Re: [BigBrother_Survivor] The Voice season 15 LIVE Finals continue tonight

 

I'm very happy with who made the final 4! Was a little surprised that one coach has 2 in the finals, so the odds are in their favor!

  Darn I won't be here for the finals But I
would like to see Sarah Grace in the finals. Because I feel
Adam abandoned his other singer I kind of hope Reagan is out
. I like her but I did not like what Adam did.Not sure about Blake's people, this
year.  maybe Kirk Jay stays and Chris out usually I am really stuck on one or 2
but this year no one really has stood out for me and
especially not on Blakes team which is weird  as he is
my favorite coach Well anyway  I will miss it
tonite Is there one I really don't want to win? No not
really

Sarah
Grace – Team Kelly Clarkson – Sign of the Times
by Harry Styles – Reigning winner Brynn Cartelli had a
showcase last week and Kelly took her team along. Brynn is
also on hand to help mentor. "This song just speaks to
me," says Sarah. Kelly warns that this week, the
contestants are "on the chopping block." Kelly is
looking for more drama, "You need a moment," she says.
The singer is sitting at a sparkly purple grand piano. I
love the dusky tone of Sarah's voice. She doesn't employ
a ton of tricks when she sings, but her subtle phrasing is
effective. At the bridge she grabs the mic and takes the
stage. She hits a big long note and sings with urgency.
Thing is, she's not the big tricksy singer like some of
the others, and that puts her at a disadvantage. Jennifer is
a fan of both her bravery and talent. "I love how you
commanded the entire room." Kelly says, "You are such a
musician at this age…your subtleties are my favorite parts
of your voice." I agree with Kelly.

Reagan
Strange and Kennedy Holmes – Happy/Tightrope
mashup – The two are going on tour together. They're
calling it "The Presidents Tour." Get it? Apparently
they're good friends.  Kennedy did most of the heavy
lifting on the melody while Reagan trilled mostly
tunelessly. 
MaKenzie
Thomas – Team Jennifer Hudson – Vision of
Love by Mariah Carey – Jennifer took her team to church.
Literally.. Jennifer and her team practiced in a church (The
First Baptist Church of Los Angeles). While the song was
Jennifer's idea,  MaKenzie believes the soulful,
gospel-tinged song is a good representation of who she is as
an artist. Jennifer suggests she soften it up, but also add
some gospel grace notes. Jennifer says if she had come
before Makenzie, she would be inspired.  MaKenzie could
dial back the runs a bit. But yeah, she's hitting those
high notes. Ooh. Though. Performing second is a little
dangerous. Maybe her duet is coming late in the show. 
She does the Whitney/Mariah/Celine deal so well. But she
rarely takes the performance beyond tribute. Mariah sang it
better, right? Ohh. She gets fireworks behind the piano!
"I can't stand it, you are so good!" gushes 
Kelly, "This show is called the Voice, and that is what
this show is all about." Blake says, "That was one of
the best performances that I've seen." He admired the
way she worked the microphone. Actually, she pulled it away
at the wrong time… "You are like a coach's dream,"
says Jennifer. "It's bananas! I got to give you all the
credit."
Kirk
Jay and Chevel Shepherd – She's Country/Country
Must Be Country Wide – Kirk is going to bust out his dance
moves, Chevel will teach him how to yodel. Well, both of
these songs, mediocre bro country, are beneath Kirk and
Chevel. Chevel in particular. It's doing neither of them
any favors at all. Both are outside of their comfort zones.
For Kirk, his wheelhouse is the tender ballad, and Chevel,
old school storytelling. This duet had potential to be so
much better. 
Kymberli
Joye – Team Kelly Clarkson – Never Alone by
Tori Kelly – "I'm not putting myself in a box," says
Kymberli about embracing gospel, "This is who I am!"
Brynn says "This is the most important week." Kelly
thinks the song is a good combo of gospel and radio
relevant. "I do think Kymberli can make it to the Top
4," says Brynn. Kelly says the performance should
incorporate a little bit of everything she's done so far.
This is a good song, with a great hook. And the gospel
element is right in Kymberli's wheelhouse. She hits a big
note at the key change and then takes the room to church.
She's having some pitch problems, but she's so full of
the spirit, I'm gonna cut her a break. Jennifer says,
"You make me feel like I was back home in church!" 
Exclaims Kelly, "I love you! You are insane! It comes from
the heart. Baby girl, you better make the Top
4."  
Oh
Look. It's Jennifer Hudson singing
the Target jingle…as a big diva ballad. Hope she's
getting a few extra bucks from Target for this. She and the
band are dressed in red. There's a gospel choir of kiddos.
She's shoutin' to the lord…for Target. OK then. 
Was this taped last Thursday along with her performance for
Tuesday? Probably. 
Chris
Kroeze – Team Blake Shelton – Can't You See
by The Marshall Tucker Band – Chris chose the song because
it's "awesome" and he grew up listening to it. Blake
likes that Chris stays true to who he is, and brings the
party to the room. He basically compliments him for being a
bar band singer. "My experience on The Voice has convinced
me that I'm a country southern rocker," says Chris.
Well, that's good to know.  The Voice flew Chris's
family out to Los Angeles. That's nice.  And this
performance is also nice, but nothing special. Yep. Chris
does a great job covering old southern rock classics. I'll
bet he's a big hit at those USO shows he plays. But he has
yet to distinguish himself as an original artist. 
Kelly calls him "nostalgic" She compares him to Travis
Tritt and Guns N Roses. It makes her think about hanging out
at the lake with her husband. Blake thanks him for giving
the beer drinking back road driving fans of the show someone
to root for. None of that sounded like a
compliment.
Kymberli
Joye and MaKenzie Thomas – Got To Be Real/Best of
My Love –  They're roommates. MaKenzie says
Kymberli talks in her sleep. Ha! I was so sure they'd do
gospel together. But this is good! Two big voiced singers
covering two of the greatest disco songs of the 70's era.
So much fun and the gay dudes are gonna love it,
amiright? Bandleader
Paul arranged all of the duet arrangements. John Legend and
Esperanza Spalding will perform on next week's
finale.
Kennedy
Holmes – Team Jennifer Hudson – This is Me by
Keala Settle (Greatest Showman) – Back at the
church–Jennifer shares that she gave "This is Me" to
Kennedy because it's a great transition song for a young
person. Kennedy breaks down a little during rehearsal.
It's a little overwhelming for her at times. The young
singer is turning 14 this week. Oh man. I've kinda had it
with "This is Me" on singing shows. But as song picks
go, it's a good one for Kennedy. It's relatable for a
kid her age.  She has such a gorgeous tone, this girl.
In a couple of years, she'll be an incredible artist. Oh.
The kids in the pit changed into white shirts for a black
light effect. Carson wants to know how that happened. Ha.
Jennifer is so proud of Kennedy. "I feel you can truly
relate to this song…and be who you are." 

