The Blind Audition is the most unique part of the process. Chairs
are facing away from the stage, we have no idea what is going on
behind us. We don't know what they look like, even if they are male or
female of the You can hear this big, huge soul voice, and turn around it
could be a small girl. You are just hearing the voice, and they are
singing their heart out, that is a beautiful way to go about it.
Four superstars are on a mission to find The Voice. Each coach is
looking for ten singers to put on their team. We have a mission, that
is to take her singers out and win. If more than one coach hits the
Buzzer. We have to go, this is why you should, pick me! Come on!
The singer has to choose. This is so hard.
You better make the right choice, it could mess up your whole career.
You need to come here. So far Tom has six of his ten
singers. I'm trying to get as many different kinds of people as
possible so we are strong. I want to hear honesty and individuality.
Jessie has secured five. I have great talent, but I would love
another girl, with a big, big vocal. Danny has four artists on his team.
I have build the foundation of a good cake, I'm looking for cherries.
Williams has three? Everybody is looking for the same thing, I think
I have the ears, heart and gut to find it.
Tonight, as we hit the half way mark, the pressure is on. Next time
I ain't going to tell you all what to do. Don't trust people that wear
denim on denim. Time is running out to secure the
most talented vocalists. There is a lot at stake here.
So the coaches get themselves psyched up, made up.
And fired up for tonight's Blind Auditions. I wish I had eyes in the
back of my head. Only the most talented vocalists from across the
country have been invited. The first of them to face the coaches
tonight is 21-year-old Joelle Moses. She's desperate to step out of the
shadows and take centre stage. Have been trying to make it for
about five years now, I have done backing vocals, for artists such as
Gabriel, Rihanna, Toni Braxton, it is a hard industry, it is hard to
get noticed and heard. It is a bitter sweet situation, it is
amazing to be doing these songs for these huge artists, but at the same
Time, you kind of think, I wish that was my song.
I have tried working with anyone and everyone who will work with me,
I would love to be able to emulate their kind of success. I think this
could be my chance and opportunity to be able to shine and be in the

Thank you so much for turning around for me. It is your voice and
you that made us turn around, it wasn't nothing else.
Within the first couple of bars I was sold. I think you did fantastic
job, you really made that song your own. I really feel that me and you
would have a great chemistry together. Hopefully. Not in that
way! I don't mind chemistry between me and you Danny. It's on! What
about me. I have to say, I think your control is incredible and
breathing, I would give my left arm to work with a singer like you.
Wow. One thing that came to my mind is I
would love to write a song for you. I don't often do that, I'm picky
about voices I would like to write for, to sing a song that has so
much story as well as tone that is needed, you carried it. As a
female-to-female! I would like you in my team. Our voices together,
could be insane! I love you Jessie J. I love you too.
I would say too much of the same thing can be a bad, bad, bad thing.
I know I don't sing like Jessie or yourself, or Adele, but I know how
to work with good singers, produce them and stuff like that! So I know
how to take an artist from here to there. I would like to work with
you as an artist. Thank you.
Let me just say, I can't compete with these people as far as doing
things for you. But, no, no. I love the way you sing, that is what I
look for. For me it is coming from here, sweetheart. You get the
chance here to pick any of us, I would like to say I did press first,
though. What size shoe are you? Seven,
sometimes eight? That's what I'm saying, we can share shoe
collections. Honestly, I'm so humbled by you
guys turning around for me, thank you so much.
I honestly don't have a clue to choose. Go with your heart, go with
Your heart? I got to go with my gut instinct,
Will. I.am. You made a good choice.
After a an epic battle, he adds to the Will. I.am team. She was great.
I really wanted her. She was really good.
I feel incredible. Honestly, I am so, so glad, I have been trying for
a very long time to try to make my dream come true. You know, this
could be the beginning of something amazing. I didn't think she would
pick me and possibly go with Jessie J, because she's a singer. I cried
a little bit inside, she was brilliant, I was really sad.
Was singing from a deep place. And whatever it was was hitting me.
Felt me and Joelle had a certain chemistry, but. I have to try
harder, I have to ramp it up, don't I! It is one happy coach, and three
bruised egos, will Jay do it again. I'm Jay Norton, I'm 24, a waiter,
I'm originally from Liverpool, I came to London three months ago to
do the music thing, that is what I came here to do, that is what I'm
staying here to do. When you are there making pizzas,
do you sing? My manager tries to get me to sing to the customers, I
don't go that far, I think, sing to me now, and I will give you a tip.
If I got this it would justify me moving to London t would show who I
am. I have come here to do one thing, and hopefully, that will be
the case. This is a chance to really change
the future. I don't know if there will be a bigger opportunity than
This to really become a recording # Oh

