Short filmTranscript
00:00:00I've always wanted to pursue music as a career but I don't fit the mold of the standard performer
00:00:12this isn't just a hobby this is what I want to do for the rest of my life I just really
00:00:20yeah I want to be taken seriously I've been very new to seeing so you know putting my voice on the
00:00:29line can be a bit nerve-wracking like whoa like this isn't singing in the shower anymore like
00:00:34what the hell's happening here tonight a fresh batch of young and undiscovered artists step into
00:00:44the spotlight holy cow that was one of the greatest performances we've seen can you believe a voice
00:00:54like that hasn't been heard like it's a crime as our coaches fight harder than ever to fill their
00:01:00teams come on I just I would just like to point out that you truly belong on team Kate that's bullshit
00:01:07and an unexpected discovery really good leads to a massive voice first I wanted to do a blind
00:01:23audition like is that even possible that's not possible I don't know if we're allowed to do that
00:01:27I'm Kellen James I am a secondary school teacher
00:01:56I like to think that I'm a cool teacher my kids have given the yes to that so
00:02:04it is so important to teach teens how to love themselves I struggle with it myself
00:02:15and I don't claim that it's an easy thing to do my weight has put me off performing I don't I don't fit
00:02:27the mold of a standard performer it's taken a lot of courage for me to be here tonight the push for
00:02:36me to be here is to inspire my kids and for them to see that they can be who they want to be the song
00:02:42I'm singing for my audition tonight is good as hell by Lizzo Lizzo is empowerment for not just the big
00:02:49girls but for the big boys singing to the back of four chairs feels different because people aren't
00:03:01looking at me they're not they're not judging me based on how I look they're judging me based on how
00:03:05I sound and I need to nail it I don't want my insecurities hold me back anymore

00:05:11What just happened
00:05:15Listen to that take that in
00:05:19Wow congratulations and what an incredible performance, so what's your name and where have you come from?
00:05:25Kia ora, my name is Kellen James. I'm 25 from Aotearoa, New Zealand
00:05:33You're 25? Yeah, where have you been hiding?
00:05:36Well, I love performing. I love singing, but obviously I'm not a
00:05:42skinny or thin person. I
00:05:47have been told a lot of the times that I
00:05:51I have a great voice. However, no one in the industry would take me seriously because of my weight
00:05:57Who's who says that to you? I want to call them up. I want to talk to them
00:06:02Just people who like to have an opinion on everything
00:06:05It's taken me a long time to build the courage to be able to stand especially
00:06:10Especially here and just put my whole self out there
00:06:18Kellen I mean you're amazing. You're amazing. Don't let anyone tell you any different
00:06:24Thank you for coming to the voice. Thank you. Thank you. I loved it
00:06:28That makes me really pissed off that people said that to you because when I had my chair turned and I couldn't see you
00:06:36I could already hear that you had a stunning voice, but when I turned my chair around and I saw you
00:06:43It was even better. Yeah
00:06:45100%
00:06:46Every time you toss your hair I just got this like full body jolt of happiness and you have this radiant spirit
00:06:58And it's so powerful and everybody in the room could feel that right
00:07:06I think I think your true home is is team Kate it might not be the obvious choice
00:07:12But there's absolutely no one like you on my team. You're stunning. I love you. Thank you so much, Kate
00:07:20Kellen way to go dude, holy cow
00:07:24You have a vibe you have the talent you've got the energy
00:07:29One of the greatest singers in history and someone who was really dear to me personally luther vandross
00:07:35He struggled with his weight and if he were here. I believe he would tell you
00:07:40To just own who you are and the people that that that say those things can nick off
00:07:48Yeah, definitely agree with that
00:07:50Yeah, you have such a bright future and I just loved watching your performance. It was fantastic
00:07:56So I would love to work with you. Thank you so much. Thank you
00:08:00I absolutely loved that performance
00:08:03You just embody this like superstar is that it's so
00:08:10It's like it's so inspiring to watch you. I was just so in that performance
00:08:15So, I mean obviously you can see I'm a huge fan and I would love to work with you
00:08:20I would love to mentor you. I would love to work with that voice
00:08:23I do feel like you could explore so many different genres, and I think we're a really good fit
00:08:31Thank you so much, Melanie. Thank you
00:08:34Helen, it's time for you to choose
00:08:36Helen, I haven't I haven't pitched
00:08:44I haven't done my pitch. I've got I've got yeah, I've got something to help you decide
00:08:48Hey guys
00:08:55It's Robert Williams here and about to tell the world something I've never told before if it wasn't for ronan none of me would happen
00:09:02I could go on and on about what ronan's done for me in my career. He's basically
00:09:08Guided me to be the man that I am today and without him. I'd be nothing. I suggest you go for team ronan
00:09:19Did you get writing credit on that?
00:09:23Kellen it's up to you, but you know if I were you I'd come to team ronan
00:09:40I really appreciate all the turns and I appreciate all the love it warms my heart so much

00:11:19Bye
00:11:24Oh my gosh
00:11:28Look if anything was going to get me this artist it was Robbie Williams doing a personal video
00:11:32Saying how awesome his mate is and that he should pick me and I didn't get it
00:11:40I'm just doing the laugh of honour
00:11:49I am so happy I honestly was quite emotional
00:11:54Nothing brings me more joy than beating Ronan at something
00:11:59But then when I've also beaten a pitch from Robbie
00:12:04Can this day get any better?
00:12:07Hey I'll make some noise for our coaches ladies and gentlemen

00:12:55Are you dizzy?

00:13:06Really good
00:13:07Really good
00:13:07Really good
00:13:07Wow
00:13:09Valerie
00:13:11Wow
00:13:17Wow
00:13:18She's just amazing
00:13:19How long did she get a hat?
00:13:20What do you reckon?
00:13:21When did we get her to audition?
00:13:23That was unbelievable
00:13:25Hey
00:13:25Why
00:13:26I wanted to do a blind audition
00:13:30What's what's
00:13:31Oh no yeah
00:13:32What's your name?
00:13:33Alyssa
00:13:33That was incredible
00:13:34But how do we
00:13:36Like is that even possible?
00:13:37That's not possible
00:13:37I don't know if we're allowed to do that
00:13:44Would you be up for doing a blind audition?
00:13:48Yeah
00:13:48I love breaking rules
00:13:51Yeah
00:13:52We'll ask for forgiveness not permission
00:13:54From the grandstand
00:13:56To the blind auditions
00:14:04Coming up
00:14:05That'd be slight harder to be even more bummed now
00:14:07than you can tell
00:14:08Yeah
00:14:09It's Alyssa's moment to shine
00:14:12I'm still in shock
00:14:14It's a dream come true
00:14:16But will her voice be enough?
00:14:18If we're going to do a blind audition
00:14:19The only space that we have is to do it
00:14:22Today
00:14:22You do not have much time at all
00:14:25Okay
00:14:26Do the thing
00:14:26Yeah
00:14:27I love the voice
00:14:49You're discovering
00:14:51This untapped raw talent
00:14:54The beauty of being a coach
00:14:55Is that you can take all of the experience
00:14:57That you've had over the years
00:14:59And you can nurture people that haven't had those opportunities
00:15:02And really help them grow to their full potential
00:15:05I'm blown away with the amount of young artists that are braving the stage
00:15:12Undiscovered gems
00:15:14And this show is all about finding them
00:15:18What I love about young singers is that they don't know what their limitations are
00:15:22They are fearless and they're willing to take risks
00:15:37This is The Voice season 14
00:15:39And I'm Boris Bendrops
00:15:41I'm 18 and I'm from Castlemaine Victoria
00:15:44I only started singing very recently
00:15:48I'm a drummer
00:15:50And I've drummed before and I've drummed on a few stages
00:15:54However not singing
00:15:57We're a fair way from Castlemaine
00:15:59Yeah we are a fair bit from Castlemaine
00:16:02I'm very nervous because I don't know
00:16:04It's my first time singing on a big stage
00:16:07Like a stage stage
00:16:08I don't know I really want to impress you guys
00:16:12I really want to impress the coaches
00:16:14And I want to sing the best I can for everyone
00:16:17Well if you sing like you sing in the shower
00:16:19I think you'll be good
00:16:21I think the shower is my comfort zone
00:16:23You certainly get a lot of practice in the shower
00:16:26I will try my absolute best to make sure that it soothes the ears rather than breaks them
00:16:35So I actually decided to give singing a crack
00:16:37I was at music camp with a bunch of my friends
00:16:39And we were just chilling in the room
00:16:41We were just playing band stuff
00:16:42Someone came in and they were like play some music play some music
00:16:46I'll just yap my head off
00:16:48They came and they were like oh my god this is amazing
00:16:50I was like whoa like this isn't singing in the shower anymore
00:16:54Like what the hell's happening here it's actually working out
00:16:57And then since then I've just kind of been like on my own little journey
00:17:00And now I'm here
00:17:03Once in a while you might catch me dreaming
00:17:07I just love to sing and I just love to have fun
00:17:09So I'll make the best out of it every time I do
00:17:14I'm just going to go out there and give them my best shot
00:17:16Yeah
00:17:20Oh here she comes
00:17:28One time boy she'll chew your bone
00:17:32Oh here she comes
00:17:34She's a man eater
00:17:37She'll only come out at night
00:17:40The lean and hungry time
00:17:44And nothing is new
00:17:46I've seen her here before
00:17:51Oh what you've been waiting
00:17:54Oh she's sitting with you
00:17:57But her eyes are on the door

00:18:59You're real
00:19:01How you doing?
00:19:02Hi
00:19:03Hi
00:19:04Is this on?
00:19:05It's on
00:19:06Hello
00:19:07I can't believe I'm actually seeing real versions of you guys
00:19:11This is crazy
00:19:13So when you ended the song you looked a little surprised
00:19:17Did you not even realise we turned?
00:19:19No I was so into it
00:19:21Like everyone was cheering it was really nice
00:19:23Yes
00:19:25Yes
00:19:27I'm not usually
00:19:29I'm very new to singing
00:19:31And it's not normal for me to be on like a stage like nearly this big
00:19:35So like I was so into it that I was just locked in
00:19:38And then when I came up I was like
00:19:39Oh my god
00:19:41What?
00:19:42So hold on, hold on
00:19:44Let's start at the beginning
00:19:46What's your name?
00:19:47My name's Boris
00:19:48I'm 18
00:19:49I'm from Castlemaine, Victoria
00:19:51It's about
00:19:54It's about two hours out of Melbourne
00:19:56So it's like rural near Bendigo
00:19:58Okay
00:19:59Oh Bendigo
00:20:00Yeah I've heard of Bendigo
00:20:01Yeah
00:20:02I'm learning my Australia
00:20:04It's a big place
00:20:05It is
00:20:06When you're British you're like whoa this place is pretty huge
00:20:08Yeah it does get like that
00:20:09Well good to meet you
00:20:10And you said you're pretty new to this
00:20:12So how long have you been singing?
