Hi. How you doing?

Hey, everybody.
That not the cutest thing?

Isn't it fun?

Man, I'm totally excited
about my first ever knockouts.

To be able to put
three artists in at one time

and see which one comes out
on top.

Daly: Give it up for your
Season 26 coaches!

Ow!

These knockouts
are going to be insane.

Oh, my God.

The first time ever
we have two mega mentors

for the knockouts.

Look what I got.

* If I ever lose my faith *

I brought a special guest.

Yes, you did.
You did.

Needs no introduction.

Snoop Dogg: Sting.
One of the GOATs.

One of the epitomes of music.

I'm honored to have him here.

Look at who's here,
you guys.

Gwen:
My artists are just so lucky

to get a Grammy Award winning
icon,

Sting, to give them advice.

He's a rarity.

He took all these different
genres

to create this new sound
that's not been heard before.

I think this jacket
is actually constricting you.

There you go, I knew it.

I'm a bit jealous of those arms,
actually.
[ Laughs ]

Hi!
Oh, my goodness.

I'm back.
I'm starstruck over here.

Michael: I mean,
Jennifer Hudson does it all --

music, television, stage,
movies.

Let's get into it.

Reba: She's an EGOT, and
she was a coach on "The Voice."

She's so talented
and so knowledgeable.

Use the instrument
as if you're running away.

[ Vocalizing ]
I love this.

Michael: I don't think
there could be a better person

that could help coach
for my team.

Listen, listen.
Reba: [ Laughs ]

Snoop Dogg: It's A-game time.

This ain't no time
to be horsing around.

When you sing, you bring out
the Gangster Holy Ghost in me.

Gwen: This is a really amazing
part of the show

where the top rise to the top.

That was flawless.
I think you could be
the winner of "The Voice."

Security might have to come
get me

because I'm, like,
a super fan.

I haven't had this hard a time
since I've been on the show.

It's like my daughter's
up there, man.

That's what this feels like.

Daly: One, two, three steals

and a save!
Yeah!

I told you this
was gonna be a good show.

These contestants should be
real excited to see you today.

And being
that you were a teacher,

you should be able to give
them a lot of knowledge, right?

I was a school teacher before
I was a professional singer.

Snoop Dogg: Teacher, teacher.
Tell me how you're doing.

And people learn
through enthusiasm.

And the teacher's job
is to be enthusiastic

and just give little hints.

So I'm happy I'm here.

You got the double S in
the building -- Sting and Snoop.

One thing I respect about you
is that you allow

young artists to use your music
to sample it, to recreate it.

It's something
I've always welcomed.

They're still alive because
people kept reinterpreting

and rerecording them.

And you've just recorded
one of my songs.

It's 40 years old.
And it's a standard.

That's a standard.
Mm. So today,
we have Austyns.

He was a guy that I stole

'cause he was
an exceptional vocalist.

And then Christina Eagle,

she's a great performer,
a great singer.

And the last one was Jake,
this country boy right here.

His voice is a strong
country voice.

Fantastic.
Yeah.

Snoop Dogg:
I put those three together

'cause they project emotion.

I feel like people will leave
with some sort of feeling

after hearing these
three singers sing.

Send them out.

Hello.
It is my three amigos.

Oh, my God.
Sting: Hello.

Hi, I'm Christina.
Nice to meet you.

Man, Sting standing right there.
I almost peed my pants.

I was lost for words.

Well, as you see,
I brought a special guest.

Yes, you did.
You did.

Needs no introduction.

Definitely grew up
with "Roxanne,"

"Every Breath You Take."
This guy is a worldwide icon.

I wanted to bring
in a professional,

somebody that really,
really know what to say,

when to say it,
and how to say it.

No pressure.
None.

Sting done done everything.
He done done Broadway,

won Grammys.

With all that knowledge,

I'll use it
to my coaching advantage

so I can get me a W
at the end of the season

'cause I want that trophy.

Jake, what you're singing
and why you singing it?

I'm singing "Going, Going, Gone"
by Luke Combs.

Ooh.
This is a song
that lyrically,

it just takes you
on this journey.

Come on, Jake.
Give me some.
Yes, sir.

I need to hear.

* Some things in life
are meant to fly *

**

* Others,
they were born to run *

This song,
it's one of my favorites.

I love the storytelling aspect.

It's about relationships
that didn't work out.

* ...changing of the seasons *

My wife and I,
we got married at 18 years old,

but it wasn't like we didn't
have relationships before then.

If it wasn't for those broken
relationships along the way,

I wouldn't be married
to my beautiful wife

and have the four kids
that we have today.

I know that she's the love
of my life

and the person
that I'll be with forever.

* That girl is going, going,
gone *

[ Grunts ]
Oh, oh!

Yes!
That's country at its finest.

I just close my eyes and just
listen to you sing to me, Jake.
[ Laughs ]

You gotta really love it when
somebody can take their time

and find a song
that really fits them

and then they can actually bring
it to life and you feel it.

I'm always jealous
when I hear a singer

who's equally comfortable
in the baritone range

and in the tenor range.

It's fantastic you can do that.

You know, for me, the essence
of all music is surprise.

When you approach a song,

look for something different
every time you sing the song.
That's powerful.

It could be incremental,
only maybe you would notice it.

That's the constant quest for
a singer, to find something new

in a song you may have sung
a hundred times.

That's really good.
When you sing it,

sing it for the one
that messed up.

I bet it get better
if you sing it to her

'cause you know who her is,
we don't. [ Laughs ]

I know who --
I know she's singing to him.
[ Laughter ]

I'm a huge fan of Sting.

He's equivalent to like,
the Beatles and Elvis.

He blew me away.

That really helps me,
personally.

Hey, y'all made me go
after that. [ Chuckles ]
[ Laughs ]

Christina,
you are a born superstar.

This is what you do.

I appreciate that.

So I'm singing "My Church,"
and I ain't kidding.

I'm trying to take
these people to church.

Praise God.
Amen.

* I've cussed on a Sunday *

* I've cheated, and I've lied *

As an artist,
I want to be a country singer.

And I love the way Maren Morris
shows authenticity in her music.

So this song really touches
my heart.

* When I put this car in drive *

This song is about her church
not being in a building,

and that has been my experience.

I have gotten in my car,
turned that music on,

and I have felt the Holy Ghost.

* Can I get an amen? *
I still sing at multiple
churches.

I also gig on the weekends
with my brother, Daniel.

So coming into this,
it's been crazy.

* I find my soul revival *

When I sing this song
at my gigs, everybody's up.

And so, to win this knockout,

I gotta make sure Snoop Dogg
feels that Holy Ghost.

When it comes to the real thing,
I want Snoop to be up.

* I guess that's my church *

[ Applause ]

Hallelujah.
Yes, Lord.

Christina:
Hallelujah! Praise him.

Glory, hallelujah.
Praise God.

I'd like to thank
Sister Christina Eagle

for that beautiful selection.
Whoo!

The way you dance on stage,
your presence, you a star.

Did you see
the show-woman-ship?
Both: [ Laugh ]

Thank you.
[ Laughs ]

Music is how I connect
to the spirit, so thank you.

I've been touring
for half a century,

and you can be exhausted
before a show,

but as soon as you walk on stage
in front of an audience,
you're healed.

I hope all of these people
have that feeling eventually.

Let me hear how the first verse
go acapella real quick.

* I cussed on a Sunday *

* I've cheated, and I've lied *

* Lied *
[ Laughs ]

You know what I'm saying?
I need that.

You quitting
too soon, like...
Oh, I got you.

You gotta make it yours.
You're right.

And that's your tone.

And please don't be afraid
of that growl.

That growl made me get up.
I don't just get up to get up.
Whoo. Come on.

Come on.
You got to make me get up.

I'd be at church every Sunday
if you sang there.
Thank you.

[ Laughs ] Amen to that.
[ Laughing ]

Fly, Eagle. Fly.
Yes. I'm flying.

What makes me a little nervous
about Christina is her tone.

It catches an ear, and
when Christina starts singing,

you're going to turn around.
It's nerve wracking.

[ Laughs ] For sure.

I'm going to be singing
"Dance with My Father"

by Luther Vandross.

Yesterday was
the one year anniversary

of my father's death.
Wow.

And, uh...
Come on, man,
give me a hug, man.

