- The battles were epic. - Woo! - Pretty freaking dope.
Oh! Difficult, but epic.
Epic.
Come on!
And just when you think you can relax and breathe, no, you can't.
It's the knockouts.
This weekend, the coaches pick their teams
for next week's live quarterfinals.
That is hard.
Come on!
From each team of seven, only three can go through.
It's going to be really emotional, it's going to be difficult.
And now it's the acts who have creative control.
This is when the act chooses their own song.
Hopefully, they make the right choice,
cos it's very important.
Tonight it's all about me and Sir Tom.
I'm very excited to see how our teams stack up against each other.
- Kylie, seven must become three. - Are you ready?
As ready as I'll ever be, I suppose.
Their acts will sing one after another,
fighting for those three precious places.
Yeah!
You're in or you're out. No-one can steal you.
It's the knockouts.
- Gotcha. - This is hard, this is hard.
Hello and welcome to The Voice.
Now, so far, our artists have beaten the blinds,
won their battles and now here we are at the knockouts.
WHOOPING
Tonight, two coaches must pick their ultimate live show teams,
so let's meet those superstars.
Hashtag - "fresh", it's Will.i.am!
Our very own pop princess, it's Kylie.
Been there, done it, sung it - Sir Tom Jones!
And put on your riot gear - it's Ricky Wilson.
♪ I predict a riot
♪ I predict a riot... ♪
Ladies and gentlemen, our superstar coaches!
Now, these four stars may have front-row seats,
but now so much responsibility rests on their shoulders.
From teams of seven, they must select their top three artists
to take through to the live shows.
And it's not just the coaches who are making massive decisions.
The artists have chosen songs they hope will win them
one of those crucial spots.
And tonight's first knockout blow is coming from...Team Kylie.
Oh, yes!
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh!
My knockout team!
I think I've got a dynamic team, I think I've got different styles.
Yeah, I feel great about Team Kylie.
I think Kylie definitely wants to win.
Yeah, I think she's going to be dangerous.
Kylie's team is, like, super fresh.
She's a dark horse, is Kylie.
The breadth of talent and charisma
and amazingness that's in this team is awesome.
THEY WHOOP
The seven of us are all really close.
I love Kylie's team.
Everyone is quite caring towards me
and really does look after me backstage.
I've really made a lot of good friends here.
They've welcomed me like a long-lost brother, if you like.
At the same point, everybody wants to get through,
so it's going to be a difficult one.
I really want you to all be yourself,
and this is amazing you have the opportunity to do that,
cos it's your song.
'The difference now between battles and knockouts -
'song choices is everything,'
and it's their choice.
So just a little bit more pressure.
Oh, the devastating news is, as you know,
- that seven will become three. - Yeah.
It's going to be very tricky.
I am bricking it.
THEY LAUGH
It's a competition, at the end of the day.
I just need to be in these live shows so much.
It's getting harder because everyone is really, really good.
That's what's making me really nervous.
I'm just hoping I nail it on the night and get through to lives.
I'm sure if people are honest, there's a bit of them thinking,
"Oh, I hope he messes up now, I hope he messes up, I hope he messes up."
You either go through or you go home.
- It's make or break. - And it's simple as that.
KYLIE: If it doesn't happen for you in that performance,
you've got people either side of you
who will swoop in and take your place.
And there they are - give it up for Team Kylie.
Yeah!
Now Kylie can just take three of these seven
through to the live shows,
but she won't be making her decision until they've all sung.
Kylie, it's knockout time - how are you feeling?
I... Uh, I...
I have butterflies.
I'm super excited, but I'm nervous too, I have to say.
Obviously, your artists have got one last chance to impress you.
Any final words of advice for them, Kylie?
Um, well, I've had the pleasure of getting to know you all
a little bit through this process.
And one thing I could say across the board is just be yourself,
give it all you've got.
Let me get to know you a little bit more in this performance
and everyone at home as well.
Fantastic. Right, let's kick things off then.
First up, singing for her place on Kylie's live team,
everyone give it up for Leo.
