BWW Recap: THE VOICE Top 10 Performs, Everyone's Out To Make An Impression

Time for the Top 10 to perform for your votes! This week is the same as last, each artist will perform, and then you can vote via phone, text (if you have Sprint), online, or by buying the single on iTunes. Tomorrow, two people will go home regardless of what team they're on. Currently, Team Blake and Team Adam have kept their three performers, while both Team Christina and Team CeeLo have lost one.

Austin Jenckes starts off the night, singing "Your Love" by The Outfield, hoping to finally have a "breakout song". Blake said after the performance it was in fact the breakout performance that he's been waiting for, and that he's finally shown what artist he is on the show. Both Blake and Christina talked about the build of the song and to going from a slower start to a big finish. Adam's only critique of the song was that he wanted to hear more range from Austin. Overall, all of the judges were incredibly supportive of Austin's "breakout" song.

Jacquie Lee was up next, singing "Clarity" by Zedd, showing off a softer side to her voice than the rocker songs she sang the past two weeks. Christina said that it was beautiful to see her dynamic. However, both Blake and Cee Lo noticed a few weak spots saying they wanted to see her in her comfort zone, belting songs like she had. On a complete other topic, Adam praised everything she's done with how young and how little experience she has.

Will Champlin was up next, singing with "Love Me Again" by John Newman, hoping to show off his range. Adam called Will a "testament to why you should keep trying" mentioning how many teams he had been on. He said the song was right in his wheelhouse. Christina said that he came into his own with the song and he was a great person, having knowing him for a little bit when he was on her team, and that despite being passed around on teams, he's now one of the last men standing, and she loved that.

Caroline Pennell was up next, singing "Leaving On a Jet Plane" by John Denver. CeeLo said that he was happy that she had her grandest opportunity and that this song allowed her to show that, but CeeLo said he felt the song overpowered her at points. Adam said it was great to see her pick a song that showed her emotional journey that she was going on.

Cole Vosbury was up next with "To Be With You" by Mr. Big. Blake said the performance made him so happy, and that he sang the "daylights" out of the song, and he loved how acoustic he made. Adam said that he felt that he loved the move from the piano to playing guitar, and that he loved the song and that he loved how acoustic it was as well.

Next up was Tessanne Chin, one of the frontrunners of the competition, singing a soulful song "If I Were Your Woman" by Gladys Knight. Adam talked about Tessanne's apprehension of the singing the song, and how it "solidified" her as a major contender on the show. Christina wanted to see more songs like this, and show more elements to her voice, and to show off her Jamaican accent.

Ray Bourdeaux sang "You Are The Best Thing" by Ray LaMontagne Blake said he rattled everyone cage, and that now he's captured everyone's attention. Christina said she sees that he's the most improved, where before she "didn't know" who he was, and now he's found himself in blues and soul.

James Wolpert was up next, singing "Without You" by Harry Nilsson. Adam called it a "desperate, incredible song" and said that he managed to take a song and becomes his. Christina called his singing "clean", and called him a multidimensional singer, her only criticism was his pitch, but continued to call him a clean artist, and that she loved his voice.

Kat Robichaud sang "We Belong" by Pat Benatar, channeling CeeLo's theatrics into her performance. CeeLo said it was "exhilitarting" to see everything that Kat is. CeeLo said that she did everything right. Adam said that everything was elegant and that everyone has been waiting to see from Kat.

Matthew Schuler was the final performance of the evening, singing "Beneath Your Beautiful" by Labyrinth and Emeli Sande. Christina explained how the room feels after Matthew sings, and even goes so far as to say that the audience doesn't care what she has to say. She also says she doesn't write notes, which is rare for her. Adam called the performance "no less than amazing, which he always is."
