Let’s get into the performances.
Both Blake and Kelly turn their chairs.
He loves her stage presence, too.
And you thought Blake and Adam’s in-fighting was bad.
Anyway, Lana does one for her dad and joinsTeam Blake.
Samuel Harness / 26 / Fort Wayne, Ind.
John, Blake, and Ariana all turn their chairs.
John is jealous that someone with such a rasp has so much range.
And then Blake and Kelly fight some more about country music.
Sure, why not?
Samuel decides to joinTeam Legend.
He has a very distinct tone and real range.
By the time he goes into his falsetto, both John and Ariana have turned their chairs around.
She’s close but not ready just yet.
Joshua sings the hell out of it.
It’s a smart pick to stand out in auditions.
Hailey Green / 15 / St. Martin, Miss.
So, Hailey has spent the past year honing her skills and figuring out her style.
She certainly seems much more confident on stage, and this song really fits her voice.
Blake waits until the very end and makes sure no one else is turning before he presses his button.
Ariana didn’t turn but loved Hailey’s “growl” and “full, rich belt.”
Hailey’s happy to be onTeam Blake.
They also sound pretty great.
Like our other group, Jim and Sasha have a very ’70s folksy vibe going for them.
She wants a little more range and would love to push them vocally.
Jim and Sasha Allen joinTeam Ariana.
you might tell he just loves performing, and it spills through in his vocals.
John and Ariana both turn and are up on their feet in no time.
Ariana loves Paris’s personality and thought the performance felt “effortless.”
John is also pumped about Paris.
It was “beyond excellent,” he says.
Perhaps that’s why Paris decides to joinTeam Legend.
Camryn seems very nice, and she really handles the rejection of zero chair turns unbelievably well.
Camryn vows to work on it and return in the future.
It’s no surprise Gymani earns a four-chair turn.
Ariana tells her that this song is hers now.
“I just left my body emotionally,” she says.
“Your voice is why this show exists,” Kelly tells her.
John compares her to Jill Scott and says the performance was “executed with such flawlessness.”
Surprising all the judges, Gymani decides to go withTeam Kelly.
That’s a tough loss for Ariana, but this seems like it could be a great coach/artist pairing.
