The Voice’s Coaches Wow Fans with an Uplifting Cover of a Beloved Eagles Track
The four Voice coaches – Gwen Stefani, Snoop Dogg, Michael Bublé, and Reba McEntire – took the stage and delivered a deeply soulful rendition of the classic Eagles song ‘Heartache Tonight’, rapidly going viral and garnering millions of views within days. The performance was truly outstanding, allowing each coach to display their distinct vocal styles before uniting to passionately sing the song’s inspiring chorus together.
Snoop Dogg was the first to command attention, infusing the performance with ultra-cool energy and surprising many fans with his unexpectedly smooth vocals. Following him, Michael Bublé graced the stage with his velvety voice, appearing effortlessly stylish in a sleek suit. He was then joined by the exquisite harmonies of country legend Reba McEntire and pop star Gwen Stefani. United, the four artists delivered a star-studded performance that left the audience clamoring for an encore!
Meanwhile, the performance upheld the longstanding tradition of the program’s coaches performing a song together to mark the start of a new season. These performances help build excitement for the upcoming competition, where coaches initially choose their favorite singers based solely on their vocal talent (aiming to recruit the top singers to their ‘team’), and then mentor their selected artists through the ensuing rounds with the goal of one team member ultimately winning.
Last year, another memorable pre-season performance successfully energized viewers for the upcoming season of The Voice. Gwen, Reba, along with then-judges Niall Horan and John Legend, collaborated to deliver a dazzling rendition of another Eagles classic. They opted for ‘Take It Easy’, which was received as enthusiastically as ‘Heartache Tonight’. A standout moment that evening was John Legend’s performance, featuring his wonderfully rich and resonant vocals.
The coaches’ pre-season performances have become an important tradition in The Voice’s history, with many viewers eagerly anticipating these acts as they build excitement for the upcoming season. This year’s rendition was no different, as Snoop, Michael, Gwen, and Reba clearly invested their hearts and souls into their version of ‘Heartache Tonight’.
