Everything goes better with Adele.
The proof was right there when Savannah Brister and Maelyn Jarmon tackled an Adele classic for Monday night’s opening Battle round of NBC’s The Voice.
The Team Legend contestants showed off their range with a tender cover of “When We Were Young,” lifted from Adele’s all-conquering 25.
Afterwards, judge Blake Shelton enthused about Jarmon hitting the bar, again, and lauded Brister’s “incredible” performance. John Legend said they were “excellent across the board.”
Sadly there could be only one victor. Legend made his decision based on who he thought would go further in the competition. Check out what happened below and keep watching for news on a “comeback” for the unlucky loser.
