Big applause, everyone!

8
00:00:19,497 --> 00:00:21,021
I'm pretty stoked,
because for the first time,

9
00:00:21,238 --> 00:00:23,674
it's all about the actual
studio audience to vote.

10
00:00:23,675 --> 00:00:26,112
And our audience is special.
We've got super fans.

11
00:00:26,113 --> 00:00:28,680
I've been watching the show
since Season 1!

"Voice" alumni here.

They know what it's like.

15
00:00:34,947 --> 00:00:36,253
They know the pressure
of this situation.

16
00:00:36,471 --> 00:00:38,125
It's a responsibility
to not take lightly.

17
00:00:38,342 --> 00:00:40,039
This is
very difficult.

18
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:41,911
Like, some of these artists are
going to be selling out arenas.

19
00:00:42,085 --> 00:00:43,826
I'm happy it's out
of my hands.

20
00:00:44,044 --> 00:00:45,480
It's in the hands of people
in the audience who are going

21
00:00:45,697 --> 00:00:47,482
to see this happen in real time.
It's really cool.

22
00:00:47,699 --> 00:00:49,832
Tonight,
the stakes are higher than ever,

23
00:00:50,050 --> 00:00:52,095
so we had to invite
somebody who knows

24
00:00:52,313 --> 00:00:54,663
how to play high stakes games.

25
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,796

for making an opportunity
for me to get to the top nine.

75
00:02:58,613 --> 00:03:00,919
I've been on this journey
since I was 14 years old.

76
00:03:01,137 --> 00:03:03,139
My dad is a pastor.
Grew up in church,

77
00:03:03,313 --> 00:03:07,404
but my mom, she let me
embrace loving that RandB music.

78
00:03:07,622 --> 00:03:09,013
Yeah.
Alright, alright.

79
00:03:09,014 --> 00:03:11,452
And before you knew it,
she started that fire

80
00:03:11,669 --> 00:03:12,975

Yeah!
Yes.

188
00:08:35,602 --> 00:08:36,733
That's how we're gonna
get started tonight.

189
00:08:36,951 --> 00:08:38,082
My lord.

190
00:08:38,300 --> 00:08:39,910
Adam, let's start
with you, buddy.

191
00:08:40,128 --> 00:08:43,435
KJ. You've grown on me so much
as the show has progressed.

192
00:08:43,610 --> 00:08:46,394
What I loved was
the major runs.

193
00:08:46,395 --> 00:08:48,266
Like, I've never heard
anyone approach it like that.

194
00:08:48,484 --> 00:08:51,748
And so just creatively speaking,
I really love all that.

195
00:08:51,966 --> 00:08:53,141
And you just did
a great job, man.

196
00:08:53,358 --> 00:08:54,664
Thank you.
Thank you so much.

197
00:08:54,882 --> 00:08:56,405
Kelly.
Thank you so much.

198
00:08:56,579 --> 00:08:59,800
That's one hell of a start, man.
That was so incredible.

199
00:09:00,017 --> 00:09:04,021
You have that preacher-esque
power to you that I love.

200
00:09:04,239 --> 00:09:07,547
You just naturally have
the gift of, like, inspiration.

201
00:09:07,721 --> 00:09:08,809
Well done, KJ.

202
00:09:09,026 --> 00:09:10,550
Thank you.
John?

203
00:09:10,724 --> 00:09:13,161
You've been doing
all secular music on the show,

204
00:09:13,378 --> 00:09:16,991
but you can just feel
the spirit in you.

205
00:09:17,208 --> 00:09:19,994
And I feel like you're growing
in your own confidence

206
00:09:20,211 --> 00:09:22,170
and taking up space on stage,

207
00:09:22,387 --> 00:09:25,086
and America is getting
to see you blossom

208
00:09:25,303 --> 00:09:27,567
into the kind of artist
you're supposed to be.

209
00:09:27,741 --> 00:09:29,045
Thank you.

210
00:09:29,046 --> 00:09:32,049
How about another hand
for KJ Willis?

211
00:09:32,267 --> 00:09:33,660
Yes.

212
00:09:33,877 --> 00:09:35,618
KJ was the perfect person
to start this show,

213
00:09:35,836 --> 00:09:38,186
because he just made us excited
about the whole night.

214
00:09:38,403 --> 00:09:39,927
The studio audience
is going to be voting,

215
00:09:40,144 --> 00:09:42,277
and they are feeling the energy
from the performance.

216
00:09:42,494 --> 00:09:44,540
So I'm pretty stoked to see
how it goes.

217
00:09:44,714 --> 00:09:47,238
Go, KJ!KJ: The stakes are super high.

218
00:09:47,456 --> 00:09:49,588
It's a lot of pressure to know
that the audience is voting.

219
00:09:49,589 --> 00:09:51,591
If you hang in there
and you give the best,

220
00:09:51,808 --> 00:09:53,069
they'll know what to do.

221
00:09:53,070 --> 00:09:54,898
Straight ahead,
our semifinals continue

222
00:09:55,116 --> 00:09:58,467
with a passionate Sam Smith song
from Mikenley.

223
00:09:58,641 --> 00:09:59,729
And then still to come,

224
00:09:59,947 --> 00:10:02,427
big performances
from Jeremy and Syd.

of the Battle of Champions.

229
00:10:19,706 --> 00:10:21,490
Only four artists will move
on to next week.

230
00:10:21,664 --> 00:10:23,623
We've got some "Voice"
alum here.

Vicci, you were finalists.

234
00:10:32,936 --> 00:10:34,590
What advice do you have
for our artists tonight?

235
00:10:34,764 --> 00:10:37,114
You know, I feel like what
the world needs now is healing.

236
00:10:37,332 --> 00:10:39,073
So if you're going to come,
bring us to church,

237
00:10:39,290 --> 00:10:41,553
you know? Take us to church
and heal all of us.

238
00:10:41,728 --> 00:10:43,991
Heal the audience,
and we'll let you go forward.

239
00:10:44,208 --> 00:10:46,776
Oh, great advice. I think we're
off to a good start with that.

240
00:10:46,994 --> 00:10:48,255
Alright. Let's continue now

241
00:10:48,256 --> 00:10:50,388
with Team Kelly's pop singer
from Indiana

242
00:10:50,606 --> 00:10:51,999
who's showing
a more emotional side.

243
00:10:52,216 --> 00:10:54,175
Here's more from
Mikenley Brown.

244
00:10:55,437 --> 00:10:57,308
During the All Star show,
I had someone, like, come

245
00:10:57,526 --> 00:10:59,180
all the way across the stage
and put lipstick on me.

246
00:10:59,397 --> 00:11:01,443
I was like, I feel
a little too bougie for--

247
00:11:01,661 --> 00:11:03,575
to be asking for that.

248
00:11:03,750 --> 00:11:06,796
It's crazy that I went
from delivering people's food

249
00:11:07,014 --> 00:11:10,234
to now singing on stage
for the world to see.

Mikenley, I don't think
there's anyone like you.

252
00:11:16,937 --> 00:11:18,808
Thank you.
Even down to, like,
your wardrobe.

253
00:11:19,026 --> 00:11:20,549
You came out here, and
I was like, I want that sweater.

254
00:11:20,723 --> 00:11:21,768
I was like--

255
00:11:21,985 --> 00:11:23,160
One of the biggest things

256
00:11:23,378 --> 00:11:26,424
that Kelly has taught me
is to be myself.

257
00:11:26,642 --> 00:11:28,296
You and your cute sweaters.

258
00:11:28,513 --> 00:11:31,342
I definitely feel empowered, but
I feel like I have to deliver

259
00:11:31,560 --> 00:11:34,215
the performance of my life
to get into the finale,

260
00:11:34,432 --> 00:11:37,522

It's the semifinals, right?

263
00:11:41,701 --> 00:11:43,137

But also,
she definitely makes it her own.

00:12:25,222 --> 00:12:26,876
Yeah.
Your runs are really cool,

282

but they're everywhere.
Like, even on like "hurts,"

283
00:12:28,443 --> 00:12:30,010
you don't need
to do a run there.

284
00:12:30,227 --> 00:12:31,881
Look, we're voting differently
this season. These are

285
00:12:32,099 --> 00:12:33,753
the people in the audience
that are voting if you make it

286
00:12:33,970 --> 00:12:35,755
through or not. So you've
got to be able to reach them.

287
00:12:35,929 --> 00:12:37,669
It's hard to reach them
if you're doing runs
the whole time.

288

Don't take them all out.

289
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,021
But just like 3/4
of what you were doing.

290
00:12:41,238 --> 00:12:42,762
Okay, cool.
If she just dials it back

291
00:12:42,936 --> 00:12:44,764
a tiny bit,
and then it creates more space

292
00:12:44,938 --> 00:12:46,548
for it to really be able
to sit with the song

293
00:12:46,766 --> 00:12:48,245
and be in the song with her.
Instead of

294
00:12:48,463 --> 00:12:50,334
her singing at people,
they become a part of it.

00:15:55,041 --> 00:15:57,478
I think you might have
snuck up on people

340
00:15:57,695 --> 00:16:00,785
and shown them something
that they may not have expected.

341
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,701
And that was so well done.
I absolutely loved it.

342
00:16:03,919 --> 00:16:05,529
Thank you so much.
Thank you, John. Adam?

343
00:16:05,747 --> 00:16:07,749
I'll just add on
to what Mr. Legend was saying.

344
00:16:07,967 --> 00:16:09,577
I think this was definitely
your best performance.

345
00:16:09,794 --> 00:16:11,840
It was a lot more of what we,
I think, all loved about you

346
00:16:12,014 --> 00:16:13,624
when we first turned around
for you in the blinds.

347
00:16:13,842 --> 00:16:16,279
It was really, really beautiful
and definitely snuck up.

348
00:16:16,497 --> 00:16:18,499
I'm using all
of his sound bites. Sorry.

349
00:16:18,716 --> 00:16:20,370
I say awesome things.
You can say them, too.

350
00:16:20,588 --> 00:16:22,198
You do, you do.
So I'm basically

351
00:16:22,416 --> 00:16:23,765
just repeating what he said.
It's okay.

352
00:16:23,983 --> 00:16:25,636
So I'll try to find
one thing he didn't say,

353
00:16:25,854 --> 00:16:27,987
which is your head voice
into your falsetto,

354
00:16:28,161 --> 00:16:31,773
the way you dance in there
is your superpower as a singer.

355
00:16:31,991 --> 00:16:33,122
It's so beautiful.

356
00:16:33,340 --> 00:16:34,732
Thank you.

357
00:16:34,950 --> 00:16:36,560
Now let's hear what
your coach thinks. Kelly?

358
00:16:36,778 --> 00:16:38,388
Believability is
a huge thing for me,

359
00:16:38,606 --> 00:16:40,782
because a lot of people come out
here and sing great songs,

360
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:42,740
but I don't buy it.
And I buy it from you.

361
00:16:42,958 --> 00:16:44,264
Thank you.
It's one of those things, too,

362
00:16:44,481 --> 00:16:46,135
where I'm impressed by you
in rehearsals.

363
00:16:46,353 --> 00:16:48,050
I'm telling you what. She
walked in, she did like that,

364
00:16:48,268 --> 00:16:50,052
and I was like, I know I'm
supposed to say something here.

365
00:16:50,270 --> 00:16:51,749
I did say something, though,

366
00:16:51,967 --> 00:16:53,925
because you were doing
those incredible runs,

367
00:16:54,100 --> 00:16:57,016
and I love that you held back
on some of the runs,

368
00:16:57,190 --> 00:16:58,887
and you made them more special.
It was so perfect.