It's gonna be a rough one,
but we gonna get through his.
I want you -- I want you --

I want you to sing this,
but not with sadness.

I want you to sing it for him.

For sure.
Don't cry.
Hold it there.

On God.
Sing it.

Appreciate that.
Yeah. Give me that.

**

I love you.

This song, I want to dedicate it
to my father.

* Back when I was... *
Growing up,

I messed up.
I wasn't always perfect.

And the man that I am today,
it is because of my dad.

He taught me how to wear a suit.

He taught me
how to command a room,

how to treat a woman.

* My father would lift me high *

I just wish
that I could let him know

that I'm gonna make you proud.

I'm gonna be the dad that
you were to me, to my daughters.

I'm gonna give them
all the opportunities.

And so, um,
it would be really cool

to have that one last moment
with my father.

I'm gonna sing my butt off
to make him proud.

* The only man she loved *

* I know you don't do it
usually *

Austyns, have you heard his runs
and his high notes?

You could feel that song.
It brought tears to my eyes.

And, whoo, maybe I am
a little intimidated now.

[ Laughs ]
* Every night I fall asleep *

* This is all I ever dream *

Mm! Mm, mm.
Yes!

Mm, mm.
You made me cry.

My God.
I felt that one.

Whoo.
Mm!

[ Sobs quietly ]
There you go.
It's alright.

He proud of you.
There you go. There you go.

Mm. Mm.

Snoop Dogg: Austyns,
he's such a talent.

He did an amazing job of
projecting his emotion onto me.

'Cause I started to think
about my mother

and the people
that I had lost in my life.

He's probably the greatest deal
in "Voice" history.

Look. He's gone.
[ Sniffles ] Ah.

So am I, inside.
But you know, I'm British.

We don't show our emotions.
[ Laughter ]

You sang that song
with such sweet regret.

My dad was my hero, man.
I felt it here.

What I want you to do when you
sing it, control your emotions.

'Cause that's the key
to your vocalization.

Especially when you get to
that high note at the end.

Okay.
Sometimes when you get
too emotionally involved

with what you're singing about,
technically, it seizes up.

Think about all the moments
you had with him.

That's going to give you
all that joy.

Bottled that in.

Man, you do shows.
all the time.

You just lost your mom.
Yes, sir.

How you get up there
and you do it?
The first time I did it,

I was on stage with Wiz,
and I catch myself crying,

and then he just come
give me a hug.

After that, I never cried
again on stage for my mom.

'Cause I know this is
what she want me to do.

When she was here,
I made her proud.

I'm gonna keep making her proud.
And that's what you gonna do.

I appreciate you, boss.
Thank you, my brother.

Appreciate y'all. Love.
Thanks, Austyns.

Thank you.
Beautiful. Hey.

I wasn't expecting
an emotion like this.
Me neither.

Austyns was inside that song.
It was his song.

The choice for Snoop
to pick among this group

is gonna be impossible.

Your emotion is making
people cry.

Your emotion is taking them
to church.

Your emotion is that girl
that you lost.

Find it to make us feel that
when we listening.

They're all so unique
and so wonderfully talented,

and it's so inspiring
to hear a Luther Vandross song

and a country song
and a church song.

That's what the country needs.
Yes.

Need to be together.
Yes.

That's right.
Group hug.

I don't want that gig.
I think it's just a flip
of the coin.

Peace and love.
[ Laughs ]

Christina: Thank you.
Thank you.

[ Cheers and applause ]

You three are amazing.

Austyns is so good.

When you get someone
off your team

and then you see them again,
you get so jealous.

With "Dance With My Father,"
here's Austyns Stancil.

**

* Back when I was a child *

* Before life removed
all the innocence *

* My father would lift me high *

* And dance with my mother
and me *

* And then spin me around
till I fell asleep *

* Then up the stairs
he would carry me *

* And I knew for sure
I was loved *

* If I could get another chance,
another walk *

* Another dance with him *

* I'll play a song
that will never, never end *

* How I'd love, love, love
to dance with my father again *

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* I know I'm praying
for much too much *

* But could you send
the only man she loved *

* I know you don't do it
usually *
Yes!

* But Lord, she's dying
to dance with my father again *

[ Cheers and applause ]

* Every night I fall asleep *

* This is all I ever dream *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Yes!

Whoo!

Beautiful.
Austyns: Thank you.

My team play together.
You bet.

Yes, sir.
I love that.

Yeah. Me too.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the knockouts premiere.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Now, with "My Church,"
here's Christina Eagle.

Taking them to church,
'Stina.

**

* I've cussed on a Sunday *

* I've cheated, and I've lied *

* I've fallen down from grace *

* A few too many times *

* But I find holy redemption *

* When I put this car in drive *

* Roll the windows down
and turn up the dial *

* Can I get a hallelujah? *

* Can I get an amen? *

* Feels like the Holy Ghost
running through ya *

* When I play the highway FM *

* I find my soul revival *

* Singin' every single verse *

* Yeah, I guess
that's my church *

* When Hank brings the sermon *
[ Laughs ]

* And Cash leads the choir *

* It gets my cold,
cold heart burning *

* Hotter than a ring of fire *

* When this wonderful world
gets heavy *

* And I need to find my escape *

* just keep the wheels rolling,
radio scrolling *

* 'Til my sins wash away *

* Hey, can I get a hallelujah? *
Come on.

* Come on,
can I get an amen? *

* Feels like the Holy Ghost
running through ya *

* When I play the highway FM *

* I find my soul revival *

* Singin' every single verse *

* Yeah, I guess
that’s my church *

* Hey! Yeah, I guess
that’s my church *

* Yeah, I guess
that’s my church *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Hallelujah!
Thank you, Lord.
Whoo!

She is so good.

I love her.
Let's go, Jake.

Now with "Going, Going, Gone,"
here's Jake Tankersley.

**

**

* Some things in life
are meant to fly *

**

* And others,
they were born to run *

**

* You can't tie them up
and leave 'em *

* Like the changing
of the seasons *

* Good things,
they come and then they go *

**

* Like a runaway
Southbound train *

* Like an Arizona desert rain *

* Like lightning in the sky *

* Like fireworks in July *

* Like a left field
home run ball *

* Like a whiskey shot
at last call *

* It's like she was made
for moving on *

* That girl is going, going,
gone *

**

* She ain't got one bit
of stick around *

**

* There's no sense
in tryin' to slow her down *

* Like a runaway
Southbound train *

* Like an Arizona desert rain *

* Like lightning in the sky *

* Like fireworks in July *

* Like a left field
home run ball *

* Like a whiskey shot
at last call *

* It's like she was made
for moving on *

* That girl is going, going,
gone *

* Going, going, gone *

* Going, going, gone *

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

So proud of you.

Great job! Whoo!

Austyns,
you were spirit-filled.

Somebody upstairs
you're missing?

My father. I lost him.

And I'm so happy
to be here to sing this song

in front of you guys.
Straight up.

It's so amazing
how healing music is.

Your dad's not with us.
My dad's not with us.

Mm.
So this is a song
that we go,

yeah, Goes to the heart.
Very powerful.

Christina, you had us all up.
We were going to church.

Thank you. Amen.
Amen.

Love the way
you bounced around on stage.

You were having fun with it.
Thank you.

And Jake, you've got
a great round, big voice.

It was very fun
to listen to you sing.

Thank you so much, ma'am.
[ Cheers and applause ]

Wow. Austyns was on my team.

When you came in
on that first verse,

that part of your voice
is probably my favorite part
of your voice.

but then when you go up
into your head voice,

it's so unexpected
and you do it so strong.

Really good job.

Thank you so much.
You can just feel it.

Appreciate that.
Security might have
to come get me

because I'm, like,
a super fan of Christina.

I love you.
That was a crazy
performance,

to be able to have
that kind of personality

and charisma on stage.

I can't believe
you're not signed.

Like, I just think
you're really special.

Thank you so much.
Jake.

Your low tone
is just so signature.

This is a popular song, but it
sounds like you wrote the song.

You're all so different.
I don't know how you choose,
Snoop.

[ Laughter ]
Gwen: Yeah.

Michael: You three
are a perfect example

of why Snoop
is great for "The Voice."

[ Cheers and applause ]
Awe.

Jake, I wanna be like you,
dude.

