[@NiaSkyfer]

Thank y'all for all your lovely and constructive comments ! Singing with Emma was such a blast and it definitely pushed me to work harder ! There's still so much to learn but Im glad I was able to showcase a bit of who I am with you guys. Much love always ! 🌹❤

[@Nattybymandy]

Well done honey. The sky is your starting point ❤❤

[@odakotarose]

Please keep singing and performing! Just subscribed to your channel and hope to see more music from you!

I don't get why Camilla didn't steal you. She couldn't turn for you in the blinds since her team was full. Ugh.

SEEING TATES SONGS BEING SUNG HERE IS LITERALLY SO AMAZING IM SO PROUD OF HER

[@robertantonnyc]

Emma so clean and polished while Nia has a rough edge and lotta excitement. Their tones are so different but blend well together. Nia worked the stage and used her whole body for this. Emma really handled the emotion well and sailed on those high notes. - So You Wanna Be A Singer

emma is a singer but nia is a PERFORMER; her energy and vibe is immaculate, she made the stage come alive and i can't wait to see what she does in the future!

unfortunately, show is called the voice so Emma wins

[@cole7726]

[@mynameisabe905]

@@cole7726 almost never.. the finals are determined by popularity

[@cole7726]

@@mynameisabe905 that's my point. Going off of just the voice has never been the sole determining factor. You have to take the whole package into consideration.

[@TB317]

I enjoy Nia's showmanship for sure, and her tone as well but Emma definitely came across as the better singer with more control of her instrument so I'd go with her.

[@sarahhchan]

Emma sang it like a singer songwriter, while Nia sang it like a popstar - really as different as could be

[@mleleuterio]

nia leans towards the popstar vibe here, love her rocking the whole stage

[@IWas.ThereforeIAm.111]

Omg same 🙌

[@minahilali835]

When they sang together, I actually got full body chills, no joke, it even surprised me

[@SahilTanna]

Can't believe they let Nia go home. Nia was the full package. it's more than just having a voice, the artist matters too and Nia is definitely the one I could see actually in the music industry.

[@jacf4460]

Dont know when ill get over it tbh. She has SO MUCH star power, it shouldnt be wasted! 😩

OMG this was so amazing! The song fit so perfectly! They both did the dangg thang!!!!! I loved it so much

[@nicolettepaul9374]

They’re voices blended so well! But I loved Emma’s tone more

[@jasonpinto8851]

Gwen is the smartest one out of all of them. They were both so good but she hit it right on the head. 2 complete different styles

[@cole7726]

I feel like covering Tate is tough because you just can't beat her signature sound and tone. It's always going to feel a little lackluster in comparison. But, I think Nia gave the stronger performance overall and it felt more natural with her.

[@Justarttingz]

Covering is not about beating the original -

[@cole7726]

@@Justarttingz Never said it was. Just saying this battle felt lackluster and a step down from the original because Tate's tone stands out so much in her music.

​@Cole I actually thought the tone difference made it better

[@mynameisjeff7082]

Emma had a much cleaner vocal performance while Nia had a ton of excitement in her performance.

[@AM-mg7gj]

I 💯 agree

[@Yy-zz01]

I just love Emma she has perfect tone and voice quality

[@fernandaalvesrosa5776]

I want a spotify version of this cover asap!

[@bher1405]

Emma was still able to deliver her own sound even though she was singing a pop song. Nia has a great look and sound but Emma’s artistry just stands out a bit more.

[@trinc9015]

I was rooting for Nia, she has a star quality that’s I’d want to go to a concert to watch.

[@ajplays7241]

tbh from her looks standpoint its generic and been done before she needs to find an image just for her. and unique to her because that hat is a distraction not criticizing it or anything but its distracting from key communication (the eyes)

[@javaciousbell1760]

Naw man nia just gives me this performer vibe nobody will understand me but she is just so raw and the way her voice is perfect for this song and her stage presence gave me chills from the first time I saw her

[@ZevMeth_originaljewishmusic]

While Nia lit up the stage, this is The Voice, and Emma was SO much better vocally. There was no debate here!

[@McKelT]

They’re both sooo gooddd and Emma looks like a Winter Disney Frozen Elsa with the ice blonde hair. I see ya girl 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@Senaleb]

Emmas vocals were so clean and polished and POWERFUL..i was super impressed with her.

[@fairydust8082]

I cant believe Nia didn't get stolen! She impressed me on here a lot. Reminded me of tate and halsey lots of emotion and angst and woman power

[@ajplays7241]

i see atleast in my view from an artistic standpoint see that She kind of or seems a bit stage frought or has stage fright and wants attention off her cause you cant see her eyes very much or connect with her and to do that she has to get rid of that big hat cause its a distraction from her eyes which blocks communication

[@PintheDog]

@@ajplays7241 Actually, it's simpler than that. The steals were all gone by the time their Battle came along.

