The contestants each did one coach-selected cover. They at least looked like they were having fun. It was called "Boots On," and was about, like, wearing boots or something. Blake Shelton also got to sing one duet, with Craig Wayne Boyd. It's nice that he wanted to make the evening all about showcasing the contestants, though. That was part of a film that Adam Levine was in.
Elton John!" Damien sounded great, though.Īnd then for his duet with Matt McAndrew, Adam had Matt sing… an Adam Levine song. First, are they really trying to fashion Damien as the 2014 version of Clay Aiken? (Side note: OH NO now I am totally going to be watching Clay Aiken videos all afternoon.) And secondly, you, Adam Levine, are no "Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Where Adam really lost it was singing with Damien on "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" amidst what I can only presume is an illegal amount of dry ice. My exact note was, "Falsetto up the wazoo." At this point and later, when Chris was singing about sexing ladies while swiveling in his very tight pants, I did start to worry that Adam might have become TOO big of a role model, but I hold faith that his solid Pittsburgh upbringing will check any wayward douchey tendencies that emerge. He and Chris Jamison sing a Robin Thicke song about boning a lady (NOT "Blurred Lines," thank goodness), and for obvious reasons their voices blend quite well.
The concept of "Coach Duets" IN THEORY is a really excellent idea, but WHO could have imagined this particular scenario when dreaming it up? (Other than a sadist.) (Or Adam Levine himself.) (E.g., a sadist.) Still, as the Buddha told us, life is suffering, and if we're going to get the marvel that is Matt McAndrew singing his original song, "Wasted Love," then we must face life's trials with grace and courage.įor the most part, Adam's duets with his coachees were fine.
Which means we get to hear Adam duet with three of the four finalists. Pharrell and Gwen Stefani got off to strong starts on The Voice, yet somehow tonight we've reached Part One of the finale, the performances, and Adam Levine is coach to three of the four finalists.
