Transcript
00:00:00I
00:00:08Get really excited about discovering new artists. I really want to push hard so that somebody's dream comes true
00:00:17I'm coming on the voice to inspire my kids to follow their dreams and anything's possible
00:00:24Starting singing six months ago and now to be here on the voice. It's
00:00:27I couldn't have planned this in my wildest dreams
00:00:32The stage that I've dreamed of since I was a little boy
00:00:36It's all about just get in there and give it a go. Oh
00:00:40Just give it a go
00:00:46When I started it didn't seem like a dream was possible and then audition changed my life changed my whole life
00:00:57Oh
00:01:10Please welcome
00:01:12I
00:01:24Yes together for Kate
00:01:31American superstar
00:01:43I
00:01:47Don't ever want to think of life without music especially my life without music for me music is absolutely everything
00:01:53This is my opportunity to make my biggest dream come true. So I'm really excited. I
00:02:01Would say I'm a very bubbly enthusiastic
00:02:05Passionate person. I'm like a big kid
00:02:08Which is really quite strange because I dress
00:02:11Like someone who's older boys, I
00:02:15Absolutely love vintage clothing
00:02:18When I'm wearing old clothes, you know vintage pieces and I'm seeing
00:02:23Music, you know that's inspired so heavily by the blues and those older eras of music
00:02:27I feel like that is me to a tee that is me in my element
00:02:32I definitely have to be an old soul because I feel like I come to life in those moments
00:02:37So I've been working as a music journalist since I was 17
00:02:40I spent so many years interviewing other musicians and I realized it's my time now. I want to be the one getting interviewed
00:02:53So I'm seeing one of the biggest songs of all time
00:02:58There's a lot of pressure to sing a song that's as big as this one
00:03:01Usually the people who sing this song have amazing big incredible voices
00:03:06But for me, I'm an untrained singer I taught myself to sing there's so much going through my head don't stuff up
00:03:13Put on a good show. So I'm just gonna have to do what I can
00:03:18I was walking
00:03:34This is a man
00:03:47Oh
00:04:01Man made the car
00:04:17Maybe
00:04:47a
00:05:02Woman
00:05:17That was good, my name is Chloe K. I'm 26 years old. I'm from Penrith. I'm a music journalist. Yeah
00:05:33You know how to use that thing not when talking apart
00:05:38Chloe you are a powerhouse. That was very exciting. Thank you
00:05:43And it was so funny because I was like I wanted to hit the button sooner because I wanted to watch you as well as hear
00:05:48You and I was like waiting. I'm like waiting for the note. And then after I turned you hit a
00:05:53Wicked high note at the end of that song that I was like waiting for and
00:05:58The tone of it the control and the power and I want to hear you sing so many things
00:06:04I'm a blues girl. Yes, but I just love blues, you know with that beautiful
00:06:09Guitar heavy stuff and I think for me I really want to help keep the blues alive. Yeah, there's not many young women doing it
00:06:18There's like a little rock and roll in there too you like
00:06:21I know you wanted to turn around sooner. But let me just say that I did there's been not a voice like you yet on this
00:06:43I
00:06:45There's been not a voice like you yet on the stage.
00:06:49Aw, thank you.
00:06:54Seriously, I don't turn around like that for many people.
00:06:58And, like, just to hear you and just then to see you.
00:07:01You look like you're from another era.
00:07:03You're so, like, unassuming.
00:07:04Like, just this soul, like, from the depths of you.
00:07:08And to work with someone like you would be just out of this world.
00:07:12I know you have such a love for blues and soul,
00:07:14but that could go into so many different places.
00:07:17Like, you don't lose that soul by not doing soul music.
00:07:20And it's interesting, like, when I first started out,
00:07:23I started out with a song called Blue,
00:07:24which was, like, super, super country
00:07:26in a world where it was very kind of country pop
00:07:29at that moment in time.
00:07:30And I wasn't afraid to step out of that
00:07:32and, like, kind of do a throwback.
00:07:34And I think that there's a way to, like,
00:07:36keep that retro piece about you and still make it current
00:07:40because there's not a lot of people doing that.
00:07:42And I think that makes you really unique.
00:07:44You blew me away.
00:07:45Oh, thank you, Leanne.
00:07:46Absolutely blew me away.
00:07:47I would love, love, love, love, love to have you on Team Leanne.
00:07:53You know, I can tell that you're self-taught, Chloe.
00:07:55It's just one of those gifts.
00:07:57I think it comes from the soul
00:07:59and hence why you love soul music
00:08:01because that's exactly where you sing from.
00:08:03It's just so immediate, a voice like that.
00:08:07You know, I could have turned really soon.
00:08:11I think sometimes things stop me in my tracks as a coach
00:08:15and I just sort of got lost a little bit, to be honest.
00:08:18Oh, stop it, guys.
00:08:19I wanted to turn around even sooner.
00:08:21But the voice, what's the reason for now coming onto this show?
00:08:25I just thought, you know,
00:08:26I'm used to interviewing people like you guys
00:08:28and it's my turn now.
00:08:30Yes!
00:08:31CHEERING
00:08:33Yes, it is.
00:08:35Have you ever interviewed Guy Sebastian?
00:08:37No.
00:08:38Not you guys personally.
00:08:40Oh, right.
00:08:41I was just going to,
00:08:42because I've heard that he can be a bit difficult in interviews.
00:08:45Massive, yeah.
00:08:46Hugely.
00:08:47That's what I'm known for.
00:08:49Love you.
00:08:50I would love you on my team.
00:08:51I'm sure all of us would.
00:08:53CHEERING
00:08:57That was freakishly good.
00:09:00I was really surprised when I saw you
00:09:03that that voice has come out of this vehicle.
00:09:07And even your speaking voice is sort of higher and more demure
00:09:10and then when you sing, obviously,
00:09:12you can access this amazing, like, ballsy,
00:09:15like, such big balls you've got.
00:09:17I tap into it.
00:09:18I think there's amazing scope for us to explore that together.
00:09:22You're just a natural singer.
00:09:24You have a gift.
00:09:25I would love to have you on Team Kate.
00:09:27Thank you, Kate.
00:09:28CHEERING
00:09:29I'm going to go in and I'm going to get a little cocky here
00:09:35and I see a major rock star in front of me
00:09:38and I feel like that's the fantasy.
00:09:40It's this, like, 70s, retro, renaissance rock star
00:09:46and maybe you need a rock star to see that in you,
00:09:50touring with a 70s rock band.
00:09:52I'm just saying.
00:09:53But, I mean, the coolest thing is that you know your stuff
00:09:56and I would love to help you just bring it to life on stage
00:09:59at its maximum capacity
00:10:01and just make sure that you're getting everything you want
00:10:04out of this competition.
00:10:06And I know I could do that for you.
00:10:07Cool.
00:10:08Yeah.
00:10:09That's very hard choice.
00:10:11This is the big decision.
00:10:12What do you think?
00:10:15Here you go, Whit.
00:10:17Kate!
00:10:18Kate!
00:10:24I am definitely going to go with Adam.
00:10:30He understands the vision.
00:10:32He gets it.
00:10:33Yes!
00:10:37I'm so excited.
00:10:38So excited.
00:10:39Yes, me too.
00:10:40I have so many ideas.
00:10:41Yeah.
00:10:42And I know you do too.
00:10:48Yay!
00:10:50I'm so proud of you.
00:10:51Well done.
00:10:52Hi, everybody.
00:10:53I'm Adam.
00:10:54Hi.
00:10:55Who is everybody?
00:10:56Hi, Mom.
00:10:57How are you?
00:10:58Nice to meet you.
00:10:59What's your name?
00:11:00Janine.
00:11:01Nice to meet you, Janine.
00:11:02Hi.
00:11:03So I'm sure you've heard her sing a zillion things.
00:11:04So you know what she can do, obviously.
00:11:05So this wasn't a surprise that she killed it.
00:11:07I feel like I'm in good hands.
00:11:09Yes, you are.
00:11:10I promise.