- Ah, Leo. - I've fancied Charlene since I was this high.
Get out the way!
'Well, where do I start?'
Just makes me laugh.
Hmm-mm?!
In The Streets we had such an amazing time
and I think for me now, I just want to not be a sidekick anymore.
How are you going to sell yourself?
So I've decided to do I Want To Know What Love Is by Foreigner.
Power ballad.
I'm actually going to perform this song for Kylie.
I didn't expect you to choose a song like that, but I think it's gorgeous.
- Yeah, thank you. - I'm going to be waiting with an air grab.
Let's do it!
♪ I want to know what love is. ♪
'I think Leo does want to know what love is.'
Look out, don't pull me over! I'm just coming!
'I get a hug off Kylie and it just came out.'
You know I've been counting the hugs?
- Have I been counting your hugs? - No, I've been counting.
- Don't worry about it. - No, what are you trying to say?
Did I just say that out loud?
'The most cringiest situation I've ever been in my entire life.'
So, are we done here?
'I swear, if the ground could open up and swallow me, I would jump in.'
Epic fail!
'If I don't get through, I'll be super honest, I'll be super gutted.'
To have Kylie as a coach is amazing
and I just hope that that can continue.
Leo is a favourite of mine, but it doesn't guarantee him a place.
I have some really strong acts.
Let's go, Leo!
♪ I gotta take a little time
♪ A little time to think things over
♪ I'd better read between the lines
♪ In case I need it when I'm older
♪ In my life
♪ There's been heartache and pain

♪ Ooh, yeah. ♪
That's Leo, everyone.
He's really stepped up. Really good.
I can just imagine the relief once they've all performed.
You're all breathing, right?
Next up, singing for a place in the lives, give it up for Jai.
'Jai, she's covered in tats,
'but she's got this cute little face and this voice comes out of her.'
♪ Did you miss me? ♪
So she's unlike anyone else.
- What are you singing? - I am singing Take Your Mama Out. - Yay!
'When I'm performing this song,
'I will be singing it for every single mother in the crowd.'
Fantastic!
My son Kingston is only three
and he means everything to me
and I would love my son to be proud of me.
What's amazing about Jai is the tone that she has.
Now she has to be careful what she does with it.
♪ And a whole lot of fun. ♪
This song is tricky for Jai because of the timing.
'I don't know why it was so hard for me.'
I just couldn't get it in my head.
I wanted to encourage her
but I don't want to smother what is the essence of Jai.
- You don't need the 'wha-aat' cos then you're running out of time. - Yeah.
'Kylie's inspired me, so, yeah,
'I'm going to really have to deliver on the night because I really want
'to be in the lives more than anything right now.'

♪ Do it. ♪
Everyone give it up for Jai.
Oh, boy.
Yeah, that was great.
The third act fighting to stay on Team Kylie, it's Jade.
I got you.
You steamed the lenses on your blind auditions, you really did.
'Jade is sassy sex bomb.'
Wow, I felt that.
What song have you chosen?
- I've chosen to sing Blue Moon, Ella Fitzgerald's version. - Yeah?
Nice.
'I think it's a great choice
'cos now we're going to the more mature bluesy side.'
This is definitely my opportunity to show Kylie
that I'm not just a one-trick pony.
I don't just do pop and commercial.
I can really do the jazzy and soul aspect.
All right, let's hear it.
Jade can't perform the song where we feel like
we're watching an impersonation.
I'm looking forward to this.
'It can't sound like she's on Stars In Their Eyes.'
♪ Blue moon. ♪
This is the last round before the live shows.
I've literally got my fighting head on.
I know that I need to go out there now
and give it my absolute everything.
Thank you so much.

Make some noise for Jade Mayjean!
- I can't believe how strong your team is. - I know.
- You've dug yourself a pretty deep hole there. - Yeah. Oh, my God.
Now singing for a place in Kylie's final three,
it's Lee!
Come on, Lee! Come on!
♪ I just can't get you out of my head... ♪
Lee, probably the most unique voice I have on my team.
