And I'm 15 years old.

31
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:13,740
I have four siblings,

32
00:01:13,782 --> 00:01:17,535
but not a lot of the people
in my family are musical.

33
00:01:17,577 --> 00:01:21,289
My dad is a firefighter.
He works 48 on, 24 off.

34
00:01:21,331 --> 00:01:22,999
So, my mom,
she's a stay-at-home mom

00:01:23,041 --> 00:01:26,586
with five siblings going around
and trying to get everyone

to every place they need to be.

37
00:01:28,171 --> 00:01:29,839
All of my brothers play sports,

38
00:01:29,881 --> 00:01:33,176
and I am kind of
like the "oddball" out.

39
00:01:33,218 --> 00:01:37,097
I play guitar, piano,
ukulele, drums.

40
00:01:37,138 --> 00:01:38,973
I'm self-taught
on most instruments.

41
00:01:39,015 --> 00:01:42,143
When I was younger,
I was really interested

42
00:01:42,185 --> 00:01:44,437
in learning
to produce my own music.

43
00:01:44,479 --> 00:01:46,523
But my parents,
they could only dedicate

44
00:01:46,564 --> 00:01:47,941
so much money to each kid.

45
00:01:47,982 --> 00:01:51,486
So I got my first, like,
professional theater show,

46
00:01:51,528 --> 00:01:55,198
and I got enough money
to buy the recording equipment.

47
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:56,616
For the past few years,

48
00:01:56,658 --> 00:01:59,786
I've been consistently building
a home studio.

49
00:01:59,828 --> 00:02:02,247
I was 11, so I was definitely
on a budget,

50
00:02:02,288 --> 00:02:04,040
but I think I appreciate it more

51
00:02:04,082 --> 00:02:05,625
since I had to pay for it
myself.

52
00:02:05,667 --> 00:02:07,836
Some way, I want to
make music my career

53
00:02:07,877 --> 00:02:10,380

just the small community

59
00:02:17,345 --> 00:02:19,931
and the stuff that he does
is very impressive.

60
00:02:19,973 --> 00:02:21,766

than we got, right?

There was not one
tiny little bit of it.

to hear a 15-year-old

have that confidence
in their own ability.

134
00:05:40,757 --> 00:05:43,051
It felt like if I was to get you
to sing that song again,

135
00:05:43,093 --> 00:05:45,011
you wouldn't sing it
the same way twice.

to keep people on their toes.

any recording or anything?

one song out right now,

the acoustic pop.

look at that?

to your voice from the second
you open your mouth.

I don't know
if you noticed, Ryley,

light-years before the others.

I love working
with young people, too.

Actually, I win a lot of time
with young talent.

150
00:06:17,085 --> 00:06:19,671
And I think it's because
I started as a young talent --

151
00:06:19,713 --> 00:06:21,881
I know Niall did, as well --
on a singing competition.

152

than making an album, right?

the best coach for you.

were crazy good.

at 15, wow!

talented, dude.

That was fire.
What really caught me

169
00:06:57,876 --> 00:07:01,755
was the ending where you kind of
just improvised with the runs

170
00:07:01,796 --> 00:07:03,548
and really just
felt the song out.

171
00:07:03,590 --> 00:07:05,383

343
00:13:55,752 --> 00:13:57,754
Whoa!

**

345
00:14:00,382 --> 00:14:01,966
Woosaw.

346
00:14:02,008 --> 00:14:04,052
Wow.
What's your name?

347
00:14:04,094 --> 00:14:05,553
My name is Jamar Langley.

348
00:14:05,595 --> 00:14:07,055
I'm from Andrews,
South Carolina,

349
00:14:07,097 --> 00:14:08,932
but I currently live
in Atlanta, Georgia.

350
00:14:08,973 --> 00:14:11,267
I've heard of that.
Yeah.

351
00:14:11,309 --> 00:14:14,562
That is a perfect example
of not giving up

352
00:14:14,604 --> 00:14:17,899
because you didn't
start out perfect.

353
00:14:17,941 --> 00:14:19,192
Yeah.
And then it got
really good,

354
00:14:19,234 --> 00:14:20,819
and then it started
getting great.

355
00:14:20,860 --> 00:14:24,114
And Chance and I both were like,
"You know what? I'm going in."

356
00:14:24,155 --> 00:14:27,242
I'm blown away by the fight
that you have in you.

357
00:14:27,283 --> 00:14:29,077
Really good. Great job.

358
00:14:29,119 --> 00:14:30,578
Appreciate that. Yeah.
I'm a fighter.

359
00:14:30,620 --> 00:14:33,415
I am putting together
the last team that I will

360
00:14:33,456 --> 00:14:36,876
ever put together
as a coach on "The Voice."

361
00:14:36,918 --> 00:14:38,044
Oh, my gosh.

362
00:14:38,086 --> 00:14:39,504
Jamar.
I would be honored

363
00:14:39,546 --> 00:14:41,756
if you'd be a part of that group
with me, man.

364
00:14:41,798 --> 00:14:43,216
Okay.

365
00:14:43,258 --> 00:14:44,718
Chance doesn't really
even care about his team.

366
00:14:44,759 --> 00:14:48,263
This is his first try.
He's just figuring it out.

367
00:14:48,304 --> 00:14:50,390
There's nothing harder
than hearing Blake say

368
00:14:50,432 --> 00:14:53,601
that same speech every time
that each person turns around.

369
00:14:53,643 --> 00:14:55,562
Oh, man.
Except for...

370
00:14:55,603 --> 00:14:57,981
It's true every time.
...powering through
a performance.

371
00:14:58,023 --> 00:14:59,566
I would love to have you
on my team.

372
00:14:59,607 --> 00:15:01,317
I think that you could
go really far

373
00:15:01,359 --> 00:15:04,112
in this competition
with your tone.