00:11:11Wow.
00:11:12I don't think I've recovered from that yet.
00:11:14Gutted.
00:11:15Yeah.
00:11:16I was very disappointed in that loss because she was absolutely incredible.
00:11:20I'm so excited.
00:11:21I'll see you soon.
00:11:22Yeah.
00:11:23I mean, I was selling it.
00:11:24Not enough, obviously.
00:11:28Oh, I'm so excited to work with Adam Lambert.
00:11:30How cool are you?
00:11:31That's sick.
00:11:32That is actually sick.
00:11:35Should have blocked Adam.
00:11:36People love Adam, and he's very button-happy.
00:11:39I've got, like, girl power on my team.
00:11:41It's going to be so great.
00:11:42It's okay.
00:11:43It's okay.
00:11:44I think Adam's going to, you know, get a little payback a little later, for sure.
00:11:53Coming up...
00:11:54It is probably the first time I've really done something that's a passion for myself.
00:11:58Can a singer from a famous family...
00:12:01You've got a famous brother.
00:12:03Yeah, that's my brother over there.
00:12:04Hit the right call with the coaches...
00:12:07What?
00:12:08I mean, that's insane.
00:12:11And which artist...
00:12:12Wow.
00:12:13Has Kate seen red?
00:12:17Thank you for continuing to interrupt, Adam, but you didn't actually turn your chair, so...
00:12:22I did.
00:12:23Yeah, you did.
00:12:24I'm pitching two over here.
00:12:25Don't just fight me.
00:12:26You've got to fight Adam too.
00:12:27Goddammit.
00:12:44Get rid of the shakes, you know?
00:12:47I'm Priscilla Stanley.
00:12:49I'm 25, and I'm from Melbourne.
00:12:53I am currently a sales consultant, and I put my little headset on.
00:12:56So, past the time, I do sing to customers, and I do social media to showcase my music.
00:13:02I have to sing.
00:13:03You know how people brush their teeth?
00:13:05I've got to sing as soon as I wake up.
00:13:08I grew up in Malaysia.
00:13:11But I wanted to study music.
00:13:13My parents moved to Australia so I can pursue music full-time.
00:13:20Auditioning for The Voice makes me feel like I'm doing my parents proud.
00:13:24You know, we've moved all the way here to do music, and I get to be on The Voice.
00:13:29There's only one lifetime, so make the most of it.
00:13:32I'm very, very lucky to have really, really supportive parents.
00:13:35Love you.
00:13:37All the best.
00:13:39The song I'm doing is Battle Scars by Guy Sebastian.
00:13:42Yeah, I really look up to him.
00:13:45I am taking a big risk by singing a coach's song.
00:13:48Well, I hope that he's going to like it.
00:13:52It's important for me to turn a chair for my parents.
00:14:01I feel like I'm giving something back to them, and I just want to make them proud.
00:14:09Here we go.
00:14:39Yeah.
00:15:09Come on.
00:15:39Battle scars
00:15:46These battle scars
00:16:03Wow.
00:16:07Okay.
00:16:08My name is Priscilla.
00:16:09I'm 25, and I'm from Melbourne.
00:16:13That was really stunning.
00:16:15And I think when you started out, I don't know, maybe you were a little bit nervous
00:16:18or just took a little bit of time to find your way into the song,
00:16:22but then all of a sudden it just opened up, and I was just lifted up by that.
00:16:27You've got a beautiful, distinct tone.
00:16:30Thank you so much.
00:16:31I appreciate it.
00:16:32Yeah.
00:16:33I mean, I don't know.
00:16:34I'm not sure what that song is.
00:16:36I've never heard it before.
00:16:39But whatever it was, you know, you've made it your own.
00:16:43Yeah.
00:16:44I can't imagine the original being any better.
00:16:46That's what I'm saying.
00:16:47No.
00:16:48You're amazing.
00:16:52Firstly, hi.
00:16:54Hi.
00:16:55I follow you.
00:16:56You follow me.
00:16:57You do.
00:16:58I do.
00:16:59Priscilla Stanley?
00:17:00Priscilla Stanley.
00:17:01I heard you sing something, and I might have even messaged you to say, wow.
00:17:04Wow.
00:17:08It's one song I just never get tired of singing.
00:17:10The progression and everything about it just always moves me still.
00:17:13Yeah.
00:17:17And to hear it...
00:17:23Yeah, show us how it's done.
00:17:26Would that help my chances if we were to sing it together?
00:17:31I'm not going to sing it.
00:17:35Can I harmonise with you?
00:17:37Of course.
00:17:38Please.
00:17:39I'll be your backup singer, because it's about you today.
00:17:42Let's do it.
00:17:43It's our plan.
00:17:44All right.
00:17:45These bad old scars don't look like they're fading
00:17:51Don't look like they're ever going away
00:17:56They ain't never going to change
00:18:01These bad old scars
00:18:09Yeah.
00:18:11There you go.
00:18:20Now...
00:18:21Are we swapping?
00:18:22I really don't think you should just go with the obvious, you know?
00:18:25I mean, he's like, oh, I'll sing backgrounds with you, darling.
00:18:28I mean, come on, Guy.
00:18:30That's not fair.
00:18:31Come on.
00:18:32I think it did come across a bit desperate.
00:18:34It did.
00:18:35I admit.
00:18:36I just want to say, there's so much more in the tank with you.
00:18:39You were doing the most ridiculous runs.
00:18:42Well, that's what got me.
00:18:43I wasn't totally sold on the very last run you did.
00:18:46The last run.
00:18:47Yeah.
00:18:48Like, it gave me all the feels.
00:18:49So precise.
00:18:50So effortless.
00:18:51Yeah.
00:18:52That's beautiful.
00:18:53I would love you on team, Guy.
00:18:58You've got such a cool vibe.
00:19:00I'm actually really sad I didn't turn around.
00:19:02I think for me, it was a bit of a lack of confidence that I could hear.
00:19:06And I wasn't quite sure if you were ever going to really get there with that confidence.
00:19:10You know, and maybe that's what your journey is here,
00:19:14is getting it so that you're clicked in on the first verse right away.
00:19:18You know what I mean?
00:19:19Yeah, definitely.
00:19:20It's hard.
00:19:21It's a skill that takes a while to master.
00:19:22Especially in a TV studio, you know, in front of all these people.
00:19:25It's not an easy skill.
00:19:26Because your voice is crazy good.
00:19:28I would love to work with you.
00:19:30Well, thank you for continuing to interrupt, Adam.
00:19:32But you didn't actually turn your chair, so...
00:19:34I did!
00:19:35Yeah, you did.
00:19:36I did, uh-huh.
00:19:37Yeah, right at the end.
00:19:38And don't just fight me.
00:19:39You've got to fight Adam too.
00:19:40Oh, gosh damn it.
00:19:41Yeah.
00:19:42Well, I...
00:19:43I'm pitching too over here.
00:19:44Well, I just want to say that I don't think you're going to choose Adam.
00:19:47I think it would be weird.
00:19:48I think...
00:19:51I think Guy would be the obvious, safe choice.
00:19:55And I think you're ready now to take a risk and go to the next level.
00:20:01You know, Guy's been here for six years.
00:20:03He's almost a little bit institutionalised.
00:20:06Some people say that.
00:20:08I don't.
00:20:09But, um...
00:20:10So you've heard.
00:20:11Yeah.
00:20:12It's over to you.
00:20:14Thank you so much for turning.
00:20:17I have to go with my heart.
00:20:21And my heart says Guy Sebastian.
00:20:28I think I was ready for that.
00:20:32Oh, welcome.
00:20:33Welcome.
00:20:34That was awesome.
00:20:42Welcome.
00:20:43That was awesome.
00:20:47Thank you, fam.
00:20:49Can I say hi to mum and dad?
00:20:59Hello.
00:21:00Priscilla.
00:21:01Hello, family.
00:21:02Priscilla.
00:21:06I'm so proud of you.
00:21:10She killed it.
00:21:11She killed it.
00:21:12She absolutely smashed it.
00:21:14She did great.
00:21:15It's all well.
00:21:17Sorry, so did you turn at the very last minute?
00:21:19Ron was crazy.
00:21:20I was like, what?
00:21:21Yeah, I know.
00:21:22Yeah, it got me.
00:21:23I was like, what?
00:21:24I don't know.
00:21:25Oh, there she is.
00:21:26Yeah.
00:21:27Beautiful.
00:21:28Whee!
00:21:30I tried my best.
00:21:31I tried to leave no stone unturned.
00:21:35But it's really hard to go up against Guy.
00:21:37Particularly, you know, like a super fan.
00:21:42But that doesn't mean I'm going to give up.
00:21:45And I think Guy better watch his back.
00:21:48We'll see.
00:21:49We'll see.
00:21:50She might see another side to me as well.
00:21:55Watch me do it.
00:21:57I do like to win.
00:21:59It's not always a great character trait.
00:22:05You always want to win.
00:22:06No question about it.
00:22:07When you see an artist that you really love,
00:22:09you start to come off.
00:22:10And you start fighting harder and harder.
00:22:15Sometimes name-dropping helps.
00:22:17Guy's really good at name-dropping.
00:22:18Ed Sheeran.
00:22:19Jon Farnham.
00:22:20Thirsty Murk.
00:22:21John Mayer.
00:22:22Do you know who Delta Goodram is?
00:22:23Oh, yeah.
00:22:24We need a broom to, like, wipe up all of those names that he drops on stage.
00:22:27Watch me do it.
00:22:28The biggest competition?
00:22:29Probably Leigh-Anne.
00:22:30Watch me do it.
00:22:32She's got clout.
00:22:33You know, she's got big, iconic songs under her belt that we all know and love.
00:22:40When she wants someone, she goes in hard.
00:22:43She can give back as good as she gets.
00:22:56Kate brings the claws to a pitch.
00:22:57Watch me do it.
00:22:59She's not afraid of anybody up on that panel.
00:23:01She'll run you over if you're not careful.
00:23:03Watch me do it.
00:23:05Adam is incredibly persuasive.
00:23:08I think he really is a rock guy.
00:23:10And, of course, he's got the flex of being the front man of Queen.
00:23:14That makes him tough competition.
00:23:16It's been a while since an Aussie won The Voice.
00:23:19It needs to either go to me or Kate, preferably me.
00:23:25Do I look handsome?
00:23:26Sorry.
00:23:30I'm Don Rogers.
00:23:31I'm a crane operator from the Gold Coast.
00:23:37It was six months ago that I started to sing for the boys on a construction site one day.
00:23:41And now here I am on The Voice, and it's, yeah, it's mind-blowing.
00:23:47I always had music as an interest and a passion and a love.
00:23:50But coming from the family I come from,
00:23:53rugby league has been a really big part of our upbringing.
00:23:57Our father, Steve, was a rugby league player.
00:24:00My brother, Matt, and Dad are probably considered amongst the greatest Sharks players of all time.
00:24:06Hello.
00:24:07Oh my goodness, I see a familiar face.
00:24:10Matty Rogers.
00:24:11How you doing? Just here to support my brother.
00:24:13Oh my goodness, so I can see the family resemblance.
00:24:16Now, obviously, we all know who Matty Rogers is.
00:24:18One of the greatest footballers of all time.
00:24:20Yeah, he does alright.
00:24:21You played too?
00:24:22Yeah, I did, yeah.
00:24:23We played together at the Sharks in 94.
00:24:26Matt obviously went on with it, and I got a little bit distracted, if you like.
00:24:29A bit sidetracked?
00:24:30Yeah, yeah.
00:24:31And I'm sorry, I haven't met the rest of the family.
00:24:33What's your name?
00:24:34Jessie.
00:24:35Jessie, hi Jessie. What's your name?
00:24:37Moisey.
00:24:38Moisey, that's so cute.
00:24:40And you're here to support Dad, who's going to be singing today.
00:24:44Yeah, today's supposed to be school day, but we just came here.
00:24:47You've got to have a day off if your dad is singing on The Voice, right?
00:24:50Yeah.
00:24:52It wasn't until, I guess, I stopped playing football that I started to develop my music.
00:25:00The first time I sang in front of anybody else was terrifying.
00:25:06It does seem a little extreme to be starting singing six months ago and now to be here on The Voice.
00:25:15It's so new to be in front of people, and I do get nervous.
00:25:19Yeah, nerves definitely can affect my performance.
00:25:26You got this, brother.
00:25:29Yeah.
00:25:47I think this opportunity does represent me finding my own identity as Don the singer,
00:25:52instead of, you know, Don from the footballing family.
00:25:55It is probably the first time I've really done something that's a passion for myself.
00:26:00So, let's roll the dice.
00:26:09Let's go, Dongo.
00:26:26Let's go, Dongo.
00:26:27Let's go, Dongo.
00:26:53Yeah, come on.
00:26:57Yeah.
00:27:27I have a diamond ring and bandage for a thorn, ride till I can't no more,
00:27:33take my horse to the old town road, ride till I can't no more.
00:27:40Oh, mate.
00:27:43Oh, hi.
00:27:45Hey.
00:27:48Hello.
00:27:49Hello.
00:27:50Hi, how are you?
00:27:51Very good, mate.
00:27:52What's your name?
00:27:53I'm Don Rogers.
00:27:54I'm a 50-year-old train operator from the Gold Coast.
00:27:58Yeah, here we are.
00:28:01Don, thank God that you look the way you do
00:28:04because we've had such interesting voices on the show.
00:28:09Every time I turn around thinking,
00:28:11I think I know what this person's going to look like, I'm wrong.
00:28:14But you kind of look like what I thought you would.
00:28:17Thanks, Guy.
00:28:18And I mean that as a compliment.
00:28:19You've got such an interesting voice.
00:28:21Thanks.
00:28:22That's probably the reason, personally, I didn't turn.
00:28:24All I've got to go on is your voice
00:28:26and a few moments sounded a little out of breath and things like that.
00:28:29So our...
00:28:33You've got a famous brother.
00:28:35Is he your brother?
00:28:36Yeah, that's my brother.
00:28:37Is he another Rogers?
00:28:38Yeah, that's my brother.
00:28:40There you go.
00:28:41He's the one that encouraged me to pull the trigger on my singing
00:28:44and we only started singing six months ago.
00:28:46So to be standing on this stage with all these amazing artists
00:28:49is incredible.
00:28:51That's amazing.
00:28:52Why?
00:28:53What made you start six months ago?
00:28:54I just sang for the boys on a job site that I was working on one day
00:28:57and they encouraged me.
00:28:58They were like,
00:28:59man, what are you doing driving a crane?
00:29:01Get into your singing.
00:29:02I've started performing now,
00:29:04but obviously not stages as big as the voice.
00:29:06But yeah, I think nerves definitely played a little part tonight.
00:29:10Yeah, I feel like there's so much for you to expand on,
00:29:13which is not a bad thing.
00:29:15It's just that kept me from turning around.
00:29:17Was it intimidating?
00:29:18A little bit nerve-wracking backstage,
00:29:21but yeah, I'm just so excited to be here, you know,
00:29:23and be able to play for you all.
00:29:25It's a real privilege and an honour.
00:29:27Well, it looks like there's not just talent
00:29:30on one side of the brotherhood here.
00:29:32There's a whole other lot of talent over here.
00:29:35And I'm so glad you got to share it.
00:29:37Good on you, Matt, for encouraging him.
00:29:39Thanks, fella.
00:29:40And nice choice with the song.
00:29:42That was a very interesting choice, the Old Town Road.
00:29:44It wouldn't be the normal probably fit
00:29:46for what maybe the kind of artist that you necessarily listen to,
00:29:49but that's a nice surprise.
00:29:50Yeah, well, I sort of figured in that song
00:29:52comes straight out of the gate.
00:29:53Yeah, it does. Yeah.
