MUSIC: 'James Bond Theme Tune'
TOM JONES: Get ready, it's the semi-finals.
Well, my team is all about great voices,
and that's what you're gonna see tonight.
There are three amazing acts on my team.
I do not wanna have to make this decision.
Team Tom & Danny is all about the voice and the passion.
The gloves are off.
Twelve acts are gonna perform,
but only four acts are gonna move on to the final.
This is the last decision I have to make.
They are fighting for their place, not only in the competition,
but in manifesting their dream.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
MUSIC: 'I Love Rock 'N' Roll' by Britney Spears and Frank Walker
Good evening, coaches.
CHEERING
It's the semi-finals! Yeah!
Are you two ready to do some work?
Yeah! What? What, for a change?
There are two of you in that double chair,
so how are you gonna come to a joint decision tonight?
I think we're quite in tune with each other.
Yeah. We speak through our eyebrows.
LAUGHTER
That's how. It works. It's our own language.
LeAnn. Yes.
Your first semi-final on The Voice UK.Yes.
Woo! CHEERING
How are you feeling about that decision?
I've put three great artists through.
It won't be an easy decision, and I'm ready for that.
You look ready. I'm centred, yes.
You're, like, "I'm ready." I'm ready.
Tom, you know exactly what's gonna happen tonight
cos you've done it a lot, haven't you?
Do you have any words of wisdom?
You've just got to do the best you can.
You know, listen, keep your ears open.
Hopefully, you make the right decision. That's all I can say.
Will.i.am, everybody... CHEERING
..the reigning champion of The Voice UK.
Do you think you've got a winner on your team?
I think I got three winners.
Oh! AUDIENCE:Ooh!
But we all have to make a decision and pick the one winner
we think can take it all the way. Yeah.
And, damn, is it gonna be hard to choose between either one of them.
Coaches, thank you very much. Our coaches, everybody.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
OK, let's get this show on the road.
First up, from Team LeAnn, it is Deb Orah.
# Is it real now...? #
Hello. Hello.
How are you? I'm good, thank you.
Nice to see you. You, too.
Deb is my gospel soul performer.
# Why should I feel Discouraged...? #
Feels like I've blinked and I've gone from the audition
to the semi-finals in what feels like two seconds.
CHEERING
Wow!
'She really knows how to sell a song.'
If she doesn't make you cry, there's something wrong.
I have chosen a song for you.
I love the song, by Simon & Garfunkel,
Bridge Over Troubled Water. Yeah. It's a beautiful song.
# Like a bridge... #
'I really like the song.'
The meanings of the words are really emotional and sentimental.
That authenticity, that vulnerability
is what people connect with.
You go back home to teach in between all of this, right?
Yeah. You sing to them?
They don't know. Oh, my...
What are you talking about? They're gonna get such a shock.
# When you're weary... #
Deb is juggling a lot.
She's doing this show, she's got her family,
she's got her kids that she's teaching,
and I can't believe her kids that she teaches doesn't know she sings.
Like, they're gonna be blown away.
I feel so comfortable and confident in her as a vocalist,
and I just love watching her perform. She's magic.
# Cos you're a sky... #
It would mean a huge amount to get through to the final,
not just for myself but for my kids, for my family.
Debs is a mother and a teacher, and she loves doing that.
But seeing the joy that she's getting
out of singing to so many people,
it's a dream come true.
When I walk out onto that stage tonight,
I'm going to just deliver the song and the message from my heart,
and hope it just connects with the audience.
CHEERING
Singing to stay in the competition, it's Deb Orah.
SONG: 'Bridge Over Troubled Water'
# When you're weary... #
APPLAUSE
# And feeling small
# When tears are in
# Your eyes
# I will dry them all
# Cos I'm on your side
# When times get rough
# And friends just can't
# Be found
# Like a bridge
# Over troubled waters
# I will lay me down
# Like a bridge
# Over troubled waters
# I will lay me down... #
APPLAUSE
# Oh, I will lay me down
# Yeah, I will lay me down
# All of my burdens and my cares
# I will, I will, I will, I will
# Oh, I will, I will
# I will lay me
# Down. #
Woo!
CHEERING
Hey-hey!
Wow!
Deb Orah, everybody.
That was absolutely flawless.
You're incredible.
