 The Bachelor – Season 23 Week 9 Recap and Live Blog\
03/04/2019 by

We're moving toward the inevitable end, but not as fast as the House Judiciary Committee is. After four hometown visits as indistinguishable from each otheras Skittles flavors, Colton will travel to the Algarve region of Portugal without the remotest idea of whom to choose among Cassie, Hannah G., and Tayshia, or for that matter, where the Algarve region of Portugal is. Just spin a dreidel, Colton. If the fourth side comes up, go home and try eharmony.com.
More importantly, tonight is the Night of the Fabled Fence Leap, the multiple previews of which are like all those signs along the east coast that herald your arrival at the South of the Border tourist attraction. This will likely be an even bigger letdown, if only because there are no tacos.
Last week ended with the cliffhanger—maybe more of an embankmenthanger—of Colton scurrying off to consult with Chris Harrison after the Rose Ceremony, when he sent Caelynn home. It was also the week that the President took Kim Jong Un at his word, and for something more egregious than denying he finished the last Fudge Stripe cookies, although that would also be impossible to believe.
They should have a shrink, or at least an LCSW, on set, since Chris doesn't have much of a record for resolving emotional crises. He couldn't even reassure the homeowners on Designer's Challenge. ABC also reports that there will be a "first" tonight, "but maybe not the kind we expected." About the only thing we don't expect is substantive conversation, and I will lay money on that not happening.


Let's roll! Be careful out there, Bachelor Nation. In LA, Colton talks with Chris. He's thinking about how big this week is, while the women are thinking of how big he'll be this week. Colton thinks you shouldn't anticipate too much, but he does hope to wake up with the woman he'll share the rest of his life with, and without too serious a hangover. As expected, Chris has no insight to offer that can't be found in a fortune cookie.
Now they're off to Portugal. Colton has only ever been to Europe via a Dan Brown novel, so this is exciting for him. The women are all aflutter over the virginity thing, which they grow ever closer to conquering like the Mongols did Hungary in 1241. There must be Facebook pages for that kind of thing.


Hannah G. reminds us that she received the First Impression Rose, which she feels earns her an advantage. She's forgotten that Gwyneth Paltrow got Brad Pitt's First Impression Rose.


Tayshia meets up with Colton first, giving him the ol' leap-up-and-wrap-his-waist-with-your-legs move that's become so prevalent I expect to Kamala Harris to greet the debate moderators that way. They're heading to a place that's known to be magical, Colton tells her as he leads her to a helicopter. They're going to rescue Schwarzenegger off the side of a skyscraper? No, they fly over the lush Portuguese landscape, discussing the country's principle exports, as most young lovers do.
Next, over wine on a windy mountaintop, they review how well the hometown visit to Tayshia's family went. They express their pleasure with having experienced new things together, like bungee-jumping, skydiving, and making out in front of a TV audience. Tayshia enthuses that they are taking their relationship to the next level, which may next rise to the height of a Portuguese hotel mattress.
That night, Tayshia looks forward to going to the Fantasy Suite and guiding Colton through the daunting process of boffing his first woman who isn't printed in a magazine spread at the time. To help him along, she has worn a dress cut so low that her cleavage spills from the neckline like the filling in a banh mi.
Tayshia discusses the importance of truth in a relationship, which she values even more since her husband cheated on her. Colton is blown away by the person she is after all she's been through, including auditioning for this show. He promises he will always be truthful with her if they end up together at the end of the season. Thanks, pal. He gives her the suite key, though. She can start him off by having him remove the double-sided tape from her bosom.
In the suite, Colton struggles to open a champagne bottle as his voice-over muses that losing his virginity will likely be a piece of cake. Then the cork explodes unexpectedly, overwhelming both him and the FCC's inbox. Oh, The Bachelor, you're the best.
Next morning, the couple greets each other in bed, dressed in nearly as much clothing as I wear to shovel snow. He liked "spending time with you," while she "enjoyed our conversation." So did they do it, and these are really lame metaphors? Tayshia admits Colton remains chaste. At least they had time to talk privately about the native wildflowers of Portugal.


He remarks that he restrained himself because there are two other women to consider before he sharpens his pencil for the first time. While he is falling in love with Tayshia, he's still got a few credits to finish until he can graduate. He also knows you can't force feelings, so he will continue to follow his gut, ideally enhanced with a good probiotic.
