THE VOICE Season 2 Recaps with DJ Kwokodile [Episode 2]

So I am really loving this new series, new series meaning the new blog posts! Last night was the first official start, due to the fact that it was at a regular time and 15 auditions. My favorite so far is in this episode! Let's see if you can guess who it is!
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              
1. [American Girl] - The Line
    Wow! The first duo group! I didn't think they were outstanding and according to iTunes, not many people rated the song. They still got all 4 coaches to turn around, this is most probable, because they are the first duo, all coaches want variety in the type of kinds of music they have. The voices weren't bad so the coaches didn't hesitate. I think they should have gone with Blake, one because he turned around before the girl even started singing, and he is a country artist just like them. They ultimately picked Christina!


2. [Seven Nation Army] - Jamar Rogers
  What an amazing story Jamar has! He used to be hooked to crystal meth, and now he volunteers for homeless! He is completely sober, and he has a great voice! This White Stripes rendition is great. Cee Lo was the sole coach that picked Jamar. Cee Lo was the person Jamar wanted to be mentored by. So it didn't really matter that only 1 person turned around. He got who he wanted!

3. [Stay] - Gwen Sebastian
She is one of the better country singers on this show. At first glance, she looks more rock, but she has really really good country vocals! All 3 coaches turned around for her. But because of her country roots, she picked to be on Team Blake! She has a really great voice, and the song she sang was sung perfectly! I think she will get quite far!

4. [Tell Me Something Good] - Kim Yarbrough
Wow! What a long name for a song, and what a long last name as well! She is the kinda woman who you can picture by her voice. She has a great voice, very deep, and it reminds me of last year's Frenchie Davis, but Kim has hair! Christina and Adam turned around for her. I would think she would pick Christina, but she picked Adam.


 5. [Say Aah] - Lindsey Pavao
  This is my favorite so far! Her voice is very similar to Dia's and she turned an awesome rap into a awesome regular song from the alternative genre! The Trey Songz song that was a rap was arranged by her into a plain old awesome song! It was pitch perfect and had an indie touch to it! Almost all the coaches turned around, only Adam didn't. Guess that wasn't his genre! It was a tiny bit surprising that she picked Christina, but I would have surprised if she picked anyone.  I think she is the front runner for TeamXtina! She has the most downloads on iTunes and the most reviews! 5 Star rating! She is super good! and my favorite!


 6. [Complicated] - Jermaine Paul
 WOW! A great great great Avril Lavigne song covered by Jermaine! He used to be a backup singer for the amazing Alicia Keys! I think he is a little bit proud. I think the 2 coaches that picked him, didn't really fit him. I think Christina and Adam should have turned instead of Cee Lo and Blake. It also was really weird that he picked Blake. Blake is country and totally not even that lenient to help a male pop star with a high voice. Great Voice, not great choices.


7. [Someone Like You] - Angel Taylor:) I love this song by ADELE, and I love it covered by Sam Tsui, and now by Angel Taylor! I think her voice has so many similarities to ADELE. It has a certain raspiness that sounds amazing. Her pitches are perfect and has such a range! I think she was the second or third best of the night. Either Angel or Jermaine were second. They were both super good. I totally expected everyone to turn around. I really thought Christina would turn around, but she didn't. A real star she is. If I were in her position, I would pick Adam, and she did! So she is a smart one. Adam was also smart to risk it by pressing his button before the chorus, because if he did. He would have a better chance to get her, and the risk paid off! Good Job TeamAdam!

I love doing this and if you like it, I would love doing more! Please comment below! Totally want to know who reads this blog!

P.S I will not be blogging about the people in the blind auditions who didn't make the cut, unless they were really really good. Sorry for any inconvenience!

P.P.S I have updated this set, so all the song names, will link to youtube and will give you the performance highlights! :)
