Yee-haw!

It is officially night two
of the playoffs.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Tonight, the playoffs
are all about Team Reba

and, of course, the king
of the coast, Team Snoop.

Reba: No more steals.
No more saves.

My team is so ready.

I feel like a proud mama.

Team Snoop!

* Are you ready for it? *

As our mentor, we have the
literal U.S. gymnastics icon --

the Simone Biles.

* Baby, let the games begin *

* Let the games begin *

* Let the games begin now *

* Baby, let the games begin *

* Let the games begin *

The GOAT, the icon, the legend.

She knows what it takes
to perform under pressure.

Simone is everything to me.
I'm so excited.

Team Snoop ain't playing around,
because you know what?

That woman knows how to win.

Tonight is all about Team Reba.

[ Gasps ]

Team Reba's Mega Mentor
is -- drum roll, please.

[ Imitates drum roll ]

Lainey Wilson.

* 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' *

Grammy Award winner.

The ACM
Entertainer of the Year.

Adam: The hottest woman on the
country music scene right now.

Let's show them how it's done.
Team Reba represent.

Alright, guys,
I had torture-ville already.

This group is so good,
and it was really difficult.

I'm tripping.
I have to go last.

You guys
got to do this tonight.

I've got to watch
you guys do this now.

How do you feel?

I feel great about it.
Yeah?

I've got five
great contestants.
Yeah.

Any one of them can win
'cause they're that good.

This is the big fish
right here tonight.
Yeah.

There's only two slots
remaining on our team.
That's it.

So you got to put
your best foot forward.

Alright, let's do it.

Let's eat.
[ Speaks indistinctly ]

Come on in
to "The Voice."

Yay!

I'm such a fan
of Lainey.

Lainey Wilson,
ladies and gentlemen.
What's goin' on?

She's an actress.
She's a singer.

She's a little firecracker
onstage.

She has just erupted.
Thank you.

What's going on?

I've been a fan of "The Voice"
since "The Voice" started.

I remember me and my family
would sit around and watch it.

And I dreamed about
being on the show.

Reba: The last time I saw you,
you were here for "The Voice"

when you performed.
Yes.

And that's when I gave you
the belt buckle.

I'd like to be the person
to invite you...
Oh, my...

...to be a official member
of the Grand Ole Opry.

[ Cheers and applause ]

When you had this little box,
I was like,

"She got me a little cupcake
or something for my birthday,"

and then I open it up
and --

Welcome
to the Grand Ole Opry.

Welcome to
The Grand Ole Opry.

Truthfully, I feel like
I'm just going to be

sharing wisdom
that's been shared with me.

We've been so blessed
to have women before us to pave,

but it's our job now
to help pave the way

for the newcomers
coming up.

So we're gonna bring Adam in.
Let's do it.

Hoo! I'm not ready.

I'm nervous.
[ Laughs ]

Reba:
Hey, there he is!
[ Laughing ] Hi.

Such a fan.
Can I -- Can I give you a hug?
Oh, my God.

Oh, please.
No, we're hugging it out.
[ Laughs ] Yeah.

Lainey Wilson.
Lainey. Can I call her Lainey?

We're friends now, right?
Lainey, my friend Lainey.

I'm -- I'm nervous.

Yeah, right. No way.
Why are you nervous?

Lainey Wilson is such
a warmhearted person.

She's one of those people

that makes you feel
both really comfortable

and also like she knows
what she's talking about.

So you picked
Chris Stapleton's song...

Yes, "I Think
I'm in Love with You."
Come on.

I'm trying to give it like a
Al Green-ish sort of vibe to it.

* Baby, do you ever wonder *

This song is
about loving somebody.

My wife is an extension of me.

We've been married
about six years now.

There have been points
in my life where I felt like

I can't accomplish
any of my dreams,

but she's always there
to tell me that I'm worth it.

I want to make Erin proud.

I definitely want to make it
to the live shows.

I want to be in the Top 8.

* You're all of everything
to me *

Lainey: Right when Adam
walked in, I thought,

this guy has
just a-a good heart.

* Woman *

He's got it going on.
Got that soul.

It's a perfect song
for him.

It's just an incredible song
in general.
It is.

But he does it
a lot of justice.
Yeah.

Let's go!
Thank you so much.

I couldn't tell
if you were reading the lyrics

or you just
getting emotional.

You had your eyes closed
the whole time.

I'm a stickler.
You know, I was thinking,

"Look at me, look at me,
the audience."

In your defense, it is
kind of crazy staring at Reba.

I know.

[ Laughter ]

Once you got, like,
halfway into the song...

Yeah.
...I was, like, roped in,

but I know that you can
rope 'em in immediately.

Sure. Yeah.
And I think it's just

getting sexy on them
even on that first line,

'cause you got sexy on them
halfway through, you know.

He did.
That's what I'm going for,

a little bit of that.
That's right.

When you were just, like,
repeating the hook

over and over...
Yeah.

...maybe you quit
playing your guitar.

I was thinking that, too.
Oh, my God.

It's like you're telling
the mic, "I think I'm in love."

Get up in there
on that last part.

* I think I'm in love
with you *

* I didn't know it
at the time *

I love Adam's voice.

He is definitely the swampy
soul artist of our team.
Mm-hmm.

What I'm hoping Adam does
on the playoffs

is get up there
and do what he did right there.
That's right.

What can I do to, like,
maximize this experience?

This woman,
she says "yes" to everything

if it doesn't go against
who she is,

and there's nothing
that she can't do.
Sure.

I can't make a pie.

I'll make a pie.
I'm great at pie.

Good.
Thank you. See?

I'm getting something
out of this.

That's right,
that's right.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Let's go, Adam.

Whoo-hoo!

With "Think I'm in Love
with You,"

here is Adam Bohanan.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

**

* Baby, do you ever wonder *

* Whatever happened
way back when *

* Or if I'll see you again *

* And, baby,
do you ever wonder *

* Ah, you might wish
things could change *

* I know this might
sound strange but *

* I think I'm in love with you *

* I didn't know it at the time *

* I know what I wanna do *

* It's making me lose my mind *

* I thought about
thinking it through *

* And every time I do I find *

* I wanna make your dreams
come true *

* I think I'm in love with you *

* I'm in love with you *

* Oh, you are the power
over me *

* You are the truth
that I believe *

* You are my life,
you are my world *

* You are the air
I'm breathing, girl *

* You are the light
I wanna see *

* You're all of everything
to me *

* You are the reasons
that I am *

* Woman *

[ Laughs ]

**

* I think I'm in love with you *

* I didn't know it at the time *

* I know what I wanna do *

* It's making me lose my mind *

* I thought about
thinking it through *

* And every time I do I find *

* I wanna make your dreams
come true *

* I think I'm in love with you,
oh, oh *

* I think I'm in love with you *

* I didn't know it at the time *

* I know what I wanna do *

* It's making me lose my mind *

* I thought about
thinking it through *

* And every time I do I find *

* I wanna make your dreams
come true *

* I think I'm in love with you *

* I'm in love with you *

* I'm in love with you *

* I'm in love with you *

* Yeah *

* I'm in love with you *

* I'm in love with you *

Hey!

* I'm in lo-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-ve *

* With you *

[ Cheers and applause ]

How about that?
I liked it.

Daly: That is Adam Bohanan,
everybody.

Whoo-ooh! Ow!

Gwen, what'd you think?

You're so calm, composed.

Each lyric
is just right there.

At the same time,
playing guitar.

It's like it's nothing
for you to do that.

It's really hard, but I do
appreciate your perspective.

You're really,
really good.

Thank you so much.
Michael?

I think as well as wanting
to hear more of your music,

I want to drink my whiskey
with you.

I'm down
to drink whiskey.

You know what I love?
On "The Voice,"

once in a while,
you get somebody with a voice,

but then they transcend that
by really being an artist.

And I feel like
that's what you are.

So congratulations
once again, dude.

Thank you so much, Michael.
I appreciate it.

Snoop Dogg.

You made me stand up.
I normally don't stand up.

I saw that.
I was very excited.

You gave me something similar
to the Gangster Holy Ghost.

You felt like you was
really in performance mode.

You had no fear.

You're an artist that is gonna

take advantage
of this opportunity,

and we're gonna hear
real music from you.
Amen.

Thank you.
Reba.

