Update 2: The 12PM ET “The Voice” voting deadline is here, and one of Monday’s songs is positioned inside the Top 10 of the all-genre US iTunes sales chart.
Brennley Brown’s “Long Long Time,” that song, will accordingly receive a 5x multiplier on its overnight iTunes vote count.
In a true dagger, Lauren Duski’s “Lord, I Hope This Day Is Good” reached #10 Tuesday morning but had fallen to #11 as of the deadline. The rule is that the song must be in the Top 10 when voting closes in order to receive the bonus.
Unless “The Voice” looks at a different data source**, Lauren will not receive the vote multiplier this week.
Here is how all 12 songs were positioned at the close of voting:
7) Brennley Brown – Team Gwen – Long Long Time
11) Lauren Duski – Team Blake – Lord, I Hope This Day Is Good
15) Hunter Plake – Team Gwen – Somebody That I Used To Know
28) Chris Blue – Team Alicia – Love And Happiness
40) Vanessa Ferguson – Team Alicia – A Song For You
42) Stephanie Rice – Team Alicia – White Flag
46) Jesse Larson – Team Adam – Make You Feel My Love
60) TSoul – Team Blake – Always On My Mind
67) Aliyah Moulden – Team Blake – (Love Is Like A) Heat Wave
76) Troy Ramey – Team Gwen – Free Fallin’
120) Lilli Passero – Team Adam – Man! I Feel Like A Woman
209) Mark Isaiah – Team Adam – One Dance
**Editor’s Note: The Apple.com chart, as an example, listed “Lord, I Hope This Day Is Good” in the Top 10. The inaccurate chart is missing some key hip-hop tracks — including Kendrick Lamar’s #5-ranked “HUMBLE” — but if “The Voice” happened to use it when awarding bonuses, it would have seen Lauren Duski’s song in the Top 10.

Update: With less than three hours remaining in the voting window, it appears two of Monday’s “The Voice” songs will earn 5x iTunes multiplier bonuses.
Brennley Brown’s “Long Long time” and Lauren Duski’s “Lord, I Hope This Day Is Good” are both in the Top 10 on the all-genre US iTunes sales chart.
If they are in that region when the clock strikes 12PM ET, they will earn the coveted bonuses.
Here is how all twelve of Monday’s songs are positioned as of 9:15AM ET:
7) Brennley Brown – Team Gwen – Long Long Time
10) Lauren Duski – Team Blake – Lord, I Hope This Day Is Good
16) Hunter Plake – Team Gwen – Somebody That I Used To Know
27) Chris Blue – Team Alicia – Love And Happiness
40) Vanessa Ferguson – Team Alicia – A Song For You
43) Stephanie Rice – Team Alicia – White Flag
46) Jesse Larson – Team Adam – Make You Feel My Love
55) TSoul – Team Blake – Always On My Mind
67) Aliyah Moulden – Team Blake – (Love Is Like A) Heat Wave
77) Troy Ramey – Team Gwen – Free Fallin’
118) Lilli Passero – Team Adam – Man! I Feel Like A Woman
212) Mark Isaiah – Team Adam – One Dance

Prior to the conclusion of the west coast broadcast, one of Monday’s “The Voice” songs entered the Top 10 on the US iTunes sales chart.
Brennley Brown’s “Long Long Time” was up to #9 as of 12:55AM ET.
It will almost certainly continue climbing in the coming hours, which means the Team Gwen member is on track to receive the coveted iTunes multiplier bonus.
If “Long Long Time” holds a Top 10 position at the 12PM ET voting deadline, its iTunes vote (sales) total will be multiplied by 5.
No other song from Monday’s “The Voice” presently holds a Top 10 position.
The closest is Lauren Duski’s “Lord, I Hope This Day Is Good.” The Team Blake contestant’s song is currently #13 on the all-genre chart.
Here is how all twelve of Monday’s performances are positioned as of 12:55AM ET Tuesday. Headline Planet will provide an update when the voting window closes:
