For his THE VOICE Top 9 performance, Team Blake’s Ian Flanigan had an usual song to sing: Sarah McLachlan’s “Angel.”

With Flanigan’s voice, he was able to give the song a unique twist—something Kelly Clarkson anticipated when she suggested the song to his coach, Blake Shelton.

“I found out that Kelly suggested it, and took it a little more serious,” Flanigan told reporters in the video below. “Just because when somebody of that caliber is taking the time to think of something that could be great for you, you instantly respect the decision…I was definitely caught off-guard by that suggestion, but at the same time, being an artist, I want to be pushed out of my comfort zone and grow from it. So every song is a growing experience and I was really grateful to be able to perform that tonight.”
