Her Battle Rounds performance with Clinton Washington was actually more of a real duet (Pharrell called it the best Battle of the season), as both singers showcased their abilities without sacrificing the true power of “Stay.”
“I never went into the battle thinking this is a competition and I need to beat Clinton,” says Carney. “Because that’s not how I wanted to look at it. I was excited to go into a performance with Clinton (and) sing a duet with him and find a way to make both of us shine.”
