About Wintersong (The Voice Performance)

“For a little bit, I didn’t think it was real,” Jake said of his Voice experience. “And every step of the way, I said (to his girlfriend), ‘Alright honey, I’ll be home next week. Or I’ll be home after battles. Or I’ll be home after knockouts. “I continued to doubt myself every step of the way.” That’s why the confidence coach Kelly Clarkson showed in him was so important, Jake said. Kelly wanted little credit for the win, saying “I just sat there and encouraged him.” Jake, for instance, was responsible for choosing “Wintersong” as their holiday duet Monday night. And for several of his other song choices.