For my team. You're it, as far as I'm concerned. I think I turned
around four seconds in, because I heard it, I know what I'm looking
for, it hit me ear like, boom, that's it, turn around right now,
say no more, and pray to God that these guys don't hit the button and
try to take what I'm focused on. Any strings in the orchestra.
No, no, no, I'm serious. These guy, I don't know what they are looking
at. These cats, man! I'm serious, really, you're the
bomb, for real. Is this the point I have to choose?
I think, I'm going to have to go with Will, because he turned quick.
But I really appreciate you turning, I'm so thankful.
♪ That tonight's gonna be a good Focused! Oh my God.
So psychological warrior Will, outfocuses Tom to make Jay his
fifth artist. # My name is Will. I.am and I have two dots in my
name. Is it dots? I thought it was dashs.
Is your real name Will? It's William. Some of our artists have
tasted fame and are back for a second shot. Allyson Brown was
winning awards win Jessie was still at school. I was spotted singing a
club when I was 15. It went to me winning the best unsigned Mobo act,
I met P Diddy and all of those kinds of people, and I didn't tell
a soul and went back to school and studied for exams. Most people
think you will have a deal and your album will come out, that didn't
work out. What I had never really stopped
singing, I have my own identity now, I feel now is the time for me to
push singing to the forefront of my life.
Singing to the four coaches, they know nothing about me, they will
just hear my voice, if I hit a bum note, it doesn't matter what I have

Nobody. What's your name? Allyson Brown.
You sounded great, you have a great voice.
Thank you, bless you, sir. I was looking at Jessie, please go,
please go. Honestly I think you have a fantastic voice and one hell
of a career ahead of you, and thank you very much for performing for us.
I didn't turn around because I was wishing that Jessie would hit her
button, because she has so much knowledge on how to, because you're
There, but you could perfect it. That knowledge Jessie has.
I should have pressed my button. This is about coaching, there was
things I was going, if she had done that, that is the whole point of
the show. Do not worry, thank you very much for hearing me sing today,
it was my pleasure. I'm really sad, you're that girl
That I wish I had turned around for. Amazing amaze. Don't worry, it's
All love. Just keep going. Just keep going.
There are no second chances for Allyson Brown or Jessie. We are
breaking people's hearts tonight. She should have been one of my
girls. Even the standard of the noes is very high, there are people
who are phenomenal singers and come on stage and none of us turned
around. The hardest thing I find with the Blind Auditions is we can
only pick ten. I don't like the fact that if I hear somebody that I
can't pick them. It is different things that light
your fire. It is in the moment as well. It could have been a
different day or different song, all four of us turn around.
Doesn't mean you are a bad singer, it really doesn't t means you
weren't what we were looking for on the day. This is the hardest part.
It is hard to explain why not. Hoping see can do better, is our
next artist, who sings at holiday camps, tough crowd. Hur toughest
audience are waiting... her toughest audience are waiting.
Leanne, I work at a holiday park. As a little girl my dream was to be
a singer and successful. I'm not working as a singer, I'm part of an
entertainment package they get while on holiday, it is not about
me. I think this is my chance to finally show what I can do. Now is
definitely the right time. It's everything. I maybe didn't

