Shh! Shh! Shh!

I'm going to let
you guys in on a secret.

I made it the playoffs.
[ Laughs ]

Playoffs night one
start right now.

Yes!

Team Legend,
Team Dan + Shay

are all going to sing tonight
for no saves, no steals.

They've got to convince us
they're ready for the lives.

Team Legend gets to work
with guest mentor Maluma.

[ Singing in native language ]

**

Woman: Maluma is
a global superstar

and is literally one of the most
successful Latin artists ever.

Woman #2: He's done
such a good job at both

the American audience
and the Latin audience,

and that's something
I look up to.

Tonight is all about
Team Legend and Team Dan + Shay,

Get ready for a night
of mind-blowing performances.
Let's do this.

Olivia: Team Dan + Shay get to
work with guest mentor

[Imitates drumroll]
Saweetie!

* That's my best friend,
she a real bad... *

* Drive her own car,
she don't need no Lyft *

Karen: Saweetie is one of the
fastest-growing

superstars out there.

* That's my best friend,
she a real bad... *

* Drive her own car *

Karen: And Saweetie's music
keeps me going

when I want to give up,
and I am not giving up now.

Whoo!

I'm glad I get to watch
Team Dan + Shay

and Team Legend
fight with their emotions

and figure out the biggest
decision of their lives.

I'm gonna just be chilling.

I'm so excited
to listen to them.

It's gonna be wild.
About to bring it.

I'm gonna lay it
to this live show, baby!

Let's get it!

Here we go!

Maluma:
I saw the battles.

I mean, you have crazy,
crazy voices.

Yeah, we got
some great people,

and you're gonna help me
decide, you know,

who my final three
are going to be because --

I'll help you out,
but at the end of the day,

it's your choice, man,
you know?

Yes. That is true.

I need to make some
really critical decisions.

It's gonna be tough for me,
so I brought in some help.

I brought in global superstar
Maluma.

You've done this before, right?
"The Voice Colombia," Mexico?

Mexico, I won one time.

And then in Colombia,
one time.
Wow.

You're bringing great
winning experience to my team.

I like that.
You won already?

I have won once,
so I got to win again.

Bro, I'm pretty sure
you're gonna win

because I saw
some crazy talent

in your team.
Ah! I'm glad
you're saying that.

Let's do it, man.
I'm here to help you out.
Alright.

Maluma comes from Colombia,

but he's crossed over to the US
and all around the world.

He's a huge star,

and we're so lucky
to have him here.

Are you ready?
Yeah, let's go.

John: Hey!
Maluma: What's up, bro?

Maluma's here!
Wow! Look at that outfit!

Oh, my God.
Looking good, man.

Look at that, bro.
Respect, respect.

Maluma has been
in the business for a while.

Okay, bro.
I got to get -- oh!

He's reggae tone.

His sound is very specific
and very current.

I love your outfit.
Bro, same.

Bro, I love
your boots, man.

Look at that.

He's got a huge fan base.

So, he knows a lot
about creating a lane,

creating music
that is specific to a world.

That's what I've been trying
to do.

So it was super sick to,
like,

chop it up with him
a little bit.

Nathan, I'm starting
this playoff with five artists,

but I'm going to choose three
to go to the lives

and let America decide
from then on.

So, all you got to do is earn
your way into that top three.

We're gonna try to do it.
Yeah.

* Oh, darling *

* Oh, darling *

Nathan is singing
"Oh! Darling."

He loves that classic soul,
bluesy old school vibe.

I'm gonna wear
my shades.

* Well, you know
I nearly broke down *

* And cried *

John: I don't think anyone's
making music like him right now,

and I believe it's great
for him to have an identity

that's distinct
from everyone else on the show.

Some of my favorite artists
include James Brown,

Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder.

They all have
really great style.

I would like to think
that I also have

a unique style of some sort.

What you think?

**

[ Laughs ]
Hey!

I need to wear
my shades, man.

So bright right here.

[ Laughs ]

What a star, man.

Hey, I appreciate it.
Thank you.

I just want it
to sound more urgent.

Too mellow?
Yeah, it sounds very proper.

Rock it out a little bit more.

So, I want to hear
some crackle in your voice.

Got you.

Sometimes the tempo
of the songs,

it doesn't mean that the song
is actually slow

because my heart
is always beating pretty fast.

You know what I mean?

So, for me, it's just

to put the heart
in the right situation,

the right way,
also your mind, man.

You know, like,
trust yourself, you know?

And this thing about
the intent of the song, too,

'cause it's like
it's begging her.

"Come on, baby.
Come on. Stay with me."

Working with John and Maluma is
one of the most positive things

I think I've been lucky
enough to experience.

Your voice is strong.
Fuerte.

Yeah, fuerte.
Muy fuerte.

Maybe you go a little bit
further from the mic.

Oh, okay.
Yes.

The way they bounce
off of each other,

it's kind of cool to watch.

You can take the mic stand

and * When you told me *

Oh. Feel it.
Yeah, yeah.

He has the whole complement
of everything, the look.

I loved his voice,

and I feel like
he's super humble,

and he wants to keep learning
from John, from the team.

He could be in the finale.

It's gonna be dope.

Ah! Let's go!

Let's go.
My man.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Let's go, Nathan!

With "Oh! Darling,"
here's Nathan Chester.

**

* Oh! Darling *

* Please believe me *

* I'll never do you no harm *

* Believe me when I tell you *

* Oh, I'll never do ya
no harm *

[ Cheers and applause ]
Yeah!

* Whoa, darling *

* If you leave me *

* I'll never make it alone *

* Make it alone *

* Believe me when I beg you *

* Don't ever leave me alone *

You know what I'm talking about!

Uh-huh!
Hey!

* When you told me *

* You didn't need me anymore *

* Well, you know
I nearly broke down and cried *

* When you told me *

* You didn't need me anymore *

* Well, you know
I nearly broke down and died *

* Oh, darling *

* If you leave me *

* I'll never let you down *

* Believe me when I tell you *

* Oh, I'll never do you
no harm *

* You got to know, got to know,
got to know, come on *

* Baby, you and I *

* Believe me when I tell you *

* I'll never *

* I'll never do you no harm *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Yeah!

Daly: That is how
you do it in the playoffs!

Let's go!
Nathan Chester!

[ Laughs ]

Whoo!
That was amazing.

I have a lot to say about it,
but no one cares.

Reba, let's start with you.
[ Laughter ]

Best performance ever.

[ Laughs ]
[ Cheers and applause ]

Thank you.

You had me
at the very beginning

when you had
a hold of that microphone,

you was looking this way,

and then
when you did the splits,

I went, "Man,
that's something else.

America needs to see
this again."

Alright.
Chance?

Chance:
Amazing performance.

You have, like,
a very particular style,

like you're very much yourself.

The choreography, your tone.

If I were you, I would send him
to the lives. Yes.

[ Laughs ]
[ Cheers and applause ]

Dan + Shay.

As an artist, you really took
that song and made it your own.

That's a really important thing

at this point
in the competition.

I think this is your
best performance yet.

Oh, God.
And you're styling, too.

That suit is just, like,
on fire.

[ Cheers and applause ]

When you're running around
on stage, I know how that is.

I'm out of breath.

If I were to come
and give you a hug right now,

I don't think I could hit
a high note.
[ Laughter ]

You could do
the splits, though.
I could do the splits,
though, yeah.

That is untrue, guys.
[ Laughter ]

It was flawless.

Move this man
to the lives, John!
Let's go, John!

Let's go.
Thank you, guys.

Nathan, that was
your best performance yet,

and you do it
with such conviction

and such enthusiasm
and such great execution.

It's not all tricks.
It's not all splits.

It's not all the outfit.

You can sing, man.

You made
an emphatic statement

about you deserving
to be in the live show.

Thank you.
Wow, that's what you want
to hear from your coach.

Give it up
for Nathan Chester.

[ Cheers and applause ]

I'm looking for an artist
who is making

memorable moments on this stage.

Where they stand in their gift
and their power

and give us something
we'll remember.

That's who's going to the lives.

Nathan's already making
a statement.

He just put everything
out there on the stage.

He was doing splits.
He has that lilt to his voice.

It's romantic, it's classic.

Tonight's going to be
a tough decision for me.

He nailed it.
That was 100%.

All of the choreography
was so good.

He just bounced up.
I can do a fake split.

[ Laughs ]

Daly: Coming up...
You better say that
with your chest, girl.

