Here we go.
I should mention as the top ten enter center stage it was an amazing night last night, monumental, "the voice" history was made.
Seven out of the top ten songs, seven out of the top ten occupied by the artists on the center stage last night.
Incredible feat.
Let's see if it was enough to save some of your favorites in a second.
A question to Amy, so far, team Adam as remained intact through the live show.
Tell us what it is like off camera for you three and what that friendship means to you.
I don't think people know how much fun we have.
But we have something special in common.
And that is we're just so thankful to God above all else that he put us here.
And we know that no matter what happens that he's got a plan and purpose for all of our lives.
I think that makes us just connect in a way that surpasses all else.
So it's just Very good, thank you, Amy.
A quick question for Zack.
We have seen you can be a heart breaker and stage performer.
If you move on to the semifinals what do you want to prove to America? I have shown to America and to the judges that I like to have fun on stage and move around and take my hips but there's more to that to me.
And I like to sing music.
If I get to move on, to give a solid vocal performance.
Very good, thank you artists.
In my hands are the names of the first two artists who are safe and will be moving on to the semifinals.
Here we go.
America saved From team Blake Emily Ann Roberts is the first to make it to the semifinals on "the voice" this season.
That a girl.
That a girl.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
America also saved From team Adam Jordan Smith.
Emily Anne and Jordan Smith are the first two safe moving on to the top nine.
The rest of the artists on stage are still at risk of being eliminated tonight.
When we come back, more of your results plus, global superstar sia performs! And you'll get to instantly save one artist.
Welcome back.
Live eliminations happening on "the voice.
" Let's check in with the coaches.
Blake, you have a big announcement of someone coming in next week for the semifinals.
Tell me about that.
It's not often that I'm super jealous of the contestants on the show.
But I'm super jealous next week but they will be mentored by a young lady by the name of Dolly parton.
Dolly is going to mentor the nine remaining contestants and she's also going to perform on the show.
This is a big deal.
It's a huge deal.
We get Dolly here.
I'm freaking out.
Next week and you're freaking out.
Do you know Dolly well? No, nobody does.
Is she real? She's really coming here.
We're going the find out next week.
Pharrell, you are down to one artist.
One artist is going home tonight.
What is that pressure like for you to keep madi in the show? I don't know if it's pressure so much as it is just really the talent that the artist has has the rapport they have with the American public and I'm super confident in madi's talent Her gift, rather and her rapport with the public.
Gwen, you had three powerful performances from your team last night, what is the one thing you try to instill in your team each week? I feel like I just want them to share their story of who they are and get really personal and get people to know them.
Being unique is what is the most important thing.
I just try to share that with them.
- Just be you.
- Adam, congratulations on Jordan moving on.
You are a veteran coach.
It's your ninth season.
What does it take for an artist to make it to the semifinals? If I knew that answer it would be easier to be a coach.
We have done a lot on this show seasons.
It's a balance of learning from the nine seasons and pushing yourself to be better.
Like Blake and I you have to do things to keep it fresh for the people on your team but stay inspired and keep your team inspired and chemothem from being nervous.
There is about a million things.
But that is three of them.
Let's see if your hard work paid off this week.
Let's bring out the remaining artists as the live eliminations continue here on "the voice.
" Welcome back, everybody.
Quick question to madi.
We were talking to your coach pharrell.
You are his last remaining artist.
What is the one thing that he has taught you that people at home don't know about? Something that pharrell has w is just to be open in everything that you do and accept all kinds of criticism and helpful words because that's how you grow.
And I people that's why I've grown so much on this show because I've become more open and, yeah Thank you, madi.
Very cool.
Let's talk to Barrett, we saw last night how connected you are with your students.
What is the one lesson you learned here that you want to pass on to them? I think we as adult sometimes fail our youth in that we make them think they have to have a distinct plan for their life.
I learned in this process and I hope they see too, that it's okay to sometimes run into the unknown and not be afraid of what that is especially if you believe in yourself.
That what's I'm doing here.
Sometimes the plan can be renegotiated and it works out well.
Well said, thank you, Barrett.
I have the names of the next two artists who are safe and will be moving on to the semifinals.
Let's go.
America saved From team Gwen Jeffery Austin, you're moving on to the semifinals.
Congratulations.
Three coaches now being represented in the semifinals.
America also saved From team Blake Barrett baber! Congratulations.
Love you.
And I got your name right.
Let's go.

Jeffery Austin and Barrett baber moving on tonight.
The rest of the artists are at risk of going home tonight.
When we come back we get more welcome back to the live eliminations.
Remember, every live show song you download on iTunes from now through December 14th, could help your favorite artist win it all.
Let's get to more results.
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome back to the stage our six remaining artists.
Tough elimination night.
Our friend sia waiting in the wings to perform in a little bit.