Now he will spend the day with Cassie. They head off in a convertible as he expresses hope that by tonight they'll be in love, like dogs learning to shake paw. That only took my brother's Lab about 15 minutes.


Cassie giggles perpetually in between make-out sessions amid attractive city locales like rustic street markets and simple, old-world architecture. Colton says he wants to explore more things together with Cassie. Maybe the tourist board that arranged their trip can also steer him toward her G-spot.
Colton babbles so much about how great Cassie is that it's clear he's all in for her. But she hasn't said she's falling for him. Maybe she should have gone third in the line-up so he doesn't have to give Hannah G. the cold shoulder. Cassie does rave about him, and how safe and comfortable he makes her feel, like a St. Bernard with a Thermos of cocoa around its neck. Nevertheless, she wants more time to decide how she feels. It's possible a Golden Retriever carrying a pillow would suit her better.
They discuss how her hometown meeting went. No one cares, for God's sake; they're bombing children in Yemen. Cassie acknowledges that spending forever with someone is a really big commitment, much like leasing a Nissan Rogue. Colton reveals that her dad didn't give his approval for their engagement. Cassie is deeply distressed  by this revelation, but then she feels the same way when the movie theater is out of Twizzlers. Why can't he just ask her father again when he decides to propose to her? Is there a rider in the contract that prohibits acting like normal people?
Next, we see Cassie's dad knocking on her door in Portugal. He's concerned about Colton proposing, and wants to discuss it further with her. They couldn't Skype about this? Anyway, marriage is a sacred thing to Dad, as well as to many clergy and divorce lawyers. He wants Cassie to be sure about Colton before she agrees to a permanent pairing. "Yeh. I do," she replies passionately to the question of whether she might be able to love such a witless pot roast of a man.
Basically, Cassie would prefer that before she accepts a ring, she could experience a normal dating period, ideally not captured on video, and her girlfriends review her wedding theme ideas. Dad, who thought a gray t-shirt was appropriate attire for this moment, assures Cassie that she would know if Colon were Mr. Right.. To be fair, though, they haven't spent enough time together for her to know his favorite breakfast cereal. After all, it took me at least three episodes of Starsky and Hutch to fall in love with Paul Michael Glaser.
Night falls on Cassie and Colton. She is resolute about what she has to do, as difficult as it will be for both of them and several people commenting angrily on my tweets. Meanwhile, Colton is very excited, both in his heart and in his pants. She's the one for him, he asserts confidently. We can hear the fence laughing cruelly from outside.
The pair toast contentedly before Cassie grows somber. Colton tries to explain how Dad's disapproval is not really a drawback for him. She sighs, looking away from him as she describes Dad's earlier visit. "Today?" Colton asks. No, Colton, last Arbor Day. Cassie tries to tell him it's not going anywhere for her. He tries to counter her with babble about not wanting to end things with the person he wants.
Cassie is too unsure, she tells him. Crying commences. Was she planning on leaving tonight, he wants to know.. "I don't know, I don't know, I hate that I don't know," Cassie cries—a lesser-known line from Gone with the Wind—then rushes from the room. She agonizes that she's second-guessing herself. Her dress is so tight, maybe the blood is cut off from her brain. This is a more tortured decision than that time I couldn't choose between the fish or the chicken at my cousin's wedding reception.
As she continues to flail around on the terrace, Colton comes to embrace her. She doesn't know if she can "get there," she tells him miserably. I still don't understand that expression. I can't get there only when there's traffic backed up on I-278. Colton doesn't want to lose her, he murmurs.
He asks her to come back inside and talk, where the lighting crew is already set up. He won't give up on her, he insists fiercely. This is a less compelling conflict than when Laura was falling in love with Luke on General Hospital. And even that weather machine storyline was more believable.
After a lot more "I don't knows" versus "I want a future with you," Colton says the immortal words found on a Sweethearts Tiny Conversation Candy Heart: "I love you." Not the winning slogan for Cassie's account. She hugs him tearfully as he vows that he won't stop fighting for this indecisive simp. Where's the fence already?