I know that's right.

If Saweetie thinks I'm a
diamond, then I'm a diamond.

Daly: ...our mentors help
the artists reach new heights.

You can also, like, clap
and perform.
That's fun.

You don't even have to play.

* Everything's
gonna be alright *

* Everything's
gonna be alright *

* No woman, no cry *

Daly: And both teams
step up their style.

* Come on now,
we're runnin' outta moonlight *

* ...things we never had *

Dang!

That was crazy, John.
That was awesome.

First time today
that I got chills.

And when I do get the chills,
I also wear my bathrobe.

It's a free country.

[ Laughter ]

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Alright, Karen.
Here we go.

Man! * Them boots
are made for walking *

Those are cool.
Shay: Reba's online shopping.

No, I'm like,
"Where's her dressing room?"

[ Laughter ]

Dan: So, first time
as a mentor on "The Voice."

First time.
How are you feeling?

I'm looking forward
to the talent.

We chose to bring in Saweetie.
She is amazing.

Saweetie really cut through
on social media --

TikTok, Instagram.

That's a tough world.

We got a lot of good people
on our team,

and they're gonna be nervous

'cause we were nervous
to get to meet you.

Like, I'm nervous
for them --
I would be nervous.

whenever they're
out there.
I'm sweating.

I'm nervous right now.

This is way more difficult
than anything

we had to do coming up.

I have a lot of empathy
for the people

who have the courage
and the bravery

to come out here
and perform.

Let's create
the vibe for them.
Let's do it.

Shay: Saweetie is such
an incredible hip-hop artist.

These contestants,
they dream about

exactly what she's doing
right now.

She's new, she's fresh,
and she's massive.

She's absolutely crushing it.

She embodies everything

that a new artist
really strives to be.

We got Karen.
I'm very excited about Karen.
She kills it.

Like, she's been performing
for a long time.

Just, like, a country singer,
through and through.

Shay: Absolutely.

I'm excited you're getting
the introduction

into country.

Come on over. Let's go.
I smell a feature coming.

Let's go. You guys got that
on tape, right?

She said -- yeah,
you heard it, right?

Hey!

Hello.

Look at you!
Wow, hello!

Karen: Oh, my gosh,
when I walked in

and I saw Saweetie...

She has been nominated
for Grammys.

She is such
an incredible musician, artist.

My best friend and I's
song is "Best Friend."

Really?

I was like, "Oh, my gosh!"

I was so excited.

I can't wait to tell my friend
that I got to meet her.

* I never stay in one place
too long *

I'm singing "Heart Like a Truck"
by Lainey Wilson.

This song really connects
to my personal music career.

When I moved to Nashville,
I didn't know anyone.

I had a twin-sized bed,
an acoustic guitar,

a dream in my heart,
and a voice.

* And I can't help it *

I have taken a garment
that I wore to a gig to a shop,

sold that garment,

and literally used the same $20
to turn around

and buy a secondhand garment
from that same shop.

I have done whatever it took
to get to the next gig.

If I look back
at my whole career,

it literally went like this.

I never had that huge spike.

This is that.
This is the spike, baby!

I kind of want to create, like,
an arc to this performance.

Towards the front half,

I feel like you can be
a little bit more internal,

save something to be desired.

As it builds, then you open up
a little bit more

and really work that crowd.

Shay: I think it takes
a really tough person

to be able to show
that vulnerability.

My mom was sending me a text.

She's like, "I don't know
how you do all this."

I said, "Because I love it."

I moved to Nashville
when I was 21,

and I've been full-time
playing music,

touring all across America
for 12 years.

You know, there's no deadline
to dreams.

And I feel like
a lot of people

would've threw in the towel,
you know?
Karen: Yes.

But you have
that ambitious spirit.

And that's really important
for the world to see that.

That's so sweet.

It was spicy,

but it was vulnerable
at the same time.

Like, as a woman, I felt it.

Don't strive for perfection,
strive for personality.

We want to hear
a good song.

We also want to,
like, know you.

Whoo!
Preaching over here.

You're like
a motivational speaker.

Shay: Unbelievable!

I love, love, love Karen.

* I got a heart... *

Despite her years
of being in the industry,

she still feels fresh

and persevering
through any circumstance.

She's the poster child for that.

I'm definitely a fan.

So good.
Alright.
Thank you guys so much.

To move on to the live rounds,

you really got to bring
your A game.

If Karen really digs deep,

puts herself into the story
of "Heart Like a Truck,"

I feel like she is
such a strong contender

to move forward
to the live shows.

She loves singing.
Yeah, I could feel it.

I can't wait
till she has her moment.

It's gonna be a big moment
for her, for sure.

Yeah.

Whoo!

[ Cheers and applause ]

With "Heart Like a Truck,"
here's Karen Waldrup.

Let's go, Karen!

**

* I never stay in one place
too long *

* The dirt road's singing me
a siren's song *

* I gotta find a field *

* I need to spin my wheels *

* I gotta hankerin'
for four wide tires *

* And I can't help it,
it's the way I'm wired *

* 'Fore you get too close *

* Boy, you need to know *

* I got a heart like a truck *

* It's been drug
through the mud *

* Runs on dreams and gasoline *

* And that ole highway
holds the key *

* It's got a lead foot down
when it's leavin' *

* Lord knows it's taken
a hell of a beatin' *

* A little bit of love
is all that it's needin' *

* But it's good as it is tough *

* I got a heart like a truck *

**

* Go on and see if you can
knock off the dust, yeah *

* Shine it up, rev it up,
and let it run, yeah *

* It gets a high ridin' off
into the sun, yeah *

* I got a heart like a truck *

* It's been drug
through the mud *

* Runs on dreams and gasoline *

* That ole highway
holds the key *

* It's got a lead foot down
when it's leavin' *

* Lord knows it's taken
a hell of a beatin' *

* A little bit of love
is all that it's needin' *

* But it's good as it is tough *

* I got a heaaaaart *

* Like a truck *

* Oh *

* So let it ruuuuuun *

* So let it ruuuuuun *

* 'Cause it gets a high
ridin' off into the sun *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Daly: That's how you do it.

Team Dan + Shay.

That is Karen Waldrup,
ladies and gentlemen.

Man. Karen.
Come on!

Oh, this is great music
happening on this stage.

Yeah!

This is so awesome.

Celebrate.
That was a great performance.

Round after round,
you're showing us

what a credible artist
you are.

I love the clarity
in your voice.

I felt like I was listening
to a country star.
Uh-huh!

Thank you so much, John.
Reba.

Carson, I'm just sitting here

doing a little playback
in my mind.

Because at blind auditions,
I wanted you on my team.

Then somebody over there --

[ Laughter ]

...blocked me, where I could not
have her on my team.

Y'all better watch it.

[ Laughter ]

Well, now I feel bad.
Oh, my gosh.

Karen, spectacular.

Thank you.

Chance.

I love how you interact
with the crowd

and how confident you are.

And I feel like that's, like,
the main point of lives,

captivate an audience even
through the lens to their TV.

So, if I was in your position,
I would send her to the lives.

Daly: Okay, Dan + Shay.

Karen, I'm so proud
of how you've progressed

throughout this competition.

Just hearing that from
the Queen of Country music --

I literally
almost started crying.

It's crazy you guys blocked
the chance --

We don't need
to talk about it, John.

This is about Karen
right now.

It's wild.
It's really wild.
It is kind of crazy.

I think about it, you know,
country music is a family,

and that's something that
we're looking for in the lives.

You brought us up, and then you
brought it back here

for the ending,
and we were all just in awe.

I'm so happy for you.

I think that was my favorite
performance you've done so far.

We know you've got
a powerhouse voice.

But I felt like on this song,
you connected to the lyric,

more so than any
of the previous performances.
Agreed.

You're a pro. You left
everything on the stage.

Incredible.
Thank you so much.

Give it up for Karen Waldrup,
everybody!

Moving forward
to these live shows,

we are looking for people
to show us they have

the ability to make
people feel something.

Karen set the bar so high.

If that's a sign
of what's to come,

we're in for an insane night.
Way to go!

She killed it.
Nailed it.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the playoffs.

Shay: Are you chilling
over there, Chance?

All my coffee kicked
in at the same time.

Right now.

[ Laughter ]

[ Cheers and applause ]

Go, Kamalei!

Is this gonna be crazy?
It's gonna be dope.

Maluma: It is weird
because I was raised

listening to American music.

