[@jwin1986]

Rooting for you man. Amazing job

[@nicole81678]

Well deserved!! You are amazingly talented!!! Easily one of the best battles. You both sounded incredible together, I didn't want it to end!

[@lynnyager1486]

D Smooth what can be said really ? Just omg, wow, unreal, star, artist, SANGER and the list goes on! U guys slayed that song to infinity and beyond ! Kelly was right with everything she said!

[@dashriprock8596]

You were great!

[@keyondavis7241]

That “push and pull” part was so tight and smooth.

[@malakahbanathyasharahla2302]

Yes both have dynamic singing voices 👍💯💪✊

[@MiklehMouse]

Frfr 💯!!

[@tirshasmith5999]

This was not a battle, it was a masterpiece.

[@bluiib8227]

I agree

[@KGMsc88]

I have never seen a season where the battles basically are not battles, they’re just duets. This is amazing.

[@golden22h8]

YESS normally they are like battling singing on top of each other but i love how this time its duets. it acc helps you hear their voices and the dynamic and talent each person has.

[@heathercarroll3098]

You can't pick one. These 2 need to be a group. Their vibe is totally in sync like they've performed this together 100's of times.

[@TheDivayenta]

Marvin snd Tammi

[@b89atchison]

Weeks later, I am STILL listening to this duet. I swear the "battles" are my favorite part of the show! So good!

[@btrix1968]

The fact that Ali is deaf but can still sing so perfectly 🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@treiskushrenada6332]

ALI IS DEAF!?!?!😦😨😱🤯😵

[@ernoswife]

This is one of the GREATEST duets that I have seen ever. And I've watched every season of the voice!

[@userunknown1578]

D. Smooth was awesome!!! He definitely deserved that playoff pass.

[@fatizo2254]

Yeah ! He's voice is awesome .. so good to hear👂🏻

[@unpeudevin3837]

Spoilerrrr

[@lisaschaffel266]

So amazing 🤩

[@kathleencreamer6648]

Shhhhhhh!

[@S2creatorr]

Totally agree!!!!!!

[@Lawwwwren]

One of the best versions of Allen Stone’s Unaware I’ve ever heard

[@ambraosadiaye1639]

Same

[@jordanhaller8973]

Check out Mia Pfirman’s cover of this. She was on a few years ago

[@Ingrid.M.C]

​@@jordanhaller8973 and Hannah Huston 🛐

[@n.n.n.1603]

Not even close lol

[@xkiaradanielle]

Yeah I’d love to have this version as it’s own cover song.

[@tinarigby780]

D. Smooth and Ali both of you made me shed a tear you both are fabulous.

[@trueworshipper8086]

PHENOMENAL PERFORMANCE! By far the best battle duet I've seen in the years that the voice has been on. The harmonies, timing, chemistry of D Smooth & Ali! They should definitely consider a collaboration on a album together. I can guarantee you it would break record purchases! I'm a fan of them both!!

[@jrbland18]

THEY NEED TO BE IN THE STUDIO RECORDING AN ALBUM. YOU GUYS SOUND AMAZING.

[@paulavasko4633]

Agreed!

[@tmrdrz]

I would love to hear that duet!!!❤

[@ebonysteel9158]

The fact Ali is not already signed is mind boggling to me. Her lower register control and runs are angelic.😇

[@viciousLUA]

Opening note from Ali was…. absolutely divine ✨

[@bluiib8227]

I need them to sing more songs together cause this was unreal❤❤❤😊

[@LexTVi]

What Kelly said about D. Smooth is exactly what I was thinking. I haven’t heard an R&B guy sing like that among this gen of singers and it’s so refreshing. Big up’s to Ali as well. Clean strong performance from start to finish. ❤

[@jacobmccain8794]

Man, D. Smooth meant every single word! The passion he gives when he sings was everything! He really surprised me here! All his adlibs felt like they were coming from his soul and falling out his mouth! I knew Ali would EAT! All her choices her incredible and vibe is everything! I think here I just felt D. Smooth more, but I knew after what Kelly said to ALI, she was 100% picking her. I would’ve been shook! I love that Kelly was smart and used her pass! She’s right, he is hungry for it!