369
00:16:59,061 --> 00:17:00,062
Thank you.
So good.

370
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:01,455
Good job.
Thank you so much.

371
00:17:01,672 --> 00:17:02,934
High praise
from the coaching panel.

372
00:17:03,109 --> 00:17:05,459
Give it up for Mikenley Brown, everybody.

373
00:17:07,243 --> 00:17:09,854
You always look cool, too.

374
00:17:10,029 --> 00:17:11,465
I hadn't really seen
Mikenley be

375
00:17:11,682 --> 00:17:13,771
super competitive until tonight.

376
00:17:13,989 --> 00:17:15,904
I think performing
in front of these other artists,

377
00:17:16,078 --> 00:17:18,776
she knew they would be able
to catch if she went off key.

378
00:17:18,994 --> 00:17:21,214
And I think it really
brought out her A-game.

379
00:17:21,431 --> 00:17:22,824
Great job. Yes.
Thank you so much.

380
00:17:23,042 --> 00:17:24,652
This is her best performance
on the show,

381
00:17:24,869 --> 00:17:27,089
so hopefully that was enough
to get her to the finals.

382
00:17:27,307 --> 00:17:28,656
Yo, that was great, great.
It was great.

383
00:17:28,873 --> 00:17:30,352
I know. She's so cool.

384
00:17:30,353 --> 00:17:32,007
That was perfect execution,
too, like every note.

385
00:17:32,181 --> 00:17:33,878
Yeah.
And you know what?

386
00:17:34,053 --> 00:17:35,750
She's also the kind of singer
that I think the audience,

387
00:17:35,967 --> 00:17:37,099
especially the people
who are voting,

388
00:17:37,317 --> 00:17:39,058

Yeah.

You know, in the top four,
you get to sing three songs.

407
00:18:24,103 --> 00:18:27,367
And I would love, love, love
to do a duet with Adam.

408
00:18:27,584 --> 00:18:30,152
Granted, I did a little duet
with John at the beginning.

409
00:18:30,370 --> 00:18:34,765
That was very special. I'm
so grateful for this experience.

Babyface, "Whip Appeal."

Babyface. Come on.

415
00:18:45,385 --> 00:18:47,213
It's like the soundtrack
to my life.

416
00:18:47,430 --> 00:18:49,476
When you're traveling
as a background vocalist,

417
00:18:49,693 --> 00:18:51,869
you get to see so many artists,

418
00:18:52,087 --> 00:18:56,004
and I got a chance to meet
Babyface at the BET Honors.

419
00:18:56,178 --> 00:18:57,397
That inspired me so much

420
00:18:57,614 --> 00:18:59,442
that I moved to L.A.
to pursue music.

421
00:18:59,660 --> 00:19:03,446
My niche is those classic love
songs, and this is one of them.

he seems super out of his head,

430
00:19:25,555 --> 00:19:27,818
singing like he knows he can,
doing a great song.

431
00:19:28,036 --> 00:19:29,777
You talk about being
a background singer, right?

432
00:19:29,994 --> 00:19:31,213

singing with somebody else.

you're standing up there

434

Yeah.

That would hurt.

I almost--
I almost got a little teary eyed

448
00:19:59,372 --> 00:20:02,201
when he said that,
because as a background singer,

449
00:20:02,375 --> 00:20:05,116
you're not in the limelight
to get a lot of compliments.

450
00:20:05,291 --> 00:20:06,596
Yo, that was--
that was incredible.

Kelly,
we'll start with you.

00:23:07,864 --> 00:23:10,867
Jeremy, you make it look so
easy, starting out so smooth,

00:23:18,658 --> 00:23:20,311
not only your voice,
but your energy.

507
00:23:20,486 --> 00:23:23,271
And the thing is,
is you're so humble about it,

508
00:23:23,445 --> 00:23:27,971
and it's almost a shame that
you make it look so effortless,

509
00:23:28,189 --> 00:23:29,930
'cause it looks like you were
just like, walked out

510
00:23:30,147 --> 00:23:32,149
of your damn house and you're
like, so I think I'll do this.

511
00:23:32,367 --> 00:23:34,238
But I really want people
to know, like,

512
00:23:34,413 --> 00:23:36,676
what you're doing
is incredibly difficult.

513
00:23:36,893 --> 00:23:38,329
It's a beautiful thing
to behold.

514
00:23:38,504 --> 00:23:40,419
It literally is like
being at an award show.

515
00:23:40,593 --> 00:23:42,421
Thank you so much.
Thank you.

516
00:23:42,638 --> 00:23:44,378
John.

517
00:23:44,379 --> 00:23:46,512
This is my favorite performance
of yours in this competition.

518
00:23:46,729 --> 00:23:49,384
I feel like everybody's
stepping up to new levels today,

519
00:23:49,558 --> 00:23:51,430
which is the right time
to do it, by the way,

520
00:23:51,647 --> 00:23:54,563
because it showed all the things
that you have in your toolbox.

521
00:23:54,781 --> 00:23:56,435
You were smooth
and perfect

522
00:23:56,609 --> 00:23:58,524
and pristine and clean
at the beginning,

523
00:23:58,741 --> 00:24:01,744
but then you growled
and were passionate by the end,

524
00:24:01,962 --> 00:24:04,443
and I felt like it was a
really well rounded performance.

525
00:24:04,617 --> 00:24:06,053
Thank you so much.
Thank you.

526
00:24:06,270 --> 00:24:08,185
And your coach, Adam.

527
00:24:08,403 --> 00:24:10,057
Jeremy,
I feel like you accomplished

528
00:24:10,274 --> 00:24:11,928
in this performance,
in my mind,

529
00:24:12,146 --> 00:24:14,278
exactly what you set out
to come here and do.

530
00:24:14,453 --> 00:24:16,237
You had to kind of
like get out of your head

531
00:24:16,455 --> 00:24:19,370
and be that visceral singer
that does growl

532
00:24:19,545 --> 00:24:22,852
and does do that big moment that
lets it go and unleashes it all.

533
00:24:23,070 --> 00:24:25,986
And I just love that
we finally got to this place,

534
00:24:26,203 --> 00:24:27,596
because this is the
most important part,

535
00:24:27,814 --> 00:24:30,556
I think, for you.
I'm just so proud of you, man.

536
00:24:30,773 --> 00:24:32,645
How about another hand
for Jeremy Keith?
Thank you so much.

537
00:24:32,862 --> 00:24:34,908
Yeah, Jeremy.
Whoo!

538
00:24:35,125 --> 00:24:38,607
I'm so proud of Jeremy.
He really delivered tonight.

539
00:24:38,825 --> 00:24:40,000
It's now the audience's choice,

540
00:24:40,217 --> 00:24:41,741
so he only has to
hope for the best.

541
00:24:41,958 --> 00:24:43,481
Walking back in here,

542
00:24:43,482 --> 00:24:44,874
although things look different
from when I was here,

543
00:24:45,092 --> 00:24:47,094
it is definitely bringing back
all the feels.

544
00:24:47,311 --> 00:24:49,400
My mind is blown
with the performances

545
00:24:49,575 --> 00:24:51,620
and the amount of talent that
has been on this stage so far.

546
00:24:51,838 --> 00:24:54,014
I can't even. Like, you think
you're at the peak,

547
00:24:54,231 --> 00:24:55,581
and then the next person
comes up.

548
00:24:55,798 --> 00:24:58,018
It's heavy talent right now.
I ain't gonna lie.

549
00:24:58,235 --> 00:25:00,194
It's gonna be hard
to choose the winner for sure.

550
00:25:00,411 --> 00:25:01,630

It's definitely going to be
a hard judge.

569
00:25:45,456 --> 00:25:46,675
I am so enjoying this.

570
00:25:46,893 --> 00:25:48,677
We just get to sit here
and watch them sing.

571
00:25:48,895 --> 00:25:50,810
We don't have to even decide
who goes to the next round.

572
00:25:51,027 --> 00:25:52,551
I love peers voting.
I absolutely love that.

573
00:25:52,768 --> 00:25:54,204
I think that's genius,
'cause they know what's up,

574
00:25:54,422 --> 00:25:55,554
they know what it takes,
and they're in the room,

575
00:25:55,728 --> 00:25:57,294
which is hugely important.

576
00:25:57,512 --> 00:26:00,080
I truly believe our alumni
are going to be really fair,

577
00:26:00,297 --> 00:26:01,560
and they're going to do
what's right for the music

578
00:26:01,734 --> 00:26:02,909
and right for the artists...

579
00:26:03,126 --> 00:26:04,040
'Cause they've been
in their shoes.

580
00:26:04,258 --> 00:26:05,693
...and pick the best person.

581
00:26:05,694 --> 00:26:06,956
Hopefully we'll get
some really good finalists.

582
00:26:07,174 --> 00:26:08,567
It must be really hard
for you guys,

583
00:26:08,784 --> 00:26:09,959
'cause only one of your people
move through.

584
00:26:10,177 --> 00:26:11,439
You don't understand
our plight.

585
00:26:11,613 --> 00:26:12,788
Yeah. You wouldn't know.
I wouldn't know.

586
00:26:13,006 --> 00:26:14,181
Let the chips fall
as they may.

587
00:26:14,398 --> 00:26:15,617
That's right.

588
00:26:16,662 --> 00:26:18,489
Alright. We got
a few more performances.

589
00:26:22,798 --> 00:26:24,887
I did not expect
to get this far,

590
00:26:25,105 --> 00:26:29,588
so just being here
is an absolute blessing, so...

591
00:26:29,762 --> 00:26:32,068
My dad says
when you pay for experience,

592
00:26:32,286 --> 00:26:34,114
you should always
keep the receipt.

593
00:26:34,331 --> 00:26:35,811
It's too expensive
to pay for twice.

594
00:26:36,029 --> 00:26:37,204
I love that.

595
00:26:37,421 --> 00:26:40,729
It feels so cool
to be in the semifinals.

596
00:26:40,947 --> 00:26:42,339
It's very humbling knowing

597
00:26:42,557 --> 00:26:44,080
that there's so many
talented people around me,

598
00:26:44,298 --> 00:26:45,778
and I get to be one of them.

599
00:26:45,995 --> 00:26:48,955
I always expected to be
in the semifinals with you.

600
00:26:49,172 --> 00:26:52,785
You've consistently been
a stellar vocalist.

601
00:26:53,002 --> 00:26:54,830
But I want us
to think about the feedback

602
00:26:55,048 --> 00:26:56,876
we got in the last round.

603
00:26:57,093 --> 00:26:59,008
You don't have that part
that captivates you

604
00:26:59,226 --> 00:27:01,532
that makes me want to cry,
which you are capable of.

605
00:27:01,707 --> 00:27:03,404
That's the only connection
I'm missing from you.

606
00:27:03,622 --> 00:27:06,407
Everybody knows
how incredible you are.

607
00:27:06,625 --> 00:27:07,800
Question is, are you able

608
00:27:08,017 --> 00:27:10,150
to speak to their hearts?
Yeah.

609
00:27:10,367 --> 00:27:13,196
Your mission now is
not to be the best singer.

610
00:27:13,414 --> 00:27:17,287
It's to be a great,
meaningful, impactful artist.

611
00:27:17,505 --> 00:27:18,767
Yeah.
It's scary for me

612
00:27:18,985 --> 00:27:21,422
to have
that emotional connection

613
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:23,554
for fear of being rejected.

