Lynnea Moorer is living a charmed life on The Voice.

Landing in the bottom three Tuesday night, she found herself in a three-way Twitter showdown with Sandy Redd and Tyke James.

Sandy is a veteran performer from Chicago who turned four chairs with her blind audition.

Tyke is the surfing singer-songwriter from Hawaii who soared on iTunes after Monday’s show with his unique take on “(Everything I Do) I Do It For You”

But as the Twitter vote came in, it was clear Lynnea was the fan favorite.

When The Voice took the vote graphic down, she had 49 percent of the tally to 40 percent for Tyke and 11 percent for Sandy Redd.

And so Lynnea, 19 and from California, advanced to next week’s Top 11 show.

Lynnea is a product of The Voice’s first-ever Comeback Stage, which offered six artists who didn’t turn a chair with their blind auditions a chance to make it back to the live shows.

Lynnea won two rounds of on-line competition, then a Twitter vote last week to make the Top 13.

Here are Voice Views’ grades for Tuesday’s Twitter save performance.

Sandy Redd, “Believer” — Weak start for Sandy. Is her mic on? She was totally drowned out by the background music. Then the song swells and so does her big voice. There must be some technical problems here. Her vocals aren’t coming through very clear. But she’s still one hell of a performer. And easily the most dynamic vocalist among these three. Grade: B

Tyke James, “Home” — So tons of folks downloaded or streamed his song, but the votes didn’t follow. Not disappointed to see Tyke in the bottom three. He’s the weakest singer among the Top 13. And this mumbled vocal isn’t going to change by opinion about that. That vocal should earn him the song’s wish. Grade: C–

Lynnea Moorer, “If I Ain’t Got You” — Those white eyebrows were ill advised. But Lynnea is doing better vocally than I thought she might in this pressure-packed situation. She isn’t on the same level as Sandy Redd, but she’s delivering this with some sass. Grade: C+