[@charlesmcneill1425]

One of my favorite songs it's so heart felt with passion. D Smooth incredible he put his heart and soul in that song.wish I could sing less than half that good lol😊

[@rasalove6669]

Chance reactions are what I live for! Such a great addition to the show! (Niall too!)

[@kembasamuel9817]

I hope that you two record together. Such good music

[@Ctayr6248]

Can you two just do a record together? I promise I’d have it on repeat every day! Y’all both have such cool r&b and neo-soul vibes. Can’t wait to see more!

[@kvmh7396]

Before Kelly even said it I actually thought about D Smooth “wow I haven’t heard a voice like that since 90’s r&b” and it’s so true! He gives that Joe, 112, Jagged Edge energy

[@tybrashasimpson4319]

I was literally thinking the same before she said it too.

[@wabi-sabiyogaandwellnessce10]

Yep! For real!

[@marhcubos8205]

Yes yes!

[@MzHunieeBee]

Makes me think of Diddys Making the Band tryouts! He’s defiantly got that soul

[@paulastephenson1862]

Either of these two could sing the phone book and I'd buy the CD. Incredibly talented!

[@noivaswright]

Yessssss Ali and D Smooth. Both of y’all came to EAT, and you both ATE WELL. Those runs and harmonies from both of you were GIVING. So so glad to be on this season with you extremely soulful talented people. Congratulations on both making it to the next round. #Season23

[@msusana188]

Can’t wait to see you perform!!!!

[@ZoOnTheYT]

Diddy has entered the chat!

[@MSomo526]

This happened❤ The fact this exists in the world is magical. Love you both! D. Smooth you had me the entire time!! ❤️❤️

[@peacetea1001]

ugh they need more rnb soul performances on this show it always works so damn well and puts on a show- what great singers both of them and obsessed with this song

[@Mahzinhaprr]

The best performance i've heard this season ... Gosh was incredible

[@CameronJmom]

This performance was EVERYTHING ❤

[@brianarsuaga5008]

This was INCREDIBLE, entering a rare echelon of battle rounds that make both sides sound amazing. It's impossible, listening to this, to pick a side. This performance was more than the sum of its parts.

[@robertantonnyc]

both incredibly soulful vocalists. Great harmony and use of dynamics. Chills! D is more demonstrative with the begging and pleading, stage presence. - So You Wanna Be A Singer

[@alisalavine1052]

Okay, my friend. That was one of the best battles ever on the Voice. Seriously, they both could be on the radio right this second topping the charts. D is smooth like melted chocolate. And ALI, I don't even know what to say. This was REE DICULOUS! Meh, I kinda liked it.

[@NorthernSpartan]

D´s voice reminds me a bit of John Legend for some reason. So definately up there. Ali´s voice just dont make sense what he does with it

[@zivapalmer5775]

@@NorthernSpartan John Legend wishes he could sound that good. Flawless....John (so called) Legend is meh.

[@the2006mvp]

Shows the difference between soul and "blue eyed" soul...IMO...but great job to them both!

[@poeticpoems1234]

They are both great and need to be selling!!! OH I could listen to ALI ALLLLL day and recapture the innocence of my youth!😊Ali is phenomenal! Soooo gifted🙏🏼

[@singtorres6049]

Wow, their voices were made for this song. I love how D Smooth improved a lot from the blinds. He definitely deserved that playoff pass😊

[@copperpenny0209]

I miss 90's music. That was the best duet I've heard in a long time.

[@randipearson4930]

I’m a country fan but this was absolutely the best duet and vocal performance this season !! One of the best I’ve seen on this show !! So happy for both of them !! They deserve to be on this show !! Hell they deserve to make it to the finale !! ❤

[@nicolegordon129]

This was one of the best battle performances this season.

[@thomaswschaller]

The duets this season are insanely good.