00:29:54Highly entertaining.
00:29:55Good on you, Don.
00:29:56I appreciate it.
00:29:57Thanks so much.
00:29:58Thank you, Matt.
00:30:05Yeah, I was a little disappointed when the chairs didn't spin.
00:30:07Nerves maybe got a little bit of the better of me up there tonight.
00:30:10Hey.
00:30:12Hey, buddy.
00:30:13Hey, buddy.
00:30:14No.
00:30:15Oh.
00:30:16The nerves got me on here.
00:30:18I'm so proud of you.
00:30:20Yeah.
00:30:21Thanks, fella.
00:30:22It's the start, man.
00:30:23You know, just stand up there and do what you did, mate.
00:30:28Who knows?
00:30:29You know, I don't have a crystal ball,
00:30:30but I'll keep singing as best I can,
00:30:32and that's what it's all about, you know, creating some memories.
00:30:37Next...
00:30:38There was a near-death experience
00:30:39working in the mines in central Queensland.
00:30:41Yeah, it was probably one of the scariest moments of my life.
00:30:44Yeah.
00:30:46A miner digs deep.
00:30:49Thankfully, it offered me a second chance at life.
00:30:51But will his song turn a chair?
00:30:53Oh, my God.
00:30:54Oh, my God.
00:31:10Music, to me, is everything.
00:31:12It's a part of everything.
00:31:13It's become my life.
00:31:16Hi, my name's Brad Butcher.
00:31:18I'm 41 years old, and I'm from central Queensland.
00:31:25I used to work in the mines.
00:31:27It can be a very dangerous place to work.
00:31:30I was once involved in a pretty unreal accident.
00:31:34I was working on a 200-tonne crane.
00:31:37It toppled over, and I was underneath it.
00:31:40Yeah.
00:31:42I was metres away from death,
00:31:44and it was just...
00:31:46You know, it wasn't my time.
00:31:47And thankfully, it offered me a second chance at life
00:31:50and to pursue the things that I wanted to do,
00:31:52and music was that.
00:31:55When I sing, I think it's the one time
00:31:58you really let everything else go, you know?
00:32:00It's a really nice, happy place.
00:32:02The song I'm singing for my blind audition
00:32:04is I'm On Fire by Bruce Springsteen.
00:32:06There's a bit of pressure around singing a Bruce Springsteen song
00:32:09because most people know it.
00:32:11So I really hope the nerves don't get the better of me.
00:32:24Ah.
00:32:34Hey, little girl, is your daddy home with any boys?
00:32:39All alone now
00:32:42What a great song.
00:32:43Got a bad desire
00:32:47Oh
00:32:49Tell me now, baby, is he good to you?
00:32:52Can he do to you the things that I do now?
00:32:57I can take you higher
00:33:02Oh, I'm on fire
00:33:06Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, baby, edgy and dull
00:33:10Cut a six-inch valley through the middle of my skull
00:33:16Yeah.
00:33:17It's now to wake up with the sheets soaking wet
00:33:21And a freight train running through the middle of my head
00:33:24Oh, yeah
00:33:26My desire
00:33:30Oh, I'm on fire
00:33:36Oh, I'm on fire
00:33:42Oh, I'm on fire
00:33:46Oh, I'm on fire
00:33:48Oh, I'm on fire
00:33:53Oh, I'm on fire
00:33:57Oh, I'm on fire
00:34:03Good choice.
00:34:05Yeah.
00:34:06That was beautiful. Wow.
00:34:09Oh, you can take a deep breath now.
00:34:12What's your name?
00:34:14Hello, my name is Brad Butcher, and I'm 41.
00:34:16I'm from Rockhampton.
00:34:18Hi, Brad.
00:34:22Oh, is this your family?
00:34:24Hi, family.
00:34:26These are my stepkids.
00:34:28This is Katie, Isla, and Hudson.
00:34:30Are you so proud of your dad?
00:34:32Yep.
00:34:33Oh, my God, you're going to make me cry.
00:34:34I literally wouldn't be on this stage without them.
00:34:36Oh, my God.
00:34:38Love that.
00:34:39That's so sweet.
00:34:40Have you been on stage like this?
00:34:42Is this something you do often?
00:34:44Yeah, I've been a performer for close to 20 years now,
00:34:46whether it be covers or originals.
00:34:48It's been a long road to get here, though.
00:34:50In my early 20s, I guess, there was a near-death experience
00:34:52working in the mines in central Queensland.
00:34:54Wow.
00:34:55And it sort of made me question what I wanted to do
00:34:57and whether I was happy with the things I was doing at that time.
00:35:00So it set me on this path to be a musician and a songwriter,
00:35:03and yeah, here we are.
00:35:07Your voice is so soothing.
00:35:09I really, really enjoyed, like, just...
00:35:12It seems so heartfelt.
00:35:14When you settled in, you just feel, like, right at home.
00:35:18And you have that kind of classic country rock and roll,
00:35:21like, earthy voice,
00:35:23and I would love to bring that out more.
00:35:26And you can tell that you just have a big heart,
00:35:28and I really, really enjoyed you.
00:35:33So you're Hudson, are you?
00:35:35Hudson, I've got a Hudson.
00:35:37She was named after your Hudson.
00:35:39No way!
00:35:40Absolutely.
00:35:41They're the same name.
00:35:42Yep.
00:35:43So what?
00:35:44Their dad is a big fan of yours, so...
00:35:45Oh, there you go.
00:35:46And me.
00:35:47LAUGHTER
00:35:49That was her motivation for filling out the application
00:35:52to get Brad on.
00:35:53She's like, I want to meet Guy Sebastian.
00:35:55Oh, there you go.
00:35:57She was desperate for a hug.
00:35:58Well...
00:35:59APPLAUSE
00:36:01It's great to meet you.
00:36:03Aw.
00:36:06We'll do our best.
00:36:07You guys can go back if you like.
00:36:09He's adorable.
00:36:10Nice to meet you, Hudson.
00:36:14Aw.
00:36:15She's so excited.
00:36:17So cute.
00:36:19Very sweet.
00:36:20Now, back to you, Brad.
00:36:22Let's get back to you.
00:36:23I very rarely turn that quickly, you know.
00:36:26I think it's a credit to you to make Coach's turn
00:36:30when it was just the verse.
00:36:32You know, you didn't even get to the chorus or anything.
00:36:35I only needed, to be honest, to hear, like, two lines
00:36:38to know I was listening to someone who had lived.
00:36:41It's weird, you can just tell that in your voice.
00:36:43It's a storytelling voice.
00:36:45And it seems like you're somebody who has come through something
00:36:49and realised that life is for living.
00:36:51And I'm excited about you.
00:36:53I would love you on Team Guy.
00:36:55CHEERING
00:36:58So you've been a touring musician for 20 years or so?
00:37:01I was about 23, 24 when I started playing or performing gigs.
00:37:04I actually think there's something about your presence,
00:37:08your essence, that is, and don't take this the wrong way,
00:37:12but your age gives you this gravitas, actually.
00:37:15It's that lived in, it's that beautiful, comfortable,
00:37:18worn leather shoe, you know.
00:37:20And I feel safe inside your shoe.
00:37:24LAUGHTER
00:37:26That's a first.
00:37:27I think there's something really special about what you do
00:37:30and I'd love to explore it more if you would care to join my team.
00:37:33CHEERING
00:37:35Your voice sounds so clear.
00:37:37It's so... I loved listening to you sing
00:37:40because it was like I could get every word.
00:37:42It was so simple.
00:37:44Storytelling.
00:37:45Direct.
00:37:46Yeah, and it was...
00:37:48Crispy is the best word I can put.
00:37:50You know, sometimes in the studio they crank up certain knobs
00:37:53and stuff to give singers that sound,
00:37:55but you actually just have it naturally.
00:37:57It's such a lovely intimacy that you create for the listener.
00:38:01Thank you very much.
00:38:02Really, really nice.
00:38:03I would love to work with you.
00:38:06Everyone pitched?
