Wow!
Wow. Wow, wow, wow.
That was so incredible.
I mean, both of you are mind-blowing in your own way.
I mean, Lennon, we are all fascinated by you
because you're so original.
Your tone is just so unique.
But when Tanner started, I was like, "Wait a minute."
I am dead in love with you.
You are just magical.
It's hard to not want to just keep watching you.
If I had to choose right now,
I would say Tanner.
I really appreciate that.
[ Cheers and applause ]
John: Really, both amazing.
I was just going back and forth like,
"Oh. Oh, okay. Eh! Yes, that, too."
[ Laughs ] I know. I heard you.
Yes.
That song has an interesting story for me
because I wrote "All of Me" like 10 years ago.
My manager was like, "You should write a song to Chrissy..."
'cause we were about to get married at the time,
"...that's kind of like 'She's Always a Woman.'"
And this song is so beautiful.
It's so well-written and inspired me
to write the song that changed my life.
Oh, I didn't know that.
Cool.
[ Cheers and applause ]
And hearing you two sing it, it was just magical.
And I just felt like you were making it your own.
And I think I would lean
just ever so slightly toward Tanner.
I appreciate that.
Congratulations to you both
on such a wonderful performance.
Lennon, your voice is just wonderful
because you sing so high.
That performance was really good.
It suited you very well.
Tanner, the subject in the song
would change, and you changed.
You got more serious, and then you would smile.
To be as young as you are, you've got great stage presence.
Thank you.
Good luck there, buddy.
[ Laughter ]
Daly: Thank you, Coaches.
Alright, Niall, you've got a big decision to make here.
I think this was always gonna be a great battle
with the difference in their two voices.
The way Lennon can sing up there with such control.
And, Lennon, your tone is just so captivating.
And, Tanner, like, some of those little riffy, flairy things
at the end of sentences are just so beautiful to listen to.
The control that you have in such a short space of time
is -- is impressive.
This is one of the battles where I've been, like,
really battling with myself,
and now I regret putting you in the same pairing.
Daly: Niall, tough one here for you.
Who won this battle?
[ Dramatic music plays ]
If I was to go with my gut, what makes me super excited...
♪♪
...the winner of the battle is Lennon.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Lennon, congratulations!
You are moving on to the knockouts for Team Niall.
Niall: Something deep down in my gut said Lennon.
I've always been super attracted to really interesting tones.
There's nobody in this competition
that has a tone even remotely near him,
and that makes him a very, very dark horse.
Thank you for believing in me, my friend.
Thank you.
Very good job.
That was tough. Very tough.
Lennon: It's up to me now to dive deep and give it my all
to prove Niall made the right decision.
Coaches, let me remind you that Tanner is available to steal.
And we've got a steal!
We've got a second steal!
John Legend and Gwen both use their steals for Tanner!
Congratulations, Tanner.
That didn't take long.
Not at all.
John, what did you hear in Tanner?
I just really believe that Tanner just has a magical voice.
I loved the way you carried yourself on stage,
and I think America is gonna love you.
So, I feel like we could go pretty far together.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Thank you so much.
Daly: Alright. Gwen?
You have something in you that you're showing us
that we want more of.
What I could do to help you bring even more of that out
is put a mirror up and highlight, like, yes, do that.
And I'm a mother of three boys.
I have a son about your age, and he's a singer.
Like, I feel like I could just hug you into the winning spot.
Please be on Team Gwen.
[ Laughs ]
Please.
Daly: Alright, Tanner, it is up to you, my friend.
This is the hardest choice I think I'll ever make.
Oh, gosh.
Listen, this is my second, like, beg.
Come on.
I know!
Tanner, the power is yours.
[ Audience shouting ]
Come on.
Ah!
♪♪
I...
I-I choose Gwen.
Oh, my God!
Daly: Gwen Stefani steals Tanner...
♪♪
...from Team Niall and beats out John in that steal!
Gwen: I've had my eye on Tanner since the blinds.
Being his age and being able to command the stage
and have that kind of confidence was so exciting to see.
And I beat John -- John Legend,
and I-I can't believe I have Tanner on my team.
It's so exciting.
So good.
Thank you so much.
I cannot believe I got two steals.