I might go home dressed
like you.
[ Laughter ]

There might be a "Bublé-aby"
number five coming if I do that.

[ Laughter ]

You killed it out here today,
bro.

That means so much.
Thank you.
Christina.

I love watching people become
superheroes on stage.

All of a sudden,
the mic goes in your hand,

[Snaps fingers] the light goes
on, and you become Wonder Woman.

Thank you so much.
And Austyns,

you just came out and sang
one of the great songs
from Luther Vandross.

And that is like, dude,

you need to be special
if you're gonna do that.

If I was Team Snoop, I would
probably have to pick you.

Daly: Thank you, coaches.
Thank you.

Snoop D-O-double G,

give us some thoughts
on this knockout.

Let me say this first.

The way you two hugged him,

that's what I love
about my team.

We know when to love
and care for each other.

Brother Austyns, we talked about
when you sing,

think about the great times
you had with your dad.

Yeah.
By bringing that spirit
to the stage, we felt you.

Reba was crying,
I was crying.

I'm trying to hold
and push it back up.

But that -- Can't nothing
I can do about 'em.

They just gonna keep
falling down.

Truly honored to have you
on my team.

Thank you so much.
[ Applause ]

Christina Eagle,
my spirit animal.

Yes.
Because when you sing,

you bring out the Gangster
Holy Ghost in me.

[ Laughter ]

I feel what you sing.
It's a gift.
Yeah.

And it's an honor
to have you on my team.

And you did an amazing job
tonight.

Thank you.
Thank you so much.

Jake.
Don't break my heart.

This is country music's
finest right here.

I love the way you took that
information that I gave you.

And you made it
your record.

I could just feel it all.
That's right.

And you made me proud
to be your coach.

Thank you, brother Jake.
Thank you so much, Coach.

Daly: Snoop, who is the winner
of this knockout?

Wow.
[ Dramatic music plays ]

[ Sighs ] I don't know.

**

[ Laughter ]

**

The winner

of this knockout...

is...

Austyns Stancil.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Daly: Austyns, congratulations.

You are moving on
to the playoffs

for Team Snoop.

Snoop Dogg: Austyns was the
winner based off of spirit,

personality
and how he composed himself

to hold in all of that pain
and all of that loss

to give us a great performance.

Can't stop emotion,
when emotion hits you.

Tears start falling.
Chills down your back.

That's real music.
That's real singing.

You got it out,
now go get it in.
Yes, sir.

So if he can do a song
that has nothing to do

with the loss of someone
or emotions,

imagine what he's gonna give me.

You did so good.
Thank you.

All I can think of
is thank you, Dad.

[ Voice breaking ]
Thank you for giving me
the strength to go out there.

You always did it
when he was here with me.

And he did it again
from upstairs.

Coach, let me remind you,
Christina is available
to steal or save

Christina, anything you want
to say to your coach?

Whoa!
That's the sound of a save.

Hold everything!

[ Cheers and applause ]

One, two, three steals
and a save.

Whoo!

Sorry. That's my fam
right there, man.

What the heck?

No, Snoop, she's mine!

[ Laughs ]

[ Laughing ]

Daly: Reba, why do you wanna use
your one and only steal?

In this world today,
we need heart and soul,

love, joy, peace,
and light.
Whoo!

I'd love to have you
on my team.

I love you. Thank you.
Alright, thank you,
Coach Reba.

Coach Gwen.
Gwen: I'm your biggest fan.

To be able to sing and perform
the way you do,

it's super, super rare.

I truly think
that you are a star.

And I want to star
on Team Gwen.

Oh, my God, I love you.

Michael.
I love superheroes.

There's Spider-Man and Batman
and Christina Eagle.

[ Laughter ]

I really think I can help you
to become the star

you were meant to be.

Y'all have some great things
to say to my player.

But how many people
turned for you

in the blind?
You.

Who just saved you?
Snoop D-O-double G.

[ Laughter ]

I left the porch light on
for you.

And I left you something
in the microwave.

Come on back home.

Alright, Christina,

one chair in the blinds and
four chairs in the knockouts.

Who do you pick as your coach?

Oh, my gosh.
[ Dramatic music plays ]

You know I love all of you.

And it means more to me
than you will ever know.

Oh, God.

[ Inhales, exhales deeply ]

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the knockouts.

Christina, who do you pick
as your coach?

Oh, my gosh.
[ Dramatic music plays ]

You know I love all of you.

And it means more to me
than you will ever know.

Oh, God.
[ Inhales, exhales deeply ]

I'm sorry. I have to stay
on Snoop's team.

There it is.

The save from Snoop Dogg
for Christina Eagle worked.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Snoop Dogg:
Christina Eagle is a superstar,

and I think America
would love to see her on my team

because it's unpredictable.

It went from one chair
to four chairs.

Shows you the improvements
you're doing.

She had my save from the moment
she stepped on stage.

And I know that I could pick one
and save one.

Planning, structure, procedure,

dropping games
as I need to

to feed you

and lead you to a victory.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Thank you!

Y'all are awesome.

[ Gasps, shrieks ]

I'm a magician, too.
Oh, my God.

You ain't the only one
that can fly in on people,

Christina Eagle.

This is my Eagle
right here.
I'm going to playoffs
with Team Snoop!

[ Squeals ] Oh, my God.

**

Daly: Coaches, let me remind you
that Jake is available to steal.

Jake, anything you want to say
to your coach?

I'm truly honored
to have gotten the chance

to work with you.

Give it up
for Jake Tankersley, everybody.

[ Cheers and applause ]

You're a bad boy, Jake.
Nice job, Jake.

Hold everything!
We got a steal, times two!
You ain't going nowhere.

Reba and Gwen!
Get your ass back up there!

[ Indistinct shouting ]
Get your ass back up here!

Oh, my God.

I had to stall some time
for you, Jake.

[ Laughs ]

Bam! Bam!

Crazy.
Reba, we'll start with you.

I loved your performance.

I loved you before.

[ Laughter ]
Oh.

Blocked me last time.

So I'm going in there again.

I'd love to have you
on Team Reba.

Daly: Wow, that'd be something
after being blocked.

Gwen,
why do you wanna steal Jake?

I don't have
a country singer on my team,

and I feel like I deserve that.

[ Laughter ]

Well, I didn't expect that.

[ Laughter ]

Okay.

In all seriousness,
I love coaching all genres,

because to be able to be here
on "The Voice"

and to nurture somebody else
that has the dream

that I already got to live,
I'm so blessed.

So I would love
to coach you.

Well, there you go, Jake.

Who do you pick
as your new coach?

[ Dramatic music plays ]

Um, Reba, I love you so much.

You're an Okie.
I'm an Okie.

But Gwen used her only block
on me,

and I'm gonna go with Gwen.

Daly: Gwen Stefani steals Jake
away from Team Snoop and Reba.

Congratulations.

What I like about Jake
is he feels genuine

and all the things that you want
from a country singer.

Oh, my God. Thank you.

I totally agree 100%.
She's a great coach.

But also somebody
that would take such a risk

and pick me over Reba,
maybe it's meant to be,

and I'm going to be able to do
some great work with him.

Gwen, everything
that she said to me

in that -- in that moment
and -- Oh, my gosh.

Both: [ Laugh ]
Look at her.

Oh, my gosh.

Awe, Reba!
I might cry.

[ Laughter ]

[ Indistinct chatter ]

I told you this
was gonna be a good show.

Did y'all notice that all three
of my peoples are still here?

Michael: I told you.
Gwen: Yes, we did notice.

You know what I'm saying?
When you really put
it down like that,

then they don't never leave.

They just stay, just --
just switch locations.

Good job, Snoop.
Lovely.

[ Cheers and applause ]

I am having a blast.
This is amazing.

Then I get to hang out
with you.

Oh, thanks.
So thank you for having me.

Well, when I found out
you were gonna be

the mega mentor,
I was screaming.

Did you scream?
Yeah, I did.

Oh, my God.

I'm back!

Last time I was here
was Season 15.

And fast forward to season 26,

I feel like I'm dreaming.

You've been busy?
I have been.

The show, obviously.
Yeah. Yeah.

And then I've been doing
new music.

You're my hero.
Listen. No. You my hero.

[ Laughs ]
Whew. I'm trying
to be like you, Reba.