00:38:07Everyone happy?
00:38:08I would love you on my team.
00:38:10CHEERING
00:38:12Four chair turns.
00:38:13I'm also from Queensland, I should just point out.
00:38:16Originally, yeah.
00:38:17CHEERING
00:38:20Five, four, three, two, one.
00:38:26Leigh-Anne is here.
00:38:27Bye, bye.
00:38:28The girls are going to kill me, Guy,
00:38:30but I'm going to have to go with Leigh-Anne.
00:38:32Yes!
00:38:33CHEERING
00:38:34Wow!
00:38:36Yes!
00:38:37CHEERING
00:38:39I'm so excited.
00:38:41It's so nice to meet you.
00:38:43Oh, yes.
00:38:46Yes!
00:38:48Good to meet you.
00:38:53I think that was kind of a done deal from the start, right?
00:38:56It felt great.
00:38:57I didn't pitch that hard because I was like...
00:38:59Then he said the girls were fans.
00:39:01I thought I was a shoo-in.
00:39:02Yeah, that's true.
00:39:03And they named one of their kids after your kid.
00:39:05I know.
00:39:06I got a bit kind of relaxed with that.
00:39:08Never relax.
00:39:10Hi, family!
00:39:12Yeah, the girls are going to kick me for that one
00:39:15for not choosing Guy,
00:39:16but I had to go with my gut.
00:39:17And I think my genre,
00:39:19being that singer-songwriter, alternate country world,
00:39:22I think Leigh-Anne's the pick for me.
00:39:24So I'm really excited to see what we can do.
00:39:26You're so sweet.
00:39:27You're so proud of him.
00:39:28Tears in your eyes.
00:39:29You did good.
00:39:30Oh, my gosh.
00:39:31You did.
00:39:32I even held back on a joke.
00:39:33I was going to say,
00:39:34Brad Butcher, you carved that up.
00:39:35But I was like, no need.
00:39:37No need.
00:39:38The kids are fans.
00:39:39That would have clinched it, definitely.
00:39:40Maybe that would have done it.
00:39:41Keep those puns coming.
00:39:42Yeah.
00:39:44I'm excited to explore the stories
00:39:46that we want to tell together
00:39:47because I think he's really got that kind of
00:39:49rich storytelling soul.
00:39:51I'm all about telling a great story.
00:39:53I have been my whole career.
00:39:54And so to have people on my team
00:39:56that are able to kind of dig into a great story,
00:40:00I think is what is going to be really fun for me.
00:40:04Next,
00:40:06a divorced dance mom
00:40:08shocks everyone.
00:40:10Oh, my God.
00:40:12Are you prepared?
00:40:13Just strap yourself in.
00:40:14And later,
00:40:16I'm so used to singing on camera.
00:40:18I have never sung on a stage.
00:40:20It's terrifying.
00:40:21Time is up.
00:40:23I feel like those red chairs are starting to haunt me.
00:40:27For a TikTok influencer,
00:40:29What was that?
00:40:30I don't know.
00:40:31I'm not really sure.
00:40:32I'm a nervous wreck.
00:40:43You have to remember your motto.
00:40:45Don't fall up the stairs.
00:40:49Living the hell out of luck.
00:40:50There we go.
00:40:52Okay, my name is Chantelle Fleming,
00:40:54but everybody knows me as Shaunie.
00:40:56What's on your shirt?
00:40:57Yes, dreams don't have deadlines.
00:40:59So dreams don't have deadlines
00:41:01because I'm living the hell out of life.
00:41:04I started ballet at 45.
00:41:06Like, seriously, why not?
00:41:08I've done tap and I've done hip-hop
00:41:10and I've done jazz.
00:41:12It's all about just getting there and give it a go.
00:41:15This is what I want to do.
00:41:16I'm going to do it.
00:41:20Everybody has that moment
00:41:22when you wake up one morning
00:41:24and you think, well, that's not what I had planned.
00:41:29My marriage was no longer.
00:41:33I was not living behind somebody anymore
00:41:38and helping them achieve their goals.
00:41:42I woke up one day and I mattered.
00:41:46Like, I had purpose and I had resolve
00:41:49and it was like, okay, all right,
00:41:51well, let's just, let's do this.
00:41:54The song I'm singing today is Born This Way, Lady Gaga.
00:41:59I thought it would showcase my personality.
00:42:02I am a self-taught, karaoke-bred,
00:42:07pub-singing performer.
00:42:11I'm not a singing kettle.
00:42:13I don't do all of the runs and everything else.
00:42:15It's very raw.
00:42:16I like to think I'm very real.
00:42:18You're going away!
00:42:23Are you prepared?
00:42:24Like, just strap yourself in.
00:42:25Buckle up.
00:42:32Okay.
00:42:41I'm beautiful in my way
00:42:45So God makes no mistakes
00:42:49I'm on the right track, baby
00:42:53I was born this way
00:42:59My mama told me when I was young
00:43:02We're up on superstars
00:43:07Shrug my hair and put my lipstick on
00:43:10In the glass of bourbon twine
00:43:14There's nothing wrong with loving who you are
00:43:17Cause he makes you perfect, baby
00:43:22Hold your head up, girl, and you'll go far
00:43:26Listen to me when I say
00:43:29I'm beautiful in my way
00:43:31So God makes no mistakes
00:43:33I'm on the right track, baby
00:43:35I was born this way
00:43:37Don't hide yourself in regret
00:43:39Love yourself when you're set
00:43:41I'm on the right track, baby
00:43:43I was born this way
00:43:49Baby, I was born this way
00:43:52Born this way
00:43:56I was on the right track, baby
00:43:58I was born this way
00:44:09Hello. Welcome.
00:44:10Hello.
00:44:11What's your name?
00:44:12My name is Shani.
00:44:13I'm 51 and I'm from the affirmative capital of the world.
00:44:16Yes!
00:44:18Oh, yes.
00:44:21I love it.
00:44:22Look, that was so fun to listen to.
00:44:24Is there anything written on your shirt?
00:44:26What is that?
00:44:27DDHD.
00:44:28Dreams.
00:44:29Oh, yes.
00:44:30I love that.
00:44:31I'm living the hell out of life right now.
00:44:33So, yes, this is me.
00:44:34Hello.
00:44:36That's wonderful.
00:44:38So what do you get up to when you're not singing?
00:44:41I'm a wearer of many hats.
00:44:43I'm the very proud dance mum of my baby girl over there.
00:44:46Oh, wow.
00:44:49I do some MC work.
00:44:50I do some hosting work.
00:44:53Yeah, I'm a menace of life.
00:44:56That's brilliant.
00:44:57I love your energy.
00:44:58I think it's fantastic.
00:45:00We could tell you had a lot of exuberance.
00:45:02But with the song, the beginning is so exposed
00:45:07and you need to really come out swinging at the very, very top
00:45:11and I felt that you just weren't quite sitting in the middle of the note.
00:45:14That's why I didn't turn, but I really enjoyed it.
00:45:18Thank you so much.
00:45:21Good song choice.
00:45:23Really good.
00:45:24I mean, I was like floating over my button because I live for this song.
00:45:27It's got such a great message.
00:45:29It's got great positivity and I could tell you love it.
00:45:32Absolutely.
00:45:33I could feel that.
00:45:34Yes.
00:45:35So it was hard to resist.
00:45:36It was very hard to resist, but I have something very specific in mind
00:45:39that I'm looking for and this didn't quite fit my fantasy today,
00:45:42but you really took me back to like...
00:45:44I can be your fantasy another day.
00:45:46Yes.
00:45:51You're going to be my fantasy every day.
00:45:53Dance mama.
00:45:54But thank you for coming out here and filling our hearts with song.
00:45:58You're welcome.
00:46:02What a ray of sunshine you are.
00:46:04You've obviously got a bit of a crew of support over there.
00:46:07Oh, yeah.
00:46:08That's the Menace Pack.
00:46:09Okay.
00:46:10They are living the hell out of life.
00:46:12Well, that's how it should be lived.
