10 Reasons Why Fultonville’s Sawyer Fredericks Will Win ‘The Voice’
UPDATE: AS predicted, Sawyer brings home the win on The Voice.
Sawyer Fredericks has been the frontrunner on this season of 'The Voice' since his blind audition. We'll find out if the Fultonville teen will bring home the win tonight, but it's just a foregone conclusion at this point, isn't it? Here's 10 reason Sawyer should win The Voice.
Last To Sing, First Saved
They say you save the best for last and every Monday night Sawyer sings last. Tuesday night he's the first to move into the next round. Not once has the teen been in danger of going home.
Social Media Followers
Sawyer Fredericks has almost as many Twitter followers as the other three combined at 70.1 thousands. The closest to him is Meghan Kinsey at 43.2 thousand, and she had the backing of Nashville when she was in Steel Magnolia. Facebook tells the same story with Fredericks racking up 97,000 followers. Meghan comes in second at only 36,000.
Ray LaMontagne Writes Song
Sawyer's unique sound caught the attention of his idol Ray LaMontagne. Not only did he perform LaMontagne's 'Trouble' during the playoff rounds, LaMontagne wrote a song JUST for Sawyer to sing on the finals. That has NEVER happened on The Voice.

iTunes Charts
Sawyer Fredericks has been in the top 5 on the iTunes charts every week. If people are buying his music, they're voting for him to win too.
Hometown Rally Breaks Records
When Sawyer returned homed to Fultonville for a Voice rally, there were more fans showing their support at Fonda Speedway and at his Palace Theater show than ANY artist in Voice history.
4 Chair Turn
Sawyer is the only one left who received a 4 chair turn during his blind audition.
Interview YouTube Views
When Sawyer updated us on his Voice progress throughout the season, his interview had more views on YouTube than last year's winner, Craig Wayne Boyd....by thousands.
His Humble, Shy Attitude
Sawyer may only be 16 years-old but his talent hasn't gone to his head. His shyness is endearing. His humbleness is inspiring. Rather than tooting his own horn, which he has every right to do with that much talent, Sawyer spends his time supporting all the other artists in the competition.
Christina Aguilera Said So
While appearing on Live with Kelly & Michael, Christina Aguilera was asked who she thought would win. Her answer? SAWYER FREDERICKS!
Raw Talent
There's no denying Sawyer's natural talent and at age SIXTEEN. You can't teach what Sawyer has. You're just born with it and America loves it. His performance of 'Simple Man' has over a million views on YouTube.
Tune in to NBC at 9pm tonight for a star studded finale with Luke Bryan débuting his new song and a number of other stars taking the stage before this season's Voice winner is crowned. Do you think it'll be Sawyer too?
