With America voting I think Carter has a good shot at winning. I just feel like he'll get the teenager votes.

Need to KnowTonight
is all about us the viewers, welcome to fan week (AKA bus
songs week!)Fans
picked the songs and we are going to meet the super fans and
check in with viewing parties throughout the country.
5 singers will go home tomorrow and our votes will
determine who goes home. Voting is open now!Kicking
off the night with the cowboy Blake Shelton and we are
meeting some of Gyth's biggest fans. They are
holding up a sign that says Gyth. The fans love that
he is the whole package. Gyth is doing a Blake song.
Blake says the fans made the right decision, he knows
how to work the crowd and get intimate. Gyth's first
concert was a Blake concert and he's a big fan.
Blake says this guy is going places!
Gyth Rigdon "Nobody But Me"
Team BlakeHe is
standing at the mic with his guitar. He also has a
piano and other instrumentalists behind him. He sounds
decent he's a little hard to understand in the lower
register.. He puts guitar down and now it's just him
and the mic as he walks around the stage. He sounds
better in the chorus and bridge where he is in his higher
register, strong ending. Blake on his feet.
John
loves Gyth, he was great up there. He carries himself
with star presence. Blake says he agree with John, he
does belong here. He owns the stage, and is an
undiscovered talent.When
we come back Kim Cherry takes the stage!Blake
tells Kim we've had artists try what she has and not get
very far. Kim is worried about how it will be
received. Clips of fans and TLC tweeting that they are
rooting for her. Hmmm not sure about this song choice.
Blake tells her to do the song straight. Kim
loves the song, and says it fits her awesome man.
Blake reminds us that rap is hard, it requires rhythm
and personality. Indiana in the house as two of
Kim's fans are on the camera, they love her mad rapping
skills. They get the honor of introducing
her…
Kim
Cherry "Whatta Man" Team BlakeNeon
columns, as Kim comes out on the stage, she has no glasses
on. Two back up singers on the stage. She starts
out rapping immediately. She is a good rapper, and
looks very confident and comfortable on the stage. She
laughs during the song when it talks about laughing.
Pretty sure we've never heard this on the Voice.
She's singing to her boyfriend now. This is
mostly rap and not really showing off her voice.
Somewhat big note at the end, but never really broke
out into big notes. Blake on his feet.
Kelly
says Kim did exactly what she expected, but she would like
to hear her sing something. Her attitude and rap
separates her, but she wants to hear her wail (I agree).
Blake tells us it's fun to see what the fans choose,
that song choice was perfect. Great performance, great
job.
Up next Jej, Andrew, and OlivUp
next is Jej Kelly's save. He's excited to
represent the Philippines in the top 13. Kelly thinks
he will be in the finale. Kelly is throwing papers at
him during rehearsals. He had a watch party during his
blind audition. Kelly is pushing Jej to be vulnerable.
Jej is ready to show us the beast in him. Live
from the viewing party in Glendale, CA of Jej fans (about 20
maybe haha).
Jej
Vinson "Close" Team KellyHe's
starting off on the keyboards. He is starting off more
vulnerable we've heard and in tune so that's good.
He leaves the keyboards and now it's him and the mic
on the stage. Adding his signature runs. There
are a lot of back up vocals in this song while he sings
oooo… He breaks into bigger notes and runs and ends
on a big, tender ooooo.. That was okay. His runs are
overdone for me, but better then he has been.
Adam
loves Jej's voice, he loves his tone. Adam envisions
him in the finale, he did great. Kelly's favorite
thing about him is that he has style and grace with his
runs, sexy, and angelic. She will be shocked if he is
not in the finale. (Um, good luck with
that).Andrew's
up next, followed by Oliv and DexterGyth
is shown screaming for Andrew going through. Blake
tells Andrew he's connected with country fans across the
nation. Hi fans made cookies and T-shirts in his
hometown of 4,000 people. Blake says Andrew is in awe
of this opportunity. The fans gave him a contemporary
country song, he infuses a Southern rock sound. He
doesn't back down from any song. We go to Burleson
TX viewing party for Andrew. Hmmm this is Kelly's
hometown, and they are copying Idol with these
hometown/viewing watch parties.
Andrew
Sevener "She Got the Best in Me" Team
BlakeAndrew
stands at the mic with his guitar as we would expect.
There's a tree backdrop behind him, drums and some
back up singers, and guitarists. His voice is so solid
and pure, he sounds really good. I'm not a country
fan but he's good. He throws his guitar behind his
back and heads to center stage, hits some wailing, big
notes. Solid, predictable performance..
John
loved his energy, wanted more finesse and he felt his
passion in the performance. Blake says Andrew is on 10
all the time, and that's why he has a huge fan base, but
he realizes every second that goes by that's he here.
Blake appreciates his attitude.