00:46:14It's infectious.
00:46:15I've caught it in this very short time.
00:46:17So thank you to all of you.
00:46:18You're very welcome.
00:46:19But dance mom I heard.
00:46:21So talk me through that.
00:46:23You've come all dressed up as a dancer.
00:46:25What's your name?
00:46:26Holly.
00:46:27Holly.
00:46:28Is she a good dance mom?
00:46:29She's really good.
00:46:30She's good.
00:46:31Do you dance too?
00:46:32Yeah.
00:46:33Should we see some moves from mom and daughter just to get it going?
00:46:37Oh, yes.
00:46:40Hi.
00:46:43Should we give them a beat?
00:46:44Give them a beat.
00:47:06Can I just say I am so grateful.
00:47:08Man, nothing but gratitude.
00:47:10So, yeah.
00:47:11Have fun, peeps.
00:47:14Nice to meet you.
00:47:15Thank you so much.
00:47:20Oh, my God.
00:47:22I tripped down the stairs.
00:47:29That's how it's done.
00:47:31Okay.
00:47:32Good catch.
00:47:33Good catch.
00:47:41You did it.
00:47:42You did it.
00:47:45That was almost a crutches moment.
00:47:47I was like, oh, my God.
00:47:49I'm about to watch someone break their leg.
00:47:51I mean, that was going to go pear-shaped.
00:47:53She recovered.
00:47:54She recovered.
00:47:55What a great attitude.
00:47:56Oh, my God.
00:47:59Next.
00:48:00This is a game changer for me.
00:48:01Absolutely.
00:48:02A devoted youth worker wows Adam with his sense of style.
00:48:07You're wearing Crocs.
00:48:08Oh, yeah.
00:48:09Crocs.
00:48:10Yes.
00:48:11Got to croc and roll, guys.
00:48:12Croc and roll.
00:48:13Before bringing out the fighter in Kate.
00:48:16I would try and find that world for you.
00:48:18I feel like I would not want to make you a clone of Post Malone.
00:48:23I think...
00:48:24Spicing up.
00:48:25You should be your own self.
00:48:44Adam, show us your shoes.
00:48:48Oh, they're like this.
00:48:52Are you blushing?
00:48:53I'm showing my ankle.
00:48:56I think my heels might be bigger.
00:48:57Really?
00:48:58Than those?
00:49:00I don't know how you do that.
00:49:01I think my heels are taller than yours.
00:49:03Yeah, I think so.
00:49:04I'm not joking.
00:49:05This is genuinely the first year ever that I've worn heels.
00:49:09Like, I thought that was a big deal, right?
00:49:13And then I come and I see Leigh-Anne and Adam's shoes.
00:49:16I'm like...
00:49:17This isn't even that high.
00:49:18This is just like a hiking boot, really.
00:49:19Yeah.
00:49:20That's a hiking boot for you?
00:49:21Yes.
00:49:22I think they're also work-safe boots.
00:49:24Yeah, yeah.
00:49:25They're like fancy blundstones.
00:49:27Yes.
00:49:30Finally being here at The Voice is literally a dream come true.
00:49:35I remember watching this show when I was a kid
00:49:37and just thinking that it's not the sort of thing
00:49:39I could ever actually get onto or experience.
00:49:47Growing up, I was a bit of a loose sort of feral child, really.
00:49:50As a teen, I didn't really know any better.
00:49:52I started going down a pretty bad path.
00:49:56I didn't always have the best role models,
00:49:58had some not-so-great father figures in my life.
00:50:06One of the really major things that happened
00:50:08was I was part of a music workshop
00:50:10that came through my high school
00:50:12and it was the first time I was able to discover
00:50:15that I had an ability for singing
00:50:17and it enabled me to sort of build my confidence over those years
00:50:21and I became a mentor in the same music programme that saved me.
00:50:29Meeting Jenna definitely gave me a safe space
00:50:33and I think she's just always loved me for me.
00:50:38She's my biggest number one fan.
00:50:40I love her so much.
00:50:42And somehow she wrangled herself, classic Jenna,
00:50:45into a position where she's now on the show as well.
00:50:48So you're both auditioning today?
00:50:50Yes.
00:50:51It's always been my dream to audition.
00:50:53I love singing.
00:50:54Jenna's an incredible singer as well
00:50:56and I've just always supported everything that she wants to do.
00:50:58So I've just always wanted to encourage her
00:51:00to come along and be part of it as well.
00:51:02And now we're here.
00:51:04So here's the weird thing, right?
00:51:06So if you go first, York,
00:51:08Jenna, you're not going to know what happens
00:51:10because you'll still be backstage.
00:51:12No!
00:51:13Well, because I'm his supporter.
00:51:15I'm one of his biggest supporters.
00:51:17No offence, you guys. Biggest fan.
00:51:19And I want to see the actual performance
00:51:21but I've duped myself because I'm performing too
00:51:23so I have to stay backstage.
00:51:31This is a game changer for me, absolutely.
00:51:37If I can come out here and make an impact
00:51:40that would just be such an inspiration.
00:51:43Three, two, one, go on.
00:51:56Go Yorkie!
00:51:58Go Yorkie!
00:52:00Woohoo!
00:52:01Yeah, yeah.
00:52:06Go Yorkie!
00:52:36Go Yorkie!
00:53:03Go Yorkie!
00:53:06Go Yorkie!
00:53:21Yeah, York!
00:53:31Yeah, Yorkie!
00:53:33Yeah, York!
00:53:35Oh my God!
00:53:39Hey man, how are you?
00:53:41I'm good, how are you guys?
00:53:43My name's York, I'm 29
00:53:45and I'm from Port Pirie, South Australia.
00:53:47Nice.
00:53:48I live here in Sydney right now.
00:53:50I love your haircut, that's wild.
00:53:52I love yours too.
00:53:54And you're wearing Crocs!
00:53:55Oh yeah, yeah, Crocs.
00:53:56Yes!
00:53:57We've got to croc and roll, guys.
00:53:58Croc and roll!
00:53:59We've got to croc and roll.
00:54:00I mean, I know, there's a thunderstorm outside
00:54:02so, you know, it's appropriate.
00:54:03You didn't want to get your shoes wet.
00:54:04I didn't want to back in as well.
00:54:05Exactly, exactly.
00:54:07Croc and roll!
00:54:09Oh no, I can't believe you said that.
00:54:11I know I didn't turn my chair.
00:54:12It was so hard, I was so close so many times
00:54:14because I loved the tone of your voice.
00:54:16But it started feeling like
00:54:18it was an effort to get there.
00:54:21But getting to meet you right now,
00:54:23you are such a nice guy.
00:54:25I really like this personality.
00:54:27I think you are charming and warm
00:54:29and colourful, energy.
00:54:31I'm rooting for you.
00:54:32Thanks, man.
00:54:33Thanks, man.
00:54:36I love the rasp in your voice.
00:54:37Like, it's just, it's great.
00:54:39The tone of your voice is really cool.
00:54:41There were some pitchy moments for me
00:54:43that I think kept me from turning around.
00:54:45But there's definitely great talent.
00:54:47And do you get on stage very often?
00:54:49I mean, I sort of busk around
00:54:51and I move with my partner up to New South Wales
00:54:53to keep pursuing and take it to the next level.
00:54:55Well, this is the next level, so I'm so happy.
00:54:57This is definitely the next level.
00:54:59This is, whoa, going on right now.
00:55:01I'm so happy you're here, yeah.
00:55:03Thank you so much.
00:55:04York, do you know what I love about that?
00:55:06It was so interesting that it took me a second
00:55:08to absorb the beauty in it.
00:55:10But I turned because I want to take a risk
00:55:12on something that I think is unique.
00:55:14And for me, you've got this real humility
00:55:17and, like, groundedness about you.
00:55:19And you remind me a little bit about
00:55:20what makes Post Malone special,
00:55:22beyond just being kind of the nicest guy in the world.
00:55:24He's so good.
00:55:25He's also just so raw and honest.
