WATCH: Blake Shelton’s ‘Voice’ Promo Welcoming Ariana Grande

Author Nancy Brooks // Country Writer, Beasley Media Group
July 27th, 2021 2:02 PM

As is tradition, NBC’s The Voice released a fun promo to announce the fall season on the show.

This year’s new coach is Ariana Grande, who will be joining Blake Shelton, John Legend, and Kelly Clarkson, who are all returning for the new season.

Blake posted the fun promo video to his Instagram. In the promo, Blake, John, and Kelly are sitting around a campfire when Blake points to the sky, saying, “Oh whoa, look at that amazing star over there,” to which Legend responds, “You mean Alpha Centauri,” Blake says, “No, I mean Ariana Grande.”

Grande then comes to sit around the campfire and Clarkson tells her that the new coach must sing around the campfire. Grande knocks it out of the park attracting all the animals to come out of the woods to hear her. Shelton then says, “This is going to be an amazing season.”

He wrote on the post, “You know what they say.. the s’more the merrier! @NBCTheVoice is back on September 20th! #TheVoice.”

18 Blake Shelton Songs That We Love

  • 18. “She Wouldn’t Be Gone” (2008)

    Share

    In the song, Blake sings about his relationship with a lover who has just left him. He expresses regret over having not attempted to keep her from leaving. The song became Shelton's fifth number one hit on the US Billboard Hot Country Songs chart in February 2009.

  • 17. “The Baby” (2002)

    Share

    The song describes how a mother thinks of her children. Blake sings as he describes being the youngest child in his family and tells of various situations where he is referred to as "the baby" of the family. It was released in October 2002 as the first single from Shelton's album ‘The Dreamer.’

  • 16. “Came Here to Forget” (2016)

    Share

    Released as the lead single from Blake's tenth studio album, ‘If I'm Honest.’ It was hailed for its progressive production and his expressive performance.

  • 15. “Who Are You When I’m Not Looking” (2010)

    Share

    The title says it all. It's a ballad in which the narrator wants to know the characteristics his lover's hiding from him (e.g. "Do you paint your toes 'cause you bite your nails?"). It was another chart-topper for Shelton.

  • 14. “God Gave Me You” (2011)

    Share

    Blake has a lot of songs with "God" in them; in this one Shelton heard Dave Barnes' version of the song on a contemporary Christian station and said that it had inspired him to propose to then-girlfriend Miranda Lambert.

  • 13. “Minimum Wage” (2020)

    Share

    Following the live debut of "Minimum Wage" in December 2020, the general public described the money-centric lyrics as insensitive and tone-deaf, amidst the economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. Shelton later addressed the criticism, revealing he felt that some people misinterpreted the song.

  • 12. “Lonely Tonight” (featuring Ashley Monroe) (2014)

    Share

    "Lonely Tonight" is a bittersweet song about a one-night stand, with Blake and Monroe playing ex-lovers who reconnect for one last night. The song received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Country Duo/Group Performance.

  • 11. “I’ll Name the Dogs” (2017)

    Share

    This song was released on September 11, 2017, as the first single of Shelton's 2017 album ‘Texoma Shore.’

  • 10. “Some Beach” (2004)

    Share

    On this fun twist of the song title, Blake sings of dealing with frustrations, such as being flipped off in traffic on the highway and having to wait all afternoon at the dentist's office, by wishing that he were "on some beach, somewhere."

  • 9. “Dive Bar” (with Garth Brooks) (2019)

    Share

    t’s never a bad thing when Garth Brooks asks you to join him on a duet and this song hits the mark. This song was released in 2019 in part to promote Brooks’ "Dive Bar Tour."

  • 8. “Boys ‘Round Here”(featuring Pistol Annies and Friends) (2013)

    Share

    A fun collaboration with his then-wife Miranda Lambert and her trio, the Pistol Annies. Shelton said of the song, "That song had me from the first because I thought about all the guys I know back in Tishomingo. None of them listened to The Beatles. They listened to Hank, or these days you'll hear Jason Aldean blaring out of somebody's car coming from a mile away. It's just how they are, and that song is just written exactly how I live."

  • 7. “Honeybee” (2011)

    Share

    An up-tempo joy of a song that reached number one on the US Billboard Hot Country Songs chart in July 2011. The song also received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Country Solo Performance, but it lost to Taylor Swift's "Mean."

  • 6. “Hillbilly Bone”(featuring Trace Adkins) (2009)

    Share

    A monster song and a big hit featuring Blake and his buddy Trace Adkins, who like Shelton stands 6’6. The song won the 2010 Academy of Country Music award for "Vocal Event of the Year," giving Blake his first Academy of Country Music award.

  • 5. “Ol’ Red” (2002)

    Share

    A true classic for Shelton. This song is a remake. It was first recorded by George Jones, then Kenny Rogers but it was Blake that put the real stamp on it and it’s one of his signature songs.

  • 4. “Happy Anywhere” (featuring Gwen Stefani) (2020)

    Share

    The second duet from Blake and Gwen. The song was recently nominated for an Academy of Country Music awards and Shelton joked with us if it didn’t win, the awards were rigged. It did not win. The lyrics pertain to the couple's relationship and describe being able to find happiness anywhere, which alludes to the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic.

  • 3. “Austin” (2001)

    Share

    Blake’s very first single and his first number one song. "Austin" tied a record set by Billy Ray Cyrus in 1992. Cyrus' "Achy Breaky Heart" stayed atop the chart for five weeks, setting the mark for an artist's debut single in the Broadcast Data Systems era of the chart.

  • 2. “God’s Country” (2018)

    Share

    A powerful song. Shelton first heard the song while working on his farm in Oklahoma. He said at the time, "I had to stop and just listen to this song because the song was talking to me about a place that I was in at that moment, which was a place in the middle of nowhere that meant something to me that probably nobody else could ever understand, what that is and what it is inside of me and what my connection is to the land."

  • 1.”Nobody but You” (with Gwen Stefani) (2020)

    Share

    An infectious song sung by two people in love. A duet with his soon-to-be wife Gwen Stefani, the song received the Collaborative Video of the Year accolade at the 2020 […]