Adam, oh, my gosh.

You keep
getting better and better.

And when Lainey told you
to put the guitar down

and get out there in front,
you did it.

You put your personality
in with this song

and was telling all of us,
"Hey, I'm in love."

You did it really good, too.
So proud of you.

Thank you.

Adam Bohanan,
everybody!

Adam's got that dirty soul.

Man, he's raspy, he's growly.

He's got a terrific range.

I love your look
you're going for today.
I know.

The thing about Adam
is he's a one-chair turn,

and then next thing you know,
he can do anything.

He can do runs.
He can be soulful.

The guy is just
a gifted musician.

He's talented.

That was his best performance.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to night two of the playoffs.

Snoop: I'd like to bring in
someone special.

Not the regular
or the usual or the expected,

but something that's...gold.

**

I brought my stilts
today.

Are we -- Are we
the same height, finally?

We're close.
Let me see.

Finally.
[ Laughs ]

[ Laughs ]

I brought
Simone Biles in

because the things that she
went through, go through,

and how she has to
prepare herself,

this is what these artists
are actually experiencing.

I'm gonna need you, like,
to really, like,

give them some advice

as far as how to
deal with the pressure.
Yeah.

And sometimes the mental

is more important
than anything.

Yeah, I agree.

I'm a huge music fan.
I love "The Voice."

I know the hard work
and dedication

that it takes
when you're an amateur

and then you decide
to go professional.

You just have to make sure
that they believe in themselves.

And then I think as far as
how to accept losses,

not take them as losses,
but lessons.

Oh, 100%.

This is one quote
from the Dogg and the GOAT.

If you floating on the boat,
get on the right note

and don't lose
your stroke.
Oh!

And when it comes
to the coach on "The Voice,"

you know
who get the vote.

Mic drop.

Now.
[ Laughs ]

I'm ready.
Thank you.

Alright.

Hi.

Walking in
and seeing Simone Biles...

Can I hug you?
Oh, my God.
Yes, of course.

...it just blew my mind.

It's such an honor
to meet you.

Oh, you too.
[ Squeals ]

I'm so excited
to hear you sing.
I ain't never made her cry.

She done been around me
a whole bunch of times.

Like, you --
you made her cry.
No, because I know your story.

Yeah.
And, like -- Oh, okay.

You resonate?
Oh, yeah.

Simone is really inspirational
to me

because she has overcome a lot
to get where she is.

I know that you started
in foster care, right?
Simone: Yes.

And you were raised
by your grandparents.
Mm-hmm.

I was also raised
by my grandparents.
Aww.

My dad died two weeks before
I was born in a car accident,

my mom, when I was 1,
in a car accident.

Oh, my gosh.

I know you went through
a time

where you dealt with
paralyzing fear.

Yeah.
And I'm still
overcoming that.

And so am I.
It's not easy every single day.

I still go through
ups and downs.

But that is
the mental health journey.

Yeah.
Believe in yourself,
and it gets better.

And also,
it's okay to not be okay.

It's okay. Yeah.

And I love the way
you confess it.

You're confessing to her.
Yeah, very authentic.

That's the only way
we get it out.
Yeah.

That's why she's here.

It never stopped
being real.
Right.

I've always been authentic,
real, and raw

because people can relate.

If you can keep staying true
to who you are...

Yeah.
...they're gonna love it.

God Almighty.
I'm gonna get me some game
dropped on me.

Lord!
We need a lot of tissue now,

'cause they done
got my eyes watery. Help!
Yeah.

And now we're gonna be like,
"Are you ready to sing?"

Oh, I'm ready!

* Well, I remember it all
very well looking back *

Christina Eagle will be singing
"Fancy" by Reba McEntire,

and Reba will be sitting
right next to me.

So I'll be
giving her this...

[ Laughs ]

...this look,
because Christina's

gonna knock it
out the park.

* She said, here's your
one chance, Fancy *

I've seen Christina grow
into a full-grown woman,

finding her true self and doing
the things that makes her happy.

And she's
an amazing talent.

I couldn't let her
get away.

* Forgive me
for what I do *

Christina;
There's definitely times

where I think about
my biological parents

and what it would be like
if they were here

and just seeing me on the stage.

And, like --

* And then I got me
a Georgia mansion *

I just believe that
they would be so proud of me.

* ...New York
townhouse flat *

* And I ain't done bad *

That's why this song
is so special to me,

because it does not matter
where you came from.

You canlive your dreams.

* Well, I guess she did *

I not only want to make
Snoop Dogg proud,

but I also want
to make Reba proud.

* Ohhhhh *

Whoo!
Whoo!

That's the Gangster Holy Ghost
right there.
Yes!

Oh, my God.
That's right.

Oh!
Thank you.

I love how you really
fall into yourself,

because it reminds me if I'm
going out with my girls at a bar

and it's, like,
an undiscovered artist.

Yes.
You just sing to have fun

and you love it,
'cause it's not forced.

You'll sing at a bar
or you'll sing at a concert.
Right.

Exactly.
I love it.

You sounded so good,
Christina Eagle.

Thank you.
Reba gonna be proud.

I hope so.
It's Reba song.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And it's, like, very wordy.

So, like, it made me
a little nervous at first.

Don't overthink it.
Right.

It's more or less like, "Let me
show you how much I love you."

Yes.
"Snoop is my coach, but
he ain't got nothing like this."

[ Laughter ]

I expect you to headline
the Houston Rodeo soon.

Yes, ma'am.
Okay?

You better speak that
into existence.
Yes, I am.

I'm gonna come see you.
I love this.

I think Christina
just needs confidence.

And I truly believe
today gave her just that.

It's nice that my story
can touch other people

and teach them
to also speak their truth.

I think that's
what she needed --

someone else to believe in her
and resonate with her story.

He didn't give you guys
easy songs.

He's really pulling out
the best of the best

out of everyone.
He is.

He went to the Olympics
and was like,

"I know how to seek out
the best artists now."

I love what you about,
who you are.

I don't look at you
as a singer.
Yeah.

I look at you
as family, so...

That's exactly
how I feel about you.

I love the other coaches,
but you are.

You're my family.
I was like, "I have to stay.

I have to stay."

It is intimidating
knowing the teams

are going from five
to two people.

So I really got to
have the most fun

and be the most Christina
that I can.

Snoop Dogg
is gonna have no choice

but to want to send me
to the lives.

Oh, my God.
Those boots are made
for walkin'.

Yes.
Oh, yeah. I'mma fly.

That's just what
they gonna do.

With "Fancy,"
here is Christina Eagle.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* Well, I remember it all
very well lookin' back *

* It was the summer
I turned eighteen *

* We lived in a one-room,
rundown shack *

* On the outskirts
of New Orleans *

* We didn't have money
for food or rent *

* To say the least
we were hard-pressed *

* Then Mama spent
every last penny we had *

* To buy me a dancin' dress *

* She handed me a heart-shaped
locket that said *

* "To thine own self be true" *

* Then I shivered as I watched
a roach crawl across *

* The toe of
my high-heel shoe *

* It sounded like somebody else
that was talkin' *

* Askin', Mama, what do I do *

* She said, just be nice
to the gentlemen, Fancy *

* They'll be nice to you *

* She said, here's your
one chance, Fancy *

* Don't let me down *

Come on.

* Here's your one chance, Fancy,
don't let me down *

* Lord, forgive me
for what I do *

* But if you want out,
well, it's up to you *

* Don't let me down, hon, your
mama's gonna move you uptown *

Hey!

* It wasn't long after
a benevolent man *

[ Laughs ]
* Took me in off the streets *

Unh.
* And one week later
I was pourin' his tea *

* Yes, she was *
* In a five-room hotel suite *

* I charmed a king,
a congressman *

* And an occasional aristocrat *

* And then I got me
a Georgia mansion *

Hey!
* And an elegant
New York townhouse flat *

Come on!
* And I ain't done bad *

* And she ain't done bad *

Whoo!
Come on!