[@MiklehMouse]

Both came hungry and they both ATE!!! Phenomenal performance ALI and D Smooth!!! I didn't want it to end.

[@alohadave13]

I've lost count on how many times I've watched this performance. Absolutely AMAZING!

[@Kathy-zx5bu]

This is by far the best performance ever on The Voice! I have listened to this probably 25 times. They need to sing together on an album. So, so good. Thank you for the pleasure and joy you have brought me.. 💕💕💕

[@jays5945]

*BRO THEIR HARMONIES WERE THE BEST I'VE HEARD! EVER! THIS IS GREAT PERFORMANCE!*

[@marygates8567]

WOW!! Two PERFECTLY MATCHED vocals!!! Well done Ali & D.!!

[@sherri99516]

One of the greatest performances of all times on The Voice.... Ali vs. D.Smooth singing "Unaware". A truly amazing duet! Their voices were just beautiful and heard around the planet - they rocked the stage tonight.

[@TB317]

One of if not my favorite battle this season. Very strong vocalists both. The way they navigated the song together was so magical. D. Smooth definitely possesses a sound that hearkens back to those gut-wrenching 90s R&B performances that its hard to capture in this day and age.

[@sotheavyyin4228]

Thank you Kelly! you really take care of your artist. I never heard of this song , but gonna be on my best list!! Love the duet!!!!!!!!!!!

[@martacastillo6272]

This was INCREDIBLE they were both outstanding, I was so sad for a moment there to see D. Smooth go home, BUT DAMN HE REALLY DESERVED THE PLAYOFF PASS I SCREAMED

[@ladiiangel3119]

These Two are wild with it 🔥🔥🔥… Phenomenal performance/duet🔥🔥

[@Ohhhx3Elizabethh]

One of the best battles in the voice history!!

[@elllekelly2215]

This is called The Voice ... Incredible Duet! They need to Record together!! Perfection ..So Smooth together!! They just Flow!!

[@wiseman8991]

Bruh D Smooth give u that 90s RnB sound! I never realized it could be so specific!

[@angiemorsby8429]

That playoff pass is everything. Kelly knows what she is doing 🤣😂🤣😅. Good job KC😘🤗💯☑️👍🏾👋🏾💐

[@daoqitomohisa]

He was insane! His performance was insane! He is so deserved it!

[@gailvenerable6503]

Ali was good; however, he was insane

[@zivapalmer5775]

Just cannot watch this without STANK face. That good.

[@Terry2227]

This was hands down the best battle I’ve ever seen. It was like watching a concert. Blake really said it best

[@christinasolomon536]

Ali is so talented but I need more love for D Smooth. I mean MY GOD he was amazing here

[@nicoledavis6344]

Yes he definitely sounds like he belongs on the radio! He’s phenomenal

[@wabi-sabiyogaandwellnessce10]

[@someoneoutthere9728]

Both of them were TUGGING on that moment. Yet it didn’t feel like they were fighting each other omggg too good.

[@afrocraft1]

That is next-level singing from BOTH!

[@elizabethilling9387]

Phenomenal duet. Would love an album with both Ali and D. Smooth. I could not chose one over the other. Blessings to both of you!

Met Allen Stone twice in Glasgow, Scotland when he was starting out, touring Europe in a wee van. I knew then he was gonna be huge. This performance was world class!

[@Baesicc]

Y’all made me cry! The performance was so beautiful.

[@sdarms111doug9]

That was a SPECTACULAR performance! The only reason to put those two together is to give someone else a chance to build their team. I would buy this version of the song.

[@mariamorgana-ef4si]

OK this is the best battle by far

[@itsjuanderful]

When I tell you that they KILLED it, I am NOT exaggerating they left NOTHING else on that stage.......BRAVO

[@salingkatkat]

[@thestormlscoming]

I wish we could get more battles cuz this is the best part of the show. When their voices mesh together, magic. Both are amazing but D. Really killled this. I don’t remember being blown away with his blind so I’m excited to see what else he’s got up his sleeve.
