'The Voice' Season 18 returned on Tuesday night for Night 2 of the blind auditions and Blake Shelton might have snagged a winner on his team. 

Season 18 seems to be off to a good start with fans and viewers liking the coaches' dynamics and their way of choosing the singers they want on their team. Unlike previous seasons where fans found at least one fault with the judges, there seems to be none of it this year as Kelly Clarkson, John Legend and Blake Shelton return to their seats alongside newbie coach Nick Jonas. 

That aside, the final audition of the night left all four judges wanting a particular singer on their team after an emotional audition. Toneisha Harris, who had intended to audition on 'The Voice' eight years ago, revealed she had to put her dreams on hold after her son was diagnosed with leukemia. Now with her son cured and healthy in the second year of college, she is back to fulfill her dreams.



 

Performing her rendition of 'I Want To Know What Love Is' she was by far the best singer to grace the stage on Tuesday night. Singing a stunning alto range, all four coaches couldn't help but turn their chairs for Toneisha. Blown away by her performance, Nick shares that it is one of the strongest vocals he has heard. Blake rendered a passionate speech as to why she should join her team. John and Kelly shared that no matter who she picks, any coach would be lucky to have her on their team. 

Having to make a decision, ultimately, Toneisha chose Blake as her coach. Taking to Twitter after her performance, fans think Blake has a winner in his team now. "She picked the best Coach. Blake Shelton all the way," a fan wrote. 

"@blakeshelton #VoicePremiere a bit early but you may very well have the winner with Toneisha!!!!" a fan shared. Another added, "@blakeshelton #VoicePremiere you just secured the championship with Toneisha! Congrats to the both of you!" 

"@blakeshelton #VoicePremiere I think Toneisha will go all the way in this competition and she will go all the way with you. And she may even win this competition as well. You have talented artists on your team," a fan shared.

Adding to that another said, "@blakeshelton #VoicePremiere Toneisha is going to be your next winner." 

"@blakeshelton #VoicePremiere Blake just won the voice with Toneisha!! Woohoo!!!!" another fan added. 

'The Voice' Season 18 airs every Monday and Tuesday night only on NBC. Check your local listings for more information.