* Now in this world there's
a lot of self-righteous *

* Hypocrites that call me bad *
* Bad *

* And criticize Mama
for turning me out *

* No matter how little we had *

* But though I ain't
had to worry 'bout nothin' *

* For nigh on fifteen years *

* Well, I can still hear
the desperation *

* In my poor mama's voice
ringin' in my ears *

* Here's your one chance,
Fancy, don't let me down *

* Oh oh oh oh oh *

* Here's your one chance, Fancy,
don't let me down *

* Lord, forgive me
for what I do *

* But if you want out,
well, it's up to you *

* Don't let me down, hon, your
mama's gonna move you uptown *

* Oh *

* Don't let me down, hon, your
mama's gonna move you uptown *

Hey!

* Ooh, Fancy *

* Don't let me *

* Do-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-wn *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Daly: That is Christina Eagle
from Team Snoop, everybody.

Thank you.

Reba,
let's start with you.

Really?
Oh, my gosh.

That was incredible.

Just for you, Mama.

I love the way
you changed it around.
Yeah.

Your choreography
was great.

You were passionate
about it.

Wonderful, wonderful job.
Thank you so much.

Thank you.
Michael.

Reba, did you do the hip thing,
too, when you sang it?

No. I-I-I get a catch
in my get-along if I do that.

[ Laughter ]
Can't do it.

Michael: There are so many
reasons to love you.

Congratulations
on being so great.
Thank you so much.

Gwen.

That song is really hard

because it's a character song,
it's telling a story.

And then under the pressure
of having the queen sit here

and watch you and judge you,
like, I mean, what?
Right?

I am really excited for you
and your future.

Thank you so much.
Aah!

Coach Snoop,
what'd you think?

You performed
with such confidence.

Like, you damn near walked
over here to me and Reba

and walked in our laps.
I wanted to.

That's courageousness.
You took charge.

And that's some of the things
that I was looking for from you.

Thank you
for making me happy.

You make me happy.
How about another big hand

for Christina Eagle
from Team Snoop?

[ Cheers and applause ]

Thank you so much.

Christina's
the complete package.

I love you.

Thank you for giving me
that song.

If I was to move forward
with her,

votes would be coming in
left and right.

She's young, sensational,
willing to be on the edge.

She's what America's about.
The Eagle has landed.

And now, Reba, when I see you
do that song, I can't wait to...

[ Laughter ]
Reba: I'm telling you.

Sexy Memaw
can't do that no more.

[ Laughter ]

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly:
Welcome back to the playoffs.

You tried out for "The Voice"
seven times?

I tried out seven times.
And look where you are now.

It's pretty crazy.
That shows you

if you want something,
you got to fight for it.

You got to stay in there.
That's right.

That's right. Mm-hmm.
You're gonna get
a lot of noes.

That's what we keep
telling everybody

when we have to
make decisions.

Okay, so this next guy that's
coming out, his name is Edward.

Yes.
And he's my crooner.

I stole Edward
away from Michael, and --

[ Laughs ] They gonna
arrest you for that?

Oh, you're so sweet, Reba.
Come here.

Now we're doing
a Michael song here.

That's right.
Uh-huh.

He's gonna be like,
"What?"

[ Laughs ]

Do your thing.
Have fun.

* Why not
take all of me *

The song "All of Me,"
it's obviously been covered

by Frank Sinatra,
now Michael Bublé.

I always knew
I wanted to do this genre.

I'm very passionate about it,

and I wanted to draw in
more people to it

and educate them about this.

I post videos online.

A lot of people would say,
"You inspire me,"

and that made me feel like
I was doing something important.

I'm here representing
this genre.

[ Both laugh ]

And I just want
more people to hear it.

* I'm just a mess *

I mean, if he came out
and did any other song,

it just wouldn't
fit him.

Even when it comes, like,
to "Bell Bottom" for me,

I realized in the business
that I needed to do something

that kind of
made me stand out.

And so I just look at him.

He's got it figured out
that that's who he is.

And it's endearing.
Yeah, it is.

I get the biggest kick out of
him doing his arm movements.

I know. I was like --
You know, he knows exactly --

He was getting it, wasn't he?
Yeah. [ Laughs ]

He's cute as a button.
I know.

* Meeeeee *

[ Piano outro plays ]

Why are my hands
shaking?

Just relax.

Just relax?
Do your thing.

What was it like, you know,
starting up your career?

Were there any
ups and downs?

I still have ups and downs,
you know.

Like, I-I've been living
in Nashville

trying to do country music now
for 13 years.

There's been
lots of noes,

but I have somehow tried
to turn those noes into yeses.

It's just about, like,
not getting down.

That's at least what I've done.
You know what I'm saying?

I hear you.
We're amongst friends here.

No worries whatsoever.

* You took the part *

Edward: To go on to lives,
that would be crazy.

I think that would actually
make me fall over, possibly,

but I'm not there yet.

Yeah, that was
a thousand times better.

And also
your charisma.

My charisma?
Yeah.

Like, I feel like you just,
like, came to life.

Way to go, Edward.

You remind me so much
of Frank Sinatra.

Really?
Yeah, it's crazy because

one of his nicknames
was "The Voice."

It's cool.

[ Cheers and applause ]

With "All of Me,"
here is Edward Preble.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

[ Laughs ]
Yeah, let's go, Ed.

* All of me *

* Why not take all of me *

* Can't you see *

* I'm no good without you *

* Take my lips *

* I want to lose them *

* Take my arms *

* I'll never use them *

* Your goodbyes *

* Left me with eyes that cry *

* How can I *

* Ever make it without you *

* You took the part *

* That once was my heart *

* So why not *

* Why not take all of me *
* Take all of me *

Work, nephew!
That's right.
* Your goodbyes *

* Left me with eyes that cry *

* How can I *

* Ever make it without you *
* You *

* Now that you took the part *

* That used to be my heart *

**

Whoa! Oh, my gosh.

* All of me *

* Why not take all of me? *

* Can't you see *

* I'm just a mess without you *

* You took the part *

* Used to be my heart *

* So why not *

* Why not take all of me *

* Why not *

* Take all of *

* Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee *

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

Yeah!
Daly: That is Edward Preble,
everybody.

Yeah!

Michael, we'll go
right to you, of course.

You're everything that I love
about music

and -- and this business.

And your humility
shines through always.

This arrangement
that you have,

I did this arrangement.

You just paid
such wonderful tribute.

I'm proud of you.

And you're so cute, man.
I love you.

Congratulations, Edward.

Thank you, Michael.

Snoop Dogg.

I'm such a big fan of yours

on how you stepped your game up
on your showmanship.

You had the confidence like,
"Okay, I got to make sure

my thing is together now."

Congratulations to you
for loving this music

and doing a great job tonight.

Thank you.
Coach Reba.

I was so thrilled
to get to steal you from Michael

because you fascinate me.

You look like you walked
right out of the Rat Pack.

And I'm so glad
that you can share your talent

with the rest of the world,

and they'll fall in love
with you just as we have.

Thank you.
How about another big hand,
everybody, for Edward Preble?

What I love about Edward --
He's different.

He's engaging.

Way to go.

Everybody leans forward
just a little bit more

when Edward gets on the stage

because we want to see
what he does.

Adam did everything
he was supposed to do and more.

And Edward did the same thing.

So I don't know
what I'm gonna do.

[ Laughs ]

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to "The Voice."

Snoop: Me watching you
at the Olympics...
Simone: Mm-hmm.

...how does it make you feel
when you look in the crowd

and you see celebrities
and entertainers supporting you?
Yeah.

It was truly an honor
and so special for us,

and it made us want
to step up even more

and really go after
that gold.

Just watching how y'all
loved each other

and supported each other,
you a true leader.

Thank you.
I appreciate that.

And then when you're
on the floor performing,

who picks that music?

We actually do.

So you -- you deejayed
your own list?
So, yes.

That's all us.
I love that.

Ah!
[ Laughs ]

Hi.
Hi.

I was expecting Snoop
to pick someone really big.

However, it was quite a surprise

that he brought in
theSimone Biles.

I love Simone Biles.

She is the--
literally thegymnast.

Simone, congratulations...
Oh, thank you.

...on your new medals.
Thank you.

And although Simone isn't
a singer, she's so inspiring.

She's been so resilient,

and she's never
let anything hold her back.

So, Aliyah,
I was telling Simone,

"Maybe if I gave her
a challenge

of a Whitney Houston record,

she could really
show the world

what I see and feel
and hear in her."

You're going for a tear from
Snoop Dogg and his eyes closed.

Yes.
That's how you win
your coach over.