374
00:15:04,154 --> 00:15:05,530
When you got done
performing,

375
00:15:05,572 --> 00:15:07,115
you were probably celebrating
because we turned around,

376
00:15:07,157 --> 00:15:08,450
but I feel like a lot of it
also was just

377
00:15:08,491 --> 00:15:10,285
you were proud of yourself
and in this moment.

378
00:15:10,326 --> 00:15:13,079
Definitely.
If you want to win
the whole competition,

379
00:15:13,121 --> 00:15:14,706
obviously you've got to
come get down

380
00:15:14,748 --> 00:15:17,125
with Chance Team.
You know what I'm sayin'?

381
00:15:17,167 --> 00:15:20,253
[ Cheers and applause ]

382
00:15:20,295 --> 00:15:22,130
I'm very happy for you, Jamar,
and it's always cool

383
00:15:22,172 --> 00:15:24,257
to see somebody who genuinely
wants it make it.

384
00:15:24,299 --> 00:15:25,675
So congrats, man.

385
00:15:25,717 --> 00:15:27,594
Thank you so much.
Yeah. Thank you. Thank you.

386
00:15:27,635 --> 00:15:29,346
Kelly: I love your voice.
I didn't turn around

387
00:15:29,387 --> 00:15:31,848
just because of what they were
talking about at the beginning.

388
00:15:31,890 --> 00:15:33,183
I was nervous
that it was nerves.

389
00:15:33,224 --> 00:15:34,642
I don't coach nerves
very well.

390
00:15:34,684 --> 00:15:36,561
I cannot wait to see what you do
on this show, man.

391
00:15:36,603 --> 00:15:38,313
Thank you so much.
Thank you.

392
00:15:38,355 --> 00:15:40,315
Honestly, thank you so much
for coming down to the show.

393
00:15:40,357 --> 00:15:42,650
And I'm glad you're on the show,
for sure.

394
00:15:42,692 --> 00:15:44,319
Welcome to "The Voice."
Thank you so much. Wow.

395
00:15:44,361 --> 00:15:46,821
Jamar, who do you
pick as your coach?

396
00:15:46,863 --> 00:15:48,656
Okay.

397
00:15:48,698 --> 00:15:50,158
Come on, Jamar!

398
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,660
Let's do this thing!

399
00:15:52,702 --> 00:15:54,704
Come on!

400
00:15:54,746 --> 00:15:56,414
I have to...

401
00:15:56,456 --> 00:15:59,542
I have to go
with my boy Chance.

402
00:15:59,584 --> 00:16:01,711
Ohh!
Yeah!

[ Cheers and applause ]

404
00:16:04,089 --> 00:16:05,507
Jamar was fire.

405
00:16:05,548 --> 00:16:08,134
What I loved the most about him
was his confidence,

406
00:16:08,176 --> 00:16:10,011
especially when
he was done performing.

407
00:16:10,053 --> 00:16:12,138
Congratulations, man.

408
00:16:12,180 --> 00:16:13,431
Can't help him now.

409
00:16:13,473 --> 00:16:15,350
Don't come crying
to me later.

410
00:16:15,392 --> 00:16:17,143
Chance:
I really love performing,

411
00:16:17,185 --> 00:16:19,229
so when I see that
in another artist,

412
00:16:19,270 --> 00:16:21,314
like, it -- it creates
a connection.

413
00:16:21,356 --> 00:16:23,650
Give him some love.
Yo. This is real!

414
00:16:23,692 --> 00:16:25,568
So I'm happy
to have him on my team.

415
00:16:25,610 --> 00:16:27,487
Welcome to Team Chance.
Let's take it to the end.
Thank you.

Let's go.
Next level.

417
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,700
Don't come to me in the battles
when you need me!

Man. Us veterans.
[Laughing] It's hard.

Blake:
The newbies are killing it.

424

Good thing that I'm retiring

425
00:16:48,216 --> 00:16:50,051
because I must be
losing my edge.

Oh, wow!

I'm sorry.
I got that from you.

killing it right now!

That feels good.
Doesn't it?

but when you need a discount

You just ruined that
young man's life.

that guy's chance.

What?!

That's crazy!

You can't keep me down.
I'm going right back in again.

...and have the veterans
fighting back.

Yes!
I didn't see that coming.

Chance the Rapper
is a great artist,

448
00:17:32,719 --> 00:17:34,763
but we don't know crap
about Chance the Coach.

"You're not gonna be able

that other people do."

the odds to follow her dreams.

that leap of faith.

I can beat her.

to sing in front of him.

turns for me.

"The Voice" has never
had a rapper before,

I'm glad I get to partake
in Blake's last season,

but it does make me
a little sad.

487
00:18:55,635 --> 00:18:58,680
My name is Allie Keck.
I'm 28 years old.

488
00:18:58,722 --> 00:19:01,141
I am originally
from Neoga, Illinois,

489
00:19:01,182 --> 00:19:03,059
but I live in Nashville now.

490
00:19:03,101 --> 00:19:05,812
I visited there when I was 15.

491
00:19:05,854 --> 00:19:07,897
I saw all these performers,
and I realized

492
00:19:07,939 --> 00:19:10,358
that was something
people did every night.

493
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:11,735
It was mind-blowing to me.

494
00:19:11,776 --> 00:19:13,528
I basically told my parents,
I was like,

495
00:19:13,570 --> 00:19:14,946
"I'm gonna live here someday."

496
00:19:14,988 --> 00:19:17,282
Allie was gonna
chase this dream.

497
00:19:17,323 --> 00:19:19,951
I was kind of the jerk.
I made her get a degree.

498
00:19:19,993 --> 00:19:23,747
Four days later, we're in
Nashville unloading her.

499
00:19:23,788 --> 00:19:26,332
Allie: I did do music
a little bit in college,

500
00:19:26,374 --> 00:19:29,586
like songwriter showcases
and open mics,

501
00:19:29,627 --> 00:19:30,962
but it's difficult to kind of

502
00:19:31,004 --> 00:19:33,506
break into that scene
in a different city.

