The Voice

Daly: Tonight on "The Voice"...

Yee-haw! Whoo-hoo!

Daly: ...it's a special look at the greatest season... Oh, my God!

...of blind auditions ever seen.

Whoa, ooh

I'm gonna get it on

Yes! Wow!

You got four!

Come here! Brennley!

Daly: You will get new insight

into what our coaches were thinking

as they built their teams of 12. Yay!

I want a young girl that needs help.

Whoo! Daly: Relive the excitement.

That's crazy.

Catch up and pick your favorite artists

before next week's epic battles,

where our coaches are joined

by four of the biggest advisers we've ever had.

John Legend.

Luke Bryan.

DJ Khaled. Whoo!

And one of the greatest voices of all time,

Cline Dion.

Like, I'm gonna have to put this song back on my show... Oh, man.

but I'm gonna have to use your version.

Yes! They'll help make the battles

the best in "Voice" history.

Like, you twirl her,

and you're flippin' your dadgum hair.

That performance was worthy of any Grammy stage.

It was bona fide battle status.

You have to make a record.

Daly: That is a steal! Yes! Yes!

And another one!

Make it three! No way!

Yeah! Yeah!

No!

Daly: Then, our Season 12 coaches

come together for a special, intimate performance.

Don't go chasing waterfalls

Daly: The Best of the Blind Auditions starts right now.

Grammy Award-winning global music superstar

and style icon Gwen Stefani is back

for her third season.

Yes! Daly: And she is ready to win.

I definitely am coming into Season 12

with a new energy.

Oh, my gosh! Wow!

I've had the last two seasons off... Yes!

...made an album, toured the United States,

so I feel ready...

Surprise!

...to come back here now.

I feel super inspired.

I'm just so excited to be back this season

and find some great artists.

I get really emotional

because I feel like I'm here for a reason.

And right now, I feel like I'm here to work with you.

Alicia: Gwen has, like, a really cool,

diverse variety on her team.

I've done a duet with Adam.

I've done a duet with Blake.

Hello.

Genre boundaries... there's no boundaries.

Alicia: Her team, just like herself,

mixture of a few awesome eras

all kind of put all together.

I've had the longest career out of...

He used to come to my shows, okay?

I did.

I did do that.

I'm excited, actually, to fight with Blake right now.

Thanks a lot, Brandon.

You're getting me in a fight with my girlfriend.

I think the world of Gwen, but I'm here to win this thing...

make no mistake about it...

even when my competition is my girlfriend.

And I'm not talking about Adam.

Gwen knows nothing about girls from the South.

Uh, Southern California. Hello?

Uh, I pick...

Gwen.

- Oh, my God! - Yes! Yes!

Oh, my God!

Yes! Oh, my God! Thank you!

Adam: Gwen's on fire, she's killing it.

Season 12 is... it's Gwen time.

Daly: Gwen wasted no time,

winning the first artist to hit the stage this season,

29-year-old single dad

and special needs teacher's assistant JChosen.

Ooh

Baby

Whoa.

I'm hot just like an oven

And I need some lovin'

Ohh, ohh

When I get that feelin'

I want sexual healing

Sexual healing

Oh, baby

Makes me feel so fine

Helps to relieve my mind

Sexual healing

Is good for me

Sexual healing

Is something that's good for me

Thank you. Thank you so much.

Just thank you.

I'm not really feeling too confident right now.

It don't matter. You never know.

Whoo!

Listen, man, we got a lot of work to do,

so let's get started.

He just healed us sexually.

Marvin Gaye is in heaven like...

- Yeah, exactly. - You know what I'm saying?

Gwen: The way you smiled when you were singing that song,

and you just seemed, like, really present in the moment

and grateful to be here.

And I recognize that you give of yourself

working with children with special needs.

Whoever you choose, I'm excited for you.

This is an amazing show, and I'd love to work with you.

I pick...

Gwen.

- Whoa! - Yeah!

What are you talking about?

Are you serious?!

Oh, my God, really?

JChosen... like, that was probably

the biggest triumph of this whole season for me.

He was so good.

He can do anything with his voice,

and he really makes me want to, like, step it up,

so he's inspiring me to even be a better coach.

I really think we're gonna learn a lot from each other.

I don't know.

JChosen... first, he shocked us with his performance,

and then he shocked us about choosing Gwen as his coach.

Now Gwen is a serious, serious threat to win this thing.

That's how good J. is.

I never in my wildest, wildest dreams

thought he would choose me.

Daly: Gwen continued to pull out all the stops,

picking up 24-year-old Sammie Zonana.

She showed her unique voice

by putting her own spin on "Dangerous Woman."

Well, something 'bout you

Makes me feel like a dangerous woman

Gwen, I pick you, no doubt.

Ow! Blake: Whoa!

Daly: She also picked up

25-year-old pop rocker Jozy Bernadette...

Brandon: We're jammin', jammin', jammin', jam on

Daly: ...and Brandon Royal,

a 31-year-old firefighter with island roots.

I bet you if someone approached you yesterday

To tell you that you would be jammin'

You would not believe it

Because you never thought that you would be jammin'

Oh, whoa, whoa

Jammin' until the break of dawn

Running into a fire has nothing compared to this stage.

There's something about what you do

that it was so natural, so pure.

I started off with this music called "ska."

But then, through the years,

I got to work with Dr. Dre and Eve and hip-hop,

and now I've got to work with country artists.

I feel different kinds of styles in what you do.

I want to work with you so bad.

Brandon, I want to help you hold your hose.

Uh-oh.

- Whoa! - Time out.

- That should be... - Whoa!

Time out, time out.

Brandon, not only should that be grounds

for immediate disqualification of that man,

but I... I'm so happy I get to ask you this in this moment,

who do you pick as your coach?

Come on, Brandon! Come on, Brandon!

Let's do it! Let's do it!

I pick...

Gwen!

Oh! Oh!

I'm sorry. Yay!

Brandon, he did a Stevie Wonder song.

I mean, that is usually illegal.

No one should try that, but he did a really good job.

I feel like he is just super talented and so rhythmic.

Didn't come out right.

It didn't come out right.

Daly: Gwen continued to challenge Blake,

securing 16-year-old pop artist from Spring Garden, Alabama,

Savannah Leighton.

Savannah: When I was 6 years old, my dad left.

And my mom was working three jobs