[ Laughs ]

* I don't really
need to look *
Come on.

I am singing "I Have Nothing"
by Whitney Houston.

Me, my mom, and my sister

would dance
to Whitney Houston's music,

and it was something
that brought us together

for a moment of joy
and laughter.

* Close one more door *

This song reminds me
of how my siblings and I

have been there for each other
since my mother passed.

My sister Ahniya is more
than 10 years older than me.

She was like my second mom.

She's been there for me
and my brother.

I know that I will never
meet another person like her.

[ Sniffles ] Um...

And she's very strong.

* I will always
love you *

Wow!
He gave you this song.

And your voice
is so powerful.

Don't be afraid to bop,

'cause I see you started
to get into it.
Yeah, uh-huh.

And then you're like, "Hold on.
I got to concentrate."
Right.

Go into it with that spirit of,
"I do this all the time.

This is my record, and I'm gonna
show you why I'm still here."

My mom would always tell me
to be the best Simone,

because at the end
of the day,

it's me, myself,
and I out there.
Exactly.

And if you start repeating these
to yourself -- "I got it"...

Right, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
..."Step into that power,"
"Own it" --

you really become
who you're talking about.

As a black woman
coming into a room,

stepping in and owning
that power is very hard to do.
It is.

But I can already see
you don't care and you own it.
Yeah.

And so that confidence is there,
and don't stray away from that.

Keep it.
That's awesome.

I love this black girl magic
right here.
Yeah.

Let me get out
the way of it.

Aliyah is performing
one of the hardest songs

that you could ever give to
somebody to sing on this show.
Yes.

But she was like,
"This is the vocal ability

you guys believe I have."
Yes. Yes.

And she does.

This is a record
that can give her an advantage

to try to be one
of the final two standing.
Mm-hmm.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Yay!

Damn, that is beautiful,
that dress.

So pretty.

With "I Have Nothing,"
here is Aliyah Khaylyn.

[ Cheers and applause ]

* Share my life *

* Take me for what I am *

* 'Cause I'll never change *

* All my colors for you *

* Take my love *
Yes.

* I'll never ask for too much *

Whoa.
* Just all that you are *

* And everything that you do *

* Ooo *

* I don't really need to look *

* Very much further *

* I don't want to have to go *
Get it, girl.

* Where you don't follow *

* I won't hold it back again *

* This passion inside *

* Can't run from myself *

* There's nowhere
to hi-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-de *

* Don't make me close *
* Don't make me close *

* One more door *

* I don't wanna hurt anymore *

* Stay in my arms if you dare *
Ow!

* Or must I imagine you there? *

* Don't walk away from me, no *

* I have nothing *

* Nothing, nothing *

* Don't make me close *

* One more door *

* I don't wanna hurt anymore *

* Stay in my arms if you dare *
Oh-ho!

* Or must I imagine you there? *

* Don't walk away from me *

* No *

* Don't walk away from me *

* Don't you dare
walk away from me *

* I have nothing *

* Nothing,
nothi-i-i-i-i-i-i-ng *

* If I don't *

* Have
you-ou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ou *

I'm in shock right now.

* Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Wow.

That is Aliyah Khaylyn,
everybody, from Team Snoop.

My goodness. Michael Bublé,
former coach, talk to us.

Whitney Houston is one
of the greatest icons and voices

in the history of music.

Not only did you pay tribute,
but you also made it yours.

And I'm so happy to see you
here, 'cause you're amazing.

Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you, Coach. Reba.

If you don't have music
out soon, I'm gonna cry,

'cause I love your voice.

You're so good.

Thank you.
Gwen.

This is, like,
one of the hardest songs ever.

When I heard that tone in
your voice and heard the runs,

I feel like this is your lane.

This is so exciting.
Yes.

Congratulations.
Thank you. Thank you.

Snoop, what did you see
in Aliyah's performance?

I saw greatness,

and I believe Simone
gave you some information

about standing
in your own power.

Yes.
You stood
in your power tonight.

I'm trying to hold back
the tears,

because you set yourself up
for stardom.
Oh, please.

And I'm honored
to have been your coach.

You pleased me tonight.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Aliyah, she did exactly
what I wanted her to do.

The way she performed, she is
definitely on that turntable

as far as who's
gonna go with me.

That was so shocking.
Whoo-hoo-hoo!

Aliyah, formerly of Team Bublé,
I love her a lot,

and I'm really happy for her.

Team Snoop has
some really huge threats.

I need
some tissue help.

Thank you, Reba.

You've come
to the right place.

Daly: Coming up...
Both: * Just know
they're singing along *

Daly: ...Lainey Wilson coaches
on her hit "Hang Tight Honey."

Katie O: * Hang tight, honey,
I'm a white line running *

* Down a dream
on a long-lost highway *

Daly: And later, Team Reba
and Team Snoop

continue to fight for a spot in
next week's live semifinals...

* Sta-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-r *

I haven't been that touched
until you.
Aww.

Daly: ...leading to
the most difficult decisions

of the season.
Whew.

Y'all are all so good.

The last choice will be...

I'm taking this time
to push my steal button.

[ Cheering ]

There is no steal button,
is there?

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

Man: You ready?
Katie O: Ready.

[ Gasps ]
[ Laughs ]

Oh, my gosh.

Oh, Katie O.

I have died and gone
to country music heaven.

When I saw Lainey and Reba,
oh, my gosh.

I'm, like, still on
cloud, like, 15.

I was praying
it would be you.

She's someone I've admired
my whole entire life.

I've watched her career,
Entertainer of the Year.

She's one
of my favorite artists.

And she sounds
like us.

I know it.
Oh, my gosh.

[ Laughter ]
She might be
even more Southern.

I can't believe I'm singing
"Hang Tight Honey"
and you're here.

I will be singing a Lainey song
in front of Lainey.

It does not even feel
like real life, to be honest.

I really want to do
this song justice.

I'm super excited
to sing "Hang Tight Honey"

just 'cause it talks about
life on the road.

And even though
you make sacrifices

and you miss
the ones you love,

you just keep on pushing through
'cause you love it.

That's why I wrote it.
I mean...

We're running up
and down the roads,

but it's about working hard
for your people,

and that's what
it's all about.

* I got a bus
'fore I got a house *

* 'Cause that's what
dreams make you do *

Katie O:
Growing up, I did miss

the traditional
high school experience

and things like
birthday parties, weddings

because of music.

* Just one more day
to get through *

This song makes me think
of the times

I have slept in the car
on the way to Nashville,

getting dressed
at the thrift store,

curling my hair
at the rest stop.

But it's all worth it,
'cause there's no other place

I'd rather be
than singing onstage.

* ...white line running down a
dream on a long lost highway *

I love everything
about Katie O.
I do, too.

She's just
the total package.

She absolutely crushed it.
She made it her own.

You could tell
she was enjoying it.

It's just like an infectious
energy that she's got.

And that's what it takes
right there

is -- is an attitude like that
to cut through.

I think she fits
in country music perfectly

'cause she talks it,
she sings it.

You can tell she just
genuinely loves country music.

* Home to you *

I almost forgot the lyrics
like three times,

'cause seeing her sitting there
was just crazy.

[ Laughs ] That was great.
So good.

That last note got me.
I was like --

Oh, girl, that last note
gets me every night.

I'm not gonna lie, this is
kind of putting some things

into perspective for me.

Thank you
for doing my song.

Don't be scared
to manhandle that mic stand.

That's a great idea
to go through the lyrics.

When a lyric
calls for movement,

save it
and make it special.
That's it.

Yes, ma'am.
Yeah, I agree.

My piece of advice
would be something

that I actually learned
from this woman,

is her delivery,
how she bites her words.

Like -- * I bought a bus
'fore I got a house *

Kind of brings it
back in a little bit.
Ooh.

Both: * Just know
they're singing along *

* To all them songs
that I wrote about you *

Lainey: When I sat down
to write this song,

I was thinking about
all the hardworking women

who bust their tail
to earn a living for the family.

And you could tell that
when Katie O was singing it,

she was -- she felt it.

If it touches
her heart first,

she sings it,
it touches my heart,

she's done her job,
and she did.

You got to sing
with Lainey Wilson.

That was the coolest thing ever.
Oh, my goodness.

Lainey: Oh, my gosh.
That's great.