He takes a song and he does a Lee Glasson version.
Which song have you chosen?
I've chosen Careless Whisper by George Michael.
Ooh, nice!
The song that I'm singing is potentially a huge risk.
People might not like the fact that I'm changing, like, a classic song.
- Have you got more buff since you started this competition? - Possibly!
How about my guns, huh?!
I'm used to working in an office.
And now suddenly I'm spending days and days in the studio with Kylie,
rehearsing music, which is what I've always wanted to do so,
it's brilliant and I don't want it to end.

That's Lee, everyone.
Oh, my God!
They huggin', they huggin'.
That's a lotta love on stage, a lotta love on stage.
Now the newest member of Team Kylie, it's Femi!
- I just want to say his name. - Femi.
- Femi Santiago. - Santiago, huh?
Sounds like a pop star.
Femi was destined to be my steal.
♪ Just take me... ♪
From going through homelessness at such a young age
to such an extreme high of where I am right now
it was like Christmas came early, basically. It was brilliant.
I've chosen California Dreaming by Bobby Womack.
I think the challenge with California Dreaming is
it could sound a bit cliched.
It was a big risk, actually, picking this song.
But Kylie reacted in a way that I never expected her to react.
I forgot that I was working. I was just part of the Femi fan club!
THEY GIGGLE
That's beautiful!
I don't think my rehearsals could have gone any better
but it is a lot of pressure to take,
knowing that there are seven people on the team
and only three people actually can go through.
Ha-ha! I get another go! Ha-ha!
- So what you got? - KYLIE LAUGHS

Let's hear it for Femi, everyone!
Great song. Really great.
- That's a good steal. You stole him, right? - I stole him, yeah.
He can sing, that kid.
Oh, that was lovely. Beautiful.
Next, into Kylie's Knockouts, it's Rachael.
Go on there, girl! Go on!
Here we go, Rachael, here we go, Rachael!
Rachael is my sweet 16
and from the blind audition,
hearing that voice, you could tell it was a young voice,
turn around, she's absolutely gorgeous.
For the knockouts, I've decided to sing New York by Paloma Faith.
♪ Her name was New York
♪ New York... ♪
I wanted to show Kylie that I'm versatile and can sing upbeat songs.
And hopefully Kylie likes it.
OK, biggest thing I want to say is don't worry.
I can remember being 16
and I didn't have an opportunity like this,
so I imagine, when she's not terrified with nerves,
she must be having the best time.
She's like... This microphone is going to be snapped in half!
I'm from a small village called Drumsurn in Northern Ireland,
so being here now, it is scary.
It is scary.
She really is not confident, because she gets super-duper nervous.
- How do you feel? - Good.
She said "good", everybody! She said "good"!
I Just have to be confident and I have to make the song my own,
because I don't want to go home yet. I really want to get to Lives.

Make some noise for Rachael!
Let's go, Rachael!
She's great. She's a ready-made pop star. Ready to go.
16, I think, isn't she?
She had to fight through some nerves there.
- Have you got any plan? - I had a plan, I changed the plan.
I make another plan, I change it.
Then I was, like, the decision is just going to come.
Last up for Team Kylie is Jamie.
Go on, Jamie!
- I'm happy he's there. - He's always smiling, so happy to be there.
Jamie J brings joy, he really does.
♪ Because I'm happy...♪
- Jamie. - Are you blushing?
Yeah, he's such a nice guy.
A couple of months ago I was gigging in pubs.
The next thing you know you're singing with Kylie. It's brilliant!
I'm singing Sex On Fire by Kings of Leon.
I'm elated already. I love that track!
Picking the song for the knockouts
is the biggest decision I've made so far.
I'm putting on the performance of my life.
♪ Cos they're watching, they're watching... ♪
Stop. Stop.
Can we try even less?
We don't just want to be hit over the head for the entirety of the song.
You don't want to be just screaming the house down.
Or maybe you do, Sex On Fire, I don't know! HE LAUGHS
Beep, beep, beep, beep - I'm backing up, I'm backing right on up.