They finally rise and don their coats to leave as tinkly piano music communicates the mood. He tenderly kisses her forehead, telling her he wants the best for her, for example, being the next Bachelorette. She wants the best for him, too, which should be a shave and a community college education at the very least. But she tells him again that she can't "get there" without the aid of stimulants. He murmurs, "I love you" and walks off as she climbs into the limo.
The camera chases him up the hotel stairs, then stops to gape at the closed door. Moments later, he declares he's done with this, and charges out of the room. Finally, it's fence time! As Colton marches toward the unimposing white gate, a voice yells "Somebody get Chris!" He is apparently five feet away, as he appears immediately to shout for their lead cast member. The crew gets the fence open as a dog barks menacingly in the distance. He liked Cassie for the win, too.
Chris and the crew amble out and call into the darkness of a Portugal night, but Colton is nowhere to be seen. Odds are they'll find him at the nearest bar, getting blitzed while fondling one of Cassie's bras.
See all you masochists tomorrow night.

The Voice Season 16 Recap - Blind Auditions 3 Live Blog and Videos

The Voice season 16 Blind Auditions continue for a third night. Join us as we live blog all the Blind Audition p...


The Voice Season 16 Recap – Blind Auditions 3 Live Blog and Videos

03/04/2019 by
The Voice season 16 Blind Auditions continue tonight with veteran coaches Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, Kelly Clarkson, and new kid on the block, John Legend. Carson Daly returns as host. We're live blogging all the performances here.. Watch as the coaches build their teams.
FYI: Like last season, there are no studio recording for the Blind Auditions. Apple music does provide links to the original versions of the contestant's song choices. Additionally, The Comeback Stage digital series returns with coach Bebe Rexha. Click for more details. And the block is back. Each coach has one opportunity to "block" a coach from picking a contestant.
Last week John Legend became the most blocked coach in Voice history!  Tonight all the blocks are gone, so coaches will have to take advantage of every opportunity.  Game On!
Jacob Maxwell, Coeur d'Alene, ID "Delicate" by Taylor Swift
The first artist takes the stage and Kelly says she's excited?  The first artist John and Kelly turn pretty quickly, Kelly is mouthing is that a guy?  He has a smooth voice, the demo will eat this guy up.  He stands at the microphone and plays the guitar.  He has more power at the end then I was expecting since he started soft and smooth.  After his audition they show some clips of his hometown.  Jacob started playing guitar when he was 12 years old, and then he started playing shows after High School.  He has a feeling in his heart that he isn't supposed to stay in Idaho.  Kelly tells him her daughter will love him.  She says she loved that he took a chick song and made it into a dude song, and he moved her.  Adam says he was stupid.  Blake says Adam and him were both waiting for more of what they heard at the end.  John says he's glad Jacob has a Biblical name because his voice is heavenly.  He sounds like Jeff Buckley.  Tells him he is a pure beautiful singer who looks like Leonardo DiCaprio.  Jacob picks Team John!  
John says his voice has a beautiful otherworldly song and the girls will vote for him.
Kelly says in season 16 men are against her, because she can't get a dude to come to her team.
Karly Moreno, 23, Mission Dale, CA  "Starving" by Hailee Steinfeld & Grey 
The next artist is freaking out that the judges are just sitting out there.  She spends a lot of time at the skate park with her two older brothers.  She can skate the pool better than her brothers.  She has the same amount of commitment that she does to skating.  She's been singing as long as she can remember.  A cute clip of her as a 5 year old.  She's been writing songs but she's ready for the next step.  She has a unique sounding voice, but this is a little boring.  I don't think anyone is going to turn for this, the song isn't really going anywhere.  She hits a little run towards the end and Adam turns.  Adam says he listened to her very carefully, she reminds him of Regina Spektor, a raw tone.  She could have a song on the radio right now.  He thinks she will be underestimated moving forward.  John says she sounded wonderful, beautiful tone..  John said he questioned her range and dynamic.  Kelly loved the purity of her voice, peaceful vibe will make her stand out.  Blake says she's on the voice.  Karley is Team Adam!  Karley has been listening to Adam her whole life.  Adam said she sounded pure and simple.
