UNIVERSAL CITY, CALIFORNIA: 'The Voice' 2023 episode that was released on May 8 marked Part 2 of the Playoff round, where the contestants performed their best skills to impress the coaches and secure their spot in the next round. The episode showcased a diverse range of talent, leaving viewers in awe.

One of the standout performers of the night was Cait Martin. The coaches were impressed with her since the Blind Auditions and all of them turned their chairs to secure her spot on their team.

Blake Shelton thinks Cait Martin's performance was off a pitch

In the episode of 'The Voice' Season 23 Playoffs, Cait Martin took the stage to sing 'Alone,' and it was a performance to remember. Niall, one of the coaches, praised her big notes, noting that they were pure and clean, while Chance was equally impressed, stating that she "killed it." Blake, on the other hand, had mixed feedback, acknowledging that she hit all the big notes perfectly, but there were some pitch issues during some runs. Pitch issues can be a challenging obstacle for any singer, but it's a hurdle that Cait was determined to overcome. Despite the critiques from Blake, Cait's vocal range and power were undeniable, leaving Kelly in awe of her performance. Kelly noted that Cait has a massive voice, and she's not sure if there's anyone else in the competition who can nail a song like her. While Cait's pitch issues may have been a point of concern for some of the coaches, her potential to improve and excel is limitless. Unfortunately, she does not move to the semi-finals.



 

'No way Cait moves on'

In the latest episode of 'The Voice,' Cait Martin's performance of 'Alone' left fans divided. While some were impressed by her powerful voice and emotive delivery, others felt that her pitch issues detracted from the overall performance. Social media was buzzing with comments about her rendition, with one fan suggesting that Cait should "back off the vibrato some though." Despite the mixed feedback, there were moments where Cait's talent shone through, as noted by another fan who tweeted, "I feel like Cait had some moments that weren’t quite as perfect as we’re used to from her, but she put it ALL out there and SMASHED IT at the end."

However, not all fans were convinced, with one commenting, "no for cait... she’s good but no.", while another said, "Cait's Alone performance had a few great moments but... she also had pitchy moments and the arrangement wasn't as cool as the original. Maybe her worst performance but still think she deserves to go through" Blake, one of the coaches, also shared his thoughts on Cait's performance, acknowledging that she had some pitchy moments. While some fans agreed with his assessment, others felt that Cait's talent deserved to be recognized despite any flaws. "Cait was great, but I agree with Blake," one fan tweeted. "Wasn't feeling Alone, sadly. I love Cait, but Ann Wilson aches when she sings & makes you feel it. Cait didn't."