I've got to get through the knockouts, I've got to get to lives
and smash it and just show the audience what I've got.
He's going to show his sexy side tonight.
Yeah? Must be the coaching!

Go on!
Go on, Jamie!
Good energy. Ah-hah!
Wow, what a great performances. Let's hear it for Team Kylie.
Woop! Woop!
Kylie, congratulations.
They've done it, seven standout performances. You must be so proud.
There's no way of choosing three people and being happy.
That's, like... That's it.
I've tried to put the jigsaw every which way and it doesn't happen so...
They've made this difficult for me.
Let's hear from your fellow coaches.
Will.i.am, talk to us about the knockouts.
- First off, I think the song selections were too obvious. - OK.
Except for Jamie's.
The music industry is not just about looking at what you do,
but also paying attention to the competition.
Like, if Ricky was doing a concert
and you were playing Glastonbury, you're going to want to know
- what the opener did, because you would have to bring it. - Yeah.
I don't think you guys are paying attention to how explosive that was.
So I'm right in thinking if that was your team,
- Jamie would definitely go through for you? - Jamie would go through.
He would be, like, my centrepiece.
Then I'd be, like, all right, I know Femi can bring it
so I'll put him up next to him.
And Leo is freaking amazing too.
Ricky, if you were Kylie right now,
what would be going through your mind?
Wow, it's like picking lobsters in a restaurant.
SHE LAUGHS
Singing lobsters. Sorry, that didn't make sense.
Sorry, Will, that's straight out of your book, that.
No, no, I never would have said that!
LAUGHTER
- Who would you pick? - I'll be more general.
I will say that I think the boys did a little bit better than the girls.
And I really didn't expect that.
OK. Thank you.
Who would you pick, Tom?
Erm, Jamie.
AUDIENCE MEMBER: Go on, Jamie!
And Femi.
The way I look at it is we've got three live shows to go.
I think Rachael fits that bill.
OK. Great stuff.
Thank you very much, Tom.
OK, now it's time where we get serious.
Kylie, seven must become three. It's time to make your knockout decision.
AUDIENCE SHOUT CONTESTANT NAMES OUT
Kylie, who gets the first place in your team?
AUDIENCE: Kylie! Kylie! Kylie!
I just want to thank each and every one of you for being part of my team.
And really, I'm a bit like mother hen,
I feel very, very proud and privileged to have shared this time
with you, so thank you very, very much.
Starting to get really serious. I need to know the first name
of the person going through to the live shows.
All right.
The first person I'm taking through to the live shows is...
Lee.
Congratulations, Lee!
Lee, you are through to the live shows. Come and see Kylie.
Massive congrats, buddy.
You absolutely knocked it out of the park.
Anything you'd like to say to Kylie?
I've learned so much from you already and I just can't wait
to continue, so thank you so much. Thank you.
OK, so now, just two places remain on Team Kylie.
Kylie, who gets the next place?
Um...
The next place is going to someone who...
who has been consistent,
really consistent. I know, every time, they can deliver.
I don't have an ounce of worry.
Jamie!
Congratulations, Jamie!
Congratulations, Jamie,
you are through to the live shows.
Come and give Kylie a big hug, Jamie. Congratulations.
Thank you! Thank you so much.
- You all right? - Thank you! Yeah!
Wow!
The Lee-ster, he smashed it!
Well done, Jamie. There's a lot of love on this stage.
It's getting emotional, right?
Uh, yeah, yeah. Like, er, meeting everyone and the experiences,
you can't explain how good it is.
Like...
Well, listen, congratulations.
You're through to the live show, along with Lee. Well done, boys.
Now, Kylie has just one more name to add to the line-up.
Kylie, who's getting the last crucial place on your team?
HE MOUTHS
OK.
I'm so sorry to be saying goodbye to four of you.
Thank you for being part of my journey on this show.
That means a lot to me.
First, then...
The third person I'm taking through to the live rounds is...
Rachael.
Congratulations, Rachael!
Smashed it! Congratulations.
Well done, Rachael. You are the last person in Kylie's team.
