'The Voice' Season 17 Live Playoffs: John Legend's team outshine the others in the Top 20 with their impeccable vocals
John Legend pulled out all the stops when 'The Voice' season 17 returned on Monday night for its Top 20 Live-Playoffs.
After weeks of Blind Auditions, Battle Rounds, Knockouts, mentoring and coaching, 'The Voice' season 17 has finally entered its live shows, and it was nothing less than spectacular to see the Top 20 contestants battle it out against each other for a spot in the Top 13.
When the series returns tomorrow for the results, the top two contestants with the most votes from each team will move on to the next round. The coaches will then have the chance to select one contestant from their team to join the other two. The remaining contestants will battle it out for an Instant Save, and the viewers will get to vote for their favorite contestant and the one contestant with the highest vote that night will move on to the next round. While the remaining seven will be sent home.
On Monday night's Top 20 Live Playoffs, the contestants performed team-wise. And though John Legend's team was the last to perform on Monday night, they really gave the other teams a run for their money. Looks like John really knows what he is doing this season. After he won season 16 with Maelyn Jarmon, he is even more eager to win this season, especially since he has some impeccable singers.
This week, standing out amongst the others were John's singers. Alex Guthrie performed his version of Alicia Keys' 'If I Ain't Got You'. It was a really good song choice and he captivated the viewers with his voice. Marybeth Byrd sang her rendition of Ellie Goulding's 'Love Me Like You Do'. Her vocals stood out compared to the rest. Katie Kadan blew the roof off with her version of 'Always Remember Us This Way' from A Star is Born. Khalea Lynee performed her rendition of 'Love Like This' though this R&B performance wasn't her best, her vocals made it stand out.
Tomorrow when the series returns for the results, it's going to be sad to see someone leave. And with John's team being strong, it will be a sad goodbye to whoever gets sent home.
'The Voice' season 17 airs every Monday and Tuesday night only on NBC. Check your local listings for more information.