So, the American roots

gave me tools to become
the artist

that I am right now, too.

So, it's great, you know?

That's what music is,
you know.

We're all influenced
by each other.

Man: Ready, ready?
Ready.

Kamalei, welcome!

How are you?
How's it going?

John: We've got Maluma
with us!

Maluma: What's up, man?
How are you?

Kamalei: Walking into the room
and see Maluma,

someone who's been
Grammy nominated,

who's been
on the top Billboards,

it was just mind-blowing
to be in the same space as him.

He earned his way on the team
singing my song, "All of Me."

And he killed it.

* Give your all to me *

* I'll give my all to you *

John: I love Kamalei.
His voice is beautiful.

His energy, just the whole vibe.

Everybody loves
to be around him.

Daly: Whoa!
We got a steal!

And I had to steal him.

I'm so happy he's
on Team Legend now.

As an artist coming from,
you know, a small town --
Yeah.

...how were you able to take
all of those cultural things

with you to the mainstream?

I always take my roots
and my essence everywhere I go,

because that's what
makes me feel unique.

Hawaii make you the guy
that you are right now.

Your ability
to translate those roots

to the mainstream culture
is what makes artists work.

Why did you want to do
Bob Marley again?

Bob Marley stands for
a lot of the same things

that we stand for in Hawaii.

And some of the things that
I bring to the stage with me

when I perform and when I sing
a message of peace,

a message of love.

* No woman, no cry *

* No woman, no cry *

I feel like I share
a lot with Bob Marley.

Our cultures have suffered
the same ways.

I can also relate
to him in the song.

You know, he speaks
about Trenchtown,

the place that he grew up.

It takes me home
to my Trenchtown,

to my neighborhood,
to all the good times,

all the friends
that I have there.

* Good friends we've had... *

Maluma:
Kamalei has this texture

where he can do
this kind of rhythms and genres.

So, for him,
this is a perfect song.

John: Your voice
sounds gorgeous.

I'm just thinking
about the arrangement.

Right now, it feels
like it's a little flat,

but maybe it build
the arrangement as it goes.

It doesn't have to become
some big production.

I agree with you that maybe
if you put the drums,

I was thinking piano,
like a little element behind it.

So, people, they actually see
that you can also,

like, clap and perform.

It's not only your vocals
and the guitar.

It's more a performance
and seeing the people around

is important too, you know.

Take your hands
off the guitar

for that "everything's
gonna be alright."

And when you get
everybody doing

* Everything's
gonna be alright *

you don't even have to play.

* Everything's
gonna be alright *

And just let it build.

* Everything's
gonna be alright *

Alright.
* Everything's gonna... *

I looked over
at Maluma and John,

you know, grooving
and dancing with me.

It just gave me a boost
of confidence.

They were full-on
feeling the song.

Gave me validation
that what I'm doing is right,

and what I'm doing is good,
and what I'm doing is enough.

I love the song, man.
Great song.

Thank you so much.
What a pleasure.

Let's go, Kamalei!

[ Cheers and applause ]

With "No Woman, No Cry,"
here's Kamalei Kawa'a.

[ Cheers and applause continue ]

* No woman, no cry *

* No woman, no cry *

* Said I remember
when we used to sit *

* In the government yard
in Trenchtown *

* Oba-observing the hypocrites *

* As they would mingle
with the good people we meet *

* Good friends we've had *

* Good friends we've lost
along the way *

* In this great future,
you can't forget your past *

* So dry your tears I say *

* No woman, no cry *

* No woman, no cry *

* Hey! *

* Said I remember
when we used to sit *

* In the government yard
in Trenchtown *

* And then Georgie,
he would make the fire light *

* A log wood burning
through the night *

* And then we would cook
corn meal porridge, yeah *

* Of which I'll share with you *

* But my feet
is my only carriage *

* So I've got to
push on through *

* But while I'm gone, come on *

* Everything's
gonna be alright *

* Listen!
Everything's gonna be alright *

* Come on!
Everything's gonna be alright *

* No woman, no cry *

* No woman, no cry *

* No woman, no cry *

* No woman, no cry *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Wow!

Daly: Kamalei Kawa'a,
ladies and gentlemen!

Yes, yes, yes.

Good job, Kamalei.
Great job.

Let's go to your former coach.
What's up, Chance?

Dude, that was so amazing.

Great breath control,

great improvisational moments.

If I was John, I would 100%
need you on my live team.

I think that was
a great performance.

[ Laughs ]

Kamalei, man, your voice is
very comforting to me.

Every time you open
your mouth to sing,

it's like an audible hug.

[ Laughter ]
Man.

When you said, like,
everything's gonna be alright?

I was like, it is!
It's gonna be alright.

I wasn't scared.

Oh, right on.

Awesome to have you
on the show.

Thank you.

You know
I'm your biggest fan.

Oh, thank you so much.
You're strong.

And you convey that strength
in your music and your singing.

Oh, yeah. Lots.
Thank you.

[ Laughs ]

You got an "Oh, yeah."

Oh, yeah.

John: Kamalei, you've covered
Bob Marley now twice.

And I just feel like you're
really honoring his legacy

in such a beautiful way.

You don't attempt
to sound like him.

You're not Ja-faking
your accent or anything.

[ Laughter ]

It's like you're just
coming out here being yourself,

and I'm so happy
I get to work with you.

How about another big hand
for Kamalei Kawa'a.

John: Kamalei's voice
is so warm. It's so inviting.

I feel like Kamalei has
a way of putting his own spice

on every version
of every song that he does.

And I think America's
gonna love Kamalei.

What am I supposed to do?

I can't send all of them
to the lives.

They're making it
so difficult for me.

Oh, yeah,
they're not making it easy.

I wish somebody would suck.

[ Laughter ]

* No woman, no cry *

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the playoffs

at Universal Studios, Hollywood.

Shay: Oh, John. Hey, man.
Well, looky here.

Hey!
What's going on?

I see you guys
got the memo.

Shay: Yeah.
Yeah, got the e-mail.

We thought, like,
if John Legend can wear a robe,

we can all wear robes.

Gray.
Kind of drab.

Well, that's --
You see me,

you see how calm
and cool and comfortable I am.

Hey, Reba.
I was thinking --

Now, this is
what I'm talking about.

You like it?
We needed some color.

Yes!
Who do you guys think

has the best robe on
though right now?

Between Dan and Chance
are two of my favorites.

I really like this gray.
Uh, excuse me.

Well, Reba,
you always look amazing,

so it's not really fair.
John: Yeah.
It's the boots.

Is it?
Yeah, you know what?

Our colors,
they're on the inside.

Let's get out there, guys.

You guys are
definitely not stressed.

I'm the image
of not stressed.

Alright, let's go.

Dan: So, Anya, today,
you'll be singing

one of the best
Taylor Swift songs.

The best, in my opinion.
Yeah, come on.

"All Too Well
(Taylor's Version)."

I'm a fan.
Shay: It's amazing.

I love her words so much.

* And I know
it's long gone and... *

"I know it's long gone, and
the magic's not here no more,

and I might be okay,
but I'm not fine at all."

* ...okay, but I'm not fine
at all *

She wrote it
about relationships,

but to me, it really
reminds me of growing up.

You know, I'm, like, one year
away from being an adult.

I'm leaving for college,
and even being on "The Voice,"

this is, like, the first step
to, like, adulthood.

I am growing up, and it sucks,

but also, like,
the future is so bright.

* Maybe we got lost
in translation *

* Maybe I asked for too much *

Saweetie: I love Anya
because the old soul in her

was balanced with,
like, her innocence.

And I felt like what
she has is a gift from God.

So, it was nice to see someone
so young shine so bright.

* All too well *

Whoo!
Dan: Awesome.

Shay: That was captivating.
It really was.

I would just say, like,

this is a really,
really important round.

No pressure or anything,
but it's, you know --
No pressure.

It's just about being confident
and enunciating those words.

The lyrics are super important
in this song.

Mean what you're saying
and be intentional about it.

Girl, you got
an old soul in there.

Aww, thank you!

And I know, like,
you said it's no pressure,

but it is pressure.

The industry is pressure.

Everything is pressure,
but pressure makes diamonds.

Yeah.
I think you're a diamond.

Thank you.
Do you think so?

Yeah. [ Laughs ]
You better say that
with your chest, girl.

I know, that's right.
Yes.

Saweetie thinks
I'm a diamond. I'm a diamond.

