OLLY: The competition this year has been so tough.
TOM: We've listened to some amazing voices.
# Yeah! #
# Such a show! # # Whoa! #
I think you're amazing.
THEY SING, TOM WHISTLES
Yeah! I have a dream.
I'm gonna pick Anne-Marie. Yeah, boi!
You're on Team Will. Let's go. # Yeah! #
Olly, you're blocked. Argh! SHE LAUGHS
Whoo! All right. Oh, my God.
That was a phenomenal performance. Top notch, bro, thanks.
ANNE-MARIE: Tonight, on The Voice...
WILL: The Blind Auditions come to an end.
OLLY: Only a few spots to fill and you want the best one.
That's it, the gloves are off.
There's gonna be some pitches and battles tonight. Whoo!
You've gotta be really 100% sure now.
I gotta stop overthinking it.
Oh, my God!
Wow! Yeah! Whoa!
Olly, you look annoyed. NO!
# This is The Voice... #
# Whoo-ooh-ooh-ooh
# Whoo-ooh-ooh ooh
# Whoo-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh... #
Yeah, how are you feeling now?
I'm so excited for it, I can't wait. So excited.
# Are you ready? Are you ready?... #
This one moment could change your life, couldn't it?
It actually could. It's no exaggeration.
It really is a unique moment in time. Yeah.
Grab hold of it. Grab it! Grab hold of it and go with it.
Grab the horns by the bull... Bull by the horns.
Grab the bull by the horns. LAUGHTER
Last day. Oh, no!
Oh-ho-ho. Olly, how many do you have?
I have got one left out of ten. Oh! One left?
One space in Team Olly to fill.
I've got nine, I need one. Ooh...
I have one slot left.
Tom? I've got two spaces left. I think I know what I'm looking for.
I realise what I haven't got yet. Yeah?
Yeah, big soul singer. Boy or girl? Male. Male.
Yeah, I've got the girls. I'm just, like, whatever takes my heart.
Yes, exactly. I feel the same way.
LAUGHTER
There's gonna be some pitches and battles tonight!
Yeah. Ooh!
# I do my hair toss Check my nails
# Baby, how you feeling? Feeling good as hell... #
When I hear you singing in the room, I can just, like, imagine
when they're, like, tch! Yeah. Tch! Tch!
I am Tascha, I'm 21
and I was raised in Staffordshire, but live in London.
I work in a bar in Chelsea. I sing all the time.
I'm down in the cellar at work, I'm singing.
I'm serving customers, I'm still singing. I love it.
I've loved music for, like, as long as I can remember.
I've got pictures of, like, me with, like, my first mini keyboard.
And, like, a little microphone. It is all plastic.
# Do your hair toss Check my nails... #
When I was in primary school, we went on a school trip to a church,
and my music teacher wanted me to sing in front of all the parents.
So, I got up to the front, they were, like, "Wow!
"That little girl can sing." And then, I just carried on singing.
Like, I just love music.
# Feeling good as hell! #
Singing is all I know.
I used to say, "If you cut my arm off,
"music notes would fall out, not the red stuff, you know?"
# There it goes What you love, baby... #
I went to college to study music,
and now I study songwriting at uni.
I wanna do music. I wanna sing, I wanna perform.
So, this is, like, my opportunity to do so.
# Let it go, let it go... #
I've worked so hard for this.
I just really, really wanna see someone turn.
# Let it go... #
We're gonna introduce the first of the night.
Here we go. Oh, my gosh.
I'm gonna go on that stage and give the best performance of my life.
This is my opportunity to show everyone what I can do.
Come on, Tash, you got this.
# Take it here Shoot me down, shoot me down
# I will never hit the ground Hit the ground
# Playing dead, I'll never do
# Gotta keep an eye on you
# Patience is wearing thin
# Paper-thin Promises broke again
# What a sin But it only feeds my energy
# Don't expect no sympathy
# Smoke, fire Flares are going up
# Flares are going up
# O-o-o-o-oh...
# Won't wake my boyfriend, no
# This time I won't let go
# I'd rather die Than give up the fight
# Give up the fight Give up the fight
# Give up the fight... #
APPLAUSE # Put an X on my chest
# On my chest But I'm still standing
# Cos I won't forget The hell on earth you put me through
# Save myself in spite of you
# White flags never going up
# Never going up Oh, no
# White flags never going up
# Never going up Oh, no
# Won't wave my white flag, no
# This time, I won't let go... # THEY SCREAM
# I'd rather die Than give up the fight
# Give up the fight Give up the fight
# Give up the fight Oh!
# O-o-o-oh oh
# O-o-o-oh oh, oh
# O-o-o-oh oh
# Wave my white flag! #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Yes!
Whoo!
Hi, guys. It's me and you, Tom. Yeah.
A boxing match between Tom and Olly! Round one.
What's your name? Where are you from?
I'm Tascha and I live in London.
That was a fantastic start to the show.
That was a fighting performance.
You know, you could tell that you really, really wanted a chair turn.
I absolutely loved that performance, honestly.