[@SamFocused]

Emma still Unbelievable with 19 years how Perfect She hit the notes and harmonies Great Performance!!! Nia was performing so Authentic I really believed her that She is angry of the Stupid Boy 💯

[@mercyjumaofficial1943]

Yes i felt the song through Nia

[@chelsearoberts9035]

Emma is like a modern alternative Kelly Clarkson/Carrie Underwood love child - so good

[@daisylincolns6864]

emma is a better vocalist by far and i’m sure the more she performs the more we will see her come into her stage persona

[@ammarsadeq6078]

John should have looked at the overall package not only the voice. Nia had better stage presence. John just overlooked it. Emma was just focused on her singing with less actions and emotions.

[@PizzaHutCEO]

@@ammarsadeq6078 it’s called the voice, not the dance

[@Missmagazinebura]

I like nias voice more cuz her voice fits the song better and Tate’s voice reminds me of camilas voice

[@julia_simone]

Emma has better range and control. Very well earned win

[@HeroShades]

This was a really cool song choice for these two and Emma's tone is more polished and gorgeous. She's radio ready and gave so much character. Loved Nia too and she is entertaining but Emma brought more emotions, character, vocals, and attitude than Nia which is why John chose her and she's the better vocalist too. John chose right. Emma could go really far in the competition. She's the dark horse right now who keeps on surprising. I felt that Emma gave the stronger performance of the two.

[@orchidsparadise4724]

I liked the purple girl better.

[@pelyphin0]

I agree, sort of. She is the better vocalist. I honestly think Nia won this battle, but this was very much her kind of song, not Emma's. Emma had a clear future, a lot of range and adaptability. Nia had a really good moment. I think it's one of those things that isn't said outright, but the coaches are looking to the future sometimes more than for who performed better on a given day. I don't think Nia could've taken the show. I think Emma might at least make the finals. This performance, though. I heard Emma sing a beautiful version of this song, with better control and technique. Nia embodied it. It felt like a perfect performance for that song at that moment.

[@JoshuaHubbardmedia]

Nia is an actual popstar, shes above this show.

[@jacobmccain8794]

Nia is the whole package. Emma has that classical belty voice. She was soaring on those high notes, but Nia has that star dust. The fit, her distinct voice, her stage presence! She has this pop punk sound that is just so good and it enjoyed so much emotional because it is so raw. She actually gives me Gwen down in her stage presence. However, I felt Emma was gonna win due to every talking about how mature her voice is. John has really been going with the point of picking their vocalist hands down. I get it, it’s called the voice, but I think “The Voice” is very much a fixed term and they are of course looking for that whole package. I’m shook Nia was not stolen or something. She is a beast. I could totally see America falling in love with her. Nobody is singing the music she is either. Ugh I’m peeved!

[@yeseniabravo7372]

Exactly like why didn’t anyone steal NIA she was so so good as well like I would’ve loved seeing more of her :(

[@simgeesinorhun2761]

It is such an even battle, so performance wise, Nia wins this battle actually. Hope in future she will have other chances!

[@camrentoorealcam8437]

Nia is a mix of Gwen with a bit of Camila. The style and the way she performs reminds me of Gwen especially the 90’s Gwen tho.

[@Ot5klover727]

Absolutely I see it

[@ellakate6921]

Emma your voice was so amazing, I enjoyed y'all both. And Emma I really like ur sparkling silver dress🤍

[@ClarityAmor]

Nia is a vibe!

[@marloneu2406]

I really agree with the coachs on this performance and it's so sad to see an artist line Nia go home cause she's so tallented and could grow so much in the program, but i'm also happy for Emma because her tone and range are phenomenal. I'm excited to see what she's gonna do next!

[@leticiaaraujo8840]

im so happy that they sing a TATE MCRAE SONG

[@davidnathanael3814]

Best battle so far

[@Matrix-ih6qe]

Nia could’ve been stolen if Camila had her steal left. Nia’s attitude and vocals were right on point with the intention of the song. Though Emma has impressive awareness of her vocals, Nia wasn’t lagging behind at all as a complete package.

[@LAFITZ10]

so much PASSION & then CONTROL your voice IN IT - BRAVO! i pick NIA

[@destinychibuzor3630]

I haven't gotten to the end of this and as I felt when Nia came on the show, I think she was brought on to save the artists that a coach wants to keep. Especially when the coach is John. Nia's not really his speed, if you ask me he turned to have an easy decision when having to let someone go.

[@ammarsadeq6078]

Nia should have won. She is more exciting to watch. Emma is also very good not discounting her but her voice felt more smooth, girlish and introvert

[@WildRemedies]

So different… And I thought Emma sing beautiful but near passage amazing stage presence and more edge and I would choose her… Mostly because she's so different… She really stands out

[@TheDazzlingscenes]

i feel like emma was the safe choice nia is so unique and talented and just needs to learn more and like isn’t that the point of this? to COACH them?

[@luancosta3153]

That's the problem of the voice, they never choose the whole possible package. They just think about the belting stuff and that's why the winners never get that famous. Cause to be an artist in this industry is more than just hit high notes. I think Mia has a quality star more than Emma.