Coming up Oliv, Dexter, and Shawn!Reminder:
Five go home tomorrow, and lol that we have already seen
almost Blake's whole team before 9:00.UP
next Oliv Blu's Blake save. She was so grateful for
the opportunity to be saved. Blake loves that she is
jazz. He thinks the fans will love her even more after
this song, because she will take it to the next level.
Her sisters are her three biggest fans. Blake
says Oliv is unique and special. She is talking to her
sisters on her laptop and her twin sister Brooke gets to
introduce her. (Wow they couldn't find any fans
other than her family?)
Oliv
Blu "Smooth Operator" Team BlakeSaxophone
behind her, excellent lighting on her face. She is
doing an expected jazzy take on this song. Not a huge
fan of the song, but it does allow her to show her different
take on things. Her face is so animated as she sings.
she's wearing a long red dress, she moves away from
the mic stand now but she sounds a little nervous. The
song never really takes off it was okay. Blake is on
his feet.
John
regrets that he's her former coach, she was impressive.
Comments on her hair (it's huge) and her look.
He says it takes discipline to sing with clarity and
she pulled it off. Blake tells her she sounded
incredible and he feels like she came out of her shell and
embraced the moment she became an artist on stage
tonight.Coming
back to back performances of Dexter and Shawn followed by
Celia…Reminder
that you can stream on Apple music, and the artist with the
most streamed artists has theirs streams multiplied by
5..Dexter
has a lot of fans outside. Blake glad to see him
representing the early 2000's. Dexter loves the song and
the facts that the fans know he is country. He has a
special fan back home named Abby, she has cerebral palsy she
comes to his shows and she loves to sing. Blake says
Dexter works so hard but also someone you want to be buddies
with. The Voice flew Abby out to the show to see
Dexter perform. Abby is now with Carson and she gets
to introduce Dexter.
Dexter
Roberts "Something Like That" Team
BlakeHe
doesn't have a guitar he sounds like he's talking a bit
at the beginning of this. He is wearing a leather
jacket and a ball cap interesting for a country singer.
Some of the girls are screaming in the background.
He is playing the audience but we are losing his voice
as he walks. A few big notes, classic country
performance. Is anyone else bored with all these
country songs? That was good but I've seen him do
better. Blake is on his feet.
Kelly
says she loves the song pick and thanks the fans.
Kelly says country is a lifestyle and the song
connected to it. Blake tells us Dexter was worried
about the song not being vocally challenged enough, Blake
says he did a great job.Shawn
says he has an outpouring of support from the fans,
including clips of his students. This is one of my
favorite songs. John says Shawn is amazing.
Shawn's Mom was his biggest fan, and he wants to
draw on the emotion that he misses her. John says grab
America by the heart and make them fall in love. A
viewing party in Houston, TX introduces Shawn. These
crowds are so small (maybe like 40 people in this
one).
Shawn
Sounds "A House is Not a Home" Team
LegendLove
the hat and the sparkly jacket. He has an interesting
lower register and it's just his voice and a piano.
He is putting some runs into it, John is on his feet.
Maybe a bit much embellishment, but he has a great
voice and this is good. He is keeping it jazzy and
tender. I'm waiting for some belting.. One big
note… but that never turned into a wailing song like
i was expecting. But it was good. All four
coaches on their feet. First four coach standing O
tonight. Carson fawning over that. Definitely
better then everyone else so far tonight.
Adam
tells him he's incredible, and it was the best of the
night, his personality, his flair. John says it was
one of the best performances this season. He's
happy to have him on his team.When
we come back Celia is up, along with LB and Mari haha
all of Team Adam together.Another
Team Legend upCelia
was picked because her performance of Chains was his
favorite of the season. He loves that the fans picked
a Gaga song for her it's never been sung on the show
before. Celia says the fans chose a great song and
it's a huge honor. Her babini babies have been
sending in videos for her. Her Mom makes most of the
stuff she wears on the show. Babini babies are the
names of her fans and one of them is on video from Orange
County California who thinks she's unique and has passion.
She introduces…
Celia Babini "Shallow" Team
LegendInteresting
pick, song suits her voice. The stage is dark with
just her and the mic. She falls as she sings, and this
causes her to lose her note for a minute. Her voice is
definitely unique, and this song shows her range. She
hits big notes, and goes back to back with the guitar player
on the stage. She is on full volume for the whole rest
of the performance. She is so good at visual
enactments of the song she sings. That was one of her
better performances. She dives into the audiences, and
the fans are lifting her across them in the pit as she
ends.
Adam
her former coach says he misses her. He's happy
she's still on the show, he loves watching her perform.
John tells the audience that Celia was concerned about
the pressure in the song, but she made it her own, visual
performance..LB,
Mari, and Carter on deck…Now
it's the comeback artist LB Krew on Team Adam. LB
says he chose Adam because he started with him. This
performance is for the fans, Adam calls him the comeback
champion. He's one of the best singers in the
competition, he's a beast. The fans chose a Boyz to
men R&B song, and the fans might cry a long with him.
