Chris Stapleton’s soulful cover hit so deep, Reba McEntire had to make the toughest call of the night on The Voice.LC
Two Team Reba artists delivered a powerful rendition of a Chris Stapleton song during The Voice Battles on Monday evening (October 20).
Leyton Robinson and Manny Costello covered “Think I’m in Love With You,” which Stapleton released on his studio album, Higher, in 2023. The duet earned praise from coaches Michael Bublé, Niall Horan and Snoop Dogg. When Bublé asked country legend Reba McEntire what she would do (knowing she would have to choose one artist to advance and another to send home), McEntire admitted, “I don’t know.” Each coach struggled to choose an artist to recommend for McEntire.
“I’m very proud of you both. even from rehearsals, you have grown so much. Leyton, I love your voice. I love your look. Everything. You’ve really put a lot of thought into it, and it is so professional. Manny, I’ve always loved that little gravelly grit, and it was so good. I’m very proud of you both.”
“I love to encourage,” McEntire said of The Voice in an interview with iHeartCountry earlier