Throughout my career,
I've been blessed

to be in every part
of the industry

and to start out
in a similar place as this,

it makes it extra special
to be able to come back

and share that
with other talent.

I'm a little nervous.
I'm a little nervous,
to be honest.
Would y'all be weirded out

if we held hands
and took a deep breath?
Yeah.

Okay, sure.
Okay.

Reba: Three contestants
coming up.
Okay. Three.

Jaukeem, 13 years old.
13?

Yeah.
[ Gasps ]

You won't know it, though,
when he sings.

Cassidy I stole from Michael.
Oh.

She's really, really good.

Then Adam
was a one chair turn.

And during the battle rounds,
he was so good.

So, you ready to see 'em?
I'm ready, ready.

Who we got? Who we got?
Who we got?

Come in, come in, come in.
[ Laughs excitedly ]

Walking into rehearsal
and seeing Jennifer Hudson,

I freaked out.

Hi, beautiful.
Cassidy: How are you?

Jennifer Hudson is one of the,
like, best singers ever.

[ Laughs ]
I'm sorry.
I'm starstruck over here.

I don't blame you.
I am, too.

[ Laughs ]
I'm kind of in love with her.

I don't know.

So I'm gonna be singing
"Colors" by the Black Pumas.

[ Gasps ] I love Black Pumas.
And this song
is in celebration

of all the diversity
in black culture.

I love this song.
You love this song?

I love this song.
I did it for you.
I did it just for you.

[ Laughs ]
Let's get into it.

* With all my favorite colors *

* Yes, sir *
Hey.

I definitely connect
with the song

because I grew up a half black,
half white and Jewish kid.

As a lighter skinned black man,

I've definitely
experienced prejudice.

I am not always recognized
as a black man.

* My sisters and my brothers *

This song
is a very important song

because within the black
community there's colorism.

Within other communities
there's racism,

and singing this song
on such a big platform,

I get to share the love
of being accepted

for the wide variety
of different colors

that you can find
within the community.

* ...favorite colors *

Adam's tone is amazing.

The energy he's giving
is just what's needed.

But give us some levels.

Take us through that journey,

and that would draw us in
that much more.

Very, very good.

Let it have an edge
and that grit.

Mm.
And own it.

Because the texture
of the song requires that.

Yeah.
Dirty tone is what
I like to call it.

Allow that dirty tone
to come through.

* All my favorite colors *

Yes!
Jennifer: Yes, sir!

Girl. Telling you.

Jennifer is just a great
mega mentor.

I still would like
to see more of your eyes.

I know. I'm really shy,
so, like --

Oh, bull.
I don't believe that.
Just, like...

Why you laughing?
I'm shy.
You got pretty eyes.

Awe. Thank you.
Awe. Thanks.

Adam, powerhouse. Wow.

I was the only one
to turn for Adam.

I heard something different
in his voice.

Got a little grit.

It was just everything
I wanted on my team.

I'm going to sing
"Love Me Like A Man"

by Bonnie Raitt.
Love Bonnie Raitt.

Even though I sing
rock and roll,

I do think that blues and rock
are so intertwined.

* Got their soul up on a shelf *

I've never really sang
such a bluesy song like this,

but I am excited to show myself

and show the coaches
a new side of me.

* ...really understand *

Oh, pretty, pretty voice.
Yes.

After I didn't get a chair turn
on "The Voice" in Season 18,

I was devastated.

Took a break from music.

I made a lot of changes,
prioritizing myself.

I was really able to just sit
with my grief and feel and heal,

and that just gave me the time
to discover who I am now.

* You can love me
like a man *

Cassidy's a soulful singer.

She got in there a little
bluesy, and I loved her tone.

I love her style.
She's got a great, pure voice.

Cassidy, you've got
the cutest dimples.

Oh. Thank you.

While you're singing that,
get those smiles.

Let me see those dimples.
Get the dimples going.

Yeah.
Okay.

Tell that story.
Them dimples will come.

The attitude. Whatever you need.

Just be present in the song
that much more.
Okay.

What makes me nervous
about Cassidy

is she has so much control
with her voice.

Fabulous, honey.
Fabuloso.

I know that I'm
going to have to up my game

because to win this knockout,

it would mean the world to me.

This baby 13.
My God.

What you got planned
for us?

Today, I'll be singing
"God Only Knows"

by KING & COUNTRY.

God really knows.

And I know if you just let
him step into your life,

he can do the miraculous.
Love it.

* God only knows
what you've been through *

* God only knows
what they say about you *

This song talks about
how if you're in a hard time,

or if you're struggling
with something

that God can meet you
where you're at.

This year, I went into
ninth grade.

In some classes, work can get
a little bit overwhelming,

and I felt like
after I heard the song,

I could just do my work more
and just feel more calm.

* God only knows *

* God only knows
what you've been through *
[ Laughs excitedly ]

Jaukeem, when you see him
and that beautiful smile of his,

and then he steps up
to the microphone

and blows your socks off...

* God only knows *

...my gosh,
who doesn't love this kid?

* God only knows *

Wow.
Listen, listen.

[ Laughter ]

I got a shoe thrown at me.
I'd throw mine, too,
but I can't get it off.

[ Laughter ]

Perfect.
Love, love, love.

Somehow, at the age of 13,

Jaukeem is singing
from experience.

If he makes the audience feel
what he's feeling

the way he made us feel it,

he is well on his way.

I'm crying over here.
You got me. You got me.
No. She is. She is.

You got an instrument on you,
young man.

Thank you.
I would say give the same energy
in the beginning.

Not do bells and whistles,
but owning what you're saying.

Don't rush through it, 'cause
it's like a testimony, right?

What you're singing and
the place you're singing from.

Yes, ma'am.
Tell that story, instead
of letting it all explode.

Mm-hmm.
And at the very end,
it might just be,

* God only knows *
Makes it sweet.

Yes, ma'am.
Adam, Cassidy, and Jaukeem,

each one is their own artist.

I'm so proud of you.

Thank you.
Thank you.

Three-way knockout.
One winner.

Mm-hmm. Mm. That's stressful.

This is not gonna be easy
for Reba.

They keep singing like that,

listen, y'all gonna
have to take me shopping.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to "The Voice."

Gwen: I'm knocked out
by these knockouts.

I just beat Reba.

Like, I actually feel
guilty about it, okay?

Like, I think she's mad at me.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Whoo-whoo!

With "Colors,"
here's Adam Bohanan.

**

* I woke up to the morning sky
first *

* Baby blue,
just like we rehearsed *

* Mm, mm *

* When I get up
off this ground *

* I shake the leaves back down *

* To the brown,
brown, brown, brown *

* 'Til I'm clean *

**

* Then I walked where I'd be
shaded by the trees *

* By a meadow of green *

* For about a mile *

* I'm headed to town,
town, town in style *

**

* With all my favorite colors *

* Yes, sir *

* All my favorite colors,
right on *

* My sisters and my brothers
see 'em like no other *

* All my favorite colors *

**

* It's a good day to be,
a good day for me *

* Good day to see
my favorite colors *

**

* My sisters and my brothers *

* I see 'em like no other *

* Oh, my favorite colors *

* It's a good day to be,
a good day for me *

* Good day to see
my favorite colors *

**

* My sisters and my brothers *

* I see 'em like no other *

* Oh, my favorite colors *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Way to go, Adam. Way to go.

Whoo-hoo!
Yeah. Work.

Work, nephew. Work.
That's crazy.

Now singing
"Love Me Like A Man,"

here is Cassidy Lee.

Come on, Cassidy.

**

* These men that I've been
seein', baby *

* Got their soul
up on a shelf *

* You know they could never
love me *

* They can't even love
themselves *

* But I need someone
to love me *

* Someone to really understand *

* Oh, yeah *

* Who won't put himself
above me *

* Just loves me like a man *

**

* Never seen such losers,
darlin' *

* Even though I tried
to find a man *

* Who could take me home *

* Instead of taking me
for a ride *

* I need someone to love me *

* Darlin', I know you can *

* Oh, you can *

* Oh, believe me
when I tell you *

* You can love me like a man *

Now y'all listen up.
[ Chuckles ]

* They all want me
to rock them *

* Like my back
ain't got no bone *

* I want a man to rock me *

* Like my, my backbone
was his own *

Yeah!