What's your name? Leanne. A good song to sing, as soon as you hit
the high note in the chorus, I was sold. You have great power, you
went too powerful towards the end. I would be honoured to work with
you. It was great. Thank you.
What would you want to do with me Tom! He's the sex bomb here, maybe
you shouldn't answer that. I'm a married man, I can't answer that
question. I would love to have you on my team,
you had the strong, when you started I thought you had a lot of
timber in your voice, it is very appealing to me. As you went up it
got stronger, and I think as the weeks go on, we will be picking all
kinds of songs, I feel that you can handle a wide variety of material,
that's what we are going to do. Thank you.
I think first time out of the box, standing on stage, a great
performance. Let's maybe bring down the range to use more of the power
when you need it and not up in the rafters all the time. I will be
absolutely blessed if you join me and my team.
It's down to you now. You have the choice. I'm really
overwhelmed. I didn't think one of you would
Turn around, let alone two of you! I'm going to go with... Tol...
Wonderful voice, thank you This is everything I want or dream
of, what I never thought I would get, it is hard to take in right
now. Tom Jones is a legend! Leanne goes for the legend, as Tom
makes her the seventh artist on his team. Looks like I have more girls
than boys on my team. I wouldn't worry, it looks like all the
coaches are embracing the competition. Give us... Give us a
kiss sweetheart. I like your hair. You look
beautiful. Jessie J dating contestants. There
is so many gorgeous girls. Danny's flirting again. No-one else, just
you. You need to come here babes. Think you are fantastic, can I take
your number. Am I coming on too strong. You are basically saying I
don't have a chance! Next! Some artists are here for
more than just the performance, Cassius Henry, The Voice is a
chance for him to start again. Had record deals in the past. I got
signed at a young age. I worked with Kanye West, I have toured with
R Kelly, I have been on Top Of The Pops.
I suppose it is kind of like living the dream, it is something that not
everybody gets to do. I everything came to a stop with the passing of
my little brother. Cassius's younger brother, Vivian, died from
a heart condition, aged just 19. Suppose I didn't recover from it,
in a sense. He wasn't Cassius no more, he was more the shadow, kind
of thing. I would give my all to get back into my career, my little
brother was a big fan of mine. I feel like I'm letting him down.
This is my way to make him proud again.
There is a lot of things I'm thinking about today, obviously
Family, friends. My main focus is just to try to deliver it how I

Too bad, thanks. Your name is? Cassius Henry.
The ladies like Cassius Henry!
What's been your big music career move to date? Before this I
actually had the opportunity to be on Top Of The Pops, I toured with R
Kelly, that was a big deal for me. This for you could be a big second
break. Yeah, definitely, I think it has that potential. I was in a
group before The Script, we had beige turn around in fortune, if
you are on my team, I believe that could happen for you too. I turned
around because there was something in your voice that I heard that I
really, really liked, there were little licks and thrills you were
doing that were nice. If you were on my team, I would hone in on the
upper range, the breathing, the way you hold the mic is wrong, I think
you have a listenable voice. So I have to make my choice now. Jessie,
there is something about you, it seems you want to teach me. If it
is down to teaching you things, every single one of us of us has a
whole back room staff that not only just Jessie can teach you. She gave
all her advice there, you might as welcome to me. Can I just say, one
thing, don't trust people who wear denim on denim! This is the great
part of the show, it is creative control, it is up to you, you can
go with Miss Bliing over there. I just say, he has four guys
Already. I have no soul singers. I know I didn't turn around, Jessie
is great, she's awesome. Danny is great, he's awesome! That helped.
One thing about Danny, I didn't know this, he has been hanging out
on the studio with Farrell and the Timberlands, and he understands
production and songwriting, I didn't know that. It is unfair for
you guys to sit there and say how amazing and experienced Danny is, I
have been signed for seven years, I haven't just been around for a few
minutes. This industry isn't just about mic control and singing, it
is about someone who knows how to be serious and how to have a good
time, someone who knows how to own a stage, and who knows how to do a
worldwide release in four months. And someone who is doing it right
Now! Danny, Danny! Come on. Right. The name that keeps popping
Up in my head. Is Jessie! Danny, love bro.
Eat face! Good choice. Good choice. Nice to meet you, I'm
looking forward to working you hard, it's going to be good.
More interesting psychological games from Will. Probably the most
fun I had in a while. Send Cassius in to Jessie's team. It was a
battle between me and Jessie, she said never trust a man who wears
denim on denim, I say don't trust a girl singing about bling who wears
lots of it. The incredible vocalists keep
coming. Guess who's busy with the button.
This is Denise Morgan. # I'm not gonna write you a love
song # make a break
You were in tune and strong, I loved the tone of your voice as
well. You're on my team, sweetheart.