00:20:13So first and foremost I'm a drummer
00:20:15And I've been doing drumming for a while
00:20:17I've never really had a singing lesson
00:20:19I played Battle of the Bands in the local like town
00:20:22And that's kind of it
00:20:23Yeah
00:20:24And yeah I only recently started kicking off singing this year
00:20:28So yeah
00:20:29It's kind of crazy
00:20:30Do you know what?
00:20:31I think being a drummer that makes sense
00:20:33Because you've got great timing
00:20:34I love
00:20:35I can't believe you've not been singing that long
00:20:38It was lovely to turn around and see you so in it
00:20:40Thank you so much
00:20:42How in it you were
00:20:43And you're right because everyone in this room was in it
00:20:46Thank you
00:20:47Thank you everyone in the room
00:20:49Yeah
00:20:50I think
00:20:51I think I need
00:20:52Someone like you
00:20:53On team Melanie
00:20:54Yeah
00:20:55So I you know
00:20:56Just keep that in mind
00:20:57That's really good to hear
00:21:00Thank you so much
00:21:02Boris
00:21:03We need more pop stars called Boris
00:21:05Yeah
00:21:06They're pretty unusual
00:21:07It's a gap in the market
00:21:08They're my own species
00:21:10You know I love that you were so in the flow
00:21:13That you didn't even notice what was happening in front of you
00:21:16No
00:21:17I could tell that
00:21:18I could tell that you were fully living and breathing inside that song
00:21:21The reason I turned my chair is because I really appreciated where you took that version
00:21:27I think you've got a beautiful voice and I was in the moment
00:21:31I was with you every step of the way and I'd love to explore further where we can go with this
00:21:36Obviously you're a consummate musician, you're already a drummer
00:21:40I think that comes across
00:21:41Yeah
00:21:42Yeah
00:21:43Yeah
00:21:44I think you've got something really, really special
00:21:45And I'd love to help you
00:21:46Thank you so much
00:21:47Thank you so much
00:21:48That's really sweet
00:21:49Thank you so much

00:21:56Josh, good on you Boris
00:21:57It's just amazing
00:21:58I didn't turn

00:22:00I could hear the nerves
00:22:01And I think you're still
00:22:03To be honest
00:22:04I think you're still figuring out your voice
00:22:07But
00:22:08Have you ever listened to Phil Collins?
00:22:09Yes, of course
00:22:10I've listened to Phil Collins

00:23:05I tried my hardest
00:23:06Yeah, you found the love in the room there, right?
00:23:08Yeah
00:23:09Lovely
00:23:10What a lovely kid
00:23:12Sweetheart
00:23:13He's adorable
00:23:14I want to hang out with him
00:23:15Because he's just
00:23:16He's got such a sweet personality
00:23:18Great spirit
00:23:19What a spirit
00:23:20Yeah, if nobody turned
00:23:21You could tell he'd still be the same
00:23:22Yeah, he'd be like
00:23:23This was awesome I was here
00:23:24Exactly
00:23:25Beautiful
00:23:26Love that
00:23:27Good on him
00:23:28Who have we got here?
00:23:29There he is
00:23:30There he is
00:23:31Yay
00:23:32Look
00:23:33I was crying
00:23:34Oh my god
00:23:35Oh my goodness
00:23:36Well done
00:23:37How good was that?
00:23:38Thank you so much for turning
00:23:39Oh my goodness
00:23:40Well done
00:23:41I could not turn
00:23:42He was so excited
00:23:43He was brilliant
00:23:44Hey, nice to meet you
00:23:45You're all right
00:23:46Oh my goodness
00:23:47You were great
00:23:48Thank you
00:23:49You were great
00:23:50It was so good
00:23:51Could you believe that?
00:23:52We actually got
00:23:53Right
00:23:54You were so fantastic
00:23:55That was amazing
00:23:58That was insane
00:23:59The drummer boy inside me
00:24:01Is definitely pretty happy
00:24:02It's a pretty big achievement
00:24:04You know
00:24:05Going from hidden things
00:24:06To singing things
00:24:07Is very different
00:24:08That is the most surreal experience ever
00:24:10I had the tears
00:24:11I had the tears
00:24:12I had the tears
00:24:13Look at my make-up
00:24:14I hope my make-up stayed nice
00:24:17Yay
00:24:20I love him
00:24:22Sweetheart
00:24:23He's like
00:24:24He's my little ray of light
00:24:25He's so sweet
00:24:26He's so sweet
00:24:27He's so sweet
00:24:28He's a gorgeous spirit
00:24:29And that power in his voice
00:24:30Yeah
00:24:31It just kept going didn't it?