Tom.
If you take that approach to a song, like you just did,
you've got to be able to pull it off.
And you have that kind of voice that can do that, and you did it.
CHEERING Thank you. Thank you so much.
Will.
That was... Wow!
It was precious and powerful at the same time.
APPLAUSE Thank you.
Gentlemen.
Your voice is insane.
It was so amazing.
Like, you took us on such an amazing journey.
I mean, you elevated the whole atmosphere in this room.
It was incredible. APPLAUSE
LeAnn.
I just love a woman who can take me to church.
And you've done that since the beginning, when you auditioned.
Like, it's just... Oh, it's so good.
And I trust you. I trust you, when you walk out on the stage,
that you know what you're doing,
and what's gonna come out is always gonna be powerful,
it's always gonna be super emotional.
And I feel like you just channel something when you sing.
It's like full spirit comes through you.
Yeah, thank you. So good. So good!
Deb Orah, everyone. Well done.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Next up for Team LeAnn, it's Conor McLoughlin.
CHEERING
How are you?
Great to see you. Nice to see you, too.
Conor is my newbie, who has so much emotion.
There's a lot of passion in Conor.
How's your family been with you being on the show?
Every single one of them are supportive,
but it always lies down to my man and how she is.
So, she was proud of me,
but everybody's excited for me. Good.
# I'm coming home tonight Meet me in the valley... #
I see such a massive difference in myself
through the Callbacks to the semi-finals.
I feel proud of myself.
I think I have the perfect song for you.
Right. I feel like there's something about the song you'll connect with,
and it's a song called Better Man by Sekou.
I think you'll be able to sink your teeth into this one.
I haven't heard the song before, but as soon as they played it,
it's very relatable to my personal journey,
with the show and in life.
# I find it hard To talk to myself... #
Things in the song got a bit difficult,
and I could see that.
Breath is super important when we sing, so...
# Find it hard... #
If you're pushing, you can use that consonant to get some air out.
I really gained a lot from LeAnn today.
# If I'm a little bit honest
# I'm starting to fear The things that I've wanted... #
He made me cry, and that song is so beautiful,
and his voice is just stunning.
I felt like Conor was being a bit safe.
I really wanted him to be a little more conversational with this song.
You made me encourage you to just open up a little more,
so you invite people in to you, you know? Mm-hm.
All those little, small bits and pieces need to happen,
and they will.
It's crunch time now.
It's "get my head focused in the game".
I am so proud of Connor. Of course, I think he has what it takes
to get through to the final,
and it would just change his life completely.
All I needed to do was just believe in myself.
And this is where it's at. This is the time to do that, so I'm ready.
# Whatever it takes cos I love... #
APPLAUSE
Singing to impress LeAnn, it's Conor.
# Cos I love the adrenaline In my veins
# I do what it takes. #
SONG: 'Better Man'
# I find it hard to talk To myself... #
APPLAUSE
# I was afraid to ask for help
# But I know just how it feels
# The pain reminds me it was real
# Even when the night gets dark
# I look up and count the stars
# I find it hard
# To figure it out
# I gave it my all
# Without a doubt
# I made my mind up
# To rise up, and then
# I made my mind up
# To be a better man
# A better man
# Whoa-oa... # APPLAUSE
# A better man
# Whoa-oa
# A better man
# I find it hard
# To figure it out
# I gave it my all
# Without a doubt. #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Conor, everyone!
Are you happy?
Absolutely happy.
Yes? Absolutely.
There was a lot of emotion in that.
Yeah, very big moment for me. Yeah.
Very big moment. I don't wanna cry, so I'm trying to hold it back.
Sir Tom, let's start with you.
You give it your all, and you did.
I felt it. I felt what you were doing.
Thank you so much.
APPLAUSE
Will?
For a song that not many people know, it hits.
And the only way to do that is if you connect to the emotion.
It's like, I felt what you felt
because you sung it like you felt it.
Yeah, it was awesome.
APPLAUSE
Um, LeAnn, I thought you were gonna cry.
I... He's made me cry. I was literally crying in rehearsal.
And you were singing along as well.
I love that song, and it hits me so hard.
And, you know, I know Conor relates to those lyrics so deeply,
and you hear that when you sing it.
Good job. That was really good.
