On tonight’s The Voice the Top 5 become 4! Also, Snoop Dogg and Pharrell Williams are set to perform, for the first time ever, the new single “California Roll.” Also performing their hit “Shut Up and Dance” is the band Walk The Moon.

Which two contestants will hit the bottom 2 and sing for their lives? Who will be sent home? We’re live blogging all the results here.

Recap time! What happened on the show last night? La la la. Afterward, the band Walk The Moon take the stage to sing “Shut Up And Dance.” Hello there future one hit wonders. Nice to meet you.

Here come the Top 5 semi-finalists! Time for dumb questions. What has Meghan learned about herself from the show. She’s learned how strong she is! These Miss America questions. I MEAN. In no particular order…the first finalist is…from Team Pharrell…DUHHHH… It’s Sawyer Fredericks, of course. And I typed it before Carson even said it.

After the break, Carson reminds us of the cumulative vote. Every iTunes download from the live shows will count toward next week’s vote! Download your favs!

Next, Snoop Doggy Dogg takes the stage with Pharrell to perform his smooth new song “California Roll.” Wow. Snoop needs to stick to rapping. He’s a horrible singer. He’s so flat and off pitch it’s hilarious. Pharrell calls Snoop an “icon.” Working with a legend like him…the answer is always “yes.” He calls the album a “mood lifter.” Something Snoop knows something about.

The Voice confessions are next. Sawyer names all of his cows. “It’s a television show waiting to happen.” says Pharrell. Then they play with Rubik’s Cubes and yo yos. Joshua is very good at juggling. Whee.

On that note. Time for more results. What does India wants to say to everyone who supported her through the journey? Blah blah thank you blah. The next artist moving on to the finals is Meghan Linsey from Team Blake! Coach gives her a big hug.

Up in the sky box, Blake talks about going to a local clinic in Los Angeles. HE HAD NO IDEA WHERE IT WAS. The visit is a promotion for Red Nose Day, coming up on NBC.

Next, India Carney, Koryn Hawthorne and Meghan Linsey join forces to sing “Faithfully” by Journey. Three powerhouse vocalists! Aw. Nice.

Three remaining artist take the stage. Oh. He’s doing a resulty thing. He’s going to call the first artist who will sing for your save, but not all three will have to sing. India Carney will sing first. But not right away.

The Top 4 will perform ORIGINAL songs and duets with their coaches, on next week’s final.

Next up, Sawyer Fredericks and Joshua Davis sing “Drift Away” by Dobie Gray. This seems more like Joshua’s jam. Although their styles kind of blend, their voices really don’t. Sawyer is all sharp powerful edges while Josh is smooth and soft, with just a touch of sanding.

Koryn and Joshua are back on stage. What does family support mean to Josh? Blah blah it means everything blah. The third artist saved by America and moving on to America is Joshua Davis! SO FAR MY PREDICTION HOLDS UP.

Koryn Hawthorne and India Carney will sing for the save.

It’s time to sing for the save. First up, is India. Will she survive her third appearance on the bottom?

India Carney – Darkside by Kelly Clarkson – What is this? I can’t help but compare to Queen Kelly. She’s yelling and riffing through a lot of it. Eh. Not impressed. I think it’s time for India to go. Christina says India is “always enough.” No matter what happens “We’ve had quite a journey together.” Christina URGES her fans to vote. She gives out the hashtag AND CONFUSES EVERYONE. Carson steps in to make sure everyone knows it’s not time to vote yet.

Koryn Hawthorne – “If I Were A Boy” – She got off to a rocky start, but she hits emotional high notes. Koryn always brings the passion. I hope this is enough for her. “People show up every week to see what you do,” says Pharrell. He begs everyone to vote for her. He thinks Koryn sings for ALL the dreamers.

Time to vote! Koryn wasn’t perfect, but she won that sing-off. And overall, I think she’s a better vocalist, in terms of performance and bringing life to a song. I’ll be trying hard to save her!
