[ Hydraulics whirring ]
Alright, here we go. Alright, bring it in.
Okay, okay. Alright, alright.
Let's bring it down. Bring it down a little bit.
Slowly, slowly. This is one of a kind.
I'm confused. How does this thing even work?
I've been on this show for nine seasons.
I've never seen anything like it.
Alright, that's good. I think that'll do it, Dan.
Alright. Thanks, Reba.
[ Horn honks ] You got it. Anything for Dan and Shay.
Reba, is there anything you can't do?
Oh, I like to stay busy.
Dan and Shay, I got a question.
You got one button between the two of you.
How's this going to work?
We agree on pretty much everything.
So, who sits where?
Both: I'm on the right.
[ Chuckles ] Okay, give us just a second, guys.
Hey, Dan, you told me I was on the right.
No, I said I was on the right.
You know that's my good side.
Both: Rock, paper, scissors.
Shoot!
You've got to be kidding me. I'm on the right. I'm on the right.
Okay, guys, I think we need to get out there
and get started.
Alright, hold on.
We need one more thing.
[ Horn honks ]
Alright, and...
...now we can go.
John: All of that for just one hat? It's my favorite hat.
Daly: Give it up for our season 25 coaches --
John Legend,
Chance the Rapper,
Reba McEntire -- Hey!
...and our first-ever coaching duo...
Hey, I'm Dan... And I'm Shay...
Together: And we're Dan + Shay.
Daly: ...Dan + Shay!
* Beer-drinkin' kids on a backroad *
* Good country songs on the radio *
John: I'm happy that Dan + Shay are here as our first duo coaches.
Dan is a great producer.
Shay is one of the best vocalists I've sung with.
They represent the way country has been lately,
dabbling in different styles,
collaborating with artists from other genres.
* ...10,000 hours *
I think Dan and Shay are going to be really good coaches,
but Team Legend's gonna win.
Dan: We're both such huge fans of "The Voice,"
and to be able to help somebody get to the next level
is something that we've always wanted to do,
and I'm honored to be sitting in this iconic red chair
and we got two of them.
The first-ever double chair.
Chance: The double chair is crazy.
I feel bad for whoever had to design this ridiculous thing
when they got the note from the architect
and they're like, "Oh, my God!"
It's perfect, man.
It's bigger than all the other ones.
People are talking about it. Come take a seat.
This is all you guys. Come here!
Just remember, we're the only ones with room for two here.
You could get two for the price of one. For the price of one.
They're in a group, and he arranged for groups.
But I have a "3" hat.
Reba had turned around, and I got really scared.
He was scared of me, too.
Yeah, not so much, but...
The button-push process...
Dan and I have come up with some secret signs
that we can't reveal at this time,
and -- well, you can't show them.
Sorry, man, I got distracted.
It's a thing. We'll work on that.
My first thought was block them.
Buckle up, Reba. We're coming for you.
Reba: Dan and Shay, they're the newbies.
We're going to be battling it out for the country acts.
I like this. Yeah, I bet you do.
I'm back, and I'm ready to win.
Here we go. Showtime, fellas.
Whoo, baby, let's go. Let's go.
Season 25.
Man: Our first artist is entering now.
First one. I'm excited.
Here we go. Get fired up.
Dani: It has been a long journey to get here to California.
Traveling 10-plus states, two tire blowouts,
A.C. went out, but we made it.
This is a huge moment for me.
I'm Dani Stacy, and this is my crib.
Here we have Miss Mira, our landlord.
This here is Ham. [ Cat meows ]
This is our living room, kitchen, bedroom.
This is our studio.
Let's see if the producer's in.
Oh! [ Cat meows ]
Mr. Binks, you got any beats cooking for us?
I'm currently traveling and playing music in our RV
with my boyfriend and our dog and our two cats.
JC's the driver, and...
Dani is a passenger princess.
Oh, man. Yeah, there you go.
That's going on national TV now.
I'm not saying that there's times
where she'll fall asleep for hours at a time,
and I'm driving.
I was trying to meditate. I told you.
You were meditating, and it really worked.
It worked. You were like [Imitates snoring]
* Going up the country, baby, don't you wanna go? *
Dani: It's amazing to see the different types of music
in each state.
I don't consider myself to be just one genre.
I like it all.
A coach could really help me discover who I am
even more as a singer.
All I need is one chair turn.
I just need one coach to believe in me.
But I'm hoping for five chair turns.
**
* At first I was afraid, I was petrified *
* Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side *
* But I spent oh so many nights thinking how you did me wrong *
* And I grew strong *
* And I learned how to get along *
* And so you're back from outer space *
* I just walked in to find you here *
* With that sad look upon your face *
* I should have changed that stupid lock *
* I should have made you leave your key *
* If I had known for just one second *
* You'd be back to bother me *
* Go on now, go *
* Walk out the door *
* Just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore *
* Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye? *
Hey! * Did you think I'd crumble? *
* Did you think I'd lay down and die? *
* Oh, no, not I *
* I will survive *
* Oh, as long as I know how to love *
* I know I'll stay alive *
* I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give *
* And I'll survive * Hey!
* I will survive *
* I w-i-i-i-i-ill survive *
Yeah!
* I will survive *
Oh, my God. Yeah!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Four chairs!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Yes! Wow!
So good!
Tell us your name, man. Tell us about yourself.
Can you give us a full concert, by the way?
I'm here for it.
Oh, my God, I'm so shocked.
I'm Dani Stacy, I'm 31 years old,
and I'm from Hanford, California,
but I'm based in Nashville, Tennessee.
That's what I'm talking about! Let's go!
[ Applause ]
You can't look it up.
Reba: Dani.
Do you see this?
I just noticed it right now.
Reba: Well, I noticed it when I turned around,
and I am so disappointed in my fellow coaches.
I know who did it, Reba.
You did it. Yeah.
No. Dani, I turned around --
It wasn't me. ...ready to talk so hard and fast.
So, I'm going to tell you anyway.
I think you're spectacular.
I can hear all kind of genres in your voice,
talent, range, tone, attitude.
I'm glad you're on "The Voice."
You're going to have to put up with these guys.
[ Laughter ]
I think she's referring to us.
But have fun. Welcome to "The Voice."
Thank you so much.
Did you grow up doing country?
I grew up listening to, like, Destiny's Child and, like --
Oh! Destiny's Child.
Oh, were you guys in Destiny's Child?
Yeah, I was for a while, I got kicked out.
But then also, like The Chicks.
You know, I love it all.
As you can see, with a four-chair turn,
like, you had an amazing performance.
You were poised, you were ready for it.
You were just so connected through the whole performance.
Thank you so much. From the jump,
I was hyped at the possibility of working with you.
Come get down with Team Chance because, like,
I would love to see all of your different influences.
Thank you so much. Hi, Dani.
Hi, John Legend.
I heard in your voice the crackle, the tone, the rasp.
It was just so interesting and cool,
and it felt like you were letting your tone, like,
do the talking for you.
People have soul that don't sing soul music all the time,
but you have soul.
That's, like, for sure.
How many compliments, can you give before it's like --
Say something nice about us. ...y'all are, like, bribing them a little bit.
I would love to have you on Team Legend,
and I'll shut up now.
They gonna be able to fit that in one episode?
That was absolutely brilliant. Thank you.
The thing that made us turn was, you know, the lower register.
Then I feel like your performance towards the end
kicked into a whole 'nother gear.
Hearing it break up up there with the power.
And I think you'd be incredible on Team Dan + Shay.
You know exactly who you are, and I can tell that.
You can hear all of the different influences.
Whenever we first started out,
I had a lot of R&B influence, as well.
Actually, my very first signing, I was signed to T-Pain.
I don't know if anybody knows this, but...
John: You were signed to T-Pain? Shay: I was signed to T-Pain.
I lived in Atlanta. You taught him how to do the trick, right?
* Shawty *
You're welcome. [ Laughter ]
But listen, I started out doing R&B.
You know, I've always written country.
We're, at the heart, songwriters.
We love the storytelling.
I feel like that's something we could bring to the table.
So, well done.
Thank you so much.
Dani, who do you choose as your coach?
Audience: John!
Dan + Shay! Don't listen to them.
Right?
I appreciate all of you guys so much
and respect all of you.
I'm gonna go with Chance.
Oh, my God!
I didn't see that coming!
I'm back to win it all. I'm so excited.
I got my first artist.
With her being an instrumentalist
and her interest around different genres,
I think we're going to have a lot of fun.
I got a gift for you.
I made a special "The Voice" hat for you.
We're working on who pushes the button.
We're trying to communicate
to see if we're on the same page.
Shay: And it's kind of a learning curve
to how this whole thing goes.
We might be new, but this isn't our first rodeo, man.
We are here to win. We're holding nothing back.
Nothing. Nothing back.
Absolutely nothing.
Aaaah!
I chose Chance because he sees the artist.
He's innovative, and he felt connected to my performance.
That's the biggest compliment that I can get.
John: Sometimes a block pays off.
He definitely blocked you. I blocked you.
You did? I just knew it was you.
It was me!
John: Because I knew it wasn't me.
[ Laughter ]
It was me. Sorry.
I had to use my block because Reba is just a real power.
She's a real problem.
When you get blocked, it's respect. Totally.
I'm going to take it like that, too.
I'm just glad y'all don't respect me.
[ Laughter ]
Don't block me, don't block me.
I've never worked with Chance.
He is a formidable opponent,
but it's my season to win.
I'm sorry. No, you're not.
He blocked me.
I can't believe you did that.
We're going to gang up on John.
Yes. Yes, it's John.
New strategy.
John, this is all your fault.
Yes, it is.
* This is "The Voice" *
Daly: Welcome back to the blind auditions.
Season 25, day one of auditions.
Anybody sing?
Uh, he said I got my chair turned.
I'm ready.
Good crowd today.
This is a fun, dynamic panel.
And plus, we've never had a duo.
* This is... * A little higher.
* This is "The Voice" * There you go.
Chance: Reba's amazing.
We got a, like, a cool, close thing going.
Alright, this is our new dance.
One, two three.
I've been learning a lot from her, for sure,
and she's been learning a little bit from me.
I taught her some dance moves.
That's my OG, you know what I mean?
Focus. We're here.
Alright.
Justin: Having a twin is like having a best friend
because you're literally the same person,
but then you have your own interests, as well.
Both: Hey, guys. My name is Justin. My name is Jeremy.
And we are from Millbrae, California.
Both: We are 17 years old, and we are twin brothers.
Just say twins. Okay, yeah.
We are twins.
* I remember being 17 *
I was born first. We're 21 minutes apart.
Our mom gave us color coordination.
I was the green twin, and Justin was the blue twin.
With my glasses on,
you literally cannot tell us apart.
And so, I take them off for that reason.
No. I mean, it is the blind audition, right?
[ Laughs ]
Growing up, Justin and I were really shy.
Music was definitely the thing that brought us
out of our shell.
My parents loved to record videos of us
dancing and singing.
Jordana: We just made sure to encourage them.
And sometimes chocolate is a treat.
[ Laughter ]
Justin: Giving us chocolate definitely made us
want to dance.
Jeremy: It definitely made me hyper, too.
Give us a chance, please!
Reba McEntire. Iconic. Iconic.
Just to work with any of the coaches would be such an honor.
Dan + Shay, the first-ever duo.
They're a duo. They're a duo, and you're a duo.
They know how to blend together really well.
For our blind audition, we'll be singing
"Story of My Life" by One Direction.
This song is really about looking back at the memories
that make you who you are.
We are first-generation Americans.
Our family actually moved here from the Philippines.
Music has surrounded us. It's basically in our culture.
Music really is the story of our lives.
Good, dude? Yep.
Cool.
You look good. I'll tell you that.
[ Laughter ]
Justin: This is a dream come true.
We're on "The Voice."
I'm just really proud that we can do it together.
**
* Written in these walls are *
* The stories that I can't explain *
Whoa!
Jeremy: * I leave my heart open *
* But it stays right here empty for days *
* She told me in the morning *
* She don't feel the same about us in her bones *
Got a group. A group!
* Ohhh *
* It seems to me that when I die *
* These words will be written on my stone *
[ Cheers and applause ]
* And I'll be gone, gone tonight *
* With nothing in between *
* The story of my life *
* I take her home *
* I drive all night to keep her warm *
* And time is frozen *
* Ohhh *
* The story of my life *
* I give her hope * * Give her hope *
* I spend her love * * Give her hope *
* Until she's broke inside *
* The story of my life *
Whoo!
* The story of my life *
[ Cheers and applause ]
Oh, my God!
Let's go! Come on. Wow, guys!
Whew! That was unbelievable!
Where are you from? What are your names?
Hi, my name is Justin. My name is Jeremy Garcia.
