A clearly delighted Adam Levine was picked to coach Judith Hill during the Season 4 premiere of NBC’s ‘The Voice’ Monday night.

Hill has an impressive musical history, having gained national attention when she sang ‘Heal the World’ at the televised memorial service for Michael Jackson. In fact, she was to have been a featured vocalist on the ill-fated ‘This Is It’ tour.

Last night Judith performed an outstanding rendition of ‘What a Girl Wants,’ prompting all four coaches to swivel in their chairs.

The Maroon 5 rocker was hell-bent to have Hill on his team. He announced, “I’m gonna light myself on fire to make sure you’re on my team.”

Debuting last night were new coaches Usher Raymond and Shakira. The Colombian singer and her Spanish football player boyfriend Gerard Pique welcomed a son Milan in late January.

Will Hill make it all the way? Adam Levine thinks so with this tweet, “Welcome to #TeamAdam @judith_hill #VoicePremiere !!!!! I know it is too early to call it….but I’m calling it. #TEAMADAM wins.”

Blind auditions were held from Jan. 12 to Feb 17 in Chicago, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Houston and New York City. Those episodes will air in the coming weeks on ‘The Voice’ Mondays and Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET.