-That's right.
-No, I love that.

But in my opinion,

I don't mind, like,
no eye contact in the beginning.

But as it starts to grow,
just, like,

making that connection with us,

just showcasing your spirit,
your soul, your personality.

People are gonna connect
with that.

We could see
Anya being a huge artist.

I feel like she has a lot
of the intangibles

that Taylor Swift has.

Thank you so much.
You're the best, Anya.

I feel like if Anya brings
the confidence,

the eye contact,
the charisma,

just really connecting
to the DNA of the lyrics...

You're gonna crush it.

...she's gonna be
a strong contender.

We're rooting for Anya.
We love her so much.

Here's Anya True.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* I walked
through the door with you *

* The air was cold *

* But something about it
felt like home somehow *

* And I left my scarf there
at your sister's house *

* And you've still got it
in your drawer even now *

* And I know it's long gone *

* And that magic's not here
no more *

* And I might be okay,
but I'm not fighting it all *

* Oh *

* There we are again
on that little town street *

* You almost ran the red 'cause
you were lookin' over at me *

* Wind in my hair,
I was there *

* I remember it all too well *

* And I know it's long gone *

* And there was
nothing else I could do *

* And I forget about you
long enough *

* To forget why I needed to *

* Maybe we got lost
in translation *

* Maybe I asked for too much *

* But maybe this thing
was a masterpiece *

* Till you tore it all up *

* Running scared,
I was there *

* I remember it all too well *

* And you call me up again *

* Just to break me
like a promise *

* So casually cruel
in the name of being honest *

* I'm a crumpled up
piece of paper lying here *

* I remember it all, all, all *

* Wind in my hair,
you were there *

* You remember it all *

* Down the stairs,
you were there *

* You remember it all *

* It was rare,
I was there *

* I remember it all too well *

* No *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Daly: That is Anya True,
ladies and gentlemen.

Chance, let's start with you.
What'd you think?

I didn't really see you
in a pop space until now.

I've always felt like you had,
like, a very cool,

like, folk-leaning
country sound,

but it was a very cool
performance.

It was good to see.
Thank you.

[ Cheers and applause ]
John?

This felt like
the right song for you.

It's pop,
but it's still, you know,

got some of Taylor's
country heritage in it.

There's a big space
for that kind of music,

and I was really compelled
by the performance.

Thank you so much.
Reba?

You are so sweet.

I loved it when you quit
playing your guitar

and you put your hands
up to your heart.

I knew that you were
really into it.

If you backed up off the mic
just a little bit,

I think I would have been
able to understand

the words a little better.

I love the song,
and I love you singing it.

It was great.
Thank you so much.

I'll work on it.

Your coaches, Dan + Shay.
Guys?

That was my favorite
performance of yours so far.

It's easy to really go over
the top, emulating Taylor Swift.

I didn't feel that at all
from you. I heard Anya.

You absolutely stepped up
and crushed it.

Thank you, Dan.

You have this kind of
Julia Michaels way

that you sing.

I don't know if you are
a fan of hers, like we are.

Yeah, a huge fan.
Thank you.

There's this sharpness
to her voice.

You approach the way
that you sing very similarly.

"Similarly." Is that
how you say that word?

Yeah, that's the adverb version.
It's the adverb?

Well, we don't need to
get into all that.

I don't know what
you're talking about, John.

It's hard sitting next to John
because he's so smart,

and I'm just --
I know words,

but I don't know
what they mean.

I know how to use them.

But no, Anya,
we're such fans.

I feel like
we're your older brothers

over here,
just beaming with pride.

As Reba would say,
you're cute as a button,

and we're just grateful
to have you here on the show.
Thank you, guys.

How about another big hand
for Anya True, everybody?

I just love Anya so much.

She is so sweet

and so talented
beyond her years.

-Great job.
-Come on!

Great job, Anya.

I'll be honest, Dan.

I'm sweating in places

that I didn't know
I could sweat.

We have to send
two people home,

and we love every single person
on our team.

This is just hard, man.
What are we going to do?

I don't know.
I don't know.

Similarly-ly-ly.

It doesn't help that John was
an English major.

Were you an English major?
I was.

I was.
No wonder, dude.

I didn't go to college,
so, guys, I'm trying my best.

[ Laughter ]

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to "The Voice."

John:
So, Bryan is coming next.

He's the guy I saved
with my playoff pass.
Okay.

* Could have had it all *

He's special. I feel like
he could be in the finale.

Sing, Bryan!

You're like,
how is he not already a star?

Daly: We got two steals!

There it is!

The Playoff Pass!

He's such a great vocalist,

but also
a really good performer.

His voice sounds
like the radio.

You're just singing
at such a high level,

but you're also performing
at such a high level.

I'm like, how's this guy
not already

out there making records?
A single, yeah.

Playing arenas
all the time.

Bryan: I know I keep saying
I'm the oldest contestant.

Somehow, I'm still doing music,

but it was always
alongside some other job

to help make that happen.

I've worked at an airline,

out in the tarmac,
pushing the plane,

throwing the bags in.

I was a window washer.

I'm still a good
professional window washer.

You know, if "The Voice"
thing doesn't work out,

you need me, find my number.

You name it,
I've probably done it.

All these things
I hoped to just put together

to make music happen,

and when you're about ready
to throw in the towel,

some cool opportunity
would come up,

right in the nick of time.

And "The Voice," for sure,

is the biggest platform
that I've had.

* I bless the rains
down in Africa *

John:
Bryan is back in the arena.

And I'm so excited.

He's gonna sing
"Africa" by Toto.

* Gonna take some time
to do... *

John: I just love hearing
Bryan's voice

on some classic rock 'n' roll.

The chorus is just so big
and uplifting.

I think this is gonna
really sound great for him.

* I bless the rains... *

I want for John to know
that he made the right decision

in giving me the Playoff Pass.

* I bless the... *

My bad on that last chorus.

Go crazy with it.

Let the background singers
sing the main thing,

and then just structurally
make sure the melodies feel

connected to each other,

and not you trying this
and you trying that.

* I bless the rains
down in Africa *

This is going to be
pretty tough for John

because he needs to pick
only three from five.

Bryan, he's been in the game
for a while.

You can tell.

His vocal range is
from another world.

So, he has to
take advantage of it

and do a great performance.

Bryan: Should I have the guitar
ready for the choruses?

I really love playing the guitar
with my friends and everything,

but on tour,
I don't vibe with it

because I have another vision.

I want to focus in other things.

So, it's fine
if you play the instrument,

if you feel like it's something

that is gonna be a plus
in your show.

Everything you're doing
is intentional and cool.

So, I trust you.

Yeah, I don't need
to waste your time,

even though I'd love to hang.

What are you guys doing later?

You want to hang?
[ Laughter ]

[ Cheers and applause ]

Yeah, Bryan!
Rock Star Ken.

We got Rock Star Ken up here.

Let's go, Bryan!

With "Africa,"
here's Bryan Olesen.

* It's gonna take a lot
to drag me away from you *

* There's nothing that a hundred
men or more could ever do *

* I bless the rains
down in Africa *

* Gonna take some time
to do the things we never had *

* Oh *

**

* I hear the drums
echoing tonight *

* But she hears only whispers
of some silent conversation *

* She's coming in,
12:30 flight *

* The moonlit wings
reflect the stars *

* That guide me
towards salvation *

* I seek to cure
what's deep inside *

* Frightened of this thing
that I've become *

* It's gonna take a lot
to drag me away from you *

* There's nothing that a hundred
men or more could ever do *

* I bless the rains
down in Africa *

* Gonna take some time
to do the things we never had *

**

* Hurry, boy, she's waiting
there for you, oh *

* Sing it *

* Gonna take a lot
to drag me away from you *

* There's nothing that a hundred
men or more could ever do *

* I bless, I bless,
I bless the rain *

* I bless, I bless,
I bless the rain *

* I bless the rains *

* I bless the rains
down in Africa *

* Ahhhh, take the time *

* Take some time to do
the things we never had *

**

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

Daly: Bryan Olesen!

Yes, Bryan!

[ Cheers and applause ]
Yeah!

Dude, you just seem
like you're already a superstar.

You seem like
a guest performer on the show.

It's compelling.
I can't take my eyes off you.

It's not just the pink suit,
but it's that voice.

Thank you.

Alright, Reba,
what'd you think?

We missed you.
I missed you, too.

You're the perfect package,

and I loved you getting
the guitar.