503
00:19:33,548 --> 00:19:36,676
So for financial stability,
I got into real estate

504
00:19:36,718 --> 00:19:40,597
doing residential sales
and leasing luxury apartments.

505
00:19:40,638 --> 00:19:42,849
I did better than
I ever thought I would.

506
00:19:42,891 --> 00:19:45,727
I ended up in, like,
the "Million Dollar Club,"

507
00:19:45,769 --> 00:19:48,730
which is when you have like
over a million dollars in sales.

508
00:19:48,772 --> 00:19:51,858
So that's also how I met
some other musicians, too.

509
00:19:51,900 --> 00:19:55,612
It helped a ton. Just kind of
getting your foot in the door.

510
00:19:55,653 --> 00:19:58,073
Right now I play at a couple
different places.

511
00:19:58,114 --> 00:20:02,577
Definitely more evolved into
this Americana rock that I love.

512
00:20:02,619 --> 00:20:05,163
I stopped doing real estate
just a few months ago

513
00:20:05,205 --> 00:20:06,790
and do music full time.

514
00:20:06,831 --> 00:20:08,750
I am so blessed
to be doing that.

515
00:20:08,792 --> 00:20:10,835
But at the same time,
five nights a week,

516
00:20:10,877 --> 00:20:14,297
doing that sort of grind can get
really, really exhausting.

I left my real-estate career

521
00:20:25,225 --> 00:20:26,726
to go after music

522
00:20:26,768 --> 00:20:29,479
because it is what gets me
out of bed in the morning.

Blake: Oh, now.
I like their walk.

524
00:20:31,898 --> 00:20:34,317
I gotta say,
I like the way they walk.

525
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:37,070
I want to be able
to do this forever.

that rocks. That rocks!

Oh, my God.
That was like Jan--

That was like Janis
and Ann Wilson at once.

565
00:22:27,305 --> 00:22:29,182
Thank you so much.
That was --
That was incredibly cool.

What's your name?
Where are you from?

567
00:22:30,934 --> 00:22:33,645
My name is Allie Keck.
I am 28 years old.

568
00:22:33,687 --> 00:22:35,605
I'm originally
from Neoga, Illinois,

569
00:22:35,647 --> 00:22:37,357
but I've been in Nashville
for about six years.

570
00:22:37,399 --> 00:22:39,109
"Nashvull."
Right on.

571
00:22:39,150 --> 00:22:41,069
I will live to regret this.
I know I will, because I was

572
00:22:41,111 --> 00:22:43,905
absolutely rockin' like hell
out there.

573
00:22:43,947 --> 00:22:47,534
When he went, I was like,
"This is right up his alley."

574
00:22:47,575 --> 00:22:49,452
I am literally
a female singer over here

575
00:22:49,494 --> 00:22:50,995
that can sing,
like, rock 'n' roll.

576
00:22:51,037 --> 00:22:53,081
Yeah, but then, you know,
you went afterwards. I'm sorry.

577
00:22:53,123 --> 00:22:54,958
Wait. What? Okay. I did.
I did hit my button second.

in your thing, who went first

I don't know.

581
00:22:59,004 --> 00:23:01,006
are gonna do an amazing job
with you.

00:23:05,844 --> 00:23:08,013
Allie, you can project
more than anybody else

00:23:08,054 --> 00:23:09,639
who's come out
on this stage.

586
00:23:09,681 --> 00:23:13,018
You're a powerhouse
and also perfectly on pitch.

587
00:23:13,059 --> 00:23:14,644
You have
this Janis Joplin vibe,

588
00:23:14,686 --> 00:23:16,813
also Ann Wilson Heart vibe
about you, as well.

589
00:23:16,855 --> 00:23:18,773
If you were to pick me
as your coach,

590
00:23:18,815 --> 00:23:20,942
I would be even more excited
to find some song

591
00:23:20,984 --> 00:23:24,237
that you could be really intense
and like, really, like, quiet

592
00:23:24,279 --> 00:23:25,697
and then explode into that

593
00:23:25,739 --> 00:23:27,532
and just work with you
on dynamics.

594
00:23:27,574 --> 00:23:30,285
You have a killer voice.
Welcome to "The Voice."

595

We are so happy
you're on the show.
Thank you so much.

596
00:23:32,537 --> 00:23:34,831
We don't have,
like, rock 'n' roll yet,

597
00:23:34,873 --> 00:23:36,916
so you are the only one
in this lane.

598
00:23:36,958 --> 00:23:38,918
And I love that it's a female.
That's really cool.

599
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:40,420
Thank you so much.
That's awesome.
Great job.

Thank you.
Yeah.

601
00:23:42,297 --> 00:23:44,966
We don't get a lot of people
that can do

602
00:23:45,008 --> 00:23:47,761
what you just did on this stage
on this show.

603
00:23:47,802 --> 00:23:50,347
I just love the idea of
what you would do musically.

604
00:23:50,388 --> 00:23:51,931
I mean,
when I hear you singing,

605
00:23:51,973 --> 00:23:53,850
I'm already thinking
vintage rock

606
00:23:53,892 --> 00:23:56,686
from the '80s or '70s
or something like that

607
00:23:56,728 --> 00:23:58,897
and put a twist on it.
You could come up here

608
00:23:58,938 --> 00:24:02,025
and just do a country song,
but do it like that,

609
00:24:02,067 --> 00:24:04,110
and it's something
that no one's ever heard.

610
00:24:04,152 --> 00:24:06,154
I really wouldn't
even want to sit here

611
00:24:06,196 --> 00:24:07,906
and talk about songs
with you

612
00:24:07,947 --> 00:24:10,909
because I feel like there's just
so much to learn about you.

613
00:24:10,950 --> 00:24:12,619
And it's all
about communication

614
00:24:12,660 --> 00:24:14,287
between an artist
and their coach.

615
00:24:14,329 --> 00:24:17,374
I want to blow it out one last
time as a coach on this show,

616
00:24:17,415 --> 00:24:20,001
and I'd love for you to be
a part of that with me, Allie.