Well done. Thank you so much.
Whoo!
You're so good. Mm. You're so powerful. Thank you so much.
You're...
You've got edge to your voice.
You've got a really good range. Yeah.
It was fresh, to me, to quote will.i.am.
LAUGHTER
I thought, "Well, whoever is singing this is nailing it."
Thank you. All right. APPLAUSE
Whoo!
I loved it, too. I feel glad that you're on this show.
I just loved your tone of voice,
and I'm excited to hear you sing again.
Thank you. APPLAUSE
You sing really well. I heard you,
and you have a turn from Tom and Olly. Yeah, I mean...
Cos it's a really tough choice. Who do you think I should pick?
SHE GASPS What?!
I don't know you... Of course.
..so, you've got to think of, like,
who is going to bring the best out of me?
It could be either of them. Mm. Right?
You like, uh, guacamole?
Like, there's so many ways to make guacamole.
LAUGHTER You can make guacamole
with a little salt, put some lemon in it.
You can put some paprika in it.
It depends on how you wanna do it. LAUGHTER
I'm hungry, by the way. LAUGHTER
Can I just say one thing?
What I liked about you is your fight and your attitude.
I haven't got a female in my team
that has that attitude and that fight.
I can't see anyone else in this competition
that brings that kind of flavour.
That's the kind of guacamole I've got coming over here,
do you know what I mean? LAUGHTER
What the guac?! It's turned into a food fight here.
LAUGHTER Well, let me say this before you...
You were the first one of the night. Yeah.
I thought, "Do I believe in what this person is trying to do?"
That's what I try to listen for. And I believe... in you.
And that's the honest truth. Thank you so much. All right.
APPLAUSE Oh...
you're gonna have a hard decision here.
Yeah, it's a toughie. I...
# It feels so weak But, baby, I'm strong
# You don't think I know I'm a champion? #
..gonna have to go for...
Olly. Yeah!
Thank you. # Champion! #
Amazing. Love it.
THEY CHEER AND LAUGH
Oh, yeah. I love you so much.
Congratulations. That's it, Tom.
You're done now. Done!
I'm full to the brim.
I've got ten winners. Oh, yeah, right (!)
LAUGHTER
Not gonna happen. But you've got a good team, though, fair play.
Yeah. You do. Thank you, Tom. I'm very pleased. It's a fact.
She's the only one with a bit of attitude. I really like her.
Me too, that's why I hit my button. That's it, I'm done.
I'm gonna sit over here, Tom, and enjoy the show now.
Give Olly a round of applause. Ha-ha!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Woo-hoo! Team Olly's in the can. # Champion! #
Right, you lovely lot,
# This is The Voice... #
# At first, when I see you cry It makes me smile
# Yeah, it makes me smile... #
What's your, like, midnight snack? Bread.
You like bread? Yeah, I love bread.
What style of bread do you like? Just the whitest bread.
I like baguettes. You know, those French baguettes.
You like that? I like the tiger bread, that's my favourite.
Oh, I do like tiger bread, as well. Yeah, I like gluten-free bread.
Do you?! Yeah.
I like gluten-free, erm... What are those round things?
SHE CHUCKLES
Bagels. Bagels! Bagels. LAUGHTER
Yeah, I like bagels.
Doughnuts? I like doughnuts, as well.
I go nuts for doughnuts. LAUGHTER
Standby, coaches. OK, then.
Does my hair look ginger in this light?
Let's have a look. Action.
I'm Darius, this is Jazz. We're 27, and we're twins from Manchester.
I'm the funny one. He likes to think.
Overall, I've got the better personality.
Better personality, but, I mean, if I wanna pull,
lift me top up when I've got me abs, anyway, and...
Oh, God! Did he say that (?)
When we were younger, we used to wear the same clothes.
Anything for a bit of attention.
I remember one time in school, when we swapped classes.
It went well for about 20 minutes. Yeah.
And then all the kids started laughing,
and then, eventually, the teacher clocked on and we got thrown out.
We started singing around 12 years of age.
We didn't want anyone to hear us, we was quite shy, weren't we?
No-one knew we could sing
until we told me dad that we was going to singing college.
And he said, "You're not."
I'd never heard the boys sing before,
so I made them audition for me.
Said, "I've never heard you sing." But they were actually pretty good.
So, I pressed my big red button for them.
I'm so glad you let us go to college and follow what we wanted to do.
Cos look where we are. Welcome, son.
To that. Cheers to the future.
Cheers. To turning chairs.
Music college was really fun,
but when they started making us perform solo,
we got crippling stage fright.
It definitely held us back for quite a while. Yeah.
I feel like this is a time that we are ready.
We've pushed ourselves, we've made ourselves sing in front of friends.
We can do it. We know we can sing, we can do it.
# Right back Where we started from... #
So proud of you both, though.
I know you are. Such good boys.
To Darius and Jazz, music's everything.
It's what they want to do, more than anything.
And I'd love it for them because I'm so proud of them.
# So, I need to know Cos you carry me
# Back into your heart again... #
Being on stage and being able to look over at your twin brother,
that's very reassuring.
