The Voice is about to kick off its all-new season on Monday, September 22 and we couldn't be more excited about it. Familiar coaches Adam Levine and Blake Shelton will be welcoming new coaches Gwen Stefani and Pharrell Williams for the seventh season of the hit singing competition.

We decided to go through the past few seasons of contestants that have appeared on the series to bring to you a list of the best songs that have been released from alumni of the NBC series.

To get you pumped for the seventh season we give you the top 5 songs sung by contestants from the past six seasons including Danielle Bradbery, Javier Colon, and Cassadee Pope.

5. Melanie Martinez- "Carousel"

Martinez, who was featured on Team Adam during season three of The Voice, has signed to Atlantic Records after finishing in sixth place on the show. Since leaving the series she has gone on to released an EP titled "Dollhouse," and her new album, Cry Baby will be released in the new few months. Her song "Carousel" is featured in the trailer for American Horror Story's newest season Freak Show.

4. Javier Colon- "As Long as We Got Love"

Colon was the first ever winner of The Voice, taking home the trophy during season one of the singing series for Team Adam. He released album Come Through For You through Universal Records, which spawned the hit song, "As Long as We Got Love" with Natasha Bedingfield.

3. The Swon Brothers-"Later On"

 

The Swon Brother's finished season 4 in third place behind winner Danielle Bradbery and second place finalist Michelle Chamuel. After The Voice they went on to secure a record deal with Arista Nashville, and their debut single "Later On" peaked at number 21 on the US Country charts. Their new album will be released on October 14, 2014.

2. Danielle Bradbery- "Heart Of Dixie"

Danielle Bradbery, who we personally haven't been able to stop listening to for the last couple of weeks, might just be one of our favorite winners of The Voice so far. The country singer, who finished in first place on the fourth season of the show, released her self-titled debut album last November. Her lead single "Heart Of Dixie" went on to peak at number 16 on the US country charts and her song "My Day" was also featured as the theme for the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics.

1. Cassadee Pope- "Wasting All These Tears"

Cassadee Pope along with Danielle Bradbery are two of the most successful breakout stars of all the past seasons of the singing competition. Pope's debut album Frame by Frame debuted at number 1 on the US Country album charts when it was released in October 2013. The singer also went on to have the highest charting single of any alumni on The Voice, with her hit single "Wasting All These Tears," which peaked at number 5 on the US Country charts.

In addition to the coaches, this season has an A-List roster of mentors joining the series.

Country chart-toppers Little Big Town will be helping out Team Blake this season. While some might think that Blake is going to have an unfair advantage by having four times the mentoring power, we couldn't be more excited about seeing the country crooners joining the series. Will they be able to secure Shelton's fourth win on The Voice?

Fellow returning coach, Adam Levine, has asked the one and only Stevie Nicks to help his team out. The Fleetwood Mac member is about to bring her decades of show business experience to the NBC series. With her help we are sure that Team Adam will definitely bewitch America and secure their votes.

Pharrell Williams is enlisting one of the biggest names in the R&B world to help him mentor his team. Alicia Keys will be making her Voice debut as she helps William's team pick the right songs in order to win American votes.

Gwen Stefani is keeping the mentoring all in the family as she has asked hubby Gavin Rossdale to join her for her Voice debut. Rossdale is the lead singer of the 90's band Bush and he has also had a very successful career as a solo artist, so he will definitely have some great advice to give Stefani's team.

The Voice premieres its seventh season tonight at 8 pm on NBC.