Together: And we are 17 years old from Millbrae, California.
Wow! Amazing.
Are you brothers? Twins, actually.
Okay, I thought that it looked kind of obvious.
You got the duo thing down.
Dan and I talk a lot at the same time sometimes.
Man, that was a fantastic performance. Thank you.
From the first time when I heard you guys harmonizing,
and I found out it was -- it was two people,
I was like, "We got to turn around.
That sounds amazing."
We got just the chair for you and everything.
We got just the chair for you.
They're built for this.
There's some clear reasons why you should choose us.
Because... We won't say much more about that.
We love you guys.
You'd be a great addition to Team Dan + Shay.
Phenomenal job, guys. Thank you so much.
Chance: You guys are super developed.
Have you guys been singing together for a long time?
Since the start of high school. Since high school?
You guys are in high school, though, right?
Yeah, we're seniors right now. Okay.
In the past, I worked with a group of sisters, actually,
that worked in harmonics.
When you guys first started, it was super, super tight.
There were some parts where one of you guys got pitchy,
and you guys regained control by the end of it.
I think as long as you guys are focused
on how you interact with each other,
you guys will have great performances
and keep having success like this.
Thank you so much.
I felt like it just could have been a little tighter.
And that's why I didn't turn.
But you're twin brothers
singing together in front of the whole country.
That's so exciting. I'm so excited for you.
Together: Thank you so much.
I turned around because I grew up in a singing family.
We were the Singing McEntires -- Pake, Susie, and myself.
It takes me back to my childhood.
I absolutely love your enthusiasm.
The way you look at each other when you're singing,
like, "We're really here, and this is so much fun."
I was really moved by it,
and I'd love to have you on Team Reba.
Reba, she pulled the family card,
so I got to say, we might not have been
as cool as the singing McEntires,
but we were the Singing Mooneys, and I had two sisters,
so we know all about the family harmony, okay?
Just in case that gave Reba a leg up.
Don't let her sweet talk you.
I get it. She's beautiful, and she's a legend, but --
I just had to throw that out there.
You all left your family groups, though, didn't you?
Well, we don't need to talk about that, man.
I-I never did.
I'm not involved. I'm not involved.
Get out of here, John.
Boys.
[ Laughter ]
I like this.
Yeah, I bet you do. Commands attention.
I think I'm going to break out into a Linda Ronstadt song here.
I do know about family harmony, blood harmony.
And I'd love to have y'all with me.
Thank you so much. Thank you.
"Blood Harmony" sounds like a good movie name.
It does. That's the name of our next album.
The next "Twilight" film, "Blood Harmony."
Okay, who do you pick as your coach?
[ Indistinct shouting ]
What do you think?
I think we'll go for...
**
* This is "The Voice" *
Daly: Welcome back.
Who do you pick as your coach?
I think we'll go for...
Dan + Shay.
Let's go, baby!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Let's go, baby. Come on!
Dan: We got our first artist ever. I'm feeling good.
You feeling good? Let's go! I feel fantastic.
You guys look stunned.
You alright, man? You did it, bro.
Dan: I love Justin and Jeremy. Those guys are awesome.
I love the tone of their voice. And I love the passion.
It's a surreal moment for us. This is really an honor.
Dan: You know, we've been a duo for over 10 years.
Lessons we've learned along the way on stage or in the studio,
I feel like we're going to be able to imprint
that on those guys.
He's going to make your jersey for you.
We got our team gift here. Ooh!
We made some jerseys.
Everybody's got their name on it.
I think that's pretty cool.
Does any of the other coaches --
do they have customization? No.
Something personal? No.
Heartfelt? Absolutely not.
Nobody has what we've got.
Team Dan + Shay. It's not even a choice.
Jeremy: Thanks.
Now you guys are official.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Y'all having fun out there so far?
Come on.
I wanted them so bad.
Reba busted out the cowbell. Wasted.
I thought a cowbell would be a great idea to do.
You know, I'm dealing with four men over here
that are talking and talking.
I have to use strategy.
If we can't get a duo,
I was going to be pretty bummed out. For sure.
My name is Tae Lewis.
I'm 31 and I'm from Goldsboro, North Carolina,
and currently I live in Nashville, Tennessee.
I got my start in New York.
You wouldn't think that country music is a big thing
in upstate New York, but it really is.
I was trying to play at this bar.
It was the biggest things because everybody was playing
at this bar and they said, "Are you doing R&B, pop?"
And I said, "No, I do country music."
And they were like, "I'm sorry.
We've never seen a Black country artist before.
So I don't know how this is going to kind of work out."
Being denied because of me being Black...
that was a hard time in my life right there.
Ooh.
But I couldn't give up on myself.
I started talking to a lot of the country artists
that were already playing, became friends with them,
sitting in on their band rehearsals,
posting videos until the director of Black Opry,
she reached out to me and she said,
"I want to know if you want to be a part of a team."
The Black Opry is the collective of Black country artists.
I've been able to go across America,
play in New York and Ohio, playing at the Troubadour,
got my music video on CMT, which is crazy to me.
Just amazing to be able to be around
other Black country artists like me.
For my blind audition, I will be singing
"Somebody Like You" by Keith Urban.
The song is basically about loving oneself
before you can love somebody else.
I definitely relate to this song
because I didn't love myself at one point.
I'm trying not to break down and cry, y'all.
For a long time, I felt like
I didn't have a certain place in country music
because of what I look like or where I came from.
A chair turn would be so validating for me.
Come on, let's go, let's go.
**
* There's a new wind blowing like I've never known *
* Breathing deeper than I've ever done *
* And it sure feels good to finally feel the way I do *
* I wanna love somebody, love somebody like you *
* I'm letting go of all my lonely yesterdays *
* I've forgiven myself for the mistakes I've made * Nice work.
* Now there's just one thing *
* The only thing I wanna do, yeah *
* I wanna love somebody, love somebody like you *
* Yeah, I wanna feel the sunshine *
* Shinin' down on me and you *
Come on, Reba!
* When you put your arms around me *
* Let me know there's nothing in this world I can't do *
Hey!
* I'm ready to love somebody, love somebody *
* Love somebody, love somebody, love somebody *
* Love somebody like you *
[ Cheers and applause ]
Congratulations.
You guys are idiots! Idiots! Come on!
We messed up.
Aah!
What is your name and where are you from?
Tae Lewis, I am 31 years old,
and I live in Nashville, Tennessee.
That's what I'm talking about. Let's go, baby.