Thank you so much. APPLAUSE
Put your hands together for Conor.
Thank you, thank you. APPLAUSE
Woohoo!
TOM JONES:Strong ones right there.
I know! I know. I'm excited for the next performance, too.
This is gonna be hard. Yep.
(man sings in classic metal style) # Movin' on out, movin' on up
# This is The Voice. #
Welcome back to the semi-final of The Voice.
We are just one performance away
from our first big coach decision of the night.
So, let's gear up for our next singer from Team LeAnn.
Woo, woo, woo! It is Lois Morgan Gay.
# I want you, you... #
Nice to see you. Hi.
Come on in. I'm so excited that you're here.
I'm so excited. I'm excited to hear you sing again.
I'm such a fan, I really am. I'm a true fan of your voice.
All ten on my team at the Callbacks were absolutely incredible,
but Lois just blew me away.
# Nothing compares... #
I think she's really versatile,
so I knew I could kind of throw a lot of things at her.
I think this song that I've chosen will be a bit of a challenge.
Mm-hm. But I believe that you can totally pull this off.
Do you know Joni Mitchell's Case Of You?
I don't know it. OK.
'I love Joni Mitchell, but I didn't know the song.'
I'm not kind of country-folk, really,
but I'm kind of excited to get my teeth into it.
# I'll still be on my feet... #
I don't really know what to do with this bit.
I love what you're doing with the phrasing.
The one thing I wanna watch out for is where
you step into that musical theatre world.
She really wants to learn,
and I love having that, especially someone to coach.
Have you attempted the...?
# You-ou-ou-ou. #
Beautiful!
# Still I'd be on my feet. #
Standing that close to LeAnn Rimes, like, I'm such a fan,
and then she starts singing,
and my jaw was on the floor.
I grew up listening to her music,
so it was just a really full-circle moment for me.
# People, they come And people, they go... #
The folk world is not really her world.
I think, for Lois, it's now just...
"How do I honour the song and how do I honour myself?"
and really kind of finding that dance in between the worlds.
# A beautiful lie It never gets old... #
When I watch Lois walk out on stage tonight,
I will be super proud
and there will probably be tears in my eyes.
This is the biggest performance of my life,
and I am just ready to give all I can.
Hoping her vocals impress tonight, it's Lois.
APPLAUSE
SONG: 'A Case Of You'
# Oh, I am a lonely painter
# I live in a box of paints... # APPLAUSE
# I'm frightened by the devil
# But I am drawn to those ones That ain't afraid
# Do you remember when you told me Love was touching souls?
# Well, surely you touched mine
# Cos part of you pours out of me
# In these lines from time to time
# You're in my blood like holy wine
# You taste so bitter and so sweet
# Oh, I could drink a case of you
# Ooh, darling
# And I would still be on my feet
# I'd still be on my feet
# Oh, you are in my blood Like holy wine
# You taste so bitter and so sweet
# Oh, I could drink a case of you
# Oh, darling
# I would still be on my feet
# I'd still be on my
# Feet. #
APPLAUSE Thank you.
# Oh, these minefields
# That I walk through... #
Lois, everyone! Oh, thank you so much. Thank you.
Look at that, everybody's on their feet.
I'm sorry. Oh, Lois!
I don't know why I'm crying. Tears of happiness?
Yeah, I just... The song, I really felt it, you know?
Yeah. Are you happy?
Yeah, I did what I could. Good, good. Good, good, good.
Sir Tom. You got me from the first note.
The sound of your voice is tremendous.
It was just beautiful.
Loved it. Thank you very much. Thank you.
APPLAUSE Will.
The potential you have on LeAnn's team
and what I just saw tonight is... wow!
APPLAUSE
And, LeAnn, you wanted to challenge her, didn't you?
I did. I love Lois. I love your voice.
It's so powerful as a storyteller, and you did that so beautifully.
Thank you so much.
I'm so happy to have you on my team. I'm so happy to be here.
Lois, everyone. Thank you.
APPLAUSE
So, we've seen three incredible performances from Team LeAnn,
but there's only room for one of her acts in the final.
So, let's welcome back her team, Lois, Conor and Deb Orah.
APPLAUSE
# Your love is spiritual
# When you hold me close
# Only heaven knows... #
So, LeAnn, as we know,
it's your first semi-final here at The Voice UK.