You're through to the live shows.
Unlucky!
Come over here, Rachael, give it up for Rachael!
Come here, Rachael, give us a hug.
Well done, hun. Congratulations. How you feeling right now?
I, I can't speak! Like, thank you so much for taking a chance
and...sorry for messing up and being nervous, but...
Listen, don't be sorry. You're through to the live shows
along with Lee, Jamie and Rachael - give it up for the new Team Kylie!
She was brilliant, yes!
Well done!
Well done, Kylie.
Kylie, they haven't made it to the final three
but you must be so proud of these four.
I'm, you're all here because you are very talented
and you have so much more to give,
and I wish you all the very, very best.
Everyone, show your appreciation for Femi, Jade, Leo and Jai!
- I'm sorry, it's so hard. - Hey!
It was always going to be difficult.
Like I said to them, seven to three is just not a lot of fun
but it had to be done.
The Kylie hug count has unfortunately come to an end now.
But I've got a poster of her at home, so I might hug that!
THEY LAUGH
Oh, my God! I can't believe it.
- I wouldn't have let that Femi go, would you? - No, I wouldn't have.
- Yeah, he was... - He's something else, he is.
Yeah.
Some of them picked some very clunky songs.
Put it this way, it's like the hot model with the nice physique...
- WOLF WHISTLE - ..they should put a curtain on.
That's the metaphor.
The songs they sing did not show the physique vocally.
I would have gone Femi over Rachael. Rachael does have the potential.
I think she's a pop star ready to go. Make the video, stick it on telly.
LAUGHTER
SQUEALING
They each represent something different
and hopefully that's going to give Team Kylie a good chance.
- I've done it. Live shows! - Boy, oh, boy, oh, boy.
- I think I've broken myself. - Yeah. - It's rotten.
Well, Kylie's made her decision, mine's to come.
Like her, I'm dreading it.
We're all in it to win it. Did I rhyme then?
Yes, you did. That was good.
- Yeah. - Yeah. Hell, yeah.
Of course I think I've got the strongest team.
Everyone thinks their group of friends
are the best friends in the world.
Apart from maybe the friends on Friends.
We'd all like to be part of that gang, right?
HE GIGGLES
It is up to Sir Tom now.
If he needs to hold my hand, he can.
- Don't bore us, get to the chorus. - Don't bore us, get to the chorus.
Have you never heard don't bore us...
- No, I've never heard that before. - Tom, I taught Tom something.
- Yeah! - Let's skip to the good bit.
Well done, Kylie Minogue
OBE.
RICKY!
Next up, going from seven to three it's Team Tom.
My knockout team is the best one.
- All hail Sir Tom. - Wow!
I think he has acts who cover different styles, different genres.
They can sing, they perform and I don't have two singers alike.
Are they any good? I don't know. Let me think...
- Of course. - Yeah.
Some of his team are just legendary.
Now we can see who's got the complete package,
who's got the potential to be a star.
Good morning.
- Everybody happy? - Yes.
- With the knockouts, you have to choose your own song. - What? - Oh.
- That is a big decision for the singer. - This is stressing me out.
They need to pick the right song.
It's only one minute 20 seconds to get over what I can do.
They must choose wisely.
The competition is very, very fierce.
The talent this year is insane.
I'm not going to hold back so I don't see why anyone else should.
- This stage is go hard or go home. - Good luck to you all. - Thank you.
I can't wait to hear them.
Only three can go through to the lives.
You can either be strong or you can crumble. So you better be strong.
And there they are. Give it up for Team Tom.
Everybody feeling all right?
So, Tom only has three places in his live show line-up
and he'll make his decision once the entire team have performed.
- Tom, are you ready for these knockouts? - Yes. - I was worried then.
I've told everybody that it all depends on what happens tonight.
Just bring it, give it the best you can.
That's all I've got to say.
OK, first up and singing to stay on Team Tom,
everybody give it up for Celestine.
- Feeling the pressure, Tom? - Yes. Pressure. - Need a shoulder rub?
- Celestine is a vibrant person. You bring the thing, baby. - The thing.