than taking centre stage. I'm a student at Exeter University. I
spend a lot of my time cheerleading. As a cheerleader you have to be
positive, driven, hard working, I guess that is me.
If I could sing every single day and perform every single day as a
job, I don't think anything could make me more happy. I just really,
really hope when I get out on stage that it goes exactly to the plan
and they turn around. Go Hannah! I'm absolutely nervous,
I'm so nervous. It is the single most important

Your name is? I'm Hannah Berney from South Wales. I loved the sound
of your voice. Thank you very much for turning around. I loved the
control you have. You don't overdo it. A lot of singers around today,
they do a lot of runs, before they actually get to the middle of the
song. I thought you sounded great. You lock great, I'm glad I turned
the chair around. And, of course, you are from South Wales, so,
That's it, isn't it. Ponty boy. Same as my mum. My
grandparents are Irish. My mother's name, God, I've gone and forgotten
her name, sorry, it's a bit much. Charlie Brown, that was her
original name. Her name was Charlie Brown.
I just want to say I can see from the tears in your face this meant a
lot to you, the amount of emotion you put into the performance, you
hit the high notes, I could hear there is a massive voice in there.
I would be honoured if you would be on my team. Thank you very much.
I think based on the kind of stuff I sing, and the big voice I really,
Really want to get out, but also the improvements I need to make, em,
Em, Danny I think I'm going to go for you.
There will be yet more cheering in the valleys tonight as Hannah joins
Team Danny. I'm so sorry, I forgot your name. Let me introduce myself!
It felt great to have Hannah pick me over Tom Jones. You win again.
It is nice to have a one upmanship with the judges. The voice is all,
and farce the next artist is concerned, that is just how he
likes it. I'm Cris, I'm 31 I work at a call centre. I describe myself
as funny! I am what I am, as the song says.
I don't think I look like the average One Direction, pretty boy.
Obviously our coaches can't see you when you get on stage and perform.
I'm glad it is a bliend audition so they can think... Blind Audition so
they can listen to the voice, and then they can go and say, look at
that. Why do you think you vpblt made it before? Because... Haven't
made it before? Because of how I look.
Stand up then? Look at this. I want them to hear the voice, to show
them it doesn't matter what you look like, if you have soul. It is
my chance and my moment, I'm going to take it.

I thought it was good. Your breathing was good, and the pitch.
Can I just say my mum is back stage and a massive fan, and I was
probably conceived to one of your songs.
♪ 'S that pussycat ♪ Oh
♪ What's new pussycat That's been said to me a few times,
that children have been conceived while my music has been played.
I think one of the biggest compliments I had was one Catherine
Zeta Jones was giving birth to her first child, she had to have What's
New Pussycat on the radio, so as soon as she started to push, she
Said, "put Tom on and I'll push!". Tom hung with the Beatles, and
helped deliver Catherine Zeta Jones's baby, what a legend. If our
next artist's singing dream comes off, another big day may have to be
put on hold. I'm Bill, I'm 23 years old. I'm in a band called The Trax.
I have had many a job, I have worked in old people's homes,
worked in banks, had a burger van. Ultimately it comes back to music,
that is what I want to do. I recently got engaged. Sasha's great,
she does a lot of silly things which are very funny, she's a bit
ditsy. We got engaged on Christmas Day 2010. We woke up, I just pulled
the ring out from under my pillow and said, will you marry me? It it
wasn't very romantic, I could have done it better. There is potential
that possibly The Voice will clash with my wedding day. We have
decided that if fingers crossed, one of the coaches turns around,
and I get picked, we would move the wedding. How do you feel about
that? As much as I have been planning it for the last year and
I'm so excited, this could be the thing that changes his life forever.
How do you really feel? Honestly, I'm so excited for me. That is what
I love her. Good luck, I love you. I have never sung in front of four
people that are as big as these guys, I'm trying to keep it under
control at the moment. I just want to get out there and do