614
00:27:23,729 --> 00:27:25,948
When my parents got divorced,
I was 10, 11.

615
00:27:26,166 --> 00:27:27,863
I feel like that's
where it stemmed.

616
00:27:28,081 --> 00:27:31,127
I unfortunately do not have
a relationship with my father,

617
00:27:31,345 --> 00:27:34,914
and that has definitely
bled into my music.

618
00:27:35,131 --> 00:27:36,393
And that's a real problem,

619
00:27:36,611 --> 00:27:38,613
because I want to be
vulnerable on stage.

620
00:27:38,787 --> 00:27:43,836
So for this round, I'm excited
to finally let go and do that.

That is Syd Millevoi,
ladies and gentlemen,

691
00:31:54,651 --> 00:31:58,917
in our top nine semifinals
trying to make it to the finals.

692
00:31:59,091 --> 00:32:00,396
Yes.

693
00:32:00,614 --> 00:32:01,920
Nice work.
Alright, coaches.

694
00:32:02,094 --> 00:32:03,399
Adam, we'll start with you.

695
00:32:03,617 --> 00:32:07,664
Syd, man, you got range, girl.
Like, damn.

696
00:32:07,882 --> 00:32:09,840
Trying to get like you.
I think-- Yeah.

697
00:32:10,015 --> 00:32:12,017
I don't know.
A little more range than I do.

698
00:32:12,234 --> 00:32:13,888
You know, I think
the thing was with you

699
00:32:14,062 --> 00:32:15,498
is, like,
you came in hot.

700
00:32:15,716 --> 00:32:17,413
You know, seemed
sometimes a little too perfect.

701
00:32:17,631 --> 00:32:20,590
We wanted it to be a little
more kind of in the moment,

702
00:32:20,808 --> 00:32:22,853
and we wanted to feel
more passion.

703
00:32:23,028 --> 00:32:24,377
And you definitely
took the notes.

704
00:32:24,594 --> 00:32:27,206
So I applaud you
making that effort

705
00:32:27,423 --> 00:32:29,948
to really like make it something
that spoke from your heart.

706
00:32:30,165 --> 00:32:32,037
So I really think you did
an amazing job.

707
00:32:32,254 --> 00:32:33,864
Kelly.

708
00:32:34,039 --> 00:32:36,911
Syd, you know from the blinds,
my team was already full,

709
00:32:37,085 --> 00:32:40,001
and I-I'm still like
holding a grudge,

710
00:32:40,219 --> 00:32:42,395
um, because I just--
I'm a huge fan of your voice.

711
00:32:42,612 --> 00:32:43,961
I think that you are incredible

712
00:32:43,962 --> 00:32:46,094
and one of my favorites
of the whole season.

713
00:32:46,312 --> 00:32:48,357
I cannot wait to see
what you do after the show,

714
00:32:48,575 --> 00:32:52,579
regardless of what happens here,
because you have such a gift.

715
00:32:52,796 --> 00:32:54,581
Thank you, Coach.
John?

716
00:32:54,798 --> 00:32:56,496
This was my favorite
performance of yours,

717
00:32:56,713 --> 00:33:00,674
because I really did love
how soulful you were.

718
00:33:00,891 --> 00:33:02,502
We talked about
how the song was stripped down,

719
00:33:02,719 --> 00:33:05,461
but it wasn't a sad song.
It's like a song about seduction

720
00:33:05,679 --> 00:33:08,073
and like, asserting her power
as a woman

721
00:33:08,290 --> 00:33:10,031
to like--
to make the move, you know?

722
00:33:10,249 --> 00:33:14,514
And I really loved how you
embraced the energy of the song.

723
00:33:14,731 --> 00:33:17,082
You know, this show is a show
that celebrates the voice,

724
00:33:17,299 --> 00:33:20,824
and you just have a magnificent
instrument as a vocalist.

725
00:33:20,999 --> 00:33:23,436
And I thought you deployed it
really beautifully today.

726
00:33:23,653 --> 00:33:25,525
So, wonderful
performance, Syd.

727
00:33:25,742 --> 00:33:28,441
How about another hand
for Syd Millevoi, everybody?

728
00:33:30,138 --> 00:33:31,618
Oh,
I loved this performance by Syd,

729
00:33:31,835 --> 00:33:34,403
because I feel like
she's tapping into the artist

730
00:33:34,621 --> 00:33:36,188
and not just the singer.

731
00:33:36,405 --> 00:33:38,146
Beautiful.
She's getting better and better.

732
00:33:38,364 --> 00:33:40,235
And she is so remarkably gifted.

733
00:33:40,453 --> 00:33:42,107
I could see her
making the finale.

734
00:33:42,324 --> 00:33:43,891
I love her voice.
When she hit that big note

735
00:33:44,065 --> 00:33:45,327
at the end, I'm like, yeah,
that's where she lives,

736
00:33:45,545 --> 00:33:47,112
and that's where she's the best.
I know.

737
00:33:47,329 --> 00:33:48,678

made up of our friends,
there are alumni,

we have some "Voice"
super fans here.

743
00:34:07,262 --> 00:34:09,047
They've got some very difficult
decisions to make later tonight.

744
00:34:09,264 --> 00:34:12,702
We got Joshua Vacanti here,
Jershika Maple, Nini Iris,

745
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:15,966
Matthew Schuler right there,
the Swon Brothers here.

746
00:34:16,141 --> 00:34:17,751
We'll continue now
with an inspiring song

747
00:34:17,968 --> 00:34:20,449
by the country rocker
from Kentucky from Team Adam.

748
00:34:20,667 --> 00:34:22,712
Here's more
on Jared Shoemaker.

749
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,151
So, top three.
Top three.

750
00:34:26,368 --> 00:34:28,066
How you feeling?
Feeling good.

751
00:34:28,240 --> 00:34:30,807
This is the number one song that
I wanted to sing when I started,

752
00:34:31,025 --> 00:34:33,593
so, I'm singing "Soulshine"
by the Allman Brothers Band.

753
00:34:33,810 --> 00:34:35,943
First off, it's Southern rock,
which is my bread and butter.

754
00:34:36,117 --> 00:34:37,423
I mean,
that's what I love to do.

755
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:39,164
I love the Lynyrd Skynyrd,
the Allman Brothers,

756
00:34:39,381 --> 00:34:41,862
and it's got soul, man.
You know, it speaks about

757
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:43,733
finding light
where there is none,

758
00:34:43,951 --> 00:34:45,866
you know, when you feel lost
and you got nothing to live for,

759
00:34:46,084 --> 00:34:47,563
and, you know, you find
the light in your soul.

760
00:34:47,781 --> 00:34:49,174
This song is perfect
for the semifinals

761
00:34:49,391 --> 00:34:51,350
'cause I really get to put
my heart and soul

762
00:34:51,567 --> 00:34:53,221
out on the-- on the stage.

763
00:34:53,439 --> 00:34:56,268
I was in the Navy
from 2012 to 2016.

764
00:34:56,485 --> 00:34:59,097
Spending so many months at sea,
it'll wear on you.

765
00:34:59,314 --> 00:35:01,011
When I was gone for months
at a time,

766
00:35:01,186 --> 00:35:02,448
I could always give
my dad a call,

767
00:35:02,665 --> 00:35:03,753
and he was really
my guiding light,

768
00:35:03,971 --> 00:35:05,277
because he's been through that.

769
00:35:05,494 --> 00:35:06,974
You know, he's been
on multiple deployments.

770
00:35:07,148 --> 00:35:09,716

beautiful tone with that
Southern rock kind of tinge.

He's his own man,

787
00:35:45,839 --> 00:35:48,189
It's like win or lose, like,

really great confidence to

you have to belt a little more.

793
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:02,812
I want that to feel as proud

higher notes.

All of the most important things
are in place,

you to do. You're gonna kill it.

00:39:13,916 --> 00:39:15,395
ooh, I love that song.
It's a big song.

839
00:39:15,396 --> 00:39:18,704
I do not agree, though.
Moonshine is pretty good.

840
00:39:18,921 --> 00:39:20,445
Come on.
Not better than soulshine.

841
00:39:20,662 --> 00:39:22,751
You just haven't had
great moonshine, Jared.

842
00:39:22,969 --> 00:39:25,232
Come to Kentucky
and find out.

843
00:39:25,406 --> 00:39:26,929
We got to see you
in a different space,

844
00:39:27,147 --> 00:39:28,322
in a different light tonight.

845
00:39:28,496 --> 00:39:30,716
And the strategy of that
is so important.

846
00:39:30,933 --> 00:39:32,457
I think there's a couple of you,
Lucas, as well,

847
00:39:32,674 --> 00:39:34,720
I feel like y'all every week
kind of impressed me more

848
00:39:34,937 --> 00:39:36,504
and did something
a little different.

849
00:39:36,722 --> 00:39:38,506
And that's so important
in a show like this. Great job.

850
00:39:38,724 --> 00:39:41,596
Thank you, Kel.
Good call. John.

851
00:39:41,814 --> 00:39:43,859
The mark of a good song
in a competition like this

852
00:39:44,077 --> 00:39:45,470
is if someone
who doesn't know the song

853
00:39:45,687 --> 00:39:47,689
is immediately like,
oh, I love that song.

854
00:39:47,907 --> 00:39:49,299
It was compelling,

855
00:39:49,474 --> 00:39:51,389
and it really did show
a different side of you.

856
00:39:51,606 --> 00:39:52,477
It was really good.

857
00:39:52,694 --> 00:39:53,695
Thank you so much, Jared.

858
00:39:53,913 --> 00:39:55,305
Thank you.

859
00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:56,698
Alright.
Now your coach, Adam.

860
00:39:56,916 --> 00:39:58,483
I don't know
what it is, man,

861
00:39:58,700 --> 00:40:00,398
but you're like a star.
Like when you walk out here,

862
00:40:00,572 --> 00:40:01,877
I'm like, this guy's important.
I gotta listen to this guy.

863
00:40:02,095 --> 00:40:04,184
Something kind of,
like, iconic about you.

864
00:40:04,402 --> 00:40:06,186
It's the hair.
It's the hair. It's the hat.

865
00:40:06,404 --> 00:40:08,144
It's the vibe. It's the smile.
The beard game is solid, too.

866
00:40:08,362 --> 00:40:10,233
The dude is a stud.

867
00:40:10,408 --> 00:40:12,192
And then you have
this beautiful voice,

868
00:40:12,410 --> 00:40:14,281
and it's not the voice
you're necessarily expecting

869
00:40:14,455 --> 00:40:17,415
because you do bridge
between rock 'n' roll, country.

870
00:40:17,632 --> 00:40:18,981
There's a hybrid going on,
and--

871
00:40:19,199 --> 00:40:21,419
It's a classic.
Yeah, it really is very classic.

872
00:40:21,636 --> 00:40:24,857
I love that you also are
who you are very unabashedly

873
00:40:25,074 --> 00:40:26,772
and also very consistently.

874
00:40:26,989 --> 00:40:28,426
I think there is
so much promise in you

875
00:40:28,643 --> 00:40:30,166
for a really
wonderful career.

876
00:40:30,384 --> 00:40:33,431
And I'm once again
very proud of you, man, so...

877
00:40:33,605 --> 00:40:35,694
How about another hand
for Jared Shoemaker?

878
00:40:35,911 --> 00:40:37,347
Jared!