When your team walked out, you looked so happy.
I'm so proud of them. What is happening on the inside?
Oh, this is... I hate this part.
Each of you did an incredible job,
and you guys should be so proud that you're here
cos there's something special about each and everyone of you.
It is time for you to make your decision.Argh! No!
Ah!
AUDIENCE CALL OUT NAMES
LeAnn, please can you give me the name
of the singer you're taking through to the final?
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.
Just know I'm so proud of what you did tonight.
You've all grown so much. You're all incredible vocalists.
I unfortunately have to narrow it down to one,
and this breaks my heart, I know.
But the artist that I'm taking through to the final...
..is Deb Orah.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
# We're gonna live for
# We're gonna live for these days
# Tonight, tonight
# Remember
# Remember these days... #
Deb Orah, I thought your legs were gonna give way then.
They nearly did. I'm so grateful. Thank you so much.
Congratulations. DEB ORAH CHUCKLES
Thank you. She is a finalist.
Massive round of applause for Deb Orah.Thank you.
APPLAUSE
# Before we lose control Before the tables turn... #
SHE LAUGHS
The standard of talent in this team is incredible.
We wanna see both of you again. Of course.
Put your hands together one more time, please, for Lois and Conor.
APPLAUSE
# Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh These days. #
So, we have our first finalist, but who is gonna join them?
Our focus now turns to Team Will, and first up, it's ESNCE.
APPLAUSE
Hey! Hey!
What's up, girls?
# Friends wonder What is wrong with me... #
The room we were in for the Callbacks was incredible.
Waiting for Will to tell us who got through...
My heart was, like, doo-doo-doo-doo. Yeah.
And then, he said... ESNCE.
We all went, "Huh?" Yeah, literally, for ten seconds.
You three did an amazing job blending,
and I don't regret it now that you guys are two.
Big change. We're a duo now.
Alice has decided to leave the group.
It's gonna be a tough semi-final.
Do you know what song you're gonna bring it with?
BOTH: We Can't Be Friends. By Ariana Grande.
We're gonna sing a song called We Can't Be Friends?
Oh! It ain't like that, right?
Wanna make sure it wasn't, "Oh, you're out the group!"
No, it was picked before she had to leave.
OK, it's all love. All love.
Even though Alice is not with us any more, she still loves us,
we love her, and we're still gonna bring the ESNCE.
You gotta bring that poise of...
"We came this far and we didn't come here just to leave."
# Love, the love... #
This is our first official performance as a duo,
so there's a lot on the line.
There's a lot of symmetry involved,
intricate details that really matter, cos it's just us two.
That was awesome.
I know what it feels like to have had a member,
and then you go out, and it used to be something,
now it's something else.
I don't feel anything's missing.
I'm looking forward to ESNCE's performance in the semi-final,
but they just have to overcome their own doubts.
Being in the semi-final is a big thing.
We are one out of three acts that Will chose himself.
Yeah. So, yeah, it's a lot of pressure, but...
# GARAGE (man raps) # Yeah! Zip, zip
Pressure builds diamonds. Mm-hm!
Performing for a place in the final, it's ESNCE.
APPLAUSE
# I gotta know why can't you
# Why can't you let me go? #
SONG: 'We Can't Be Friends'
# I didn't think you'd understand me
# Oh-oh
# How could you ever
BOTH: # Even try?
# Ooh
# I don't wanna tiptoe But I don't wanna hide
# But I don't wanna feed This monstrous fire
# Just wanna let this story die
# And I'll be all right
# We can't be friends
# But I'd like to just pretend
# You cling to your papers and pens
# Wait until you like me again
# Gonna wait for your love Your love
# Lo-love Wait for your love
# Know that you made me
# It's something like a daydream
# But I feel so seen in the night
# So for now, it's
# Only me
# And maybe that's all I need
# So for now, it's only us
# And it's only me
# We can't be friends
# But I'd like to just pretend
# You cling to your papers and pens
# Wait until you like me again
# Oh-oh
# Lo-love
# Love
# Wait for your love
# I'll wait for your love
# Ooh
# Wait for your love. #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
# In case nobody told you today... #
ESNCE! ESNCE!
# In case nobody made you believe You're special... #
EMMA: ESNCE, everyone!
