As the Blind Auditions for “The Voice” concluded this week, 48 contestants are competing head-to-head for a spot on NBC’s singing talent show. However, 10 up-and-coming artists stand out based on YouTube views.

Lauren Diaz amassed 7.9 million viewers of her Blind Audition act since it was published on “The Voice” official YouTube Channel on Sep. 10. For her audition piece, Diaz performed Alicia Key’s hit single “If I Ain’t Got You.” She got Alicia Keys, Miley Cyrus and Blake Shelton competing to be her coach. A self-proclaimed fan of the “Girl on Fire” singer, she chose to be part of Team Alicia after the 15-time Grammy musician serenaded her with the same audition piece.

Aside from Alicia Keys serenading Diaz with “If I Ain’t Got You, Lauren,” Diaz’ audition got a heartwarming ending after the father of her four-year-old son fell on one knee and proposed marriage as she stepped back stage.

Only Billy Gilman’s audition video comes close Diaz’ YouTube feat. An accomplished country artist since he was a kid, Gilman performed “When We Were Young.” His audition video earned 5.9 million views since it was published on Sep. 20. He got all four “The Voice” coaches but opted to join Adam Levine’s team.

In the interest of fairness, the ranking of top Blind Audition acts below are not only based on YouTube views but also based on their publishing dates. NBC aired the Blind Auditions for three weeks.