879
00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:43,179
Jared, he's my old standby.
He's just like, he's so--

880
00:40:43,397 --> 00:40:45,007
Captain Consistent,
I like to call him.

881
00:40:45,225 --> 00:40:47,227
I'm proud of you, man.
Let's go.

882
00:40:47,445 --> 00:40:50,099
He's a really solid dude.
Great guy.

883
00:40:50,317 --> 00:40:51,971
He knows his lane,
and he's staying in it,

884
00:40:52,188 --> 00:40:53,451
and I love that about him.

885
00:40:53,668 --> 00:40:54,974
Very cool. I like
that everybody's

886
00:40:55,191 --> 00:40:56,454
giving their best today.
Yeah.

887
00:40:56,671 --> 00:40:57,716
They're all making us
look good today.

888
00:40:57,933 --> 00:40:59,282
Yeah.

♪ This is "The Voice" ♪

890
00:41:09,075 --> 00:41:10,424
We are back
with our semifinals

891
00:41:10,598 --> 00:41:12,600
and a big "Voice" reunion
here tonight.

892
00:41:12,818 --> 00:41:15,255
Alums from past seasons
are all here in the audience

893
00:41:15,473 --> 00:41:16,909
with our super fans,

894
00:41:17,126 --> 00:41:19,520
and they will be the ones
to pick the final four.

895
00:41:19,738 --> 00:41:21,566
We'll continue now
with Team Kelly's pop singer

896
00:41:21,783 --> 00:41:24,482
from Missouri, Liv Ciara.

897
00:41:24,699 --> 00:41:26,440
I can't believe
I'm saying it.

898
00:41:26,614 --> 00:41:28,529
I've made it to the semifinal
of "The Voice"

899
00:41:28,747 --> 00:41:31,097
after not getting
a chair turn in Season 28.

900
00:41:31,314 --> 00:41:33,055
I'm going to pick Kelly
as my coach.

901
00:41:33,273 --> 00:41:36,450
It's incredibly crazy
to me that someone with her gift

902
00:41:36,624 --> 00:41:39,888
would not get four chairs,
let alone none.

903
00:41:40,106 --> 00:41:42,064
But maybe it was just
we were supposed to connect.

904
00:41:42,282 --> 00:41:44,763
I have a special guest.
with me today.
Mama!

905
00:41:44,980 --> 00:41:46,504
It was really cool
to see my real mom

906
00:41:46,678 --> 00:41:48,027
and my "Voice" mom
kind of coming together.

907
00:41:48,244 --> 00:41:49,550
How are you?
Good to see you.

908
00:41:49,768 --> 00:41:51,683
My mom sacrificed
a lot for me.

909
00:41:51,900 --> 00:41:53,075
She's put up with me,

910
00:41:53,293 --> 00:41:55,034
and I'm a lot of work,
I must say.

911
00:41:55,251 --> 00:41:57,732
This whole journey
has been so amazing,

912
00:41:57,950 --> 00:41:59,473
and I just have to thank you.

913
00:41:59,647 --> 00:42:03,042
You have no idea the support
that you have given her.

914
00:42:03,259 --> 00:42:04,913
Girl, she just shows up
and does her thing.

915
00:42:05,131 --> 00:42:07,437
That's the best part.
She gets a lot of that from you.

916
00:42:07,612 --> 00:42:09,091
Oh, you are funny.

917
00:42:09,309 --> 00:42:11,529

'cause you're so amazing at it.

918
00:42:11,746 --> 00:42:13,487
Aww.
And so this is just

919
00:42:13,661 --> 00:42:15,010
such an amazing opportunity.

920
00:42:15,228 --> 00:42:16,621
Me and her dad
are so proud of her.

921
00:42:16,838 --> 00:42:18,666
And we're so thankful of you
and everything.

922
00:42:18,884 --> 00:42:21,277
Look at your support system.
You obviously introduced her

923
00:42:21,495 --> 00:42:23,410
- to this song, right?
- I did.

924
00:42:23,584 --> 00:42:25,891
Thank you for introducing her
to some cool music.

925
00:42:26,108 --> 00:42:27,849
I love this version you found.
How'd you find it?

926
00:42:28,067 --> 00:42:29,764
I love searching

927
00:42:29,982 --> 00:42:32,071
for, like, covers of songs
that are just different.

928
00:42:32,288 --> 00:42:34,073
It's just piano
kind of the whole time.

929
00:42:34,290 --> 00:42:36,118

and does it her way

really was fuel for her fire.

944
00:43:18,421 --> 00:43:19,684

946
00:43:21,250 --> 00:43:23,035
I need a minute.
Oh.

947
00:43:23,252 --> 00:43:24,602
I'm gonna be really honest
with you.

948
00:43:24,819 --> 00:43:27,474
At first I was like,
this is a cheesy song.

949
00:43:27,648 --> 00:43:29,476
And you just got me.
Aww.

950
00:43:29,650 --> 00:43:31,913
When I saw Kelly crying,
the realization kind of set in,

951
00:43:32,131 --> 00:43:33,872
like, I really
connected with her.

952
00:43:34,089 --> 00:43:35,613
She really loved
what I did with the song

953
00:43:35,787 --> 00:43:36,875
and the way I delivered it.

954
00:43:37,092 --> 00:43:38,224
You're so special.

955
00:43:38,441 --> 00:43:39,573
I got to give you a hug!

956
00:43:39,747 --> 00:43:41,053
You're so--

957
00:43:41,270 --> 00:43:43,795
It's great, because
I hopefully can feel

958
00:43:44,012 --> 00:43:45,274
that same connection
with the audience.

959
00:43:45,492 --> 00:43:47,799
It's like a little young
Whitney Mariah.

960
00:43:48,016 --> 00:43:50,149
That is so good.
You've got this song down.

961
00:43:50,366 --> 00:43:51,933
Obviously you know
this version down.

962
00:43:52,151 --> 00:43:53,718
I want you to have a good time
while you're on stage.

963
00:43:53,935 --> 00:43:55,633
But also be thinking,
the audience is going to vote

964
00:43:55,850 --> 00:43:57,678
the best two out of three
from my team.

965
00:43:57,896 --> 00:44:00,942
So, you know, try and win them
over. Just to give you an edge,

966
00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:02,509
make sure you're looking
at the audience,

967
00:44:02,683 --> 00:44:05,730
and you are connecting.
'Cause that'll help.

968
00:44:05,947 --> 00:44:08,428
And the fact that you're 16,
and you sing like you sing.

969
00:44:08,646 --> 00:44:10,038
That's crazy.

970
00:44:10,256 --> 00:44:11,997
It's the semifinals.
This is a big deal,

971
00:44:12,214 --> 00:44:14,260
but it's going to be really hard
to beat her this week, I think.

972
00:44:14,477 --> 00:44:16,349
You have really great instincts.
Trust that.

973
00:44:16,566 --> 00:44:17,829
This is a make
or break moment,

974
00:44:18,046 --> 00:44:19,657
and I really want to rise
to the occasion.

975
00:44:19,831 --> 00:44:21,876
I'm not ready to go home,
and I want to end on a high

976
00:44:22,094 --> 00:44:25,271
and maybe bring Kelly a win.

977
00:44:28,883 --> 00:44:30,102
Whoo!

978
00:44:31,494 --> 00:44:33,671

00:44:33,888 --> 00:44:37,065
I like that stance, boo.
She ready.

980
00:44:37,283 --> 00:44:38,676

Thank you.

1015

Alright, let's get our coaches'
comments. John Legend.

1017
00:47:36,549 --> 00:47:40,118
Liv, that was like
a superstar performance.

1018
00:47:41,119 --> 00:47:42,990
Talk about it!

1019
00:47:44,296 --> 00:47:45,863
16.

1020
00:47:46,037 --> 00:47:47,690
That's a good sign.

1021
00:47:47,865 --> 00:47:50,084
You look, you sounded,
you carried yourself

1022
00:47:50,302 --> 00:47:52,565
like you were
supposed to be here,

1023
00:47:52,782 --> 00:47:56,134
and you're supposed to be making
records and playing an arena.

1024
00:47:56,351 --> 00:47:57,613
Beautiful job.

1025
00:47:57,831 --> 00:47:59,398
Adam.

1026
00:47:59,615 --> 00:48:01,879
You know, Liv,
I'm very sad right now.

1027
00:48:03,445 --> 00:48:06,318
My sadness is that
you're not on my team,

1028
00:48:06,535 --> 00:48:08,102
because I think

1029
00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:10,235
that right this moment,
you would win "The Voice."

1030
00:48:10,452 --> 00:48:12,063
If we all decided this
right now.

1031
00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:14,630
Actually, I don't wish
that you would do that,

1032
00:48:14,848 --> 00:48:18,112
'cause, again, I have to remind
myself, you're not on my team.

1033
00:48:18,330 --> 00:48:20,332
I thought maybe I had a good
chance of winning this year,

1034
00:48:20,549 --> 00:48:22,900
and now I'm like,
the chances are still there,

1035
00:48:23,117 --> 00:48:24,858
um, but they're not as good
as they were

1036
00:48:25,032 --> 00:48:26,904
before I saw you do
what you just did.

1037
00:48:27,078 --> 00:48:28,166
I'm a huge fan of yours.

1038
00:48:28,383 --> 00:48:29,428
Thank you.

1039
00:48:29,645 --> 00:48:30,951
Alright.
So far, so good, Liv.

1040
00:48:31,169 --> 00:48:33,562
Let's see what
your coach thinks. Kelly?

1041
00:48:33,780 --> 00:48:35,390
Look, I want to tell everyone
right now,

1042
00:48:35,608 --> 00:48:38,828
I had absolutely zero
to do with any of that.

1043
00:48:39,003 --> 00:48:40,265
Like, she did everything.

1044
00:48:40,482 --> 00:48:43,224
She completely came up
with all of that.

1045
00:48:43,442 --> 00:48:45,444
The a cappella?
I didn't even mention that.

1046
00:48:45,661 --> 00:48:47,707
Every-- Everything.

1047
00:48:47,925 --> 00:48:49,448
If you win this show,
if you don't win the show,

1048
00:48:49,665 --> 00:48:51,667
I'm just so excited
to have been

1049
00:48:51,885 --> 00:48:54,583
a tiny, minuscule
of a participant.

1050
00:48:54,801 --> 00:48:57,108
It's just a beautiful thing
to not only witness

1051
00:48:57,325 --> 00:48:58,674
how amazing you are as a singer,

1052
00:48:58,892 --> 00:49:00,067
but also as a producer.

1053
00:49:00,285 --> 00:49:02,069
I just cannot wait
to see your future.

1054
00:49:02,287 --> 00:49:03,462
It's incredible.

1055
00:49:03,679 --> 00:49:06,160
How about another hand
for Liv Ciara?

1056
00:49:06,378 --> 00:49:07,509
I hope the audience,
you know,

1057
00:49:07,727 --> 00:49:08,946
really is paying
attention tonight.

1058
00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:11,861
That's all I'll say.
She's a beast.

1059
00:49:12,036 --> 00:49:14,038
Like, she's 16,
and she wants that crown, y'all.

1060
00:49:14,255 --> 00:49:16,083
She is coming for it.

1061
00:49:16,301 --> 00:49:18,129
Liv! Whoo!

1062
00:49:18,346 --> 00:49:19,957
Oh, my God, Liv.

1063
00:49:20,131 --> 00:49:24,222
I did not know until today
that Liv might win this show,

1064
00:49:24,439 --> 00:49:25,832
but she might win this show.

