The Voice

Clearly since The Voice is now in it's second season, it's been a hit with millions of viewers across North America. Now...you would think that with multiple talent shows on the air that one of them would falter and eventually fail but, like the other talent shows on TV( X-Factor America's Got Talent, American Idol etc), The Voice has a solid viewing from fans.

I used to be an avid viewer of American Idol (and Canadian Idol when it was on), but I slowly stopped because it got repetitive and you could clearly see who the finalists were before the show ever made it to the finals. When The Voice came out I was tentative to watch at first because I believed it would be the same  - but boy was I wrong. Here are the  three reasons why I love The Voice:

1. I first and foremost love the fact that they have "blind" auditions where the judges don't have the opportunity to SEE the competitor before they listen to their voices. In a beauty saturated world it's refreshing to see a singing reality show that focuses strictly on voice first.

2. I love the range of talented musicians this year (even last year's were amazing). I love that they vary in age, sex, race and musical talents. There isn't just your typical pop, rock or country singers. They range from pop to r&b, to even classical. I can't wait to see the rest of the auditions as well as the sing-offs in future episodes.

3. Lastly, I love the chemistry between all of the judges. All four are professionals in their business and it's great to see them come together to mentor new singers but  they're also able to joke and be friendly with each other. They all seem like they've known each other forever and are comfortable being themselves. I seriously find myself laughing at the jokes and banter that goes on between them all, especially Adam Levine and Blake Shelton. They are hilarious!

I hope these are good enough reasons for you guys to turn on your tvs and watch The Voice from now on. It's a great show full of talent and I want to share it with as many people as possible!

(p.s. Adam Levine and Blake Shelton are sexy...which is definitely an added benefit.
