I wish they wouldn't short singers their time. The montage where we just saw the winner not fair to the singers.

Glad to see Adam steal Dennis both were good.

Still; have no favorites yet.

  'The Voice' Recap: The Battle Rounds Get Intense as Adam Steals a Singer
Tuesday, October 17, 2017

There were plenty of steals during the first night of the Battle Rounds of The Voice, and at the end of the episode they promised the "most unexpected steal of the season," so it should make this episode very interesting, as if the Battles aren't exciting enough with Kelly Rowland, Joe Jonas, Rascal Flatts and Billy Ray Cyrus as advisors.

Davon Fleming vs. Maharasyi ("I'm Your Baby Tonight")

Coach Jennifer Hudson's pairing trips over themselves walking in the door once they see Kelly. Jennifer paired them up because they're both soulful artists and will complement each other. Kelly admits that she auditioned with this song for Destiny's Child and chose the song because it will be kind of like going home for Davon. In fact, he owns the song so much that he's not leaving room for Maharasyi. Kelly loves that she can go to all these places with her voice in the song, though.

In their battle, Davon sings the song just as smoothly as he was expected to, and Maharasyi does her best to carve out her own space in the song. What Miley Cyrus loved most was the entertainment of it all. Adam Levine would have to choose Davon because "he's a force of nature." Blake Shelton thinks they're both worthy of being four-chair turns in that performance. Jennifer tells Maharasyi she sounded amazing and believes Davon's love for Whitney Houston shone through.

Result: Davon wins, and Maharasyi goes home.

Brandon Showell vs. Hannah Mrozak ("Cold Water")

Adam thinks both Brandon and Hannah can do it all. Adam is taking this pop song and "twisting it on its end" to give the audience something different. Joe thinks Hannah is a fantastic singer and thinks Brandon's runs are incredible, wanting to steal some of his voice for himself.

Hannah starts off the song a little shaky but then finds her groove with it, while Brandon finds his right away. Blake explains that every time he thought one of them was pulling ahead, the other one would catch up, but he'd probably go with Hannah. Jennifer thinks it seemed like a perfect duet but, if she has to choose, would go with Brandon. Miley agrees with Blake that they're both even. Adam also finds them dead even.

Result: Hannah wins, and Brandon goes home.



Montage: Dave vs. Dylan, Esera vs. Rebecca, Chloe vs. Ilianna

 

Dave Crosby and Dylan Gerard perform "Doctor My Eyes," with Dylan winning the battle.

Esera Tuaolo and Rebecca Brunner battle with "This I Promise You," and Esera advances.

 Chloe Kohanski and Ilianna Viramontes cover "I Am Woman," with Chloe being chosen.



Dennis Drummond vs. Mitchell Lee ("Mr. Jones")

Blake pairs these two because they're Nashville guys but more rock, and gives them this Counting Crows song because it fits each of their styles. They're told by Rascal Flatts they should try to harmonize a little more with the song, but Dennis needs to figure out how to sing lead and not just let Mitchell take it, and he takes the advice and runs with it, whereas Mitchell is getting a little too confident.

During their battle, they both give it everything they've got, with two definite lead singers. Jennifer tells them they're captivating and wants to go to their concert whether they're together or not but would go with Mitchell. Miley thinks Dennis is fun to watch with his footwork but would still go with Mitchell. Adam thinks Mitchell is more in Blake's wheelhouse, but Dennis is a wild card. Blake says this is the closest battle he has this season.

Result: Mitchell wins, with Adam stealing Dennis.

While it's exciting for Adam to steal Dennis, it's not "unexpected." All of the coaches remark on how great he is and he's definitely in Adam's wheelhouse, so it doesn't seem too "unexpected."