There's no other bond like a twin bond.
We just have to really tune into each other and be really in sync.
Standby, coaches.
Let's do it. Come on, kid.
When we walk out on stage, there'll definitely be some nerves there.
This could be the biggest day of our lives,
so we just need to grab it with both hands.
# Back to where we started from. #
Come on, guys, smash it. Oh, look at my babies. Oh!
# Will you recognise me
# In the flashing light?
# I try to keep my heartbeat
# But I can't get it right
BOTH: # Who-o-o-o-o-a
# Oh, heaven Oh, heaven
# I wait with good intentions
# But the day always lasts too long
# Oh, heaven Oh, heaven
# I'll wait with good intentions
# I sent you away
# I try but always break
# The day always lasts too long Yeah
# And I'm gone Then I'm gone
# Then I'm gone Then I'm gone
# Then I'm go-o-o-o-ne
# Then I'm go-o-o-o-ne. #
Yeah! # Our love is on fire
# It's on fire, yeah... #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
They're twins! They're freaking twins! Yes!
Yeah! Whoa! Are you guys twins?
We're twins. Yeah, we are.
What's your names? I'm Jazz. I'm Darius.
And, together we are... I'm joking. LAUGHTER
But we're 2che. 2che?
Number two, C-H-E. 2che.
Oh, "2che"! 2che!
Oh, that's dope! Who's older?
I'm older, seven minutes.
Erm, we're 27. He is, as well. LAUGHTER
I'm gonna try and figure out, like,
what's the difference between you guys.
I eat a little bit more. LAUGHTER
A tiny bit more. Not a lot. Do you ever fight? Not really.
We get along really well, we've lived together all of our lives.
We're practically married to the other.
Basically, he nags me like I am. LAUGHTER
Yo, you asked for a strong male...
Yeah. ..the Lord sent you two twins.
Give me two! Not just one, but two!
Oh, look at their faces.
You bring anybody with you today? Mum and two best mates.
Do they sing as well? Mum thinks she can.
LAUGHTER
Listen, it wasn't a perfect audition,
but I loved the energy you brought to the show.
I'm actually a twin as well,
so it was just nice to see that connection between you guys,
especially when you're singing as well, it's like,
"I've got your back, you've got my back."
It's very special. Priceless, isn't it?
APPLAUSE
I loved it, too.
I've picked a duo as well, so I didn't turn round,
but it was great, and he was loving it,
he turned round and that made me happy, so I'm glad you're here.
Thank you very much.
So, you sing around, you sing locally?
We're bedroom singers, to be honest.
This is probably the biggest thing we've done by far.
But you've been singing since you were kids, right? Yeah.
I thought it was a bit pitchy, but that's all right,
because you just kept getting better and better.
And when you started to go up and up,
and giving it... ASCENDING GRUNTS
You know, I thought, "Shoot." LAUGHTER
Thank you so much for turning, we can learn so much from you,
so we're really grateful. Thank you.
Well done! Thank you very much.
APPLAUSE
Well done, lads.
Oh, my God, they're actually really close-up lookalikes.
Oh, my God, my babies!
Buzzing that Tom turned round. He knows everyone, he's done it all,
so we couldn't ask for anyone better to learn from.
Tom's at nine! One to go for you, Tom.
If I go for the next one, that could be me finished.
Oh, my God! One left.
Me too. Three slots left in The Voice 2021.
We're getting there. We're getting there.
# Who's next? #
Trying not to think about what's about to happen.
My heart is definitely beating. LAUGHS
I'm Hannah Joy Hocking, I'm 30, and I'm from Blackpool.
I was brought up around music,
so I just learnt to sing as soon I could talk.
# When you see me come shining. #
You know that I'm gonna be the proudest mum ever, don't you?
Might need sedating. I'm gonna be so excited.
CHUCKLES
When she was two years old, she used to sit on the steps
and sing Happy Birthday to herself.
She's just never stopped singing. She lives to sing.
I work as a singer, and I met my husband Rob
as we were both in the same function band together.
# Stay close to me... #
Our wedding was incredible.
Best day of my life.
I got on stage just after the first dance, and I sang for Rob.
# Hold on, hold on. #
She looked beautiful in the wedding dress, singing.
And it's just like, "Wow."
I'll never forget it. It was one of the best days of my life.
# Never let me go... #
The song that I'm doing today is really special to me,
because I sung it at our wedding.
I'm really hoping that I do it justice,
and I want to make my family and my husband proud.
# Never let me go. #
SONG: 'All The Man That I Need'
# I used to cry myself To sleep at night
# But that was all before he came
# I thought love had to hurt To turn out right
# But now he's here... # Come on!
# It's not the same
# He fills me up... #
Go on! # He gives me love
# More love than I've ever seen
# He's all I've got
# He's all I got in this world
# But he's all the man that I need
# He fills me up
# He gives me love
# More, m-m-more love
# More love
# Hey
# He's all I've got in this world
# But he's all the man
# That I need. #
APPLAUSE.