Way to go.
You need to be on the lives.

Definitely.
Thank you.

Alright.
And you are 100% a rock star.

To see somebody that can,
like, control the crowd,

create a moment.

If I was John,
I would definitely

try and move you to lives.

I know I've said
that every time so far.

Your team is doing good.
You got a great team.

Bryan,
you just show up here every time

and make it feel
like we're at Bryan's concert.

You're such a pro.

I feel your intention
in everything you do as well.

I love the way
you took the guitar

in the middle
of the performance.

It just made you
look more like

you were the boss
up on stage.

I'm glad I used
my Playoff Pass on you.

You deserved it.
Thank you, John.
That means a lot.

Give it up
for the man in pink,

Bryan Olesen,
everybody.

Bryan justified
getting that playoff pass.

He delivers every single time.

Yeah.

I'm so proud
of Team Legend.

These performances
have been next level.

Nathan's my throwback
soul artist.

Kamalei is our aloha spirit.

Bryan's my rock star.

All the coaches think all
of them should go to the lives.

This decision is so difficult.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to "The Voice."

John: Y'all having a good time?

[ Cheers and applause ]

My cardigan is
very controversial.

What do you think?
[ Laughter ]

And then he goes, "Ah!"

That was tepid.
He was like, "Ah."

Nah. It was alright.

Shay: It's exciting
to be able to pass along some

of the stupid things
that we've done in our career

to keep them from making
the same mistakes that we did.

I feel like it's an honor
for me to be here,

because giving back
is the purpose

we have in the first place,
you know?

I agree.

We all have
different journeys,

but one thing
that we all,

like, commonly share
is our love for music.

I'm just happy to be
sharing the stage with you guys.

Yeah, likewise.

I'm just so grateful and stoked
to even be in the playoffs.

You are so good.

Olivia: During the battles,
losing on Team John,

but then getting stolen
by Dan + Shay,

it really worked out in
a really cool, beautiful way.

Shay: How much more fun is Team
Dan + Shay than Team Legend?

[ Exhales sharply ]
Come on.

Ooh!
I mean...

Let's go. That's all we need.

You can talk trash here.
That's all
we need in here.

Stop, you guys are gonna
get me in trouble.

Shay: Freaking love Olivia.

Poor John, yeah,
he's probably crying right now.

Yeah!

John: In the knockouts,
Olivia made me regret

ever letting her go.
Whoo!

And I'm a little bit jealous

that Dan + Shay
get to coach her now.

* I'll stand by you,
oh *

Olivia: I'm singing
"I'll Stand By You"
by The Pretenders.

It's really intimate,
but also really powerful.

* For you,
I'll stand by you *

There's such amazing control,
just like,

going from the big stuff,
the high stuff

to those real
intimate moments.

It means a lot.
Thank you.

I like your eyes.
I can get lost in them.

Like, stare at us, the girl.
Point at us.

Like, let us know
you gon' stand by us.

Absolutely.
It's just
an easy little,

* I'll stand by you *

[ Laughter ]

Absolutely.
I ain't about to
play myself.

Do you have any advice
for young women in the biz?

My biggest advice
is not taking no for an answer.

So always fight for the yes,

know your boundaries, never
settle with your standards,

because if you respect you,
the world will respect you,
you know?

Absolutely.
I got that right from Saweetie.

No one can take that away
from me now.

Uh-huh, that's right,
girl.

Shay: Hey!
Dropping facts
over here.

Dropping straight facts.

Olivia:
Saweetie, she's such a boss.

It's a lot of the stuff that
I feel like I needed to hear.

When I really need to evoke
a certain emotion,

it's a good trick.
The more that you feel it,

the more that we feel it.
Olivia: Yeah.

Go all the way.

Totally.

It is so important
to make Dan + Shay proud.

I just want to keep
bumping it up,

making them more excited
to keep having me on their team

and hopefully get them a win.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Daly: Now it's time
for the pop-rocker

from Delaware
who's taking on a rock classic.

Singing "I'll Stand By You,"
here's Olivia Rubini.

Yeah, Olivia!

**

* Oh, why you look so sad? *

* Tears are in your eyes *

* Come on and come to me now *

* Don't be ashamed to cry *

* Let me see you through *

* 'Cause I've seen
the dark side too *

* When the night falls on you *

* You don't know what to do *

* Nothing you confess *

* Could make me love you less *

* I'll stand by you *

[ Cheers and applause ]

* I'll stand by you *

* Won't let nobody hurt you *

* I'll stand by you *

**

* So if you're mad, get mad *

* Don't hold it all inside *

* Come on and come to me now *

* Hey, what you got to hide? *

* I get angry too *

* Well, I'm a lot like you *

* And when *

* When the night falls on you,
baby *

* You're feeling all alone *

* You won't be on your own *

* I'll stand by you *

* I'll stand
by you *

* Won't let nobody hurt you *

* I'll stand by you *

* Take me into
your darkest hour *

* And I'll never desert you *

* I'll stand by you *

* I'll stand
by you *

* Won't let nobody hurt you *

* I'll stand by you *

* I'll stand
by you *

* Won't let nobody hurt you *

* I'll stand by you *

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

Daly: There's Olivia Rubini,
everybody.

Give it up for her!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Chance, talk to us.

You have a very, like --
like,

Stevie Nicks, rockstar,
'70s vibe to you.

And I think you do have
a great voice,

and that's
why you've come so far.

Thank you.

But I wish there was
a little bit more dynamics

and just, like, a little
bit more of your range.

And I think Dan + Shay
have a lot to think about.

Thank you.

And let's go
to your former coach, John.

Olivia, you're always
such a wonderful singer.

Thank you.

And I feel like you were doing
little things with your voice

and with your body
to try to kind of find, like,

some rock 'n roll in this song.

I just feel
like maybe this song wasn't

the best song for this moment.

Thank you.
Alright, Olivia,
let's hear your coaches,

Team Dan + Shay.

Olivia, first of all,
we've loved you, you know,

since the beginning
of this competition,

when we got to steal you.

As far as, like,

the high stuff that
you like to do, like, I dig it.

He's gonna be trying to do that.

I'll be trying to do that
immediately after this.

I'll be trying to do it.

I feel like you have
so much originality.

There's no one else in this
competition that sings like you.

You're awesome.
Thank you so much.

Good job, Olivia.
Thank you so much.

Another big hand
for Olivia Rubini!

Ladies and gentlemen.

Shay: Olivia was a steal
from Team Legend in the battle,

so it's really cool
to see her growth, you know.

Whenever she's finally
able to have a good coach,

you know.
Aw!

I was kidding.
It was amazing.

Yes, Olivia.

Shay:
She's just such
a great singer,

and I feel like
she has so much potential,

but I'm feeling incredible
about Team Dan + Shay.

Dan: I would say Karen is more
of our country leading singer.

Anya, I really love her voice.

It has so much uniqueness.

Olivia's got this, like,
retro throwback sound to her.

They're making this decision,
like, literally impossible.

She's like, I got to win
this competition!

Pretty voice, though.
Yeah. I really like her.

**

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly:
Welcome back to the playoffs.

Let's get it.
Leyenda.

[ Laughs ]
Wow, yeah. Juan Legenda.

Yeah.
You'll be Juan Legenda.

Juan Leyenda, yeah.
My name is Juan, too.

Ah, nice.
So Juan Legenda y Don Juan.

Let's get it.

Alright, it's happening.
Juan Legenda.

[ Laughter ]

Man: Ready ready?
Yes.

I'm ready.

**

Mafe, look who's here!
Hola,Mafe.

Maluma!

How are you?
Hola, I'm good.

Seeing Maluma was insane.

Latino, Latino power right here.

Mafe: He comes from Colombia,
and I'm from Venezuela,

and Colombia and Venezuela are
brothers and sisters.

Like, we are the same people.

How are you?
How do you feel?

I feel great, honestly.

And it was so easy
to talk to him.

It felt right.

VamosVenezuela.
Venezuela, let's go.

Venezuela en la casa.

Your accent is good, bro.
I took Spanish class,
you know.

I heard the song
that you do with --
With Sebastián.

And I've done one
with Juanes.

Yeah.
A couple of your
fellow Colombians.

Yeah.
That means
me and you next.

Yes, please.
Me and you next.

Let's get it.

* Never mind,
I'll find someone like you *

I'm gonna be singing
"Someone Like You" by Adele.