Hello. How are you? I'm fine. Was really good, I really enjoyed
that. I think you have a really good voice. If I'm being really
honest, I'm thinking Danny turn around, I feel like you and Danny
could work very well together. Do I.
Very, very good, the only thing that disappointed me was in and out
of the falsetto. That was weaker than your full voice. I have to
work on that. It is difficult to do, I can't do it myself. There is a
lot to play with t I can't imagine standing there in front of us. When
I heard the tone and your falsetto we could work great together. What
great song choice. Welcome to my team, man. Thank you so much.
Great, great job, looking forward to working with you, have a good
day. Sweet! I was the only one who
pushed my button for Bill, it doesn't worry at all, it shows lack
of taste on the other people's behalf.
Bill joins Team Danny, so are the wedding bells on told? Aren't you
supposed to be getting married pretty soon? Is it all right if we
move the wedding. Only under these circumstances. Well done, fella.
Team hug. Well done, fella, proud of you, mate.
Still to come, can Amy Winehouse's best friend start over. She's here
with me, I know that, it is about me finding my own feet.
Jessie's vocal radar failed? Picked a girl she shouldn't have
picked. And Williams blows up. Know we probably share the same
record collection. We eat the same soup, you eat miso soup, I eat that.
Kate Read is used to singing in her bedroom, how will she fare in front
of the coaches? I haven't been singing for long, for a year now,
just teaching myself. I spend a huge amount of time sitting in my
room, singing. Just love it. To think that four worldwide
vocalists are going to hear me, it is, I just can't even explain the
feel, I'm getting sweaty palms just thinking about it. My mum is to me
my best friend, we're really close, she is the person that believes in
me most, she believes in me more than I believe in myself. I hope it
comes across how much this song means to me while I'm singing.
Because I'm singing about my mum, so it's really meaningful to me.

do is for her. No, no, I wouldn't be the person I
Was, if it wasn't for my mom. She is my inspiration, and mew mom
must be proud of you. What I liked about your voice is
there is a vulnerability there, that is very fresh, I liked that,
that's what I heard. I would love to have you on my team, and I just
Want you to know that I'm the premier division! The beautiful
Part of the show is it goes back to you, who are you going to go with?
I'm really grateful for your feedback, and I will take it with
Me wherever I go, with singing. She was dope.
I just hugged Will. I.Am, he just touched me.
I think I found a unique voice in Kate. I wanted Will. I.Am, he turned
around and I thought this can't be happening. I loved her voice, it
Was like a Sade Macy Gray sandwich. There is more button-turning
Performance-pleasing performances are coming.
Jessie J's backing singer formers. # I turn with good intentions
Do you know what I love about your voice, is I can hear so much we can
do with it, because you're on my team, girl.
However, 17-year-old shop assistant, Ruth Ann St Luce, divided opinion
amongst the coaches. I wasn't laughing at the girl
singing, I was laughing at the state that Jessie J's in right now.
For some people in this world there is some that can sing and some can
s-ang! She picked a girl she shouldn't have picked, she was all
over the place. She did go off pitch, I'm here to work on someone
Who I feel could be phenomenal. She's definitely that person.
That falsetto was... Maybe they were playing in the wrong key. 17. I
couldn't sing like that when I was Alys Williams is a busy mum of two,
she's used to squabbling and crying, can she get the coachs to do the
same. I'm Allys, I'm a mum of twins and I sing. Being a mum of twins is
full on. I wake up in the morning with both of them, they are with me
then until they go to bed. There is an hour where I can put them in the
high chair and they have food, I get on the piano and sketch out
some new songs. Being a mum is fantastic, but not
the most glamorous job, really, especially with two of them, I'm
usually in the house looking like an absolute mess most of the time.
It would be nice to have a bit of glamour in my life, really.
The most nervous I have been in my entire life, honestly, more nervous
than before I had my twins. Obviously this audition could

