The Voice Season 5 picked up Monday night with the top eight singing for their lives once again. Did the favorites continue to outshine the competition?
Team Christina's Matthew Schuler, Team Adam's James Wolpert, and Team Christina's Jacquie Lee came in with the best shot, according to oddsmakers.

Jacquie Lee found herself challenged to let loose for a performance of "Who's Lovin' You" by Smokey Robinson. Cee Lo said she swallowed an old lady:
