Stevie to perform on The Voice *spoilers*
 

UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif. – June 28, 2011 — NBC’s “The Voice” will add rock legend Stevie Nicks, Pat Monahan (lead singer of Train) and Ryan Tedder (lead singer of OneRepublic) to its star-studded live results show and season finale on Wednesday, June 29 (8-9 p.m. ET).
The recording stars will sing with the four remaining finalists for each team. Nicks will pair with contestant Javier Colon, while Monahan sings with Vicci Martinez and Tedder will form a duet with Beverly McClellan. They will join previously announced Grammy Award-winning star Miranda Lambert (who is married to Blake Shelton, one of the series’ musician coaches) who will sing with the fourth finalist, Dia Frampton.

The announcements were made by Paul Telegdy, Executive Vice President, Alternative Programming, NBC and Universal Media Studios.

Nicks is a multi-Grammy-winning member of the legendary Fleetwood Mac whose “Rumours” album (Grammy Album of the Year) was one of the biggest selling records in rock history. She is also a Grammy-winning solo artist whose “Bella Donna” debut CD sold well over five million copies. Her current solo CD, “In Your Dreams” — her first studio CD in over a decade — debuted last month at #6 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart. Nicks is also a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Grammy Hall of Fame. She has written and performed such classic hits as “Landslide,” “Rhiannon,” “Edge of l7” and “Gold Dust Woman.” She is scheduled to begin a solo tour next month.

Can't wait. Wonder what they will be singing..

Jaaaaavierrrrrr! He's been my absolute favorite contestant since the first night. So excited for this! :blob2:

Surely they'll sing one of Stevie's songs?

I'm sure they will. Two of the contestants have already done "Leather and Lace" so I don't think it will be that one.

SDMHA?

Surely they'd pick an actual duet song, it'd be foolish of them not to when she's got quite a few to pick from, no?

Nice!! I"ve never seen the show but I know it's a hit so that means more exposure for our girl!!!

Goooooooooooooooooooo Stevie!!! :D

This sure is a great time to be a Stevie Nicks fan!!! :thumbsup:

This will be huge. "Dancing with the Stars" aims at a decidedly broad but milquetoast cross section of the populace, but "The Voice" is specifically for fans of music. And what an interesting pairing too. I'm so hoping that Stevie has learned a lesson or two from her last few missteps and will be singing something that she can comfortably scale. It will probably be "Landslide," but perhaps it could be a reworked "For What it's Worth." :shrug: Also, it's rather ironic that a show that is all about the voice is featuring a singer who is far from being a good technical singer.

Since the idea of The Voice is to showcase a new artist, I am going to put money on Insider. Its something we know Stevie can sing well, and it is a Male lead song that she can just sing backup for.

But I wonder if they would do that, since that's technically a Tom Petty track?

I would love it, though. Stevie sounds incredible on that song and it's one of my favorites.

Or they're doing Landslide as a duet.

Please no. Especially not a duet, I can't see how that would logically make sense or sound good.

I haven't watched this show. My 1st thought was "Whenever I Call You Friend" (which could be...interesting in her mature voice), but these reality music shows seem to have a thing for "Rhiannon". "Stand Back" or "Edge" might be smart choices. I don't think the song they do will necessarily be a studio duet if the point is to show off a contestant's voice. Then again, if, as somebody mentioned, "Leather and Lace" was performed earlier in the season, I doubt that will prevent it from popping up in the show now. American Idol always rehashed stuff from earlier in the season on its finales (back when I watched it). So L & L is perhaps the safe bet.
Just please, not "Landslide" or "Secret Love".
Does anyone know, is the song choice up to the show or the contestant? I think if it's up to the contestant, we're perhaps more likely to get a good song choice rather than something safe & bland & over-done like "Landslide".

I'm sure it'll be something simple, like Rhiannon...each one sharing a verse, and singing the chorus together.

Since it's a boy, though, I feel like they kind of set it up so they could sing a song that was meant to be sung as a duet. They could have easily paired her with a girl and done a repeat of the 2010 Grammy's (although hopefully with better vocals from the contestant than Swift could offer).

I hope she pulls out "Gold Dust Woman". That one always works great live, and unlike "Rhiannon", it does not require her to move around the stage to be edgy.

- Jake

I was hoping she would fly into New York and hang there for a while doing the talk show and morning news promotions that she missed last month. This time promoting her new single. :shrug:

Oh well, wasn't see just in England yesterday? Boy, she is pushing her self doing all that traveling and performing live tomorrow. Most people would be pretty jet lagged. :nod:

That's what I was thinking, that she's pushing herself. I hope she's home resting up today. I'd be totally jett-lagged.


Jamie

This is Stevie. I'm betting she's practicing her rear end off all day.

- Jake

And honestly...what else does she have to do between now and August?

Rehearse, rehearse, rehearse. ;)

LET'S HOPE!

P.S. I love your Amy Sedaris pic.

Thanks for the heads up.I do hope she will relax.I dont want her to have a relapse.

I bet they do "Two Kinds of Love"!!

I hope they do something that isn't one of her songs - would be an unexpected nice change.

I was rooting for our hometown guy, Nakia. But Javier's always been my 2nd favorite.

my guess..."stop draggin my heart around.." REALITY..."landslide" mayyyyybe "dreams"

That'd be a nice change! Give TOSOTM a song for once!

keeping my fingers crossed for "stop draggin my heart around"

I read somewhere that Dia might be singing Landslide tonight since she released a youtube video of the song yesterday.

I got the show on now.They said .later there will be a special annoucement later.

My vote goes for SDMHA or Rhiannon. But Edge would definitely blow everyone away, especially if Stevie head bangs at the end like she recently has been doing. Now, wouldn't that be AWESOME on national TV?

They just annouced Stevie for tomorrow nites show.

two kinds of love??? :shrug: ewww..it wil be stop dragging my heart around

anyone else...
 

think that Xtina was channeling Stevie tonight??? side-part shaggy hair and velvet hats!! love to hear those two sing together!

I was hoping she'd sing with Beverly (SDMHA!) or Vicci, but whatever, I'm so glad she's going to be on!

Dia's voice would be most suited to Stevie's style.
Stevie is still a very direct singer. No trills, spills, roller-coaster rides of vocal acrobatics. Have a song, have a pretty, but highly unusual, voice--deliver.

I like Beverly but my ears were bleeding after hearing her and Christina sing. But, I am so not a Christina fan. Or Mariah, for that matter.

Having never seen this show, I checked out javier colon on youtube. He's pretty mellow, so unfortunately I think it'll probably be landslide.

Jamie

Hahaha!! God, that song would be dreadful... nice mention though!