# Cos I'm not givin' up
# Givin' up, givin' up, no, not yet
# Even when I'm down to My last breath
# Even when they say There's nothin' left
# So don't give up on... #
She's got something there. Oh, yeah, she could sing.
Big song to sing. Definitely. No, she sang it.
She hit all the notes and everything.
Did I make a mistake?
It's just disappointing, isn't it?
Yeah, I won't ever give up, I'll keep going.
It's part of who I am.
Erm... And I'll always carry on singing.
You were flipping brilliant. Can't believe it.
Absolutely awesome, Han.
OK, I gotta stop overthinking it.
I'm super analytical right now.
# I'm not going down that easily
# So don't give up on me. #
I'm not gonna be turning
until they're quite specifically what I'm looking for.
Wow.
I would really like to have an oddity in my team,
like opera, like a tap dance singer. Mmm.
Yo, you can have them tap and sing at the same time.
Like, do the rhythm.
That'd be, like, well nice.
LAUGHTER
My name is Nadia Eide, I'm 32 years old,
and I'm originally from Norway and Sweden,
but now I live just outside of Oxford.
I live with my husband
and my little toddler, who's a year-and-a-half.
LAUGHTER
# I found you, I found you. #
When it's Bjorn's bedtime, we always sing a song.
Nadia sings a song in Swedish to him,
and... I sing a harmony. LAUGHS
Growing up, I always knew what I wanted to do, which was sing.
For many years, I worked as part of a group,
and I was singing up until I was nine months pregnant.
When you become a mum, it's very easy to lose yourself,
because suddenly, it's not just you,
your whole perspective on life changes.
# It's love, it's love... #
But it also made me realise
how much I needed to keep going with my dream,
which is why I'm here.
Just remember, got little Bjorn at home.
He loves watching you sing.
Coming to The Voice today
is a completely brand new experience for me,
and I just want to make it count.
# If love is fire
# Then I'll burn for you... #
I'm really excited for her to be here
and finally put motherhood aside for five minutes
and have her chance.
I've put everything on hold for a while, to take care of my son,
and now is definitely my moment to shine.
# Feel the fire. #
Now, with the support of my husband and son,
I can keep pursuing my dreams.
So, I really would love one of those chairs
to turn around for me.
# Morir per te
# Per te
# E il mio destino
# Roma la bella dea
# Per me ha deciso
# Anol shalom
# Anol sheh lay konnud de ne um
# Flavum
# Nom de leesh

# Se tu sarai con me lo so
# Dea Roma, vincero... #
Come on! Yes!
# Vincero. #
HOLDS HIGH NOTE
APPLAUSE
# I'm alive
# I'm alive. #
Oh, my God, that's frickin' awesome.
Thank you. You see how the universe works?
Yes. That's, like, magical.
Thank you.
I've been waiting,
and I was like, "My team's kinda unbalanced.
"I'd really like an opera singer, somebody really awesome."
And then you come out, singing like that!
LAUGHTER AND CHEERING
What's your name? Nadia.
Nadia. Where are you from? I'm half Swedish and half Norwegian.
Wow.
Wow. You do this full time, or do you have a job?
I'm a full-time mum at the moment, to a one-and-a-half-year-old.
He's super cute.
But, yeah, I try to sing every opportunity I get.
Brilliant. Well, I'm still in shock over here,
what I just listened to, cos it was amazing. Oh, thank you.
That last note was like, "Where...?"
I was just like... My face just stopped.
"What?!"
LAUGHTER My team's full.
So I don't have the option of pressing my button.
But it's gonna be really exciting
to see what you do next in this competition.
Well done. Thank you.
APPLAUSE
The only reason I didn't turn for you
is because I don't know what I could do.
I don't know whether I could enhance you in anyway.
And I've only got one spot left, so I've got to be very careful.
But you have a beautiful instrument.
Thank God, you're with either one of these people.
APPLAUSE AND CHEERING Anne-Marie and Will. Who do you go?
I loved it so much.
Thank you. I was listening for so long.
You are so different to anyone we've heard,
and I love the opera voice, I love the sound.
It's so different to anything that I do.
I mean, if I tried to sing that note,
I think I would burst a blood vessel in my eyeball.
I think I would do the same, trying to sing your stuff.
LAUGHS
But, you know, you're a new mum,
and you're just up here looking amazing
and singing like an angel,
and I just think you should be really proud of yourself
coming here and doing that. Thank you.
Obviously, you're on the show,
and I'd love you on my team, so... yeah.
Thank you. APPLAUSE
I've had some great memories,
working and collaborating with different genres and disciplines,
and I'd love for you to be on my team.
APPLAUSE
OK, well, time for you to make your decision.
Who are you gonna pick?
# Every night I lie in bed
# The brightest colours fill my head
# A million dreams Are keeping me awake... #
Goodness. I mean, I feel so lucky that I'm even picking.
But I have to say, I did come here with someone in mind.
And that person is Will.
Opera, oh, my gosh! APPLAUSE
Awesome.
# A million dreams... #
Yes!
APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
# A million dreams For the world we're gonna make. #
Well done. That's insane.
What are the odds of, like, "I really want an opera singer"?
People at home, I have nothing in my ear,
no-one said, "OK, opera singer's coming up, remember your cue."
None of that.
None of that happened, no shenanigans.
I'm so overwhelmed, and I'm so, so grateful
that I can be given this chance.
Like, it means so much.
And to be able to show my son, hopefully,
to follow his dreams as well, and to not give up.
Well, that's it, Will, you've got your team.
Me and you have got our teams. That's amazing.
So, it's just Tom and Anne-Marie left.
CHEERING
Are you the nation's next singing sensation?
Yeah, boi! Whoop-whoop!
The next series of The Voice UK
is on the lookout for the best vocal talent in the country.
# I'll be where I wanna be! # And it could be you.
Bring it! Whoo!
If you think you've got what it takes
to get those famous chairs spinning,
apply now.
I have a dream!
You're awesome. All right! Yeah!
Go to the following websites for more information.
Let's go.
# This is The Voice. #
We're the only two left, you know?
One each now. Imaginary high five. Boom!
Me and will.i.am are finito. Done.
See ya. AIR WHISTLES IN STRAW
See ya, wouldn't wanna be ya!
The Voice audience, are you enjoying the show?
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
That said, "Tells a joke".
Anne-Marie, have you got any good jokes?
I met a girl in a club once.
She said, "Come outside, I'll show you a good time."
So I went outside and she ran 100 metres in 4.5 seconds.
LAUGHTER
Yeah, I like that one.
My name is Craig Eddie and I'm 22 years old
and I'm from a little, small town in Scotland called Falkirk.
Ever since a young age, I can remember I loved music.
I take a lot of inspiration from my dad because he sings as well.
I remember I was five years old and I used to go to my dad's gigs,
and he used to pick me up and I used to sing into the mic,
and the first song that I ever sang was actually Sex Bomb.
I always describe him as one of the best humans I know.
I know a father or a mum would say that,
but he genuinely is always putting people first.
Whatever happens, we're just, like, the proudest parents in the world.
Craig has really struggled...
..with both depression and anxiety.
We do whatever we can to get him help.
If he can go and pick up that guitar and start singing,
a couple of hours later,
can come back out his bedroom, and he's smiling again.
I was always uncomfortable, sort of, talking about my problems to people
and music's been a really good way for me to, sort of,
get out what I wanted to say.
In a way, I feel as if I do become someone else when I perform.
The second I step on stage,
all the worries and all the anxious thoughts are just eradicated.
To see my son perform, I've never felt pride like that.
We've all got a purpose, and I think his is music.
# We don't fit in well
# Cos we are just ourselves... #
I was always performing around pubs,
but performing at a pub and then performing on The Voice
are two very different things.
I feel as if I'm masking it quite well,
but inside, I'm very, very nervous.
SONG: 'Make It Rain'
# O-o-oh, a-a-ah... #
APPLAUSE
Woohoo! That was dope.
# The sins of my father... #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
# Weighs down in my soul... #
Unbelievable.
# And the pain of my mother... #
Oh, my Gosh!
# Will not let me go... # No!
# Let the clouds fill With thunderous applause
# And let lightning
# Be the veins
# Fill the sky With all that they can draw
# When it's time To make a change... #
Aargh!
# Make it rain
# Make it rain down, Lord... # APPLAUSE
# Make it rain
# Make it rain a-ah
# Down
# Make it rain
# Oh, make it rain. #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
# Glory days
# These are, these are Glory Days. #
Yes!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE CONTINUES
What is your name? Craig Eddie.
Where are you from? I'm from...
Scotland. Scotland, yes.
OLLY: Did you come with anyone today?
Er, I came with my mum and my dad. They're are over there just...
Yay! ..standing, watching. Do they play music as well?
Do they sing, or...? Er, my dad's a...
HE CHUCKLES She's waving.
Er, my dad sings as well. That's the, like, the main reason
why I'm still doing music today is because I take after my dad.
My dad's my biggest inspiration when it comes to music and stuff.
AUDIENCE: Aww! APPLAUSE
You were so sure.
And every part of your voice, wherever you went,
had a different texture. Yeah. And I was just
so excited to hear every different part.
Thank you. APPLAUSE
That sounded beautiful, and I love your style,
and I'm glad I'm the only one who turned.
LAUGHTER
The reason I didn't turn, you know, because...
Because I'm a fool. LAUGHTER
No, I was listening to everything you did,
and I was trying to find fault with it,
but there wasn't any fault with it.
I think he might have hit every note that was ever... Invented.
LAUGHTER I mean, you ran the gamut there.
I was hovering. Just for you to know.
And I was praying, I was praying that he wasn't gonna turn.
Olly, you look annoyed. What's up, Olly?
Olly's full up, he's got no chance.
OLLY: You sang a song called Make It Rain.
If you could see my emotion inside right now,
I'd probably look like it. There's a big cloud above me,
and rain's just pouring down on me right now.
Oh, what a shame!