617
00:24:20,043 --> 00:24:22,545

like an electric guitar.

just to hear you.

Yeah.
What a cool compliment.

625
00:24:34,891 --> 00:24:36,184
That's a sick thing.
No, it does.

626
00:24:36,226 --> 00:24:37,894
Just, like, the way
you manipulate your tone

627
00:24:37,936 --> 00:24:39,646
and stuff is very dope,
so I'm excited to see

628

what you do
in the competition.

Me and Kelly? Or me and Kelly
together versus the rookies?

a lot of life experience,

you can have

This is not what any of us want,

I'll just tell you, for me, the
reason I didn't hit my button,

744
00:29:53,543 --> 00:29:55,628
the performance was just
a little bit loose,

745
00:29:55,670 --> 00:29:57,964
and I felt like it wasn't
really in the pocket,

746
00:29:58,006 --> 00:29:59,299
especially
in the beginning.

747

I think you have
a powerful voice.

landing in the pocket, you know?

Yeah.
I'm kind of in the same boat
here with Blake.

I just felt like there was
a bit of, like, a nervous start.

751
00:30:10,477 --> 00:30:13,438
And we all know what it's like
if you get off to a bad start

752
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:15,982
and you can't just --
you can't just turn the corner

753
00:30:16,024 --> 00:30:17,400
and get it back around.

754
00:30:17,442 --> 00:30:19,819

You've got an incredible voice.

your best performance.

and I hope that you could

a little bit of nerves,

though, too,

765
00:30:38,672 --> 00:30:40,757
was, like,
incredible potential.

it's experience.

holds all goals

1016
00:40:17,125 --> 00:40:19,419
that I want to come true
in my musical career.

1017
00:40:19,461 --> 00:40:22,005
And the cool thing about it --
on the back of it,

1018
00:40:22,047 --> 00:40:24,883
it says I want to be
on "The Voice."

1019
00:40:24,924 --> 00:40:29,054
Ali has never let being
hearing-impaired define her.

1020
00:40:29,095 --> 00:40:31,723
She has perfect pitch,
and that miracle

1021
00:40:31,765 --> 00:40:35,352
is gonna be shared
with the world.

1022
00:40:35,393 --> 00:40:37,645
Man, why'd you make me cry?

1023
00:40:37,687 --> 00:40:39,064
I hope they like me.

1024
00:40:39,105 --> 00:40:40,899
Even just one chair turn,
I'm good with that.

1025

* Have I the courage *

1027
00:40:44,527 --> 00:40:48,031
Ali: It took a long time for me
to have this kind of courage

1028
00:40:48,073 --> 00:40:50,075
to do something as big as this.

1029
00:40:50,116 --> 00:40:52,494
I'm taking
that leap of faith.

1030

Hi. I'm Ali.
I am from Walnut, California.

I'm 24 years old.

1070
00:42:57,327 --> 00:43:00,538
And a fun fact about me
is I am hearing-impaired.

1071
00:43:00,580 --> 00:43:01,748
What?!
Really?

1072

I wear two hearing aids.
I was born deaf.

1073

I'm so blessed to be able
to share this.

Oh, my God.
That's crazy.

Thank you.

1077
00:43:10,799 --> 00:43:12,676
Your runs were

1079
00:43:14,094 --> 00:43:15,512
That's a gift.

1080
00:43:15,553 --> 00:43:18,223
You were amazing,

I'm okay, Dad.
[ Coughs ]

1084
00:43:24,771 --> 00:43:26,272
You are incredible.

Any sort of adversity
that you've had in your life,

1086
00:43:28,191 --> 00:43:30,193
you are just jumping
hurdles here,

1087
00:43:30,235 --> 00:43:31,486
and it's incredible to watch,

1088

so I wish you
the best of luck, Ali.

1089
00:43:32,862 --> 00:43:35,699
Thank you.
If you had lined up

1090
00:43:35,740 --> 00:43:38,618
all the singers that we've heard
so far and then said,

1091
00:43:38,660 --> 00:43:40,537
"Pick which one
is hearing-impaired,"

1092
00:43:40,578 --> 00:43:43,373
you would be the --
probably the last one

1093
00:43:43,415 --> 00:43:44,332
that I would say.

1094
00:43:44,374 --> 00:43:46,042
That vocal
was just incredible.

1095
00:43:46,084 --> 00:43:47,669
The only reason
I didn't hit my button

1096
00:43:47,711 --> 00:43:51,464
is because that's <i>so</i>far
out of my lane musically.

Thank you.
Thank you. Thank you.

1099

Sometimes you hear a song
that you know so well,

1100
00:43:58,054 --> 00:43:59,681
it's embedded in you,
that some people change it,

1101
00:43:59,723 --> 00:44:03,268
it can kind of be weird,
but the changes you made --

1102
00:44:03,309 --> 00:44:05,437
they were so you,
like, I was like,

1103

"I need to turn around
and see who is singing this."

that they could

music as much as they do.

were making felt very soulful.

1184
00:46:57,400 --> 00:46:59,652
Wow.
My feet are cold.

That's good.

1186
00:47:04,282 --> 00:47:07,619
Well, here we are.
We're back at it again.

* Your SOS *

1188
00:47:10,830 --> 00:47:12,832
Whoo!
My name is Manasseh Samone,

1189
00:47:12,874 --> 00:47:14,334
and I am 22 years old.

1190
00:47:14,376 --> 00:47:16,711
I auditioned for Season 22.

1191
00:47:16,753 --> 00:47:19,381
You know, Manasseh,
when your vibrato's so big,

1192
00:47:19,422 --> 00:47:21,132
sometimes it kind of
pulls you off the note.

1193
00:47:21,174 --> 00:47:24,260
Just polishing that, I think,
is all that was missing.
Thank you.

1194
00:47:24,302 --> 00:47:26,596
We do hope you come back
to see us.
Camila: Yeah.

Yes.

Me not getting a chair turn --

1197
00:47:29,057 --> 00:47:30,433
that definitely fueled me.

