BLAKE AND CHRISTINA HAVE PHARRELL FEELING THE PRESSURE.
YOU BOTH ARE MY FAVORITE.
THERE'S THE STEAL RIGHT THERE! THIS IS "THE VOICE" Daly: WELCOME BACK TO THE KNOCKOUT ROUNDS.
SINGING "WARRIOR," HERE IS CAITLIN CAPORALE.
THIS IS A STORY THAT I HAVE NEVER TOLD I'VE GOTTA GET THIS OFF MY CHEST TO LET IT GO I NEED TO TAKE BACK THE LIGHT INSIDE YOU STOLE YOU'RE A CRIMINAL AND YOU STEAL LIKE YOU'RE A PRO 'CAUSE ALL THE PAIN AND THE TRUTH I WEAR LIKE A BATTLE WOUND SO ASHAMED, SO CONFUSED I'M NOT BROKEN OR BRUISED 'CAUSE NOW I'M A WARRIOR NOW I'VE GOT THICKER SKIN I'M A WARRIOR I'M STRONGER THAN I'VE EVER BEEN AND MY ARMOR IS MADE OF STEEL YOU CAN'T GET IN I'M A WARRIOR AND YOU CAN NEVER HURT ME AND MY ARMOR IS MADE OF STEEL YOU CAN'T GET IN I'M A WARRIOR AND YOU CAN NEVER HURT ME AGAIN NO YEAH, YEAH, YEAH AND YOU CAN NEVER HURT ME AGAIN [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE .]
Daly: GIVE IT UP! CAITLIN AND HANNAH! WHOO! ALL RIGHT, COACH PHARRELL, YOU'VE GOT A TOUGH DECISION COMING UP HERE IN A MINUTE.
LET'S GET SOME THOUGHTS.
ADAM.
CAITLIN, YOU'RE AMAZING.
HANNAH, YOU'RE AMAZING BUT SUPER DIFFERENT.
AND I THINK THAT IT SUCKS FOR HIM 'CAUSE, OF COURSE, HE'S GONNA HAVE TO PICK ONE OF YOU GUYS, WHICH I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE.
GOOD LUCK WITH THAT ONE, BUDDY.
[ LAUGHTER .]
I THINK THAT MY GUT WOULD TELL ME -- I THINK I'D GO WITH HANNAH.
LET'S GO OVER TO HANNAH'S FORMER COACH, BLAKE SHELTON.
Blake: CAITLIN, I CAN'T FIND ONE THING WRONG WITH YOUR PERFORMANCE AT ALL.
I MEAN, YOU DEMONSTRATED A LITTLE MORE RANGE, AS FAR AS, YOU KNOW, SHOWING DIFFERENT THINGS THAT YOU'RE CAPABLE OF DOING AS A SINGER.
HANNAH GETS OUT HERE, AND IT'S SO FUN TO WATCH HER PERFORM BECAUSE IT'S ALMOST LIKE SOMETHING JUST TAKES OVER HER BODY WHEN SHE STARTS SINGING, AND, LIKE, SHE CAN'T EVEN CONTROL HERSELF.
IT'S LIKE THAT SCENE IN "BEETLEJUICE," YOU KNOW, WHEN THEY ALL GET POSSESSED.
[ LAUGHTER .]
IT'S SO AWESOME BECAUSE WHAT'S HAPPENING IS PERFECT SINGING IS -- IS COMING OUT OF YOU.
THANK YOU.
I-I'M NOT GONNA SAY WHO I WOULD PICK HERE BECAUSE I JUST DON'T KNOW.
THANK YOU, BLAKE.
CHRISTINA.
THAT WAS A REALLY POWERFUL PERFORMANCE, CAITLIN.
THAT SONG WAS REALLY SPECIAL.
I'M SO HAPPY YOU CHOSE IT.
YOU'RE ONE OF THE ONES MY TEAM HAS TO LOOK OUT FOR, FOR SURE.