* And darlin', I know you can *

* Oh, you can *

* Oh, believe me
when I tell you *

* You could love me *

* Don't put yourself above me *

* Just love me like a man *

* Like a man *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Ow!

Way to go, Cassidy!
Work! Work!

Work, Cassidy! Work!
Damn, Reba.

Man. I know.

I know.

Come on, Jaukeem.
Come on!

[ Cheers and applause continue ]

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

[ Cheers and applause ]

And now with "God Only Knows,"

here is Jaukeem Fortson.

Let's go, Jaukeem!

**

* Wide awake while the world
is sound asleep, and *

* Too afraid of what might
show up while you're dreamin' *

* Nobody, nobody,
nobody sees you *

* Nobody, nobody
would believe you *

* Everyday you try to pick up
all the pieces *

* All the memories,
they somehow never leave you *

* Nobody, nobody,
nobody sees you *

* Nobody, nobody
would believe you *

* But God only knows
what you've been through *

* God only knows
what they say about you *

* God only knows
how it's killing you *

* But there's a kind of love
that God only knows *

* God only knows
what you've been through *

* God only knows
what they say about you *

* God only knows the real you *

* But there's a kind of love
that God only knows *

* For the lonely,
for the ashamed *

* The misunderstood
and the ones to blame *

* What if we can start over? *

* We can start over,
we can start over *

* 'Cause God only knows *

* God only knows
what you've been through *

* God only knows
what they say about you *

* He only knows *

* But there's a kind of love
that God only knows *

* God only knows *

* God only knows
where to find you *

* God only knows
how to break through *

* 'Cause God only knows
the real you *

* But there's a kind of love
that God only knows *

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

Oh, my gosh.
Three great --

What just happened?
I know.

This the first time
I ever went to a bar,

a club, and then went to church
right after.

[ Laughter ]

And I mean, it was
a hell of an experience.
[ Laughs ]

Starting off with you,
Adam.

You had the right energy,
the right feeling.

It's not always about the way
it sound, it's the way it feels.

Great performance.
Thank you so much.

Then I went down the street
to another club.

And Cassidy was on stage.

You did a great job of showing
that the bounce back

was more important
than the setback.

Thank you so much.
Brother Jaukeem,

You know,
this is my big home girl.

And when you started singing,

I looked her dead
in the barrel of her eyes,

and I said, Father God,

help Reba see what I see.
[ Laughter ]

So with that being said,
Sister Reba,

I would go
with the youngster.
[ Cheers and applause ]

Thank you.
You're 13.

I just turned 14.

Oh, well...
[ Laughter ]

You are just getting started.

It's amazing, your talent.
Yeah.

Thank you.
[ Cheers and applause ]

Cassidy, I just love
the tone of your voice

and how warm
your voice can be.

Thank you.
Thank you so much.
I thought you did
a really good job.

Adam,
you are just mind blowing.

Oh, my God, thank you.
Yeah. [ Laughs ]

That's so nice.
He's so cute.

I don't know
if I could choose, but...

Wow. Thank you guys.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Jaukeem, it was really touching,
and you shocked me.

You have such a beautiful,
wonderful career ahead of you.

You're going to bless
so many people with that talent.

Thank you so much.

Cassidy,
you were stolen from me.

And you're so fantastic.

When you were singing
that song,

I was, like, fantasizing
about being in some roadhouse

with Patrick Swayze
or Jake Gyllenhaal.
[ Laughter ]

Adam, you are truly an artist.
That was flawless.

That might have been the best
performance I've seen today.

Yeah!
If I had to make a choice,
I might take Adam.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Thank you.

Daly: Thank you, Coaches. Reba,
you got a tough decision here.

Give us some thoughts
before you tell us who won.

Well, my first thought is,

what in the world was I thinking
when I put you three together?

Jaukeem, what you do on stage
is miraculous.

That's heart stuff.
Thank you.

And Cassidy, I heard something
in you that I absolutely loved.

The blues.
You've got it in your soul

and it just floats
when you sing.
Thank you.

And Adam, first time I heard you
it was like, don't know what,

but there's something there
that I absolutely love.

And you have proven
so many times

that you know
what you're doing.

Thank you so much, Reba.
[ Applause ]

[ Sighs ]
Well, Reba, a lot at stake.

Three great,
great singers from your team.

Who is the winner
of this knockout?

Wow. I haven't --
I haven't had this hard a time

since I've been on the show.

They're all three winners.

They're so good.
Mm-hmm.

Gwen: Snoop's praying for you.

Snoop's trying to get the
Holy Gangster Ghost to see you.

**

Golly, guys.
I love you all three.

Please don't be mad at me.

So the winner
of this knockout round...

**

...is Adam.
Adam, congratulations.

You are moving on
to the playoffs.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Oh, my God. Thank you!

Adam is a force of nature.

He's a great guitar player,
has a great attitude.

And then he opens his mouth and
it's just this amazing voice.

You're so amazing.
You deserve this.

I appreciate it.
Thank you so much.

I'm going to the playoffs.
Can you believe it?

I'm excited and terrified.

And I'm ready. I'm 100% ready.

Daly: Alright, let me remind you
Cassidy is available to steal.

Cassidy, anything that
you want to say to your coach?

Thank you so much
for everything.

I'm so, so grateful
for this experience.

Daly: Give it up
for Cassidy Lee, everybody!

That was the hardest thing
I've had to do.

You did so good.

Cassidy, she is such a hugely
talented woman.

It was sad to see her go,
but she's got a great future.

Jaukeem is also available
to steal.

Jaukeem, anything that
you want to say to your coach?

I would just like
to say thank you so much.

It just wasn't my time today.

And I know that God has
many things in store for me.

[ Whoosh ]

Whoa!
That's the sound of a steal!

Michael Bublé.
Amen.

I stole Jaukeem
because when I was a kid,

people saw the potential in me

and loved me enough
to give me that shot.

And I love that
I could do that with Jaukeem.

I think he earned it today.

We need to see
more black kids like this.

In the beginning,
when I first came out,

I was a representation of the
wrong side of what we look like.

I want to commend
your parents,

your grandparents, and everybody
for raising you the right way.

This is what a young
black kid looks like.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Team Bublé going to playoffs!
Whoo! [ Chuckles ]

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly:
Welcome back to "The Voice"

at Universal Studios Hollywood.

[ Shouts ]
Hi, my darling.

Thanks for coming.

You look fabulous, as usual.
Thank you. You, too.

I literally am shaking
with excitement to see you.

You know I'm a massive,
obsessed fan.

No, it works both ways,
believe me.
[ Laughs ]

I was in eighth grade when
I saw the Synchronicity Tour.

Yeah.
That amazing
famous shot.

Where's the picture?
They'll probably
put it on the screen.

Yes, I had a mullet.
You're welcome.

I think I did, too.
[ Laughs ]

I can't wait to brag on you
all day.

You're so sweet.
I'm just dreaming about Sting.

Sorry. His voice is iconic.
Nobody sounds like him.

And I got to induct him into
the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

He's a rarity.

So first, we have Camryn.

She sings with dynamics
and ease.

And then Deon, this is a guy
that I actually stole from Reba.

He has a lot of charisma.

And then Jose Luis,
his tone is beautiful.

He has crazy dynamics.

Da, da, da, da.
All: [ Exclaiming excitedly ]

Look at who's here,
you guys!

Oh, my God.

Seeing Sting,
I was, like, freaking out.

Sting has won, like, 17 Grammys.

It doesn't go bigger
than that.

Nice to meet you.
Oh, my.

To be standing
in front of two legends,

It's just like, oh, my God.

Why did you choose
this song?

So "Glitter in the Air" is one
of my mom's favorite songs.

It's just very emotional
and sentimental for me.

Camryn: She talks in the chorus
about the walk before the run

and the fear
before the flames.

But when you finally have
the glitter and the glam,

it means that much more
because of all of the obstacles

that you've been through.

* It's only half past... *

Every single time
my mom had the chance,

she would beg me
to sing this song.

So my whole life,
I knew this was our song.

* The breath
before the kiss... *

My mom is the most amazing
woman in the world.

She has seen me
all the way through the trials

and tribulations of my life.

From Season 21
and not getting any chair turns,

through the hospitalization,

she watched me fight
for my life.

