Tje Austin vs Nakia - Closer (The Voice 1x04)

[tygersflowerz]

i think tje did better on the verses, nakia did better on the chorus.

[foreverchris89]

i like Tje Austin's voice much better, Nakia's is too raspy

[samd1559]

i think Tje Austin has a better voice than Neyo....

[GyMnAsTiCsIsMyLiFee]

i wish tje won :(

[BenSow95]

one hell of a deuet

[loubx78]

He looks like tommy davidson. Lol

[TheMark046]

3 DISLIKES MUST BE JACK VIDGEN

[1steelnick]

floppy afro around 1:20

[devio123]

[mcolley2020]

I LOVE YOU NIKAI YOU ROCK and Tje your voice is rusty

[mcolley2020]

I LOVE YOU NIKAI YOU ROCK and Tje your voice is rusty

[digimongear]

@mcolley2020 FUCK YOU!!

[jwemt81]

I love them both, but I LOVE Nakia's sound!

[dn2021]

I wish Leon Phelps won.

[mrskummings]

nakia killing me @ 1:14!!!

[babbina]

it was sooo so interestign to hear Nakia this softer voiced song, its like a diff interpretation of it

[port753]

1:46 epic ending. same stance, note, blinding lights

[augatron22]

no no noooooaaaa!!!!

[Atergia]

tje shoulda been in the quarter finals instead of the sisters

[babbina]

@Atergia yea, yr right... :( Tje voice is so ice & so smooth, but unfortunately he was pair w Nakia so that blew his chance lol

[GilesWWB]

I felt Tje was the better singer, Cee Lo did not agree.

[maxi9viper]

The Voice wins this round

[maxi9viper]

Nakia was the best choice

[digimongear]

@maxi9viper FUCK YOU!!

[maxi9viper]

@digimongear Fuck Me... Fuck me... Why FUCK ME? Huh? dude just Shut The Fuck Up OK and go back to your kennel... I don't deal with animals

[rockxhero]

They both did a pretty good job. I'd say Tje won. (Who did win?)

I'd say his performance may have been even better than Stefano's.

[AhReeAhna]

Love this!

[silentcreeper26]

Nakia needs to start singing in a metal band

[gangstaladie]

they sound soo good together if they come out with a cd im definitely buying!!!

[babbina]

@gangstaladie yea i luv the contrasts between their voices

[BeenFoundMissing]

Blah. I love Tje and Nakia, and I'm still mad at Cee Lo for pairing then together. Nakia showed the emotion, but Tje had the smoothness and soul of the original. Nakia will probably do better than Tje would, but as I said, I love them both.

[philaman10]

The emotion in nakias voice makes it so much better nakia def deserved to win

[digimongear]

@philaman10 FUCK YOU!!

[port753]

epic duet. better than the original

[port753]

this is why The Voice is already better than american idol. and It's not even the live performances yet

[bostonfan013]

@port753 No. Besides this and maybe 3-4 other the rest of the battle rounds sounded like singing at a karoke bar

[Nworm33]

Cee Lo is not a racist... that much is clear

[RedWingNut44]

honestly i think nakia has a more unique voice and was really powerfull with the song but tje hit the sound of the real song spot on and really nailed it. i think tje shoulda won

[hate4love1]

I think Cee Lo chose Nakia because he was more dominate in the song than Tje was. I think they were matched vocaly as in how they hit the notes but stage presence is a big thing to

[CanucksChica17]

i think Cee Lo told him not to do that no no part at 1:16 but he did it anyways. i think tje did so much better then nikea cause it was more of his genre and was out of nikeas genre

[lampmonz]

I just can't stop listening to this.

[asdfghjkl10194]

big man gots it.... even with his big over powering raspy voice he has got a soothing control... he can and will go far... remember big men stick together.... cee lo and nakia... all the way to the end.......

ps: till javier squashes them hahahaa he is just too good lol

[kollister101]

Tje`s voice was better for the song but Nakia really had the better voice overall.

[soccerstar0304]

Afro!!! :)

[lightningshock12]

Why is everyone saying they think Tje should've won??!!?!? I honestly don't get that at all. NAKIA WAS OBVIOUSLY BETTER in this performace. Tje was good, but Nakia just sat on him. He completely out maneuvered him vocally, used more fanest, power, and range. He interpreted the song and executed it according to his perception and vibe, which Tje did not. Nakia sang as well as sounded way better. If you people actually believe that Afro Boy over there was better, somethings terribly wrong with you

[dwezz76]

@lightningshock12 nakia did better n plus if tje won he would get humiliated by javier because thier styles are similar

[digimongear]

@lightningshock12 FUCK YOU!! YOU MOTHER FUCKER WBHY DONT YOU LICK MY FUCKEN ASS YOU FUCKEN DICK!! WHY DONT YOU SING LIKE THEM YOU FUCKEN GAY ASS MOTHER FUCKER!! FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!FUCK YOU!!

[wax246]

i think that tje should have won!!!!!

[Tilara]

Do you have an instrumental version of this song? The arrangement was awesome especially at 1:33 perfection when the music changes. Its different from the music in Neyo's song its better actually.

[ErikaAwesome]

I wish Tje could still be there <3

I'll miss him

He can SANG

[TheHorsegal71]

I think Tje should have stayed. Stupid descion on Cee Lo's part. Why pair two awesome audience pleasers together? Don't you want to win?

[krowzy10]

lol nakia kinda looks like hagrid from harry potter

[cingai]

@krowzy10 lol!! thanks for that, now i knew why he looks so familiar... =)

[bostonfan013]

Cee Lo made some kinda stupid decisions. He paired his strongest 4 for the most part against eachother. Man. All 4 deserve to be their

[mic3721]

Cee Lo made the best,epic battle,i get chill twice on it ;D

[bostonfan013]

@mic3721 Yeah I love this battle

[LilBas95]

Tje did much better in this battle, and I think he's better at his own singing style, but it's dangerously close to Javier, who's much better. Cee Lo made a good choice in taking Nakia, because he's unique in the competition. It'll get him farther.

[Szv20139]

tje... DUH

[sushyisama]

Both of Cee-Lo's match ups have been impossibly difficult for me to choose one over the other... Wish all four of his people could've gone through. Haha.

[fgfan3]

i feel like this was kind of a bad song choice cuz all they say is "i just cant stop"

[dracochaos12]

Nakia doesn't even sound like he's singing, it sounds like he's growling and shouting alot.

[jerrykam]

@dracochaos12 LOL i know seriously

[digimongear]

@dracochaos12 YEAH WOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bdelon00]

I wish Tje won!

[DEATHEXISTFOREVER]

cee lo is making these pretty damn even so far.and only him and cristana had proper songs for who they picked.the other 2 had terrible song choice.prolly gonna come down to nakia and javier

[sTellasTar24]

My favorite performance of the night. I actually feel that Tje was at a disadvantage BECAUSE his voice is so melodic and smooth. He sings great! Nakia knocked it out of the water!!! He has such a unique style, it actually fit this song PERFECT!

[Ca12nag3]

I got the feeling it was a strategic choice to take Nakia, no offense cause Nakia was realy good but so was Tje. What i think is that for the liveshows Tje is to close to Javier in singing styl but not as good.

With Nakia you have something completely different.

[shristi1987]

@Ca12nag3

That's true...

[RPGamer22]

Nakia won =)

[tomyferland1234]

Who won I missed this one

[brdwyby99]

I love this duet......

and I loved the lighting design here too....just saying....lol

[brdwyby99]

This was a HOT duet! Great job by both and it must have been hard for Cee Lo to choose...=]

[dickycecilove]

Tje is so cute!