1065
00:49:26,006 --> 00:49:27,399
She's trying to win.
I told you!

1066
00:49:27,616 --> 00:49:29,314
I'm so grateful for Kelly.
She believed in me.

1067
00:49:29,531 --> 00:49:30,880
She turned for me.
I did nothing.

1068
00:49:31,055 --> 00:49:32,360
Are you kidding me?
We are like--

1069
00:49:32,578 --> 00:49:33,883
All three of you?!
We're in awe right now.

1070
00:49:34,058 --> 00:49:35,450
Oh, my gosh.

1071
00:49:35,668 --> 00:49:37,235
Liv had a breakout moment.
There's no doubt.

1072
00:49:37,452 --> 00:49:39,715
Liv slid into the front
of this thing tonight for sure.

1073
00:49:39,933 --> 00:49:41,979
She blew everybody away.
This room was floored.

1074
00:49:42,196 --> 00:49:43,806
It was perfect. Beautiful.
Thank you so much!

1075
00:49:43,981 --> 00:49:44,894
Beautiful.

1076
00:49:45,069 --> 00:49:46,200
Let's go, Team Kelly.

1077
00:49:46,418 --> 00:49:48,855
See you potentially
in the finale.

1078
00:49:49,029 --> 00:49:50,335
My goodness.

1079
00:49:50,552 --> 00:49:52,424
Good singing happening today.

1080
00:49:52,641 --> 00:49:55,079
When we come back, Alexia
channels the queen of soul.

give it their all,

1082
00:49:58,517 --> 00:50:00,606

1095
00:50:32,333 --> 00:50:34,118
I think is the best move.

1096
00:50:34,335 --> 00:50:36,337
What's up?
I know. I was like coming over.

1097

having the "Voice" alumni back,

1099
00:50:40,472 --> 00:50:42,039
one, we just love them.

1100
00:50:42,213 --> 00:50:44,171
And two, they know the stakes,
and they've been there.

1101
00:50:44,389 --> 00:50:46,260
Hi.
Hi, Lila. How you doing?

1102
00:50:46,478 --> 00:50:48,045
Good to see you.
Music's sounding so good.

Yes. So good.

00:50:51,439 --> 00:50:53,702
I'm seeing these faces
I haven't seen in 12 years.

1106
00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:55,182
It's good to see you guys.
Good to see you.

1107
00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:57,141
It's all about the fans,
man. They're the ones

1108
00:50:57,358 --> 00:50:59,056
that are voting. And we have
"Voice" alumni in the audience.

1109
00:50:59,273 --> 00:51:01,188
It's super fun, man.
Seeing some familiar faces

1110
00:51:01,406 --> 00:51:03,799
from a lot of years ago
was pretty amazing.

1111
00:51:04,017 --> 00:51:06,411
We'll continue right now
with our semifinal performances

1112
00:51:06,628 --> 00:51:09,501
with a big Aretha Franklin song
by Team Adam's powerhouse

1113
00:51:09,718 --> 00:51:10,719
from Mobile, Alabama.

1114
00:51:10,937 --> 00:51:13,331
Here's more from Alexia Jayy.

1115
00:51:13,548 --> 00:51:15,115
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

1116
00:51:15,333 --> 00:51:19,163
I didn't have
too many expectations

1117
00:51:19,380 --> 00:51:21,469
when I did this.
To be in the semifinals,

1118
00:51:21,687 --> 00:51:24,429
I feel like a superstar
right now.

1119
00:51:24,646 --> 00:51:26,996
I'm a little upset
because you sang Whitney.

1120
00:51:27,171 --> 00:51:28,607
Now you're gonna
sing Aretha.

1121
00:51:28,824 --> 00:51:31,088
I wish you challenged yourself
a little more.

1122
00:51:31,305 --> 00:51:32,698
Alexia's singing
"I Never Loved a Man

1123
00:51:32,915 --> 00:51:35,657
"
by the GOAT, Aretha.

1124
00:51:35,875 --> 00:51:37,006
Damn!

1125
00:51:37,181 --> 00:51:38,312
But this is
where Alexia belongs,

1126
00:51:38,530 --> 00:51:40,184
with these titans.

1127
00:51:40,401 --> 00:51:42,273
A little birdie told me you were
thinking, "Oh, my God.

1128
00:51:42,490 --> 00:51:44,362
I'm doing Aretha,"
freaking out a little bit.

1129
00:51:44,579 --> 00:51:46,277
When you watch Aretha sing,
it would be like

1130
00:51:46,494 --> 00:51:48,670
she was like
doing the dishes.

1131
00:51:48,888 --> 00:51:51,238
She was like on the phone
and be like doing this,

1132
00:51:51,456 --> 00:51:53,110
doing it like it was just--
Nothing.

1133
00:51:53,284 --> 00:51:55,155
That's a good way to calm
yourself down, you know?

1134
00:51:55,373 --> 00:51:58,245
Aretha Franklin
has always been

1135
00:51:58,463 --> 00:52:00,943
one of my biggest influences.

1136
00:52:01,118 --> 00:52:03,729
This song is about genuine love,

1137
00:52:03,946 --> 00:52:07,950
and I connect to it
because of my kids.

1138
00:52:08,125 --> 00:52:11,432
I love, love those babies,

1139
00:52:11,650 --> 00:52:14,131

nobody like that.

You are crazy.

1205
00:56:13,152 --> 00:56:14,936
Our room filled
with "Voice" alum

1206
00:56:15,154 --> 00:56:17,548
and super fans
who will be voting.

1207
00:56:17,765 --> 00:56:19,245
We'll get some comments.
Kelly?

1208
00:56:19,419 --> 00:56:21,160
Look, look, look, look, look.

1209
00:56:21,378 --> 00:56:24,729
I have been looking forward
to this moment for so long.

1210
00:56:24,946 --> 00:56:26,426
I love this song so much.

1211
00:56:26,644 --> 00:56:28,733
It is ingrained in me
since I was very, very young.

1212
00:56:28,950 --> 00:56:31,083
And I'm telling you what,
I don't like anyone singing it,

1213
00:56:31,300 --> 00:56:33,520
and you can sing it
every damn day.

1214
00:56:33,738 --> 00:56:35,783
Like, you are so gifted.

1215
00:56:36,001 --> 00:56:38,046
Thank you, Kelly.
I love the whole thing.

1216
00:56:38,264 --> 00:56:41,093
Everything going on is so cool
and rock 'n' roll

1217
00:56:41,310 --> 00:56:44,488
and bold and femininity,
but so powerful,

1218
00:56:44,705 --> 00:56:46,838
'cause femininity is powerful.
Let's be real.

1219
00:56:47,055 --> 00:56:48,666
Period. Period.

1220
00:56:48,883 --> 00:56:50,885
But I just love you so much.

1221
00:56:51,103 --> 00:56:54,193
How is Adam going to top that?
John.

1222
00:56:54,411 --> 00:56:56,325
Alexia, I just love you
so much.

1223
00:56:56,500 --> 00:56:58,240
I think you're so wonderful.

1224
00:56:58,415 --> 00:57:02,419
You exude so much creative
energy and positive energy.

1225
00:57:02,593 --> 00:57:05,378
You're elegant and cool
at the same time.

1226
00:57:05,552 --> 00:57:07,467
Rock 'n' roll.
Classy and fashionable

1227
00:57:07,685 --> 00:57:09,991
and rock 'n' roll
and soulful.

1228
00:57:10,209 --> 00:57:13,212
You're an artist's artist, and
I absolutely love you, Alexia.

1229
00:57:13,430 --> 00:57:15,214
Thank you so much.

1230
00:57:15,432 --> 00:57:16,694
Coach Adam.

1231
00:57:16,911 --> 00:57:18,130
Hey, Alexia.
Hey.

1232
00:57:18,347 --> 00:57:19,653
I don't know what
I'm supposed to tell you

1233
00:57:19,871 --> 00:57:21,699
because you're, like,
the best singer ever,

1234
00:57:21,916 --> 00:57:22,787
and I love you so much. Like, I
feel like a super fan right now.

1235
00:57:23,004 --> 00:57:24,266
I don't feel like a coach.

1236
00:57:24,441 --> 00:57:25,746
I just feel like a dude
that loves you.

1237
00:57:25,964 --> 00:57:28,445
And you have
this larger than life persona

1238
00:57:28,662 --> 00:57:30,185
that you put out
and that you exude

1239
00:57:30,403 --> 00:57:31,796
when you are
doing your thing.

1240
00:57:32,013 --> 00:57:33,711
And the second you're done,
you go back into

1241
00:57:33,928 --> 00:57:38,542
being like the sweetest,
most humble, thoughtful person.

1242
00:57:38,759 --> 00:57:41,370
So I just love that
juxtaposition because there just

1243
00:57:41,545 --> 00:57:44,852
aren't many people who have all
of these incredible qualities

1244
00:57:45,070 --> 00:57:46,550
as a vocalist, as a person.

1245
00:57:46,767 --> 00:57:48,552
We are all lucky to get to
watch you do what you do,

1246
00:57:48,769 --> 00:57:50,815
and I feel really lucky
to be your coach, so...

1247
00:57:51,032 --> 00:57:52,425
Thank you, Coach.
I appreciate that.

1248
00:57:52,599 --> 00:57:55,080
How about another hand
for Alexia Jayy?

1249
00:57:55,297 --> 00:57:57,125
Alexia might be
winning this thing.

1250
00:57:57,343 --> 00:57:58,953
I don't know.
It's going to be close.

1251
00:57:59,171 --> 00:58:02,566
You are-- Get out of here.
Just get out of here.

1252
00:58:02,783 --> 00:58:04,350
She is a true master.

1253
00:58:04,524 --> 00:58:06,047
I hope the audience sees
what I see in her.

1254
00:58:06,265 --> 00:58:08,615
I think they will.

1255
00:58:08,833 --> 00:58:13,141
Alexia is insane. That-- The--
Period.

1256
00:58:13,359 --> 00:58:16,014
She's just so good.
She is so great.

1257
00:58:16,231 --> 00:58:18,190
I love her. I think she's
so talented. And whatever.

1258
00:58:18,407 --> 00:58:20,627
She's not on my team.
I still love to see her soar.

1259
00:58:20,845 --> 00:58:22,411
I think the biggest factor
in my decision

1260
00:58:22,586 --> 00:58:24,239
is definitely going to be
the authenticity,

1261
00:58:24,457 --> 00:58:25,937
you know, kind of like
Kelly was talking about earlier,

1262
00:58:26,154 --> 00:58:28,548
emotional authenticity,
making people believe it.

1263
00:58:28,766 --> 00:58:30,071
There's so much talent
on this season.

1264
00:58:30,289 --> 00:58:31,682
It's definitely going to be
a hard judge,

1265
00:58:31,899 --> 00:58:34,075

we're all here doing it.

Like this-- we're
going to Willie Nelson.

1270
00:58:48,481 --> 00:58:49,787
Singing Willie Nelson.

1271
00:58:50,004 --> 00:58:52,050
Went from Aretha Franklin
to Willie Nelson.

1272
00:58:52,267 --> 00:58:53,486
Let's do this.

1273
00:58:53,660 --> 00:58:55,923
Oh, that's my face.
It's right there.

1274
00:58:56,141 --> 00:58:58,099
Did y'all separate me over here
because I had more wins?

1275
00:58:58,317 --> 00:58:59,536
Is that why?

1276
00:58:59,753 --> 00:59:01,538
It feels great to be
in the semifinals.

