Preparation

Kristen will be singing “I Drive Your Truck” by Lee Brice, which is a song she’s frequently performed on Sundays at a local bar. On one occasion, she was approached by men who thanked her for her stirring rendition of the song, which is about a person mourning the loss of a serviceman by driving his truck. Kristen notes that she’s a bit nervous being the last person of Shakira’s team, but it’s clear that Shakira has a lot of faith in Kristen. I wouldn’t have predicted when the season started that Kristen would be Shakira’s sole survivor, nor would I have predicted I’d end up liking her as much as I do. But song choice aside, I’m rooting for her here.

Coach Comments

	Adam Levine:
	Shakira: Shakira calls the performance “beautiful” and “transcendent,” and says she believes that Kristen isn’t going anywhere. Shakira sounds choked with emotion as she describes how moved she was by Kristen’s vocal.
	Usher: Usher, meanwhile, says that while he obviously isn’t an authority on country music, when it’s good, it’s good.
	Blake Shelton: Blake thought she did a great job, and says she’s made a believer out of him from the blind auditions to now.