00:24:32Yeah
00:24:33With the right guidance
00:24:34Which you'll give him of course
00:24:35I mean he's got amazing potential
00:24:37He really has
00:24:38Well just bringing his sweetness
00:24:40And personality into his singing
00:24:42Yeah
00:24:43Will be a winner
00:24:44Because he exudes love
00:24:46And openness
00:24:47And so like
00:24:48If he's got that in his heart
00:24:49Yeah
00:24:50Just get it out of his mouth
00:24:51And you're there
00:24:52And he's super musical
00:24:53Yeah
00:24:54Like you can tell he's
00:24:55He's a smart musician
00:24:56Uh huh
00:25:02Team Melanie C
00:25:03Is so strong
00:25:05I'm very excited
00:25:06I'm gonna go with Melanie C
00:25:08Yes
00:25:09There's something about being
00:25:10A young artist
00:25:11They're so much more accomplished
00:25:13Than they know they are
00:25:15I want to hear potential
00:25:17I want to hear personality
00:25:19And feel like there's charisma
00:25:20When I turn around
00:25:23It's such a wonderful way
00:25:24To find younger artists
00:25:26She know what I want
00:25:28Yeah
00:25:31Steve will come
00:25:33Wow
00:25:34From the crowd
00:25:35To center stage
00:25:37I'm just really overwhelmed
00:25:40Alyssa puts it all on the line
00:25:43And later
00:25:47A voice like no other
00:25:49This is what you were born to do
00:25:51That has to be
00:25:52One of the most incredible performances
00:25:54We've seen on this stage
00:25:56Sparks a coach showdown
00:25:58We all want you bad
00:26:01Team Ronan
00:26:02Is ready for you
00:26:03Come on
00:26:05I need you on my team
00:26:11This is brutal this show
00:26:13This is the point
00:26:14This is the point
00:26:21This is the point
00:26:23How about you together?
00:26:27Are you ready to go up?
00:26:31That was done
00:26:35What'd you say?
00:26:36Can I just snapchat?
00:26:38Can you have my what?
00:26:39Snapchat
00:26:40Snapchat?
00:26:41You think I'm on Snapchat?
00:26:45Catch me
00:26:47Catch me
00:26:49Go faster, go farther
00:26:50Try and catch me if you can
00:26:52Hello, my name is Cybella
00:26:54I'm 21 years old
00:26:56And I'm from the Central Coast
00:26:57I was about 9 when I first got into competitive race walking
00:27:04It is a bit like what you see on Kath and Kim
00:27:08It is like that, but race walking is an Olympic sport
00:27:12A very difficult Olympic sport
00:27:14I did lots of singing alongside my race walking
00:27:16I did lots of singing alongside my race walking
00:27:19So it was singing, race walking, singing, race walking
00:27:22I wasn't going to follow both paths forever
00:27:25I started realising I love singing so much
00:27:28And that's the path I want to go down
00:27:30That's what I want to chase, that feeling
00:27:31The song I'm singing for my blind audition is Take On Me by AHA
00:27:39I've made this song my own by kind of bringing it back a little bit
00:27:43It's a bit more of a pared back version
00:27:45Definitely risky rearranging a song like this
00:27:48Because it is very well known and very well loved
00:27:52If you take a song like this and you don't quite nail it
00:27:55People are going to remember that and not in a great way
00:27:57It's not in a great way
00:28:13Okay
00:28:15We love you
00:28:16Love you too
00:28:17Lots
00:28:18We're talking away
00:28:29I don't know
00:28:32What to say
00:28:33I'll say it anyway
00:28:37Today is another day to find you
00:28:41Shying away
00:28:44I'll be coming for your love, okay
00:28:46Take on me
00:28:48Take on me
00:28:51Take me on
00:28:56Come on, come on
00:29:00I'll be gone
00:29:02I'll be gone
00:29:06I'll be gone
00:29:08I'll be gone
00:29:10In a day or two
00:29:14In a day or two
00:29:20In a day or two
00:29:24In a day or two
00:29:27In a day or two
00:29:29In a day or two
00:29:32Oh, no!
00:29:35Oh, wow!
00:29:36Hello!
00:29:37Hey there!
00:29:38Hi!
00:29:39Hi!
00:29:40I'm Sabella
00:29:41I'm 21
00:29:42And I'm from the Central Coast
00:29:44Hi there!
00:29:46I think we all kind of feel the same way
00:29:48Which is that you have a really lovely tone
00:29:50You're a really good singer
00:29:52I can tell you're a good singer
00:29:53I would just offer as a constructive criticism
00:29:57To be really careful about the song choice
00:30:02And I, you know, we all love that song
00:30:05But to take a song that's known for that range
00:30:09And showing off that impressive low to high thing
00:30:13And then kind of keeping it all kind of in here
00:30:15Doesn't show off what you can really do
00:30:18So I think you should always think about
00:30:20What songs really highlight your strengths
00:30:22Thank you so much
00:30:24Thank you
00:30:26I feel like this is such a tough stage
00:30:28This is such a pressure cooker
00:30:31And that song requires such breath control
00:30:35I mean, the range of the chorus is insane
00:30:39And almost impossible for a woman
00:30:43Because a man can flip into a falsetto
00:30:45Which is cheating, obviously
00:30:47Oh, of course
00:30:48Always, that's what we do
00:30:49Yeah
00:30:50I feel like with that song
00:30:52We really wanted the payoff of the
00:30:55In a day or two
00:30:57And we sort of missed that with your melodic choices
00:31:00Like they were nice, they were tasteful
00:31:02Yeah
00:31:03But maybe you overdid it with the seasoning
00:31:05And, you know, we just wanted a bit more meat and potatoes
00:31:07Yeah, for sure
00:31:08But look, you're a beautiful singer
00:31:10And keep going, thank you
00:31:11Thank you so much
00:31:12Thank you
00:31:13Thank you
00:31:20Oh, baby
00:31:21You were so good
00:31:22Oh, thank you so much
00:31:23You're beautiful
00:31:24Oh, thank you
00:31:25Oh, thank you
00:31:26Oh, thank you
00:31:27Oh, thank you
00:31:28Oh, thank you
00:31:29Oh, thank you
00:31:30Oh, thank you
00:31:31Oh, thank you
00:31:32Oh, thank you
00:31:33Oh, that's the main thing
00:31:34Oh, we love it
00:31:35You got perfect pitch, right, Richard?