1277
00:59:01,755 --> 00:59:04,236
It's just been
the best experience possible.

1278

I've already made it farther

1299
00:59:59,813 --> 01:00:00,684
and it goes down to one.

1300
01:00:00,901 --> 01:00:02,294

The most important part
in this kind of setting

is literally taking those

1317
01:00:43,509 --> 01:00:45,859
She's really pushed me in
the direction that I want to go

1318

1319
01:00:48,253 --> 01:00:49,602
I'm excited and nervous

that the fans get to vote us
into the finale.

1321
01:00:52,431 --> 01:00:53,650
So when I get on that stage,

1322
01:00:53,867 --> 01:00:55,826
I have to find a way
to fill those spaces

1323
01:00:56,043 --> 01:01:00,004

That is JW Griffin here
in the semis on "The Voice."

1352
01:03:56,441 --> 01:03:58,095
I love it.

1353
01:03:58,312 --> 01:04:00,401
Nice work, J-Dub.
Whoo!

1354
01:04:00,619 --> 01:04:01,663
John,
we'll start with you.

1355
01:04:01,838 --> 01:04:04,318
JW,
it was really lovely,

1356
01:04:04,536 --> 01:04:08,670
that intimacy and heart that
you put into that performance.

1357
01:04:08,845 --> 01:04:11,499
It really gave us a chance
to really appreciate

1358
01:04:11,717 --> 01:04:13,023
the texture of your voice.

1359
01:04:13,240 --> 01:04:14,807
It was so enjoyable
to listen to

1360
01:04:14,981 --> 01:04:16,374
and I feel like we needed
that tonight.

1361
01:04:16,591 --> 01:04:17,636
Thank you, J-Dub.
Thank you so much.

1362
01:04:17,854 --> 01:04:19,203
Adam.

1363
01:04:19,420 --> 01:04:21,596
J-Dub, I just can't wait
till you make a record

1364
01:04:21,814 --> 01:04:24,077
because there's so much
about what makes a voice great

1365
01:04:24,295 --> 01:04:25,644
that is not so overt.

1366
01:04:25,862 --> 01:04:27,864
And I think
that you really exemplify that.

1367
01:04:28,081 --> 01:04:30,040
You really do fly the flag
at this point

1368
01:04:30,257 --> 01:04:32,694
for that voice that has a lot
of subtlety to it,

1369
01:04:32,869 --> 01:04:34,479
that when you really peel
the layers away,

1370
01:04:34,696 --> 01:04:36,133
it's what matters the most.

1371
01:04:36,350 --> 01:04:37,743
Thank you so much.
Yeah.

1372
01:04:37,917 --> 01:04:40,050
Thank you, Coach.
Kelly.

1373
01:04:40,267 --> 01:04:41,355
Adam tapped into something
there.

1374
01:04:41,573 --> 01:04:43,444
I always come back to your voice

1375
01:04:43,662 --> 01:04:45,316
to listen to over
and over again.

1376
01:04:45,533 --> 01:04:48,275
There's something so true
and raw.

1377
01:04:48,493 --> 01:04:50,321
You're the only one
that really had

1378
01:04:50,538 --> 01:04:53,628
the super intimate performance
that was about being a voice

1379
01:04:53,846 --> 01:04:56,022
that is the vessel
for a beautiful message.

1380
01:04:56,240 --> 01:04:57,719
What a blessing to have a gift

1381
01:04:57,894 --> 01:05:00,244
that makes someone
just feel amazing on the inside.

1382
01:05:00,461 --> 01:05:03,508
Like, I think you did
an incredible job.

1383
01:05:03,725 --> 01:05:05,597
I cannot wait to work
with you afterwards as well.

1384
01:05:05,814 --> 01:05:07,206
Thank you so much.

1385
01:05:07,207 --> 01:05:08,905
How about another hand
for JW Griffin, everybody?

1386
01:05:09,122 --> 01:05:10,863
I'm very stunned.

1387
01:05:11,037 --> 01:05:13,431
I feel really kind of at peace.

1388
01:05:13,648 --> 01:05:15,650
I feel like I put everything
into that song.

1389
01:05:15,868 --> 01:05:18,653
So I'm kind of just
coming down right now.

1390
01:05:18,871 --> 01:05:21,482
That falsetto
is so good.

1391
01:05:21,700 --> 01:05:23,832
It's how did I affect
the audience more than

1392
01:05:24,007 --> 01:05:25,617
how did I affect
the coaches?

1393
01:05:25,834 --> 01:05:27,924
But that's the best reaction
I could have hoped for.

1394
01:05:28,141 --> 01:05:31,492
I'm just hoping and praying that
we'll be here for the finale.

1395
01:05:31,710 --> 01:05:33,755
There's just something
so pure about his voice.

1396
01:05:33,930 --> 01:05:35,888
I just hear him making
a record like now.

1397
01:05:36,062 --> 01:05:37,542
It just reminds me
of like that Willie,

1398
01:05:37,759 --> 01:05:39,500
Randy Travis,
just pretty.

1399
01:05:39,718 --> 01:05:40,762
Yeah.
It's really cool.

1400
01:05:40,937 --> 01:05:42,460
I love his voice.
Mm-hmm.

♪ This is "The Voice" ♪

1402
01:05:51,034 --> 01:05:52,600

Battle of Champions."

01:05:52,818 --> 01:05:54,124
Okay, stand by, folks.

1404
01:05:54,341 --> 01:05:55,299
I don't know
whether it's going to help

1405
01:05:55,516 --> 01:05:57,344
or hurt Lucas to go last,

1406
01:05:57,562 --> 01:06:01,392
but I do know if he does
as well as I know he can do,

1407
01:06:01,609 --> 01:06:05,439
it will be amazing that he's
the last thing people hear.

1408
01:06:05,657 --> 01:06:07,964
Ready?
And camera mark.

1409
01:06:08,181 --> 01:06:11,968
Oh! Oh!
That was scary.

1410
01:06:12,185 --> 01:06:13,578
I wish y'all could hear it.
I got--

1411
01:06:13,795 --> 01:06:15,319
I got the band
playing their instruments

1412
01:06:15,536 --> 01:06:17,669
in my ear right now.
One's-- One's playing that--

1413
01:06:17,886 --> 01:06:19,584
I'm hearing four different keys
right now. I'm dying.

1414
01:06:19,801 --> 01:06:21,978
I've thought about being
in the finale every day.

1415
01:06:22,152 --> 01:06:23,849
It would be incredible to be--

1416
01:06:24,023 --> 01:06:25,938
to be the one finalist
for Team Legend.

1417
01:06:26,112 --> 01:06:27,896
Like, I had a dream about that
last night.

1418
01:06:28,071 --> 01:06:29,462
I really want it to happen

1419
01:06:29,463 --> 01:06:31,422
and I want to represent
my friend, my mentor.

1420
01:06:31,639 --> 01:06:33,511
That's my guy, John Legend.

1421
01:06:33,728 --> 01:06:38,037
I am so proud of
how you've shown yourself

1422
01:06:38,255 --> 01:06:39,865
throughout
this competition,

1423
01:06:40,039 --> 01:06:41,823
and I think you have
a really good shot

1424
01:06:41,998 --> 01:06:43,695
of being in
the finale.

1425
01:06:43,912 --> 01:06:46,263
You're building a story
and building a case for yourself

1426
01:06:46,480 --> 01:06:48,308
that is very strong.

1427
01:06:48,526 --> 01:06:50,049
Man, I'm just grateful
to be here, you know?

1428
01:06:50,267 --> 01:06:51,964
Yeah.
Working with John,

1429
01:06:52,138 --> 01:06:53,922
I'm learning things about
my voice and about my artistry

1430
01:06:54,097 --> 01:06:57,100
that I just wasn't even thinking
about before I came here.

1431
01:06:57,317 --> 01:06:58,927
Let's talk about
what song we chose.

1432
01:06:59,102 --> 01:07:00,886
We worked on this
together.

1433
01:07:01,060 --> 01:07:02,931
A song by the great
Paul McCartney.

1434
01:07:03,106 --> 01:07:04,716
That's right.
"Maybe I'm Amazed."

1435
01:07:04,933 --> 01:07:08,546
It's about appreciation
and gratitude.
Always.

1436
01:07:08,763 --> 01:07:10,026
That's what I see
in this song,

1437
01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:12,463
is Paul's desire
to appreciate the people

1438
01:07:12,680 --> 01:07:14,030
that support him in his life.

1439
01:07:14,204 --> 01:07:16,293
In my case, it's all my friends,
it's my mentors.

1440
01:07:16,510 --> 01:07:17,468
It's my mom and dad.

1441
01:07:17,685 --> 01:07:19,035
In my own little way,

1442
01:07:19,209 --> 01:07:21,037
the "Voice" experience
has been repaying them

1443
01:07:21,211 --> 01:07:22,734
for all the support, and I feel

1444
01:07:22,951 --> 01:07:25,302
like this tune is a culmination
to say, like, thank you.

1445
01:07:25,519 --> 01:07:26,824
Like a true thank you, you know?

1446
01:07:26,825 --> 01:07:28,783
Still going to buy them
a hot tub, though.

1447
01:07:29,001 --> 01:07:30,959

1451
01:07:38,184 --> 01:07:41,231
It's big, it's urgent,
it's passionate.

1452
01:07:41,448 --> 01:07:44,712
It allows him to wail,
hit those high notes.

1453
01:07:45,713 --> 01:07:47,280
Showing us different parts
of his voice,

1454
01:07:47,498 --> 01:07:49,239
his range, and his ability.

1455
01:07:49,456 --> 01:07:53,199
I feel like he's coming on
strong when it counts the most.

1456
01:07:53,417 --> 01:07:54,853
It sounds so good.
Thanks, man.

1457
01:07:55,071 --> 01:07:56,811
It feels like it's right
for the moment.

1458
01:07:57,029 --> 01:07:59,249

1466

Yeah.
Gotta make them
feel loved.

1467

Yeah!

1516
01:11:24,280 --> 01:11:26,412
Come on, little king.

1517
01:11:28,588 --> 01:11:30,198
Always great, Lucas.
Congratulations.

1518
01:11:30,373 --> 01:11:31,330
We'll get some thoughts
from our coaches.

1519
01:11:31,548 --> 01:11:32,592
We'll start with Adam.

1520
01:11:32,810 --> 01:11:34,681
That song
requires everything

1521
01:11:34,899 --> 01:11:35,900
from a person singing it.

1522
01:11:36,117 --> 01:11:37,815
There is no stone left unturned

1523
01:11:38,032 --> 01:11:40,165
as far as what that song demands
of you when you sing it.

1524
01:11:40,339 --> 01:11:42,298
I don't think there's
one part of your voice

1525
01:11:42,515 --> 01:11:44,387
that cannot be firing
on all cylinders.

1526
01:11:44,604 --> 01:11:46,780
I love how you brought up
those big moments

1527
01:11:46,998 --> 01:11:48,652
that you did and kind of
tossed them a little bit.

1528
01:11:48,869 --> 01:11:49,870
I thought that was cool.

1529
01:11:50,088 --> 01:11:51,394
And you did a run.
Crazy.

1530
01:11:51,611 --> 01:11:53,613
You did a run
that made us go like...

1531
01:11:53,831 --> 01:11:55,049
Thanks, man.

1532
01:11:55,267 --> 01:11:56,486
There's just something
about your voice

1533
01:11:56,703 --> 01:11:58,096
that is so captivating.