A quick question for Braden.
What would you like to say to your friends and family who are pulling for you tonight? It's tough.
I mean, I just want to thank everybody for supporting me, especially anybody who has gone to such great lengths to help me out here.
If you told me I would be here a year ago, I would have told you you were crazy.
I thought it was a waste of gas money to go to the auditions.
The stuff I learned from Gwen I'm going to take with me the rest of my life.
Thank you, friend.
Quick question for shelby.
It was an emotional moment last night.
You sang is a song in memory of your late grandfather.
What did it mean that moment for you? Last night I had a moment where on the show I haven't had a moment to emotionally connect with a performance and a song.
And last night I was able to open up and let my raw emotion pour out.
I didn't want everything to be crazy.
I wanted it to be about the lyrics of the song and for it to be just an emotional performance and I feel I accomplished that.
You certainly did.
Thank you.
It's time to announce two more saved by America's votes.
The remaining four will still be at risk of elimination.
Here with the names.
And here we go.
America saved Madi Davis.

" But before we go to break, something big is happening on nbc.
Four artists remain at risk of going home.
Before we get to more results, she's a 5-time grammy-nominated singer/songwriter and a great friend of ours with an incredible voice.
Performing her new single "alive," ladies and gentlemen, please give it up for sia.
I was born in a thunderstorm I grew up overnight I played alone I'm playing on my own I survived I wanted everything I never had where the wind don't change and nothing in the ground can ever grow no hope, just lies and you're taught to cry into your pillow but I survived I'm still breathing I'm still breathing I'm still breathing I'm still breathing I'm alive I'm alive I'm alive I'm alive I found solace in the strangest place way in the back of my mind I saw my life in a stranger's face and it was mine I had a one way ticket to a place where all the demons go where the wind don't change and nothing in the ground can ever grow no hope, just lies and you're taught to cry into your pillow but I survived I'm still breathing I'm still breathing I'm still breathing I'm still breathing I'm alive I'm alive I'm alive I'm alive I had made every single mistake that you could ever possibly make I took and I took and I took what you gave but you never noticed that I was in pain I knew what I wanted I went in and got it did all the things that you said that I wouldn't I told you that I would never be forgotten and all in spite of you and I'm still breathing I'm still breathing I'm still breathing I'm still breathing I'm alive you took it out but I'm still breathing you took it out but I'm still breathing I'm alive you took it out but I'm still breathing you took it out but I'm still breathing I'm alive you took it out but I'm still breathing you took it out but I'm still breathing I'm alive I'm alive I'm alive I'm alive I'm alive well, I mean that is just a clinic, the coaches are on their feet.
Give it up for sia, everybody.
Great having you back, young lady, thank you so much.
You look lovely.
Thank you so much.
Someone's going to come and get you.
Thank you.
Let's bring out our four remaining artists.
Eliminations continue.
Wow, what a voice.
All right, let's continue with the madness tonight.
Quick question, Corinne, you have been instantly saved by America two weeks in a row.
That has to be grueling for you.
What have you learned about yourself? I have learned a lot about myself this entire competition but a lot that I have gained in this competition is confidence.
And being saved twice shows how many people love and support me and see the message I want to get out to the world.
And the main thing I learned about myself is I'm a lot m fearless than I thought I was.
And there's a lot more fight in - me.
- Thank you, good luck tonight.
Two more will be saved by your votes, the other two will perform tonight.
Here we go.
America saved Zach seabaugh from team Blake.
A team sweep for team Blake next week in the top nine.
Good job.
Congratulations to Zach and coach Blake Shelton.
America also saved Shelby brown from team Adam moves on.
Adam's full team represented next week.
Pharrell has his only artist there.
A tough remaining moment in the show for team Gwen.
When we come back, both Corinne and Braden from team Gwen will perform the instant save songs th all right.
It's going down.
Welcome back.
Elimination on "the voice.
" Korin bukowski and Braiden sunshine are going to perform songs they picked to prove to you why they should stick around to the semifinals.
Singing "try" from team Gwen, please welcome korin bukowski.
Put your make up on get your nails done curl your hair run the extra mile keep it slim so they like you do you like you get your sexy on don't be shy, girl do you like you do you like you wait a second why so they like you do you like you you don't have to try so hard you don't have to give it all away you just have to get up get up, get up, get up you don't have to change a single thing you don't have to try try, try, try you don't have to try try, try, try you don't have to try try, try, try you don't have to try try, try, try you don't have to try you don't have to try try, try, try you don't have to try try, try, try you don't have to try try, try, try you don't have to try take your make up off let your hair down take a breath look into the mirror at yourself do you like you 'cause I like you you don't have to try that is korin bukowski in a familiar spot here third week in a row, singing to stick around.