It is a very challenging song
because it's fast

and is a lot of words
that are hard for me to say.

But I'm going to show
the coaches

absolutely everything I've got.

What do you if you think
if we want a half step up?

Yeah.

'Cause there's a lot of time
in that lower part of the song,

'cause your voice is
really quiet down there.

Everybody thinks
that it is more difficult

to sing up there, right?

It's always more difficult
to sing lower.

When I do "Ordinary People,"

like, the end of the song is one
of the lowest notes --

I have to, like,
really take a breath.

That's going to be the key --
somehow finding a way

to gather yourself
and then support those quiet,

low notes at the very end.

* Would I *

John:
I picked this song for Mafe

because this is
a classic ballad.

You've got to be
able to handle the classics.

* Someone like you *
Sing it, Mafe!

I really believed
she could do it justice.

Whoo!

Whoo! That's why
he's Juan Legenda.

[ Laughter ]
Legend,
you know what I mean?

He knew about
the key.

It is stunning.
Like, I was about to cry.

It was like, 'cause
you had me under your spell.

Don't break that spell.

I'm here just to say
that I'm proud of you

as a Latino because
for us coming to the states

becoming a big star is not easy.

So I just want to give a big
applause to all the Latinos

that are watching me right now,
guys.

Congratulations.
We're here working hard.

Doing it.
Yeah.

Maluma, stop!

John: Mafe!

With "Someone Like You,"
here's Mafe.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* I heard that
you're settled down *

* That you found a girl
and you're married now *

* I heard that
your dreams came true *

* Guess she gave you things
I didn't give to you *

* I hate to turn up
out of the blue, uninvited *

* But I couldn't stay away,
I couldn't fight it *

* I had hoped
you'd see my face *

* And that you'd be reminded
that for me, it isn't over *

* Never mind,
I'll find someone like you *

* I wish nothing
but the best for you, too *

* "Don't forget me," I beg *

* I remember you said *

* "Sometimes it lasts in love" *

* "But sometimes
it hurts instead" *

* "Sometimes it lasts in love" *

* "But sometimes
it hurts instead" *

* Nothing compares,
no worries or cares *

* Regrets and mistakes,
they're memories made *

* Who would have known how
bittersweet this would...

* ...taste? *

* Never mind,
I'll find someone like you *

* I wish nothing
but the best for you, too *

* "Don't forget me," I beg *

* I remember you said *

* "Sometimes it lasts in love" *

* "But sometimes
it hurts instead" *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Man, beautiful.

Daly: There's Mafe,
ladies and gentlemen.

Beautiful.

Reba,
what did you think?

I just absolutely loved it.

And I also loved
that you stayed stationary

and just let your voice do
the convincing.

Yeah.
You really sold it to me.

So, boy, I think you need to--
Ep! Up!

Go to the lives.
Nah!

Chance?
She should go to the lives.

[ John shouting, laughter ]

I think your fellow coaches
are making it harder for you.

Oh, man.

This is a song that everybody's
heard a million times.

So we notice when you do
something really cool

and make a great choice.

That was fantastic, Mafe.

I agree with what
everyone's saying.

My only thing
that was distracting to me was,

in a song like this
that is so iconic,

all of the liberties that you
took, it moved too much,

and that's
just personal preference.

You're entitled to be wrong.
It's fine.

[ Laughter ]

You're entitled
to wearing sleeping clothes.

It's a free country.

But you're such
an amazing singer.

You should definitely go to
the lives.

Thank you so much.
Wow.

You could have
just said that.

What am I supposed to do?

Everybody keeps coming up here
being their very best selves.

And I disagree with Shay.
I thought the moments

when you took a few
melodic liberties were tasteful.

They didn't take me
out of the feeling of the song.

I love working with you, Mafe.
You're fantastic.

Give it up one more time
for Mafe, everybody.

To have this quality
of a team is astronomical.

I don't know what John's
gonna do.
Very good.

Chance:
Mafe did amazing.

I just love how
she always changes the song up

and makes it her own.

Seeing Team Legend
and Team Dan + Shay

makes me
a little nervous

'cause I know I got to make
these kind of

decisions next week.

So good. Love her singing.

Lot of back
to back show stoppers.

Yeah. Who do you send home
from that group?

**

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

We got Tae coming up next.

Yes. This is Tae's first round
on Team Dan + Shay.

Oh, wow.
We got him from Team Reba.

He's a country singer through
and through.

Just a great entertainer,
great spirit, very charismatic.

I'm gonna go with
Dan + Shay.

[ Dan and Shay cheering ]

Reba is really
gonna regret letting Tae go.

Man, congratulations.
I wouldn't let y'all down.

We had to get him
on Team Dan + Shay

'cause he has so much talent.

Let's bring him in.
Yeah, let's bring him in.

Jinx.
[ Laughs ]

All: Hey!

Tae, yes!

That's my guy.
Yo, it's Saweetie.

Yes, sir.

[ Tae and Saweetie cheering ]

It's crazy now
that I am in front of people

I grew up listening to --
Dan + Shay, as well as Saweetie.

It's a dream come true.

I've been listening to y'all
for so long.

I've, like, put y'all
on my vision board.

You're gonna make us cry,
dude.
No, I'm serious.

Like, and so this is
like a huge pivotal thing that,

like, I'm on y'all team now.

I'm just so happy. I'm so
excited that I'm on they team.

I really am.
What are you singing today?

I am singing
"Running Out of Moonlight"

by none other than Randy Houser.

I actually sing this song
when I go and perform.

This is, like, my opener.
I'd love to see it.

* Come on, baby,
don't ya keep me waitin' *

* I gotta go,
I got a reservation *

* Tailgate for two
underneath the stars *

Tae: I learned this song
from my brother.

We were arguing because
I had moved away from home.

It was hard for him
to understand why I left.

He showed me the song
because the song talks about,

you don't have a lot of time
to waste,

just spend as much time
as you can with each other.

And so it was that moment

I just fell in love
with that song.

* Come on, come on, come on,
we're runnin' outta moonlight *

Tae was such a burst of joy.

I wasn't expecting
his voice to be that big.

His presence is really strong.

If he was at a bar,
I would be captivated.

* Oh *

[ All cheering ]
We run out of moonlight.

* Running out of moonlight *

I like it. Thank you
for introducing me

further into
the country genre.

Absolutely.

It's such a perfect performance
to me.

I want to challenge you.

I want you to try
different moods.

Whatever personality
you want to tap into...

Okay.

...just challenge yourself
and be like, I want to go here.

I want to pull back.
I want to be light.

I want to be dark.

I want to be louder,
a little quieter.

If we're trying
to do some different stuff,

I feel like you could take
that mic off the stand

and move it, like, work it
around the stage a little bit,

too, if you weren't tethered
to that guitar.

I'm-a try it without the
guitar and see what y'all think.

Okay.

There's already a Randy Houser.

When you start trying to chase
what somebody else is doing,

you've already lost,
'cause you have to be 100%,

and you have to find out
exactly what that is.

* Oh, baby,
don't it feel so right *

* Come on, now, we're runnin'
outta moonlight *

If Tae makes this performance
his own,

really shows us
who Tae is as an artist...

* We're running out
of moonlight *

I feel like he's
a really strong contender

to move forward
to the live shows.

Whoo!
Yeah! I like that.

I like that,
'cause you know what?

You went from great performer
to great storyteller.

We grateful to have you
on team, Dan + Shay, dude.

Let's go. Let's get it popping.

With "Running Out of Moonlight,"
here's Tae Lewis.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

Yeah!

Here we go.