Luna Searles, 37, Atlanta, GA "Nutbush City Limits" by Ike & Tina Turner
The next artist is so excited.  She auditioned back in Season 2, and she didn't get a chair.  She has a learned a lot since then, started singing around Atlanta.  Says it's difficult to be a black girl  trying to sing rock music.  Her Mom says her voice is stronger and she's glad she didn't give up.  Luna says she's more focused and discipline then she was when she first came out here.  She feels better about getting up there and performing.  She's here to share her gift and what makes her happy.  She has a big, soulful voice and she's singing a song we've heard before but in a more rock style.  She's very comfortable up there, but she is saying some of the words instead of singing.  No one is turning.  She hits a big run "ooooo" at the end.  Still a no chair turn.  Her Mom is crying.  Adam tells her she's a great singer.  Adam says there was something else she needed to hear, the last note came too late.  John said they just didn't hear it but they believe she can do it.  No chair turn.
Carson is chatting with the coaches.  John says he felt welcome even though they all blocked him.  John says he loves his team.  Kelly says she feels personally threatened because no guy has picked her.  Kelly thinks John for coming.
Carter Lloyd Horne, 19, Marietta, GA "Drinkin Problem" by Midland
His Mom told him to picture people in his underwear.  In 2008 his family lost their home in the market crash and they became homeless.  For a year and a half they lived in his motel.  His Grandma got him a cheap guitar, and learning it gave him something to focus on.  He started gigging around Marietta, he plays at bars and restaurants but he's ready for something more.  His parents worked hard and things are better now.  The Voice is his chance to make something out of himself, and to help his parents like they help him.  He's teary when he says that.  He's got a gritty, yet pretty country voice.  He's wearing white and playing guitar standing at the microphone.  His parents look so sad as it looks like he isn't going to get a chair, and right on the last note Kelly and Blake both turn.  The audience erupts.  Adam tells him he's not even allowed to have a drinking problem, and that he just sang a wildly inappropriate song for his age.  Blake says if you like inappropriate and he points to himself.  Adam is endorsing Blake on this one, saying Blake might be the perfect fit for him.  Kelly says he has an old school vibe, and he stands out, haven't heard anyone like him.  Adam says he's Blake Jr.  Blake says he knows what's he doing and he admires that, there was some pitch problems.  He recovered it at the end, and he would be proud to have him on his team.  Carter picks….  Team Blake!  Blake loves Carter's voice, has an edge to it.  Carter said he felt a connection with Blake.
Kelly says her Achilles heel is still men won't pick her.   Points to herself and says women love this!
Talon Cardon, 18, Odem, UT "Say you won't let go" by James Arthur
He works at a Chinese restaurant.  He gets asked questions about Chinese food.  He bought his first guitar at 12, by 14 he had written 2 songs.  He now travels Utah performing.  He grew up with his Mom but spent more time with his Dad.  When he was 16 his Dad, his police officer was in a bad car accident.  Talon says he scared him to death and he couldn't imagine his life without his Dad.  He chose the song for the emotion in it.  He's wearing a yellow jacket and he's very nervous at first.  The audience really likes it.  He has a charm about him while he's singing.  He sounds like he's forcing it a bit as no one turns.  And once again a last second chair turn at the bell by John.  Adam tells him he's talented, and that John can help him with the little things he heard.  Kelly says he couldn't be with a better coach.  John says welcome to Team Legend, he's happy to have him.  Says he started off a little slow and he delivered at the end.  Talon is Team John!  John says Talon has a special voice, cool tone, great range.
Bebe Rexha tells us there will be new Lay's potato chip flavors to go along with the Comeback Stage.
A Voice first!! Patrick & Ruby McAloon Barrington, RI
They are father and daughter and they are auditioning together but not together.  Dad says he's been working at this for 25 years and been touring the country as a side man for Pat McGee.  Ruby says she grew up surrounded by her Dad.  She had her first show at 13.  She sings a song she wrote as a kid.  It's cool that she's as passionate about music as he is her Dad tells us.  Patrick says he has spent so many years being a side man, he's ready to share all his years of passion and artistry.
