A talented young Voice finalist was joined on stage by coach Blake Shelton for a winning performance of classic country song “Islands in the Stream.”

Emily Ann Roberts was joined on stage by her coach, Blake, in the finale of the ninth season in this tribute to Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton.

“Islands in the stream that is what we are,” the two sang together in perfect unison. “No on in between, how can we be wrong?”

“Islands in the Stream” was released in 1983 and was the power duo’s second No.1 hit released together. Dolly and Kenny’s duet destroyed the charts all over the world hitting No.1 in the U.S., Australia, Austria, and Canada.

The Voice contestant, only 17-years old at the airing of the season, has a voice to be reckoned with and the charm to match. Shelton and Roberts definitely put their all into their masterful performance, inevitably going on to help Roberts earn second place in NBC’s hit singing competition.