00:31:36Do you?
00:31:37Yeah
00:31:38Oh, I thought
00:31:39Someone told me you did
00:31:40You were looking at me then
00:31:41I was like, huh?
00:31:42No, my father did
00:31:44And one of my sons does
00:31:46And they say that it skips a generation
00:31:47So I'm a little pissed
00:31:55Oh, my God
00:31:56Oh, my God
00:31:57Are you okay?
00:31:58Yeah
00:31:59Oh, my God
00:32:00What are you singing?
00:32:01I don't know
00:32:02You don't know what you're singing
00:32:03Oh, my God
00:32:04I cannot believe I'm about to do this
00:32:06I was just in the audience
00:32:07Like, what the hell?
00:32:08Like, this is crazy
00:32:09Are you nervous?
00:32:10Yes
00:32:11I'm very nervous
00:32:12Don't be
00:32:13Don't be
00:32:14They loved you out there
00:32:15When you were singing
00:32:16Everyone
00:32:17Even the crew and everything
00:32:19Whipped their head over to you
00:32:20Yeah
00:32:21Yeah
00:32:22It was crazy
00:32:23Oh, my God
00:32:26So these are the artists
00:32:27They've had time to prepare their songs
00:32:29You know, control their nerves
00:32:31But I don't have any of that time
00:32:33I don't know
00:32:34I can't even explain it
00:32:35Like, a bit freaked out
00:32:37I'm about to go out there and perform
00:32:39For four superstar coaches
00:32:40I'm really scared
00:32:41I feel
00:32:42Ugh
00:32:43Ugh
00:33:01My name's Justin Ryn
00:33:02And my job is to bring the party
00:33:04Shake the stress away
00:33:06Cause we about to put on a show
00:33:08The most important thing to do as a DJ is have fun
00:33:11Absolutely
00:33:12There's no two ways about that
00:33:13The beat move your body and soul
00:33:16If you're having fun as a DJ
00:33:18The audience is gonna have fun
00:33:20People just kinda let loose
00:33:21They forget their lives for a few hours
00:33:23And they just enjoy it
00:33:24And I love being a part of that
00:33:27I love my DJing
00:33:29But you're doing someone else's music
00:33:32I think it's time for me to find my sound
00:33:38Explore myself as an artist
00:33:40The song I am singing for my blind audition is
00:33:45Canned Heat by Jamiroquai
00:33:47It's an upbeat dance hit
00:33:51I think it's just gonna be a lot of fun
00:33:58My biggest concern with this song
00:34:00Is I feed off audience energy
00:34:03And engagement when I perform
00:34:05But the coaches aren't facing me
00:34:12So that's gonna be really tough
00:34:14I gotta trust
00:34:16That I can deliver a good performance
00:34:18I need more people on my team
00:34:21I need more people on my team
00:34:23I need this to be good
00:34:25This could be for you
00:34:28Could be for me though
00:34:31Probably not
00:34:33You still have that button remember
00:34:35I've still got this button
00:34:36Watch yourself
00:34:37I'm gonna touch your button in a minute
00:34:38Don't you dare touch that button
00:34:40You know this book is for real
00:34:55I used to put my faith in worship
00:34:58But I used to get to heaven's lips
00:35:02I used to worry about the future
00:35:05But I took my caution to the wind
00:35:09I had no reason to be carefree
00:35:12No, no, no
00:35:13Till I took a trip
00:35:14To the other side of town
00:35:17You know I heard that boogie rhythm
00:35:20Hey!
00:35:21I had no choice but to get down, down, down, down, down
00:35:24Put down the level of me to do a dance
00:35:29All these bad times I'm loving you to stand
00:35:33Hey!
00:35:34Goddamn you need my wheels tonight, baby
00:35:37Yeah!
00:35:38I feel the thunder to the lightning
00:35:42I know this anger is heaven sent
00:35:46Well I don't know what to do
00:35:48But let me dance like a little
00:35:50A little between hell and high water
00:35:52Need a cue to make it through
00:35:54Now dance
00:35:55But nothing left for me to do a dance
00:35:59These bad times I'm loving you to stand
00:36:02Yeah!
00:36:03Got handed in my heels tonight, baby
00:36:06Wow!
00:36:08Oh!
00:36:09I'm the only one!
00:36:10Amazing!
00:36:11That was fun!
00:36:12I didn't see it but it sounded fun!
00:36:13You should have turned!
00:36:14You should have seen the whole thing!
00:36:15I realize that now!
00:36:29What's your name?
00:36:31My name's Justin, I'm from Sydney and I'm 28 years old
00:36:35Hey Justin, I was so close to turning
00:36:40I thought it was a great song choice
00:36:42I do have quite similar artists in my team already
00:36:45So chill
00:36:46I know, but I think the one thing that maybe held me back
00:36:49I mean, you're a cool looking guy, right?
00:36:52I just watch it doesn't get too cabaret
00:36:54Yeah, yeah, fair
00:36:55You know?