Patrick McAloon, 40, Barrington, RI "RunAway Train" by Soul Asylum
Dad's up first.  He's got a cool hat on, and he's got a gritty voice.  He reminds me a bit of Josh Kaufman, but not as smooth.   You can tell he's a seasoned performer.  Blake and Adam both turn.  He really gets into after the chair turns, big note at the end and John also turns.  Patrick says he's a freak about Sting and Peter Gabriel.  John tells him he sounded incredible, big powerful and also tender notes, with skill, charm and presence.  Adam says he's excited to work with him.  Adam says every once in a while he finds someone who does different things with songs, he has a gritty, high range and he loves everything about him.  Blake says he likes Sting and Peter Gabriel, but he loves Patrick.  Blake would be honored to have him on his team.  Patrick chooses Team Adam!  Adam says his song choice spoke to him, and John tells us they were made for each other.
Ruby McAloon 16, Barrington, RI "Back To You" by Selena Gomez
Ruby is motivated by her Dad getting 3 chair turns.  She's ready to go and sing her heart out..  Her voice is really unique, she is having some pitch issues.  You can tell she's really nervous.  Kelly says she's cute.  No chair turn.  She tells them her Dad just auditioned.  Adam tells her he loves her voice, to take this moment as a great moment..  He tells her to be inspired by her Dad's years of hard work..  John says she has wonderful voice with range, she needs some more seasoning.  Kelly remembers that she was 19 when she was auditioning, she wanted to hear more range.  No chair turn.  She handled it so gracefully.
Alena D'Amico, 26, Detroit, MI "In My Blood" by Shawn Mendes
She grew up in a big Italian family, you have to speak louder then the other person.  She had stage fright so she stopped music after High School and went to cosmetology school.  She's engaged to an Italian man and they talk about how they met.  She hid singing from him for years until one day he heard in the car.  He encouraged her to go for it.  She wants to make her family proud.  After the break she sings….
Her poor Mom is so nervous.  She has a powerful voice but some enunciation issues it's hard to tell what she's singing.  She has a big, powerful voice and hits some big notes.  Kelly and Blake both turn.  Blake is on his feet.  Alena tells Adam he's really cute. Adam says don't pick Blake pick Kelly, and Kelly would be a great coach for a strong and female powerful female singer.  Blake says he's been out witted and out cuted and he doesn't have women power, but he has 16 seasons of being the most winning coach on this show.  He cares about seeing her with The Voice trophy and that's what he specializes in and there's nobody like her on his team.  Kelly says she loves the passion, but she needs to reign it in with tiny areas and she turned because they can get past that.  Alena picks Team Kelly!  Kelly loves her passion and she's excited, even though she still has not men on her team.
Kanard Thomas, 28, Jacksonville, FL "Riding with the King" by BB King and Eric Clapton
His son is his everything and he wants his son to look up to him.  He grew up without his Mother and Father he was raised by his Aunt in a household of 8+ children.  His Aunt instilled in him to not be a product of his environment and to not give up.  He had his son at 19, and he had to become an adult.  He works in a band on a Holland American cruise ship, to do what it takes to support his family.  He is singing with flashing lights behind him, good voice, but nothing exciting really so far, kind of boring.  Smooth voice with a few falsetto notes.  No chair turn again, a lot of those tonight.  I'm not surprised it wasn't anything exciting.  Blake says he's a good singer he was looking for more edge/desperation in the performance, too laid back.  Kelly tells him it was too controlled.  John says he wanted some flair, something transcendent.  Adam says he needed some urgency.  No chairs.  The good news for Kanard is that he is  the third comeback artist chosen by Bebe Rexha! He sounds much better in this clip then he did in his audition.
Dexter Roberts, 27 Fayette, AL "Like a Cowboy" by Randy Houser
He likes to hunt, fish, being outdoors.  True Alabama country boy.  He got a guitar as a boy and he kept singing Sweet Home Alabama until his Mom told him to stop it.  About 3 years ago he got real sick, couldn't play music anymore, went all over the country to see doctors.  He was so sick, and finally Doctors figured out that he had Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever.  His dream is to be out playing gigs and hearing his song on the radio.  This guy is really good, great country singer with a smooth, rich tone.  WGWG will be popular with the country loving demo.  All three judges but Adam turn pretty quickly.  He has a really big voice Kelly, Blake on their feet.  And once again a last second turn, Adam turns making him get all 4 chairs.  Crowd is on fire!  John says everything is perfect, he doesn't know country but he knows a great voice.  Adam tells him anyone of us knows when something is transcendent enough, and that's why he pushed.  He said don't pick me because that would be too daring.  Blake told him to ask the other coaches who sang the song he auditioned with.  John says Blake wants to limit him and the rest of there are to expand his horizon.  Kelly says she almost didn't turn because males don't pick her, and secondly, we all know that you are probably going to Uncle Blake..  Kelly says think about the strategy of who is going to have more country singers on their team.  Blake says let me pull myself out from under this bus, country artists know who they are and who they come from.  And no surprise Dexter picks Team Blake!  