The Mayor of El-Dorado talks about how hot LB was by
turning four chairs. We flash to a viewing party in
Little Rock Arkansas introduce him (again, very small
crowd).
LB
Crew "I'll Make Love to You" Team
Adam LB is
wearing a white jacket, cloud background two back up singers
hidden in the background. This song is a little iffy
for him but he's a good singer. Have I mentioned
that I hate fan pick week? The songs always suck.
He breaks into some big notes, but this song doesn't
allow for a lot of that. Now he's doing some runs,
and going into his falsetto. Dude can sing for sure.
He's jumping on stage after he's done. Crowd
on their feet, and so is Adam.Adam
was thrilled to get LB back, he's a true talent, a kind,
good human. Adam tells him he loves and he's
incredibly talented, and he always brings it. No other
coaches comments….
Back
to back from Mari and Carter when we come back….And
now we see last season's winner Chevel in a Toyota
commercial. Wow we finally see last season's
champ.Adam
hugs Mari as she comes into rehearsals. It means the
world to her that Adam saved her. Mari is gifted
musically and she has stage presence. This Ashanti
song has never been done on the show. Mari is glad
that her fans wanted her to do R&B, some of her fans
have drawn pictures of her. She loves her salon family
and they send her a good luck message. One of Mari's
biggest fan is from Taiwan who sent in a video with her
drawings of Mari, she loves her vibe… give it up
for:
Mari
"Foolish" Team AdamShe's
wearing a short checked dress and there's a black and
yellow background that matches her dress. She is
standing on risers and the yellow and black are
flashing on the stage too. She's really into the
performance but it's not really going anywhere.
Definitely better then last time we heard her.She
sounds pretty good, and is really getting into it but
shes' not that memorable to me. That was better then
she usually is. Adam on his feet.Adam
thinks she's a super star, she has arrived, and she has
reached the point to where she's an artist. She is
her thing, he loves her, and she should be on the
show.
Moving right on to Team BlakeCarter
got his braces off. This song will show off his
vulnerable side. Blake tells him to reach through the
living room and smack people around. Carter has had a
100 prom invite videos. He thought his demographic
would be his Mom but he was wrong. Blake says the
girls love Carter, but he needs Carter to focus. One
of Carter's biggest fans from NC is on live, she says he
has an old soul and he throws his songs out of the ball
park. She introduces Carter.
Carter Lloyd Horne "Let It
Go" Team BlakeIt's
just Carter and the acoustic guitar standing at the mic
stand. Tender, quiet opening. He is just playing
and singing concentrating on his voice. This song is
boring, this performance is boring. He has a good
voice but this isn't memorable enough but he's Team
Blake so he probably doesn't need to be too memorable.
Blake standing but that was meh…Blake
says the fan-picked songs make him nervous, he was worried a
little bit. But he takes everything that gets thrown
at him and runs at it head-on. He killed it
tonight.
Rod
up after the break and Maelyn closing it up!Now
we are onto Kelly's country soul singer Rod Stokes.
He brings his wife Kimberly his biggest fan to his
rehearsal. Never show the demo his wife, haha.
He's going to sing the song to his wife, he tears up
talking about her. Massachusetts mother and son fan on
video saying he has the perfect Southern raspy songs that
his Mom loves.
Rod Stokes "When a Man Loves a
Woman" Team KellyThis
guy's voice is so good, it's a little twangy for me but
the power is undeniable. He is tearing this up, pitch
perfect, powerful. Kelly is standing up already.
He even puts a little run at the end, he hit all the
right notes. That was good one of the best tonight.
Kelly is on her feet.Blake
gets to comment and says he is so good and used to be on his
team. He keeps delivering every time. Kelly says
she adores him, he has a God-given talent, it's beautiful,
majestic power and passion.The
Queen Maelyn closes the night when we come back!One
of Maelyn's biggest fans on the stage he loves that she
has overcome so much and not let that get in the way of her
dreams. Maelyn is touched by all the people with
hearing impairments who have reached out to her. She
loves to do songs originally sung by male artists.
John says she reminds him of Celine Dion and Joni
Mitchell. Maelyn talks about dating a musician, John
says she's the best singer on the show.
Maelyn
Jarmon "The Scientist" Team
LegendIt's
dark and it's Maelyn and a piano. Her voice has so
much emotion and tenderness. This is very subdued and
tender yet powerful. Her black glitter dress is
beautiful too. She is hitting all these notes
perfectly and she is wailing now as she moves away from the
microphone. Gorgeous, John is on his feet.
She's almost crying in her voice. Only John
standing that deserved more. I was almost in
tears.John
says she's the best singer in the competition. Her
skill level is beyond and we are all blessed to hear
her.Tomorrow
night we lock in the semi-finalists and Blake and John both
perform with their teams.. See you tomorrow!