Yeah, you've got that thing. Her face lights up when she sings.
- So the song... - Yes, I'm doing You Might Need Somebody. - Right.
I've chosen this song
because the sentiment of You Might Need Somebody, it's so beautiful.
When I am singing I'm thinking about my kids,
I'm thinking about the people who, in my life,
have influenced me in such a way that has brought me to where I am now.
It's always important for a singer to relate to a song.
Celestine, she can do that.
Yeah!
You do what you just did and you don't have to worry about a thing.
Thank you. The competition is fierce
but I really want to get through to the live shows.

I'd miss that if you had dyed it another colour.
- It's not going to happen. - Pink, pink! What song have you picked?
I've chosen to do I Love Rock'n'Roll by Joan Jett & The Blackhearts.
Ah! I love that song.
Everybody knows it as this hardcore rock, you know, anthem.
I thought, "I want to strip it back and turn it into a Melissa song."
She was... ♪ I love rock'n'roll... ♪
It's a different approach.
I've never heard it like that.
Joan Jett didn't do it like that.
- How are you feeling? - Nervous.
When you change something, which Melissa has done,
it's always a risk but she is going to have fun with it.
Don't lose the fun. Get that across.
I'm just desperate to prove myself and get through into the lives.
I've got to impress Tom and make sure I am in his final three.

SHOUTING
Well done.
I better sit down.
- That was explosive. - Yeah. That was good.
Up next, singing to be one of Tom's top three, it's Gary.
Gary Poole.
Thank you.
- He's going to blow us all way. - He can sing.
Gary is a vocal teacher which is great
because his strong point is he's so musical. He's got that soul thing.
He's a natural performer. What song is it?
Freedom by George Michael.
- Oh, right. - Nice up-tempo song. I love the lyrics. I love the song.
And I think it's just a real crowd-pleasing song.
It is a sing-along song but it remains to be seen
if everybody else thinks that.
You're not smiling enough. It's worrying me.
He has to be careful because it's very easy when you're that equipped,
which he is, vocally, to overdo it.
It's either going to be brilliant or it is not going to work.
- It's one of those, isn't it? - It's not an easy song to sing.
I don't know if he can do it any stronger.
If he can then I'm looking forward to seeing it and hearing it.
I can feel the live shows. I am almost there, I need to go through.
It's plagued my every thought.
I really, really want this.

It's going to get difficult now.
- Yeah! - Yeah.
- That's the way I love it. - KYLIE LAUGHS
Next up, it's Bizzi.
Go, Bizzi!
Bizzi!
- I'm just thinking of in the battles, how great Bizzi was. - Yeah.
Bizzi is a soul singer, he's a gospel soul singer.
- You dressed up for it. - Thank very much.
With the bow tie and everything.
He comes from a family of gospel singers
and he's the only one in my team that sings like that.
The song I'm singing is when I Need You, Leo Sayer.
- I am putting a Bizzi twist to it. - Thank God for that.
I used to sing it growing up and it's one of my favourite songs.
I did a little jazz run but Tom did warn me
not to be too oobly-oobly.
- What? - You know what I mean. - I've got no idea.
- I call them oobly-ooblies. - OK.
I don't think you'll find that in a dictionary.
An oobly-oobly is my own creation. It's when somebody does a jazz run.
♪ Hey-hey-hey... ♪
I'm not particularly fond of it, to me it's oobly-oobly.
Bizzi has to stick to his roots.
He must establish the melody first, don't go too far off it.
He needs to keep that in mind.
The further you get in the competition,
the further you want to get.
It's going to be a challenge but I intend to give it my all.

Sorry, everybody, sometimes I get the feeling.
Next into the knockouts, it's Georgia.
Yeah!
I like this girl. I think Georgia is good.
I like Georgia.
- Georgia! - Tom. - Georgia, she's got a definite style and she is fun.
She can sing.
This song I am singing is very personal between myself
and my fiance. I'm singing Three Little Birds by Bob Marley.
We're getting married in May this year and this is our wedding song.
