Was the last time that "Freeway of Love" was covered on The Voice was during S8 (Meghan and Blake's duet)...?

Dana Monique sang Freeway of Love for her blind audition last season.

A lot of these song choices are so boring

Jim and Sasha Allen - “Have You Ever Seen the Rain” by Credence Clearwater Revival

Another snoozer.

they aren’t singing this i’m just being a troll

can you please not? trolls are really annoying

The S9 bloodbath was straight-up depressing. Barrett getting the third PV completely ruined the whole thing for me. Amy landing in the bottom 3 was one of the most shocking results I've ever seen (idk what her socials were like, I went entirely off iTunes back then and remember Amy was always an iTunes frontrunner). Madi leaving didn't help either.

It’s not like Wendy’s going home next week but considering her somewhat average Facebook performance last week I was kinda hoping to see a rebound.

Maybe I’ll get it, just not until semifinals.

Wendy said it is something fast that she can have fun with. 

That kinda kills the excitement I had for her doing Aretha again. 
 

Aretha with a ballad was a breakout. Uptempo Aretha? Probably not gonna do much.

would it be a shock if we saw wendy in middle 3 in semis and not pv 3?

I think it would, but only because her competition, GNT aside, is pretty weak. I can’t think of 2 other contestants who can actively beat her right now.

The holy trinity remains impact, but is now a holy quartet!

1. Wendy Moten

2. Girl Named Tom

3. Jershika Maple

4. Holly Forbes

Strong

5. Gymani

6. Hailey Mia

7. Paris Winningham

Blah

8. Lana Scott

9. Joshua Vacanti

10. Jeremy Rosado

WHY ARE YOU STILL HERE?
11. Jim & Sasha Allen

Wendy's T11 performance will be on her birthday 

Gymani's T13 instant save win was the first time in Voice history that a contestant won singing 2nd in an instant save consisting of at least 3 people.

Because it's Blake. That's literally it.

GNT absolutely dominated this week.

With reactions this low, it’s hard to say who’s in what specific position otherwise.

If there’s no cumulative vote, then I think Facebook stats only matter for that particular week.

The stats tend to vary based on performance quality, and it can rise or fall for anyone for basically the same reason.

…right?

GNT leading in views, reacts and shares

 

Artist      views   reacts  shares

GNT        135k    7.3k    921

Paris        68k    3.4k    228

Hailey      53k    2.3k     128

Jeremy    49k    2.4k     257

Wendy    48k     1.8k      142

Jershika  46k    1.9k      268

Ryleigh   36k     1.1k       84 

J & s        29k    1.3k      95

Shadale   29k    779      49

Lana        29k     977      74

Holly        27k     1.2k     186

Gymani    16k     743      49

Joshua     12k     683     68

 

I don't know how to do the ratios though.

 

 

when SECOND place is 3.4K likes you know these are low standings.

3.4K likes with 6M viewers means practically nothing, even if Facebook is the most accurate indicator.

How’s everyone doing on Facebook? Would like to see

GNT is crushing, with over double the reacts of Paris who's in 2nd.

The rest are crumpled pretty close together with less than 1K reacts separating each one. Gymani, Shadale, and Joshua are the only ones to have not cracked 1K reacts yet.

Shadale's opening. Only uptempo song choice of the night says it all.

Closing? I'd bet on Holly, because she's going to get pimped by TPTB so Ari gets a finalist.

PERFECT song choice, that's all I gotta say.

Wendy's gonna destroy this.

So basically the TLDR:

-Ryleigh and Shadale are in the B3, and the last one is up for grabs.

In other words, nothing unexpected

The studios are on itunes! and BK was not trolling

Oh come on TPTB, why bus people who aren't even that dangerous to begin with?

S7- Justin Johnes (BA) and Anita Antoinette (T10)- Let Her Go

S14- JessLee (BA) and Jackie Verna (T12)- I’m With You

 

Also in S4, Matt Cermanski got a no chair turn with Teenage Dream, which Luke Edgemon sang in Knockouts that season

Also S15 - Chevel/Mikele sang “You Look So Good In Love” during their battle (albeit it was montaged) where that was Kirk Jay’s duet song with Blake in the finale

Alright, this is how I see things going right now. I don't expect things to stay exactly the same, but we'll see.

