Kelly: What?!
Oh, my God.

What's your name, man?
Kirk Jay.
Where you from?
Bay Minette, Alabama.
Alabama!
I gotta ask -- I have to ask
Blake a question,
because you really should only
be considering the two of us,
because these two,
I can't.
-What?!
-We were listening.
One little run
at the very, very end,
that shouldn't have been
what did it for them.
First of all, he just sang
a Rascal Flatts song,
so you need to pipe down.
Get him, Kelly!
-Blake.
-I'm just saying.
-I have a question for you.
-[ Laughs ]
Did you turn around
because it sounded like
CeeLo Green in there
singing a country song?
Oh, wow.
I didn't think about that.
It was like CeeLo and Blake
made a country baby.
[ Laughter ]
-Good to finally meet you, son.
-Yes, sir.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Good to finally
meet you.
After all this time.
Man, I love you, dude.
Whoo!
-Look at us.
We look just alike,
don't we?
Yeah, we do.
[ Laughs ]
Oh, my God.
That was funny.
Man, if for some
terrible reason, Kirk,
you -- you don't come
to my team,
I would love it
if you went to Blake's team.
-Yeah, I would, too.
-What?!
I would, too, Kirk.
Wh-- What?!
We like to hear a lot of it
a lot of the times.
Like, I want to sit here
and listen to it,
'cause I was like, "Wow.
That's a really soulful vocal."
And Gary LeVox has
this whole, like,
kind of Boyz II Men vibe
with him, too,
or Brian McKnight thing
that he has with his voice.
I heard a little of that,
but I'm interested
to know what kind of record
you want to make.
I'm country
till the day I die.
Oh, my gosh!
[ Cheers and applause ]
-Yes!
-What?!
Well, I guess there
ain't nothing for me to say.
Okay, well, he is not the
only person in country music.
I have sang
with Rascal Flatts.
I know you toured with them.
Shut up. Don't say it.
[ Laughter ]
This is what I love
about your voice.
I think that I has this
big, soulful presence
that country music
doesn't have a lot of.
I can represent both
those worlds for you
to help you as a coach.
I just released a song
with Dan + Shay.
I'm on country radio.
I'm just saying,
like, I love country music.
So --
You still have
the air horn?
No. Everybody that comes in here
that loves country
always thinks
there's just one option.
-Yeah, but I-I got --
-Just think about it.
I gotta interject here,
because four chairs --
and you're amazing.
But I-I'm --
I'm not gonna lie.
As someone who
thoroughly enjoys, like,
making Blake suffer
all the time, like,
for the first time, maybe,
in my life,
I want to see you
on Blake's team.
What?!
Whoa!
Holy moly.
I know.
I don't know why.
I don't know why.
I don't like it.
I don't like
that I feel that way.
You're getting a kiss
for that.
You're getting...
-Wait. Wait! Wait!
Kelly: Wait!
Let me just --
I just want to see
that happen.
You sit down, sir. You --
No, let me just paint a picture.
I just kissed Adam Levine.
I just kissed Adam Levine.
Let me paint a picture.
First of all --
[ Cheering ]
Who you think all
the country people
are gonna be on --
what team?
Like, what team do you think
you might stick out on?
Maybe one of ours.
He's gonna stick out
because he's awesome.
Don't do that --
that reverse psychology.
Don't you do that.
It's true.
Baby, what made you pick
the song that you were singing?
It felt like you had
an emotional connection to it.
It's the first country song
I ever heard in my life.
I was on the way to school
one day,
and, um, "God Bless
the Broken Road" had came on,
and I started crying and
chills came all over my body.
And I started looking up
all the #1 hits.
This is something
I want to pursue,
and I'm country till I die,
I promise.
[ Cheers and applause ]
I bet you when you were
looking up
a lot of those #1 hits,
that a lot of them
were, uh, belonging
to Blake Shelton.
Kelly: I bet you --
Did you see mine?
I have one. Don't you und-- I'm
just saying, I have one, too.
You're not the only one.
He needs me. He needs me.
I'm gonna walk over here
and be with him.
No. No, I'm telling you.
Look away!
Everybody
always picks him.
Go with your heart,
honey.
But I'm country, too!
I like the country music!
Kirk, who are you gonna pick
to be your coach?
Hurry up before
she start talking again.
[ Audience shouting ]
You should --
You should shock us all.
[ Cheers and applause ]
♪♪♪
I definitely pick Blake.
♪ If it's meant to be,
it'll be, it'll be ♪
Yeah!
♪ Baby, just let it be
♪ If it's meant to be,
it'll be ♪
That's a big one for Blake, man.
