"I love you back." "I have two older sisters and a little brother, and we all sing." "There was always like a huge musical happening at our house." "In eighth grade, my parents separated." "My mom and dad are actually 20 years apart, so my dad is 76 and going through mental issues." "At the beginning, he would be like, "Ashley, come help me change the TV channel." "I can't get this remote to work."" "And then I'd walk in there and see him holding, like, his alarm clock from his bedside." "Doctors told us this is early onset Alzheimer's." "I need a little bit of help." "All right, let's go." "To see somebody like that not getting to be themselves anymore, you know, it's just hard." "[Sniffles]" "Mm." "That's when I started songwriting, to emote everything that was happening." "Getting to write things out and sing them was such a blessing." "Just recently, I graduated from college, and I got my degree in music." "And it wasn't an easy decision, but I decided to pursue my dream of singing and writing and to audition for "The Voice."" "Now that Alex and I are stable in our careers, we're able to provide some stability for my dad." "This is a perfect opportunity for Ashley to venture off." "Everyone deserves a chance to follow their dreams." "Go!" "[Laughter]" "Ashley:" "Today, I'll be singing "Let Him Fly" by Patty Griffin."

"Your last name is Levine, that's the only difference." "Hers is Levin." "[Laughs]" "If you would like any advice on who to pick and who not to pick..." "Blake..." "then you should ask." "Where are you from?" "You guys almost have the same name." "How old are you?" "Huh?" "Gwen, Ashley... it's almost the same name, isn't it?" "[Laughter] Wow." "I am 23 years old, and I am from Miami, Florida." "But I recently moved to Nashville." "Yee-haw!" "It's super frustrating because Blake's here, and..." " It is." " It's like my mantra." "And I'm not gonna..." "You know what I'm not gonna do?" " What?" " I'm not gonna not try." "That's right." "Because there's a lot that I have to offer." "Like, he uses this pitch all the time..." ""Just 'cause I'm a country singer doesn't mean that I can't be your coach."" "He's gonna try to tell you" "I'm gonna give you a whole career afterward." "But the truth is..." "Which is true." "It..." "It might be true, but the good news is if we make it to the finale," "I got the hookup." "[Laughs]" "It's so weird how she literally, like, puts you down and also uses you as..." "Yeah." "Man, that's so inappropriate to talk about us hooking up on TV." "That's not what she said." "Yes, that's what I heard." " Stop it." " Can I say what I loved about your voice?" "You have, like, the vibrato, the sweetness, and I just did a country song with Blake Shelton." "Quit dropping my name." "Oh, my God." "We get it." "You love him." "But, seriously, like, who cares about genre?" "Because I've done all kinds of music." "I feel like I can really help you." "Whoo!" "[Laughs] I have a good idea." "Because Gwen and Blake have this sensitive new thing where, like, they're gonna get mad at each other if you pick either one of them, that means you should probably go with Alicia, right?" " Oh, my God." " I think that's a great idea." "Best idea ever!" "I heard bluesiness in there, so much soul inside of you." "When you go to these minor seventh things, like..." "[Humming]" " It was... pbht!" " [Laughs]" "So many influences are coming out of you." "And I think that's actually what makes it interesting." "So, let me ask you a question." "Why Nashville?" "Ashley:" "I love country music, obviously." "I'm also a songwriter." "That's one of the best places to go and do that." "I had gigged in Miami for four years, but I wanted something more." "So how long have you been there now?" "Just like a couple months." "I love hearing about your writing because that's the blood of Nashville." "And country music is a sacred thing." "Oh, God." "I would hate to see you..." "Throw it all away and go with another team." "I'd hate to see you become an experiment." "When I believe in somebody," "I follow through with it way after this show is over with." "And you're no different for me." "I mean, I hear you singing, and... and..." "You're no different than all the other girls he has on his team right now." "Like, he literally has all cute girls on his team." "Okay, Ashley, who do you pick as your coach?" "[Audience shouting] Wow." "Come on, Ashley!" " Don't fall for this." " Come on, Ashley." "Don't fall for it." "Stand out." "Stand out." "Don't fall for this, Ashley." "Stand out." " Um..."

"[Cheers and applause]" " All right." " Come here!" " Attagirl!" " Whoo!" "Oh, I thought they talked you out of it for a minute." "Blake:" "Ashley chose me, and I'm so happy about it, because I was afraid the other coaches were gonna get in her head, and I really love the notes that she chooses..." "You're awesome." "...because I can't think of any other country artist that does that." "Hate you." "Once again, "I love country, therefore," "I must go with Blake" thing happened."

"Casi, listen," "I would do cartwheels to have you on my team." "I would literally try to leap over the moon and back for you." "And by the way, the yodeling, it's the craziest thing I've ever heard." "But I have been beaten down so many times by hearing a voice like yours, which clearly is rooted in that traditional country thing." "So I'm not gonna get my hopes up because I am too exhausted." "[Laughter]" " Thank you." " Whoa." " Thank you very much." " Wow." "[Cheers and applause]" " Wait, are you lea..." " Wow." "[Laughs]" "Alicia:" "Listen to me."

"I feel like I'm just in my prime." "[Cheers and applause]" "Casi, when my chair turned around, you looked me like, "You better turn around."" "You did take a second." "But when you started, because I know that song so well... that song was an instant classic." "[Laughter]" "[Cheers and applause]" "What you did to this room and all four of us coaches is the same thing that happened when LeAnn Rimes came out with that song." "Somebody yodels?" "The fact that you have already mastered that," "I am not giving up until Casi is on my team, because this is meant to freakin' be." "It is." "[Chuckling] Thank you." "The most shocking thing would be for you to choose me, so that we could absolutely create magic moments together, exploring music that does what you just did." "And if, for some reason, you didn't want to shock the world and choose me... shock the world and choose Gwen." "Because you're going to be able to get two for one." " Ooh." " I did have that thought." "But I have sang in all genres, so I'm not just country." "What kind of record, like, would you want to make?" "I love country music, but maybe kind of a mixture." "I don't know." "Pop, rock..." "I don't know." "I'm..." "I'm ready to see where..." "where this show takes me, despite the yodeling." " Yeah!" "Come on!" "Yes!" " [Laughs]" "I'd like to retract some of my previous statements." "[Laughter]" "Those were the rantings of a madman." "I..." "I, uh..." "I've changed." "I've changed, Casi." "I accept that." "I'm a new man!" "[Cheers and applause]" "What if you chose me?" "That's crazy!" "Like, why would you do that?" "That's the worst decision ever." "Or is it the best decision ever?" "[Laughter]" "I don't know." "I can't tell." "You decide." "Okay, so who do you pick as your coach?" "[Audience shouting]" "♪♪♪" "Come on, Casi Joy!" "I pick Blake." "Yeah!"
