Hsamid Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 (edited) I know there was a similar poll done a few years ago but I can't find it in the archives and it's the easiest one to do since I'm too lazy to look through KOs I've never listened to before atm. Desz vs sid Carter vs Chloe Edited January 2, 2023 by Hsamid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hsamid Posted January 2, 2023 Author Share Posted January 2, 2023 Also i just wanna say, Tanner Gomes KO is the sexiest performance in the history of the voice and no one will convince me otherwise. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allistr Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Desz Carter by a hair Marisa (despite being karen-y afterwards, she still took it for me performance-wise) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorWax Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 I am a huge fan of Sid Kingsley. He was my snowflake that season, in fact. I do think however that Desz took this KO. He held his own, but she’s the clear winner in my eyes. I remember preferring Chloe but I think Carter obviously won this one vocally lol so I couldn’t not vote for him. Will always vote against Tanner Gomes, even if the other option is Marisa Corvo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misirlou Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 - The gritty blues Sid delivered here can´t be denied for me. My pick. DeSz did fantastic as well. - I preferred Chloe. Obviously Carter was good and this basically won him the show, but I enjoyed Chloe´s work more here. - I´d say Marisa. Tanner was more consistent but he barely really did anything. Marisa did flip the song and took a risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erik g Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 DeSz. Sid was great too I go back to watch Carters more than I go back to watch Chloes so I picked him, Chloe also slayed Tanner gave the more consistent vocal, and I was not a fan of Marissa's tone (her battle was an exception) so I picked him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hsamid Posted January 2, 2023 Author Share Posted January 2, 2023 (edited) Bias against male country singers really showing here... Marisa was very pitchy at parts, even before she started belting. Tanner was a real good man throughout the performance. Edited January 2, 2023 by Hsamid 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VintageVoice Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Sid was solid and deserved a steal, but Desz takes that for me because that was absolutely flawless from the word “go.” Either of them going home after their KOs would’ve been criminal, but I voted for Desz because that would’ve been the bigger travesty if she’d left the show after that. Chloe’s version of “Weak” is the strongest cover that’s been done on the show, and had she gone up against anyone else on Team Gwen (except maybe Payge) during the KOs she would’ve won. That said, Carter won the show with his KO; considering the amount of control, emotional connection, and range he showed here it’s not terribly difficult to understand how he won people over. Marisa’s start was a touch shaky but the ending was strong, and Tanner’s was decent if a bit cheesy. I would’ve picked Marisa by a hair, but I can’t fault Kelly for choosing Tanner in this specific instance. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarWalker1 Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 When I first watched it live, Sid. However, as time passed, I think I grew to love and appreciate Desz here more Carter, even thou Chloe did solid here too! Marisa lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QueenCami Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 This one's easy: DeSz -- best KO of the season. Chloe -- much more interesting performances than Carter. Marisa -- legend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hsamid Posted January 2, 2023 Author Share Posted January 2, 2023 1. Desz Imo, I think Desz has the best KO of the season though there are a few other close competitions. Its the one I come back to the most and I think it might be my personal favourite rendition of the song, even if there are a few that are more vocally impressive like Avery Wilson's. Pretty huge compliment considering the amount of talented singers that have covered the song. Sid was a worthy opponent, but I wasn't a fan of all the "ooohs" he added at the end of every sentence. It was repetitive and didn't help that they all sounded the same. Otherwise it would have been an even closer pairing 2. Carter Carter's KO might be the most emotive performance of the season (close with Payge's battle and KO). Really impressive stuff from anyone. But especially someone so young where they may not have the best ability to emote due to maybe not habing the life experience to draw from. Chloe's performance was really fun though 3. Tanner, easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nytsch Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 DeSz Love Sid too but this one’s pretty clear imo. Carter Chloe was good but there were a few vocal moments at the beginning where I was like “hmm…” She was really good by the end but Carter’s was great start to finish so I’d give it to him. Tanner Eh… I mean even ignoring Marisa’s behavior afterwards I don’t really care about this one. I’ll go for Tanner just to make it interesting.

Jaffy Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 1. DeSz, By A Hair 2. Chloe, By A Hair 3. IDF is gonna destroy me for this but, Tanner, By A Hair. Attitude is a big thing for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Someone648 Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 1. DeSz - Sid was fantastic but DeSz 100% gave one of the best KO performances of all time. Very deserving of a steal from Sid, though. 2. Chloe - I didn't care for Carter here at all. Chloe stepped up. 3. Marisa - Her performance was flawed but as a whole, much better than Tanner's. Marisa's didn't come together completely due to everything she tried to do, but Tanner was... Tanner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find his audition even cringier actually, it was so, so cheesy. And his Playoffs performances speak for themselves. Not even Kelly would save him after those. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough, I don't like any of his other performances but he pulls off the bro country song he covered in his KO very well and ... he just has that vibe about him.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gustavo527 Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 (edited) I regret picking Carter. I mean, since everyone loved that performance so much, i just went for the most popular option. But IMO Chloe had a much more interesting performance (Or maybe is bias because i'm not the biggest fan of Christian songs in The Voice and i can't stand that song in particular ) Edited January 3, 2023 by Gustavo527 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VintageVoice Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 On Tanner v. Marisa: The other reason Marisa should’ve won: avoiding the Twitter rampage & Tanner’s cringe-ass “favorite cowboy” goodbye speech would’ve been a win-win situation, soooooo…. /j 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
