"The Voice" - The Battles Continue - Oct. 23, 2012
It's the final night of the battles.
First up is Team Xtina with Adriana Louise vs Jordan Pruitt. They sing "Hot n Cold" by Katy Perry. Christina tells Adriana to be a little more aggressive. Adriana is a little nervous that Jordan has more experience. Billie Joe praises both their voices. At the battle they both start fairly strong with Jordan having a little more edge. It's pretty evenly matched with maybe Adriana hitting a couple of little clunkers but also hitting some great high notes. Christina chooses Adriana.
Next up is Team Blakewith Kelly Crapa vs Michaela Paige. They sing "I Hate Myself For Loving You" by Joan Jett. Blake tells Michaela not to over sing. Michael Buble tells Kelly to sing out like Michaela. At the final rehearsal Kelly takes the notes and Blake is proud. He's very sweet with them since they're both teenagers. At the battle they both come out swinging. They're staging/presence isn't much as they just confront each other. But they hold their ground vocally. Blake chooses Michaela. Christina doesn't steal Kelly.
Next up is Team Cee Lo with Avery Wilson vs Chevonne. They sing "Titanium" by David Guetta and Sia. Cee Lo thinks it will be a battle between age and experience since Avery is 16 and Chevonne and 26. Rob Thomas thinks Chevonne kills it. Cee Lo wants them to bring the drama and contrast to the performance. He also wants Avery to be more consistent. At the battle he starts strong-- and has great tone-- she is also strong and flashier. They also sound good together. She's very active and dynamic and he's more laid back and the consistency Cee Lo wanted was there. Cee Lo chooses Avery. Christina steals Chevonne.
And the teams are complete.