1534
01:11:58,314 --> 01:11:59,837
And I think the fact
that you play

1535
01:12:00,054 --> 01:12:02,318
and you're such a real player
and a real musician,

1536
01:12:02,535 --> 01:12:06,409
it adds this other dynamic
to you that's super compelling.

1537
01:12:06,626 --> 01:12:08,715
And I just-- I'm a big,
huge fan of yours, man.

1538
01:12:08,933 --> 01:12:10,151
And congratulations.

1539
01:12:10,326 --> 01:12:11,327
Thank you, Adam.
I really appreciate that.

1540
01:12:11,501 --> 01:12:13,067
Kelly.
Thank you.

1541
01:12:13,285 --> 01:12:15,156
There are very few artists
I would go to a stadium for

1542
01:12:15,331 --> 01:12:17,158
because I don't find them
very intimate.

1543
01:12:17,333 --> 01:12:19,335
And I don't think
people pull them off very well.

1544
01:12:19,509 --> 01:12:21,946
And it's so funny because you
are the one performer tonight

1545
01:12:22,163 --> 01:12:26,037
that I do think would
just crush in that environment.

1546
01:12:26,254 --> 01:12:28,300
You have so much power
to your voice,

1547
01:12:28,474 --> 01:12:30,520
so much conviction,
so much soulfulness,

1548
01:12:30,737 --> 01:12:31,912
not just through your voice,
by the way.

1549
01:12:32,130 --> 01:12:33,566
Through your fingers.
Thank you.

1550
01:12:33,784 --> 01:12:36,526
The whole experience,
it's just awesome to behold.

1551
01:12:36,743 --> 01:12:38,136
Not just a great voice, man.

1552
01:12:38,354 --> 01:12:39,790
You're just a great artist
overall.

1553
01:12:40,007 --> 01:12:41,618
Thank you, Kelly. Love you.
Appreciate you.

1554
01:12:41,835 --> 01:12:43,010
Alright, Lucas, let's see
what your coach has to say.

1555
01:12:43,228 --> 01:12:45,361
- John.
- You are the whole package.

1556
01:12:45,535 --> 01:12:47,145
You're an artist's artist.

1557
01:12:47,363 --> 01:12:49,539
You're a real pianist that can
really, like, play, play.

1558
01:12:49,756 --> 01:12:51,410
Thanks, man.
Like, with real chops.

1559
01:12:51,628 --> 01:12:53,760
You're tackling these really big
songs by really big artists.

1560
01:12:53,978 --> 01:12:56,937
But what it also tells me is you
have great taste in songwriting,

1561
01:12:57,155 --> 01:12:59,375
which makes me want to hear
what your songwriting is like.

1562
01:12:59,592 --> 01:13:03,814
You come out here and you
really deliver, like, electric,

1563
01:13:04,031 --> 01:13:07,644
energetic, beautiful,
soulful performances.

1564
01:13:07,861 --> 01:13:10,298
I just looked down.
I forgot that you're 21.

1565
01:13:10,473 --> 01:13:11,909
Like, that's crazy to be 21.
21.

1566
01:13:12,126 --> 01:13:13,432
Are you shocked
he's not 40?

1567
01:13:13,650 --> 01:13:15,391
Why is that so surprising?

1568
01:13:15,608 --> 01:13:17,654
I mean, I played oldies, man.
I-- I can't--

1569
01:13:17,871 --> 01:13:20,396
Like, I just love
how artistic you are,

1570
01:13:20,613 --> 01:13:22,615
how creative you are, and then
how competitive you are.

1571
01:13:22,833 --> 01:13:24,791
Thank you, John. Thank you.
How about
another big hand for Lucas West,

1572
01:13:25,009 --> 01:13:26,227
everybody?

1573
01:13:26,402 --> 01:13:28,142
Lucas gave a finale-worthy
performance,

1574
01:13:28,360 --> 01:13:31,319
and it's hard for me to say
who they're going to pick

1575
01:13:31,494 --> 01:13:33,278
among my Team Legend artists.

1576
01:13:33,452 --> 01:13:34,497
My man. Great work.
Appreciate you.

1577
01:13:34,714 --> 01:13:36,412
All of them gave me their best,

1578
01:13:36,586 --> 01:13:39,415
gave the audience their best,
picked great songs,

1579
01:13:39,632 --> 01:13:41,547
and we'll see what happens.

1580
01:13:41,765 --> 01:13:46,204
It is time to vote for your
favorite performances tonight.

1581
01:13:46,422 --> 01:13:48,424
With your tablets,
you are voting for

1582
01:13:48,598 --> 01:13:50,817
the one artist who will
represent Adam,

1583
01:13:51,035 --> 01:13:52,339
one artist for John,

1584
01:13:52,340 --> 01:13:54,604
and since Kelly won our
All-Star Showdown,

1585
01:13:54,821 --> 01:13:56,910
you'll vote for
her top two artists

1586
01:13:57,128 --> 01:13:58,434
to move on to our finale.

1587
01:13:58,608 --> 01:13:59,957
The voting opens now.

1588
01:14:00,174 --> 01:14:01,828
The results
when the "Battle of Champions,"

1589
01:14:02,046 --> 01:14:05,353
the semifinals returns
right after this.

1590
01:14:05,528 --> 01:14:08,008
Audience, get voting.

1591
01:14:08,226 --> 01:14:09,619
I don't know, I'm nervous.

1592
01:14:09,836 --> 01:14:11,925
I'm just nervous to see
who they're gonna pick.

1593
01:14:19,846 --> 01:14:24,372
♪ This is "The Voice" ♪

1594
01:14:24,547 --> 01:14:26,070
Welcome back.
And this is it.

1595
01:14:26,287 --> 01:14:28,551
We have the results
from our special voting audience

1596
01:14:28,768 --> 01:14:32,076
made up of "Voice" alumni
and super fans.

1597
01:14:32,293 --> 01:14:34,252
Please welcome Team Adam.

1598
01:14:40,780 --> 01:14:43,435
Yes. Looking good.

1599
01:14:43,609 --> 01:14:45,916
Great job tonight,
Team Adam.

1600
01:14:46,133 --> 01:14:48,222
Alexia, we'll start with you.
As a mom of two,

1601
01:14:48,440 --> 01:14:50,007
what would you like
to say to your kids

1602
01:14:50,224 --> 01:14:51,922
about pursuing your dreams?

1603
01:14:52,139 --> 01:14:53,880
Your mama got your back.
Yes.

1604
01:14:54,098 --> 01:14:56,100
My mama had my back,
so I know how to do it.

1605
01:14:56,317 --> 01:14:58,232
I hope it's music,

1606
01:14:58,450 --> 01:15:00,539
but whatever they want to do,
I got your back, baby.

1607
01:15:00,757 --> 01:15:02,802
Mommy love you.
Yes.

1608
01:15:03,020 --> 01:15:04,891
Beautiful.
Thank you, Alexia.

1609
01:15:05,109 --> 01:15:06,806
And good luck.
Jared,

1610
01:15:07,024 --> 01:15:08,504
what has this experience being
on "The Voice" meant to you?

1611
01:15:08,678 --> 01:15:10,506
Second to serving
in the military,

1612
01:15:10,680 --> 01:15:12,072
this is the coolest,

1613
01:15:12,290 --> 01:15:13,639
most meaningful thing
I've probably ever done.

1614
01:15:13,857 --> 01:15:15,815
I got to sing for John Legend,
Kelly Clarkson,

1615
01:15:16,033 --> 01:15:17,338
and work with Adam Levine.

1616
01:15:17,513 --> 01:15:19,384
You know, thank you
for taking me this far

1617
01:15:19,558 --> 01:15:21,212
and giving me a shot.

1618
01:15:21,429 --> 01:15:22,996
Best of luck to you,
and thank you for your service.

1619
01:15:23,214 --> 01:15:25,216
Alright, Jeremy,
this has been your chance

1620
01:15:25,433 --> 01:15:27,523
to break out as a solo artist.

1621
01:15:27,697 --> 01:15:29,699
How has Adam's belief
in your talent helped?

1622
01:15:29,916 --> 01:15:33,529
Adam definitely has taste, clearly.

1623
01:15:33,746 --> 01:15:37,358
I'm so grateful for every
opportunity to hit this stage

1624
01:15:37,533 --> 01:15:39,491
and to sing for all of you
beautiful people.

1625
01:15:39,665 --> 01:15:40,927
Yes.

1626
01:15:41,145 --> 01:15:42,712
It is time to announce
the results

1627
01:15:42,929 --> 01:15:45,149
of this audience's vote.

1628
01:15:45,366 --> 01:15:46,629
Here we go.

1629
01:15:56,290 --> 01:15:58,989
Team Adam's finalist is...

1630
01:16:02,862 --> 01:16:04,124
Alexia Jayy.

1631
01:16:07,214 --> 01:16:09,652
Congratulations, Alexia.

1632
01:16:13,569 --> 01:16:16,702
Alexia is a queen.

1633
01:16:16,920 --> 01:16:19,618
You did it!
You did it, you did it!

1634
01:16:19,836 --> 01:16:21,185
You did it!

1635
01:16:21,402 --> 01:16:23,666
She is unbelievably special

1636
01:16:23,883 --> 01:16:26,059
and deserves to be
in this finale.

1637
01:16:26,277 --> 01:16:29,367
And I think that everyone made
the right choice tonight.

1638
01:16:29,585 --> 01:16:30,847
I just can't wait
to get in there with her

1639
01:16:31,064 --> 01:16:32,631
and work on our
last performance.

1640
01:16:32,849 --> 01:16:34,328
And it's gonna be magic.

1641
01:16:34,546 --> 01:16:36,156
I'm emotional.

1642
01:16:36,374 --> 01:16:38,071
Oh, that was so nerve wracking.

1643
01:16:38,289 --> 01:16:42,119
But I'm so grateful
I'm in the top four.

1644
01:16:43,599 --> 01:16:45,209
Now it's the moment of truth.

1645
01:16:45,426 --> 01:16:48,386
Please welcome
Team Legend to center stage.

1646
01:16:48,604 --> 01:16:49,735
Yeah!

1647
01:16:50,736 --> 01:16:52,956
What an amazing
semifinal performance.

1648
01:16:53,173 --> 01:16:54,566
Thank you guys so much.

1649
01:16:54,740 --> 01:16:56,524
Before we get to the result,
KJ,

1650
01:16:56,699 --> 01:16:59,136
what would you like America
to know about you as an artist?

1651
01:16:59,353 --> 01:17:02,182
I would like America to know
that I am the artist

1652
01:17:02,400 --> 01:17:04,489
that writes music
for my children to listen to,

1653
01:17:04,663 --> 01:17:06,534
the timeless artist
that writes music

1654
01:17:06,709 --> 01:17:10,321
that your mom and dad will dance
to at your wedding reception.

1655
01:17:10,538 --> 01:17:11,975
Alright, now.
I want to write the songs

1656
01:17:12,192 --> 01:17:14,630
and be the artist
that nobody ever forgets about.

1657
01:17:14,804 --> 01:17:16,327
Yes.

1658
01:17:16,544 --> 01:17:18,590
Lucas, how has your time
on Team Legend

1659
01:17:18,764 --> 01:17:20,461
fostered your lifelong love
of music?

1660
01:17:20,636 --> 01:17:22,594
I feel like John really
just taught me how to be myself.

