00:01The Voice is back, and this time around there are two new faces on the judging panel.
00:06Kylie Minogue and the Kaiser Chiefs Ricky Wilson are joining stalwarts Will.i.am and Sir Tom Jones on the
00:12show's famed swivel chairs.
00:14But Sir Tom admitted that winning The Voice doesn't guarantee stardom.
00:18The television is one thing. You know, you come on there so that people can see you and hear you,
00:23but then getting a hit record is another thing again.
00:27You know, and that is an ongoing thing. That is still going on with me.
00:32As long as I've been in the business, I still don't have the secret of, oh, this will be a
00:36hit.
00:37If I record this one, this will be... You don't know.
00:39You just, you have faith in a song and you do the best you can with it.
00:43And hopefully the public, because they are the ones that make the decision, will like it.
00:50He says the secret to backing a winner is to listen for an emotional connection.
00:54In the blind audition, when you first hear them, the initial thing is that person has to touch you.
01:00That person has to come through.
01:02And then as time goes on, you've got to try and pick the right songs.
01:06And hopefully you don't make any mistakes.
01:09And then it's challenging for the singer that you picked.
01:15And then you see how versatile these people can be.
01:18The new season of The Voice kicks off on BBC One this Saturday.