[ Cheers and applause ]

With "Hang Tight Honey,
here is Katie O.

[ Cheers and applause ]

* Woo woo *

* Woo woo woo woo *

Whoo!

[ Cheers and applause ]

[ Song ends ]

Daly: That's how you do it
in the playoffs.

Give it up for Katie O,
everybody.

Michael Bublé,
it's like we're in Nashville

at the Katie O show.

You know what I love
about Taylor Swift?

I love the Taylor is good
and kind and sweet.

And you are that.

You're humble, fun to watch,
and natural.

And congratulations
on killing it

in such a big-time,
you know, playoff performance.

Oh, thank you so much.

Gwen.
That means so much.

It's just hard to believe
that you have so much skill

at such a young age.

And you have such a warm,
beautiful,

round tone to your voice.

And your smile, everything --
I just --

You know I'm a fan.
I'm so happy for you.

Oh, my goodness.
Really great performance.

Thank you so much, Gwen.
Reba.

Have you had a really good
time doing "The Voice"?

I literally
can't stop smiling.

Like, I know you see me
smiling onstage,

but it's the same
when I get off.

[ Laughter ]

That's what I wanted
America to see --

that bubbliness.

You're fun.
You're a breath of fresh air.

And you did a really good job
on Lainey's song.

Way to go.
Thank you so much, Reba.

Katie O, everybody.
Whoo!

[ Speaking indistinctly ]

Katie O is my country girl.

She was confident.
She looked great.

And she represents
country music very well.

Way to go.
You did great.

So, Katie O, Adam,
and Edward have gone.

Got two more to go.
It's been an incredible night.

Not over yet.

It's gonna be a lot of tears,

a lot of emotion,
and hard decisions to make.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the playoffs

at Universal Studios Hollywood.

You know,
I started out the day,

I know exactly who
I'm going to pick...

Pbht!
It's down the drain?

They are so good!

They're making it
so hard on me.

So you're unclear now,
Reba?

'Cause I've seen you dancing
to certain people's music

like you weren't supposed
to be dancing.

Can't control that.
See, it's the Gangster
Holy Ghost

when he gets in you,
Reba.

It's the Country Western
Holy Ghost.

There it is.
There it is.

I don't know
who I'm picking,

so my decision is still
in the air.

And I feel like
your performers

and my performers
have been completely unique.

I hope you get
to pick first.

I think this is the part

where a therapist is supposed
to come in

and deal with
our trauma.

They're right around
the corner.

I need to see them.

Let's go find
that therapist.

Come on.

Whoa!

-[ Laughs ] Hi!
-Simone Biles.

This is one
of the greatest athletes,

not just gymnasts, of all time.

I get to hug Simone?

11 medals.
Like, that's greatness.

What she's overcome,
what she continues to do --

she's an inspiration.

I want to show my daughters
that anything is possible.

I got four beautiful girls.

I talk to them every day.

So when they check on me,

I have something really cool
to tell them.

I love that.
Girl dad.

Girl dad!

* Ooooh *

I'm singing "Adore"
by Prince.

And this is truly
about love and loyalty.

This song reminds me of the love
that my mother has for me.

* Be there for you *

She's always
supported me in my dreams,

and she would scrounge up money
so we could drive

and do talent shows.

She's the first person
who hears my music

when I come out of the studio.

She wanted to be
a singer,

and she was scared
to chase her dreams,

and so I'm here to chase
those dreams for my mother.

* That night,
I had to call you *

Prince, to me, is the greatest
artist of all time.

* Till the sun came up *

That's why I feel
the pressure for this song.

I want to show the world
what I can do.

I truly hope
that I do Prince justice.

And hopefully that gets me
to lives.

Wow!

Man, that was
a backflip twist...

It was a triple double.

Thank you.
13 feet in the air, buddy.

That was high!
Appreciate you, man.

One note --
don't get out of falsetto.

You doing a Prince record.

Stay there the whole way,
'cause you killing it.

I'mma do that.

It's a song can sing you,
but you sang the song.

Talk that talk, Simone.
She in here dropping jewels.

I'm over here speechless
like, "Yeah, what she said."

[ Laughs ]
Exactly.

He stayed true to
who he was through and through.

He was like,
"This is who I am.

This is my voice,"
and let it be loud and heard.

You know how much I love you,
brother.

Snoop: What Austyns has to do
to make it to the live show

is to do exactly what he did,

which is singing this song
the best of his ability

and making us feel the record
rather than hear the record.

[ Cheers and applause ]

With "Adore,"
here's Austyns Stancil.

[ Cheers and applause continue ]

* Oooooh *

* Oh, oh, ohhhh *

* Until the end of time *

* I'll be there for you *

* You own my heart and mind *

* I truly adore you *

* If God one day
struck me blind *

* Struck me blind *

* Your beauty I'll still see *

[ Singing indistinctly ]

* Just what you mean to me *

* From the first moment
I saw you *

* Ooh, I knew you were the one *

* That night,
I had to call you *

* I was rappin'
till the sun came up *

* Tellin' you
just how good you look *

* In a word, you were sex *

* My attitude you took *

* My body was next *

* You made love to me *

* Oh, like you were afraid of *

* Are you afraid of me? *

* Was I the first? *

* Oh, was I
your every fantasy? *

* That's why,
until the end of time *

* I'll be there for you *

[ Vocalizing ]

* I truly adore you *

* Ooh *

* Beauty I'll still see *

* Oh, still to define *

* Just what you mean to me *

* Oooooh *

* I know that you know *

* Without you there is no me *

* Ahhhhhh *

* Without you, there's no sea *

* There's no shore *

[ Vocalizing ]

**

* Till you're with me *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Whoo!

[ Cheers and applause continue ]

Daly: That is Austyns Stancil,
ladies and gentlemen.

Whoo-hoo-hoo!
Mythroat hurts after that.

Ah. Gwen.

You are so talented. Wow!

I mean, nobody can do that.
Thank you.

Since we worked together,
just your body language,

the way you work the stage,
the way you looked at everybody,

like, I've seen it grow.

I am jealous,
but I am proud of you.

For real.
Thank you so much, Gwen.

It's an exciting day, Austyns.

I'm taking this time
to push my steal button!

[ Laughter ]

There is no steal button,
is there?

I love you, man. You, like,
were singing in that falsetto,

and you were k--

I don't even know
where you came from.

I've been with Warner Records
for 20 years,

and one of the proudest things

that I used to tell people

was that I was
on the same label as Prince.

That was awesome, man.

Thank you so much,
brother.

Alright, coaches,
thank you.

Austyns, there's the coach
that matters.

Snoop.
Very proud of you, nephew.

You gonna make
the family proud by,

you know,
the way you perform that record.

When we hear your voice,
we know it's only your voice.

Feel like you can make records.

'Cause that's what
it's all about --

trying to have a real career.

So thank you for putting on
a hell of a show tonight.

Yay!

I appreciate you, unc.

Snoop: Austyns -- the spirit
of Prince was in him.

His look, his sound,
his delivery.

I was thoroughly impressed.
He made me proud.

That's what you do.

You bring your best,
especially in the playoffs.

I can't believe I let him go.

What an idiot.

Snoop: Aliyah --
she's got beauty

and she has a strong set of
vocals that match her look.

Christina Eagle --
she has showmanship.

And Austyns -- women love when
a man can sing them high notes.

I'm looking forward to
the next couple of acts,

but the least thing
I'm excited for

is the decision
that I have to make.

How can you sing in that part
of your voice that loud?

And long.
And that long.

I know.
Am I crazy?

He wasn't using his falsetto
like that before.

No, he never did.
It's the song choice.

That's like dating somebody
for a year

and you go to Mexico
on a holiday,

and all of a sudden
they start speaking Spanish.

That just came
out of nowhere.

It's so good.
Man!

**

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

So, Lauren-Michael
was a four-chair turn.

Okay.

Out of all
the contestants I have,

the rocker
and the blues sound

and the crooner and country,
and she's the heart one.

Cannot wait.

Alright,
let's bring her out.
Come on.

Come in, ma'am.
Oh, my gosh, that hat!

Oh, my God, yourhat!

Having Lainey Wilson
beside Reba was like, hello?

She's literally one of my goals.

I look up to her and Reba
immensely.

So, tell Lainey a little bit
about yourself.