00:36:56But other than that, what a great performance, thank you
00:36:58Thanks, thanks, cheers
00:36:59You entertained everybody
00:37:02You should be really, really proud of the performance you gave
00:37:04Because you entertained a whole room full of people
00:37:07With that performance
00:37:08It is the voice
00:37:10And for me that was a little karaoke-ish
00:37:13It wasn't like an artist vocal performance
00:37:16And that's really what I'm after
00:37:17But I bet you have that in you
00:37:19It was just that song choice
00:37:20So I think you'll do really well with Kate
00:37:22Thank you
00:37:23Thank you
00:37:24That was so cool
00:37:25I turned around because I just could not miss another dancer
00:37:29I need someone with that physicality on my team
00:37:32I'm a child of the 90s
00:37:38Jamiroquai was so massive for me
00:37:41That vocal performance was not perfect
00:37:44But it had this incredible fizzing energy the whole way through
00:37:47The audience were going insane
00:37:49Thanks, Kate
00:37:50Welcome to Team Kate
00:37:54Great time
00:37:55Thank you
00:37:56Justin, welcome to The Voice
00:37:57You're on Team Kate
00:37:58Good on you, mate
00:37:59Yeah, thank you
00:38:02Yay!
00:38:03Congratulations
00:38:04Thanks so much, cheers
00:38:12You're right, I agree
00:38:13I think he was trying to be JK rather than trying to be Justin
00:38:16I'm just like
00:38:17Give me another great singer, please
00:38:21That's what I'm here for
00:38:22I don't care about dancing or anything
00:38:24I want singers
00:38:25Yep
00:38:26Yep
00:38:27Your team so far is really classy
00:38:28Yeah
00:38:29You know, you've really got people that
00:38:30are right to you
00:38:31And that pair up really well together
00:38:32Yeah
00:38:33Yeah, I think you need some stuff that isn't so classy
00:38:35You need some trashy shit
00:38:38But I'll provide that
00:38:45Congratulations
00:38:46Very fun
00:38:47Hello, Kate
00:38:48Congratulations
00:38:49Oh, you too
00:38:50You must be so proud
00:38:51Very proud
00:38:52Having fun through this process is the main thing
00:38:54Because it can be so nerve-wracking
00:38:56And you can get in your own head
00:38:58I think, Justin, you're going to be sweet
00:39:00Cheers, thank you, you're very kind
00:39:01So lovely to meet you all
00:39:02Nice to meet you
00:39:03See you soon
00:39:04All the best and best
00:39:05I could not be more thrilled with my team
00:39:13They're all so different
00:39:15It's going to be Kate
00:39:16Hey!
00:39:17Oh my God!
00:39:18Yes!
00:39:19Yes!
00:39:20I've got big voices
00:39:21Interesting, cool voices
00:39:23Hidden gems
00:39:24Who don't even know how good they are yet
00:39:26This is incredible
00:39:29It's so eclectic and exciting
00:39:31You're on team Kate
00:39:32I want to take the crown this year with every fibre of my being
00:39:37And I feel so protective of my artists
00:39:40I believe I have the winner on team Kate
00:39:45Coming up
00:39:47Laughter's her job
00:39:49But singing's her dreams
00:39:51This is what I want to do for the rest of my life
00:39:54Will this artist have what it takes to turn a chair?
00:40:01This is the point
00:40:09This is the point
00:40:11Hi, my name is Taylor Paula
00:40:22I'm 23 and I am a clown
00:40:24Surprise!
00:40:28It's actually the best job ever
00:40:30Who gets to say that you get to go to work and be a clown?
00:40:33Like what?
00:40:34That's so random
00:40:37Being a clown is like being yourself
00:40:40but to the extreme all the weird funny quirky parts of myself I get to put out
00:40:46into the world and like people don't get like weirded out by it because they're
00:40:50like oh yeah clown makes sense
00:40:57I've grown up singing my entire life I'd always sing and perform and in front of
00:41:03like my family when I was a kid and that's when I was like yeah I this is my
00:41:07happy place like I need to do this the fact that I am about to sing to four
00:41:12international superstars is insane are you kidding me I hope the coaches can see
00:41:17that I am a serious artist and this is what I want to do for the rest of my
00:41:22life
00:41:37the lonely lives waiting for someone to release me
00:41:42oh oh oh
00:41:49my heart is singing let's go oh no oh what my heart is singing no
00:41:56if you want to be with me i could make your wish come true gotta make a big impression in my comuns
00:42:10Oh, baby, gotta roll me the right word for me
00:42:14I'm a jilly in a bottle, baby
00:42:17Come on and let me out
00:42:24Hi
00:42:30Hi
00:42:32There were some moments in the performance that were gold
00:42:35Absolutely gorgeous, I looked over at Mel at one moment
00:42:38Both of us caught each other
00:42:39There was a moment like, oh yeah
00:42:41And it was just coming to the end of the performance
00:42:44And it was like, oh, maybe that's just, that's all
00:42:47That's all we could, yeah, it was just, there wasn't enough
00:42:49There were some moments, but there wasn't enough
00:42:51Thank you
00:42:52Interesting song choice
00:42:56I don't think it was the best song to display your voice necessarily
00:43:01You have a wide range, you've got a really good voice