1198
00:47:30,475 --> 00:47:32,102
It was like
a me-versus-me thing.

1199
00:47:32,143 --> 00:47:33,978
Like, "Well, are you, Manasseh?"

1200
00:47:34,020 --> 00:47:36,147
Like, "Can you really sing?"

1201
00:47:36,189 --> 00:47:38,441
And I'm like,
"Yeah, I can sing."

1202

You know,
you can do anything.

1203
00:47:40,860 --> 00:47:42,946

to last season.

1210

Manasseh:
I'm not going to give up.

1216

And three out of four coaches
have not heard me sing.

1217

Yes.

1218
00:48:19,441 --> 00:48:20,859
I just need one person
to believe in me.

I'm going to get a chair turn.

Your vocals are insane.
Your breath control is insane.

The tone of your voice
is just so specific and unique.

And I think towards the end,

1275
00:51:02,687 --> 00:51:04,481
I felt operatic, like,
tone, too.

1276
00:51:04,522 --> 00:51:06,649
I was a music major for
like two to three years,

1277
00:51:06,691 --> 00:51:07,942
and I studied opera.

1278
00:51:07,984 --> 00:51:09,736
That's where I learned
my training from.

but <i>you</i>are beautiful, as well.

Oh, thank you so much.

1281
00:51:14,699 --> 00:51:16,785
That was incredible. I looked
over right when he was turning.

1282
00:51:16,826 --> 00:51:18,620
I was like, "Man, she got some
opera in her. She's like --"

1283
00:51:18,661 --> 00:51:20,622
That's a really pretty
vibrato.
Thank you.

It's a gorgeous tone.

1285
00:51:21,998 --> 00:51:23,667
For me, I felt like
you were still fighting

1286
00:51:23,708 --> 00:51:27,754
with, um, the tug-of-war of,
like, technique and passion.

1287
00:51:27,796 --> 00:51:29,673
And that was the only reason
why I didn't turn.

00:51:29,714 --> 00:51:31,591

you're on the show.

That was so good.

1293
00:51:39,724 --> 00:51:41,726
But your voice is so big
and so far kind of

1294
00:51:41,768 --> 00:51:44,354
nearly out of my wheelhouse,
so that's why I kind of

1295
00:51:44,396 --> 00:51:45,897
just took a backseat
for a sec,

1296
00:51:45,939 --> 00:51:48,024

Chance was like --

1297
00:51:48,066 --> 00:51:49,984
He was going nuts here
before he turned.
I had this from the jump.

1298

My name is Jerome Godwin III,
I am 20 years old,

1354
00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:49,729
and I am from
Montgomery, Alabama.

1355
00:53:49,771 --> 00:53:52,023
Currently,
I'm a junior biology major.

1356
00:53:52,065 --> 00:53:54,901
I'm focusing on
the pre-dentistry track.

1357
00:53:54,943 --> 00:53:57,195
A lot of my family members
are dentists.

1358
00:53:57,237 --> 00:54:00,115
I'm actually working part time
at a dental clinic,

1359
00:54:00,156 --> 00:54:04,244
and it was very cool to see
people get their smiles back.

1360
00:54:04,285 --> 00:54:05,662
I love to help people

1361
00:54:05,704 --> 00:54:08,248
and make them feel like
their best self.

1362
00:54:08,289 --> 00:54:10,250
I started singing

1363
00:54:10,291 --> 00:54:13,003
in the children's choir
at my daycare.

1364
00:54:13,044 --> 00:54:16,047
When he was 2,
the choir was singing a song,

1365
00:54:16,089 --> 00:54:18,967
and he actually
was directing.

1366
00:54:19,009 --> 00:54:20,844
He was in beat
with the rhythm.

1367
00:54:20,885 --> 00:54:24,055
He knew when it was starting.
It was just amazing.

1368
00:54:24,097 --> 00:54:26,558
Right now, I've been doing
musical theater.

1369
00:54:26,599 --> 00:54:29,811
I also sing at my local church.

1370
00:54:29,853 --> 00:54:32,397
But I'm kind of, like,
at that crossroads.

1371
00:54:32,439 --> 00:54:36,192
"The Voice" will definitely
help me decide which path

1372
00:54:36,234 --> 00:54:39,946

the most attention and effort.

The very first song
I ever wrote was

1543
01:02:12,482 --> 01:02:14,234
with my brother, Steve.

1544
01:02:14,275 --> 01:02:17,570
And in 2014,
we formed Foreign Figures,

1545
01:02:17,612 --> 01:02:19,739

1546
01:02:19,781 --> 01:02:23,368

of a few thousand people

1547
01:02:23,410 --> 01:02:24,828
playing before X Ambassadors,

1548
01:02:24,869 --> 01:02:27,914

just blowing up at the time.

was taking off,

1551
01:02:32,711 --> 01:02:35,463
I kind of had
this inner turmoil,

1552
01:02:35,505 --> 01:02:39,467
just really struggling
to love myself.

1553
01:02:41,136 --> 01:02:43,388
I grew up
in a conservative place.

it comes to LGBTQ individuals

1556
01:02:49,769 --> 01:02:52,772
it was always with
this negative undertone.

1557
01:02:52,814 --> 01:02:56,943
It really took a toll
on my mental health, and...

1558
01:02:56,985 --> 01:03:03,408
I eventually got the courage,
um, to come out

1559
01:03:03,450 --> 01:03:06,619
and just try not get overwhelmed
with all the emotions

1560
01:03:06,661 --> 01:03:10,665
and being choked up by that --
by that moment.

1561
01:03:10,707 --> 01:03:15,253
It took a lot of vulnerability
to open up to other people

1562
01:03:15,295 --> 01:03:18,882
and to uproot my entire life.

1563
01:03:18,923 --> 01:03:23,386
Now I have the most healthy
relationship I've ever been in.

1564

It's crazy to see myself
in this place

I could tell that you were
an instrumentalist

that you were on piano,

an angst in the performance

I can't wait to see him
next round

1683
01:07:27,589 --> 01:07:29,299
performing some Tim McGraw
or something.