# I will always love you the same You're special... #
Well done. Now, that is the first time we have seen
you perform as a two-piece.
How does it feel?
I feel like we've bonded in so many ways...
100%. ..as a two-piece now.
So, yeah, it's fun. LeAnn, let's start with you.
To get thrown into the situation where three has now become two,
you guys nailed that, pulled it off completely.
You would have never known at all.
APPLAUSE
Thank you. Thank you.
Tom and Danny.
Yeah, you guys did amazingly well.
You can see that you've got so much respect for each other,
the way you look at each other when you sing.
You know, Danny and I have been singing harmonies
with each other for 20 years,
and it's really hard and it takes a lot of experience,
and it just feels like you guys have been doing it like this forever.
It was amazing.
Thank you. Thank you so much.
And Will.
I'm so proud of you guys. You guys sounded spectacular.
You've gone through a lot during the competition.
Most people would have buckled, you would feel the absence.
You should be proud of yourselves. You guys are awesome.
BOTH: Thank you so much.
CHEERING
Girls, thank you so much. ESNCE, everyone.
Thank you.
# Don't give up, stand your ground Don't give in, you deserve better
# Cos I know that you are right Where you're supposed to be... #
"ESNCE" there's something special there.
LEANN:You sense? I was saying "ESNCE", you know.
It doesn't matter, Will.
I was just talking to myself over here.
Oh, ESNCE! Yeah.
ESNCE, like "I sense" something special.
Yeah. I saw it.
That's good.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Welcome back to The Voice semi-final.
I am with Will. Erm, I have a question for you.
How would you feel about a double chair?
A double chair?
Yeah. You know, like that double chair?
Are you saying my booty is getting big or something?
LAUGHTER
No! Oh, OK.
But we made a great team last year. Oh, us? Me and you?
Yes! Oh, yeah. Come on, please, bring it.
Yes! Bring it.
Will.i.em. Let's do it.
Will.i... em? Will.i.em.
Yeah, that would be great. There you go.
Next question is, are you ready for your next act?
Been ready, born ready.
LAUGHTER
It's Storry.
APPLAUSE Yes!
Hey! Storry!
How are you? I like your jean outfit.
Thank you. I like yours, too.
You know, thank you. Yeah.
How did you think Callbacks went for you?
Good. I mean, thank you for choosing me.
The Callbacks, for me, were nerve-wracking.
# You don't have to be near me... #
It was definitely a huge relief
when he said my name, and I was very happy.
Storry.
APPLAUSE
Just three years ago, I moved to London with all these dreams,
not knowing anyone, and now I'm getting to sing
at the semi-final for The Voice, so it's incredible.
You're gonna be singing an original piece?
I am.
It's called Run.
Yeah, there's been times where I've sang that song
and I'm nearly in tears at the end because it's my life.
It's my blood, sweat and tears, actually, like, literally.
I wrote Run at a dark period in my life.
It was a therapeutic process,
a purge of sorts.
You know, having all these crazy hurdles
that I've had to work through,
I've had to restart so many times, and now I'm here.
# We all have a hunger... #
Storry is being extra brave
and courageous and ambitious and audacious.
The first semi-final with original song is pretty badass.
Thank you. And it's a powerful song.
Yeah, I'm hoping that it inspires people
because, you know, my story isn't one of victimisation.
It is a story of triumph and hope, and...
I'm here in front of you, which is... freaking awesome.
No, I'm here in front of you, which is freaking awesome.
I can't wait to see the coaches see what goes down in "herstory".
I would have said history, but it's HER story.
Hoping to be back in next week's final, it's Storry.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
# How could anything bad Ever happen? #
SONG: 'Run'
# I hope he loves you
# I hope he treats you right
# That you don't lose yourself In his shadow
# Hope he doesn't dim Your light... #
APPLAUSE
# Took you on a ride
# Till you're all cried out Dried out
# Strike now before it's too late
# Before you adopt the same fate
# As me
# Oh, run
# Run for your life
# Run, girl, run
# Run for your life... # APPLAUSE
# Oh, run
# Run for your life
# Run, girl, run
# Run for your life
# He'll make you cry He'll make you lie to yourself
# He'll have you wishing You were someone else
# Someone far away From the game he plays
# Hell, he leaves your heart
# On the floor
# Run for your life
# Run, girl, run
# Run for your life
# Run, girl, run
# Run for your life. #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
# I'm gonna swing From the chandelier... #
Storry, everyone!