I'm singing "I Am Not Okay"
by Jelly Roll.

Oh, love me some Jelly.

I come from kind of
a hard background like him,

and I myself struggle
with mental health issues.

So for me, this song
just means the world.

* I am not okay *

* I'm barely getting by *

Being raised in and out of,
like, a broken home,

that's why I've been
just so hungry for music,

'cause it's the only place
I've ever felt safe.

* I can't be the only one *

This journey has been
quite healing in real time.

It's like therapy.

For the first time in my life,

I am seeing the things
that I've wished for

and prayed for
come true.

* I'm not okay *

* But it's all gonna be
alright *

Oh, my gosh!
I'm about to hug you.

Please do. Please do.
Oh, my gosh, girl!

Thank you!

You are gonna be okay,
I'll tell you that.

Thank you. Thank you.
Oh, my gosh,
you gon' have me...

Wasn't that good?
I might have to borrow
your Kleenex, Reba.

That got me.
Wow!

Right there.
Thank you.

Oh, Lord,
I felt the Holy Spirit.

That high note, I was like,

I don't know
if I'm gonna reach that one.

When I know a high note's
coming up,

I touch my forefinger.

It's just confidence.
Wow.

It's like, yeah,
it's gonna be right there.

I'm gonna be up there
doing this.

I'll be like,
"Reba told me!"
"Is she meditating?"

When you come in on the
"we're all gonna be alright,"

smile during that part.

When you, like,
remind yourself

like it's really going to be
okay.

Yes, ma'am.

* I woke up today *

I definitely think that
Lauren-Michael will make me cry

with her singing this song.

She can, like, soften up
when she needs to

and get big
when she needs to.

She's very dynamic.
Her story --

you can feel it just
like oozing out of her body.

If she does that...
Mm-hmm.

It'll be tough
to beat her.

You get up there and
you sing your butt off.

Yes, ma'am.
That's what
you can do.

You're so good at it.

I'm proud of her.
I am too.

She's gonna help a lot
of people singing that song.

She is.
Just like Jelly does.

You're the voice
of "The Voice."
Thank you.

I love you.
Love you.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Singing "I Am Not Okay,"
here is Lauren-Michael Sellers.

**

* I am not okay *

* I'm barely getting by *

* I'm losing track of days *

* And losing sleep at night *

* I am not okay *

* I'm hanging on the rails *

* So if I say I'm fine *

* Just know I learned
to hide it well *

* I know I can't be
the only one *

* Who's holding on
for dear life *

* But God knows I know *

* When it's all said and done *

* I'm not okay *

* But it's all gonna be
alright *

* It's not okay *

* But we're all gonna be
alright *

* I woke up today *

* I almost stayed in bed *

* Had the devil on my back *

* And all these voices
in my head *

* Some days it ain't all bad *

* Some days it all gets worse *

* Some days I swear
I'm better off *

* Layin' in the dirt *

* Gonna be alright *

* Gonna be alright *

* I know one day *

* We'll see the other side *

* The pain'll wash away *

* In a holy water tide *

* But we're all gonna be
alright *

* And I know I can't be
the only one, no *

* Who's holding on
for dear life *

* God knows I know *

* When it's all said and done *

* I'm not okay *

* But it's all gonna be
alright *

* It's not okay *

* But we're all gonna be
alright *

* I'm not okay *

* But it's all gonna be
alright *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Daly: That is Lauren-Michael
Sellers, ladies and gentlemen.

Wow, Reba,
you got a good one here.

Let's get some coaches' thoughts
on that.

We'll start with Big Snoop.

Lauren-Michael, you sound
amazing. You just keep growing.

You stepped from that mic stand,
you looked at Reba,

and you told her,
"You better pick me."

You've become a real superstar.

Thank you, Snoop.
Thank you so much.

Lauren-Michael, you look
beautiful tonight.

Thank you!
I'm telling you,
the dress, the hair.

Thank you.
Your nuances in your voice...

I feel like
you wrote this song

and you're telling your story.

Incredible job.
Thank you.

Thanks, Gwen.

And now your coach,
Reba.

You did so, so good.
I'm proud of you.

You have chosen songs
that touch my heart

because you can deliver
a message so well.

Not only
with your beautiful voice,

but with your eyes,
your expressions.

And these songs help
you tell the story

that I think God put you
on this Earth to tell.

Thank you so much,
Queen Reba.
You're a treasure.

How about another big hand
for Lauren-Michael Sellers!

Reba: Lauren-Michael is one that
I could see in the live show.

She's just that good.

She's always consistent

and she gives her heart and soul
to the song.

I was very proud of her.

I'm already tearing up.
Great job.

The live shows are coming up,
and the two people

that I choose need to be ready,
strong and deliver.

It's going to be a really,
really, really tough decision.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the playoffs.

So, Simone, what is
the importance

of having
great coaching?

When you have
a great coach,

communication
is everything.
Right.

They kind of shape you
into who you are.

I would literally be
nothing without them.

So, on that note
of coaching,

my next singer, Mikaela...
Yes.

17-year-old from Georgia.

She's got a beautiful voice.
Mm-hmm.

She's the future,
if you ask me.

Mikaela: Thank you.

-Oh, my God. Hi!
-Hi!

It's so cool
that Snoop brought Simone,

which isn't
the typical singing mentor,

but Simone knows better
than anyone

how to have the right mindset
before competing.

He did not choose
an easy song for you.

No way.

Mikaela will be singing
"Love" by Keyshia Cole

'cause it has a big
vocal arrangement in it,

and I wanted her to be
comfortable

and confident in the song
that she's singing.

It's one of my mom's
and I's favorite songs,

so yeah, I'm singing it for her.

* I used to think
that I wasn't fine enough *

When my mom was pregnant
with me,

she would always listen to
R&B songs that she loved,

and this was one of them.

I guess that's
why she had me, a singer.

* Why you playing games,
what's this all about? *

My mom, she's
my best friend.

I love her so much.
We do everything together.

We're always, like,
making, like,

TikTok videos,
hanging out all the time.

She's always supporting me.

I'm so happy I can sing one
of my mom's

favorite songs
on "The Voice."

* Ohhhh *

You better work, girl.
[ Laughter ]

Mm!
Loved it.

But I know
you want to let it go.

You're, like, holding back,
and I can hear.

You're just almost there.
Don't be timid.

Relax more.
Just like, sing it like
Jennifer Hudson.

And when you got
to the end...

You started
letting it go.

You didn't do
the Keyshia Cole.

You did your own * Mmm *
Yeah.

Which was doper.

Start off like that.
Okay.

Before a meet,
whenever I get nervous,

I'll do some visualizations,
some breathing exercises.

And if it helps you, just think
about singing it with your mom.

Yes!

* Never knew
what I was missing *

Oh, my God.

Mikaela just needs to be
herself, having fun,

embracing the experience, 'cause
this is just the beginning.

She's going up
against some heavy hitters

and she's the baby
of the bunch.

But babies win.

As proven
when she was a baby.

* Oooooh *
Oh, yes.
Oh, yes. Oh, yes.

Stunning. Beautiful.

This is my Black girl magic
right here.

I just love me
some Mikaela.

Thank you so much.

Let's go, Mikaela!

[ Cheers and applause ]

You look beautiful.

[ Cheers and applause continue ]

With "Love,"
here is Mikaela Ayira.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* Ohhhh *

* I used to think
that I wasn't fine enough *

* And I used to think that
I wasn't wild enough *

* But I won't waste my time
trying to figure out *

* Why you playing games,
what's this all about *

* And I can't believe
you're hurting me *

* I met your girl,
what a difference *

* What you see in her
you ain't seen in me *

* I guess it was all
just make-believe *

* Oh, love *

* Never knew
what I was missin' *

* But I knew
once we start kissin' *

* I found *
Whoo!

Aha!

* Love *

* Never knew
what I was missin' *

* But I knew
once we start kissin' *

* I found *

* Now you're gone,
what am I gonna do? *

* So empty my heart,
my soul can't go on *

* Go on, baby, without you, oh *

* Rainy days fade away
when you come around *

* Say you're here
to stay with me, boy *

* I don't want you to leave me *

* Yeah, I need you *

Get it, girl!

[ Vocalizing ]

* Ooooh *

* Love *

* I never knew
what I was missin' *

* But I knew
once we start kissin' *

* I found love *

* I found love *

* Ohhhhh *

Pretty, pretty, pretty!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Yes, mama!

