02:04Yay
02:06And I make it right
02:08And I make it right
02:09Please put it back inside
02:11I'm actually named after Bob Mali
02:13Boom
02:14My mum has already like previously named me
02:17But then my dad came in and he said
02:18I want to name him after Bob Mali
02:20So Mali's my name
02:22It's stuck and it feels good
02:23I don't know
02:25How you stand in those shoes
02:28I've been singing for a little while now
02:30That I've sort of gotten comfortable
02:32So auditioning for The Voice
02:34Is pushing myself to the limit
02:37What am I capable of?
02:38And go for it eh
02:40And I know I'll be here someday
02:44The song that I'm singing for my blind audition is
02:47Ribbon in the Sky by Stevie Wonder
02:49Guy sung it on Idol for his audition
02:51And I guess it does sort of have a lot of pressure
02:54Yes I'm gonna drink
02:56I wanna fight
02:57I'm all ready for the world tonight
03:02Wow what a voice
03:03I mean
03:04Thanks man, appreciate it
03:05That song to me changed my life
03:07Mmm
03:08I auditioned on Idol with that song
03:10And to hear you sing it
03:13And just give it this whole other Mali thing
03:16I mean I'm listening to a singer that's just
03:19You're not thinking, you're feeling
03:20Like it's just
03:22For me Mali
03:24You are why I did this show this year
03:27That's funny
03:30It's that pure voice
03:33That makes this worthwhile as a coach
03:35So wow
03:36Thank you for appearing
03:39In my team
03:43For The Voice 2023
03:45We are gonna have so much fun

04:21Did you hear that before?
04:22Yeah
04:22I think I heard that too
04:25I don't know
04:25In that area
04:25It was the Australian side
04:27The Australian side
04:30This side
04:30Right here
04:31There's a side?
04:32Yes
04:32Maybe it's come from that side for sure
04:34Is there no level you won't stoop to?
04:40I mean I'm floored man
04:41I had an incredible time hearing your gift
04:44This was really truly truly a pleasure