Without her, I wouldn't be here.

Camryn's voice,
she has pure tone

and also an ability
to express dynamics.

There's a difference
between very quiet and loud,

like a professional singer.

Yay!
Bravo.

That was so pretty.
Thank you.

I love the intimacy
of the lyric,

and I love
that you're inside that.

And then when the higher note
comes out, it's such a release.

Mm-hmm.
This is my favorite song
I've heard you sing.

Yeah.
But I want to see you get
a little bit more physical

and emotional
with your facial expressions,

and think about your mom
maybe, too,

and think
about your journey.

You know, when you do,
like, the,

* Call me sugar *,

you could just, like,
you're desperate.

I just want you to feel
super comfortable on stage,

and I want you
to control the room.
Absolutely.

It's a tall order, but it's not
'cause you're already so gifted.

This is your heart singing.

So I think there's
a tension in the song.

You need to explore
those extremes.

Mm-hmm.
The song does it,
but you need to be inside it.

Thank you,
I appreciate it.

Camryn tells a story
as she sings.

I just hope I can bring
that same energy to this round.

You deserve to be stolen.
You're so gifted.

[ Laughter ]

You have such
a beautiful heart energy,

and I wanna find out,
like, if you made a record,

what would your record be?
So when I was a kid,

Tina Turner became such
an inspiration to me.

I knew Tina very well,
and I was privileged enough,

the month before she died, to
be invited to tea at her house.

And she was still the same Tina.

But we've lost a major icon.

* A church house, gin house *

Deon chose "Nutbush City Limits"
by Tina Turner.

He has a lot
of great stage presence.

He's passionate,
and he has a vision.

I think I did a good job
stealing him.

* I said they call it
Nutbush city limits *

What a brave choice
to choose a Tina Turner song.

You know, this icon of our time,
he did it extremely well.

[ Vocalizing ]

[ Applause ]

Yeah.
Wow.

You have a very good frame.

And I think this jacket
is actually constricting you.

I want to see --
There you go, I knew it.
[ Laughs ]

Camryn: Yeah, baby.
I'm a bit jealous
of those arms, actually.

[ Laughs ]
[ Laughs ]

I mean, the whole thing
about Tina

was the incredible joy
she could express.
Yeah.

But you knew her story
was not joyful at all.

That tension
between those two things

is something
you have to embody.
Yes, sir.

What I love about Tina
as well

is she never made herself
a victim of her story.

And in 2020,

when I was protesting
the murder of George Floyd,

I got shot by the police with
a rubber bullet in the face.

That bullet broke
my entire face,

it broke my cheekbone,
caused an incredible laceration.

I could have stayed in
that story, stayed in that pain.

But I made a decision
not to be a victim of that,

but take charge of my life.

And I think that's how
you make your dreams come true.

What an emotional journey.
You know, and you feel that.

One of the big things
that you learn as a musician,

it's like,
don't waste the pain.
Exactly.

There were moments
where I was struggling
a little bit vocally.

I think it's a matter
of releasing your neck.

Before I go on stage to sing,

I spend five minutes
just tapping...

Learn from the legend,
from the legend.
...top of my head
and just say to myself,

you're gonna be good.
[ Laughs ]

It wakes up the nervous system,

and it just reinforces
your belief in yourself.

Thank you, Coach.
Thank you, Coach.
Yes!

Camryn and Deon,
such amazing singers.

Both performances
are so different,

but they are really good,
so I'm nervous.

Why did you choose
this song?

When this song came out,

I was going through,
like, a heartbreak.

And I remember that this song
literally explains my situation.

* I didn't think
you'd understand... *

I'm going to be singing

"We Can't be Friends
(Wait For Your Love)"

by Ariana Grande.

* I don't wanna tiptoe,
but I don't wanna... *

When you love someone

and that love
is not reciprocated,

it unlocks
a lot of insecurities.

Like, why?
Am I not pretty enough?

Am I'm not funny enough?

I literally deconstructed myself

because I really wanted to make
the person like me,

and I ended up losing myself.

I tend to be a little shy
when I'm offstage,

but being here on "The Voice,"
Gwen has helped me a lot

with my confidence
to become the artist

that I really want to be.

Gwen: Jose is
an incredible singer.

He can do anything
with his voice.

But the one thing
that was missing is personality.

Let us into his soul
a little bit more.

[ Chuckles ]
Period.

Isn't that beautiful?
Fantastic tone.

Really.
Because you're vocally
so unbelievably incredible,

I wanna get to know you more.

There's something
you're holding back.

If I think about, like,
all the artists I've ever loved,

it feels like I know them

because they let
their heart just open.

That's how we kind of connect
as humans.

Absolutely.
I want you to actually
engage me with your eyes.

Okay.
This is the audience
you have right now,

and i want to be put on the spot
by you.
I love that.

Okay.
Thank you.

Jose Luis, there's something
in his voice that is angelic.

You guys wanna come
back up?

Yeah.
This guy could be a big star.

Camryn: This is amazing.

Gwen: This is gonna be
a tough decision.

Everybody's so different.

I have no idea
what I'm gonna do.

Camryn: That was insane,
you guys. [ Laughs ]
Deon: That was so much fun.

Sting: Now you have to select
who goes home.

It's kind of horrifying
to be the one to be, like --

So, I don't have
to do that right now?
You don't have to do that.

Whew!
You just have
to be nice guy.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

The knockouts are going great.

Man, we're having so much
fun stealing

and saving
and good competition.

I am totally having
a great time being entertained,

which I love to be --
entertained.

Gwen: Yes!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Oh, my gosh,
she's so good on this song.

Yeah. Great.

With "Glitter in the Air,"
here's Camryn Brooks.

**

* Have you ever fed a lover
with just your hands? *

* Closed your eyes and trusted,
just trusted? *

* Have you ever thrown *

* A fistful of glitter
in the air? *

* It's only half past
the point of oblivion *

* The hourglass on the table,
the walk before the run *

* The breath before the kiss
and the fear before the flames *

* Have you ever felt this way? *

* Oh, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la *

* Oh, there you are *

* Sitting in the garden
clutching my coffee *

* Calling me sugar *

* You called me sugar *

* Ohhhh *

* Have you ever held your breath
and asked yourself *

* Will it ever get better
than tonight? *

* Tonight *

Wow.

[ Cheers and applause ]

So pretty!

Now, with "Nutbush City Limits,"
here's Deon Jones.

Hey, everybody!
They call it Nutbush!

Yeah!

* A church house gin house *

* I said a school house
outhouse *

* Highway number 19 *

* I said the people keep
the city clean *

* They call it Nutbush *

* Oh, Nutbush *

* I said they call it
Nutbush city limits *

* Nutbush city *

* 25 was the speed limit *

* Motorcycle not allowed in it *

* You go to the store
on Fridays *

* You go to church
on Sundays *

* They call it Nutbush *

* Oh, Nutbush *

* I said they call it
Nutbush city limit *

* Nutbush city limit *

* You go to the fields
on weekdays *

* And have a picnic
on Labor Day *

* You go to town on Saturdays *

* You go to church
every Sunday *

* Down in Nutbush *

* Oh, Nutbush *

* I said they call it
Nutbush city *

* Oh, Nutbush city limits *

* No whiskey for sale *

* You get caught, no bail *

* Salt pork and molasses *

* That's all
you're gonna get in jail *

* Down in Nutbush *

* Oh, in Nutbush *

* I said they call it
Nutbush city limits *

* Nutbush city *

Everybody!

* Nutbush *

* I said Nutbush *

* I said they call it
Nutbush city limits *

* Nutbush city *

One more time!

* Nutbush*

* Nutbush *

* Yeah, yeah, yeah *

[ Cheers and applause ]

* Nutbush city limit *

That was awesome.

[ Laughs ]

* Nutbush city limits *

Jose Luis!

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the knockouts premiere.

Snoop, you need
some Skittles?

Um...
You want to get a handful
before we go?

I think someone stole some.

Had a whole half.

Oh.
Was that you?

Do we have a thief?
We got a thief.

I did not steal a Skittle.
I'm-a check y'all's
fingerprints later.

Security,
check everybody's bags.

Reba's first.
What?!

