00:00:00Welcome, Australia, to another exhilarating night of the Voice Battle Arena.
00:00:08Last time, we witnessed our first batch of vocal titans singing for their survival,
00:00:14with only the winners advancing to the knockouts.
00:00:17Tonight, we have more incredible performances, jaw-dropping saves
00:00:22and more gut-wrenching decisions for our coaches.
00:00:26So let's get ready to rumble.
00:00:28This is Round 2 of the Voice Battles.
00:00:35Previously on The Voice...
00:00:38Let the battle commence.
00:00:41Artists went head to head.
00:00:46That was next level.
00:00:47That was amazing.
00:00:49You will be a professional singer.
00:00:51That's a hard one to call.
00:00:52I think that you were some of the best voices in the competition, for sure.
00:00:55To secure their spot on their coach's team.
00:00:58The person I'm going to take to the knockouts is Jayden.
00:01:02That artist is you, Shannon.
00:01:04It's Cookie.
00:01:06Annie Jones.
00:01:08It's Beau.
00:01:09Amber.
00:01:11You, Roland.
00:01:13And one artist was given a second chance.
00:01:21It's four saves.
00:01:25As coaches, we have multiple saves,
00:01:27which means you now have to pitch,
00:01:29and Jayden will get to choose.
00:01:31Jayden, who is it going to be?
00:01:34Come home. Come home.
00:01:36I'm going to stick with Team Guy.
00:01:41I knew you were the one coach there.
00:01:45Tonight...
00:01:47It's happening.
00:01:4816 new artists will face off.
00:01:54In the epic battles arena.
00:02:00There's a 50-50 chance that I'll go home at the end of the battles.
00:02:04No one is safe.
00:02:05The pressure is on.
00:02:07I've got the greatest opportunity at my feet.
00:02:10I have to win this battle.
00:02:12This means everything to me.
00:02:14I'm going to do everything I can to get those gloves on
00:02:16and come out swimming.
00:02:18We want to win.
00:02:19And we will.
00:02:20I'm going to really fight for my place in this competition.
00:02:27Our coaches will face difficult choices.
00:02:30I think Leanne's got a really tough job.
00:02:33You're very different, and this is really hard for me.
00:02:35I've got to be honest, this is hell.
00:02:37For me, it's an impossible choice.
00:02:40I've got to make a decision.
00:02:42As they battle to secure the best artists for their teams.
00:02:46I've got 12 incredible artists on my team.
00:02:49But I need to get that down to seven.
00:02:52It will be a night of shocks.
00:02:55And surprises.
00:02:57I was not expecting that.
00:03:04And leading the charge, it's our superstar coaches.
00:03:07Guy Sebastian.
00:03:11Leanne Rimes.
00:03:15Kate Miller-Highking.
00:03:20And Adam Lambert.
00:03:26All looking gorgeous.
00:03:28Guy, you're looking Gucci.
00:03:31Is it obvious?
00:03:32Very nice.
00:03:33Now, you are without a save tonight.
00:03:36Yes.
00:03:37It was well used, though.
00:03:38It was, because you used it on Jayden.
00:03:40Are you happy about that decision?
00:03:42I mean, that's worth saving.
00:03:43Jayden was incredible.
00:03:45That was an amazing battle.
00:03:48And night one.
00:03:49Adam Lambert, that was a showstopper.
00:03:52You still have your save, don't you?
00:03:54I do.
00:03:55I tried to use it last night to clean up Guy's mess.
00:03:57You know, he was putting two really good singers up against each other.
00:04:01I mean, that was bold.
00:04:02It was silly.
00:04:03But luckily, Jayden was saved.
00:04:04That's great.
00:04:05He's a great singer.
00:04:06I was happy to see him back in the competition.
00:04:08Well, a lot to look forward to.
00:04:09So, first up and waiting backstage in anticipation,
00:04:13it's Team Leanne.
00:04:17Hello.
00:04:23All right.
00:04:24Brace yourselves.
00:04:26Sizing everyone up.
00:04:27Team Leanne is full of incredible artists.
00:04:30A few stand out.
00:04:32Natalie, Duncan.
00:04:33Oh my gosh, that guy can sing.
00:04:36And Ruben genuinely intimidates me.
00:04:39Ruben, how do you feel about all the competition in the room?
00:04:42Very nervous.
00:04:43Yay.
00:04:45Are you ready to get started?
00:04:47This battle is between my connected couple, Michael and Violeta.
00:04:54And my beautiful emotional performer, Laura.
00:05:02Oh my goodness.
00:05:03You're amazing.
00:05:05You're amazing.
00:05:07Laura has this really soulful, rich tone that just really got me.
00:05:13Can't go before you even get halfway through.
00:05:22And she really knows how to bring emotion to the table.
00:05:25And I love that about an artist.
00:05:27You could really hear the passion for that song.
00:05:30Is there someone in particular that you were singing that song for?
00:05:34My dad is my musical hero and influence.
00:05:37Well done.
00:05:38Well done.
00:05:39My dad isn't well at the moment.
00:05:42He's currently battling chronic myeloid leukemia.
00:05:46If I've learned anything over the last two years of my life,
00:05:49it's that nothing's guaranteed.
00:05:50I've got the greatest opportunity at my feet,
00:05:52and I want to see it through and win this thing.
00:05:54You're amazing.
00:05:55You're amazing.
00:05:56I'm a little scared.
00:05:57Michael and Violeta, they do blend really well together.
00:06:08The love they have for each other,
00:06:10it feels like they're just letting you into this real intimate world of theirs.
00:06:24I feel like you guys have a really strong emotional landscape to pull from.
00:06:27And I think that's what's so beautiful about both of you,
00:06:30is you have such a deep well to pull from for this song.
00:06:34So the song that I've chosen is Say Something by A Great Big World.
00:06:39I love this song so much.
00:06:40But I think this is probably one of the hardest pairings
00:06:43because there are now three of you,
00:06:45where you guys are so used to there being just the two of you.
00:06:48Michael and Violeta have an advantage
00:06:50because they're so familiar with each other's voices.
00:06:53I feel like I'm going to have to really work hard
00:06:55to find how my voice fits in with them.
00:07:06It can be intimidating.
00:07:07There being two people on the other side
00:07:09who not only are partners in singing,
00:07:11but actually like intimate partners.
00:07:18With Laura, I think it's really about being able to work with Michael and Violeta,
00:07:22but also really stand in her own power.
00:07:25That's a bit clunky.
00:07:26So they could do the harmony on the O
00:07:29and you could do like you were just doing kind of that little ad-lib.
00:07:32With Michael and Violeta, I know they have power,
00:07:35but it's picking and choosing where those moments are.
00:07:38One place I think you guys could get bigger
00:07:40because Laura's bigger there.
00:07:42So sorry that I couldn't get to you.
00:07:45Yeah.
00:07:47Because Laura's already in that space.
00:07:49So it might be just nice to answer her back in that space.
00:07:52What I really want to see from this battle is a congruency
00:07:56and a connection between all three of these artists.
00:08:02Going up against two powerhouse singers in a duet,
00:08:04is scary.
00:08:07But getting through this battle is beyond everything for me
00:08:10and I'm definitely going to bring my A game and make sure I win this.
00:08:14We have to identify ourselves as one artist
00:08:17and at the same time work with Laura to create a good performance.