Reagan
Strange – Team Adam Levine – You Are the Reason
by Calum Scott – Adam and Reagan volunteer at a Toys for
Tots event. "It was a strange week." Adam says only
glancing over the drama that went on last week. He
stresses that he loves DeAndre and they talked and they're
all good. Erm. Maybe not. Reagan and her mom
love to go "song shopping" and it was actually mom who
found this song. Adam says Reagan really feels the songs she
sings. Her emotions are "evolved" he says. Oh. We see
DeAndre on the phone with Reagan saying nice things and
wishing her luck. I was pretty sure Reagan would be
eliminated in the bottom this week, but maybe not. The show
made a big deal out of proving there were no hard feelings
all around. And, this is one of Reagan's better
performances.  Her stage presence remains awkward, but
she's connecting to the song and staying in tune (mostly).
And then she gets a little weepy at the end. So. Blake calls
the performance a "breath of fresh air." "I'm so
proud of you, but also so happy for you," says Adam. "I
was so connected with you the whole time. That's why this
girl deserves to be in the finale next week." Adam is sure
she will have a bright future, no matter what
happens. 
Chris
Kroeze and Sarah Grace – Jumpin Jack Flash/Chain
of Fools – They do a fun thing together in a photo booth.
Chris compliments Sarah, saying he didn't have the voice
she does at 16. Chris is on guitar and Sarah on keyboards.
They're playing out in front of a very loud band.
Sarah's vocals aren't really cutting through the way
Chris's are. But then they do a little musical interlude,
where they jam on their instruments, and it's pretty cool.
When Sarah grabs the mic and walks out from behind the
piano, her vocals are finally front and center. The sound
mixing on this is kind of wonky. 
Chevel
Shepherd – Team Kelly Clarkson – Blue by LeAnn
Rimes – Kelly wants to show off Chevel's pure voice this
week. "LeAnn Rimes is going to love you!" Chevel began
crying when Loretta Lynn reached out to her on Facebook.
"Make your moment! Be a diva for a minute," says
Kelly.  These glimpses of Brynn at the showcase include
previews of some new songs, so that's cool. Chevel kicks
off the song real slow with just a twangy guitar as back up,
before the band kicks in.  Kelly picked another perfect
song to show off Chevel's old school country soul. Her
yodel is like an ache, her tone clear as a bell. So pretty
yet so real. Adam loves her voice and what she represents.
"It's been so much fun watching you." Kelly says,
"This is pure country! They don't make it like this
anymore!" 
Kirk
Jay – Team Blake Shelton – I Swear by John
Michael Montgomery (also R&B group All-4-One)  –
Kirk has the pimp spot AGAIN. This boy is going to win the
whole thing. "It's not even about me no more," says
Kirk. Blake picked the song because it fits his style as a
country balladeer with a pop sensibility. Kirk is dedicating
the song to a girl named Courtney who is battling cancer.
Her father reached out to him after his blind audition.
"I'm here because of people like Courtney," says Kirk.
He does his country ballad thing, like he always does.
He's super earnest and emotional. His voice sounds tired
this week, he's struggling a little on the high notes. But
does it matter? Kirk is a crowd pleaser. Jennifer is his
biggest fan. She's going to miss watching him sing every
week. She begs people to vote for him. She's advocating
for him more than her own singers. Adam calls his voice
"identifiable." Blake says, "I could not be more proud
of you." And then Carson cuts in, because we are running
short of time!