What's your name? Allys. I think your voice is amazing, there was
nothing wrong with anything that you did. I was very nervous, I'm
sorry, I couldn't stop shaking. Was great, if that's what you sound
like nervous, wow. I didn't turn around because I'm on a mission to
pack my team with diversity, and I was trying to get the other coaches
to wake up. Hello, she's dope. They're not living in reality.
Have a button too, don't put it on us. I kept saying Danny, Danny, you
need here, I have somebody on my team you could compete with. I
shouldn't, next time I ain't telling you all what to do, you are
So dam fresh. You're Welsh, right. Yes? What part
of Wales? North Wales. By Bancard. I'm sorry I didn't hit the button,
you have a great voice. Thanks, that means a lot, Tom.
Sometimes the nerves get the better of you.
She was a great singer. Your nerves, because you're thinking, I wonder
what they are thinking, I wonder if they are liking it.
You know, that happens to everybody. That was the scariest thing I have
ever done, more scary than giving birth. And that's scary when you
have twins. I don't think I will ever be nervous again, really. No.
Now this artist has certainly been to the wardrobe maxed "rock star",
but in a blind aud diction does it match... blind awed, does it match
his image. I haven't always sung rock at all, I was a choir boy from
10-14. It made me what I am today, I can't
really knock it. I'm so far away, physically and
vocally to what I was back then. But I can definitely still hit the
high notes. My heart is in rock music, but unless you want to be in
a band and be really skint, it is very hard, unless you are a rock
star, which is ultimately what I want to be. I'm ready to rock.
This audition is so important for me, you only get one chance to make
a first impression. I have never been scared before in

Hello. I thought you were a phenomenal singer, you have a great
range, absolutely great. This is so tough, because your
voice is ridiculous, and your range is, I mean, I literally was just on
that last note. It was incredible. It is the top, top C for anyone who
wants to know! For me, you only get 90 seconds to really show what you
have got, I felt I only heard one layer of what you can do.
Probably did. I'm worried if that is all you can do. Thank you for
singing and showcases... showcaseing another genre of music
That we have been able to hear. It was so loud, the music. How come
you don't like loud music, you like that soft music, quiet. Like the
American pedosas that turn it up loud.
You're a star. Don't. I understand, I'm really a bit
confused, if I'm honest. I couldn't be more happy with what I did, I
sung incredible. I didn't that would happen, because I'm so
different. You won't meet anyone like me in this competition, and it
is a real shame. Sadly, Nathan's audition wasn't the
Stairway to heaven he was dreaming. What happened? Turn me around.
That's cheating. Sorry, I think it is like a little gnome. I just
should stop talking about gnomes. Since childhood Tyler James and his
best friend thought they would be singing together forever, last year
all that came to an end. My name is Tyler James, I'm 30 years old and
I'm a singer songwriter. When I was a teenager my best friend was Amy
Winehouse. We became friends when we were 12,
13, we both went to the same school. We have been best friends ever
since then. We were like two peas in a pod, we were like two halves
of the same person. Unfortunately last summer, worst day of my life,
Amy died. My whole life changed. Now she's here, she's here with me,
I know that. It is about me finding my own feet. The only way for me
that I will ever find that is through music and singing.
This competition is about me building up my confidence for
myself, you know. It is very important to me, very.

