Misirlou Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 (edited) Insipired by @Hsamid, I was curious about this one. Widely considered to be one of the greatest battles in the history of the show (Top 3 for me), both of them were highly acclaimed for that performance. And while the coaches seemed to prefer Jackie, I think IDF was more torn. Let´s see if it stays that way. DR won the battle and Jackie got a triple steal. Don´t take other performances into account, this is solely based on the battle. It was close, but I´d give DR the edge solely because he grabbed me from the beginning. Jackie´s start wasn´t as strong for me. But man, they both killed it at the end. Edited May 16, 2022 by Misirlou 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QueenCami Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 (Queen) Jackie Foster. She's one of my favorites from s14, I love her tone. I think that she topped DR in their little high belt battle at the end. I really loved that both of them started off soft and held back and then built up to a really impressive end. I'll note that DR's voice seems more prominent/audible on their harmonies at parts, but I still prefer Jackie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colemanftw Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Jackie's higher end is at times unpleasant to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookie73 Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 I figured this was going to come up at some point. DR gave his best performance in the competition by a landslide. Jackie was one of my favorites of that season, and this was one of her best performances as well. I remember seeing DR’s falsetto and thinking it was great, but Jackie ended up delivering a higher and stronger falsetto. I’d personally go with Jackie here, but both were excellent here. This is in my Top 2 performances of the season due to the lack of great solo performances this season, as well as how epic this battle was. This was the last battle to really excite me.

TheVoiceFan2 Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 I thought Jackie really had an edge on the battle, but it's not like I was pissed or thought DR's win was underserving, I would've just given it to Jackie. DR is phenomenal though 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hsamid Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 I also think I prefered DR at the start. But atm I feel like Jackie had the slight edge near the end of the performance. So I don't know who to choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hsamid Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 Interesting that all the battles that are widely considered to be some of the best in the history of the voice US, have been nothing but lopsided polls so far.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloorWax Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 (edited) Seems like I'm in the minority, but I was more impressed by D.R. in that battle. However, Jackie F had the better run by far. Edited July 5, 2021 by FloorWax 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David68 Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 (edited) D.R slayed that. I'm surprised it's such a lopsided poll. Should be right at even IMO. Edited July 5, 2021 by David68 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyarianaandkelly123 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 i am sorry but dr king win that battle but jackie is good too love both of them so much and i am glad they collab on a song together love is a drug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VoiceFan2577 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 I thought D.R. won by a bit. Every single part of his performance was perfect. There was one small part where Jackie sounded a little off, but still both were amazing and it's probably my favorite battle from any season tbh.

TeamAudra Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 All I know is this...once they went live, D.R. was very rough. Knowing that, I can’t help wonder how much help he got from the audio techs in this battle. So, I have to go with Jackie. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