1. Wendy Moten - I don't know if she'll win the show, but the fact that Blake has pushed her so hard combined with the fact that Minivan seemed to have caught on to her is a great sign. At the least, it seems she's a lock for the finale, and she could definitely win the entire thing. It also helps that she's pretty much incapable of flopping live.

2. Girl Named Tom - They very well could win, and along with Wendy are the only act I'd consider a lock for the finale. Minivan's complaint about "It's The Voice not The Voices" sounds like a disadvantage on paper, but given their reception so far I doubt that'll be a big factor.

3. Paris Winningham - Blake got something along the lines of a Chloe level steal here. Paris having the highest Facebook stats in playoffs helps a lot. I don't think he's necessarily a lock for the finale, and I doubt he'll win since Blake is going to push much harder for Wendy, but it wouldn't be a Voice finale without 2 Blake contestants would it?

4. Holly Forbes - Holly's much better than her playoffs performance indicates, and I think Minivan knew that too. Definitely still Ariana's best (and only) shot at reaching the finale. I think she will be the only Ariana contestant in the semifinals, and if that happens she is going to get pushed HARD so Ariana has a finalist in her first season, instant save or not.

5. Jeremy Rosado - The man actually passed GNT on Facebook today, for what it's worth. He's basically the most typically Minivan friendly contestant left, I think he'll be around for a while. Finale will be a reach, but don't be surprised to see him in the semifinals instant save.

6. Hailey Mia - The only reason I have Hailey below Jeremy is she didn't get the PV in playoffs where he did. Hailey apparently had a breakdown after Kelly's results were announced (pre-wildcard) and within mere minutes composed herself and delivered in an extremely high pressure situation. That takes guts. The kid is made of solid steel, and I don't think she has anything to worry about right now. She might reach the finale.

7. Jershika Maple - Here's where it gets tricky. I don't think John will be completely shut out of the semifinals, and I feel Jershika is his best shot right now. Why? Because she got the first PV with a questionable song choice, and I think Minivan still does enjoy her. Maybe if she gets better song choices she can reach the middle 3, but finale is a longshot.

8. Gymani - Out of all the contestants from this spot and below, I think Gymani is most likely to deliver in an instant save. Even though she didn't get PV, her Facebook standings were decent by when the voting closed. Maybe she'll make the semifinals, maybe she won't.

9. Joshua Vacanti - Minivan typically doesn't vote for the "broadway" singers so Joshua getting PV indicates he has a fanbase, but I can't help but feel like it was because he just happened to sing good even with a bad song choice. I wouldn't be too surprised to see him in the semifinals though.

10. Jim & Sasha Allen - If their team wasn't so weak they would have been doomed. Their song choice and competition helped them survive playoffs, but I think their PV was a fluke. They've been unmemorable so far.

11. Lana Scott - As the lone country singer remaining I don't think Lana has to worry just yet about leaving the competition, but she hasn't really made much waves on social media. She'll need another Wildest Dreams moment to stick around much longer.

12. Shadale - I love Shadale and think she should be in the T8, especially since Minivan does enjoy her, but the competition might just be too tight for her to overcome more than 1 or 2 live weeks.

13. Ryleigh Plank - Ryleigh was a pretty baffling save after having a poor performance and the weakest Facebook stats. The girl can sing, however, and she got an insanely tough song in playoffs, but she might just be too "weird" for this competition. Not that it's a bad thing, it's just not what Minivan votes for.

1. Paris - Honestly, I think he'll be in the finale. Minivan LOVES him and you can't have a finale without 2 Blake contestants right?

2. Jeremy - He'll make the bloodbath for sure, and maybe to the instant save as well. I don't think he'll make the finale, but I knew from the beginning that he was going to get PV once I saw Kelly's top 5, and I was right. Watch out, he's dangerous.

3. Joshua - Not the type of artist who usually goes far, but if Legend's team is so weak where a contestant typically disliked by Minivan gets PV, I think he'll make bloodbath.

4. Jim & Sasha - If Ari's team wasn't so weak they wouldn't be here. The fact that they got PV after having one of the worst performances of the night might work in their favor though, but they have a big uphill battle.

After top 8 there is semi final and final. So maybe 8-6-4 to get rid of the bloodbath or 8-7-4 so still semi bloodbath but it's not a 8 to 4 like the previous seasons

I think top 8 IS the semi final. 11/29 is 2 weeks before 12/14, which is when they said the finale would be.
