The Voice Season 27 winner Adam David from Team Michael Buble – Every performance ranked
Adam David was the winner I never saw coming on Season 27 of The Voice, but boy did he have a journey on the show. From his sultry ballads to his jazzed-up take on classics, every one of his performances led the way to giving coach Michael Bublé his second victory on The Voice. Here is every one of David’s performances, ranked.
8. “Lose Control” by Teddy Swims – Wild Card Instant Save
A very fitting song for David’s voice and style, and it may just be that chilling ending that earned him America’s instant save, sending him to the finale.
7. “Unaware” by Allen Stone – Knockouts
David offered a different tone of voice to this song, showing the coaches that he’s more than just a jazzy balladeer and can hit notes they didn’t know he had.
6. “Bring It On Home to Me” by Sam Cooke – Semi-finals
David always shone the most when it was just him and a guitar, and his rendition of “Bring It On Home To Me” by Sam Cooke allowed him to show off his vocal range and receive a stand O from his coach.
5. “Home” by Michael Buble – Battles with Ricardo Moreno
Hearing David cover a Buble song was ideal, and “Home” was the most up his musical alley. Even in a battle with Ricardo Moreno lending some Spanish lyrics to the song, David conquered this Buble classic and ultimately won the battle.
4. “Baby, I Love Your Way” by Peter Frampton – Blind Auditions
David proved himself the second he hit The Voice stage, sounding like Buble with a twang. He wowed Michael from the start, earning his chair turn and a spot on Team Buble with his twist on “Baby, I Love Your Way.”
3. “You Are So Beautiful” by Joe Cocker – Finale
This song perfectly captured David’s voice and at the exact moment when it mattered most. As his Finale ballad, David kept it raw and emotional, doing exactly what this show is about and letting his voice lead his way to the crown.
2. “Hard Fought Hallelujah” by Brandon Lake and Jelly Roll – Finale
This one almost felt like it could be an Adam David original, the way he empowered not simply the song, but the meaning behind it. He sounds as if he feels and believes every lyric, and the choir behind him made it a moment to remember.
1. “I Shall Be Released” by Bob Dylan – Playoffs
David’s Playoffs performance of “I Shall Be Released” by Bob Dylan always felt like one of those classic reality singing competition performances to me, in the best possible way. Arguably one of his most memorable performances, both David’s voice and the musical arrangement captivated every listener.
