I missed the first battle of the night. I wish I could have missed the second and third battles. I felt bad for last week’s contestants that they had to go home and the two “winners” of those battles got to stay. I don’t think they can last long once we get to the live rounds. And despite not being impressed with any of those singers, in both cases, the coach picked opposite of what I would have.

I agreed with the choices for the fourth, fifth and sixth battles. I can see a couple of those people going far.

I’m boring right now, because for the most part, I agree with the judges’ decisions. I may not always agree with their song choices as I think song choice has a major effect.

I felt bad for the blond sandwich maker from Cee Lo’s team. I don’t think he sang badly, but the guy he was battling knocked it out of the park. Best performance of the battle rounds so far, in my opinion.

Now we know four of Christina’s team, two of Adam’s, and three each from Blake and Cee Lo. Overall, I think it’s a talent packed season.