Kelly says she's not turning around for anymore boys.
Jej Vincent, 22, Philippines  "Passion Fruit" by Drake
Music is a huge part of his life  He discovered Beyonce, Destiny's Child, which is so different then Filipino music.  He moved to the US when he was 15 so they could have a better life.  His parents left everything behind to move to the US.  Jej started out as a dishwasher, then a bed maker, nursing assistant he wanted to go to med school.  Seeing his parents struggle was hard for him.  He moved to California to pursue a career in music and thanks his parents for their support.  Jej says he connects to John Legend because of the music he writes.  He has a really nice ton though a little over run for me personally.  Blake turns right away.  He has a good baritone that goes effortlessly into falsetto.  4 chair turn, Blake and Kelly on their feet as he ends with a string of runs.  Kelly comes up to shake his hand.  Adam tells him he's a better singer than all of us.  John says he was worried that he would stay in the zone, but then he went into the runs with precision and beauty.  Adam tells him not to be too perfect, and he would want to get him to a place where people can feel him as well as they can hear him, connect people to his heart.  Blake says they all think they are looking at the winner of The Voice this season.  Blake tells him not to stay in a box, uses the other coaches arguments against them.  Blake says he wins the show a lot.  Kelly says she can win the show with you, you're incredible.  She says his run has finesse.   Jej chooses Team  Kelly!  Shocking everyone!!  Kelly says she's hopes that he's on the radio someday.

The Voice Season 16 Recap – Blind Auditions 3 Live Blog and Videos

03/04/2019 by
The Voice season 16 Blind Auditions continue tonight with veteran coaches Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, Kelly Clarkson, and new kid on the block, John Legend. Carson Daly returns as host. We're live blogging all the performances here.. Watch as the coaches build their teams.
FYI: Like last season, there are no studio recording for the Blind Auditions. Apple music does provide links to the original versions of the contestant's song choices. Additionally, The Comeback Stage digital series returns with coach Bebe Rexha. Click for more details. And the block is back. Each coach has one opportunity to "block" a coach from picking a contestant.
Last week John Legend became the most blocked coach in Voice history!  Tonight all the blocks are gone, so coaches will have to take advantage of every opportunity.  Game On!
Jacob Maxwell, Coeur d'Alene, ID "Delicate" by Taylor Swift
The first artist takes the stage and Kelly says she's excited?  The first artist John and Kelly turn pretty quickly, Kelly is mouthing is that a guy?  He has a smooth voice, the demo will eat this guy up.  He stands at the microphone and plays the guitar.  He has more power at the end then I was expecting since he started soft and smooth.  After his audition they show some clips of his hometown.  Jacob started playing guitar when he was 12 years old, and then he started playing shows after High School.  He has a feeling in his heart that he isn't supposed to stay in Idaho.  Kelly tells him her daughter will love him.  She says she loved that he took a chick song and made it into a dude song, and he moved her.  Adam says he was stupid.  Blake says Adam and him were both waiting for more of what they heard at the end.  John says he's glad Jacob has a Biblical name because his voice is heavenly.  He sounds like Jeff Buckley.  Tells him he is a pure beautiful singer who looks like Leonardo DiCaprio.  Jacob picks Team John!  
John says his voice has a beautiful otherworldly song and the girls will vote for him.
Kelly says in season 16 men are against her, because she can't get a dude to come to her team.