00:08:22No, we want this so badly
00:08:24and we are going to give it our absolute everything.
00:08:28We want to win.
00:08:30And we will.
00:08:35Yeah!
00:08:36Yeah!
00:09:07Sing up for me
00:09:14I'll be the one if you want me to
00:09:22And I'm feeling so small
00:09:32I was over my head
00:09:36I know nothing at all
00:09:42And I was stumbling for
00:09:52I'm still learning to love
00:09:56Just starting to cry
00:10:04Say something, I'm giving up on you
00:10:09No, no, no
00:10:14I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you
00:10:18Say something, say something
00:10:22Anywhere I would follow you
00:10:34Say something, I'm giving up
00:10:44Say something, I'm giving up
00:10:51Beautiful!
00:11:07Extending ovation from our audience
00:11:11for Michael, Violetta and Laura.
00:11:14Wow.
00:11:15Leanne, you should be proud.
00:11:17They were incredible tonight.
00:11:18That was just absolutely beautiful.
00:11:20We'll get the coaches to help you out with the decision here.
00:11:23Yes, this is going to be extremely difficult.
00:11:25Very.
00:11:26Guy.
00:11:27What a way to kick off night two of the battle.
00:11:29That was huge.
00:11:33I mean, you guys, you came out swinging.
00:11:35Not because there's three of you, but...
00:11:40I mean, this is just downhill from here.
00:11:42Sorry.
00:11:43Vocally, it was perfect.
00:11:45It was really beautiful.
00:11:46I think Leanne's got a really tough job.
00:11:48At first I thought it was a slightly odd song choice.
00:11:52I was watching this heartbreak song about a thruple.
00:11:57But ultimately it's such a gorgeous song that I think
00:12:00that transcended everything.
00:12:04It was next level.
00:12:05For me, if I had to choose one...
00:12:10Michael and Violetta, I couldn't take my eyes off you.
00:12:13And if I had my choice, yeah, it'd be you.
00:12:19Man, that's a tough call.
00:12:21That was so elegant, you know?
00:12:23I felt like everyone was really comfortable in the song.
00:12:27You knew what you were trying to communicate.
00:12:30You took me out to the stratosphere.
00:12:33I was like...
00:12:34Like it got me all...
00:12:37Electrified.
00:12:38I don't know if I could call that one.
00:12:40That was really stunning.
00:12:41Really stunning.
00:12:42I will say...
00:12:44Technically speaking, it was flawless, all three of you.
00:12:47But the emotional presence that you brought to your solo bits...
00:12:52I felt like you were pulling from a real-life experience, perhaps.
00:12:56And it felt very honest.
00:12:58And I really loved it.
00:12:59It was really beautiful.
00:13:00Thank you, Adam.
00:13:02A really tough decision for you, Leanne.
00:13:05You guys, you really did step up to the plate.
00:13:07And vocally, like, were just absolutely incredible.
00:13:10And you guys are so beautiful together.
00:13:12Like, the connection between the two of you is just so, so stunning.
00:13:15It was so wonderful to see you let Laura in.
00:13:18Because I know that can be a challenge.
00:13:20A big challenge.
00:13:21It is, it's a big challenge.
00:13:24Laura, where was that emotion coming from?
00:13:27Were you drawing from something really real?
00:13:30Yeah.
00:13:31When I first read the lyrics...
00:13:34I thought of those times where you just lose faith.
00:13:37I know it's traditionally sung about maybe a relationship.
00:13:39But it meant so much more to me about those times where I felt so low.
00:13:43That, what am I doing?
00:13:44Please give me a sign to keep going.
00:13:46And that's what I felt when I was singing.
00:13:53That emotion was so there.
00:13:55You really were present.
00:13:56Laura, that was just something a little extra special
00:13:58that was just right there in that moment.
00:14:01So, yeah.
00:14:03Yeah.
00:14:07This is not an easy decision for me by any means.
00:14:21So, the artist who won this battle for me is...
00:14:37It's you, Laura.
00:14:41Laura, you've won the battle.
00:14:44Congratulations.
00:14:47She's special.
00:14:48She's really special.
00:14:50Thank you, everybody.
00:14:51Thank you to my incredible battle partners.
00:14:53Oh, my God.
00:14:54I wouldn't have done it with anybody else.
00:14:58Congratulations.
00:15:00I saw you breathing in there.
00:15:01You were so nervous.
00:15:03But you did so well.
00:15:04You did so well.
00:15:05Thank you so much.
00:15:06Make some noise for Laura.
00:15:14Now, Michael and Violetta,
00:15:16this does mean that you are in the danger zone
00:15:18and may be going home.
00:15:20So, the floor is yours.
00:15:22First off, thank you all for turning around for us
00:15:24in the beginning.
00:15:25It's been such an amazing journey.
00:15:26We're honestly very, very thankful to be here today.
00:15:29And thank you so much for the feedback.
00:15:32Oh, my God.
00:15:33I just saved you.
00:15:34Oh, no.
00:15:35So, you came for the high key.
00:15:37Damn you.
00:15:38I completely ****** danced.
00:15:42Oh, my gosh.
00:15:43A double save.
00:15:44I was not expecting that.
00:15:45There you go.
00:15:46This makes me so happy right now.
00:15:48Oh, my gosh.
00:15:49My heart is pounding.
00:15:53Unbelievable.
00:15:54So, Michael and Violetta,
00:15:55you have a double save.
00:15:57Unbelievable.
00:15:58So, Michael and Violetta,
00:15:59you have a double save.
00:16:01Kate and Adam have both chosen to save you.
00:16:04They both want you to stay in the competition,
00:16:06which means you will be going with a new coach.
00:16:10The power is in your hands.
00:16:12Who is it going to be?
00:16:15Which coach?
00:16:28This is the boy.
00:16:36Oh, my gosh.
00:16:37My heart is pounding.
00:16:41As there are multiple saves, coaches,
00:16:44you need to put your case forward.
00:16:46You know, I think what you two do is so different.
00:16:50The fact that you're connected in the way you are,
00:16:53you feel it when you listen to it.
00:16:55And it is beautiful.
00:16:56It's romantic.
00:16:57And I just, I'm very inspired by it.
00:16:59I think it's lovely.
00:17:00Thank you so much.
00:17:02Really lovely.
00:17:03I feel like I have a really deep understanding
00:17:05of what you both can do,
00:17:07what your potential is.
00:17:10I also work with my partner.
00:17:12He and I are basically a duo.
00:17:14And I understand that chemistry.
00:17:16And it is unique.
00:17:17It's something so different to anything else on my team.
00:17:20And also, my Italian pronunciation
00:17:22is a lot better than Adam's.
00:17:27I don't know if they're going to be doing any Italian on the show.
00:17:30Maybe.
00:17:31And I also sung opera.
00:17:45Okay.
00:17:47Firstly, thank you, both of you, for saving us.
00:17:50Because you guys are absolutely incredible.
00:17:53And this is such an honour.
00:17:57We would like to go with...
00:18:05We're going to go with Kate.
00:18:07Yay!
00:18:09Kate Villa-Hartley is your new coach.
00:18:11Go and give her a hug.
00:18:15Congratulations.
00:18:16It was absolutely beautiful.
00:18:18Stunning.
00:18:19Stunning performance.
00:18:20Michael and Violeta have decided to go with Kate.
00:18:24And we will see them perform again in the knockout.