I loved your performance.
Is this what your goal is, is to make country music?
Tae: Yes, sir. I am a country artist.
I've been doing this for about seven years now.
Fantastic. Been vibing it out.
I love your voice, man.
Those runs towards the end of the song, incredible.
That's a great song choice for you.
Thank you. You a big Keith Urban fan?
I'm actually a huge fan of you guys.
Let's go! It's okay.
Listen, Reba had turned around,
and I got really scared, to be honest with you.
He was scared of me, too. Yeah, not so much.
But you're a phenomenal talent.
You're clearly a seasoned veteran.
I loved your voice, man.
And this is a pretty clear winner
on who you should choose, in my opinion.
You got the queen of country music over there.
I don't want to stand in the way. Hey, hey, hey.
Can't be more obvious than this, I guess.
I wrote it down, John. That's how you know.
You wrote it down in block letters.
This is not a joke.
I actually had to look up what a capital Q --
which way the line went.
We're happy you're part of "The Voice," man.
Congratulations. Thank y'all.
I'm gonna go the opposite way, man.
She's looking at you, Chance.
I can feel it. My side of my face is hot.
[ Laughter ]
It could be really cool to see what directions
John takes your arrangements in.
He could kind of pull out a lot of soul.
And I think you guys collaborating
could just make for some fire performances on the show.
My face is so hot now.
[ Laughter ]
I think whoever you go with, you're gonna do great.
Quit back-pedaling now.
[ Laughter, applause ]
Tae, I want you to ignore these country coaches over here.
Your voice is so electric.
You just look like you belong on the stage,
singing the music that you're singing.
I took a country artist to the lives with me
because she didn't have to compete with, you know,
you know, the three, four, five, whatever country artists --
Ooh!
...that are going to be on Reba's team.
The lane is clear for you, my friend.
Thank you.
John's name is Legend. Yes, it is.
But according to Wikipedia and my mama, I am legend, too.
[ Cheering ]
That's a fact.
Let's get down to brass tacks here. Okay.
You know, I've been in the business a very long time.
Yes, ma'am. And I could help you,
whether it's vocal or it's your staging.
I would love to have you on my team.
We'd have a blast.
But what choice would get you on the "Today" show?
Oh, shoot.
Hoda and Jenna -- I'm great friends with Hoda.
...would be talking about you.
Jenna and I are just like this.
If you did something so renegade,
so unexpected as to reject the advances
of the queen of country music, they'd be talking about you --
John, I am ready to complete this.
Let's ask him which one he would like to go with.
Alright, Tae.
Oh, my gosh.
Come on!
This is so hard.
Look at this jacket. Look at this chicken.
[ Audience shouting ]
Audience: [ Chanting ] Reba! Reba! Reba!
I'm gonna go with Reba.
* Here's your one chance, Fancy, don't let me down *
Reba: I got my first artist, and I am so excited.
Oh, that was too much fun!
Tae was fun.
He put his own inflection in it,
got a little growl in there.
So, he's a great singer.
Hey, chicken tenders! Look at that.
Season 24, I gave the artists tater tots.
So, chicken tenders it is for season 25.
Look here. Come on, Tae.
Chicken tenders is my go-to meal after a concert.
Barbecue.
Reba brought chicken, presumably cooked chicken.
I don't think that this is FDA-approved or anything,
but, yeah, she's giving out food on set, NBC.
I am shocked.
The audacity!
Can you believe that Chance endorsed John over moi?
I feel bad for the guy, man.
He needs somebody on his team.
I'm back. I'm just saying, I'm back.
John Legend was getting on the queen's very last nerve.
Well done.
I used this in season 24, and it worked like a charm.
I put up a fight, Reba. I put up a fight.
You did, and I brought out all the ammunition I had.
[ Laughter ]
Well, maybe.
We'll get that hundred bucks from you later, Reba.
Thank you.
She's got, like, a scepter
and, like, a megaphone and, like, a whoopee cushion.
And those glasses that have a nose and a mustache on them.
Like, I don't know where she's getting these things.
What else do I have here?
As our coaches start building their teams,
start building yours.
Get the "Voice" official app now and play along.
* This is "The Voice" *
Daly: Welcome back the blind auditions
at Universal Studios Hollywood.
**
I got a feeling...
there's supposed to be more chicken tenders here.
John. Hey, Reba. What's up?
[ Chuckles ] Did you happen to see
anybody eating the chicken tenders I have
for all my contestants?
Mm, can't say that I have.
Uh-huh.
You got some barbecue sauce on you there.
Mm. And you're also wearing a bib
that says "Reba's Chicken Tenders."
I am not sure how this got here.
Really? Mm.
You know, I got to go. Uh-huh.
Can you guys turn your chairs for me?
My name is Ryan Argast, I'm 30 years old,
and I'm from Plainfield, Illinois.
I think I always wanted to be a front man.
When I got into fifth grade, I had multiple bands,
and we're just like, "Hey, let's just go make noise."
My current band, we're called Marina City.
We've been fortunate enough
to be able to have sold-out shows,
have music on the radio, do all these awesome things.
But being on "The Voice" is absolutely massive.
I'll be singing for the blind auditions
"Speechless" by Dan + Shay.
To me, the most important thing as a singer
is being a storyteller.
There's no one doing that better than Dan and Shay.
This song is about seeing your wife
for the first time at the wedding.
I got married back in 2020,
and this song encapsulates all those emotions
on our wedding day.
The stakes are high.
Singing a Dan + Shay song is a massive risk.
But I think any time that I sing a song,
I try to give my twist to it.
Good luck, guys. I'm gonna watch with you.
Dan and Shay are incredible musicians.
I may not be doing all the runs,
but I hope they hear the emotion,
believe the story.
Come on. Something special.
**
* You say you'll be down in five *
* The smell of your perfume is floating down the stairs *
* You're fixing up your hair like you do *
* I know that I'll be a mess *
* The second that I see you *
* You won't be surprised *
* It happens every time *
* It's nothing new *
* It's always on a night like tonight *
* I thank God you can read my mind *
* 'Cause when you look at me with those eyes *
* Oh, I'm speechless *
* Staring at you standing there in that dress *
* What it's doing to me ain't a secret * Come on, Chance.
* 'Cause watching you is all that I can do *
* Oh, I'm speechless *
* But you already know that you're my weakness *
I like him.
* After all this time I'm just as nervous *
* 'Cause loving you is all I can do *
* Oh, I'm speechless *
Come on! * I'm speechless *
Oh, my God!
