It's really bad this series. They literally wait till the last note is hit before touching that button. Irish are the same too.

Strange hearing a country song from an Irish Woman, she did a pretty good job though ... not as much talent in Ireland as in the UK or US.

I guess if you don't get through to the end on one you cross the Irish Sea and try the other one. Mairead Conlon was on Team Bressie in Ireland last year and picks Team Tom in the UK this year

It wasn't too bad, they've butchered a few country songs on the Irish version. So far the Irish haven't had very many that have kept my interest this year.

The Irish band doesn't help much either imho ...

 

[osu1991]

yep the music wasn't helpful. Folk and indie rock are the more popular styles around Ireland. You hear more of that influence in most of the performances.

CeeLo Green Not Returning to NBC's 'The Voice'

The "Forget You" singer announced his decision to leave the NBC singing competition in an interview scheduled to air on Wednesday's installment of "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," saying he does not plan to return to the show "at all."

I am glad he is gone. Never really liked him as a judge.

 

[dfergie]

THR rounds up who should — and actually would — fill the empty season 7 seat and jazz up the judges' dynamic before NBC's hot show goes stale.

The Voice must recruit a musician relevant enough to coach tomorrow's stars, entertaining enough to share a performance stage with the current judges, and likable enough to keep the show's audience glued and rooting for them to win. The show has remained a solid bet for NBC because of its rotating quartet — their diversity, dynamic and dependable ability to win over viewers while dividing them into teams themselves.

I think since Christina is apparently pregnant, they will try and get Shakira and Usher to do another series back to back, if their schedules allow.

I really don't want to see will.i.am. I'm not a big fan of him on the show after 2.5 seasons of The Voice UK. He is also doing The Voice Australia series 3 this spring replacing the departing Seal, so I'm not sure he could squeeze the US version in before the Australian version finishes in July. I've enjoyed Kylie Minogue on Voice UK this series and she is replacing Delta Goodrem on Voice Australia this spring.

Joel Madden is great on the Australian version and is probably better known in Australia than he is here now, plus he is also doing The Voice Australia Kids version after the regular version finishes this year.

I think Pharrell would be pretty good, maybe Kelly Clarkson

I thought this had to be the worst song choice for 2 guys, but they actually pulled it off and it sounded good in the Irish Battle Rounds this week. Bressie still sucks at song choices for his teams
