-What?!
-What's your name? Where you from? Talk to us.
-My name's JB Somers. I'm 31 years old,
originally from Montgomery, Alabama,
and now I currently live in Nashville, Tennessee.
-Yeah!
-God, I just love that you did Joni.
We were both back there, like... -Thank you.
-Like, your tone is incredible. -Yeah.
-Thank you so much. -At any stage of the game,
I would have pressed my button, like, if I was capable.
Like -- -Is your team filling up?
-My team's filling up, too. -Is it?
I didn't think you had anybody at all today.
-[ Laughs ] No, I-I -- -He missed out. It's fine.
-He missed out on this. -He missed out,
because when we turned around --
you know, when I turned around first --
Do you remember that time? -Oh, I remember.
I remember. -Yeah, I just --
when I turned around, it was even more beautiful
to watch you perform it. You just, like, exude
so much empathy and emotion, just all of it.
And then your eyes were closed for a lot of it.
It was cool because it was intimate.
I would love to have you on my team.
I have no one like you on my team.
-Thank you. You are gonna make it
to the finale regardless of which team
you're choosing here.
It is a beautiful gift that you've been given.
-Thank you so much. -Welcome to "The Voice."
-Thank you. -I really want you on my team.
It did take me a little while to turn around
because of how particular I am
about hearing people cover Joni Mitchell.
Really, I was just waiting to hear your high register.
That's one of the things I respected the most
about your performance, was you were just dynamically
showing us your different ranges,
and your approach to it was very just strategic.
I know she already said she doesn't have anybody
on her team like you... -No, I don't know
if you do, either. -...but I really don't have
anybody on my team like you. -No, wait, I didn't lie.
I don't, yeah. -Yeah, but I believe --
I believe Chance more when he says that.
-JB, one of my very good friends
covered that same Joni Mitchell song.
And his initials are JB -- James Blake.
-James Blake. I'd love to give you
the platform to be able to just be you on TV.
But like Kelly said, whoever you go with,
you'll probably make it to the finale
for sure, if you get on Team Chance, though.
[ Laughter ] -I'm just saying, I'll not only
get you to the finale, I also have like a 50/50 chance
that I've been here and that I win.
I'm pretty good at winning this show.
-It's the young blood, though, sometimes that, you know --
-Oh, my God! -I don't -- I'm just saying.
-Ohh! -Kelly's lost before, too.
I've never lost. You know what I mean?
[ Laughter ]
-[ Laughing ] That was actually good.
-She loses like half the time. [ Laughter ]
-I just want to tell you why I was an idiot and didn't turn.
My team is nearly full to the brim,
and I had someone very similar.
And that's literally the only reason I didn't turn.
-Seems arbitrary. Seems like an arbitrary reason.
[ Laughter ] -Hey!
-I'm just saying, I mean... -When did you turn on me?
-What are you talking about? When you read my notes aloud
to everybody. That's when.
I didn't turn around, because I just didn't hit my button
'cause I didn't want to hear no. [ Laughter ]
-You didn't wanna hear me say no?
-But look at me.
I've been turned down, and I'm still going,
'cause that's how much I believe in you!
-Tenacity. Tenacity.
-I do not get defeated. I keep going.
That's who I am as a coach, Chance.
-What? [ Laughter ]
-Dang. -Wow.
-I can't allow her to -- to act like she's not gonna,
you know, have great success with whoever she picks.
-I am. I have a team. I have a good team.
-I really, really -- This is my last thing
that I was gonna say. Please?
[ Laughter ]
-JB, who do you pick as your coach?
[ Audience shouting ] -Oh, man.
[ Audience chanting "Kelly!" ]
-I want to say thank you so much...
but I'm gonna go with Kelly.
-What?! Ah!
[ Cheers and applause ]
