andi and alex and chance-500The twins from Green Bay have done it again.

Two rounds have been completed on The Voice.

And during both rounds, Andi Peot and Alex Peot — performing simply as Andi & Alex — have scored the most popular cover song on iTunes.

Looking for an early Season 9 favorite? Andi & Alex might be it, though a duo has never won The Voice and only one (The Swon Brothers) has ever made the finals.

This round, the twins had a helping hand in the form of battle round partner Chance Pena.

In fact, while they were advancing to the knockout round on Team Adam, he was so impressive that he wound up being stolen by Blake Shelton.

Meanwhile, their combined cover of “Wherever You Will Go” had climbed to number 16 on iTunes’ singles chart by noon the day after it was performed, easily the best performance for a cover song from the battle round.

The song eventually climbed higher, but noon the day after a performance show is typically when The Voice ends voting once live shows begin.

Of 24 battle round songs, nine cracked the iTunes Top 200. Here’s the list, in order of how high each song was on the chart at noon the day after it was featured on The Voice.

#48: Barrett Baber and Dustin Christensen with “Walking in Memphis.” Barrett advanced for Team Blake; Dustin was stolen by Adam Levine.

#59: Mark Hood and Celeste Betton with “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough.” Mark advanced on Team Pharrell; Celeste was eliminated.

#91: Korin Bukowski and Chase Kerby with “Samson.” Korin advanced for Team Gwen; Chase was eliminated.

#117: Jordan Smith and Regina Love with “Like I Can.” Jordan advanced for Team Adam; Regina was stolen by Gwen Stefani.

#140: Chris Crump and Krista Hughes with “When I Get Where I’m Going.” Chris advanced for Team Blake; Krista was eliminated.

#171: Ellie Lawrence and Tim Atlas with “Sweater Weather.” Ellie advanced for Team Gwen; Tim was stolen by Pharrell Williams.

#187: Amy Vachal and Jubal and Amanda with “To Love Somebody.” Amy advanced for Team Pharrell; Jubal and Amanda were eliminated.

#198: Viktor Kiraly and Cassandra Robertson with “Nobody Knows.” Viktor advanced for Team Adam; Cassandra was eliminated.
