WATCH: BigCountry Rocks Bon Jovi’s ‘It’s My Life’ on ‘The Voice’

Before BigCountry performed on the first Live Show of Season 30 of The Voice last night, his coach, Queen Latifah, predicted he would “rip the stage to shreds.” And it’s safe to say he lived up to that expectation as he brought a new level of energy to his performance of Bon Jovi’s “It’s My Life.”

With this week’s theme centered on Y2K hits, BigCountry chose a song that pushed him outside his comfort zone. Viewers got to see a different side of the singer as he stepped away from his usual country sound and leaned into his rocker sound with the hard-hitting anthem.

He gave the performance everything he had from start to finish, keeping the energy high the entire time. His powerful vocals filled the venue and were accompanied by electrifying guitar riffs and strong background vocals that added even more intensity to the anthem. With a spot in the Top 10 on the line, BigCountry knew he had to make every second count as he performed in hopes of earning America’s votes.

Riley Green was first to comment on the delivery, making sure to remind BigCountry that he tried to get him on the team from the start, knowing that the hopeful act had a huge potential to make it far in this competition.

“I knew BigCountry wouldn’t be afraid to take on a big song like that. You crushed it, man. That was awesome,” he added.

Queen was clearly overwhelmed with pride and excitement for her team member.

She stated, “I love me some BigCountry…I love seeing you up there with all of that, all of those effects. Everything that was just around you is more matching your personality and that big voice you have and that big song you just sang, let’s go.”

BigCountry and Mia Knight were named the top two artists on Team Queen, earning them both a spot in the Top 10 and moving them forward in the competition.

The Season 30 competition continues with Y2K Night Part 2 on Monday, November 16, 2026, at 9 p.m. ET on NBC.

America will have the chance to send in their live votes via TikTok and SMS to decide who advances and who goes home, with results revealed live at the end of the night.