00:18:28Great job, guys.
00:18:29Thanks, guys.
00:18:30Yes, you guys sounded amazing.
00:18:32Yes, thank you.
00:18:33Yes, you sounded beautiful.
00:18:37Michael and Violeta.
00:18:40Next, it's Team Adam's turn to step into the ring.
00:18:48For the next battle,
00:18:50first up, Sienna.
00:18:55Sienna's got something very, very special.
00:19:01She's very mature and kind of poised for her age.
00:19:07She has restraint and grace in the way she approaches the song.
00:19:17But there's probably going to be a point
00:19:19where I want a little more energy from her.
00:19:21Up against Sienna...
00:19:28is Caitlyn.
00:19:33Caitlyn, on the other hand, brings a lot of youth to the table.
00:19:38She's got this raw energy and a big voice.
00:19:44And I think there's probably moments
00:19:46where it would help her to find some nuance
00:19:49and pull back a bit.
00:19:52So, the reason why I paired you together...
00:19:54You're close in age, you're a year apart.
00:19:56No way.
00:19:57How old are you? 17?
00:19:58Okay, I'm 18, okay.
00:19:59What?
00:20:00Yeah.
00:20:01What's 18?
00:20:02I thought she was like 20.
00:20:03So how do you feel about being paired together?
00:20:05Scared.
00:20:06I'm really scared.
00:20:07I might start walking home now.
00:20:09And you still don't even know what you're singing.
00:20:11I've got a good one for you.
00:20:13I've got a ballad.
00:20:20Driver's License by Olivia Rodrigo.
00:20:23Yes.
00:20:24Great song, right?
00:20:25If she's singing about getting her driver's license,
00:20:27she's a teenager as well.
00:20:28I don't even have my driver's license.
00:20:29Me neither.
00:20:30Neither of you do?
00:20:31So maybe the real meaning of the song is like,
00:20:33God, I hope I'll get it soon.
00:20:34Yeah.
00:20:35Driver's License is a brilliant song.
00:20:37It's a great show of range and storytelling.
00:20:40It gives them both an opportunity
00:20:42to show multiple parts of their voice.
00:20:46I still see your face in the white cars,
00:20:50bright eyes.
00:20:52I like Caitlyn's can-do energy,
00:20:54but she needs to take a second
00:20:57and be willing to be vulnerable.
00:20:59Caitlyn, you've got notes.
00:21:01Your notes are there.
00:21:02Like, you can wail.
00:21:03But make sure you're connecting to the story.
00:21:05Yeah.
00:21:06You've got all the notes,
00:21:07so you don't have to think about,
00:21:08oh, am I going to hit the note?
00:21:09It's, why am I hitting the note?
00:21:11Yeah.
00:21:12Being an artist is about
00:21:13sort of stepping into the uncomfortable sometimes,
00:21:15and I think that that's going to separate
00:21:18her as an artist
00:21:20versus her as just a good singer.
00:21:23I guess you didn't mean
00:21:25what you wrote in that song about me.
00:21:28I think Caitlyn has an incredible voice.
00:21:30Cause you said forever,
00:21:32now I drive alone past your street.
00:21:35Lovely.
00:21:36Her ability to belt really high notes
00:21:39is something that I'm envious of
00:21:41because that's not one of my strong suits.
00:21:48There's so many things
00:21:49that are like playing on my mind
00:21:50and into the nerves.
00:21:51The nerves are off.
00:21:52The nerves are nervous.
00:21:53Sienna, she has a little bit of hesitation,
00:21:55a little doubt.
00:21:56I can feel it from her.
00:22:02I don't think I can get up there.
00:22:04You want to flip to your head voice?
00:22:05Like, it sounds really pretty.
00:22:07You don't have to do it like she did it.
00:22:09As long as it's coming from a real place,
00:22:11I think Sienna needs to just trust herself.
00:22:14She's got the goods.
00:22:15So I think she just needs to like decide
00:22:17that she's got this song
00:22:19and just go for it.
00:22:22So I'm reminding you once more,
00:22:24it is a battle
00:22:25and only one of you is going to make it through.
00:22:29But I think there's something to keep in mind
00:22:31about the intention of the song
00:22:33being just as important
00:22:34as the technical side of it.
00:22:37So make sure you're honouring both parts of what you do.
00:22:40It's going to be a tough one.
00:22:42Tough battle.
00:22:48I'm really nervous about battling the Sienna.
00:22:51She's a full package.
00:22:53She's beautiful.
00:22:54She's here because she can sing.
00:22:57I just think,
00:22:58oh my gosh,
00:22:59I'm going to have to fight really hard for this.
00:23:03Performing in the battles with Caitlin
00:23:05is definitely nerve-wracking.
00:23:07She's an incredible singer.
00:23:10Making a career out of my music
00:23:12is so important to me.
00:23:14So I really feel like I've got a lot to prove.
00:23:21Singing Olivia Rodrigo's
00:23:23Driver's Licence,
00:23:24it's Sienna and Caitlin.
00:23:36Sienna.
00:23:49I got my driver's licence last week
00:23:52Just like we always talked about
00:23:56You were so excited for me
00:23:59To finally drive up to your house
00:24:02But today I drove through the suburbs
00:24:05Crying cause you weren't around
00:24:11And I know we weren't perfect
00:24:14But I've never felt this way for no one
00:24:21And I just can't imagine
00:24:24How you could feel so okay
00:24:28Now that I'm gone
00:24:31I guess you didn't mean what you wrote
00:24:34In that song about me
00:24:38Cause you said forever
00:24:40Now I drive alone past your street
00:24:45Red lights, stop signs
00:24:48I still see your face in mine
00:24:52White cars, front yards
00:24:55Can't drive past the places
00:24:58We used to go to
00:25:01Cause I know I still love you, babe
00:25:11And I know we weren't perfect
00:25:14But I've never felt this way for no one
00:25:21And I just can't imagine
00:25:24How you could feel so okay
00:25:27Now that I'm gone
00:25:31I guess you didn't mean what you wrote
00:25:34In that song about me
00:25:38Cause you said forever
00:25:40Now I drive alone past your street
00:25:45You said forever
00:25:47Now I drive alone past your street
00:25:57Oh!
00:26:04Sienna and Caitlin, that was absolutely gorgeous!
00:26:13Leon, two great vocalists here
00:26:16If it was up to you, who would you take through?
00:26:19It's impossible to choose between the two of you
00:26:22You sound great together
00:26:24The blend was so pretty
00:26:27This is an impossible choice, Adam
00:26:29Yeah, completely
00:26:31Thank you, Leon
00:26:32Kate, could you feel the raw emotion from the girls in that song?
00:26:36I really could
00:26:37I think both of you connected to the lyric beautifully
00:26:40I loved it, congratulations
00:26:42Thank you so much
00:26:44Sienna, you have this beautiful sort of refinement and poise
00:26:49And Caitlin, I feel like you're a little pocket rocket
00:26:51Maybe it's just because I'm a fellow short person
00:26:55All right, Adam, that's what your fellow coaches thought
00:26:58I feel like a proud papa today
00:27:01Maybe older brother, I'm not old enough to be their father, right?
00:27:03Yes, you are
00:27:04Definitely not old enough, no
00:27:07This is tricky because this battle was very balanced and matched
00:27:11Sienna has something that you can't quite...
00:27:15It's a little country, it's a little R&B
00:27:17It's a little bit...
