The voting rounds on The Voice are just two weeks away.

And tonight, we’ll start finding out which Season 15 contestants will be singing for viewers’ votes in the live playoffs.

It’s knockout round time for Season 15. Thirty-one singers remain; 24 will advance.

That means the odds of making it to live playoffs if you’ve made it this far are pretty good.

The Voice has already revealed the knockout match-ups courtesy of a cute little video in which the remaining Season 15 contestants try to guess the names of Mariah Carey songs based on emojis.

But if you don’t want to bother watching, I’m listing them below, with links that take you to a profile of each contestant.

The Voice has also leaked video of the Team Adam Levine knockout match between Radha and Reagan Strange.

Reagan, just 13, makes a nice emotional connection to “Dancing on My Own.” Radha, known to this point for her energetic stage presence, proves she can belt out ballads too, singing “I’ll Be There.”

I’ll go on record right now as saying it’ll be a crime if Radha goes anywhere but on to the live playoffs after delivering that vocal.

The other things you’ll need to know about the knockout round …

* Mariah will be the guest adviser for all four teams. That will diminish my viewing pleasure significantly.

* Cody Ray Raymond has left the show because of personal matters. That means Team Kelly has just seven members and will have one three-singer knockout round match.

* The singers will be performing solos. In Season 14, that meant songs of their own choosing.

* Each coach gets one steal during this round.

* Each coach also gets one save, meaning after declaring one singer the winner, a coach can still rescue the losing singer from elimination.

* If a singer gets a save and a steal, the singer gets to choose which coach to choose.

Here are those knockout round matchups.
