Top 10 night on The Voice didn’t yield quite as much iTunes success as Top 12 night.
This time, only two songs cracked the Top 10 on the singles chart. And only two songs topped genre charts.
But when every member of your Top 10 — including the singers who would eventually be eliminated — have their songs in the Top 100 on the overall singles chart … well, that’s still pretty impressive.
The remaining eight return to the stage tonight. And the mentors will all be former Voice coaches — Gwen Stefani, Usher and CeeLo Green. Here are the weekly Voice View rankings.
For a look at where all the contestants stand on social media, head here.
1. Sawyer Fredericks, Team Pharrell (1): Yup, someone (teammate Koryn Hawthorne) topped him on iTunes for the first time. And he’s been more steady than spectacular in the finals. But he’s still the heavy favorite to win Season 8.
2. Koryn Hawthorne, Team Pharrell (9): I have been under-rating this young woman big time. Anyone who can perform three songs as diverse as she has as well as she has deserves a spot in the finals if she keeps it up. And Voice viewers love surprisingly superb young singers. Remember how well Danielle Bradbery and Jacquie Lee did on the show?
3. Kimberly Nichole, Team Christina (4): Because she performed first, I think people overlooked how good Kimberly was last week. The vocal gymnastics she pulled off were pretty darn amazing, and she’s a great showwoman, too. An upexpected crowd-pleaser of a song choice is called for this time around.
4. Meghan Linsey, Team Blake (3): She’s the show’s other veteran female performer, and the fact that she slips a spot is a reflection of how good Kimberly is, not of anything wrong with Meghan’s performance last week. Hey, Blake, how about another country-tinged song for those Voice viewers who love anything country?
5. Hannah Kirby, Team Blake (7): All three members of Team Blake are still around, and Hannah is just flat-out fun when she performs. With the way she commands the stage and those funky dance moves of her … well, I would never, ever let her slow it down with a ballad, as least not until the singers are performing more than once per show.
6. India Carney, Team Christina (8): India closed last week’s show in brilliant fashion when she covered Whitney Houston’s “Run to You.” But the song only checked in at number 45 on iTunes, which tells me fans still aren’t connecting the way they should be with this wonderfully talented singer.
7. Joshua Davis, Team Adam (2): I really expected Joshua to be Season 8’s version of Tony Lucca or Will Champlin, but it hasn’t worked out that way yet. He needed the instant save to survive Top 10 night. And, remember, on this show, only one contestant has ever been saved on consecutive weeks.
8. Corey Kent White, Team Blake (5): Blake keeps giving Corey bad-boy songs to sing, and he just doesn’t look like a country outlaw. Nor has he excelled with them. But the fact that he’s the only country singer in the finals works to his advantage.