1685
01:07:31,259 --> 01:07:33,011
Sick!

[ Laughter continues ]

1687
01:07:36,806 --> 01:07:38,641
Because it's the last season,
it could very well be

1688
01:07:38,683 --> 01:07:40,810
Blake Shelton
he's singing.
That's right.

1689
01:07:46,274 --> 01:07:47,609
* This is "The Voice" *

1690
01:07:47,650 --> 01:07:49,778
Daly: Welcome back
to the blind auditions.

1691
01:07:49,819 --> 01:07:51,613
You see this, guys?

1692
01:07:51,654 --> 01:07:53,239
Watch out!

1693
01:07:53,281 --> 01:07:55,825
No, actually, don't watch out,
but they're kinda tiny.

1694
01:07:55,867 --> 01:07:59,079
My name is Sophia Hoffman.
I am 18 years old.

1695
01:07:59,120 --> 01:08:01,289
Ah! I don't think
that there's any words

1696
01:08:01,331 --> 01:08:04,876
in the human dictionary
to describe how I feel.

1697
01:08:04,918 --> 01:08:07,045
It's like I don't even know.
I don't even know.

1698
01:08:07,087 --> 01:08:08,630
I'm like,
I could cry right now.

1699
01:08:08,672 --> 01:08:10,215
Literally, this has been
my dream since I was

1700
01:08:10,256 --> 01:08:12,509
like 4 years old.

1701
01:08:12,550 --> 01:08:14,010
<i>Sophia Hoffman.</i>

1702
01:08:14,052 --> 01:08:16,096
Woman:
<i>Whoo! Sophia!</i>

1703
01:08:16,137 --> 01:08:18,598
Sophia: Growing up, school was
really hard for me.

1704
01:08:18,640 --> 01:08:20,767
I definitely didn't have
amazing grades.

1705
01:08:20,809 --> 01:08:22,602
Friends were harder to make.

1706
01:08:22,644 --> 01:08:24,854
It really separated me
from the crowd.

1707
01:08:24,896 --> 01:08:28,149
So my mom put me
in a youth group.

1708
01:08:28,191 --> 01:08:29,567
It was a theater group.

1709
01:08:29,609 --> 01:08:31,820
It definitely, like,
helped me bloom.

1710
01:08:31,861 --> 01:08:33,988
I don't really know
how to do a math problem,

1711
01:08:34,030 --> 01:08:36,157
but I sure as hell know
how to sing, you know?

1712
01:08:36,199 --> 01:08:38,410
So I, like,
literally ran with it.

1713
01:08:38,451 --> 01:08:40,829
Now it's a concert
in our house.

1714
01:08:40,870 --> 01:08:43,456
Could be at 6:00 in the morning
or 11:00 at night,

1715
01:08:43,498 --> 01:08:45,041
she's singing away.

1716
01:08:45,083 --> 01:08:46,751
Sophia: Realizing that, wow,
this is, like, my passion --

1717
01:08:46,793 --> 01:08:48,003
it was like a high.

1718
01:08:48,044 --> 01:08:51,339
I cannot believe that
that led us to this.

1719
01:08:51,381 --> 01:08:52,799
We're so proud of her.

1720
01:08:52,841 --> 01:08:54,509
She's come so far.

1721
01:08:54,551 --> 01:08:56,011
You got this.
Thank you.

1722
01:08:56,052 --> 01:08:59,848
If I got a chair turn
from any one of the coaches,

1723
01:08:59,889 --> 01:09:03,309
that would literally make me
the happiest woman alive.

1724
01:09:03,351 --> 01:09:06,271
Today I'm going to be singing
"Amor Eterno"

1725
01:09:06,312 --> 01:09:07,772
by Rocío Dúrcal.

1726
01:09:07,814 --> 01:09:10,817
This song is about losing
somebody that you've loved.

1727
01:09:10,859 --> 01:09:13,778
It is extremely emotional.

1728
01:09:13,820 --> 01:09:15,739
Every Latino knows this song.

1729
01:09:15,780 --> 01:09:18,033
Man: <i>Our next artist</i>
<i>is entering now.</i>

1730

Sophia: So to be able
to stand up on the stage

1731
01:09:21,161 --> 01:09:23,079
and represent my culture

1732
01:09:23,121 --> 01:09:27,000
is honestly one of
the most rewarding feelings.

Well, this may come
as a surprise to you,

1768
01:11:30,540 --> 01:11:32,625
but I-I've never heard
that song before.

1769
01:11:32,667 --> 01:11:35,128
Wow.
When I don't know a song,
I don't know where

1770
01:11:35,170 --> 01:11:36,671
it's supposed to go
or whatever,

1771
01:11:36,713 --> 01:11:38,089
but there was a moment

1772
01:11:38,131 --> 01:11:39,632
that you hit a big note
there towards the end,

1773
01:11:39,674 --> 01:11:42,469
and I saw down the line here
and people were hovering.

turned around, though.

Your voice is amazing,
I have to say.

and time was out.

Oh, God.
I'm so sorry.

1781

I'm good.
How are you?
Oh, I'm good.

You are good.
Ooh!

You are good.
You're very talented.
Thank you.

1788
01:12:08,953 --> 01:12:10,288
I know that it's
a Spanish tune,

1789
01:12:10,330 --> 01:12:13,083
but it felt like kind of
jazz-inspired at times.

1790
01:12:13,124 --> 01:12:14,751
It was fire.
I loved it.
Thank you.

1791

I hope that you keep at it,
keep going hard.

Hi, Kelly!

1797
01:12:24,761 --> 01:12:26,763
Oh, my God.
You do have incredible tone.

1798
01:12:26,805 --> 01:12:28,056
It was so beautiful,
and honestly,

1799
01:12:28,098 --> 01:12:29,391
both Niall and I
were very close.

1800
01:12:29,432 --> 01:12:31,184
I think that's the beautiful
thing about Spanish.