Karly Moreno, 23, Mission Dale, CA  "Starving" by Hailee Steinfeld & Grey 
The next artist is freaking out that the judges are just sitting out there.  She spends a lot of time at the skate park with her two older brothers.  She can skate the pool better than her brothers.  She has the same amount of commitment that she does to skating.  She's been singing as long as she can remember.  A cute clip of her as a 5 year old.  She's been writing songs but she's ready for the next step.  She has a unique sounding voice, but this is a little boring.  I don't think anyone is going to turn for this, the song isn't really going anywhere.  She hits a little run towards the end and Adam turns.  Adam says he listened to her very carefully, she reminds him of Regina Spektor, a raw tone.  She could have a song on the radio right now.  He thinks she will be underestimated moving forward.  John says she sounded wonderful, beautiful tone..  John said he questioned her range and dynamic.  Kelly loved the purity of her voice, peaceful vibe will make her stand out.  Blake says she's on the voice.  Karley is Team Adam!  Karley has been listening to Adam her whole life.  Adam said she sounded pure and simple.
Luna Searles, 37, Atlanta, GA "Nutbush City Limits" by Ike & Tina Turner
The next artist is so excited.  She auditioned back in Season 2, and she didn't get a chair.  She has a learned a lot since then, started singing around Atlanta.  Says it's difficult to be a black girl  trying to sing rock music.  Her Mom says her voice is stronger and she's glad she didn't give up.  Luna says she's more focused and discipline then she was when she first came out here.  She feels better about getting up there and performing.  She's here to share her gift and what makes her happy.  She has a big, soulful voice and she's singing a song we've heard before but in a more rock style.  She's very comfortable up there, but she is saying some of the words instead of singing.  No one is turning.  She hits a big run "ooooo" at the end.  Still a no chair turn.  Her Mom is crying.  Adam tells her she's a great singer.  Adam says there was something else she needed to hear, the last note came too late.  John said they just didn't hear it but they believe she can do it.  No chair turn.
Carson is chatting with the coaches.  John says he felt welcome even though they all blocked him.  John says he loves his team.  Kelly says she feels personally threatened because no guy has picked her.  Kelly thinks John for coming.
Carter Lloyd Horne, 19, Marietta, GA "Drinkin Problem" by Midland
His Mom told him to picture people in his underwear.  In 2008 his family lost their home in the market crash and they became homeless.  For a year and a half they lived in his motel.  His Grandma got him a cheap guitar, and learning it gave him something to focus on.  He started gigging around Marietta, he plays at bars and restaurants but he's ready for something more.  His parents worked hard and things are better now.  The Voice is his chance to make something out of himself, and to help his parents like they help him.  He's teary when he says that.  He's got a gritty, yet pretty country voice.  He's wearing white and playing guitar standing at the microphone.  His parents look so sad as it looks like he isn't going to get a chair, and right on the last note Kelly and Blake both turn.  The audience erupts.  Adam tells him he's not even allowed to have a drinking problem, and that he just sang a wildly inappropriate song for his age.  Blake says if you like inappropriate and he points to himself.  Adam is endorsing Blake on this one, saying Blake might be the perfect fit for him.  Kelly says he has an old school vibe, and he stands out, haven't heard anyone like him.  Adam says he's Blake Jr.  Blake says he knows what's he doing and he admires that, there was some pitch problems.  He recovered it at the end, and he would be proud to have him on his team.  Carter picks….  Team Blake!  Blake loves Carter's voice, has an edge to it.  Carter said he felt a connection with Blake.
Kelly says her Achilles heel is still men won't pick her.   Points to herself and says women love this!
Talon Cardon, 18, Odem, UT "Say you won't let go" by James Arthur
He works at a Chinese restaurant.  He gets asked questions about Chinese food.  He bought his first guitar at 12, by 14 he had written 2 songs.  He now travels Utah performing.  He grew up with his Mom but spent more time with his Dad.  When he was 16 his Dad, his police officer was in a bad car accident.  Talon says he scared him to death and he couldn't imagine his life without his Dad.  He chose the song for the emotion in it.  He's wearing a yellow jacket and he's very nervous at first.  The audience really likes it.  He has a charm about him while he's singing.  He sounds like he's forcing it a bit as no one turns.  And once again a last second chair turn at the bell by John.  Adam tells him he's talented, and that John can help him with the little things he heard.  Kelly says he couldn't be with a better coach.  John says welcome to Team Legend, he's happy to have him.  Says he started off a little slow and he delivered at the end.  Talon is Team John!  John says Talon has a special voice, cool tone, great range.
Bebe Rexha tells us there will be new Lay's potato chip flavors to go along with the Comeback Stage.
A Voice first!! Patrick & Ruby McAloon Barrington, RI
