Shows Round of 8 Results
May 28
Eight singers have one
dream: to be known as "The Voice". Some gave it their
all and emerged as favorites. Some thought they could
get away with it all and fell flat. But it's all about
votes, and for two of them, they will not be enough.
Will Team Shakira and Team Usher survive the hour? Eight
become six, and Sheryl Crow takes the stage.... right
now.

As a reminder, every iTunes download also
counts as a vote. If your single is
on the iTunes top 10 by the end of the voting window, your votes will be
multiplied by 10. This could be the boost that some singers need. All of
the singers charted this week, so that's a lot of votes. No one made the
top 10 however.
We start with Team Blake dueting with
SHERYL CROW on her new single "Easy".
Let's take a moment for Oklahoma real
quick. Blake Shelton has been running around like a chicken with his
head cut off helping to put together "Healing the Heartland", a relief
special to air on NBC at 9p ET. Among others, Reba, Rascal Flatts,
Miranda Lambert, Luke Bryan, and Usher are slated to appear. Also,
Starbucks, the beverage of choice on "The Voice", is donating $250,000
to the effort. AND if you go to a participating Starbucks tomorrow, you
can make your own donation. Do that... and you'll get a free cup of
coffee. For more info, go to OK.gov/OKstrong.
Next up, Judith Hill & Michelle Chamuel
team up to perform "Sweet Nothing" by Calvin Harris featuring Florence
Welch. On the back of that is... the first elimination...
SAFE:
Michelle Chamuel (Usher) - #4EyesonthePrize
With that, Team Usher is locked into the
top 6.
Next up, Sasha Allen of Team Shakira gets
by with a little help from the Swon Brothers of Team Blake for "Don't
You Wanna Stay" by Jason Aldean featuring Kelly Clarkson. I know someone
wants to stay...
SAFE:
Danielle Bradbery (Blake)
As far as iTunes are concerned, Danielle
& Michelle are 1-2.
Hey, you've been good "Voice" fans, so
here's a sneak preview of next week's season premiere of "America's Got
Talent". Complete with Nick Cannon channeling his inner James Brown.
Next up, Danielle Bradbery and Sarah
Simmons team up on "A Thousand Years" by Christina Perri. You don't have
to wait that long to hear who's...
SAFE:
Sasha Allen (Shakira)
And Shakira... is shouting. Yeah, she's
got every right. Team Shakira is through! Of course, that means that one
of the veteran coaches is going to lose a member. Maybe both of them.
Next up, Reba & Linda Davis' "Does He
Love You" courtesy Team Adam's Amber Carrington and Team Blake's Holly
Tucker. Does America love either of them?
SAFE:
The Swon Brothers (Blake)
We're running out of time, so let's get
to who else is saved...
SAFE:
Amber Carrington (Adam)
Holly Tucker (Blake)
Team Blake is moving on. Team ADAM is
down to ONE, as Judith Hill, long seen as a favorite, takes a powder and
takes Sarah Simmons down with her.
So all four country singers remain... The
only males in the contest will sing again... and a singer has channeled
a fan following into a leading position. Ladies and gentlemen, this
competition is WIDE OPEN.
The top 6 sing for your votes next week.
Until then, remember to support local & independent music!