1801
01:12:31,226 --> 01:12:34,479
I think it kind of tells the
story itself and the passion.

1802
01:12:34,521 --> 01:12:35,939
Like, it's so beautiful.

1803
01:12:35,980 --> 01:12:37,982
It's, like, my favorite language
to listen to musically.

1804
01:12:38,024 --> 01:12:41,152
I feel like next time, pick
a song that really does show off

1805
01:12:41,194 --> 01:12:43,905
the lows, like, the highs,
like, all of that,

1806
01:12:43,947 --> 01:12:45,865
'cause we have
90 seconds, right?
Yeah.

1807
01:12:45,907 --> 01:12:47,659
So that's the only thing,
but I think that you have

1808
01:12:47,701 --> 01:12:49,202
a really, really cool voice,
alright?

1809
01:12:49,244 --> 01:12:51,746
Thank you so much.
Yeah.

1810
01:12:51,788 --> 01:12:53,248
You did great!

1811
01:12:53,289 --> 01:12:55,208
I was really bummed
that Sophia didn't get a turn.

1812
01:12:55,250 --> 01:12:57,085
I thought she had
a really cool tone.

1813
01:12:57,127 --> 01:12:58,670
I love Spanish music.

1814
01:12:58,712 --> 01:13:01,047
But I'm looking for vocalists
that can do anything.

1815
01:13:01,089 --> 01:13:02,590
I just want to give, you know,

1816
01:13:02,632 --> 01:13:05,093
some of these special people
out here an opportunity

1817
01:13:05,135 --> 01:13:07,637
to show America and
the whole world what they have.

1818
01:13:07,679 --> 01:13:09,639
Niall: If I brought you to
Ireland, you wouldn't come home.

1819
01:13:09,681 --> 01:13:10,724
You'd love it.
Blake: Yeah.

1820
01:13:10,765 --> 01:13:12,225
Honestly,
it's beautiful.

What's wrong with you?

1823

Alright, I'm going.

1824
01:13:16,229 --> 01:13:17,939
Taking my money
and I'm traveling the world.

1825
01:13:17,981 --> 01:13:20,316
I'm going to Boise, Idaho.

01:13:21,317 --> 01:13:22,610
Gonna figure out
where Utah is,

1828
01:13:22,652 --> 01:13:24,946
and I'm going there.

1829
01:13:24,988 --> 01:13:27,282

Oh, shoot.
Let's try that one more time.

1833

I'm Laura Littleton,
and I am 27.

1834

Shoot!
No, I'm 26. Okay.

I'm Laura Littleton,
and I'm 26 years old,

and I'm from Dickson, Tennessee.

Dickson, Tennessee --
it's a little town

1838

outside of Nashville.

1839
01:13:45,842 --> 01:13:47,469
It's a really tight-knit
community.

1840
01:13:47,510 --> 01:13:49,262
It is one of my biggest
blessings, I think,

1841
01:13:49,304 --> 01:13:50,722
that I got to grow up there.

1842
01:13:50,764 --> 01:13:53,308
A lot of Dickson makes who I am.

1843
01:13:54,809 --> 01:13:56,811
Music's always been around me
since I was little.

1844

My dad was in a bluegrass band.
It was just him and his buddies.

01:14:00,023 --> 01:14:02,025
They would meet
at his tire shop,

practice a couple nights a week.

01:14:03,735 --> 01:14:06,821
The tire shop that he owns --
it's almost 100 years old.

1848
01:14:06,863 --> 01:14:09,157
The dynamic of it
and just the, like,

1849
01:14:09,199 --> 01:14:11,076
eclectic things that he has --

1850
01:14:11,117 --> 01:14:13,536
turkeys and deers,
vintage signs.

1851
01:14:13,578 --> 01:14:14,913
Remember that one?

1852
01:14:14,954 --> 01:14:16,289
No. Well, I remember the one
the raccoon made.

1853
01:14:16,331 --> 01:14:18,708
There's so much
that goes into the shop.

1854
01:14:18,750 --> 01:14:21,169
And then when you add
bluegrass music on top of it,

1855
01:14:21,211 --> 01:14:22,962
it's the coolest thing
in the world.

1856
01:14:23,004 --> 01:14:24,839
It's been in music videos.

1857
01:14:24,881 --> 01:14:26,341
Blake Shelton's been down there.

1858
01:14:26,383 --> 01:14:29,177
I call it one of the wonders
of the world.

1859
01:14:29,219 --> 01:14:30,512
I was probably a sophomore
in high school

1860
01:14:30,553 --> 01:14:32,681
the first time
I ever got on the stage.

1861
01:14:32,722 --> 01:14:35,684
I would perform with my dad
sometimes in his band

1862
01:14:35,725 --> 01:14:37,185
and then loved it.

1863
01:14:37,227 --> 01:14:39,437
But after I graduated
high school,

1864
01:14:39,479 --> 01:14:40,897
all my friends had left.

1865
01:14:40,939 --> 01:14:46,319
So it was a transitional period
that I wasn't expecting.

1866
01:14:46,361 --> 01:14:49,322
The emotions that I was
experiencing, the loneliness,

1867
01:14:49,364 --> 01:14:51,324
the thought of getting up
and brushing my hair

1868
01:14:51,366 --> 01:14:53,451
or taking a shower
or anything like that,

1869
01:14:53,493 --> 01:14:56,329
just that very thought
would keep me in bed all day.

1870
01:14:56,371 --> 01:14:59,040
I remember sitting down
one night and Googling,

1871
01:14:59,082 --> 01:15:01,042
"Why do I feel this way?
Why do I feel this way?"

1872
01:15:01,084 --> 01:15:03,211
And there was like
16 different things

1873
01:15:03,253 --> 01:15:04,629
that all pointed back
to depression,

1874
01:15:04,671 --> 01:15:07,215
and I didn't even know
what that was.