I actually put my fingers over my ears.
Cos it was so good that I couldn't listen to it any more,
cos I've filled my team and I can't press my button.
But you are awesome.
Great song choice, great performance.
Thank you, Olly, you're a legend. You're cool as.
APPLAUSE I'm so upset.
WILL.I.AM: You play an instrument? Er, yeah, I play the guitar.
You're literally cool as a cucumber.
I produce my own stuff as well... WILL.I.AM: You produce, too?
Ha-ha-ha-ha! I've got a good one!
LAUGHTER
Plays guitar, sings every note on the scale,
low range in control, awesome rasp, pretty freaking awesome.
Thank you. Will, you're a legend. And congrats, Anne-Marie,
you got a freaking what?! CRAIG LAUGHS
Welcome to my team. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Superb.
Wow. TOM: I heard it all,
I mean, the range the kid's got. OLLY WHISTLES
That's a good one. You happy? Yeah, I'm so happy.
I'm so proud! THEY LAUGH
How do you feel? I feel like I'm dreaming.
I know, that was totally like a dream.
He's as good as anything, I mean, he really is happening.
Yes, he knows who he is. Yeah, yeah.
That was a hell of a song. He was so cool.
When Anne-Marie turned, I almost started to cry.
And you know... THEY LAUGH
You know that I, like, very rarely cry and like...
It was like, just... Just a rush.
The way you held it together was fantastic.
Anne-Marie's got her first Voice Ten.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE TOM: Yes!
Anne-Marie's filled! How about that?
How does that feel? Feels great.
Happy? Congratulations. Yeah, I'm really happy.
Have you enjoyed the process of picking a team?
I've loved it, actually. Looking back now,
I thought it would be harder, but you just have a feeling, don't you?
Then it's just easy. WILL.I.AM: You have
a pretty awesome team, I would have to say.
I think so, too. Very good team. I think so, too.
Wait, you say that with, like, relief,
as if you weren't gonna have a good team.
I just didn't think that... I didn't think anyone was gonna pick me.
You really thought that? Oh, stop it! No way.
Cannot believe that Anne-Marie turned,
it's an honour, I mean, she's amazing.
And I'm very glad that I made my mum and my dad proud
and bring on the next round.
You've got to be really 100% sure now, Tom, because you're...
Oh, thanks. You're, like, the last one.
Yep. If you turn, they are yours.
Yeah, the pressure's on me now.
Thank you!
Oh, it is nice in here. It is nice.
I'm Joanne, I'm 27, and I'm a singer.
I live at home with my mum and dad.
Yeah!
We've lived in Brighton my whole life and I love it here.
I've actually had a really happy life.
I think the saddest thing that's ever happened to me
is my hamster dying when I was 12. Lipstick, her name was.
It's actually horrific.
She'd go into a room and she lights it up.
And for as long as you can remember, she was singing.
She'd be there with a hairbrush singing along to Spice Girls.
And she's been doing that ever since, really.
I decided I want to sing professionally,
and then I did two years on the cruise ships,
which was amazing. I was like Jane McDonald.
I then got into a UK tour of a West End show.
Just felt like a superstar all the time.
Getting paid to do what you love is just the best feeling,
but this competition could take everything just up a notch.
Today's Blind Audition, it's just the most amazing experience.
I can't actually believe that I'm gonna be doing it.
Are you feeling? Yeah, I'm feeling OK, I'm feeling good.
I've got that roller-coaster feeling.
We are extremely proud to see our little girl up on that stage,
you know, belting it out. It's great. Absolutely fabulous.
I'm not really used to being on stage on my own,
I'm always with the band, I'm always with the ensemble,
I'm always with, like, a cast of us. So I'm gonna go out on that stage
and I'm gonna just enjoy every single moment.
Because I'm so lucky to be here.
This could be it, Tom.
WHISPERS: This could be the one.
# If I were a boy... #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE # Even just for a day
# I'd roll out of bed in the morning
# Throw on what I wanted and go
# Drink beer with the guys
# And chase after girls
# I'd kick it with who I wanted
# And I'd never get confronted For it
# Cos they'd stick up for me
# If I were a boy
# I think I could understand... #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
# How it feels to love a girl
# I swear I'd be a better man
# You don't listen to her
# You don't care how it hurts
# Until you lose the one you wanted
# Cos he's taken her for granted
# And everything you have Got destroyed
# You're just a boy. #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Her vibrato was a bit strong for me.
I know you when it comes to that now.
But, again, she could sing, you know.
I liked it. It was very...
I mean, that was something when she was giving it all that.
My poppet. Come here, sweetheart.
No, honestly, it's all good.
'My voice maybe just wasn't what they were looking for.'
I gave it my all, so there was, you know,
there's nothing more I could have done.
# Who do you turn to
# When it all comes down? #
# This is The Voice. #
Tom, the only one left. Yeah.
Don't just turn, I'm just worried that...
Don't turn for average, turn for someone who's really good, OK?
Yeah, yeah. I'm just worried.
You're worried about me? Yeah.
Well, that's nice, thank you very much for thinking like that.
