It's day six of blind auditions aka the last day for the coaches of 'The Voice' Season 21 to fill their teams. Up until now the coaches, Ariana Grande, Blake Shelton, Kelly Clarkson and John Legend were being very selective when it came to turning their chairs for the performers. But considering there are only one or two spots left on their team, the coaches became even more picky in turning their chairs saving it for a performance that would knock their socks off.

Despite their extremely selective ways, Aaron Hines managed to get the highly coveted four-chair turn from all the four coaches. Aaron's performance left the coaches quibbling among themselves to show him that they really wanted him on their team. Blake used his age-old "I always produce winners" tactic, while Kelly Clarkson bonded with him over their shared Texas connection, Ariana was simply in awe of him. John seemed to have the strongest connection with Aaron considering the performer revealed that he used to sing John's popular son 'All of Me' at weddings. Although it seemed like Aaron was likely to pick Team Legend, he surprised everybody by picking Team Kelly. If you're curious to know the reason behind his decision then we got you covered.

The Texas native's rendition to 'Heartbreak Anniversary' left fans impressed as well.

A fan commented on a video clip of his performance on the show's YouTube page with, "Wow he's the type of singer that I would listen to while it's raining outside and I'm just trying to vibe." Another fan wrote, "I absolutely loved aaron’s performance, it reminded me a little bit of bruno mars and nathan sykes and i was blown away with his voice and his runs, I definitely think it could be improved and i know it would be amazing ❤️." "That's a voice! Great song choice that really showed off his silky smooth vocals. This was just so damn SEXY! Caress them notes, man.," expressed another fan.