You all right? You all right? Well a little trouble with the lyrics but you had a minute and a half to prove who you are as an artist.
Some people would have run off the stage.
What did you think, Blake Shelton? There is not of the four of us sitting here, not one of us had a that's happened to all of us, not one of us are free of something like that happening to us on stage.
And the pressure the pressure that you continue to feel week after week, you know, it's I hate that you're always in this Twitter save but the one thing you have proven up to this point is you deserve to be in this competition.
Are we going to have to forget the lyrics some times? Absolutely, I will not be surprised to see you saved once again this week because of what you have already laid out there and your ground work being in this competition so far.
C pharrell? Korin, I agree with something that Blake and Carson said, that has totally happened to all of us, number one, and number two, this is the time for America to see who you are and you got knocked down and you got right back up.
So listen, you hold you head up high because America, they saw who you are, they see who you are and they're with you rd.
You got knocked down twice, by the way, smile it off, sang it off, got back in the ring and fought.
There were two spots where she had trouble with the lyrics.
Even in the last three seconds of the song, she still is sitting out here trying to sell that voice to America who has an opportunity to instantly save her for a third time.
What did you see in that performance? This is the situation, that girl right there is deep.
Okay, the reason she had that moment right there is because she feels and she's real.
She's honest.
So if you're a human being, if you're a human being and that deep and that tapped into yourself, that's going to happen.
And she has really come out of her shell.
She is unbelievable.
She deserves to be here.
I'm so proud of you.
I don't care about that.
- You are so awesome.
- Another hand for korin bukowski.
Thank you korin we'll find out soon enough.
Appreciate it.
One more performance to go and then after that we're going to open up the instant save window.
Now singing "harder to breathe" for his last chance to remain in this competition, also from team Gwen, please welcome Braiden sunshine.
How dare you say that my behavior's unacceptable so condescending unnecessarily critical I have the tendency of getting very physical so watch your step 'cause if I do you'll need a miracle you drain me dry and make me wonder why I'm even here this double vision I was seeing is finally clear you want to stay but you know very well I want you gone not even fit to tread the ground that I am walking on when it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love you'll understand what I mean when I say there's no way we're gonna give up and like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe does it kill, does it burn is it painful to learn that it's me that has all the control does it thrill, does it sting when you feel what I bring and you wish that you had me to hold when it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love you'll understand what I mean when I say there's no way we're gonna give up and like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe 3 f2 sunshine also representing team Gwen singing to stick around in the instant save.
Hard not to go to Adam to get some thoughts.
Your song, buddy.
Fantastic.
You have the best case ever.
Hey, man, that's a that's a back against the wall song.
And this is the moment it should be used for.
Man, you're awesome.
I have loved you from the beginning.
And I love to see you stay on the show, bro.
Awesome job.
Let's go to your coach.
Gwen? I'm amazed but you and your confidence and your openness.

You are getting looser and more tapped in.
Iva - I have been honored to know you.
- A big hand for Braiden sunshine.
Let's bring back korin bukowski.
Both members of team Gwen in the hot seat tonight.
The power of live television certainly will be on full display right now.
Here we go.

Let take out the graphic.
And korin this is the third time you have been in this position.
If this is the night you leave what do you want to say to Gwen? There is so much.
Thank you so much for everything.
You have really made me jump out of my cocoon and I'm thankful for you and my fans and followers and for God for putting me on this amazing journey.
I feel comforted now.
Thank you, korin.
And Braiden, what do you want to say to your coach who supported you throughout this entire process? You turned around for a 15-year-old.
I never expected that.
I never did.
Thank you so much for that.
I'm just just that validation, just that alone gave me so much more confidence.
And there's nothing I can do to repay you for that.
You've given me so much more than I could have ever imagine in this period of time just thank you.
And if I go home thank you.
Unfortunately, you will be losing somebody tonight.
You have two incredible artists and by what they're saying two incredible people.
I know it's especially tough for you.
But final words potentially to korin.
It's impossible to pull it together right now.
It's intense having two of my babies against each other.
But korin, you know, you are just just knowing you has been like, equally, inspiring for me.
You know, and I feel like I said this before, we are very similar.
We have so much we're on the same journey together.
And it's weird because I just connect with you so much.
And I'm so proud of you and I just think it doesn't matter.
Outside of this, like look at what we've all got already.
- This is just a show.
- Thank you, Gwen and quickly words for Braiden, please.
You, you're 15.
You have your whole life ahead of you.
You will continue growing and growing and growing.
You are special.
Your personality alone is very special.
Here we go, the instant save window has closed and the time has come.
One of you is instantly saved and the other unfortunately leaves "the voice" tonight.
America instantly saved Braiden sunshine, you are moving on! As the youngest in this competition, put your hands together for korin bukowski and we'll see you live for the semifinals next Monday night here on nbc.