00:27:18That's so interesting to me and it's so fascinating
00:27:21Because I want to hear what else we got
00:27:24But Caitlin, you are such a powerhouse
00:27:27You...
00:27:31Your full voice is so consistent
00:27:33It is so strong
00:27:35It never wavers
00:27:36I never have to worry
00:27:37You always hit the note
00:27:38You always nail it
00:27:39So I'm really proud of you today
00:27:41Thank you
00:27:43Both girls are incredible
00:27:44Adam, who won the battle?
00:27:48For me, I think it comes down less to...
00:27:56For me, I think, you know, we can talk about technique all day
00:28:00And you both have great voices
00:28:01It's not really a technique thing at this point
00:28:03You're both great singers
00:28:05Based on the bigger picture of it all
00:28:08The artist that had more dimension for me
00:28:12And that artist that I'm going to put through
00:28:17Is...
00:28:23Is Sienna
00:28:25Congratulations, Sienna
00:28:26You're going through to the knockout
00:28:30Thank you so much, Adam
00:28:32I'm so excited to continue this journey with you
00:28:34And Caitlin, he's right, you're a pocket rocket
00:28:36You've been the best freaking partner to work with
00:28:38You're amazing
00:28:39Well done, Sienna
00:28:43Congratulations
00:28:44That's beautiful
00:28:47Thank you
00:28:48It was great
00:28:49You're fabulous
00:28:51Sienna goes through to the knockout
00:28:53Having won the battle
00:29:00Wow
00:29:02As much as the crowd wants you to be saved
00:29:04Unfortunately, you have not been saved tonight, Caitlin
00:29:09I've had such a great time
00:29:10And just, I've connected with my people
00:29:12I've finally found my people
00:29:14I love that
00:29:15I love that
00:29:16Put your hands together for Caitlin, everyone
00:29:19We crushed that, Caitlin crushed it
00:29:21It's Caitlin
00:29:26This is only the beginning
00:29:27I'm telling you, just keep going
00:29:29You have so much time
00:29:30And you're getting better and better
00:29:32You have a big future ahead of you, I know it
00:29:42It's so hard
00:29:44Still to come
00:29:46As the battles heat up
00:29:49The pressure to perform takes its toll
00:29:52I have no idea how I'm going to sing this song
00:29:55And it's terrifying
00:29:58And later
00:29:59For this next pairing
00:30:00It's time to step up
00:30:05The shock pairing
00:30:06Oh my god
00:30:07No one saw coming
00:30:09I'm excited for this battle
00:30:17This is the fight
00:30:25Gone are the days of singing to the back of chairs
00:30:28The blind auditions are done
00:30:30You're here, you've made it through
00:30:32To the notorious battle rounds
00:30:35The job ain't done
00:30:36And this next bit is not going to be easy
00:30:39It will be just as challenging
00:30:41And I'm not taking it any less seriously
00:30:43I think the biggest challenge
00:30:45Is trying to shine
00:30:47But still making it a really nice duet
00:30:51Sitting in the room
00:30:52Looking at all the other artists
00:30:53Definitely adds a pressure
00:30:55Everyone's just incredibly talented
00:30:57Like, just period
00:30:59It's very overwhelming
00:31:01But exciting
00:31:03Okay
00:31:04For this next pairing
00:31:05First up is Sky
00:31:10You will be battling against
00:31:14Eden
00:31:19How do you guys feel
00:31:20Firstly about being paired together?
00:31:23Excited
00:31:24Your voice is amazing
00:31:25So is yours
00:31:26Sky made a huge impression on me
00:31:28In the blind auditions
00:31:40It's got that delicate
00:31:41Beautiful, soft, high tone
00:31:43Then he's got belt and emotion
00:31:47It means I can do so much
00:31:48With that voice as a coach
00:31:56Eden has such a crisp, pure voice
00:32:04Her voice is supreme
00:32:07Eden, you did Bowie
00:32:08I did, yeah
00:32:09In your blind you did Billie Eilish
00:32:11And I paired you guys together
00:32:12Because they were really special moments
00:32:15Like, it was so unique
00:32:16Both of your voices
00:32:18And as a coach it means
00:32:19We can tackle stuff
00:32:20That I might not be able to tackle
00:32:22With everyone
00:32:24We're going to do a song
00:32:25Which it's probably one of the biggest songs
00:32:27In the world ever
00:32:28If not the biggest
00:32:29Yesterday by The Beatles
00:32:31Yesterday
00:32:33Okay
00:32:34Yesterday
00:32:36Do you guys know this song?
00:32:39Yeah, roughly
00:32:41I've got to say
00:32:42I'm not super familiar with it
00:32:43But we'll give it a go
00:32:45It threw me a little
00:32:46When Sky and Eden said
00:32:47They didn't know Yesterday
00:32:50I don't know if I've met anyone
00:32:51That doesn't know this song
00:32:53I'm very concerned
00:32:55This song was in and around my childhood
00:32:59But not hugely present
00:33:01I reckon let's just take it from the top
00:33:03See what happens
00:33:05Yesterday
00:33:09All my troubles seem so far
00:33:12So yesterday
00:33:14All my troubles seem so far away
00:33:20I can't seem to grab
00:33:21Any kind of familiarity
00:33:25With this song and this arrangement
00:33:26I don't know how this is going to go
00:33:30God
00:33:33Yesterday
00:33:35I'll be alive
00:33:39Yesterday
00:33:42And I would say
00:33:43Try not to overlap each other too much
00:33:46And this is a performance where you go
00:33:48No fear
00:33:49Like, trust me
00:33:50It'll just feel like the melody
00:33:52Once you sit with this
00:33:54You'll be sweet and excited
00:33:57It's a battle
00:33:58Work hard
00:34:00This isn't the time to hold back
00:34:01Let's throw everything at this
00:34:06I don't think we're leaving here
00:34:07Feeling more confident about the song
00:34:09I think we've got a lot of work to do
00:34:12I have ridiculous expectations
00:34:16I have to win this battle
00:34:18Because I'm meant to be here
00:34:21This battle
00:34:22Like I'm learning a completely new song
00:34:24A completely new melody
00:34:25One that I've never sung before
00:34:28And I'm in a bit of a panic
00:34:31We're all trying to stand out
00:34:33So I will do everything I can
00:34:36To make sure that I win this battle
00:35:00Yesterday
00:35:04All my troubles seem so far away
00:35:10Let's go
00:35:11Now it looks as though we're here to stay
00:35:16Oh I believe in yesterday
00:35:23Why she had to go
00:35:29I don't know
00:35:31She would not say
00:35:36Oh I said
00:35:40Something wrong
00:35:42Now I long for yesterday
00:35:53Yesterday
00:35:56All my troubles seem so far away
00:36:03Now it looks as though they're here to stay
00:36:09Yesterday
00:36:13All my troubles seem so far away
00:36:20Now it looks as though we're here to stay
00:36:25Here to stay
00:36:27Oh, I believe in yesterday
00:36:31I believe in yesterday
00:36:34I believe in yesterday
00:36:37Oh, I believe in yesterday
00:36:41I believe in yesterday
00:36:44Oh, I believe in yesterday
00:36:47I believe in yesterday
00:36:55I believe in yesterday
00:37:01Oh, I believe in yesterday
00:37:10Oh my god
00:37:22Eden and Sky
00:37:23Sky. Oh, my gosh, your audience are up on their feet.