PRODUCER: Stand by, guys!
OK. CLEARS THROAT
I'm a massive Tom Jones fan.
And it would be everything if he turned that chair for me today.
My name's Adam Strong, I'm 32, and I'm from Newcastle.
I'm so proud to be from the North East.
I might be biased, but I don't think you get
better people than the people up north.
At the moment, I live at home with my parents and my gran,
and my three dogs, Lexi, Tia, and Honey.
Daddy's gonna meet Tom Jones.
When lockdown hit, I was performing
in the Queen musical We Will Rock You,
playing the role of Khashoggi.
Obviously, theatres closed
and I had to get another job to survive.
Hello, you're through to Adam. How can I help?
At the moment, I'm working from home for a telecommunications company,
which is dealing with people's bill queries and a lot of complaints.
OK, great, thank you. Have a lovely day.
I've never auditioned with people with their backs to us.
I know. Isn't it weird?
They're all going to press the button.
Thank you, Gran. Gran's told you.
Today will be one of the biggest performances that I've ever done.
I'm always auditioning to be a character,
and today, I've got to be myself.
# Pray for a glimmer of hope... #
I've only got one shot, and I've got to absolutely
give it my all and smash the vocal.
I just hope I can do my friends and family proud.
# Won't you call me? Can we have a one-on-one, please?
# Let's talk about freedom Everyone prays in the end
# Everyone prays in the end... #
I am absolutely gonna give my all today.
I'm gonna give everything I've got.
Singing means everything to me,
I've been singing since I was a child,
and there's nothing else that I would ever want to do.
# Maybe I'll pray... #
You know, I'm a singer,
and I need to get those coaches to turn round for me.
# Waking in the rubble
# Walking over glass
# Neighbours say we're trouble
# Well, that time has passed
# Peering from the mirror
# No, that isn't me
# A stranger getting nearer
# Who can this person be?
# You wouldn't know me at all
# Today
# From the fading light I fly
# Rise like a phoenix
# Out of the ashes
# Seeking rather than vengeance
# Retribution you were warned
# Once I'm transformed
# Once I'm reborn
# You threw me down but
# I'm gonna fly
# And rise like a phoenix
# Out of the ashes Seeking rather than vengeance
# Retribution you were warned
# Once I'm transformed
# Once I'm reborn
# You know I will Rise like a phoenix
# But you're my
# Flame! #
Oh. Whoa.
# God knows I tried... #
APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
# It might not be good enough
# But it's all I have for you... #
I'm so, so sorry.
APPLAUSE
There were parts of his voice I liked.
Yeah, I agree with that. Not the whole thing,
but there were parts there. Yeah.
I feel like he definitely stood out.
Obviously he could sing. He could sing, sure.
# But it's all I have to give
# This is all I have to give... #
He sounded nice, though.
When you know, you know, Tom. That's true.
I hope so.
I'm feeling nervous. Super nervous.
My leg is shaking.
The other leg's about to start shaking.
I'm Nnenna King. I'm 23 years old and I'm a singing teacher.
# Every time I think I'm falling... #
I live in east London with my mum and my sister, Lara.
We weren't the wealthiest of families,
growing up there was six of us, so, you know, two per room.
My mum made it a thing that, you know, you learn instruments.
I just remember enjoying being on the stage,
holding the mic...
And I just knew, like, this is what I want to do.
She has basically followed her heart.
Followed her passion.
I'm very proud of her.
I've been a singing teacher for the past two years.
I think it's improved me as well as a singer.
You know, its like, "Miss, can you do it?"
And it's like, oh, putting me on the spot.
I love being a singing teacher.
But it's not my goal.
I'd love to make albums.
I'd love to be on tour.
Travelling the world.
I just want to go out there and give an amazing performance.
This is definitely one of the biggest moments of my life.
It's such an amazing opportunity
and I feel like I'm ready to grab it.
# Suddenly I can see
# Everything I've waited for... #
# All it takes is one flight
# We'd be in the same time zone
# Looking through your timeline
# Seeing all the rainbows, I...
# I've got an idea
# And I know it might sound crazy
# But I just want to see you
# All I gotta ask
# Do you got plans tonight?
# I'm a couple hundred miles From Japan
# And I...
# I was hoping I could fly to your hotel tonight
# Cos I can't get you off my mind
# Can't get you off my mind
# Can't get you off my mi-i-ind
# Let's get lost tonight
# Let's get lost tonight, baby
# Cos I can't seem To get you off my mind... #
SHE VOCALISES
# Oo-oo-ooh... #
APPLAUSE
# I'm a couple hundred miles From Japan
# And I was hoping
# I could fly to your hotel tonight
# Cos I can't get you off my mind
# Can't get you off my mind Can't get you off my mind
# Let's get lost tonight
# Let's get lost tonight, baby
# Cos I can't seem To get you off my mind
# Let's get lost tonight
# Let's get lost tonight, baby
# Cos I can't seem To get you off my mind. #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
That was the wrong decision.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
# I'm not crying Because you left me on my own
# I'm not crying
# Because you left me with no warning... #
That was tough. I'm getting too picky.
