Tuesday night, Pryor Baird became just the second contestant to turn four chairs on Season 14 of The Voice.

By midnight EST, the 35-year-old from Nashville became the first Season 14 singer to top an iTunes chart.

Pryor covered “I Don’t Need No Doctor” by Ray Charles and opted to join Team Blake Shelton after hearing the pitches from all four coaches.

Turns out fans are pretty taken with his version of the song too. At noon Wednesday, it was number one on iTunes blues chart.

All five songs available from Tuesday’s show are charting.

In fact, Molly Stevens, 34, of Nashville, became one of the first Season 14 contestants to crack the overall singles chart on iTunes with her cover of Patti Griffin’s “Heavenly Days.” That song was sitting at 171 on the Top 200 as of noon est.

The only other Season 14 contestant to make that chart so far is Drew Cole with his rendition of “Sex and Candy.” At noon, he was 187 on the Top 200.

You can check out all the rankings from Tuesday’s show below. Please keep in mind that it’s difficult to compare one genre chart to another.

The country and pop charts are typically more competitive than the blues, rock or R&B charts. So the fact that teenager Jaclyn Lovey has hit number 63 on the pop chart with “Can’t Help Falling in Love,” for instance, is impressive.