Georgia, she just has to have fun with this song.
- Get into that side of it. A sassy thing. - I am related to Adele.
She is my cousin but I really feel in this competition
- I have found my own voice. - I liked that.
Every time I kind of think about the lives,
I have mini heart palpitations. I would absolutely love to be there.
I can't even describe how that would feel.

WHOOPING
- Very well done. That was amazing. - Yeah, I liked that.
- She, she's your little star. - Yeah.
Georgia, Georgia, Georgia!
Next, Tom's newest team member, it's his steal, Steven.
Come on, Steven.
Whoo-whoo-whoo!
- Your loss is my gain, baby. - You're right.
Steven is my steal. I thought he won the battle.
I'm praying there is going to be a steal after this.
- He did it, he delivered. - I'm so, so relieved.
He's not like anybody else. He's a performer.
I'm going to be doing Grace Kelly by Mika.
I need to show Tom my performance and this is a great song to do it with.
I'm glad it's you singing it, not me.
That's not an easy song to sing and for him to take that on,
he's got to have big...
There are no second chances in the knockouts.
This is it, it's the be all and end all.
It's all down to me and I've got to get it right.
- I love this song. - You're best pals with Mika.
I had to train myself not to sing it through dinner.

Steven, everybody.
Oh.
- That was a double spin. - He did the double, it could be the triple.
Steven, are you a professionally trained dancer?
- A little bit, a little bit. - I did that once, I spun off the stage.
Last up for Team Tom, it's Sally.
GEORGIA WHOOPS
With Sally, she brings experience.
Because she opened for Bob Dylan
and she opened for a lot of folk singers.
I think she thought her career was over with.
It was so beautiful that I couldn't help but sing.
This girl is only just starting as far as I'm concerned.
- How are you doing? - I'm well, thank you. - Good.
After my husband died, my singing, it did pretty much go on to
the backburner but now I am so enjoying myself.
I want to go as far as I can in the competition.
I'm going to sing Walk On By.
It's a song that reminds me of when I was a teenager
and I wanted to do something different with it.
Less is more.
You don't have to bash ten bells out of something.
I like to change things.
Once you have established the melody, then you can change it.
It's been a really interesting journey. I'm really enjoying it.
Yeah!
Sally brings an aura that she has.
People feel it in the room.
- It is magical. All right, my love. - Thank you.

Please show your appreciation for Sally.
And let's hear it for the seven members of Team Tom.
So there they are, but Tom, you are only minutes from making them
a team of three for the live quarterfinals.
Team Tom, Team Tom.
That was beautiful.
- She makes the room stop. - Yeah. - Do you need a tissue? Hankie?
RICKY: She has that thing.
What have you got in that jacket?
Have you got a machine that makes everybody sing wonderful in there?
Oh, you know.
Well done with that one, Tom.
- It's just the third one I've got problems with. - Really? - Yeah.
If I was going to give you any advice, which I wouldn't try
and play tactics, I would go with your heart.
- You know exactly what to do with his voice. - Yeah. I thought so.
- But it's tough. - Yeah.
SHOUTING
This is hard, this is hard.
Melissa!
So, Tom, this is your biggest decision yet.
Before you make it, let's talk to the others.
Kylie, let's start with you. What were your thoughts
on the performances that we just saw?
They've all had the Tom effect.
- Golden ears. - Golden ears, right.
Was there one particular performance that stood out for you?
Erm, there was a few.
If I was to just say one,
I have a slight obsession with Georgia.
I think she's fantastic.
Will, what did you think of the song choices that our acts made?
The best one, that, like,
blew me away,
was Georgia's...
..because of the twist.
She reinvented something that...
I wasn't expecting a curveball like that.
It was really fantastic.
There are lots of experienced singers up there on Tom's team,
- do you think that showed tonight? - Yeah. - I mean, totally.
Sally has always been one by favourites.
But it's not just experience,
it's like drawing on that emotion and you hear it pouring out.
She takes you with her.
OK, Tom. Let's talk through your team.
- Firstly though, do you think you have a winner up there? - Yes.
