The Voice Battle Round performances are always brutal … because they’re so good! The singers feed off each other, yet some must get cut.
It just doesn’t seem fair, but there is the steal involved – a coach can swoop in and take a discarded participant – and it’s great entertainment.
This is part of what has made this show unique among all the reality and singing competitions out there, and Season 9 is no exception …