AND THEN, HANNAH, HERE YOU COME, EMBODYING THIS WHOLE DIFFERENT PERSONA.
YOU KNOW, YOU'RE ALL SWEET-LOOKING AND -- AND LOVELY, AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, THIS POWER SORT OF, LIKE, COMES OVER YOU, AND YOU HAVE A WHOLE PRESENCE ABOUT YOU THAT I FIND SO ENTERTAINING.
PHARRELL, WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO? WELL, WE HAVE ONE PERSON THAT GOES INWARD -- CAITLIN.
YOU CONCENTRATE ON THE NOTE AND WHAT THAT FEELS LIKE TO YOU, AND THEN YOU HAVE SOMEBODY THAT KIND OF LIVES ON THE OUTSIDE.
YOU JUST LET ALL OF YOUR FEELINGS OUT.
SO, I-IT MAKES IT VERY TOUGH 'CAUSE YOU HAVE TWO DIFFERENT KINDS OF SINGERS.
PHARRELL, WHO'S THE WINNER OF THIS KNOCKOUT? YOU BOTH ARE MY FAVORITES.
AND I FEEL REALLY GOOD ABOUT WHAT YOU'VE DONE, SO THE WINNER OF THIS KNOCKOUT ROUND IS CAITLIN.
CAITLIN'S GONNA MOVE ON, REPRESENTING PHARRELL IN THE LIVE PLAYOFFS! Pharrell: I CHOSE CAITLIN BECAUSE SHE WAS CONSISTENT WITH WHO SHE IS AND I FELT LIKE THERE'S DEFINITELY MORE WORK WE CAN DO TOGETHER.
Caitlin: I AM SO READY TO GO TO LIVE PLAYOFFS.
THIS IS WHAT I DREAMED OF.
I'VE BEEN WATCHING THIS SHOW SINCE SEASON ONE.
I'M SO HAPPY.
I'M SO HAPPY.
OH, MY GOD, THAT WAS COACHES, LET ME REMIND YOU, HANNAH IS AVAILABLE TO STEAL.
HANNAH, ANYTHING YOU WANT TO SAY TO YOUR COACH, PHARRELL? THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR STEALING ME.
I REALLY ENJOYED GETTING TO WORK WITH YOU, AND I'M JUST -- LISTEN, LIKE YOUR DANCE MOVES, EVERYTHING THAT YOU DO, PEOPLE BELIEVE IT.
YES, THEY DID.
Daly: THERE'S THE STEAL RIGHT THERE! [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE .]
IT'S A HOMECOMING FOR HANNAH! WHOO! THANK YOU! I LOVE YOU.
Daly: THERE'S SOME SPORTSMANSHIP RIGHT THERE.
BLAKE, YOU HAD HANNAH, YOU LET HER SLIP THROUGH YOUR FINGERS, AND NOW SHE'S RIGHT BACK HOME.
IN REHEARSAL, I KNEW I HAD REALLY SCREWED UP.
I NEVER DREAMED I'D GET THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE YOU BACK WHERE YOU BELONG.
CONGRATULATIONS.
WE'LL SEE YOU IN THE LIVE PLAYOFFS.
GO SAY HI TO YOUR NEW OLD COACH.
YES! [ LAUGHS .]
Hannah: I'M ECSTATIC.
I FEEL LIKE I GOT THE BEST OF TWO AMAZING WORLDS.
I GOT TO WORK WITH PHARRELL, AND I LOVE TEAM BLAKE.
HANNAH! THE LIVES ON "THE VOICE.
" I KNOW.
WHOO! WE CAN DO THIS.
YEAH, THIS IS IT.
WORK ALL NIGHT, AND I DRINK A-RUM [ CHUCKLES .]
A-RUM [ LAUGHTER .]
DAY-O ME SAY DAY, ME SAY DAY, ME SAY DAY, ME SAY DAY, ME SAY DAY-O
