For the first battle on Monday night's battle round of The Voice, Christina Aguilera chose her R&B singers Geoff McBride and Sera Hill.
In their very different styles they tackled Chain of Fools, with some help from Lionel Richie and Jewel as their respective mentors.
The resulting cacophony was more pleasing than the riotous din it threatened to be, but while the judges noted they could be a group, there was only ever going to be one winner.

'Being 51 years old,' Geoff said, 'I have an advantage simply because this is the stuff I grew up on.'
He even impressed Lionel as the icon punched his hands into the air when he first heard Geoff's voice. 'Boom! His delivery is unbelievable,' Lionel exclaimed.
'There's no microphone! This is not coming off of a speaker!' Lionel suggested that Geoff not wear his sunglasses on stage to make some eye contact with the audience, so Geoff wore his glasses.
Sera may not have been able to project as loudly as Geoff, but Jewel still believed in her contestant.
'At the end of the day, volume only goes so far. If you can bring more emotion and more story and more heart than Geoff is, you're going to win,' Jewel said.
