I just figured that Christina would make it mainly due to the fact that she was a youtube find. I assumed that she had a lot of followers because of that.

Maybe that's why Adam guaranteed Christina would win if she was saved. Like Carlpsmom said, what's the point?
Really hate this instant save thing. Whoever gets fewest votes should leave...period.

Contests run on youtube, facebook, twitter and just about who can rally up the most followers/votes, and that is a shame when clearly there are people voting because they like Justin or Selena or Adam or whoever who haven't even heard the singer sing. Just another "please like this" contest.
I like Christina, but think Kristen should have gone through, since it sounds like she had more votes than Kat or Christina.
But Adam is more popular than Shakira, I guess. Maybe their reasoning is that the votes "for" Adam were split by Kat and Christina and Beiber and others were helping Christina.

Nobody watch the show tonight?? I don't watch DWTS anymore....I think The Voice is 100% bettere. JMHO
I felt Jake was really off tonight. Josh was wonderful but I fear that Christina will win. She sang an Elvis song tonight which was pretty good. If she gets the Bieber fan base votes she's a shoe-in, sorry to say. I'm a Josh fan.

Christina had my favorite performance with "Can't Help Falling In Love". I think either Josh or Christina have the talent to win.
Jake just has nothing original to offer to my liking...but then again I am not a country fan.

Ok, I'm calling foul!! Something hinky is going on. I can't believe that I can't find Josh's "Set Fire to Rain" ANYWHERE on the top 100 ITunes charts. His songs have consistently been in at least the top 100. I read a comment on one of The Voice articles that said that song was listed under Albums instead of songs and it took them forever to find it..........and who wants to buy a whole album!
Jag, I watch both, but always watch The Voice and record DWTS to watch the next morning. And you're right about Christina, "Can't Help Falling in Love" put her over the top last night. Add to that all of the Bieber fan votes, etc., I'm sure she'll win.

Just a few of the comments on The Voice FB page:
I find it interesting that Jake has tweeted several times about the iTunes glitch for Josh's song, but it's crickets over at social media maven Grimmie's Twitter page.
What happened !! Josh was so cheated!! Couldn't find his song to vote . I-tunes or voice one should make this right !!!! What a set up. Voting started before he even finished his song. How much more could they have done to prove this is rigged. I will not be watching Voice again. Idol has my only attention now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HUGE PROBLEM - Itunes won't let you purchase Josh's version of Set Fire to the rain. Is the fix in?
EVERYONE NEEDS TO BUY JOSH'S SET FIRE TO THE RAIN! THERE IS AN ITUNES GLITCH AND THE SONG ONLY SHOWS UNDER ALBUMS. THIS GLITCH IS CAUSING THE SONG TO NOT CHART ... BECAUSE PEOPLE CAN'T FIND IT! LETS GET HIM CHARTED!!!!!
All these from:

MODS, hope my posting it like this was ok.

I predict that because of the Itunes glitch, they will announce that the top 10 downloads will not score any extra points.
Of course, both of Jake's songs ended up in the top 10. sigh.....

One more post and then I'm outta here.
Checked Josh's Twitter page and saw a bunch of tweets from J. Bieber.....sorry Adam, but I gotta go with my man Usher and Josh this time.

I swore I wasn't watching The Voice anymore after the last minute fix last week to bump Kristen out of her rightful spot in the finale. Kept my word, and didn't watch or record last night's show.
Josh was my favorite from the beginning, and I hoped he'd win, but from reading here looks like there is potentially another fix in place. Think I'm done with this show for good now.

The song for Josh was easy to find for me. All you had to do was type his name into search.

The only thing that I didn't like about Josh's last song is that the production was a bit too 'Usherized'. Josh did not seem like a white suit sort of singer to me. But, I did enjoy the song a lot.

Does anyone know who the long haired guitar player is in the voice band? I feel like I should know who he is. I googled but can't find anything.

It would be nice if Bieber went with the performer that he thought was the best but silly me ....

I agree Jimmer. I think it should be based on what us, the viewer, thinks. Not by iTune sales or who's friends with a judge who can influence the votes. Kristen would be in the F3, not Christina, if Adam hadn't tweeted the Bieber. This has been my favorite talent show but there is starting to be too much interference and it's not fair. Last week there was a glitch and they had a problem with showing the Twitter Save votes and this week it's fans being denied buying Josh's song on iTunes. I'm soo disappointed in Adam who I always liked. It's sad.

There was something hinky with Set Fire to the Rain this morning. I tried to listen to the sample on iTunes. It would not highlight or play. It didn't show all the information every song shows on iTunes, namely time and album. This afternoon it is working normally on Josh's page but still not on the Top 100 Singles page. It is #20 right now. Josh is my favorite, but I don't expect to see him win tonight. The other two are good singers too. I thought Jake seemed nervous singing with Blake last night. I also felt that Josh sounded much better on the duet than Usher. I miss hearing Kristin sing. I enjoy her singing and performance more than Christina's and Jake's.

Carson just announced that the downloads will not count towards the vote due to the problem with Josh's song on iTunes. Their accounting firm said this did not affect the outcome of the votes.