00:55:28But it's teamed with really kind of universally
00:55:32understandable songs that are hooky as hell.
00:55:35I would try and find that world for you
00:55:37to make it something that doesn't get lost
00:55:39in a mix of something.
00:55:41I feel like I would not want to make you
00:55:43a clone of Post Malone.
00:55:45I think you should be your own...
00:55:48Ooh.
00:55:49...self.
00:55:50I like it.
00:55:51Kate's really competitive, by the way.
00:55:53So, you know, you have a...
00:55:54Yeah?
00:55:55Yeah.
00:55:56Spicing up.
00:55:57I think as a storyteller in you,
00:56:00your vocal tone is really special
00:56:03and it's really emotive.
00:56:05Like, you can convey a whole range of emotions with it.
00:56:07So what I will do with you when we work together is...
00:56:12Ooh, that confidence.
00:56:14Something that I think would be really exciting
00:56:16is to take songs that you love,
00:56:19strip things back and reinvent songs
00:56:22through the lens of you and your persona.
00:56:26I just want to hear more.
00:56:28I just want to hear you sing something else.
00:56:29Thank you so much.
00:56:31Thank you, Kate.
00:56:32Well, you're fantastic, York.
00:56:35And it's decision time.
00:56:39This is a super incredible opportunity, obviously.
00:56:42So good to meet you guys.
00:56:47Oh, my God.
00:56:48This is...
00:56:51Who should I go with?
00:56:54Who should it be?
00:56:56I don't know.
00:57:04Guy, thank you so much.
00:57:06I think I have to go with Kate, though.
00:57:08Yay!
00:57:11Well done. You guys have been great.
00:57:13Thank you so much.
00:57:14Thank you so much.
00:57:15That was brilliant.
00:57:16Totally nailed it.
00:57:17Awesome. Awesome job.
00:57:19Well done, York.
00:57:20Great stuff.
00:57:27He seems like a lot of fun.
00:57:28Yeah.
00:57:29Yeah, I think so.
00:57:30Sorry about that guy.
00:57:31But, you know, it's got to be done.
00:57:33Oh, yeah.
00:57:34Oh, yeah.
00:57:37Good luck, baby.
00:57:39I love you.
00:57:40Good luck.
00:57:41Love you.
00:57:42Let's get you to your friends and family
00:57:43so you can support Jennifer inside of sometimes.
00:57:49You did it.
00:57:51She's back there. She's got no idea.
00:57:54Fingers crossed for Jenna.
00:58:02Honestly, I'm so used to singing on camera,
00:58:04but I have never sung on stage.
00:58:07It's terrifying.
00:58:10I'm Jenna,
00:58:11and I'm known as Jenna with the pink on TikTok.
00:58:21When I first started TikTok,
00:58:22I would have young girls message me
00:58:24almost on a daily basis
00:58:25asking me questions about friendships
00:58:27and body image issues,
00:58:28and I don't know,
00:58:29I just felt this, like,
00:58:30calling inside of me to help them in some way,
00:58:33and I really just started making videos
00:58:35talking about periods on the internet
00:58:37and honestly went crazy viral
00:58:39and have not looked back since.
00:58:47I can't say I've ever sung professionally,
00:58:49and this is a big song I'm singing.
00:58:52It just gives me butterflies to even think about it.
00:58:56I feel like those red chairs are starting to haunt me.
00:59:01The fact that they're going to be right there,
00:59:03I'm not going to be able to see them,
00:59:04they're not going to be able to see me.
00:59:10And I have to prove it with my voice
00:59:12to get them to turn.
00:59:14Oh, my God.
00:59:15What was that?
00:59:16I don't know, I'm not really sure.
00:59:17I'm a nervous wreck.
00:59:33If I don't turn a chair,
00:59:34it would really suck.
00:59:35This is a big deal,
00:59:37and I have to prove it.
00:59:38If I don't turn a chair,
00:59:40it would really suck.
00:59:41This is a big deal,
00:59:42and I have to prove it.
00:59:44I'm not just a TikToker,
00:59:45I can sing.
00:59:50I'm a nervous wreck.
00:59:59What was that?
01:00:00I'm not really sure.
01:00:04Look at her, she's got you.
01:00:08Oh, I love this song so much.
01:00:38Oh, my God.
01:01:08I see the way you're acting like somebody else
01:01:13Getting me frustrated
01:01:16At lives like this
01:01:18You and your food
01:01:20And your crew
01:01:21And your brief
01:01:22And you take what you get
01:01:24And you turn it into
01:01:27Honesty
01:01:28And promise me
01:01:29I'm never going to find you
01:01:32Faking
01:01:34Oh, no
01:01:39Yes, yes, yes, yes.
01:01:45Hi.
01:01:46Hi.
01:01:47That was great.
01:01:48Oh, my goodness.
01:01:49Four chairs.
01:01:52Wow.
01:01:55What?
01:01:56Hi.
01:01:57Hi.
01:01:58I believe you guys maybe just met my boyfriend.
01:02:00Don't tell me you're from Port Pirie as well.
01:02:02Don't talk about me.
01:02:03What's the relationship here?
01:02:05Okay, so I'm Jenna.
01:02:07I'm 26.
01:02:08And this is my boyfriend.
01:02:10No way.
01:02:12Oh, my gosh.
01:02:14That's incredible.
01:02:15And yeah, I can't believe I'm here right now.
01:02:17Thank you guys so much for turning.
01:02:23So, did you guys meet through music?
01:02:25York used to be like a salesman.
01:02:27And he was like, in shopping centres,
01:02:29I don't know if you guys know,
01:02:30but in shopping centres,
01:02:31there's sometimes people that bug you
01:02:33to buy charity from them.
01:02:35That was York.
01:02:36He was actually really good at it.
01:02:38I could see him being great at that.
01:02:40So, I was walking past, he says,
01:02:41can I ask you a question?
01:02:43And I sing back to him,
01:02:45no, you can't.
01:02:49So, our first meeting ever was we sung to each other,
01:02:52which is a little bit cute.
01:02:55Amazing story.
01:02:56How long have you been together?
01:02:58We've been together six years, I think.
01:03:00Oh, wow.
01:03:01That's a long time.
01:03:02And I don't know,
01:03:03but I'm getting a little bit impatient.
01:03:06Hello.
01:03:07So, enough about him.
01:03:09Enough about him.
01:03:10Look, that was really sweet.
01:03:12I think your voice has a really interesting,
01:03:15ethereal, pure quality to it, which I love.
01:03:18But the thing I loved the most was
01:03:20how you totally reinvented that song.
01:03:23I thought I was sick of that song
01:03:25till I heard your version.
01:03:26Oh, my gosh, Kate, thank you.
01:03:28That means a lot, thank you.
01:03:29Honestly, you took the melody
01:03:31some really interesting places as well.
01:03:33You really made that song your own.
01:03:35That was him.
01:03:36Honestly, he worked on that song with me.
01:03:38You should have seen us in the kitchen,
01:03:40him and me, every single day,
01:03:41singing our songs, getting ready for this.
01:03:43Aww.
01:03:44And, yeah, he was my surrogate coach before being here.
01:03:47Thanks, baby.
01:03:48I turn four chairs, so thanks, baby.
01:03:52I think the three of us, we could make a dream team.
01:03:55Ooh.
01:03:56I mean, your boyfriend's already on my team,
01:03:59so it's just...
01:04:00What?
01:04:02It'll just be more convenient.
01:04:04No.
01:04:05Like, you can just come in together, you know?
01:04:07York, do you think maybe you helped her a bit too much
01:04:10now that you guys are competing?
01:04:12Way too much.
01:04:13Regretting it big time.
01:04:14You stitched yourself up, York.
01:04:16Would you say you're a bit of a rock chick,
01:04:19a little bit of a rebel, or just...?
01:04:21I feel like I've got a little bit of that within me,
01:04:24but I'm like...
01:04:25I make TikTok videos, right?
01:04:27Yeah.
