The interesting thing aboutThe Voiceis watching what the goal is for the artist while they have this giant platform.
Having a massive television opportunity, do they use it to jumpstart their career?
Do they play to win, showcasing their voice to the best of its ability?

Hailey’s decision to perform this track goes beyond just a talent competition.
It was an opportunity to help teach viewers about the history of female country vocalists.
In her initial Blind Audition, Hailey selected “Before the Next Teardrop Falls.”
The 70s track had that Western sway that transported you another time.
She wasn’t there to be the nextTaylor Swift.
She knew where her voice fit in the world of country music.
She was literally compared toReba McEntire, again, for that throwback sound.
With the yodel in her heart,Hailey showcased where she fits in the world of country music.
It was as if she was transporting us all to a rodeo in 1934 Texas.
So, what is ‘The Voice’ really about if the contestants are edited out?
Yet within the opening verse, Montana does not elaborate upon the tropes of adult love.
Not only was the song progressive, it was written in the middle of the Great Depression.
But as time goes on, those artists soon take the mantle of accreditation.
Female country music would not be where it is had it not been for Patsy Montana.
Having that brief moment of recognition onThe Voiceis monumental.
