The 16 Best Auditions From The Voice, Just Because They're Friggin' Amazing

Before going head-to-head in the season three finale with fellow Team Blake contestant Cassadee Pope, Terry McDermott powered through this rock classic by The Who with crystal clear vocals.

Having provided backup vocals for artists such as Michael Jackson, Josh Groban, and Stevie Wonder, Judith Hill confidently took on Christina Aguilera's "What a Girl Wants" in her season four audition. Her masterful vocal control and warm tone impressed all four coaches and landed her a spot on Team Adam.

Indie rocker Matthew Schuler amazed all four coaches with a chilling a cappella opening in his rendition of "Cough Syrup." He was so good that he even had Christina playing the air drums in her seat.

Season five winner Tessanne Chin lent her signature warm, emotional vocals to Pink's radio hit. Watching her perform vocal acrobatics during her blind audition, you didn't have to be a rocket scientist to realize that she was going to go far in the competition.

Shortly before her tragic death in 2016, Christina Grimmie impressed viewers with her powerful pop sound. Coming into the competition with a loyal YouTube fanbase, Grimmie flaunted her dynamic range with Miley Cyrus' "Wrecking Ball." It wasn't really all that much of a leap when Usher deemed her a "baby Céline Dion."

It's hard to believe that Sawyer Fredericks was only 16 when he first auditioned for The Voice. The coaches immediately took to his folksy growls and the Bob Dylan-esque quality of his voice during his cover of "I Am a Man of Constant Sorrow."

Anyone who's watched season nine of The Voice knows that Jordan Smith can sing anything from Queen to Adele. Sia's "Chandelier" is an insanely hard song to sing. But Smith nailed it in his audition, flaunting smooth, soaring vocals even in the hardest transitions.

Sydney Rhame became the last person to join Pharrell's team in season nine with a tender and vulnerable take on Ed Sheeran's "Photograph." Since all the other teams were full by the time she performed, you can see the other coaches peeking behind their chairs to watch her emotional cover.

Schoolteacher Ryan Quinn delivers a soulful performance of Steve Winwood's "Can't Find My Way Home." This four-chair turn contestant will likely bring you to tears, and let's be honest, he's a bit of a hot daddy.

Taking on Smokey Robinson is no easy feat, but Chris Blue did it with soul, energy, and an undeniable vocal prowess. He joined Team Alicia last in season 12 but became the first artist to help her win The Voice.

It's hard not to love Lauren Duski's warm, vulnerable cover of Jewel's "You Were Meant for Me." Joining Team Blake, the young country singer went all the way to the finale on season 12 of The Voice.

OK, so we all loved Harry Styles' arrangement of this Fleetwood Mac classic, but Chloe Kohanski's cover was pretty great as well. The young chanteuse killed her performance of "The Chain" with gritty, energetic vocals and an unforgettable rock-and-roll style — hello, fringe jacket!

Sometimes known for his drag persona as Nedra Belle, Chris Weaver honored the great Otis Redding in this spitfire performance of "Try a Little Tenderness" that had all the coaches on their feet dancing (and Jennifer looking for shoes to throw).

The Voice is known for its vocal powerhouses, but every now and then, you'll see a more toned down singer like Christiana Danielle. Channeling the husky, emotional, and creative styles of Imogen Heap and Sade, Christiana brings a tender twist to Drake's hit, which is essentially about a booty call.

The Voice loves its young contestants, and 13-year-old Kennedy Holmes has to be one of its most talented wunderkinds yet. Even though she's so young, she's able to channel the anguish in Adele's soulful song and hit all of the hardest notes.

All four judges hit their buttons for SandyRedd's fiery cover of "River" by Bishop Briggs. Her look is amazing, and her energetic performance will give you serious Tina Turner vibes.