* Speechless *
* You're making me speechless *
[ Cheers and applause ]
Yeah! Whoo!
Great song choice, first of all.
Great song choice! Risky song choice.
What is your name and where are you from, man?
My name is Ryan Argast. I'm from Plainfield, Illinois.
Might as well go big if you're going here, right?
[ Cheers and applause ]
John: I love the texture of your voice.
I love that it feels like it's breaking,
but it's strong at the same time.
Welcome to "The Voice."
Thanks, man. Appreciate it.
Chance: I could tell that Dan + Shay wanted to turn.
They just wanted to hear more of their own song
before they turned around.
He just didn't like the song choice.
No, I -- Chance has never heard that song.
He was like, "I don't like the song."
You're gonna have such a good time
with these two over here.
They're knowledgeable.
They are such great singer-songwriters.
So sorry I missed out on it,
but you're gonna have fun with them.
Thank you so much, Reba. Thank you.
That was unbelievable. You've got fantastic hair.
It kind of looks like Dan's before you cut it.
Yeah, like two weeks ago, I had that hair. It was nice.
Yours looks way better than mine looked, though.
Oh, stop, stop. I don't want to be up here competing with you.
That was risky, but it paid off, dude.
I was -- I knew exactly what I was listening for,
and you were the magic we were looking for, man.
The beginning of it was super true to form,
super sexy, super R&B.
And when that chorus hit, you made it your own.
Thank you. I'm gonna be thinking about that performance
every time we sing that song now.
We'll try to keep up with you. It was really, really great.
I feel like this calls for Dan + Shay going on stage
and at least singing a chorus of the song with you.
Oh, yeah! Let's do it.
Brother, come in here, man!
Ohh! Congratulations!
Oh, my goodness. You knew that I was, like, a huge baseball fan.
Massive baseball fan.
I knew that coming in. This is nuts.
* You say you'll be down in five *
* The smell of your perfume *
Yeah!
* Is floating down the stairs *
* You're fixing up your hair like you do *
* Yeah, hmm *
* It's always on a night like tonight *
Ow!
* I thank God you can read my mind *
Sing it, y'all!
* 'Cause when you look at me with those eyes *
* I'm *
* Speechless *
* Oh, I'm speechless that we got you *
* And nobody else did * * Oh, speechless, baby *
* No, no, no, no, no, no, no *
* Hey, Dan + Shay *
* You know it's Team Dan + Shay all day *
* Everybody, make some noise *
**
Wah!
Okay! Come on!
What a cool moment.
Oh, my God.
Give it up for Ryan! Come on!
Chance: Dan + Shay jumped up and did "Speechless" with him,
which I kind of thought was overkill.
You already got him on your team.
But great moment.
Hey! Look at this!
[ Crowd chanting "Dan + Shay!" ] Come on! I can't hear it!
One of the coolest things that's happened to us thus far.
He was just shredding up there
when he was up in that upper register.
That was where we could really hear the rock roots.
It feels good!
So I think he's gonna do great on this show.
[ Mockingly ] * Dan + Shay *
I thought he was doing an altar call. I was.
Dan + Shay are so good at the show already.
They're easing right in. Way to go.
I'm having a little bit of a slow start,
but I know my drought will end in victory.
* It's gonna be Team Dan + Shay *
I was ready to get my organ out and tune 'em up.
* This is "The Voice" *
Daly: Welcome back.
**
* Girl, you're my little boo thang *
* So I don't give a hoot what your dude say *
Ash: My name is Ash Haynes.
I'm 36. From Washington, D.C.
* Tell 'em I'm, tell 'em I'm next *
It's such a huge opportunity to be heard on this stage,
because, for the last four years,
I was all the way across the world.
I was sitting at my customer-service job,
and I got a call from someone in Sweden
needing a voluptuous,
body-positive background singer.
[ Laughs ]
It was a background gig for a prominent artist there.
He got to go to Eurovision.
So that means I got to go to Eurovision.
It's probably the biggest song contest in the world,
bigger than the Super Bowl. [ Laughs ]
After Eurovision, the other background singers and I
formed a group called The Mamas.
And, whoa, my life completely changed.
We got a huge, huge following,
but I was in this whole other country,
missing my family terribly.
I felt like, "I need to go home."
To finally be here as a solo artist,
that's amazing in itself,
but being able to sing
in front of -- oh, my gosh -- these legends.
You get ready, Reba.
These people gave us their heart through music.
Now I can possibly be coached by one of them.
It would be amazing to get a chair. [Chuckles]
**
You alright? Nervous.
**
* I call you when I need you *
* My heart's on fire *
[ Cheers and applause ]
* You come to me, come to me *
* Wild and wild *
Okay!
**
* Mmm, you come to me *
* Hah *
* Give me everything I need *
* Ohh, you're simply the best *
**
* Better than all the rest *
**
* Better than anyone *
Come on, Reba!
* Anyone I ever met *
**
* Ohh, each time you leave me *
* I start losing control *
* Oh, baby *
* Don't let g-o-o-o-o *
* Whoa, whoa *
* You're better than all the rest *
* Whoo *
* Better than anyone *
**
Come on, Reba!
* Anyone I ever met *
* Whoa, you're simply *
Come on!
* The best *
[ Cheers and applause ]
Hello. Hi!
What is your name and where are you from?
My name is Ash Haynes.
I'm from Washington, D.C.
Hey. And I'm 36.
I am sorry we don't have better news for you.
If you're gonna hit some of those big notes, like,
I want to hear them a little more accurately
with a little bit more control and precision.
I suggest you try to come back again
because you really are talented. Definitely.
Dan: Super-powerful voice.
Incredible, incredible tone and texture.
Just felt like it was a little pitchy at the front half.
Towards the end, I was regretting not pushing the button.
[ Cheers and applause ]
It's one performance, and it was pitchy at times,
but I could tell that you have the energy... Yeah.
...and the look and feel and personality of somebody
that should definitely keep going.
[ Cheers and applause ]
The only thing I could give
is be sure to take big, deep breaths.
Because if you don't have that air from down here,
it can't come out and carry a tune.
Please come back. Thank you.
Thank you, Ash.
Shay: I think the hardest thing about this show is saying no.
We've been told "no" so many times.
You know, sometimes hearing "no" can point you
in the right direction and fire you up to be
exactly where you're supposed to be at that moment.
Dan: I would like our team to be diverse.