00:37:27Just wow.
00:37:31Hey, two incredible voices.
00:37:38Could you pick a winner out of the two?
00:37:41Who came out on top for you?
00:37:43Vocally, stunning from both of you.
00:37:47Sky, besides the people in my own team, you have my favourite voice.
00:37:53On the whole show.
00:37:54And I think you deserve to go to the next step.
00:38:01Eden, tonight in the battles, I couldn't take my eyes off of you.
00:38:05Because I found it interesting and unique.
00:38:07Your tone is so sweet and buttery and it just comes out.
00:38:11I mean, it looks very natural for you, which I like.
00:38:13I think Sky, I think the one thing missing for me was some dynamics.
00:38:17It kind of felt a lot at the same sort of spot in your voice the whole time.
00:38:21But I really wanted to hear a couple more, like, flavours of your voice within the performance.
00:38:27Adam, it's very interesting that you say it like that.
00:38:30Because Sky, there was definitely something that wasn't a hundred tonight.
00:38:35And you know it, even that, not a hundred, is still insane.
00:38:42And, but I knew that the layers and textures weren't there.
00:38:45But what I am proud is that you knew it early on in the very first line.
00:38:50Because I must have said it to myself.
00:38:51I went, come on Sky, pick, like, get it together, pick it up.
00:38:55And you did.
00:38:56And you navigated it beautifully.
00:39:00Guy, how do you choose between these two performers?
00:39:04I will say, not that it needs to be said, you guys just were incredible.
00:39:11And you showed Australia that talent here just doesn't dry up.
00:39:15It just keeps blossoming.
00:39:16And you moved people tonight with a song that's been covered 50 billion times.
00:39:22And you just delivered it in a way that was sublime and stunning.
00:39:28It's very sad that one of you guys have to go home.
00:39:35The person that I will be taking through to the knockouts.
00:39:46Bye!
00:39:53It's you, Sky.
00:40:00Congratulations, Sky.
00:40:02You are going through to the knockout.
00:40:09Man, it's very, very good.
00:40:13Very good.
00:40:14Yeah.
00:40:15Well done, well done.
00:40:20Sky has won the battle, but Eden can still be saved.
00:40:26This is the thing I love most in the world.
00:40:28It's the place I want to be most in the world.
00:40:31And it would break my heart if I couldn't seize this opportunity...
00:40:34...that's taken me so long to build the courage to get to.
00:40:41This one breaks me.
00:40:43Yeah.
00:40:43This one genuinely breaks my heart.
00:40:46Coaches, time to decide.
00:40:50Do you save Eden or send her home?
00:41:07Unfortunately, there is no save today, Eden.
00:41:11And I think we're all gutted.
00:41:14Put your hands together for Eden, everybody.
00:41:20You should be so proud.
00:41:23Honestly.
00:41:26It's only up and up for you from this point.
00:41:28So don't lose that belief.
00:41:30That is where you belong.
00:41:31It really is.
00:41:55Despite the fact that he's in musical theatre and she's in opera...
00:41:58...they both share similar musical DNA.
00:42:01They both come from the theatre.
00:42:04The world of storytelling.
00:42:06The world of drama.
00:42:08And big voices, big singing.
00:42:11There's going to be a showcase for those powerhouse vocals.
00:42:15You can both just get up there, park and bark, as we call it in opera.
00:42:20The song I chose for them is You'll Never Walk Alone...
00:42:23...by Rodgers and Hammerstein.
00:42:25It is bang in the middle of both of their wheelhouses.
00:42:29And it's just a killer song.
00:42:31Is there anything either of you guys are worried about?
00:42:36This part is going to be really tough.
00:42:39It requires a lot from MJ and I.
00:42:42Both technically, vocally and emotionally as well.
00:42:49I think Matthew is an incredible artist.
00:42:51I love his voice.
00:42:52I don't want to compete against him.
00:42:53I just want to sing with him, you know?
00:42:55But I'm really committed to lifting my artistry to the next level.
00:42:59The artist that shows me a strong, centred, emotive vocal the whole way through...
00:43:07...as well as the artist that brings out their own sense of individuality...
00:43:11...that will be the artist that goes through.
00:43:16It seems there's only really room for one classical voice on Kate's team.
00:43:20And between MJ or I, I really need to fight to make sure that it's me.
00:43:37When you walk through a storm
00:43:42Hold your head up high
00:43:47And don't be afraid of the dark
00:43:56At the end of the storm
00:44:01Is a golden sky
00:44:06And the sweet silver song of a lark
00:44:16Walk on through the rain
00:44:25And you'll never walk alone
00:44:34You'll never walk alone
00:44:49Never walk alone
00:44:59I'm so proud of you both.
00:45:01I think you both connected with the song really, really beautifully.
00:45:04Thank you very much, Kate.
00:45:05The artist that I'm going to choose to go through is...
00:45:15...Matthew.
00:45:18Congratulations, Matthew.
00:45:20Well done.
00:45:22Thank you so much, Kate.
00:45:25Well done. Congratulations.
00:45:28Awesome.
00:45:32This battle is between my rockers, Tezza and Cody.
00:45:36Tezza's such a character.
00:45:38He's just got this natural sound in his voice that's so, like, textured.
00:45:42It just comes out that way.
00:45:43Well, the rebel, yeah
00:45:45She got more, more, more, more
00:45:49With Cody, he's got a warm, rich sound for, like, a pop rocker.
00:45:54And he can hit a lot of notes that he doesn't even know he can hit.
00:45:57Oh, yeah
00:46:00Yeah
00:46:03I'm working it out
00:46:05They're very different singers.
00:46:07So the challenge was finding a song that they could sort of meet in the middle on.
00:46:10I want to create an unforgettable battle.
00:46:13The song I picked for you is...
00:46:16...Zombie by the Cranberries.
00:46:18Which is a big song.
00:46:21I love this song.
00:46:23It's an offbeat song.
00:46:25The words need to be punched out in between the beats.
00:46:28So the structure is going to be a little challenging for me.
00:46:32But I hope the power in my voice will be the thing that gets me across the line.
00:46:36This song's about the pain of war and conflict.
00:46:41So the pain in your voice, Tezza, is very cool for this.
00:46:45Tezza has a very powerful voice.
00:46:48Mine's a lot more on the softer side.
00:46:50Another head hangs lowly
00:46:54Child is slowly taking...
00:46:57The artist that wins this battle for me is the artist that nails the energy of the song.
00:47:01I want to see if Tezza can get more comfy.
00:47:04And if Cody can dig in a little bit more to the grit.
00:47:07That's going to be the telling moment.
00:47:09Can't you see it's not me
00:47:11It's not my family
00:47:14In your head, in your head
00:47:16They are fighting
00:47:19With their tanks and their bombs
00:47:22And their bombs and their guns
00:47:24In your head, in your head
00:47:27They are dying
00:47:30In your head, in your head
00:47:35Zombie, zombie, zombie
00:47:40In your head, in your head
00:47:45Zombie, zombie, zombie
00:47:49I know that this was a challenge. You both rose to the occasion.
00:47:52You both did it with grace and humility.
00:47:55And thank you both for that.
00:47:57The person that I'm going to be sending through out of this battle is...
00:48:04Cody.
00:48:06Cody, you've done it. You've won the battle.