# I'm gonna live
# Like tomorrow doesn't exist
# Like it doesn't exist... #
Just take that in a little bit.
Another very powerful original.
Are you pleased? I am. Good.
LeAnn. Hi, beauty.
Hi. First off, are you gonna just peel that dress off when you...?
I feel like it's gonna take
some baby oil or something to get that off.
I love when I hear an artist sing the material they've written
and you know it means so much to them.
I mean, when you're singing "run for your life",
I know you've lived that and I feel that.
APPLAUSE
Sir Tom.
I loved it. I mean, you got me in.
I was in there with you.
I could feel what you were doing.
Tremendous, honestly.
Thank you.
And Will.
You represented bravery in every sense of the word,
both in overcoming and then singing that song,
and then choosing to have an original song in the semi-final.
That's spectacular bravery. Thank you, Will.
Thank you so much, everyone. APPLAUSE
And thank you.
From beginning to end, everywhere in between,
you are exceptional.
Thank you so much. Put your hands together for Storry.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
I'm really happy that she did exactly what she wanted to do.
Yeah, definitely.
Yeah. To use this stage and use the band
and this platform to do a song like that, it was really powerful.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
There is just one more performance before Will makes his decision,
and singing next, it's Mic Lowry.
CHEERING
What's up? What's goin' on?
What's up, guys? ALL GREET WILL
How are you guys feeling?
Excited. Nervous, excited. All of them at once.
'To be at this stage of the competition is amazing.'
We just hope we can showcase what we do,
and, yeah, fingers crossed, we can make it through.
ALL: # Let me do What I do, babe... #
The Blind Auditions were crazy.
So intense, hearts pounding,
a lot of pressure, but we pulled through.
# Low-Low-Lowry. #
# You've tried everything... #
On the day of the Callbacks,
sometimes the nerves can get a little bit the better of you.
I mean, I know I was super nervous.
# Only you Make me do for love... #
I was so nervous when Will called us back into the room.
I wasn't confident. I didn't know if we were going through or not.
And then he said our name first.
The act that I'm taking through is...
..Mic Lowry.
I picked Mic Lowry because I vibe with them.
These guys are awesome.
# We were born to run away Oh, oh... #
For the semi-final,
they're singing Brandy & Monica's The Boy Is Mine,
and it's wow, dynamic.
The song was a little bit tricky for us at first
because, obviously, it's a female track.
So, you know, first of all, we wanted to change it
and make it comfortable for us.
You know, listening to your voices, I'm like, you guys make chords
for you to do all that freaking flipping and "flimming" and stuff.
It's freaking amazing. ALL: Thanks.
# That girl is mine
# Mine, mine, mine, mine Mine, mine, mine, mine. #
Woo!
My only feedback would be, mindful of the blends.
Without the mics, there's perfect blending.
But then, for some reason, on the mic,
yeah, you're losing the blend. OK.
(woman sings in country style) # Movin' on up
yeah, you're losing the blend. OK.
# There's always a part of me That's freaking out... #
We wanna make sure that we're in the final,
so we need to make sure that we show him what Mic Lowry's all about.
# And I know you can understand... #
EMMA: Will their performance take them to the final?
It's Mic Lowry.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

# That girl is mine That girl is mine
# I'm sorry that you You
# Seem to be confused Confused

# That girl is mine
# Must you do the things you do?
# You keep on acting like a fool
# You need to know it's me, not you
# If you didn't know it Girl, it's true
# I think that you should realise
# And you should try To understand why
# She's a part of my life
# Know it's killing me inside
# You can say what you wanna say
# What you have, you cannot take
# From the truth, you can't escape

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Hell, yeah! Hell, yeah!
EMMA: Mic Lowry!
Oh, boys, you just took me all the way back to the '90s.
Whoop, whoop, whoop!
How do the semi-finals feel?
Good, you know. Incredible.
What's this?
I've got no words.
You've just got feels, you've just got feels.
LeAnn, let's start with you. Wow, that was incredible!
I was excited watching that performance.
You guys' harmonies are incredible. I loved that.