00:43:04You've got power
00:43:05And I think that what you should lean into is figuring out what music makes you into an artist
00:43:14Because that's what's going to set you apart
00:43:16And in a show like this, you have to set yourself apart
00:43:19But really, really great job
00:43:21And keep singing
00:43:22Thank you
00:43:24See ya
00:43:28Oh, bless her
00:43:29It wasn't what I was hoping for
00:43:33But
00:43:33You always have to get no's
00:43:36Like no's are an inevitable part of the industry
00:43:39So, it's alright
00:43:41There's always next year, there's always the year after that
00:43:45It's okay
00:43:46I know what it feels like to give everything over to music
00:43:53And devote your whole life to it
00:43:55And dream of that moment
00:43:57When you can finally make it a career
00:43:59As a performer
00:44:01It's such a drive
00:44:03You're compelled to do these terrifying things
00:44:06And you have to face rejection
00:44:08It's a real part of being a performer
00:44:11So I know exactly how the artists feel
00:44:14Coming here on The Voice
00:44:16It's a petrifying step
00:44:18That you have no choice but to take
00:44:21You will not believe your eyes
00:44:25If 10 million fire flies
00:44:28Lit up the world as I fell asleep
00:44:31Let's go
00:44:33I'd like to make myself believe
00:44:37That planet earth turns slowly
00:44:43It's hard to say that I'd rather stay away
00:44:47When I must leave
00:44:49Yeah
00:44:49I felt as though you didn't fully commit to that song
00:45:01And if you don't commit as the singer
00:45:04We can't commit as the listener
00:45:07And it was lovely
00:45:08And you've got this beautiful sweet tone
00:45:10You know, my ears loved it
00:45:12But I didn't feel it
00:45:14The reality is you're awesome
00:45:17That was a great performance
00:45:18You're just not ready yet
00:45:19You've got what it takes
00:45:20It's just not ready
00:45:22It's early stages
00:45:24It's simmering
00:45:25It's yeah, you're gonna get there
00:45:27You need more experience
00:45:28You need more performances under your belt
00:45:30And you'll get there
00:45:31That was great today, man
00:45:32Well done
00:45:32Thank you so much for coming today
00:45:34Thank you very much, guys
00:45:35Thank you
00:45:36Tough moments in my career has shaped me
00:45:44You learn from the mistakes
00:45:45You don't learn from the triumphs
00:45:46Definitely
00:45:47Every artist walks on the voice stage
00:45:51They've got their dreams on the line
00:45:53So saying no is never easy
00:45:55No matter how hard I try
00:46:01You keep pushing me aside
00:46:04And I can't break through
00:46:07There's no talking to you
00:46:10Do you believe in life after love?
00:46:20I could feel something inside me say
00:46:24I really don't think you're strong enough now
00:46:29And I know that I'll get through this
00:46:33Cause I know that I am strong
00:46:41I don't need you anymore
00:46:45I don't need you anymore
00:46:50Tell us your name
00:47:00My name is Olivia May
00:47:02I'm a registered nurse
00:47:03I work in the operating theatre
00:47:05That's awesome
00:47:07I think you have a nice voice
00:47:09I was like waiting for something exciting to happen
00:47:15And so maybe just thinking forward
00:47:17You know, choose songs where you can really just deliver the goods
00:47:22Thank you so much
00:47:24But thank you for being here
00:47:25No, thank you so much
00:47:27I so appreciate your time
00:47:29I just thought
00:47:30I'll give it a crack before we do nursing full time
00:47:33And yeah
00:47:34You're gonna what?
00:47:35You're gonna walk away from music?
00:47:37I don't know
00:47:38Please don't stop
00:47:40I mean
00:47:40Thank you
00:47:41You know, just because you didn't get any turn
00:47:43You know, here
00:47:44Doesn't mean you're not good enough
00:47:47It's just
00:47:47You're not ready really right now
00:47:49That's what it is
00:47:49I was told no
00:47:57Many more times than I was told yes
00:47:59And luckily I never gave up on myself
00:48:02The first three years I was in L.A. trying to get a record deal
00:48:06Every single label rejected me multiple times
00:48:11I had a couple of record executives tell me that I had no chance in hell of ever getting a record deal
00:48:20That my music was awful
00:48:22That my singing was terrible
00:48:24But I decided they were bullshit
00:48:26So I kept going
00:48:28I was rejected on the basis of songs like Endless Summer Nights and Should've Known Better
00:48:35Which became top five singles
00:48:37Which became songs that still get played on the radio
00:48:40That still make me money
00:48:4235, 37 years later
00:48:45So if you're pursuing something
00:48:48And the answer you get is no
00:48:51Maybe just take it as not yet
00:48:55No doesn't necessarily mean no
00:48:57Sometimes no just means not yet
00:48:59Next
00:49:02Artist walking
00:49:03She came to watch
00:49:06Now she's set a stage
00:49:08To think I was in the audience
00:49:10And now I'm actually about to
00:49:11Seeing in front of four superstar coaches
00:49:14I've had only a couple hours to prepare
00:49:19But is she ready for the spotlight?