00:48:08You're going through to the knockout.
00:48:10Look, thank you very much.
00:48:12Good job, dude. Great job. Great job.
00:48:22This next battle is between my two social media soul sisters,
00:48:26Hannah and Priscilla.
00:48:28You're the main one lying
00:48:30How you're threatening to leave
00:48:32And I'm the main one crying
00:48:34I can't lose
00:48:36Both of them are comfortable on social media
00:48:39but need to step out of their comfort zone in the real stage.
00:48:42These battle scars
00:48:53The song I gave Hannah and Priscilla
00:48:56is I Try by Macy Gray.
00:48:58I know that this song is iconic
00:49:01but you still have to make it your own.
00:49:03I lay it off but I'm dreaming of you
00:49:08And I keep my cool but I'm feeling
00:49:14Feeling
00:49:16This isn't TikTok. It's not social media
00:49:18where you can delete your last take and upload the best one.
00:49:21This is it.
00:49:23Now I try to hide it. It's clear
00:49:25My world crumbles when you are not
00:49:28Me
00:49:33It's a tough one for me.
00:49:35I don't know if either of you
00:49:37really gave me this clear
00:49:39indication of
00:49:41I'm better or I'm worth
00:49:43taking through and I think that's testament
00:49:45to the fact that you worked as a team
00:49:47and you did a great job.
00:49:50The artist that I'll be taking through to the knockouts
00:49:53is Priscilla.
00:49:56Congratulations Priscilla.
00:49:58You've won the battle tonight.
00:50:00Thank you so much Guy for believing in me
00:50:02and trusting me.
00:50:04We can't wait to see what you do at the knockouts.
00:50:06Priscilla congratulations.
00:50:08Thank you guys.
00:50:10See you at the knockouts.
00:50:18After all that effortless
00:50:20I think I need a lie down.
00:50:22We will be back with more
00:50:24incredible showstoppers right after this.
00:50:43I am so excited
00:50:45looking at the artist in front of me.
00:50:47I was blown away
00:50:49by the level of talent I saw on the blind stage.
00:50:52Getting through the battles was
00:50:54a pretty massive achievement
00:50:56knowing that the coaches appreciated my voice enough
00:50:58to actually turn around.
00:51:00It was an absolutely incredible feeling.
00:51:02What do you think looking around you
00:51:04at the competition?
00:51:06Oh it's incredible. There's nothing but respect.
00:51:08Everyone is so talented, so diverse
00:51:10with their styles as well
00:51:12so we're just going to have to give 110%.
00:51:14That's all we can really do.
00:51:16When I was thinking about what team I wanted to pick
00:51:18having York my boyfriend
00:51:20on team Kate was a big
00:51:22deciding factor for me.
00:51:24Everyone is just so their own person
00:51:26and their own artist so
00:51:28to pit two artists against each other
00:51:30is a tough job.
00:51:32Kate's team is so strong
00:51:34so I need to impress her.
00:51:36The pressure is on.
00:51:38Will?
00:51:40She's looking at me.
00:51:42York, come up here.
00:51:54York's performance in the blind
00:51:56was really striking.
00:51:58In many ways he's
00:52:00quite unpolished
00:52:02but I just find him really intriguing
00:52:04as an artist.
00:52:08York, you will be battling
00:52:10against...
00:52:12Who's it going to be?
00:52:18The drama.
00:52:24Jenna, your girlfriend!
00:52:28Okay, we're ready.
00:52:30We're ready for this.
00:52:38You look like a fool
00:52:40to me
00:52:44and tell me
00:52:46Jenna
00:52:48took a risk by reinventing
00:52:50that Avril Lavigne song
00:52:52that everybody knows so well
00:52:54and she brought something new to that song.
00:52:56Her artistry was on show.
00:53:00What's the relationship here?
00:53:02Okay, so I'm Jenna.
00:53:04I'm 26 and
00:53:06this is my boyfriend.
00:53:08No way!
00:53:10Oh my gosh!
00:53:12How long have you been together?
00:53:14We've been together 6 years.
00:53:18I don't know but I'm getting a little bit impatient.
00:53:22Of course.
00:53:24It's happening.
00:53:26I think this is the first time
00:53:28a couple has ever battled each other
00:53:30on the road.
00:53:32You will be singing
00:53:36Only Exception by Paramore.
00:53:38Oh, I love that.
00:53:40Love that song.
00:53:42It's going to be a bit of a tightrope walk
00:53:44for you guys because I want you to bring that
00:53:46connection and love and chemistry
00:53:48to the stage
00:53:50but also
00:53:52you can pull no punches.
00:54:00Battling against Jenna
00:54:02is going to be a very bittersweet moment
00:54:04in this thing but to have this
00:54:06competitive angle against the person I love
00:54:08more than anything in the world
00:54:10is completely terrifying.
00:54:14To be battling against York
00:54:16if I'm completely honest
00:54:18I'm scared
00:54:20because if I
00:54:22knock York out of the battles
00:54:34You
00:54:36are
00:54:38the only exception
00:54:40You can feel that York and
00:54:42Jenna are a team.
00:54:44They've got this amazing
00:54:46rapport but the trick
00:54:48for each of them is going to be finding
00:54:50their own moment to stand out.
00:54:52No way to
00:54:54believe it
00:54:58Obviously that oh leading into
00:55:00the last chorus
00:55:02that's your chance to really go for it
00:55:04vocally so let us hear
00:55:06what you've got. Nice big
00:55:08belted out high note
00:55:10in your sweet spot and then you can
00:55:12each have a bit of a vocal moment as
00:55:14well. Great song.
00:55:16This song is going to make me cry Kate.
00:55:22We've never had to battle
00:55:24in anything before it's always us
00:55:26being united. I'm nervous
00:55:28really nervous because I
00:55:30do want to win. I actually really
00:55:32want to win. What are going to be the consequences
00:55:34if I do beat him?
00:55:40The stakes have never been
00:55:42higher for me or for Jenna
00:55:44I mean this is something that we both want
00:55:46so desperately so badly
00:55:48I want to showcase everything that I
00:55:50can do. This is going to be the most
00:55:52important song that I've ever had to deliver.
