The Voice is down to the top five vocalists. Team Adam has the most contestants in the competition with Tessanne Chin, James Wolpert and Will Champlin. Jacquie Lee is representing Team Christina and Cole Vosbury is the last remaining artist on team Blake. The top five are competing for a place in the finale, which will only feature three vocalists.
The show kicked off with all five artists coming together to perform, “Best Day of my Life” by American Authors.
James Wolpert, representing Team Adam, took the stage to perform a U2 classic, “With or Without You.” Levine started off the comments by saying that he didn’t care about the competition but that performance was beyond anything that he had thought Wolpert was capable of. Aguilera said that Wolpert did a great job and she had even recommended that for a coach performance. Shelton added that his performance tonight was really strong.
Following Wolpert was Will Champlin who put his own spin on Fun’s “Carry On.” Levine said that he saw Champlin smile for one of the first times in this competition and that it was great to see Champlin enjoying his moment on stage. Green added that it was great to see Champlin ‘swag’ up on stage. Shelton said that he was very wrapped up in the performances and that he really let his heart open up on stage.
Jacquie Lee from Team Christina took to the Voice stage to perform, “Angel” by Sarah McLachlan. Aguilera was left speechless after the performance, when she came back from being impressed by Lee; she said that she really did a non-boastful and sincere way. Coach Green added that the performance was perfect and she did a great job.
Tessanne Chin, the only female on Team Adam, took to the stage to close the show. Chin put her own spin on “Bridge Over Trouble Water.” Levine could hardly deliver his comments over the roar from the studio audience. Levine said that the sheer talent was shown in this performance and that version of the song was the most flawless and perfect performance on the show to date. Shelton added that the song was beautiful and he is a fan of Chin.