We'll get some thoughts
from our coaches.

We'll start with Reba.

Mikaela, that was gorgeous.

Man, you have got
some kind of range.

Thank you so much.

Way to go, Snoop.
Wow.

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

You've got so many
talented people on your team.

Gwen: Wow.
Snoop helped you find your lane.

That song is so hard.

Yeah.
And at 17 years old,

you did it
with so much feeling.

You really shine tonight.

Thank you so much.

Michael: I love this show.

To get to sit here
and be a fan of yours

and to watch your growth,

it's amazing.

You were perfect.
Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Well, I'm a proud uncle
right now.

Let me say that.

The advice that Simone gave you
to, you know, not hold back,

really use all of your voice --

you did that,
and you did it well.

And you need to be making
real records.

I love you so much.
You did a great job.

I love you, too.
Thank you.

How about another big hand
for Mikaela Ayira, everybody!

Mikaela -- she has grown

into the artist
that I want her to be.

Confident, strong
and very coachable.

To make it to the live shows,

I'm looking for a little bit
of room to grow

so I can give you
that last candle

to put on top of your cake

before you go out
and win this thing.

I think Mikaela
and her performance was amazing.

Listen, Mikaela is
a pop star in the making.

It's gonna happen.

Oh, man. Old Uncle Snoop
finna cry again.

I'm really sorry, Uncle Snoop,

but you got
a tough decision tonight.

I love that.
She's flowing with her heart.

Go, girl!

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to "The Voice."

So, Danny is our next
person up to sing for us.

Love it.
And he is my rocker.
He's so good.

During the knockout,
I wanted to save Danny.

Daly: Whoa!
Not wasting any time.

Danny came out
on the blind auditions,

just blew
everybody away.

Danny: Thank you.
And I was so shocked
you picked me.

I had you in mind
even before.
Did you?

Back when I was a kid,

my dad used to listen to
a country radio station.

And then,
you know, I'm like,

"If I get on the show and I get
through, I'm picking Reba."

That's it. That's it.
Aww, thank you!

Yeah.
Alright, well...

Show us what you got.

I'm singing "I Heard It Through
the Grapevine" by Marvin Gaye.

* Not much longer
would you be mine *

My dad was my biggest encourager
from day one.

He introduced me
to Marvin Gaye.

And when I was
seven years old,

he bought me my first guitar
for Christmas.

It's very fortunate
to grow up in a family

that encouraged not only music,

but encouraged my dreams.

I want to make
the live shows really bad,

as a guy who's been pursuing
this for 30 years

and overcome a lot
of challenges.

I used to busk
on the London Underground

and played hundreds of shows
in Dallas.

And I've been grinding
and grinding and grinding

and I really hope that can
come through in my performance.

Also, I believe the competition
needs a guy with a guitar.

It needs someone
from the bars of Dallas.

You know, go out there
and just rock it out.

Come on!
Yeah!

Danny is different than
anybody I've got on my team.

He can wail,
plays guitar.

He gives everything.

Thank you so much.

Thank you. Thank you.
Oh, my gosh, man!

So, Danny, I think it
would be good if you didn't go

"whyyy" at the very first.

-Don't start? Save it?
-Yes.

Yeah, save it
and let it build.

A little bit more, like,
dimension would be nice.

Right. Right.
Mm-hmm.

And I think when
you're hitting that guitar solo,

step out in the middle.

Make a moment out of that.
Will do.

You are so incredible.
It's good.

Every round, I feel
like I'm going home,

so I just tell myself I'm
gonna just give it everything.

And you do.

You can tell
that you absolutely love it.

Thank you.
Thank you so much.

Danny is authentic.

I think there's
so many different spaces

in the music business
that he could fit in.

I can see him taking
this thing to the end.

Every time he performs,

all the coaches
are just pulling for him.

Thank you guys.
You can tell you've played
a million shows.

Oh, so many.

You can tell that he's seasoned
and deserves to be here.

I agree 100%.

[ Cheers and applause ]

With "I Heard It Through
the Grapevine,"

here is Danny Joseph.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

Oh, yeah, baby.
Mm, mm!

* Ooh, well, I bet you're
wondering how I knew *

* About your plan
to make me blue *

* With some other guy
you knew before *

* Between the two of us guys,
I know you love me more *

* It took me by surprise,
boy, I must say *

* When I found out yesterday *

* Don't you know that I heard it
through the grapevine? *

* Not much longer
would you be mine *

* Oh, well, I heard it
through the grapevine *

* And I'm just about to
lose my mind *

* Honey, honey, yeah *

* Heard it through
the grapevine *

* Not much longer
would you be my baby *

* Yeah *

* People say that a man
ain't supposed to cry *

Hey!

* But these tears
I can't hold inside *

* Losing you would
change my life, you see *

* But you mean that much to me *

* You could've told me
by yourself *

* That other guy
you knew before *

* Oh, well, I heard it
through the grapevine *

* Not much longer
would you be mine *

* Whoa *

* Well, I heard it
through the grapevine *

* And I'm just about
to lose my mind *

* Honey, honey, yeah *

* Heard it through
the grapevine *

* Not much longer
would you be my baby *

* Yeah *

**

Yeah, dude!

**

Whoo!

**

**

* Oh, well, I heard it
through the grapevine *

* Not much longer
would you be mine *

* Whoa, well, I heard it
through the grapevine *

* And I'm just about
to lose my mind *

* Honey, honey, yeah *

* Whoa *

* Yeah, yeah, yeah *

* Whoa, yeah *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Daly: That is Danny Joseph,
everybody!

[ Cheers and applause continue ]

Oh, my God.

Let's get some thoughts
from our coaches.

Gwen, let's start
with you.

I love how much,
like, spirit you have

and how intense you are.

And the bend-down -- like, that
was, like, really good.

Thank you.
I ripped my pants.

You did?!
But it's worth it.

That's punk rock, bro.
Rock and roll.

I'm a super fan.
Snoop.

Danny, you flipped
that Motown Marvin Gaye record

and gave it some edge and took
it to a whole nother galaxy,

and it felt good.

I told Reba that you were one
of my favorites.

Hopefully she will give you
the chance to move forward

'cause you deserve it.

Thank you so much.
Thank you.

Michael.
That was amazing, man.

You turned it into
a little bit of Springsteen,

and then you went
into a Jack Black,

face-melting guitar solo.

I'm jealous of your mustache,
as usual,

but you've earned your place.

Thanks, man.

Alright, Danny, let's check in
with your coach, Reba.

You never disappoint.

Your talent is totally different
from anybody else on the show.

I was very proud of you tonight.

Thank you so much.

How about a big hand
for Danny Joseph, everybody?

[ Cheers and applause ]

Reba: Danny
brought down the house.

He has such a stage presence
and he's so much fun to watch.

You never know what
he's going to do next.

And I think that's
what the audience loves.

I'll just say goodbye
real quick.

Gwen: I feel like
Danny should go to lives.

He is such a great performer,

and I think that's
what the lives is all about.

Someone that can do it all.

He always gives it
like 100,000,000%.

I think Reba is gonna have
a tough choice

because she can only take two.

I've got a lot
to think about, don't I?

Wow.
Five great performers.

I've got hard decisions
to make coming up.

Please pray for me
and wish me luck.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to night two of the playoffs.

Snoop: Okay, Simone.

So, we're about
to get into my next artist.

His name is Jeremy, and
he's such a phenomenal singer.

I actually stole him
from another team.

Daly: Hold everything!

So, Jeremy, give Simone
a little background

on what
you're singing today.

I'm singing
"The Impossible Dream."

Mm-hmm.
Josh Groban's rendition.

This month is
the anniversary of

both my brothers
passing from addiction.
Oh, I'm sorry. Yeah.

In these lyrics, it's like
to fight the unbeatable foe.

In my life,
I've been escaping this thing

that's been trying
to pull me in.

This is just like
a monumental moment

for me to be able to, like,
stand here and sing this song.

* This is my quest *

* To follow that star *

"The Impossible Dream" is
a song that's about a dream

that feels impossible
to capture.

My brothers,

they didn't really have
the opportunity

to chase their dreams.

That's why I have to make it
to the lives.