00:56:00It's time for the ultimate test
00:56:02for any relationship
00:56:04battling it out. It's your
00:56:06Keith and Jenna Hudson
00:56:14The battle
00:56:16starts now
00:56:30When
00:56:32I was younger
00:56:34I saw
00:56:36my daddy cry
00:56:38and curse at the wind
00:56:42He broke his own heart
00:56:44and I watched
00:56:46as he tried to
00:56:48reassemble it
00:56:52My mama
00:56:54swore she would
00:56:56never let her
00:56:58self
00:57:00forget
00:57:02That was
00:57:04the day that I promised
00:57:06I'd never sing
00:57:08of love if it does
00:57:10not exist
00:57:12Because none of it
00:57:14was ever worth the risk
00:57:16You are
00:57:18the only exception
00:57:20You are
00:57:22the only
00:57:24exception
00:57:26You are
00:57:28the only
00:57:30exception
00:57:32You are
00:57:34the only exception
00:57:36I've got to type it for reality
00:57:38but I can't
00:57:40let go
00:57:42of what's in front of me
00:57:44here
00:57:46I know you're leaving in the
00:57:48morning when you wake up
00:57:50Leave me with
00:57:52some kind of noise
00:57:54It's not a dream
00:57:56Oh
00:58:02You are
00:58:04the only
00:58:06exception
00:58:08You are
00:58:10my only exception
00:58:12You are
00:58:14the only
00:58:16exception
00:58:18You are
00:58:20the only exception
00:58:22And I am
00:58:24on my way
00:58:26to believing
00:58:40Jörg and
00:58:42Jenna
00:58:44Thank you so much guys
00:58:46Thank you guys
00:58:48Your lower voice that you started and ended the song in
00:58:50is really cool
00:58:52It's really present and it makes you take notice
00:58:54I really like it
00:58:56Thank you so much
00:58:58Jenna, a really nice pop sound as well
00:59:00I think maybe in the middle of the song
00:59:02the big kind of dramatic climax
00:59:04I think you both might have been searching
00:59:06for some pitches a little bit
00:59:08but you got back on point
00:59:10I think probably when you guys looked at each other
00:59:12you locked back in which is very very heartwarming
00:59:14I thought it was really sweet
00:59:17Lovely
00:59:19My favourite part was
00:59:21actually the very beginning
00:59:23and when Jörg, when you were singing in your lower
00:59:25register, it was really awesome
00:59:27When you go into that raspy
00:59:29you know, I think of
00:59:31Teddy Swims and I think of those sort of artists
00:59:33where it's so current to have those
00:59:35layers and that grit
00:59:37So I think you're someone
00:59:39to really contend with and I feel like
00:59:41you paired with the right song
00:59:43is a bit of a no-brainer
00:59:47There's something really magical about
00:59:49your chemistry and what it's like
00:59:51when you're watching two people who are genuinely
00:59:53in love performing
00:59:55that you can't fake that and it is
00:59:57really special and magical but I do feel
00:59:59as though it's time to consciously
01:00:01uncouple
01:00:08I think
01:00:10Jenna, you haven't quite figured out
01:00:12who you want to be as a singer
01:00:14and I think that might be an important
01:00:16journey for you to go on
01:00:18Having said that
01:00:20I thought you nailed that vocal
01:00:22and it was beautiful
01:00:24Thank you Kate, I appreciate that
01:00:26and I do agree as well
01:00:28I think Jörg, you're someone
01:00:30who has a more solid foundation
01:00:32as a
01:00:34true artist. I feel like
01:00:36the choices that you make vocally
01:00:40are really exciting
01:00:42and I love all that rasp
01:00:44and that texture
01:00:46Gosh, I'm such a fan of both of you
01:00:48Kate, who was
01:00:50the winner of the battle?
01:00:54I don't know why I did this
01:00:56to myself
01:00:58To you guys
01:01:00We love you no matter what Kate, thank you
01:01:04Alright
01:01:06The artist
01:01:08I'm putting through to the Knockouts
01:01:12is
01:01:16Jörg
01:01:18Jörg
01:01:20I'm so proud of you
01:01:22You are going through to the Knockouts
01:01:26I love you so much
01:01:28Head on down there, go and celebrate
01:01:30with Kate
01:01:32I just have to say one thing
01:01:34really quickly, sorry, I don't know if this is going off script
01:01:36Baby, can you please come down here for a second
01:01:38Is this a duet?
01:01:44What's happening?
01:01:58Baby, can you please come down here for a second
01:02:02Is this a duet?
01:02:04What's happening?
01:02:06What's happening?
01:02:08I know we've just had a big battle
01:02:10and we were sort of competing
01:02:12but I think we found that
01:02:14through that we could work really well
01:02:16as a team
01:02:26Baby, I want to be on your team forever
01:02:28I love you so much
01:02:30Will you marry me, baby?
01:02:36Wow
01:02:38I love you, baby
01:02:42Oh my god
01:02:44Wait, Jenna, is that a yes?
01:02:46Yes, yes, yes
01:02:48Yes
01:02:50Oh my goodness
01:02:52Look
01:02:54Gorgeous
01:02:56I love it all, congratulations
01:02:58Congratulations
01:03:00That's so pretty
01:03:02That's awesome
01:03:04Congratulations
01:03:06Thank you
01:03:12Oh my god
01:03:14To the bride and groom, everyone
01:03:22I mean, that's a really good way
01:03:24to make up for the fact that we won
01:03:26I mean, I got you a ring
01:03:28Thank you
01:03:32This battle is between Letitia
01:03:34You're so ready
01:03:36and Duncan
01:03:38Hey, mate
01:03:40Duncan brought me to tears during the blinds
01:03:54We were all moved
01:03:56by his original song
01:03:58that he wrote for his dad
01:04:00I just completely lost my shit over here
01:04:02You have just such a
01:04:04this earthiness
01:04:06and this beautiful, stunning voice
01:04:08Clearly, you have the heart
01:04:10to move people
01:04:12I'm so proud of you
01:04:14It showed me who he was as a full artist
01:04:16and not just a singer covering a song
01:04:26Everything Always Remember Us This Way
01:04:28and her blind audition
01:04:30was just really moving
01:04:32You have a gorgeous, gorgeous voice
01:04:34and your heart
01:04:36I just felt every bit of you in that song
01:04:38I know she was struggling a bit
01:04:40with some confidence issues
01:04:42You both have incredibly big
01:04:44beautiful voices
01:04:46and you both suffer from
01:04:48a little confidence issue
01:04:50I suppose because of my size
01:04:52I've always been the guy hiding in the back of photos
01:04:54My heart always has to
01:04:56pump harder to
01:04:58maybe prove myself
01:05:00because people look at you first
01:05:02Duncan should have no
01:05:04problem with his confidence
01:05:06When he sings, it's just like
01:05:08connects you straight to heaven
01:05:10It's beautiful
01:05:12For me, my mum was real hard
01:05:14She was Sergeant Major
01:05:16and I just felt like I could never
01:05:18I was never good enough
01:05:20and so naturally I just learnt
01:05:22to be myself
01:05:24But in there, there's this girl
01:05:26this inner child that just keeps fighting
01:05:28to want to just be happy
01:05:30with who I am
01:05:32You have the opportunity to remother that inner child
01:05:34You have kids, right? You have an eight-year-old girl
01:05:36What would you want to hear?
01:05:38What would you tell your daughter?
01:05:40I think it's really important to
01:05:42repattern the wording
01:05:44around what's going on in our brain
01:05:46It's beautiful
01:05:48Duncan has such a big heart
01:05:50and so does Letitia
01:05:52and I think that support
01:05:54system for each other will be really powerful
01:05:56for each of them
01:05:58So, I have chose
01:06:00George Michael and Elton John
01:06:02Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me
01:06:04It's a big song. I think going into this
01:06:06battle, Letitia's
01:06:08going to use her weapon, which is her heart
01:06:10Hey yo, buddy
01:06:12I guess it's up to me to do exactly the same
01:06:14Don't let the sun
01:06:18go down on me
01:06:22Although I search myself
01:06:24it's always someone
01:06:26else I see
01:06:28And I
01:06:30just allow a fragment
01:06:32of your life
01:06:34Duncan has this
01:06:36one thing that he does
01:06:38on the end of every line
01:06:40I've noticed you kind of drop off
01:06:42Don't let the sun go down on me
01:06:44The air is so important
01:06:46You have to support your sounds. It's kind of like a boat
01:06:48being buoyant on water
01:06:50I think it's a confidence thing more so than anything
01:06:52I'd really love to hear him just like
01:06:54fully sing through each line
01:06:56No more of your
01:06:58darkness
01:07:04Close the door
01:07:06I can see that Letitia's getting completely
01:07:08overwhelmed
01:07:10Rehearsing in front of everyone
01:07:12and for everyone to see her process
01:07:14is highly emotional
01:07:16I'm used to singing soul songs
01:07:18and this is different
01:07:20I can see the words
01:07:22but I just haven't had a chance to connect with them yet
01:07:24I just can't hear myself yet
01:07:26I can't see Tisha in it yet
01:07:28and it's terrifying
01:07:30The key word there is yet. It's coming
01:07:32She needs to be able to
01:07:34connect emotionally to the song
01:07:36I love you
01:07:38And I think once she does
01:07:40she'll be able to kind of fly from there
01:07:42At the end of the day
01:07:44we're all in the same boat of learning, right?