* Don't you worry 'bout getting
fixed up *

* When you wake up,
you're pretty enough *

* Look out your window,
that’s a cloud of dust *

* That's my headlights,
that's my truck *

* Come on, baby,
don't ya keep me waitin' *

* I gotta go,
I got a reservation *

* Tailgate for two
underneath the stars *

* Kiss on your lips
when you're in my arms *

Background singers:
* Whoa, oh, oh *

* Come on, girl,
every now and then *

* You get a night like this *

* Whoa, oh, oh *

* Come on, this is one that we
don't want to miss, no *

* Come on, baby, let me take
you on a night ride *

* Windows down,
sittin' on my side *

* Tick tock, now we're knockin'
on midnight *

* Me and you, girl,
runnin' outta moonlight *

* I wanna hold you till
the break of dawn *

* And hear the crickets sing
a riverside love song *

* Hey baby all we got
is all night *

* Come on now,
we're runnin' outta moonlight *

* Yeah *

* Ooh, girl, I bet you thought
I lost my mind *

* Out of the blue pullin'
into your drive *

* Into your drive *

* Wonderin' why I got ya
way out here *

* Have you ever seen
a sky this clear? *

* Whoa, oh, oh *

* Girl, you never looked better
than you do right now *

* Whoa, oh, oh *

* Aw, heaven let your light
shine down, yeah *

[ Cheers and applause ]

* Come on, baby, let me
take you on a night ride *

* Windows down,
sittin' on my side *

* Tick tock, now we're knockin'
on midnight *

* Me and you, girl, runnin'

* Yeah *

* Oh, baby,

* Come on now, we're runnin'

* Oh, baby,

* Come on, come on, come on,
we're runnin' outta moonlight *

* Whoa, oh, oh *

* Hey, yeah, we're runnin
outta moonlight, say *

* Whoa, oh, oh *

* Oh, oh, oh *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Yes, sir!
Let's go!

**

Whoa.
Yeah.

You feel the playoff
fever pitch, John.

John: He's just trying
to tell Dan + Shay

y'all know
what y'all need to do.

[ Laughter ]

Everybody just
kind of leans forward

when you walk in the room

because they want to know
what you're gonna do next.

Lives, absolutely.
That's my vote.

Noted.
Aw, man!

Chance: This was like your
most soulful performance.

You were doing, like,
the nay-nay kind of, like,

halfway, like,
around the stage the whole time.

That's the dance -- that's
the dance I was talking about.

Come on.
I would put him
on my live team.

Shay:
How about that?

You're an amazing
tenor vocalist.

You really showcased
your range in this.

I had this just fire
in my belly.

It might have been the tacos
I had for lunch,

but I'm not sure.

You are so fantastic, man,

and I am so proud
that you're on Team Dan + Shay.

Dan: You said,
"I won't let you guys down.

I'll make you proud."

And you did not let us
down today.

You made us damn proud
up here on the stage.

Let's go!
Come on, another round
for Tae Lewis.

Come on!
Come down.

Reba: Tae has a very special
place in my heart.

Way to go.

I just absolutely love his
energy, his attitude, his try.

He's got more try than
about anybody I know.

Tae proved that he deserved
our steal in the knockouts.

He immediately became one
of the best on Team Dan + Shay.

Sometimes, you got
to convince people on stage.

That's what he did.
I like him.

I think you got to put him
through, bro.

**

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the playoffs.

What do you think
the chances are both you

and I getting in that robe?

Hey, we can fit.
We can fit.

[ Laughter ]

We have the great
global superstar Maluma here

to be our advisor
for Team Legend.

I'm Team Legend right now.
You already know, right?

Yeah.
For life.

So we're gonna do
some "Iris" by Goo Goo Dolls.

It's not exactly country.

Are you gonna country-fy
it a little bit?

I do want to turn it
into a ballad.

Yeah.
I'm a piano player.

I love the stripped-down,
dreamy vibe.

Yeah.
I think that's your zone.

Sounds like stuff
that I write.

Do you write a lot?
I do.

I think my main thing
I want to do is be a songwriter.

You ever released
your own songs?

I have, like,
videos on social media.

That's the way I started,
man.
Yeah.

* I'd give up forever
to touch you *

* 'Cause I know that
you feel me somehow *

Zoe -- She's so young, and
she reminds me when I started.

* And all I can taste
is this moment *

Yeah.
I like that.

Her voice reminds me,
like, a cloud,

like, the sky is so sweet,
so beautiful.

She's great.

* And I don't want the world
to see me *

Zoe:
Before being on the show,

I was just a girl in Louisiana,
writing songs in her room.

I've been a part of this band
with my fiance,

his brother,
and all of our musician friends.

Performing with people you love
is such a rare experience.

* I just want you to know
who I am *

Now I'm working
with John Legend and artists

like Maluma, performing
for all of America?

All of my dreams
are coming true.

It's just super cool
to have this platform.

Take advantage
of your lower voice.

You know what I mean?

Because it's so beautiful,
because we're always paying

attention to the higher notes,
right?

But once you hit
the lower notes, for me,

that's one of my favorite parts
of this whole performance,

too, so pay attention to it.

Yeah.

John: I like how conversational
you make it.

We were both looking at each
other when we were doing that.

We're like, yeah. That's it.

It gives you room to grow into,
like, the big belt-y stuff.

You're so close.
I feel like it's at 90% now.

Just make sure you are breathing
to support all those big notes

because occasionally, you're
like, pushing a little bit.

Breathing to support all
of that will make it 100%.

Maluma, you started so young.

I just wanted to ask
what was it like for you,

and if you have any advice for,
like, young artists.

Talent without discipline
is nothing.

So, for me,
discipline is first.

Keep writing
your own songs

because that's something that
not every artist could do it.

You're gonna make it.
You're full of talent.

Congratulations.

Thank you so much
for sharing.

I'm so excited for you, Zoe.

Zoe,
I just feel like she's growing

and getting more confident
with each round,

and I'm excited
to see what she'll do next.

It was so nice to meet you.
Bye, Zoe.

Will Zoe step up once again
and sing her way into the lives?

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

Now, it's a '90s rock hit

by Team Legend's Louisiana
pop singer Zoe Levert.

**

* I'd give up forever to
touch you *

* 'Cause I know
that you feel me somehow *

* You're the closest to heaven
that I'll ever be *

* And I don't wanna go home
right now *

* And all I can taste
is this moment *

* And all I can breathe
is your life *

* And sooner or later,
it's over *

* I just don't wanna miss you
tonight *

* And I don't want the world
to see me *

* 'Cause I don't think
that they'd understand *

* When everything's made
to be broken *

* I just want you to know
who I am *

Yeah!
I do like Zoe, man.

* And you can't fight the tears
that ain't coming *

* Or the moment of truth
in your lies *

* When everything feels
like the movies *

* Yeah, you bleed just to know
you're alive *

* And I don't want the world
to see me *

* 'Cause I don't think
that they'd understand *

* When everything's made
to be broken *

* I just want you to know
who I am *

* Oh, and I don't want the world
to see me *

* 'Cause I don't think
that they'd understand *

* When everything's made to be
broken *

* I just want you to know
who I am *

* I just want you
to know who I am *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Daly: Zoe Levert!
Put the coaches on their feet,

always a good sign.

That was so good!

That was crazy.
Oh, my God.

Wow.
Daly: Chance,
let's start with you.

That was my favorite
performance, man.

Oh, my God.

Thank you.

I'm not super
familiar with this song,

but I feel
like you should cover it,

and you should
probably put it out.

It was that good.
I like it a lot.

When it comes to the lives,

like, I've said for every
single person that's gone on.

[ Laughter ]

No, you don't know
what I'm gonna say.

You should send her
to the lives.

[ Laughter ]

When she performs, it's such
a, like, captivating thing.

You want somebody
that can spearhead your team,

and I feel like that
might be Zoe.

Thank you so much.
Daly: Dan + Shay?

Zoe,
that was unbelievable.

I've loved honestly, every
performance that you've done.

You were feeling every bit
of this moment.

And that matters so much
in the playoffs.

The stakes are so high.

There's so much talent,
and everybody watching

at home
knows who you are.

Bravo. Amazing.

Thank you.
Daly: Reba?

Boy, you brought it,
and I was like,

"Oh, my gosh, this gal is
somebody to reckon with."

Your voice,
your stage presence, your look.

I could listen to you
all night long.

You've just got that kind
of voice I never get tired of.

Absolutely beautiful.

John, your artists tonight
have been incredible.

This is your last artist.
Hey, hey, hey.

I'm sorry.
Hey, hey, hey.

John, you ought to
take her to the lives.

[ Laughter ]

Queen Reba, thank you.

Like the little pronunciations
and tonal things you were doing,

they just made it sound
like this is prime time.

I want to hear a record
with this voice on it.

You look like. "I am ready
for this moment,

and I want you to know
who I am."

Congratulations, Zoe.

Another big hand for
Zoe Levert!

John: I just feel like Zoe
is becoming a star
before our eyes.

I'm so impressed.
Wow!

[ Judges cheering ]

She crushed it.

But we can only take
three into the lives.

It's gonna be
some tough decisions,

and then it's on America.

Sounds like
superstar country.

Yeah, yeah.
Better and better every time.

**

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly:
Welcome back to the playoffs.