1875
01:15:07,257 --> 01:15:10,051
You know, when I sit
and think about all the things

1876
01:15:10,093 --> 01:15:12,053
that helped me get through
that time in my life,

1877
01:15:12,095 --> 01:15:15,223
there was friendships,
my family, my faith.

1878
01:15:15,265 --> 01:15:18,059
And then when you add music
on top of that,

1879
01:15:18,101 --> 01:15:21,062
music was a friend
when I needed one.

1880
01:15:21,104 --> 01:15:23,064
I know you're proud
of yourself.

1881
01:15:23,106 --> 01:15:26,276
You should be.
This is the adventure
of your life.

1882
01:15:26,317 --> 01:15:28,570
And if I have a chance
to step into that

1883
01:15:28,611 --> 01:15:31,072
and help create that
for other people,

1884
01:15:31,114 --> 01:15:34,367
that's what I want to do.

1885
01:15:34,409 --> 01:15:37,078
Today I am getting the honor
of singing

1886
01:15:37,120 --> 01:15:38,621
"Sign of the Times"
by Harry Styles.

1887
01:15:38,663 --> 01:15:40,081
It's either gonna be
a four-chair turn

1888
01:15:40,123 --> 01:15:41,666
or a no-chair turn.

1889
01:15:41,708 --> 01:15:43,209
I'm calling it
three-chair.

1890
01:15:43,251 --> 01:15:45,962
I'll put a bluegrass,
like, a slower twist to it.

1891
01:15:46,004 --> 01:15:47,881
It'll be really,
really cool to see

1892
01:15:47,922 --> 01:15:49,507
the reaction
that the coaches have,

1893
01:15:49,549 --> 01:15:52,635
and I'm hoping they'll
turn around because of that.

blocked Niall.
That's it, right?

if it was a country person

doing, like, a twist on it.
I couldn't tell.

And she's from Tennessee,
so I -- yeah.

1942
01:18:20,658 --> 01:18:21,826
I probably should have
blocked Niall.

Not necessarily
a country artist,

a country girl.

from Nashville

to Centerville, Tennessee,

1950
01:18:34,506 --> 01:18:36,424
I would stop at the Arby's
off the exit

01:18:36,466 --> 01:18:39,135
and buy me and my dog
a roast beef sandwich.

Those roast beef sandwiches
are good.

and one for my dog.

I was like, "This is like Dolly
meets Florence and the Machine."

to watch

It was like --
It was a bit alt,

2012
01:20:59,651 --> 01:21:01,111
it was off to the left
a bit.

2013
01:21:01,152 --> 01:21:02,987
And that's what you scream.
Like, there's so many

2014
01:21:03,029 --> 01:21:04,698
different artists
that you can think of

2015
01:21:04,739 --> 01:21:06,032
and so many different genres.

2016
01:21:06,074 --> 01:21:07,242
I can hear you singing rock.

2017
01:21:07,283 --> 01:21:08,785
I can hear you
singing all sorts.

2018
01:21:08,827 --> 01:21:10,453
When I turned around and see
how much fun you were having,

2019
01:21:10,495 --> 01:21:12,330
I was like,
"This -- This girl."

2020
01:21:12,372 --> 01:21:15,458
I would love to have you
on Team Niall.

2021
01:21:15,500 --> 01:21:16,626
One last thing --
I would like to say,

2022
01:21:16,668 --> 01:21:18,211
if I don't have you
on my team,

2023
01:21:18,253 --> 01:21:21,965
I would like you on my team
as a life-support coach.

2024
01:21:22,007 --> 01:21:23,842
I totally regret
not turning around.

2025
01:21:23,883 --> 01:21:28,013
You are just a very cool person.
I rock with you.

2026
01:21:28,054 --> 01:21:29,514
Thank you.
I think if I had
gotten to see,

2027
01:21:29,556 --> 01:21:31,307
I think, a little bit
of your stage presence

2028
01:21:31,349 --> 01:21:32,809
or just how much
you love performing,

2029
01:21:32,851 --> 01:21:35,020
that's something that
I connect with very strongly.

2030
01:21:35,061 --> 01:21:37,188
Most musicians
and people of our craft,

2031
01:21:37,230 --> 01:21:39,357
like, we love
being on that stage

2032
01:21:39,399 --> 01:21:40,942
and love being able
to tell our story,

2033
01:21:40,984 --> 01:21:43,111
to show who we are,
to heal somebody,

2034
01:21:43,153 --> 01:21:45,613
or to just, like, show somebody
that you can do it.

2035
01:21:45,655 --> 01:21:48,450
And, like, that's just who
you seem to be as a person.

2036
01:21:48,491 --> 01:21:49,993
Obviously, you got
the vocal talent.

2037
01:21:50,035 --> 01:21:52,037
You're exactly
where you're supposed to be.

Thank you.

I want to learn from all of you.

2041

Like, one thing
that I would have been blessed

2042
01:22:01,212 --> 01:22:03,506
to learn from you about --
you're so passionate

2043
01:22:03,548 --> 01:22:04,883
about so many different things,

2044
01:22:04,924 --> 01:22:07,761
and somehow you've been able
to navigate

2045
01:22:07,802 --> 01:22:11,556
pouring in an equal amount
of passion to family,

2046
01:22:11,598 --> 01:22:14,684
to sticking true to yourself
without being confined

2047
01:22:14,726 --> 01:22:16,811
by, like, a specific genre.
Wow.

2048
01:22:16,853 --> 01:22:19,689
The way that your heart
is shown through what you do

2049
01:22:19,731 --> 01:22:22,150
affects somebody
that you've never met.

2050
01:22:22,192 --> 01:22:23,485
You're incredibly kind.

2051
01:22:23,526 --> 01:22:26,363
Can I have a hug,
even though I didn't turn?

2052

You're so sweet.

You're a special person.

No, thank you, man.

I love this, like,
shake in her voice.

It's nearly Joni Mitchell-esque.
She can sing rock.

She can sing big pop songs.
She can do anything.

I could give her
a Kelly Clarkson song,
