For the first time ever, the remaining contestants will perform songs selected by the "Select-a-Song" feature on The Voice App. The last 11 singers will get through the live performances to make their way to the live eliminations the following episode.

These are the top 11 performers, picked by the audience, singing songs picked by the audience. Coaches Miley, Blake, Jennifer, and Adam have the hardest decisions yet, and these live performances will determine who stays and who goes.

 

Janice Freeman ("Shine") -- Team Miley

This is an unusual choice for a "soul" singer, but Miley is convinced that this song (selected by the fans) will keep Janice in her "own lane." The unique song choices keep Janice out of a rut, and really stretch her capabilities. Her futuristic styling doesn't detract from her performance, and she does it right. She rocks this song in her very Janice-y way, even though she had no say in it's selection. The coaches are, once again, blown away by her performance. She brings Miley to tears, and she was on her feet for Janice the whole time.

Red Marlow ("The Dance") -- Team Blake

Red's fans picked one of the most iconic country ballads, made famous by Garth Brooks. Red has been open about his devotion to his dad, and even dedicated his last performance to his father. This week, his dad took his first plane ride to see Red perform, and he is not disappointed. I won't say Red sounds better than Garth Brooks, but he certainly comes a close second. Jennifer remarks on his ability to silence the room, and its just another reminder of the power of his stage presence. His coach, Blake, echoes her sentiments, and calls him a "great storyteller" that sings with "pure, simple, honesty."

Shi'Ann Jones ("Listen") -- Team Jennifer

The fans pick an ambitious song for the 15 year old. Beyonce sang a version of this song in the film Dreamgirls, and it shows how much confidence audiences have in Shi'Ann. It's a complicated song, but coach Jennifer knows she can do it, but only if Shi'Ann believes in herself. Her performance begins on the subdued side, but as soon as she comes to her feet, the audience is hers, and she starts to come into her own. All four coaches are on their feet, but it's her dad's enthusiasm that is the most moving moment of her performance.

Adam Cunningham ("American Girl") -- Team Adam

Adam is the fans' Instant Save from the Top 12, and he takes on a classic rock song from Tom Petty. He has the gravel in his voice to make this song completely different, but amazing, nonetheless. He adds a bluegrass vibe to it, and it sounds incredible. This guy knows how to work a stage, and a song, for that matter. Coaches notice his energy, but also the power of the vocals. They predict he's worked himself out of the bottom two, and I'll agree. He doesn't deserve to be anywhere near the bottom.


Brooke Simpson ("What About Us") -- Team Miley

The fans pick a song for Brooke that she and Miley have been thinking about for a while. Brooke is encouraged because she feels like the fans really get her. Miley adds in drums and offers a Native element, and Brooke is happy to work a piece of her heritage into her performance. As busy as the stage is while Brooke sings, she still commands the audience's attention. She has a distinct presence on the stage, and she still delivers a powerful version of the Pink song. Miley advocates for Brooke to the audience, and you can tell the coach is genuinely a fan of the singer.

 

Davon Fleming ("I Have Nothing") -- Team Jennifer

Fans chose a Whitney Houston cover for this Baltimore singer, and it's a big song to take on. As loyal as fans are to Whitney, Davon has some big shoes to fill. His performance is emotional and affecting, and he is probably amassing some fans of his own after this. Davon has been a coach-fave for the duration of the competition, but this performance cements his place as a top entertainer. In fact, Adam has to interject to call it a "miracle."

 

Ashland Craft ("Chicken Fried") -- Team Miley

 

After hearing her and Miley play around with this tune last week, fans picked the country hit for Ashland. She's happy with it, and finds it relatable. Her styling reflects her country roots, and Miley loves the bedazzled fringe. The coach is on her feet and couldn't look prouder of the singer. Adam scolds the audience for their terrible clapping, but commends Ashland on her flawless performance.

 

Addison Agen ("A Case of You") -- Team Adam

Joni Mitchell is singer/songwriter power house, and taking on a song of hers is quite the undertaking. Adam thinks the song is made for her, and she even acknowledges how ambitious it is. One thing about Addison: when she sings, you're forced to stop and watch. You can't take your eyes or ears off of her, and I have a feeling she moved a lot of viewers to tears with her cover of this folksy classic. Jennifer gushes about her performance, and Adam is equally complimentary. He says what everyone is thinking, and recognizes how moving she is.

Keisha Renee ("It Matters to Me") -- Team Blake

Keisha's fan are rooting for her to be the crossover artist we all need. They picked a Faith Hill song for her, and Keisha puts her own spin on it, (almost) making us forget the original. Keisha acknowledges how much her fans mean to her, and she vows to deliver a performance just for them.She doesn't disappoint. Miley offers her the ultimate support by promising to go home and download her single, and Blake reassures her that she delivers a "solid, solid, country performance."

Noah Mac ("Electric Love") -- Team Jennifer

Jennifer is definitely enthused by the fans' pick for Noah. She believes it shows they are really connecting to him as an artist. He shows up to rehearsals with his own ideas about arrangement, and his performance is a show-stopper. Even after all these weeks, coaches still find his voice surprising, and he remains sweet and humble. He's also super cute and "dreamy" as Adam calls it. Jennifer has a lot of confidence in him, and she's sure he's going to the top of the charts.

Chloe Kohanski ("Total Eclipse of the Heart") -- Team Blake

 

This song may have been conceived just for Chloe. It showcases her range and her unique craft, and fans have been tweeting it at her since the blind auditions. She sings the Bonnie Tyler classic better than anything she's attempted this season, and it sounds like velvet coming out of her. She is unbelievable, and I'm not the only one with this opinion. The coaches are fans of hers, and Blake says she set the bar for the entire competition.