I feel like
you gave our team, like,

life lessons that they can take
with them on this competition,

but, like,
beyond this competition.

Just really, really good advice.

Well, I think the beautiful
thing about this show

is artists helping artists
we see ourselves in them.

Totally.
So it's like,
that's where it comes from.

I'm like, what would
I want someone to tell me?

Yeah.

Dan: So we've got Madison
coming up next.

She has been one
of our favorites

since the very beginning --
a person who just, like,

radiates light and positivity.

[ Singing in Spanish ]

I can see Madison being
successful

in the music industry.

Her voice is consistent.
It's dynamic.

It's engaging.
It's endearing.

Daly: We got a steal!

Oh, we've got something better!

She deserves
our Playoff Pass in a big way,

and I think she's gonna
make us proud.

I feel like you guys somehow
picked, like, the perfect song,

'cause this song reminds me
of my dad so much.

* Till the landslide
brought me down *

Madison: I'm singing "Landslide"
by Fleetwood Mac.

I think about my dad
when I sing it.

I'm just so proud of him,
like he's proud of me.

My dad's just sacrificed a lot.

He drives trucks
every day just to provide

the most beautiful life for us,

and he always just reminds us
that we're of love.

* And I'm getting older, too *

As we get older,
so do our parents.

And he is getting older,
and I just hope I can one day

be able to provide
for him the way

that he provided for me.

Standing ovation.
That's so --

I'm, like, shaking.

I have chills, dude.
That was so good.

Thank you, guys.
Thank you.

I could tell you
were thinking about your dad.

I was -- oh, man.
That was incredible.

That literally stopped me in
my tracks and just blew me away.

I hope he loves it as much
as I love singing it.

I think that's my favorite thing
I've ever heard.

I'm about to tear up right now.

If I know that Dan + Shay
saw my heart,

I can't imagine what
America would think about it,

so I'm excited.

If I were just to give you
this one little note --

I began to know you more
towards the end of the song.

Mm-hm.

And I would just want to see
more

of that Puerto Rican
personality.

Right.

'Cause the voice is
also symbolic of just

where you come from,
your heritage.

Madison is very special.
She felt like a little sister.

I think the fact
that she's that young

and by having the presence
that she has already,

that she's destined
for great things.

Dan: There's a reason
that you are our Playoff Pass,

and I want you to go into
this performance knowing that,

keeping that in the back
of your mind,

being confident
and just being yourself.

With "Landslide,"
here's Madison Curbelo.

**

* I took my love,
I took it down *

* I climbed a mountain
and I turned around *

* And I saw my reflection
in the snow-covered hills *

* Till the landslide brought me
down *

* Oh, mirror in the sky *

* What is love? *

* Can the child within my heart
rise above? *

* Can I sail through
the changin' ocean tides? *

* Can I handle the seasons
of my life? *

[ Cheers and applause ]

* Well, I've been afraid
of changin' *

* 'Cause I've built my life
around you *

* But time makes you bolder *

* Even children get older *

* And I'm getting older too *

* Oh, I'm getting older, too *

* Take my love, take it down *

* Oh-oh, if I climbed a mountain
and I turned around *

* And I saw my reflection
in the snow-covered hills *

* Till the landslide
brought me down *

* And if you see my reflection
in the snow-covered hills *

[ Cheers and applause ]

* Well, the landslide will
bring it down *

* Oh-ohh, the landslide
will bring it down *

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

Daly: Madison Curbelo
wraps it up for Team Dan + Shay

in the playoffs.

I got chills.
You gave me goose bumps.

I love your voice.

Thank you so much.

I wanted to cry a little bit.

Yeah.
Just a little bit.

No, I'm actually
going to ask the producers

if I could get a copy
of that performance

'cause I want to listen to it
again.

It was really, really special.
Thank you so much.

And Carson,
if it was up to me.

Yeah, Chance?

I would be sending her
to the lives.

John: Hey, alright now.

-High praise from Chance.
-High praise, yeah.

That's rare -- he never says
that, so that's --

Well, Madison, what you did
up there was so beautiful

because it felt so easy
coming from you.

You're amazing.
You should go to the lives.

It's obvious.

Wow.
Thank you so much.

Dan + Shay,
what are you going to do?

Dan: Unreal.

I'm so glad we gave
you the Playoff Pass

because you truly showed up
and show that you deserved it.

There's just something
about your voice

that carries more
than just notes.

It doesn't just go to my ears.
It goes straight to my soul.

That was the first time today
that I got chills.

I never get the chills.

Maybe when I'm listening to
John Legend sing sometimes.

Me? Moi?
And yeah, I know.

It's rare that I say
something nice about him.

Oh, man.

And when I do get the chills,
I also wear my bathrobe.

Yeah.

Completely appropriate.
Convenient.

Maybe you're sick.
I can talk
about you all night.

I'm so proud
that you're part of our team,

and that's all
I have to say.

Thank you.
Awesome.

Thank you so much.

An impossible decision is coming
up from these teams over here.

Another big hand
for Madison Curbelo!

Ladies and gentlemen.

Dan: I was absolutely blown
away by Madison's

performance of "Landslide."

So good, Madison.
Amazing, Madison.

Shay: Moving forward
to these live shows,

we have to think about
who has been consistent

throughout the performances
and that we know can deliver.

Someone help us.
Help!

They have to make
this decision hard.
Help us make
this decision please.

**

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

Alright, everybody. We've just
seen 5 incredible performances

from Team Dan + Shay.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Unfortunately, only three
can represent Dan + Shay

in the live shows,
in the top 12.

How are you feeling
in this moment?

I'm sure it's tough.

Dan: My heart is beating
out of my chest.

I'm getting emotional now.

Y'all have made us so happy
and so proud.

Thank you, guys,

for trusting us
to be your coaches.

Nice work.
Now, the hard work.

Dan + Shay, who is
the first artist moving on?

The very, very first artist
that is moving on to the lives

is Madison.

Madison, congratulations!

You are in the top 12.

How in the world would
you not let Madison through

to the live shows?

Congratulations.

Shay: There's just something
about her voice.

You feel it in your soul
and your heart.

And that's an important thing
moving into these live shows.

Thank you.
Dan: We'll see you soon.

So well deserved.

Alright, Dan + Shay, who is
the next artist moving on?

**

This is so tough.
I know.

The second artist advancing
to the lives

is Karen.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Karen also
moving on to the live shows.

Dan: We moved Karen forward

'cause she delivered
an absolutely

incredible performance.

She is so consistent.
She is someone we can depend on.

That's what you need, moving
forward to the live shows.

Dan + Shay, who is
your last artist moving on?

I was okay till now.

This is a very, very
difficult decision right now.

The third artist moving
on to the lives...

**

Tae.

Tae Lewis.
Congratulations.

You're in the top 12
of Team Dan + Shay.
Yeah, Tae!

I know when
those live shows come around,

the lights come on, the cameras
are on Tae, he's gonna deliver.

He is so exciting.

He is so energetic,

and he wants this almost more
than anybody

on this entire competition.

And another big hand
for team Dan + Shay.

I love you so much.
I love y'all so much.

Dan: I feel like we've built
connections and relationships

with everybody
on Team Dan + Shay,

and to have to see a few
of those artists go home

is heartbreaking, and it just
really makes our decision tough.

I have no doubt that there's
the winner of "The Voice"

is on Team Dan + Shay.
Let's go.

I'll tell you that right now.

Here they are,
Team Legend.

Come on out.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

This is going to be a tough
decision for our friend John.

Guys,
great work tonight.

John, what would you like
to say to Team Legend?

You all took the feedback
that we gave you in rehearsals.

You took all
of your passion and ingenuity,

and you poured it into
beautiful performances tonight,

and I'm very proud of you.

Thank you.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Daly: Well said, Coach.
We have decisions to make.

We do have decisions to make.

my favorite in this round.

You earned it.

I was waiting

she needed to do.

Alright,
it is the moment of truth,

three incredible artists
are left.

You can only take one more.

Nobody deserves to go home.

You're all amazing, and this is
only part of your journey.

the lives for Team Legend...

Bryan is a star.

And whenever I'm watching
him perform,

I feel like I'm at Bryan's
concert.

His presence on stage
is so confident.

His voice is amazing.

Brian deserves to be

You got this.

I can't wait to see
what we do next together.

for America to vote,

and we're gonna prove
that we belong in this moment.

Go Team Legend.

Nice work, John.

All these performances