01:04:28And my fans are young girls,
01:04:30so can I try and be a good role model?
01:04:32Yes.
01:04:35But, guy, I feel like the music might bring out
01:04:37a little bit of the sass in me,
01:04:39so I think I've got a little rock chick that's ready to come out.
01:04:42That makes total sense.
01:04:44Your voice is really beautiful.
01:04:48And the added beautiful layer
01:04:51is that you've got such a great message
01:04:54to your followers and your fans, you know?
01:04:56Like, it's such a positive message,
01:04:58and that's a gift.
01:04:59That's really cool.
01:05:00I would love you on Teen God.
01:05:02I think you're fantastic.
01:05:03I love that.
01:05:04Thanks, guy.
01:05:06Wow.
01:05:07Hey, that was very cool.
01:05:08Thank you, Adam.
01:05:09I think the element of surprise
01:05:11is really important on a show like this,
01:05:13because we hear a lot of covers,
01:05:15and it's really common for people
01:05:17to start imitating the original singer.
01:05:19But what was so brilliant, obviously,
01:05:21is that you did that in your own way,
01:05:23and it made me lean in and listen to the words,
01:05:25and your voice has such an immediacy to it.
01:05:28It made me feel like I was listening
01:05:30to something recorded,
01:05:31which is a great compliment.
01:05:33You know, it felt like you were in my earbuds,
01:05:35which I really love.
01:05:36And that's not an easy thing to do,
01:05:38especially in a live setting,
01:05:39so I would love to work with you.
01:05:41Yeah.
01:05:42I loved it.
01:05:43Thank you, Adam.
01:05:44That's amazing feedback.
01:05:45Thank you so much.
01:05:47I loved listening to you,
01:05:49and what made me turn around
01:05:50was some of the runs at the end.
01:05:52Like, you could really start to hear you come out,
01:05:54and there were some really interesting melody choices,
01:05:56and when that song started,
01:05:58and it wasn't up-tempo,
01:05:59I was like, oh, that's rad.
01:06:01Like, that's super cool.
01:06:02I love doing that.
01:06:03I'm kind of one of those people,
01:06:04I've covered a lot of material
01:06:05in my 30 years of being in this business,
01:06:07and you're always looking for the angle
01:06:09to make it your own.
01:06:10You seem to have a really good idea
01:06:12of who you are and what you want to say,
01:06:14and I do see those positive messages
01:06:17like blending over into the music you want to create.
01:06:21Definitely, yeah.
01:06:22And I would love to have you on Team Leanne.
01:06:23Yeah.
01:06:25Amazing feedback.
01:06:28Four chair team.
01:06:30This is intense, guys.
01:06:31Honestly, I wasn't even sure that I'd turn one chair,
01:06:35so you guys, what do you think?
01:06:39I don't know.
01:06:40Team Kate.
01:06:41Team Kate.
01:06:42Just saying.
01:06:48Yeah, thanks.
01:06:51This...
01:06:55No.
01:07:14Four chair team.
01:07:16Yeah.
01:07:17This is intense, guys.
01:07:18Honestly, you guys, what do you think?
01:07:21I don't know.
01:07:22They're all so good.
01:07:25I would love to work with you.
01:07:27I would love to have you on Team Leanne.
01:07:28Team Kate.
01:07:29Team Kate.
01:07:30Just saying.
01:07:31Let me help.
01:07:32You don't need much.
01:07:39Okay, there's a few really important things here.
01:07:42I love the idea of family.
01:07:44My family is my everything to me,
01:07:46and I just want to say...
01:07:51Kate, let's make a family happen.
01:07:53Let's do it, Kate.
01:07:55I want to be with you all.
01:07:59What is her favourite name?
01:08:01Thank you so much.
01:08:03I love you.
01:08:04Thank you, Leanne.
01:08:06Oh, look at her.
01:08:08Oh, my God, I just love you so much.
01:08:10So sweet.
01:08:12So good, both of you.
01:08:14Congratulations.
01:08:15Thank you, Leanne.
01:08:20That was a good one.
01:08:21Yeah.
01:08:22She's great.
01:08:23She's good.
01:08:24She's polished.
01:08:25I love their love.
01:08:26They're so sweet together.
01:08:27Yeah.
01:08:28And they so, like, fit with each other.
01:08:30You know, you just see two people who totally fit together.
01:08:32Yeah.
01:08:33Hello.
01:08:36Can you believe it?
01:08:37Four chairs.
01:08:38Four chairs?
01:08:39How many did you send?
01:08:41Two.
01:08:42What?
01:08:43What?
01:08:45You literally did it.
01:08:47You're going to ruin my eyeliner.
01:08:49Oh, it should be so bright.
01:08:51You were amazing.
01:08:52You were amazing.
01:08:53Was I?
01:08:54Yeah.
01:08:55I don't even know.
01:08:56Yeah, you were.
01:08:57What?
01:08:58You were.
01:08:59And he watched you.
01:09:00He watched you.
01:09:01I chose Kate.
01:09:02I didn't know who to pick.
01:09:03I don't know who to pick.
01:09:04I felt too overwhelmed.
01:09:05So we're both on Kate.
01:09:06I think we're both on Kate.
01:09:07I love Kate, though.
01:09:08Her voice is incredible.
01:09:09Team Kate.
01:09:10Team Kate.
01:09:11Team Kate.
01:09:12Team Kate.
01:09:13It's like an epic war.
01:09:14Yeah, baby.
01:09:15I'm totally thrilled about it.
01:09:16I just couldn't stand losing to Guy again or to Adam.
01:09:22I just couldn't hack it.
01:09:25And girlfriend, boyfriend, they both sing.
01:09:27They're both absolutely lovely.
01:09:30I think that's amazing.
01:09:31Like, what are the chances?
01:09:33I guess, yeah, the only issue being that you can only have one in the grand final.
01:09:38So, you know, I might have to do some relationship counselling.
01:09:43As week one of the blind auditions wraps up, Jenna becomes the fourth artist to join Kate's
01:09:51team, which means Kate has eight places left to fill.
01:09:55Guy's team has five members, Adam has four artists on his team, while Leanne has three,
01:10:01leaving her with nine spots still available.
01:10:04And there's much more to come as the blinds continue.
01:10:09It's a battle royale as the artists fight to impress.
01:10:12I'm a professional wrestler.
01:10:14I'm a karate world champion.
01:10:16The gloves and the shoes come off.
01:10:21I threw my shoe at you.
01:10:23My shoe is in the ring too.
01:10:25What is happening?
01:10:26You have to decide whether you'd like a coach that's a follower or a leader.
01:10:29More amazing artists.
01:10:34That was insane.
01:10:36Felt like I was listening to an angel.
01:10:38What you did was even more powerful than you realised.
01:10:40Your voice gave me goosebumps everywhere.
01:10:44I have never heard a vocal tone like that in my life.
01:10:48I just completely lost my shit over here.
01:10:50Have the coaches clamouring and pitching their hearts out.
01:10:56You're the voice that I've been looking for on my team.
01:10:58I need you.
01:10:59Come on, it's a no brainer.
01:11:00You belong on my team.
01:11:02I'm viciously hungry to have you on my team.
01:11:05Please, let's have fun.
01:11:08Using every weapon at their disposal.
01:11:11I'm so badly wanting to hit this Leanne block guy.
01:11:14Don't you dare do it.
01:11:15Oh, damn.
01:11:16I'm just joking.
01:11:17I have no respect.
01:11:18You guys have Bastion?
01:11:20And then I've got to sing with Queen.
01:11:24You got to sing with Queen?
01:11:26I never heard that before.
01:11:30Leanne's just blocked guy.
01:11:32Oh, shit.
01:11:33To build the teams of their dreams.
01:11:37You had me in the palm of your hand.
01:11:39That is like a perfect voice.
01:11:41You have everything.
01:11:48I think this is the best talent we've ever had on The Voice.
01:11:50The stakes are getting higher with every turn.
01:11:55I think you could win this whole competition.
01:12:07The Voice