I feel like we've always had a lot of different influences
in our music, from country to R&B
to hip-hop to rock 'n' roll.
And I feel like we could have somebody
from each of those different genres on our team.
I like her vibe.
Yeah. She seems cool.
John: I'm still looking for my first artist.
It is the great John Legend drought of season 25.
She seemed a little bit nervous, though. Yeah.
Mine may not have come, but they'll come soon.
Daly: Still to come...
Best John Legend impersonation. Let's go.
Fight, fight, fight.
Daly: ...a four-chair turn causes chaos.
Can we block John? I need a partner.
Unbelievable! Ohh!
I'm gonna just take it down. We're gonna take it down.
Oh! What's this?
How did you even get that in here?
Ohh...
* This is "The Voice" *
Daly: Welcome back to night one of the blind auditions.
Man: Our next artist is entering now.
I've got a feeling about this person.
Is this the one, John? Mm-hmm.
I have an even stronger feeling, even. Mmm!
[ Laughter ]
**
* Through drought and famine *
* Natural disasters *
* My baby has been around *
* For me *
* Every time I look into your eyes *
* I see it *
* Dah-dee-dah *
* Ooh *
* Who would've thought I'd get you? *
* Oh, yes *
* Oh, yeah, baby *
* Oo-oo-ooh *
* Who would've thought I'd get you? *
* Ooh, you, ooh, you *
* Yeah *
* Just be my lover *
* Boy, you'll lead me to *
* Paradise *
[ Cheers and applause ]
Man: Hey!
Whoo!
Hi.
[ Cheers and applause ] Whoo! Hey.
What is your name? Where you from?
My name is Nadège. I'm 26 years old.
I'm from Wellington, Florida, but I now live in Orange County.
Okay. Nadège. What kind of name is that?
It's so beautiful. Shout-out to my mom.
It's a French name, and it means "hope."
Aw. I love that.
When I was listening to you, I was just thinking about
how stylish your musical choices were.
You have a real sense of who you are as an artist.
What's your musical background?
It's so funny. The first time I ever sang
in front of an audience, I sang your song.
Which song? "Ordinary People."
So you are part of my background,
as well as my mother and father, who are both Jamaican
but have so many different kinds of genres
that have played in the house growing up.
Well, I need to hear you sing a little bit of "Ordinary People." Come on.
Ohh! Okay.
Maybe I'll come sing with you. What do you think?
Oh, my God!
Oh. My. Gosh.
He's pulling out the big guns.
I feel like I lost already.
* We're just ordinary people *
Both: * We don't know which way to go *
* 'Cause we're ordinary people *
* Maybe we should take it slow *
* Take it slow *
* Slow *
Thank you, Nadège. [ Laughs ]
[ Cheers and applause ]
Dan: Can I be on Team Nadège and Team Legend right now?
Yeah, dude. Like, man, sign me up.
I looked over and saw John turn,
and I was like, "Well, we got absolutely no chance."
Yeah, how are you supposed to choose anyone else but John
after that moment?
I would be hurt, yes. I would be hurt.
You are an unbelievable talent.
You're gonna crush this show.
Thank you. Thank you.
Alright. Go ahead. Chance.
John just did so much. Uh...
I'll sing "Ordinary People" with you, too,
like, I don't know...
If you want to. You want me to?
Let's go, man! What is happening?!
I don't know. I'm here for it.
Best John Legend impersonation.
Let's go.
[as John] * We're just ordinary people *
He can sing. Chance can sing.
* Maybe we should take it slow *
All: * Take it slow *
* Oh, ohh *
* This time we'll take it slow *
Whoa!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Amazing. Come on.
That was awesome. That was awesome.
Can't do nothing about it.
Wow. What a crazy moment.
John: Chance the Rapper. They call him "The Rapper."
But he's also a singer.
Shay: I thought there was no hope,
but now I feel like Chance might have a chance.
I don't know what just happened,
but I really do want you on my team.
My favorite part is learning from young artists
what their influences are,
finding those songs, and creating the best arrangements
that suit their voice and also help translate
the meaning and emotion behind those songs.
And I would love to do that for you.
Thank you.
[ Cheers and applause ]
I thought I was on Team John.
I might be on Team Chance right now. I gotta be honest.
John: Don't be distracted.
We're gonna let Reba break the tie here.
Yeah, you gotta break the tie...
Break the tie? Are you kidding?
That's -- That was almost shameful.
You remind me of my friend Lauren Daigle.
Ohh!
You're gonna have fun no matter who you choose.
These two renegades over here.
They're pretty good.
Come on, Nadège.
Who do you choose to be your "Voice" coach?
Who do you think? [ Audience shouting ]
You should pick me!
The jacket? Oh, my goodness.
**
* This is "The Voice" *
Daly: Welcome back.
Shay: Who do you choose to be your "Voice" coach?
Oh, my goodness.
**
I will pick Chance.
Aah! I knew it! I knew it!
Oh, my God!
Day one is crazy.
Kind of safe to say I got the cream of the crop.
Nadège just has such a great fullness to her voice.
I think we're gonna see her go very far.
I'm so excited. Congratulations.
See you soon. Thank you.
I picked Chance because I really do admire
Chance's ability to dive into so many different genres
and really make it his own.
Chance: Aaaaah!
Oh, my God!
What?!
What happened?
I don't know!
Chance's gambit worked.
John: You sounded real good.
Sounded like John Legend! I know!
He very adeptly stole my trick,
used it against me.
Well played, Chance. Well played.
I just sang that John Legend song! She picked me!
You guys, I feel like you helped turn the table.
No. I -- I don't like it.
I'm innocent. John: What is going on here?
I'm not used to these losing streaks.
Every once in a while, they come up,
but I never like it and I'll never get used to it.
Thank you!
What do I need to do to get an artist on my team?
I'm gonna have to pull out all the stops.
There's a lot of show to go.
Yeah. You know what I mean?
Everybody's so ruthless over here, man.
Old Johnny boy is having a tough time right now.
You hate to see it. But do ya?
I love to see it.
Yeah, the rivalries have already started. Yeah.
You know, we're learning the game. We're watching.
We got eyes everywhere.
I feel like I just won "The Voice."
Yeah. Is the show over?
That was probably one of my greatest victories.
It goes, like, having two beautiful children,
Grammys...
Beating John Legend at a John Legend contest?
I'm sorry if that's out of frame,
but it's really high up there.
The first time I went to one of his gigs,
I walked through the door, and he winked at me.
One of those is all it took.
It did. See? It still works.
