The Voice of Holland (season 5)
The Voice of Holland is the fifth season of the Dutch reality singing competition, created by media tycoon John de Mol. It aired during 2014 on RTL4. Martijn Krabbé and Wendy van Dijk returned as co-hosts, while Jamai Loman replaced Winston Gerschtanowitz as host of the red room. Marco Borsato, Trijntje Oosterhuis, Ilse DeLange and Ali B returned as coaches.
One of the important premises of the show is the quality of the singing talent. Four coaches, themselves popular performing artists, train the talents in their group and occasionally perform with them. Talents are selected in blind auditions, where the coaches cannot see, but only hear the auditioner.
That competition included future Eurovision winner Duncan Laurence as Duncan de Moor.
Coaches
For the first time in this show's history, all 4 coaches from Season 4 have returned for season 5.Teams

The Battle Rounds
The battle rounds determine which candidates from each team move on to the live shows. Two contestants from within a team are paired together to sing the same song, and ultimately, only eight candidates per team advance to the live shows. Continuing from season 4, each coach is allowed to steal one contestant from another coach's team. New for this season is that the studio audience can vote on contestants. They can vote for that contestant , thus helping influence the coach's decision on who moves on. Furthermore, since both Ilse and Ali B ended the blind auditions with 15 contestants each, 3 from each team were required to battle and one was taken through, while the others were then able to be stolen.;Color key:

Live Shows
The Clashes
New this season are the Live Clash Rounds. In the first two live shows have 2 contestants sing 2 songs, going from one contestant to another and then repeating that process one more time. Each coach pairs two contestant to face. Immediately after The Clash gives points to each contestant. In the meantime, people can also give points to contestants through calls, text messages or votes via their smartphone or tablet from the free Red Room app during a voting window. All points are added up, and this determines which contestant is the winner of The Clash and continues to live show 3.The Clashes 1

Cross Battles/Semi Finals
The semifinal is slightly different than the other live shows. In 'The Cross Battles', the coaches go into battle with contestants from other teams. By a draw, two contestants of different teams were paired. These two contestants competed against each other, but singing their own song. Viewers at home determined the winner of the cross battles. Four finalists were chosen, but the chances were high that a coach would not have a finalist for the final. This happened to Ilse Delange when her remaining two contestants were eliminated.;Competitor performances
