"The Voice contestants Angie Johnson and Cheesa battled it out with a powerful performance of &amp;#039;Total Eclipse of the Heart&amp;#039; on Monday night (March 5).  Military singer and YouTube sensation Angie and Hawaiian musician Cheesa were paired together by their mentor Cee Lo Green on the first battle round of the second season.  They had received guidance from Cee Lo&amp;#039;s guest mentors Ne-Yo and Babyface before the performance. Watch Angie and Cheesa&amp;#039;s battle below:   Adam kicked off the coaches&amp;#039; critique by saying both girls shook off their nerves at the beginning and were &amp;quot;really powerful&amp;quot;, but Cheesa probably edged it for him, although it was close.  Blake agreed neither had a bad moment during the performance so he would judge on clarity and diction, which meant Angie was his winner. Christina agreed that she would go for Angie because she hit some amazing notes and improved as the song went along, although Cheesa had a &amp;quot;powerful voice&amp;quot;.  Cee Lo said: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m very proud of both of you. I feel like a proud father up here and I&amp;#039;m in awe of your natural ability. It felt like a real battle.&amp;quot; In the end, he gave his vote to Cheesa for her articulation, although he said Angie brought emotion and connection to the song. Speaking to social media correspondent Christina Milian afterwards, both women said it had been an &amp;quot;intense&amp;quot; experience, with Angie saying: &amp;quot;You could cut the tension with a knife!&amp;quot; As for Angie&amp;#039;s plans for the future, she said: &amp;quot;I don&amp;#039;t really know. I haven&amp;#039;t been home in Nashville for longer than a couple of weeks so I don&amp;#039;t really know what will happen. I live in a musical city so I&amp;#039;m sure there is work to be had!&amp;quot; The Voice airs Mondays at 8/7c on NBC &amp;gt; Read Digital Spy&amp;#039;s full The Voice headlines Watch Angie and Cheesa talking to Christina Milian below:   Browse a gallery of pictures from the first battle round below:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