[ Laughs ]
I said it's her.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Now with "We Can't Be Friends
(Wait for Your Love),"

here's Jose Luis.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* I didn't think
you'd understand me *

* How could you ever even try? *

* I don't wanna tiptoe,
but I don't wanna hide *

* But I don't wanna feed
this monstrous fire *

* Just wanna let
this story die *

* And I'll be alright *

* We can't be friends *

* But I'd like to just pretend *

* You cling to your papers
and pens *

Words and bells.

* Wait until you like me again *

* Wait for your love *

* My love *

* I'll wait for your love *

* Know that you made me *

* I don't like
how you paint me *

* But I'm still here hanging *

* In the night *

* For now, it's only me *

* And maybe
that's all I need *

* Ohhh *

* But I'd like to just pretend *

* You cling to your papers
and pens *

* Wait until you like me again *

* I'll wait for your love *

* My love *

* I'll wait for your love *

* I'll wait for your love *

* My love *

* I'll wait for your love *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Yes!

Jose Luis ain't playing
no games.

That's incredible!

Whoo-whee!

So good!

So proud of you guys.

Camryn, you picked
a tough song for yourself.

But I thought,
as you got higher and higher,

you have such a great voice.

And I want to say
congratulations

on a great performance here.
Thank you so much.

Deon, dude, if this thing
was called "The Entertainer,"

you'd win the damn thing
in one second.

There's a part of your voice,
the sweetness that you have,

that I missed a little bit,

but I could not stop
watching you.
Oh, thank you.

Jose, I would
have to choose you,

because that performance
just cements you

as one of the great voices that
I've ever heard on this show.

Thank you so much.
Thank you.

Camryn, I felt
like you did an amazing job.

"Glitter in the Air."
Glitter on your pants.

You understand me?
So, you're coordinating.

That's half the battle.
You have to coordinate.

[ Laughter ]

Deon, Gangster Holy Ghost,
you gave it to me.

I had to come grab
your jacket

and James Brown you,
put it back on.
[ Laughter ]

It felt good. Looked good.
Great work.

Thank you, sir.

Jose Luis.

When that mic is
in your hands,

you turn into somebody
different.

I love that you recognize
the moment

and you step right into it.

That's what stars
are made of.

Thank you.

Camryn,
your vocal is beautiful.

You're pure.

Deon, you are
the ultimate show dog.

Thank you so much.

And, Jose,
when that spotlight goes on,

you turn into this performer
that is so confident.

It was a great performance.
Thank you so much.

Daly: Thank you, Coaches.

Thank you.

Gwen, before you tell us
the winner

give us your thoughts.

Camryn,
I feel like you picked

the perfect song for you.

I can understand who you
would be out there in the world

if you made a record.

And you've come far,

being even more comfortable
on stage.

And I thought you did
a great job tonight.

And Deon,

to be able to sing, dance,
and control the room,

it's rare.

You did an amazing job tonight.

Thank you, thank you.

[ Applause ]

Jose Luis,
you are unbelievable.

I'm blown away by you.
You are an absolute star.

You're so effortless
with your gift.

Wow, wow, wow.
Thank you so much.

Alright, Gwen, who is
the winner of this knockout?

Aaah! My heart is, like,
literally so nervous right now.

But I have to pick the person
that I feel is blowing me away.

The winner of this knockout
is Jose Luis.

Jose Luis,
congratulations!

I just had to go with
Jose Luis

because he is just undeniable.

Wow.

It's like one of those singers

where you're like,
how are you real?

You're so composed,
you're so emotional.

I just want to see
what he does next.

Thank you.

I'm just so excited,
so grateful.

I'm going to the playoffs.
Let's go.

Coaches, let me remind you
that Camryn's available

to steal or save.

Camryn, anything
you want to say to Gwen?

Yes, I just want to say
this really is

like a second chance at life
for me.

And I'm just so, so, so
thankful for this experience.

Give it up one more time
for Camryn Brooks, everybody.
[ Cheers and applause ]

Gwen: It's so hard to watch
talented people go home.

You're beautiful.

But at this point in the
competition, everyone's good.

I'm so lucky.

I only have one save,

so I'm just really
looking for that perfect moment.

Deon, anything
you want to say to Gwen?

Gwen Stefani!

I'm just grateful
for you saying

that the story is
not over for me yet.

Deon Jones, everybody!

[ Cheers and applause ]

He's so sweet.
Oh, I know it.

Deon really put on
a great show today.

Great job.
Thank you so much.

But I didn't use my steal yet

because I'm waiting on
that one person

that really touches my heart
and moves me.

Gwen: I mean,
what about Jose?
Reba: So good.

So --
I mean, kind of airy,

breathy, raspy.

That is a really unique,
incredible instrument.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to "The Voice."

Daly: Michael, Tanner
left the competition

after rehearsals.

You still have Sloane
and Cameron.

Tell me about those two artists

and what you're excited about.

Yeah, I have two great artists
in Sloane and Cameron.

They're dynamic,

and I can't wait to see
what they have in store for us.

Looking forward to that.

Thank you,
by the way, again.

This is too much fun.

No, this is
what I love to do, baby.

Our Mega Mentor
is not only kind,

beautiful, talented, empathetic,

she also just happens to be
an EGOT winner.

And I'm really excited
for my team.

And we've worked together.
Yes.

I was on your special.

We have to do something.
We need to do this together.

Yes.
For sure.

Um, so this one's
kind of cool for me.

Sloane.

I stole her from Gwen.

So, this is fresh.
This is fresh.

And Cameron --

They are one of the best singers
in this competition.

They sound like a star.
One of my faves.

Okay.

Michael: I have a really good
chance of winning "The Voice"

my first season,
and if that happens,

man, I'm going to be
insufferable.

[ Laughs ]

I have a really, really deep
connection to this song.

This is, like, one of the songs
that me and my partner

jam to together.

So, we're going to feel it.

* I will go where you lead *

Cameron: The song I'm singing
in the knockouts is

"You're All I Need to Get By"

by Marvin Gaye
and Tammi Terrell.

* ...right there to push me
up the hill *

* There's no... *

It reminds me
of my partner Kashif.

We have been together
for eight years.

Kashif is a person who has
opened me up to so many

new, wonderful experiences

that I probably wouldn't have
been as open to in the past,

and this is one of them.

I'm so excited about
every phase of this competition,

and I'm so thankful
that I have a partner

who saw the possibility within
me when I didn't even see it.

It is very rare that we
get to see queer love expressed.

So, I want to show people,
I guess the word is possibility.

* Oh, we've got the... *

Cameron, oh, my God.
The range does not end.

To take a classic like that,

to make it their own
and make us feel it?

Like, I want to dance
around the room.

That's star power.

Mm! That was a groove.
That's just great.

Those runs at the end
in the falsetto

remind me so much of me.

[ Laughs ]

You know, Michael
got his own swag,

but I was like, nah, baby.

[ Laughter ]

I love the joy
that you're giving in the song.

Put that spirit
in the physicality of it.
Okay.

Let it be a celebration
because it makes us all

just want to hop up and, ah,
feel it with you.

Cameron: To see Jennifer
really be impressed,

it just felt good.

She has conquered screen
and television

while still leading
with her voice.

When I tell you
the girl has range,

I'm talking about [Sings low
pitch, then high pitch]

Okay? Range.
[ Laughs ]

This song is
a celebration of love.

Show us in your face,
in your happiness.

Then we should be falling
in love with you.

Michael: Cameron
made it impossible

for me not to consider them
going through to the playoffs.

Okay, so I don't know
how I'm going to follow that.

But I think Sloane adds
a real dominant presence

when it comes to pop music.

She could be the future winner
of "The Voice."

Today I will be singing
"Can't Catch Me Now"

by Olivia Rodrigo,

and I think it has
a really strong message

of keeping your faith
and just being resilient.

My family is going through
a really hard time right now.

My dad was diagnosed
with stage IV cancer.

Oh, so sorry.

I even debated if being here
was a good thing for me to do

because I really
want to be there for my family.

But my dad said there's
nowhere else he'd rather me be.

And when I told him that
you stole me, he started crying.

Oh!
He was so excited.

* There's blood on the side
of the mountain *

I think that this song has
such a strong message

of not wanting to lose hope.

On the day of my battle,
as I was performing,

my dad underwent surgery for
something called T-cell therapy.

He has very minimal strength
right now,

but when I get to call him,

my mom says she instantly sees
a smile on his face.

