Ruby Leigh's stunning 'Long Long Time' performance on The Voice leaves judges awestruck

The competition on NBC's "The Voice" Season 24 has reached a fever pitch as the Playoffs stage sets the stage for nail-biting decisions. With Team Reba down to five contestants due to Tom Nitti's unexpected exit, the pressure was immense for the remaining artists.

Ruby Leigh's Brilliant Strategy

Sixteen-year-old yodeling sensation Ruby Leigh stepped up with a strategic song choice, opting for Linda Ronstadt's timeless "Long Long Time." This choice not only showcased her vocal maturity but also resonated with audiences, thanks to the song's recent revival in popular culture. Gwen Stefani was moved to hyperbole by Ruby's performance, suggesting that a record by Ruby could "save the world." Niall Horan echoed this sentiment, praising it as the best version of the song he'd ever heard.
