Carter Lloyd Horne Performs 'Heartbreak Hotel' On The Voice

Country singer Carter Lloyd Horne performs the iconic Elvis Presley song ‘Heartbreak Hotel’ on The Voice.

Carter is part of the Top 24 on this popular singing competition and he’s a standout on Team Blake. His crooner voice was the perfect compliment to this classic blues song.

“Well, since my baby left me
Well, I found a new place to dwell
Well, it's down at the end of Lonely Street
At Heartbreak Hotel
Where I'll be--where I get so lonely, baby
Well, I'm so lonely
I get so lonely, I could die”

‘Heartbreak Hotel’ was originally released in 1956 and was an instant hit. It was Elvis Presley’s first million-seller. It was even inducted into the Grammy Hall Of Fame in 1995.

Today, 20-year-old Carter Lloyd Horne is lending his voice to the tune and it’s absolute perfection. When we first met Carter, he impressed both Kelly Clarkson and Blake Shelton with his country blind audition.

We learned that Carter came from a wealthy family, but when the recession hit, they lost everything. There was even a time when the family lived out of a hotel. But a visit to church with a friend ignited Carter’s interest in music and he decided to pursue that as a career.

This young man has certainly come a long way and now he’s taking on one of the most famous songs of the 50’s. This crooner definitely has some vocal talent and I’m looking forward to his next song selection. What about you?
