In a night unlike any other, The Voice turned its stage into a cathedral of rock as contestants across global editions united to honor the one and only Ace Frehley — the cosmic guitarist whose riffs once set the universe on fire. One by one, they stepped into the spotlight — guitars blazing, voices trembling — to deliver raw, soul-drenched renditions of KISS anthems like “Shock Me,” “Cold Gin,” and “New York Groove.” The stage lights shimmered in Frehley’s signature silver and blue, while a massive projection of his Space Ace persona lit up behind them, as if watching from the stars. The performances built to a fever pitch when all contestants joined for an electrifying, tear-soaked finale — “Rock and Roll All Nite.” The crowd roared, the coaches stood in silence, and for a few unforgettable minutes, it felt like Ace was back — playing through every note, every heart.
