The Voice premiered Monday night on NBC with an audition so amazing, the coaches agreed so early on she could win the show.

The Voice's tenth season kicked off its Blind Auditions last night and contestant Alisan Porter -- a former actress who played Curly Sue in the movie as a child -- blew the four coaches away, earning herself a four-chair turnaround.

Alisan sang "Blue Bayou" and Adam Levine, Christina Aguilera, Pharrell Williams and Blake Shelton all got on their feet.

Adam ran up and hugged Alisan, while Christina actually sat on the stage to prove she worshiped the artist and desperately wanted to be her coach. Blake argued he's the "most fun" coach to work with, and Pharrell complimented how she performed "so eloquently."

Christina insisted she wanted to make history with Alisan and win the show together with her amazing pipes. Adam called the performance "beautiful, flawless and pitch perfect." He was astonished by her voice, calling it an "impossible gift" to find. Adam then pointed out matter-of-factly that she'll win The Voice.

In the end, Alisan opted to be on "Team Christina," and she was thrilled. Alisan walked up and congratulated Christina for being the first winner of The Voice, and she said, "I hope so!"

Two other artists also got the attention of all four coaches, who in turn fought to have them on their teams.

Caity Peters sang "Jealous." Christina dubbed it a beautiful performance and asked to hold her hand to the finish line as her female supporter. The song brought Pharrell to tears, and Adam said her vocal was "heart-wrenchingly beautiful" and "infallibly unique."

After Adam noted Caity is "on the cusp of greatness," Blake argued she's already reached greatness. In the end, Caity picked Pharrell as her coach.

Mary Sarah took the stage with "Where The Boys Are" and basically brought the coaches back to a different time.

Adam was impressed by Mary's consistency and powerful upper-register, while Christina was taken aback by the note she belted out in the stratosphere. Pharrell said Mary has a classic voice and it was clear the song moved her. Blake bonded with her over her song choice and loved how she sounded like she was from a different era.

After much debate, Mary selected "Team Blake" and he was ecstatic. 

The Voice's premiere broadcast also featured Paxton Ingram, Nick Hagelin, Mike Schiavo, Bryan Bautista, Abby Celso and John Gilman making a team.

An especially memorable moment was when Mike sang a spontaneous duet of "She Will Be Loved" onstage with Maroon 5's frontman. Adam, who ended up being Mike's coach, had been egged on by his fellow coaches to take the stage.
