This week on the final live show of The Voice, the performers will be singing three songs each. Their blind audition song, a duet with their coach, and a final song.

Tessanne started the night with "Try" by Pink, the song she sang for her blind audition. Adam said that everything she does draws him in, and that he talked about being her coach, and how amazing of a performer and a person she is. CeeLo said that she deserves where she is, and that people appreciate who she is. It's obvious that out of the three, Tessanne is a gem that The Voice found on and off stage, whether or not she wins.

Will Champlin was up next with his blind audition song "Not Over You" by Gavin DeGraw. Adam talked about how passionate and hard working Will was throughout the competition, saying that he's also overcome the biggest obstacles. Christina talked about the brief time Will was with her team up until the battle, and also acknowledged that Will tends to get in his head. They both said that Will was incredibly talented. You can tell that Adam was proud of Will, and that Will has worked incredibly hard to the finale.

Jacquie sang "Back to Black" by Amy Winehouse, her blind audition song. Christina said that she gets joy out of watching Jacquie, and she said that she has a similar background as Jacquie, mentioning her family background, as well as saying that Jacquie gives Christina so much happiness whenever they're together, because they're so similar. It's so nice to see such an astounding relationship between these two.

The first coach/performer duet was with Adam and Tessanne, singing The Beatles' "Let it Be". The two played off each other wonderfully in a softly lit stage. They brought a bit of Jamaica into the song.

The second coach/performer duet wass with Jacquie Lee and Christina Aguilera, singing "We Remain", Christina's song from The Hunger Games soundtrack. The two powerhouse vocalists tore down the stage as they took on the song originally performed by Christina.

The final coach/performer duet was Will Chaplin and Adam, singing "Tiny Dancer" by Elton John. The performance showed off both performer's vocal abilities, and how wonderful the two sound singing together.

After the duets, the three sang a trio together, "I'll Be There" by Jackson 5.

After the duets, they showed each contestant's journey on The Voice before they performed. Tessanne's lookback included the judges naming her a 'world class singer', and her song this week only highlights that. This week she's singing "I Have Nothing" by Whitney Houston. When asked for Adam's thoughts, he replied "I don't have thoughts right now". Adam said that there's no ceiling for her, and that there is nothing she can't do, even when given one of the biggest songs out there.

Next they showed Will's journey to the finale, and showed that he was the 'comeback kid' of the competition. He gave "(Everything I Do) I Do It For You" by Bryan Adams. Adam called it a victory that he was here after everything that happened to him on the Voice. He said it doesn't matter who is the winner in the end, Will won by being there in the top three.

Finally, they showed Jacquie's journey, and how she sang knock out performances every week despite being sixteen. Her final song is Jennifer Hudson's rendition of "And I'm Telling You"(originally from Broadway's Dreamgirls). Christina said she "couldn't believe what she just witnessed" and said that Christina said that she's going to be a star. Blake talked about her evolution on the show, and called Christina and Jacquie "the best coach/artist pairing" he'd ever seen.