What's your name? My name is Tyler James. First I want to say thanks
for hitting and topping that off, through your performance you
sounded really good, that last falsetto thing you did, showed your
range and how smooth you can be at the same time, you're awesome.
Thanks, man. Thank you.
Hi, hello. Are you all right? Just nervous. You shouldn't be
nervous. I really enjoyed it. I'm really happy that you and Danny go
to the same hairdresser! Or doesn't, as the case may be.
Do you do that? Hair spray. Remember when I had hair like that.
Look what you have to go forward to. I really enjoyed it t I know that
song very well, though, maybe I'm so used to the Otis Redding version,
I knew him, he was a great guy, by the way.
I know a lot of people! I know the song so well, it is hard for me to
judge you singing that song. But I liked it.
So you're on my team, what? Cool, Well done.
Amazing. Thank you.
This is the start of a new chapter for you, isn't it? Yes, it is, I
have had the hardest year, it is important to me to go out there and
prove myself, you know. I just hope that, you know, in the next phase
of this that I just up my game and get back to the singer that I know
I can be. You are filling up your team quick.
That's because I'm focused, I'm on a mission.
Remember, the coaches know nothing about our artists, not even their
names. And Bo Bruce is happy about that, or should I say Lady
Catherine Anne Brudenell Bruce. My life I have thought people have
come to conclusions about who I am because I have a posh name and I
went to a posh school. People thinking there has been a silver
spoon in my mouth, it hasn't been like that, I have thought that for
a while. I have been around the music industry, and I feel like I
get so far, and then I feel judged by where I have come from.
To stand on the stage, and no-one no anything about the voice they
are hearing, I feel like none of that will matter.
I really, really, really, want someone to turn around in their
chair and say, you have got a wicked voice, let's go.

What's your name? I'm Bo. I didn't turn around because I was copying
Danny. I turned around because we deprb you picked the Usher and
David Getto song, and you didn't sing it anywhere like them, and you
were courageous and you gave it your own style, you're awesome.
Love a good clash of two different worlds meeting together. I would
have loved to heard that acoustic, I felt like I lost your voice in
the boom, boom, boom. I didn't lose it, I heard it, it was right there.
♪ It's my turn to talk ♪ Yeah
For me the only reason I didn't turned around, I would have liked
to have heard more power. That's fine. These two, you have a great
choice here. Over to Tom. # OK.
I really liked it, but I'm looking for something that hits me hard.
Personally for me, I wasn't looking for anything else but that voice,
you don't really need to have power to show I emotion, one thing I came
on to the show to find was a unique voice, so when you heard it the
second on the it would stand out, I really believe you have that type
of voice. Oh my God, I don't know what to do,
I'm meant to decide right now. Know what to do, when I provide I
provide a team, when I work with Michael, you don't need all that.
You don't need all that, you can be blinded by science, or go with your
gut and heart, I know we probably share the same record collection.
We eat the same soup, you eat miso soup, I eat that, it is the bomb,
miso, little green stuff in! Think you would be getting pure
honesty from me, you know where to Really! It is the beautiful part of
this show, is creative control, we give it back to the artist, you go
With Mr Woo woop woop woop there, I'm really honoured that you turned
around and said all those lovely things, I think you would be an
amazing leader. But I think I'm going to have a lot more in common
With you. I choose you. She didn't want miso soup! I think
you have made the perfect choice. We're so proud of you.
Team Danny. So in the hard world of music, miso
soup isn't impressing anyone. Is more the girl I needed, that is
the voice I wanted. That was amazing. That girl could really
compete with the girls I have got. I pressed first, and Will copied me.
Danny tries to play psychological games, and I do, it is all about
strategy and tactics. After a night of exciting auditions that have
blown our coaches away, they are closer to completing their teams of
ten. For me it is coming from here. You are the bomb. Don't trust
people who wear denim on denim. Far Will has recruited four new
vocalists, giving him seven all together. Right now I think my team
is really, really strong. While Danny has added four new name, he
has eight. It is going just as I planned. Jessie snapped up three
more singers and has eight. Feeling very blessed with my team.
Tom found two more artists, he too has eight on his team. I'm very
pleased with the people I have got already.
Next week, our final artists take to the stage. You are the reason I
came on this show. Anybody with lungs like that has to be something.
The competition reaches fever pitch. We don't want to give any
strategies away. You need to stop stealing people that should have
been with me. Emotions run high. As the coaches battle it out to
complete their teams. I'm just looking for the two
cherries to go on top. Aums supposed to listen to your gut.
