Fw: The Voice’ Season 27 Episode 13 recap: MAY 5
Who do you have picked this season win??‘The Voice’ Season 27 Episode 13 recap: Michael and John narrow their teams from 5 to 2 in ‘Playoffs Part 2’- ?
May 5, 2025
?Season 27 continued the "Playoffs" stage of the competition on Monday. In this round, each coach brings their team of five to the stage for a single performance that will determine which two move on the live shows. By the end of the round's 20 performances, only eight artists will remain in the competition. Mega Mentors?Sheryl Crow?and?LeAnn Rimes?assisted Team?Michael 叠耻产濒é?and Team??in the rehearsals leading up to the May 5 episode. On the April 28 "" episode,?Kelsea Ballerini?moved forward with?Alanna Lynise?and?Iris Herrera?for the live shows.?Adam Levine?advanced?Kolby Cordell?and??Lucia Flores-Wiseman?as the representatives for his team. Team?叠耻产濒éThe five performances for Michael's team were?Kaiya Hamilton?singing "If You Love Somebody Set Them Free" by?Sting,?Angie Rey?with "How Do I Live" by LeAnn,?Jadyn Cree?doing "99 Red Balloons" by?Nena,?Barry Jean Fontenot?on "Until I Found You" by?Stephen Sanchez, and?Adam David?performing "I Shall Be Released" by?Bob Dylan. During rehearsals with Sheryl, they helped Kaiya rework the song away from the original version into more of her own style, urged Angie to get "out of your head" because it was noticeable and convinced her to do the chorus in Spanish, and thought Jadyn returned to the roots of 80s punk with her "unique" sound. Sheryl wanted Barry to approach the song with "tenderness and urgency" and helped Adam know how to confront stage fright. After seeing the final stage performances, the other coaches gave Michael advice to aid in his decision. Adam was "amazed" by Kaiya's rendition and gave her the "most improved player award" and Kelsea said she "ate and left no crumbs." John thought Angie achieved a song that requires "pipes," Adam liked Jadyn because she's "good old fashioned pop rock," Kelsea sees the confidence growth in Barry and how he "believes he's supposed to be here," and Adam admitted the coaches that didn't turn for him originally messed up. Team LegendThe five artists on Team Legend were?Bryson Battle?with "pov" by?Ariana Grande,?BD.ii?on "All My Life" by?K-Ci & JoJo,?Olivia Kuper Harris?performing "What Was I Made For?" by?Billie Eilish,?Ari Camille?doing "Rain" by SWV, and?Renzo?singing "Too Sweet" by?Hozier. Getting to see them at rehearsal, LeAnn thought Bryson was on the cusp of "understanding his range" and helped him open up his vocal more, wanted BD.ii to "project out" and then helped him "beef up" his falsetto, advised Olivia to be "vulnerable" in her physicality because it wasn't working when thy could see her acting, and wanted Ari to bring more sensuality and complimented her "raspiness." LeAnn liked how "hard" into rock Renzo was taking his song. Following the performances, Michael cracked a joke about wanting to steal Bryson and Adam called it "technically crazy." Kelsea noticed "the ease" that BD.ii performs with, Michael loved seeing Olivia "get into character" and thinks she can do anything, and her former coach Adam told Ari she sounded "amazing." Kelsea was interested by Renzo's fusing of rock and soul and projected him being a big star. At the end of the night, after decisions were final, Carson Daly informed the coaches that they'd each get to employ the Super Save and bring a third artist to the live shows. Who the coaches picked is to be revealed next week. The updated teams are: ?—?Bryson Battle,?Renzo ?—?Adam David,?Jadyn Cree ?—?Alanna Lynise,?Iris Herrera ?—?Kolby Cordell,?Lucia Flores-Wiseman The four-time Emmy Award-winning musical competition series?The Voice?is in its 27th season featuring?five stages of competition: Blind Auditions, Battle Rounds, Knockouts, Playoffs and Live Performance Shows. In the coaches' chairs, Michael is the defending champion after winning Season 26. He is joined by John, in his 10th season, and Kelsea, competing for the first time. Adam rejoined the panel of coaches for his 17th season after taking a hiatus following Season 16.

Inspiring Quotes for Tuesday, May 06, 2025
Compassion is an unstable emotion. It needs to be translated into action, or it withers. Susan Sontag
!n her 2013 essay collection “Regarding the Pain of Others,” author Susan Sontag reflected on the ways people respond to violent imagery. She made the argument that it isn’t the quantity of images that desensitizes us to the suffering of others, but our feelings of fear and helplessness that cause us to shut down and turn away. She suggested that compassion without action is not sustainable; it’s a self-serving emotion that “proclaims our innocence as well as our impotence.” By examining our privilege and the ways in which it may be linked to the suffering of others, we take the first step in effecting meaningful change.