* The unreachable star *

I cannot go home yet, because
I'm representing us all.

Wow.
Absolutely amazing.

In the beginning,
you're a little bit quieter,

so I wish
I could hear that.

And more, like, enunciation
in the beginning

so we can understand
every word.

Totally.
Every word clearly.

What are some ways that
you, like, handle adversity?

Part of that healing process
is to ask somebody for help,

which is the most
powerful thing,

and then you start
to realize

how blessed you are
to be able to do what you do.

And not many people
can sing like you.

You look at Simone Biles' life

and all the adversity she's been
through, and she's overcome it.

Snoop Dogg brought in a mentor
not to only help us

about singing, but like,
to really teach us about life.

Music heals.

It's the thing that brings
everybody together.

When you singing
in the memory of your family --

I say this to everybody
that lost someone --

think about the moments you had
with them while you're singing.

Yeah, and they'd be
so proud.

Hello! Take that spirit
with this song.

Thank you so much.
Give it to me.

Come on,
give it to me.

* The unreachable star *

I felt like this record reminds
me of someone being onstage

at a Broadway play,

and Jeremy has
a big voice,

and I think this song
gives him the ability

to show all
of his vocal abilities.

For him to be able to share that
story and sing through that pain

and show everybody
why he does it

and he's going to be the one
to make it, is truly special.

[ Holding note ]
Yes, yes.

Thank you so much
for suggesting this.

It's a beautiful
record, man.

We just was trying to find
the right record for you.

And when you do it
like you do it,

that's the reason
why it was made.

Thank you, Snoop.

'Cause you're the one
that's gonna make it.

Somebody got to be
the one.

Why not you?

Amen.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Shut it down, Jeremy.

With "The Impossible Dream
(The Quest),"

here is Jeremy Beloate.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* To dream
the impossible dream *

* To fight
the unbeatable foe *

* To bear
with unbearable sorrow *

* And to run
where the brave dare not go *

* This is my quest *

* To follow that star *

* No matter how hopeless *

* No matter how far *

* To fight for the right *

* Without question or pause *

* To be willing to march,
march into hell *

* For that heavenly cause *

* And I know *

* If I'll only be true *
Yes!

* To this glorious quest *

* That my heart will lie
peaceful and calm *

* When I'm laid to my rest *

* And the world will be
better for this *

* That one man,
scorned and covered with scars *

* Still strove with his last
ounce of courage *

* To reach the unreachable *

* The unreachable *

* The unreachable star *

* And I'll always dream
the impossible dream *

* Yes, and I'll reach *

* The unreachable *

* Star *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Daly: Give it up
for Jeremy Beloate

on the playoffs
on "The Voice"!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Wow!
Michael,
your former coach.

The fact that you
could sing a song like that

and make it yours...

You are a bad--
Damn, Snoop!

Dude, that is one of
my favorite performances so far.

Great. Man!
Thank you so much.

Gwen, what'd you think?

Carson, like,
I loved this combo. I did.

But this weirdo combo --
[ Laughter ]

It's working.
It's so beautiful.

You're such an amazing singer,
so congratulations!

You're the best.
Thank you so much.

Reba, you alright?

[ Voice breaking ]
I haven't been that touched

listening to anybody sing
until you.
Aww!

You have got a voice
that penetrated my heart.

Wow.
It really got me.

I can see you on Broadway.

Mm-hmm.
I'm gonna come see you.
when you're there.

You're so good.

Thank you so much.
So good.

Snoop, you look
like a proud coach.

I am, man. I'm over here
shedding tears of joy, man.

You made me feel like I was
sitting at a real Broadway play.

I'm crying and I don't care

because my seat next to me,
she's crying.

So I guess it's okay to cry.

There's something
about the way you make me feel.

Jeremy, you are a blessing
in disguise.

I'm so thankful
to have you on my team.

And I'm thankful
to be able to hear you sing.

Thank you, brother.
Thank you so much.

How about another big hand
for Jeremy Beloate!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Jeremy...
Man, what can I say?

This is a superstar.

This is a guy that has
everything in his toolbox,

with a backup toolbox.

And vocally, I feel like
he's strong enough

to win "The Voice."

There's not many men that
can make me cry when they sing.

I'm so proud of my team

for making this decision
so hard on me.

Okay.
I'm praying for you.

You know what it is.

I'm gonna cry.
I already know.

This is probably gonna be one
of the toughest decisions

I have to make, not just on TV,
but in life,

because I fell in love
with these artists

and we've become a family.

Gwen: It's so hard.

I can just tell from y'all
that I'mma cry.

I almost cried just
watching y'all.

This is the tough part.

Oh, my God.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Now it's time
to find out who will move on

to the live semifinals.

Please welcome Team Reba.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Katie, Adam, Edward,
Lauren-Michael, and Danny.

Only two can represent Reba
in the Top 8 live show.

This is a near-impossible
decision, Reba.

How are you feeling?

Thank y'all very much
for giving your all.

Every step that you took
was upward,

and you did a great job
of listening, learning.

I'm a very proud mama right now.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Okay, Reba, who is the first
artist moving on to the Top 8?

Whew!

[ Dramatic music plays ]

The first artist moving on...

**

Adam.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Ohh!

Adam!
Congratulations!

Adam's voice stands out
because it's powerful.

He's got great range. He's got
that gravel in his voice.

He's my dirty soul singer.

Thank you so much.
Oh, my God!

Tonight, he was great
with his eye contact.

He stayed in the moment.
He was having a fun time.

And that makes everybody
watching have a fun time.

Thank you.

Because he's been
so consistent,

I had to have him continue
on the show.

Daly: Reba, who is your last
artist moving on?

[ Dramatic music plays ]

Wow. Y'all are all so good.

The next artist
that will be moving on...

...is Danny.

Danny!
Congratulations!

You're also
in the Top 8!

Danny reminds me
of a '70s rock and roll guy.

He's not like anything else
on the show.

Thank you so much.

I think America loves him
as much as I do.

So he's going to be
terrific to watch

and listen to on the lives.

-Oh, my God!
-Can I get in there?

Absolutely. Oh, my God.
I don't believe this.

Reba just made her decision.
It's up to me now.

Let's bring out
Team Snoop.

I really don't want to send
nobody home.

But for the ones
that stay with me,

it's time for them
to handle this show business.

Snoop,
just quickly.

How are you feeling?
I know this is a tough moment.

I feel good because they all
did an exceptional job.

Thank you for doing your best

and being on your best
at all times.

Whatever happens, I would love
to see you making real records,

'cause that's how much
I believe in all five of y'all.

Thank you, Coach.
And now the time has come.

Snoop, who is the first
artist moving on?

[ Dramatic music plays ]

The first artist moving on...

**

Jeremy.

Jeremy Beloate!
Congratulations!

You're advanced
to the semifinals

for Team Snoop.

Jeremy's going to be
great in the live shows

'cause he's a natural-born
live performer.

[ Laughter ]

He knows
how to control his voice

and his movements onstage.

And he proved it
with his performance tonight.

I have a pin for you.

For my brothers.
Stick me.

He's at the pinnacle.

He was the most
incredible singer

that sung on this "Voice" stage
for Season 26.

Yes!

Daly: Snoop, you've got
four incredible artists left.

Unfortunately,
only one will move on.

Who is your last artist
moving on?

The one that
I'm going to select is the one

that I feel has the most room
to grow,

as far as what I'm looking for
to end the show with.

The last choice will be...

...Christina Eagle.

Christina Eagle!
Congratulations!

You're moving on to
the semifinals for Team Snoop.

Christina is great
for live shows

because she is a fiery female
that can sing

good old-fashioned
country music.

Oh, I got you.
I got you.

Christina Eagle had
one chair turn.

She had one wing when I met her.

Then she got a second wing.

And now, as you can see,
the eagle has landed.

Going to lives
is a dream come true.

I am beyond grateful
right now.

So grateful.

America, get ready to vote.

Team Snoop, Christina Eagle
and my main man Jeremy --

they 'bout to bring the heat
for your seat.

Six of the Top 8 are locked.

Tomorrow, Team Bublé
takes the stage

and Michael picks
the last two semifinalists.

Michael: Watching these
performances and other teams,

it makes me really nervous
because my team has got a lot

to live up to tomorrow night.

But you know what they say --

Save the best for last.
