Walker opted for a honky tonk song titled 'I Ain't Living Long Like This'. On the other hand, Kylee, who always felt like an "outcast", sang 'All By Myself'. Reba McEntire complimented Walker saying that the "swagger and gravel" in his voice made him sound sexy. She even claimed that his smile reminded her of Patrick Swayze. Walker and Kylee's performances were poles apart from each other. While Kylee showed off her big voice and took control of the stage, Walker brought out his countryside with an acoustic guitar. 

Chance the Rapper claimed Walker's pitch has always been "perfect" but Kylee was the one who blew him off. Kelly Clarkson also loved Walker's song but was moved by Kylee. Indeed, both were impressive in two different ways. Still, Blake chose to eliminate Walker and moved ahead in the show with Kylee. 

'What were you thinking?'

After Blake chose Kylee over Walker, fans disagreed with the coach's choices. A fan tweeted, "@blakeshelton #TheVoice I have to disagree with your choice. Walker should have gone thru. Much more entertaining and Kylie was pitchy." Another wondered, "@blakeshelton #TheVoice Blakeie what wer you thinkin kicking Off WALKER."

"@blakeshelton #TheVoice Had a chance to go out with a country/rocker winner with Walker Blake! Now you'll have to win with a pop singer," wrote one viewer. A fan complimented Blake's team but said, "@blakeshelton #TheVoice love your team! You should have taken walker!!"