GROANS
That's a shame, that one. I was almost there.
I gave it all I could do.
And it just wasn't enough.
I've got to go and give myself a talking-to.
I'm so proud of you.
Thanks.
They didn't obviously want what they heard.
This wasn't my time, so, yeah, I just gotta keep going.
# I'm just crying cos I can't escape
# What could have been. #
Tom's got this. Huh?
You're experienced, Tom, you got this.
Do you think so? Yeah. Thank you.
I just want to cuddle you. I do as well.
I wish I could cuddle you. Me, too.
One day. I want hugs.
# You got, you got, you got... #
# This is the final hour
# The wait is over
# In the final hour... #
I've got one space left.
It's just so hard.
You'll know, Tom. You're following your gut.
I know, but... You're following your gut.
And you've done that all the way through. Yeah.
The further you go on,
the harder it gets,
because it gets more unsure, I think.
Well, you've come this far, Tom.
# This is the final hour
# The wait is over
# In the final hour. #
It's too much tension for me.
I'm Sami Nathan. I'm 31 years old, from London,
and I am singer-songwriter.
I sing all day.
My family used to worry about me,
because I used to just hum all the time, constantly.
I know I got on everyone's nerves.
I started writing when I was about 13.
I remember bunking off lessons sometimes
and hiding in the music rooms,
and writing on the piano for hours.
But, yeah, I kind of found myself drawn to writing music.
I wrote a lot of very personal stuff about loss of my family,
and so I definitely wrote about the real stuff.
I've written 500 songs.
So that sort of led me to getting my first publishing deal,
which is to write for myself and other people.
I didn't even know what a publishing deal was
at that point, so I was like, "What is this?"
But it's not the same.
I want to sing my songs now onstage,
because it's all that matters to me.
# I had a dream... #
I've actually been living with my aunt at home,
because my plan for this year was to put all of my money
into my songs.
She's got a very powerful voice and always sang, always done gigs,
music is Sami's life. Yeah. She's never gonna give that up.
# As long as I'm here
# No-one can hurt you... #
I'm singing a big song
that I think everyone will know.
But I've put my own spin on it,
so I'm very excited for everyone to hear it.
# I had a dream... #
This is my shot now,
so I'm not gonna waste this opportunity,
I'm gonna give it my all.
# I had a dream
# I got everything I wanted. #
# At last... #
CHEERING
# My love has come along
# All my lonely days
# Are over
# And life is like
# A song
# I've found a dream
# That I can speak to
# A dream that I can call my own
# I found a thrill
# To press my cheek to
# A thrill that I
# Have never known
# And you smiled
# And then the spell was cast
# And here
# We are in heaven
# In heaven, in heaven
# For you are mine
# At last. #
CHEERING
APPLAUSE
Thank you.
Wow. Yeah!
Whoa. What's your name, where you from?
Sami Nathan. From London.
Sami Nathan from London, wow.
You're the last person on Tom's team, you know that, right?
Thank you, Tom. That's all right.
How long have you been singing?
Always singing. I write my own stuff,
release my own stuff.
And it just hasn't kicked off the way I wanted it to
and now I'm here. How old are you?
I'm 31. But 31 is young.
And like, you know,
I was reading something today
and it was like, if it's taking you a long time
to blossom,
then you're gonna blossom the biggest,
if you just stick to it. Mm.
Going through it and marinating it,
just only means what you're about...
It's gonna be even juicier, the more you marinate.
Hmm. I'm hungry.
I know. Me, too. Hungry?
I'm so excited to be on your team, Tom! Good, me, too.
Because, first of all, I love that song.
Yes.
That's a heavy song to take on.
Mm. You know what I mean?
You've got to have some...
Right when you flipped that beat, I woulda hit...
I was like, what? That production was dope.
You did a hell of a job there.
Thank you so much. Well done.
"At last, Tom."
LAUGHTER
I've been waiting for you.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
WHISTLING
All right? Thank you.
That's all right, my pleasure.
APPLAUSE
That's it, Tom.
I told you, Tom. I'm so glad you waited.
That's a good one to wait for.
That was knockout. Thank you.
So good.
Tom had one pick left, and it was me.
And I can't believe it.
She's nice. Yeah.
And you're like wizardly song selection,
really like approved that. I do my best.
ALL: Team Tom!
The song is At Last and at last I got the ten.
Yes. And that's it.
That's a sign, isn't it? We've got all our teams now. That's it.
Yeah.
Whoo. We've done it.
Everybody at home,
that's it, that's the end of the Blinds.
Thank you guys so much.
CHEERING Bye.
See you soon!
Love you!
CHEERING
'Next week on The Voice,
'let the Battles begin.'
This is when the competition really kicks in.
Yeah!
They've got to prove how much they really want it.
Wow.
There is no holding back.
That was spectacular.
There can only be one winner.
Who is the winner of the Battle? I don't know what to do.
Help, help. It's hard.
Let's get it started.
People at home, are you ready for this?