My name is Josh Sanders.
I'm 35 years old.
And I'm from Kannapolis, North Carolina.
I'm a happily married man.
My wife's name is Kendra. She's my biggest fan.
I can't do it that way.
I've always needed a country boy like my papaw, so...
I'm a dad, you know, I'm a husband,
which is the greatest honor of all.
We've got four kids at home...
but we have five total.
Back in March of 2020, our entire lives came to a halt.
My wife gave birth to our son at 23 1/2 weeks.
There was nothing we could do.
It was just hard knowing that we we weren't
going to get to leave there with him.
* Hold my hand *
Our son Leelynd passed away on my birthday.
* Don't you leave *
Nobody grieves the same.
I could not sit still.
My soul was just not at rest.
* Oh, this darkness *
I couldn't play a note
since I sang at my son's funeral.
But...
it took a good friend to remind me,
as hard as it's going to be, sing to your boy,
sing to your wife, you know?
It'll help heal her heart.
What we've gone through the last three years,
you know, he wears his heart on his sleeve.
And I think it's his time. It's his turn.
Man: 30 seconds.
I'm so, so proud of you.
If you don't choose Reba... [ Laughs ]
...we're gonna have some issues.
We'll see what happens.
Josh: Music has been an enormous part of my life.
I've tried different jobs, different bands,
and I've always landed back
doing a solo, acoustic kind of thing.
Good luck, guys.
I'm ready to get out there and do this thing.
We've got two so far. Yeah.
We need ten. Yeah.
**
* Wasted a paycheck on whiskey and longnecks *
* Ever since you left trying to figure this out *
* This Jack I've been drinking *
* It's been wasted on thinking *
* Now I've got a new reason *
* For throwing 'em down *
* Line 'em up *
* Pour 'em tall *
* Here's to us *
* Happily never after all, yeah *
Come on. Hang in there.
* Ain't gonna waste one more night *
* Missing, wanting you back *
* No, I ain't gonna cry *

* No, I ain't gonna waste another drop *

* Ay, ohh *
* Ain't gonna waste one more night *

* No, I ain't gonna cry *

* Oh, ohh-ohh *
Yeah!
* No, I ain't *
Should we go in? I don't know.
Have to do it now.
* No, I ain't gonna waste *
* Another drop of whiskey on you *
[ Cheers and applause ]
Yeah! Aah!
Oh, my God.
[ Cheers and applause ]
**
Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight.
Right in the nick of time! Under the buzzer.
We're about to have a showdown.
What's your name, man? Where you from?
Josh Sanders. I'm 35.
I'm from Kannapolis, North Carolina.
Chance: Welcome!
I don't know the song, being honest,
but I'm sure the originator would be proud.
Uh, yeah. Thanks, man.
I'm just really excited to see, uh, Reba and Dan + Shay
duke it out, so I'm gonna pass it on to Reba.
Reba: Pass it on. [ Laughs ]
Fight, fight, fight.
Hi, Josh. I loved your vocal.
I thought it was great. It was stout.
The power, once you got into it. I really did like it.
Then I saw them turning around.
I thought, "Oh, my gosh, now what am I gonna have to do?"
But I would really love to have you on Team Reba.
You're great. Thank you so much.
That's a very hard song to sing.
There's a lot of range in that.
Nate Smith. Nate Smith.
Our guy. That's our buddy.
When I was hearing those high notes,
I just felt like the power of your voice was fantastic.
And I said, "Well, we can't just give it to Reba."
We got to represent Nashville.
You sing out a lot?
I do. Uh, I sing quite a bit of country,
but if I'm honest, first record I ever bought
was "No Strings Attached," NSYNC.
Me too!
Solid choice. That was my first album!
But what really keeps my voice sharp is pastor at church
and lead worship just about every Sunday.
And so...
Shay: I could tell, man.
I could tell you got that confidence up there.
Got swagger. It's awesome, man.
I grew up. I was a preacher's grandson.
And my dad was a PK.
I feel like, even in the church,
there's just so many different influences,
and you kind of listen to everything.
So I love that, man.
Thank you, guys, so much, man.
You know, I could say that my neighbor's stepson's
real father was a preacher...
[ Laughter ]
...that I kind of sort of knew,
but I'm not gonna get in that competition.
Chance: I was literally just thinking, like,
I've never heard somebody claim, like, their father was a PK.
Like, usually, they're like --
Listen. We're taking all we can get, Chance, alright?
My grandfather was my pastor, too.
My grandfather was definitely not a pastor.
I, too, love God! No. Alright.
Josh, you got two amazing choices.
Technically, three, but, like, two on one side, one on the other.
Who do you want to be your coach?
Audience: Reba!
Whoa! Whoa, whoa!
Damn. Damn.
John: Whoa! Whoa!
Shay: The audience working against us.
She paid 'em to say that!
[ Audience chanting "Reba!" ]
Oh, my goodness.
[ Audience chanting "Reba!" ]
Guys, I love y'all, but I can't turn down
the queen of country, so it's Reba.
[ Cheers and applause ]
First day of season 25 is going amazingly well.
There was everything in Josh's voice that I absolutely loved.
It was round. It had a little grit to it.
I'm thrilled to pieces that he chose me.
He's a perfect country singer.
You got a good coach here.
Chance: One of these times, I'm just gonna over there
so I can get the chicken nuggets.
Well fought. Well fought. We did it.
Reba's on fire. She sure is.
Thank you, thank you. It's kind of crazy.
This is only her second season.
But she's an absolute legend. She knows what she's doing.
Whoo! Thank y'all! Thank y'all! Thank y'all!
Ow! [ Audience chanting "Reba!" ]
Dan: We're gonna need y'all next time we hit that button.
Alright?
[ Chanting ] Dan + Shay! Dan + Shay!
Dan + Shay! Yeah, baby!
Man: Let's go, Chance!
Chance, they're chanting for you.
Audience: Let's go, Chance!
[ Clap, clap, clap-clap-clap ]
Shay: This is unbelievable.
Changed on a dime. Changed on a dime.
Audience: Let's go, Chance!
You can't trust them.
Nope. No trust.
* This is "The Voice" *
Daly: Welcome back to the blind auditions.
Both: Rock, paper, scissors, shoot!
You gotta be kidding me. I lost again!
Ha ha! Let's go, baby!
Competition is really heating up.
They're out there "conspiragating."
Not against me. Just conspiragating.
John: It's been a tough day.
Team Legend. We need some artists. Let's go!