00:49:27This is the party
00:49:29All right here we go get set for our next artist
00:49:43The nerves that it must take for them to be out there right now
00:49:48Come and sing in front of a room full of strangers
00:49:50And some absolute music superstars right
00:49:53Must be mind blowing
00:49:54So let's be on their team
00:49:55Let's give them heaps of encouragement
00:49:57I am very scared
00:50:01To think I was in the audience
00:50:02And now I'm actually backstage
00:50:03About to go on stage
00:50:05Is actually really crazy
00:50:07I love music
00:50:10But I have really bad anxiety
00:50:13I do really struggle
00:50:14With getting up and performing
00:50:16In front of other people
00:50:17It has been a struggle since I was a kid
00:50:19But this is a once in a lifetime opportunity
00:50:22I'm about to walk out on stage
00:50:27Like I'm actually freaking out at the moment
00:50:30I've had only a couple hours to prepare
00:50:36I'm just really overwhelmed
00:50:38I can't control the shakiness of my hands
00:50:41My heart is pounding
00:50:43I'm just praying
00:50:45That I am able to turn at least one chair
00:50:48Something's got a hold of me lately
00:51:13No, I don't know myself anymore
00:51:17Feels like the walls are all closing in
00:51:23And the devil's knocking at my door
00:51:27Out of my mind
00:51:29How many times did I tell you
00:51:32I'm no good at being alone
00:51:36Yeah, it's taking a toll on me
00:51:39Trying my best to keep from tearing the skin
00:51:43Out of my bones
00:51:44Don't you know
00:51:46I'm out of loose control
00:51:51When you're not next to me
00:51:56Yeah, I'm falling apart
00:52:01But in front of you can't just see
00:52:04I'm out of loose control
00:52:09When you're not next to me
00:52:15Yeah, I'm breaking my heart
00:52:19Baby, you made a mess of me
00:52:22I'm out of loose control
00:52:29When you're not next to me
00:52:33Yeah, I'm falling apart
00:52:36Baby, you made a mess of me
00:52:42Okay, hang on a minute
00:53:07Holy shh
00:53:08Sorry, can't say that word
00:53:09Holy shh
00:53:12Were you the girl that was singing in the audience
00:53:15Oh my God
00:53:16That is lovely
00:53:18No way
00:53:20That is absolutely nuts
00:53:23And look at that
00:53:24You've got a four chair turn for Christ's sakes
00:53:27How are you feeling?
00:53:31Very overwhelmed
00:53:33But very excited
00:53:35I bet
00:53:35Those are the vocals that give me chills
00:53:39You know, that was really spectacular
00:53:41So musical
00:53:42So full of emotion
00:53:44I believed you the whole way through
00:53:46And I believed that you truly belong on team Kate
00:53:49I need you on my team
00:53:51Please
00:53:52I'm begging you, please
00:53:55I know that these coaches
00:53:56They're all going to give their own amazing pitches
00:53:59And, you know, you might be persuaded
00:54:01But just try to not listen when they speak, okay?
00:54:06Melissa
00:54:07Hello
00:54:08How old are you?
00:54:09Where are you from?
00:54:10I'm 19
00:54:11I'm from Sydney
00:54:1119, wow
00:54:1419, to have a voice like that at 19
00:54:18And how much singing have you done publicly?
00:54:21I don't really sing out in public anywhere
00:54:23You don't sing publicly?
00:54:24I've sung in front of an audience
00:54:27But definitely none like this before
00:54:30Alyssa, it's only the beginning
00:54:36Whatever happens, this is what you are born to do
00:54:39This is who you are
00:54:40Stage is ready for you
00:54:42The voice is ready for you
00:54:44And team Ronan is ready for you
00:54:46Come here
00:54:47Hi, Alyssa
00:54:50Hi
00:54:50First of all, congratulations on
00:54:52One of the greatest performances we've seen
00:54:54Thank you
00:54:55You have such a big voice
00:54:59And a powerful voice
00:55:01And a soulful voice
00:55:02And I think that what you need to take this to the end
00:55:06Is a coach who has the experience of working with singers like you
00:55:11And I have had the honour of working with Luther Vandross
00:55:15Barbara Streisand, Josh Groban
00:55:17And Justin Timberlake
00:55:19And kind of across the board
00:55:21And I feel like my experience would be the key to you winning this thing
00:55:28And I really, really would love for you to be on Team Richard
00:55:33Alyssa
00:55:36You have blown my mind
00:55:39That has to be one of the most incredible performances we've seen on this stage
00:55:43Yeah
00:55:44I have to think, Alyssa
00:55:47What I can offer to you
00:55:49You know, sometimes it is difficult to compete with
00:55:51These coaches are incredible, right?
00:55:54I'm not a producer
00:55:54You know, I haven't worked with many, many voices
00:55:56But I am a singer
00:55:58And when I started with the Spice Girls
00:56:00I think I was 20
00:56:01And what I can offer to you is
00:56:04That experience of not really knowing what this world is
00:56:08To being thrust into it really quickly
00:56:10You know, I can help you navigate that
00:56:12And also, together, we can work out how we look after that voice
00:56:16You know, because that gift you have, it's precious
00:56:18And without a doubt, we all want you bad
00:56:22And I want to be the person who gets you to the final
00:56:25So, Alyssa
00:56:28The choice is yours
00:56:29You got us all
00:56:31I think
00:56:37I would just like to point out
00:56:42You know, before you make this tough decision
00:56:45That it was actually me that noticed Alyssa's voice
00:56:48And pointed it out to the producers
00:56:49So, I don't think she'd actually be here
00:56:52It's because you're closest, you were over there
00:56:53You're there closest
00:56:54Well, she wouldn't be here if not for me
00:56:56That's nonsense

00:57:31I think I would just like to point out you know before you you make this tough decision that
00:57:48it was actually me that noticed Alyssa's voice and pointed it out to the producers so
00:57:53she wouldn't be here if not for me that's nonsense join team Melanie C please I would

01:00:35stage ever I discovered her in the audience seeing none of this would have happened if if I hadn't have
01:00:41done that it's you know it's I don't think travesty is too much of a word

01:01:23Ronan better he can just wait I mean I can I'm capable of holding a grudge for a very long time
01:01:29she's getting she's getting upset with me it's she's getting a moche totes a moche
01:01:36next time on the voice the search for incredible voices continues
01:01:49yes I haven't seen this audience react to anyone as much as they did to you I would absolutely
01:01:56love to have you on my team team cake as the coaches battle to secure artists I don't have