- I know I've got the winner. - Can we say a classic "yeah"?
Yeah!
OK, Tom, are you ready?
- I'm as ready as I'll ever be, I suppose. - OK.
I must say this, this is the hardest part cos there are seven
people and only three can go.
Four have got to go home and that's a big thing,
that's a big decision for anybody to make.
Especially me, right now.
Breathe in, breathe out.
OK, Tom, it's time to make your knockout decision.
SHOUTING
Tom, who gets the first place on your team?
SHOUTING
Sally.
Sally, congratulations.
You are staying on Team Tom.
- Well done. - You got it. You were brilliant.
- Come on, babe. Give me your hand. - Thank you.
- OK? - You look fantastic tonight. - Thank you, love.
So your boys are up there looking immensely proud.
And you are going through to the live shows, so well done.
Congratulations. Give it up for Sally, everybody.
Tom has two places remaining.
Tom, who gets your second place?
SHOUTING
HE MOUTHS
What are you thinking, Tom?
Well, I think I know who the second person is going to be.
It is the third one I have difficulty with.
- But you know, one step at a time, right? - Absolutely.
SHOUTING
Georgia.
Ah!
- Georgia, well done. We are going to be seeing you. - Oh, my God!
WHISTLING
- I can't really talk right now. - You deserve it. - Thank you.
- Lovely singer. - I feel honoured, I really do.
- Thanks, Tom. - All right, my love.
- Thank you. - Georgia, well done.
- Can you believe it! You are one of the final three. - Really? - Yes.
It's happening.
You're going to the live shows!
So, Georgia joins Sally right here on Tom's final team.
We are about to discover his all-important third choice.
Tom, who is the final artist staying on your team?
SHOUTING
I don't know who he's going to go for.
(Bizzi, Bizzi.)
Bizzi.
Bizzi, congratulations.
You are the final member of Team Tom going through to the live shows.
Well done.
Thanks a lot, Tom. Thanks a lot.
Let's do it.
Bizzi, well done. Congratulations.
What is that headshake for?
Though it's very good to be on TV, I'm very emotional right now.
Are you really? It was absolutely brilliant.
That was well done and we will see you at the live shows.
Thank you so much.
Give it up for Team Tom, everybody.
- Yeah, you did the right thing. - Yeah, I think so.
WHISTLING
Tom, they've done you and themselves proud, haven't they?
- They have been fantastic. - Yeah, definitely.
Definitely, I'm proud to have been their coach.
Guys, thank you so much for being part of The Voice.
Everybody, put your hands together
for Celestine, Melissa, Gary and Steven.
- You were great. - Take care.
Goodbye.
WHISTLING
Yeah.
- Well done, Tom. - Thanks. - It's funny how it's boiling down, like.
Now, you suddenly look at your team and go ,"Wow, it's strong."
- Do you know what I mean? - Yeah.
When you first started with 12, you go, "Oh, you know."
And you get to seven and you go, "Heh, you know."
And now you've got three and you go, "Wow!"
Tom's team was pristine.
He picked the right people. Bizzi, fantastic.
And with Tom's guidance, he could be pretty ferocious.
Georgia is great. I've always thought she has been sensational.
I didn't turn for her. What an idiot.
Sally is hypnotising. When she performs, we are under her spell.
The energy in the room changes.
I think he chose well.
OK, that's it. What a night.
Two teams are complete.
Make some noise for Team Kylie, everyone.
And finally, it's Team Tom, everyone!
Join us tomorrow for more incredible performances
and game-changing knockouts as the coaches continue
their mission to find The Voice.
- Good night. - Good night.
Tomorrow night...
Now, Mr Wilson, are you ready for this?
- It's Will and Ricky's turn. - It's not going to be easy, is it?
As they decide their final teams of three
for next week's live quarterfinals.
That's hard, Will.
- Everybody went quiet when the light went on. - It's all or nothing.
Who will stay?
Who will be on the floor?
As the knockout weekend concludes.
I don't know what to do.
Go with your heart, Ricky.