1661
01:17:22,768 --> 01:17:24,422
Before I got here,
I had a lot of self-doubt,

1662
01:17:24,640 --> 01:17:25,989
and I feel like
your guidance

1663
01:17:26,206 --> 01:17:27,686
and your mentorship
really has helped me.

1664
01:17:27,904 --> 01:17:30,907
So God bless you
and I appreciate you a lot, man.

1665
01:17:32,256 --> 01:17:34,867
Syd, your big, beautiful Italian
family in New Jersey

1666
01:17:35,085 --> 01:17:37,043
has been a massive support
for you.

1667
01:17:37,261 --> 01:17:38,175
What would you like
to say to them?

1668
01:17:38,392 --> 01:17:39,872
I love you so much.

1669
01:17:40,090 --> 01:17:43,397
Everything that I do
is for you guys and our family.

1670
01:17:43,615 --> 01:17:45,530
And I wish you were here
with me tonight.

1671
01:17:45,704 --> 01:17:46,923
I love you so much.

1672
01:17:47,140 --> 01:17:48,576
Thank you, Syd.

1673
01:17:48,751 --> 01:17:49,926
Alright, it is time to announce

1674
01:17:50,143 --> 01:17:52,450
the results of
this audience's vote.

1675
01:17:52,668 --> 01:17:53,494
No idea.

1676
01:17:53,669 --> 01:17:54,713
Here we go.

1677
01:18:00,501 --> 01:18:01,720
I have no idea.

1678
01:18:01,938 --> 01:18:03,679
No idea.

1679
01:18:03,853 --> 01:18:06,769
Team Legend's finalist is...

1680
01:18:11,687 --> 01:18:12,949
Lucas West.

1681
01:18:16,387 --> 01:18:20,086
Give it up for Lucas,
who makes it to the finale.

1682
01:18:20,304 --> 01:18:22,306
Lucas is in the finale.

1683
01:18:22,523 --> 01:18:24,700
I'm so proud of him.
I'm so happy for him.

1684
01:18:24,917 --> 01:18:26,832
My man.
That was tough, bro.

1685
01:18:27,050 --> 01:18:29,705
I've always had a special
kind of affinity for him

1686
01:18:29,879 --> 01:18:32,403
as an artist, because
I see a lot of myself in him.

1687
01:18:32,620 --> 01:18:33,796
Great job.

1688
01:18:34,013 --> 01:18:35,449
I think Lucas is ready
for the finale.

1689
01:18:35,667 --> 01:18:37,016
He's a gamer. He's a competitor.

1690
01:18:37,234 --> 01:18:39,018
He goes out there
and gives his best work

1691
01:18:39,236 --> 01:18:40,454
when the pressure's on.

1692
01:18:40,672 --> 01:18:42,935
You absolutely killed it.
Oh, my God.

1693
01:18:43,153 --> 01:18:44,589
Oh, my God.
Congratulations.

1694
01:18:44,763 --> 01:18:46,156
When we come back,
we're gonna find out which

1695
01:18:46,373 --> 01:18:48,811
two artists will represent
Kelly tomorrow.

1696
01:18:49,028 --> 01:18:50,160
We'll lock it in.

1697
01:18:50,377 --> 01:18:52,379
You'll know all
the finalists next,

1698
01:18:52,597 --> 01:18:54,773
right here on "The Voice."
Stay with us.

1699
01:19:03,303 --> 01:19:08,047
♪ This is "The Voice" ♪

1700
01:19:08,265 --> 01:19:09,788
Welcome back to the
"Battle of the Champions."

1701
01:19:10,006 --> 01:19:11,747
We know that Alexia Jayy
and Lucas West

1702
01:19:11,964 --> 01:19:13,052
are moving on to the finals.

1703
01:19:13,270 --> 01:19:14,793
Now all eyes are on Team Kelly.

1704
01:19:15,011 --> 01:19:16,360
Let's bring them out.

1705
01:19:22,018 --> 01:19:23,976
Yes!

1706
01:19:24,194 --> 01:19:25,630
Welcome, Team Kelly.

1707
01:19:25,804 --> 01:19:28,285
JW, you went from delivering
bread to performing

1708
01:19:28,502 --> 01:19:30,026
in front of millions of people.

1709
01:19:30,243 --> 01:19:31,854
What has reaching the top nine
on Team Kelly--

1710
01:19:32,071 --> 01:19:33,333
What's that meant to you?

1711
01:19:33,551 --> 01:19:35,727
It's been incredible,
this whole experience.

1712
01:19:35,901 --> 01:19:38,077
I didn't even know if
I was going to get a chair turn.

1713
01:19:38,295 --> 01:19:40,166
And here I am
in the top nine.

1714
01:19:40,384 --> 01:19:41,864
I'm just excited
to take everything

1715
01:19:42,081 --> 01:19:44,214
I've learned from you
and all three of you

1716
01:19:44,431 --> 01:19:46,477
and take it to the next level
after this.

1717
01:19:46,694 --> 01:19:48,958
Yeah.
J-Dub, thanks.
Best of luck to you.

1718
01:19:49,175 --> 01:19:51,569
Liv, what has been
the most unique thing

1719
01:19:51,787 --> 01:19:53,179
about being on Kelly's team?

1720
01:19:53,397 --> 01:19:55,268
Other than, you know,
getting to work with you?

1721
01:19:55,486 --> 01:19:57,662
You're so amazing, so talented.
I love you so much.

1722
01:19:57,836 --> 01:20:01,144
You've given me a lot of great
advice about going with my gut.

1723
01:20:01,361 --> 01:20:02,885
You know, in the industry,
there's a lot of people

1724
01:20:03,102 --> 01:20:05,104
that will tell you what to do
and tell you who to be.

1725
01:20:05,322 --> 01:20:07,715
And even though I'm young,
I have to stand my ground.

1726
01:20:07,890 --> 01:20:10,240
And you really helped me
and really taught me about that.

1727
01:20:10,457 --> 01:20:12,372
You have great instincts.

1728
01:20:12,590 --> 01:20:13,939
Thank you, Liv.
Good luck.

1729
01:20:14,157 --> 01:20:16,028
Mikenley, music's
become your lifeline.

1730
01:20:16,246 --> 01:20:19,162
What do you want to say to
young girls who look up to you?

1731
01:20:19,379 --> 01:20:22,295
Love yourself.
Be yourself. Chase your dreams.

1732
01:20:22,513 --> 01:20:24,732
And don't let anyone else
tell you who you are.

1733
01:20:24,907 --> 01:20:28,606
Because too many times I've let
people tell me who I am.

1734
01:20:28,824 --> 01:20:29,999
And if I wouldn't
have came out of that,

1735
01:20:30,216 --> 01:20:31,478
I wouldn't be
where I am right now

1736
01:20:31,696 --> 01:20:32,828
standing here
in front of you guys.

1737
01:20:33,002 --> 01:20:33,872
So thank you.

1738
01:20:34,090 --> 01:20:35,831
Thank you, Mikenley.

1739
01:20:36,048 --> 01:20:37,833
Good luck
to all three of you.

1740
01:20:38,007 --> 01:20:39,182
It is time
to announce the results

1741
01:20:39,399 --> 01:20:40,966
from our special "Voice"
audience.

1742
01:20:41,184 --> 01:20:44,056
Remember, Kelly won
the All-Star Showdown last week,

1743
01:20:44,274 --> 01:20:45,884
so two--
Quit rubbing it in, Carson.

1744
01:20:46,102 --> 01:20:47,755
...will move on
to the finals,

1745
01:20:47,930 --> 01:20:50,193
and one, unfortunately,
will be leaving us tonight.

1746
01:20:50,410 --> 01:20:51,542
Here we go.

1747
01:20:58,941 --> 01:21:01,465
Team Kelly's
first finalist is...

1748
01:21:07,253 --> 01:21:08,733
Liv Ciara.

1749
01:21:14,695 --> 01:21:16,262
The audience chose Liv,
and I was excited.

1750
01:21:16,480 --> 01:21:17,655
I kind of had an indication

1751
01:21:17,873 --> 01:21:18,961
'cause they kind of
lost their minds

1752
01:21:19,178 --> 01:21:20,658
whenever they saw
her performing.

1753
01:21:20,876 --> 01:21:22,355
You know, she didn't get
a chair turn the season before

1754
01:21:22,573 --> 01:21:25,358
and now she got one
and she's really wanting it.

1755
01:21:25,576 --> 01:21:28,535
So it was a really cool thing
to just watch her fly.

1756
01:21:28,753 --> 01:21:29,623
Let's get to work.

1757
01:21:29,841 --> 01:21:30,929
Oh, Lord.

1758
01:21:31,147 --> 01:21:32,496
She raised the game.

1759
01:21:32,713 --> 01:21:34,280
So we've got to
really go to work for the finale

1760
01:21:34,498 --> 01:21:36,413
because we got to do
something even cooler.

1761
01:21:36,630 --> 01:21:38,676
Hey, hey, hey!

1762
01:21:41,244 --> 01:21:43,246
You're a superstar.
Oh, my God.

1763
01:21:43,463 --> 01:21:45,161
Now the suspense.
Alright, alright.

1764
01:21:45,378 --> 01:21:47,206
Alright, one of you
will be moving on to the finals,

1765
01:21:47,424 --> 01:21:49,252
and one of you
will be going home.

1766
01:21:53,125 --> 01:21:54,299
Who's our final one?
Ahh.

1767
01:21:54,300 --> 01:21:56,650
Oh, Lord, I love--
Oh, these-- Ugh.

1768
01:21:56,868 --> 01:21:59,697
Team Kelly's
second finalist is...

1769
01:22:05,746 --> 01:22:07,313
Mikenley Brown.

1770
01:22:12,057 --> 01:22:13,929
It's me and the ladies,
y'all.

1771
01:22:14,146 --> 01:22:15,756
You killed it.
You did so good.

1772
01:22:15,931 --> 01:22:17,628
Mikenley had
her best performance.

1773
01:22:17,845 --> 01:22:20,457
She has been like the dark horse
for me in this competition.

1774
01:22:20,674 --> 01:22:22,198
Thank you so much.

1775
01:22:22,415 --> 01:22:24,243
I'm excited about what
she's going to do in the finale

1776
01:22:24,461 --> 01:22:25,418
to impress everybody.

1777
01:22:27,725 --> 01:22:29,509
I'm so proud of you.
Oh, my God.

1778
01:22:29,727 --> 01:22:31,642
Yes!
I'm excited, baby.

1779
01:22:31,859 --> 01:22:35,211
Congratulations.
You're a superstar.

1780
01:22:35,428 --> 01:22:36,864
Three girls, one boy.

1781
01:22:37,039 --> 01:22:38,997
I mean,
the finale is tomorrow night,

1782
01:22:39,215 --> 01:22:41,391
and the odds are
kind of in Team Kelly's favor.

1783
01:22:41,608 --> 01:22:43,567
We got two going in.
I'm excited.

1784
01:22:43,784 --> 01:22:45,395
There they are.
One of these artists

1785
01:22:45,612 --> 01:22:49,616
is the winner
of the "Battle of Champions."

1786
01:22:49,834 --> 01:22:51,967
Tomorrow we will find out
who it is.

1787
01:22:52,184 --> 01:22:54,056
Huge thank you
to our special "Voice"

1788
01:22:54,273 --> 01:22:57,059
audience members,
super fans, alumni.

1789
01:22:57,276 --> 01:22:58,712
Thank you.
We'll see you tomorrow.

1790
01:22:58,930 --> 01:23:00,932
I'm Carson Daly in L.A.
Good night, everybody.
