Do You Have The Voice?

Hey everyone! I hope you all are having a great Sunday! I've been spending my Sunday in my bed watching NBC's The Voice.

If you have seen American Idol or X Factor is has some of the same components. The Voice has four celebrity judges which are Adam Levine, CeeLo Green, Christina Aguilera, and Blake Shelton. The judges each get 12 people on their team to help mentor through the process. The coaches get their team by going through blind auditions. The blind auditions are when the contestant sings to the judges while their backs are turned. If the judge like what they hear they will hit their button and then turn around to see the contestant. If more than one judge turns around then that contestant gets to choose who they want as their coach. Throughout the season the contestants have a battle round where they are paired with another person from their team and sing a song together. Their coach will then eliminate one of them. If a contestant is eliminated in the battle round the other coaches can us one of their two steals to safe the contestant by putting them on their team. After the battle rounds, America can vote on who they want to continue in the competition.

I personally like The Voice better than some of the other vocal competitions because The Voice give background of the contestant before they sing so you know how they got to where they are now. I also like the fact that it is based on their voice and not what they look like. I think that some of the shows eliminate people that have good vocals because they don't fit the celebrity mold. Finally, I like that the coaches teach them how to become better singers. The coaches don't just stop there either they keep in touch with members of their team after they are eliminated.

The Voice is a show for everyone because of the wide range of vocal genres. It is on every Monday and Thursday at 7 p.m. if you are wanting to check it out!