* Whoo *
I'm Kenna.
I'm Sierra. And I'm Courtney.
All: We're OK3 from Oklahoma City.
These girls are my sisters, practically,
and we laugh like sisters and we fight like sisters, you know?
I would say that I'm the really laid-back, chill one.
Kind of goofy.
I supposedly am the sassy one, which is kind of true.
You hear that attitude? No, I'm just kidding.
And I'm just very energetic.
[ Laughter ]
We actually met through our vocal coach.
* He's the boogie... * We've been best friends
since we were teenagers,
doing shows together in different competitions.
Stepping on the "Voice" stage means so much with these girls.
They have been through every single part of my life,
like, the goods, the bads, everything.
[ Chuckles ]
We love you. Love you.
In 2017, we split.
We were just in different phases of our lives.
We didn't see each other for four years.
We are so excited to be back.
Our first show right here on the Opry stage,
where we used to love performing.
"The Voice" was the reason that we got back together.
We saw Girl Named Tom. We saw Sorelle do so well.
We were like, "Yeah, we want to try."
This is 10 years in the making.
Here we go. We'd love to work with Dan + Shay
because they're the first group coaches.
And they are killer at harmonies.
I think we all definitely see this as our big break.
* I could have my *

Whoo!
Whoo-ooh-ooh-ooh!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Four chairs, baby.
What are your names?
What's the name of your group? Tell us about yourselves.
I am Kenna. I'm 22.
I'm Sierra, and I'm 23.
And I'm Courtney, and I'm 25.
All: We're OK3.
What does OK3 mean? Are you from Oklahoma?
We are from Oklahoma. Yes, sir.
Whoo-hoo!
Don't look over there too much. Don't look over there too much.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. It's between us right now.
I loved your performance. That was, like, a show.
It was a mini concert. Are you related?
We met through our vocal coach. Okay.
And she's here today. She's actually here with us today.
John: She must be so proud!
I grew up arranging songs for groups,
and then when I went to college,
I was, like, an award-winning a cappella arranger.
If there's nothing else that I do, I do this.
We love that. [ Laughs ] I feel like there's a lot of space
for a big pop girl group right now,
and I would love to be your coach.
Thank you! Thank you.
Are you done? I am done.
I just wanted to make sure that they were clear...
We gotta get out of here soon.
...on the experience that I bring to bear
in this situation.
John, you're done. Your time is up.
My heart is racing right now because I want you guys so bad.
Well, that was my favorite performance
that we've seen so far.
I don't want to bash John too bad early.
He was saying he's an award-winning arranger for groups.
We're an award-winning group. We're literally in a group.
This is literally what we do.
We have a double chair.
We have two. We could get a third.
[ Laughter ]
I have two sisters. I grew up singing in the church
and doing exactly what you guys are doing right now.
Your voices are phenomenal.
This is not fair, this whole...
John, your time is up. We got to stand on.
Yeah, I got to stand on this.
This is an unfair advantage.
Can we block -- Can we block John?
Can we turn off his mic?
They don't even know how to arrange for three.
They just arrange for two. They'll be so confused.
I need a partner to help me advocate...
He doesn't need -- He doesn't need anybody.
[ Air rushes ]
Unbelievable. What is this?!
[ Laughter ]
We love you guys so much. This is awesome.
We're gonna just take it down. We're gonna take it down.
John: Me and my partner can help you.
You can't hear him over the guy here.
We can't even hear you.
Listen. You guys, all three, are phenomenal singers.
It's so distracting.
Song arrangements. That's what we do.
We've got little tricks like this.
Hey, I'm Dan. And I'm Shay.
Both: And we're Dan + Shay.
John can't do that. And, by the way,
Meghan Trainor -- also a good friend of mine.
We've worked with all kinds of different artists,
different genres, as we still do,
collaborating with people like Charlie Puth, Justin Bieber.
You might have heard of him. He's a new artist.
So, yeah, just make the right decision,
and we'll be praying for you guys, so...
Get out of the way. Team Dan + Shay.
Get out of the way. I'm sorry.
I feel like John doing that, uh,
inflatable tube man thing
has taken all of my spirit away.
Like, it was so loud and distracting.
But you guys did great. Thank you so much.
A couple seasons ago, I worked with a trio,
and I have a lot of fun working with harmonics,
with arranging for groups.
I could kind of expand your palette in terms
of what genres you want to play around with.
And, also, they're in a group, and he arranged for groups,
but I have a "3" hat, so, like...
We know that. 3 is our lucky number.
[ Laughter ] That's pretty good.
Yay. My turn! Hi, ladies. How you doing,
fellow Okies? Okies!
When I was growing up, I was part of the Singing McEntires.
Loved the harmony.
Oh! [ Laughs ]
What's this?
Ohh.
[ Laughter ]
How did you even get that in here?!
I have a few of those.
We have three of those in the Duo Group category.
But did you bring 'em today? I travel with mine.
[ Laughter ]
Anyway, I would love to have you gals on my team.
We'd have a blast.
And, also, if you're part of the Reba team, you get...
Chance: Oh, my. ...chicken tenders.
Bribery. You got cash in your wallet?
I got cash. I will give you all the money in my wallet right now.
Ladies, I'm not gonna try to bribe you with cash,
but I do have jackets.
Those are going for 5 bucks on eBay.
John, you've already had your say.
I am the queen of country music.
Yes, you are. Yes, you are.
I'm just saying. I would love to have you in my kingdom.
I feel like my partner and I have said...
[ Air rushes ]
Oh, my gosh.
[ Laughing ] We've said...
Hey. Hold on. Hold on. Before you pick,
I think we need a little bit of help from the crowd.
You guys have anything under your chairs?
You have anything that you'd like to say?
Are you ready? John: This is nonsense.
Audience: Dan! Dan: And Shay!
Dan + Shay! Dan + Shay!
That's a whole lot louder than the inflatable guy.
Don't even think about John.
That's all the tricks they had for today.
The whole day.
I feel like you need clear direction
from one coach... and their friend.
Let's unplug this thing.
[ Air escapes ]
And with your inflatable.
I'm so nervous right now. I've never been more nervous.
Are you gonna get advice from your coach?
You should have her come over and help you guys decide.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Man: Go get 'em, Amanda.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Amanda: Oh, my God.
Who do you choose as your coach?
[ Audience shouting ]
[ Indistinct conversation ]
Right here.
[ Audience shouting ]
Okay.
I think we're gonna choose...