01:07:46Yeah. And I think trusting
01:07:48your instinct is going to be
01:07:50key in this
01:07:52whole battle
01:07:54I have no idea how
01:07:56I'm going to sing this song
01:07:58I want to sound amazing up there
01:08:06I feel like I'm just
01:08:08Duncan's backup singer right now
01:08:12There's so much I can give
01:08:14I just hope
01:08:16Tisha's strong enough
01:08:20I'd love to go on and win this battle
01:08:22for my family
01:08:24for my dad
01:08:26for myself
01:08:28I just need to step up
01:08:30and just be confident
01:08:32in what I can do
01:08:42Not barefoot
01:08:44She's got shoes on
01:09:12And name
01:09:16Singing the iconic
01:09:18hit, Don't Let the Sun Go Down
01:09:20On Me. It's

01:11:06I just allow a fragment of your life to wander free.
01:11:16Baby, no.
01:11:20It's losing everything.
01:11:23It's like the sun going down.
01:11:27The sun going down on me.
01:11:37Uh-oh.
01:11:38Uh-oh.
01:11:43Wow.
01:11:48Woo!
01:11:50Great.
01:11:55Wow.
01:11:57That was great.
01:12:00Letitia and Duncan.
01:12:04Wow.
01:12:06That was a battle.
01:12:08Guy, who shone with that song, in your opinion?
01:12:12I'm just going to use the word sublime.
01:12:14I think that that was such a beautiful song to tackle.
01:12:19And in all seriousness, that's probably the most perfect battle so far, vocally, for me.
01:12:27It was, man, it was very difficult.
01:12:33But you know where you shine, and you never lost the song.
01:12:37Letitia, definitely vocally, there's a bit more interest in the way you performed that.
01:12:43But Duncan, I still think, you know, this is the voice and the purpose of having one
01:12:48is to get a message across.
01:12:50You've got this incredible ability to tell a story.
01:12:53Thank you so much.
01:12:55For me, personally, I think, Letitia, I don't know.
01:12:57There's a channel going through you.
01:12:59You are blessed.
01:13:00You have something going on that is next level.
01:13:04What a beautiful thing to witness for us, to see you stepping into your greatness right now.
01:13:09You're really special.
01:13:11Thank you, Adam.
01:13:12Are you OK, Letitia?
01:13:13Yeah, I'm great.
01:13:14You good?
01:13:15Are you sure?
01:13:16Yeah, I just feel this light.
01:13:19She feels the spirit.
01:13:20The spirit.
01:13:20You moved her.
01:13:23Me too.
01:13:25You two have the biggest hearts of anybody on my team.
01:13:28You're so soulful.
01:13:30You're both great storytellers.
01:13:32And Letitia, from where we started to where you are now is like night and day.
01:13:37I hope you're starting to see what we're all clearly seeing.
01:13:42Yeah.
01:13:44And Duncan, you're storytelling too.
01:13:47Your soul and heart and soul shines when you open your mouth.
01:13:51And I love that so much about you.
01:13:56There is a winner for me tonight.
01:14:05And this is really hard for me.
01:14:08Oh!
01:14:09Oh!
01:14:10Oh!
01:14:11Oh!
01:14:12Oh!
01:14:13Oh!
01:14:14Oh!
01:14:15Oh!
01:14:16Oh!
01:14:17The winner of this battle.
01:14:22This is the fight!
01:14:29This is the fight!
01:14:31This is the fight!
01:14:37There is a winner for me tonight.
01:14:45The winner of this battle for me.
01:15:01The winner is Letitia.
01:15:09You've done it, Letitia.
01:15:10You are going through to the knockout.
01:15:16When I was emotional in our mentoring that you said,
01:15:22and you said, do you have a daughter?
01:15:25I said, yeah, she's eight.
01:15:26She's over there.
01:15:27Hi, baby.
01:15:29And you said, what would you say to your girl right now?
01:15:34And I could only think of beautiful things that I'd say to my girl.
01:15:38And then you said, say them to yourself.
01:15:42So all week, I'd be standing over at the Mirai going,
01:15:45you're so awesome.
01:15:49I'm so proud of you.
01:15:51So I'm just grateful I'm coming back.
01:15:54Yes, you are coming back.
01:15:55You're coming back to sing in the knockouts.
01:15:58Congratulations.
01:15:59Why don't you go down?
01:16:00Go and give Leanna a hug.
01:16:02And your little girl.
01:16:05I'm so proud of you.
01:16:07I'm so, so proud of you.
01:16:14Fantastic.
01:16:19Don't fall over.
01:16:20Don't fall over.
01:16:26Duncan.
01:16:27You know, when I'm singing that song,
01:16:29Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me,
01:16:31I was kind of singing it for myself
01:16:34because I gave up on myself a few years ago.
01:16:37The last two years, I've just turned it right around.
01:16:40I feel like I've got a nuclear power plant under my heart.
01:16:45I just want to say to all you guys and everyone back home
01:16:49If Duncan Toombs can do it,
01:16:51anyone can do it.
01:16:53Duncan.
01:16:54If you just believe in yourself.
01:16:55Can I just say one thing?
01:16:56It's possible.
01:16:57I do believe you can do it, and that's why.
01:17:01I'm so proud of you.
01:17:16You have been saved by your coach.
01:17:19You are staying on Team Leanna.
01:17:22I'm so happy.
01:17:28Congratulations, Duncan.
01:17:30I'm so proud of you.
01:17:31You're going through to the knockout.
01:17:33Duncan goes through.
01:17:39Well done.
01:17:47Good save.
01:17:48He's awesome.
01:17:50That brings night two of the battles to a close.
01:17:54Make sure you join us next time
01:17:57for one final blockbuster night of triumphs and heartaches.
01:18:01Who will rise and who will fall?
01:18:03We will see you back in the ring very soon.
01:18:06Good night, Australia.
01:18:27So for the remaining artists,
01:18:30it's do or die
01:18:33to secure a spot in the knockouts.
01:18:36Let's go.
01:18:37Half of us are going home,
01:18:39and I'm going to do everything in my power
01:18:41to make sure that is not me.
01:18:43The stakes have never been higher.
01:18:46I know there's going to be fireworks.
01:18:48Girl, I'm going to have to sing my face off.
01:18:53As the battles reach...
01:18:56So you are definitely withdrawing from the competition.
01:18:59A jaw-dropping climax.
01:19:02You've been doing this show for ages, guys.
01:19:05Has this ever happened before?
01:19:06Never. No.