And those are rare these days.

I'm so excited to be
sharing this experience with him

and my family
when we need it the most.

* I'm in the trees,
I'm in the breeze *

His fight is encouraging me
to stay here

and give this my all.

I'm going to sing my heart out.

Jennifer: To see Sloane
be brave enough,

considering what
her family is going through,

I think that's what's
going to help drive her through

and even give her another place
to sing from.

* Oh, you thought
that this was the end *

Mm. Mm.

Michael: Beautiful.

First of all,
your voice is so angelic.

Yeah, it's very pretty.
Thank you.

I like that song a lot.

It tells such
a beautiful story,

and it starts
from beginning to end.

And I like, don't really know
how to stage that quite yet.

Forget about me.

You're playing
for five million people

who are streaming on Peacock
or watching on NBC.

That's your audience.

It depends on what form
of stage you're on,

because if it's theater,

you want to perform
to the back of the house.

When there's cameras there,
If it was a movie set,

it's more intimate,
you know what I mean?

This is more so that
you're drawing the people in,

so being planted
and using the face

and communicating with the eyes.

To make a long story short,
read the room.

Thank you so much.
Thank you.

This is not even
going to be a hard decision.

This is going to be impossible.

God, how am I going to make
these decisions?

I don't know.

I guess it's just going
to come down to the moment.

You got a great group.
I know.

That's tough.

[ Sighs ]

I don't know what
you're going to do, child.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

Michael: Check out that ring.
How gorgeous.

Look at that.
Gwen: Whoa!

What is it?
Death Row Records.

Love it.

I actually made something
for you guys.

You made something?
Yeah, I made something.

So we could all have,
like, bling together.

Oh, my God!
You're so stupid!

I thought maybe
you guys would think...

Look at this on me.

[ Laughs ]
Ooh. You want to try it?

I want to try it on.
No?

I don't know if that'll
get over my hairdo.

This hip-hop, right here.

Exactly.
Here, let me have mine.

I'm just going to hold it.
Oh, man, it looks so good.

Where's mine?
Here.

I'm gonna do it like this.

That's so nice.
Like a double chain.

That's so nice.
How's that?

Here you go.
I'm rocking mine.

I'm doing mine
like a purse.

Oh, that's a great idea.

Yeah.
Oh!

The Bublettes, baby!

[ Indistinct ]

Get a shot of the Bublettes.

[ Laughing ]
Oh, you know what?

In one minute, I just
killed most of your credibility.

[ Laughter ]

That was, uh,
that was --

This is sick.
I get down with it.

I love it.
Let's go.

Mikey! What up, dawg?
What up, dawg?

[ Laughs ]

Alright.
Here we go.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Cameron!

With "You're All I Need
to Get By,"

here's Cameron Wright.

Let's go, Cam.

* You're all I need to get by *

* Ah, ah *

* Like sweet morning dew *

* Took one look at you *

* And it was plain to see *

* You were my destiny *

* With arms open wide *

* I threw away my pride *

* I'll sacrifice for you *

* I dedicate my life to you *

* I will go where you lead *

* I'll be right there
in the time of need *

* And when I lose my will *

* You be right there
to push me up the hill *

* There's no,
no looking back for us *

* We got love sure 'nough,
that's enough *

And so that's enough.

* You're all,
you're all I need *

* Like an eagle
protects his nest *

* I'm gonna do my best *

* Just like a tree, I dare
anybody to try to move me *

* Just to do
what's good for you *

* I'll inspire you higher *

* I know you can make a friend *

* Out of a soul
that didn't have a goal *

* We got the right foundation *

* And with love
and determination *

* You're all *

* You're all I need to get by *

* You, you're all I need *

* Need *

* You're all I need *

* You're all I need to get by *

* By, by, by, by *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Beautiful.

Daly: Coming up...

* ...can't catch me now *

You chose a duet,
and you did it by yourself.

That was just so incredible.

I'm no help.
I loved them both.
Yeah.

You're not going to pick?
I don't have to.

The winner
of this knockout is...

Oh, my God!

That was good.
I love that.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

Alright, Sloane.

She looks so pretty.
The outfit.

Now with
"You Can't Catch Me Now,"

here's Sloane Simon.

**

* There's blood
on the side of the mountain *

* There's writing
all over the wall *

* Shadows of us
are still dancin' *

* In every room, every hall *

* There's snow fallin'
over the city *

* You thought
that it would wash away *

* The bitter taste of my fury *

* And all of the messes
you made *

* Oh, you think
that you got away *

* But I'm in the trees,
I'm in the breeze *

* My footsteps on the ground *

* You'll see my face
in every place *

* But you can't catch me now *

* Through wading grass,
the months will pass *

* You'll feel it all around *

* I'm here, I'm there,
I'm everywhere *

* But you can't catch me now *

* No, you can't catch me now *

* Ohhh *

* You can't,
you can't catch me now *

* I'm comin' like a storm
into your town *

* You can't,
you can't catch me now *

* I'm higher than the hopes
that you brought down *

* You can't,
you can't catch me now *

* You can't, you can't,
you can't *

* There's blood
on the side of the mountain *

* It's turning
a new shade of red *

* Sometimes the fire
you founded *

* Don't burn the way
you would expect *

* Oh, you thought
that this was the end *

[ Cheers and applause ]

That was good.
I love that.

So good.
Thanks.

Cameron, you chose a duet,
and you did it by yourself.

Thank you.

You're making your people proud
at home just watching this.

Thank you very much.

Sloane.
Hi, Snoop!

You sounded
like you was in a movie.

Thank you.
One of them animated movies.

Something with the big budget
behind it.
[ Laughter ]

I loved your performance.

I loved everything
you stood for.

Thank you so much.
Thank you.

You're not going to pick?

I could pick,
but the thing is, Reba --
Yeah?

I don't have to.
I thought you was
going to say that.

That's not my job.
Good point, Mr. Dogg.

Thank you for that.

Sloane, your vocal is beautiful.

Your blocking and everything
was very subtle,

and it just let your voice
shine, which was wonderful.

Thank you, Reba.

Now, Cameron, I loved
your version of the song.

One of my favorites.

You've got a great range.

I'm going to call
a Snoop right here.

I'm absolutely no help
whatsoever.

I loved them both.
I still love you both,

even though
you didn't help me at all.

Cameron, as a performer,

your confidence,
your taste in runs,

and the way
that you just move on stage,

you're incredible.
Thank you.

My little muffin
that was on my team.

Sloane, you have
such a singer/songwriter voice.

I'm Team Sloane, because
that was just so incredible.

Thank you, Gwen.
Daly: Thank you, Coaches.

Mr. Bublé, before you tell
us who won, what'd you think?

Both of you,
it was an absolute privilege

to get to work with you.

Cameron, it's obvious that you
heard me and you executed.

And, Sloane, I was so excited
to see how you would grow.

And you have.

So thank you so much,
both of you.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Michael, who is
the winner of this knockout?

Um...

I promised myself that
I would try to be in the moment

and that I would think about
who I felt executed best.

And the winner
of this knockout is...

Cameron.

Cameron Wright,
congratulations!

You're moving on
to the playoffs.

I picked Cameron

because their vocal
performance was perfection.

I feel like the show
is called "The Voice,"

and it wouldn't be fair

if they didn't have
a seat going forward.

I am going to the playoffs,
and I am ecstatic!

Okay.

Coaches, let me remind you
that Sloane is available

to steal or save.

Sloane, anything
you want to say to Michael?

Michael, thank you so much.

It's been such a pleasure
working with you.

This has been such
an amazing time.

Give it up one more time
for Sloane Simon,

ladies and gentlemen.

[ Cheers and applause ]

We've got a save!

I'm saving you,
for sure.

I saved Sloane because
she's a star in the making.

We're staying together.
We're staying together!

We're staying together.
Wow!

Michael:
She has a really sweet voice.

I think she's capable
of tackling different genres.

I just love that
I could be a small part of it.

I'm feeling very overwhelmed
and very thankful.

I wasn't expecting that.

I'm so grateful to Sloane
for -- for keeping me.

Thanks for keeping me.

No, listen, honestly,
you were so good.

And, um, and I love
working with you,

and I can't stop.

Congratulations.
Thank you.

Go have fun.
Thank you.