ALL: Thank you so much.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Tom.It was so good, I forgot that it was on this show.
You forgot you were at work.
I haven't worked since 1962. LAUGHTER
You were all in it together, and it was fantastic.
Tom and Danny.
Oh, boys, how good is it being in a band?
It's the best. I love everything that you guys do.
You've got the whole package. You've got everything.
Will.
I only could imagine what it's gonna be like when you guys tour.
Travelling around the world,
singing songs in front of, like, screaming fans.
You guys are really awesome. CHEERING
Well done. Mic Lowry!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Love those boys, they're great. I love them.
How are you gonna choose?
So, I just don't know which one is gonna go to the final.
Tough choice. Yeah. Yeah.
# This is The Voice. #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Welcome back to The Voice semi-final.
So, after three epic performances,
the time has come for Will to choose his finalists.
Good luck with that one!
So, let's welcome back the contenders from Team Will.
Give it up for ESNCE, Storry and Mic Lowry.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
So, Will...
how are you feeling about this decision?
Confused. Mm-hm.
In a conundrum. Mm-hm.
Perplexed. Yep.
Er... yeah.
It's time for you to make your decision.
OK, here we go.
AUDIENCE CALL OUT NAMES
Damn!
Here we go. OK, OK, OK, OK, OK, OK, OK.
Damn! This is so freaking heart-wrenching.
It is. I don't envy you at all.
Out of all the times... Like, this is 12 years,
and this is the hardest one out of all of them.
But the person that I'm gonna take through is, um...
AUDIENCE CALL OUT NAMES
..is Storry.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE # I'm gonna build castles
# From the rubble of your love From the rubble of your love... #
Congratulations!
How does it feel to be a Voice UK finalist?
It's incredible. Like, thank you so much.
Thank you, Will. I know how hard that decision was for you.
Thank you. Thank you.
Congratulations. Well done.
We'll see you next week. Storry, everyone.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
I am so sorry to all of you
because you've been absolutely fantastic.
Have you had a good time with us?
Absolutely. This has been such a great experience,
and I'm so happy to see Storry, who deserves it,
to go through, you know? It could have been anyone.
APPLAUSE
We are so sad to see you boys go as well. Who wants the mic?
Go on, Ben. Go on, Ben, you do this one.
Erm, I was just happy that we gave our best in that performance.
It was tough competition, do you know what I mean?
It's just been boss to be a part of the process.
APPLAUSE Well, thank you all so much.
Please put your hands together for Mic Lowry and ESNCE.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
# You're my all and more
# But I need room to
# Breathe... #
I love Storry. She's an incredible artist.
Storry came with a story and, like, "This is my pain."
Two acts have reserved their place in next week's final,
and now we need two more to join them.
So let's see what Team Tom has in store.
First up, it's Ace.
APPLAUSE
Hello, Ace. How are you feeling?
Good. Excited.
In the Blind Auditions, you did an Aretha Franklin song,
so do you like an old style? I do.
I think you told me during my Blind, actually, that I've got an old soul.
That's right. And I feel like that shows in the music.
Watching Ace's Blind Audition was terrifying.
# Say, say you do
# Oh, then, baby... #
She was fine, she wasn't nervous.
# Baby, don't you know that I... #
She got four turns. It was awe-inspiring.
My mum has a lot of faith in me,
and she's really my rock and my heart.
# Dream... #
At the Callbacks, Ace was wonderful.
As far as Hannah was concerned, Ace has already won it.
She's a superstar... Yeah.
..quite frankly.
I'm really excited to see what she becomes.
When you put me through, I almost fell off that stage.
I can't lie. Really?
So, is there a song that you would like to try?
I'd Rather Go Blind by Etta James.
Yeah, I think so.
Let's give it a go.
# Something told me
# It was over... #
It's powerful.
Shows your voice off really well, I think.
Thank you.
With all that Ace has been through,
I think she can draw on that to express herself.
As long as she doesn't overcook it, it'll be great.
You have a way with you when you underplay it,
when you get more into yourself, rather than try to...
Attack it. Yeah. OK.
Tonight, I'm singing for all the trans girls and boys out there
who wanna see a part of themselves on TV.
It's very validating to know that you've come this far,
but the pressure is on.
I've gotta give it everything I've got.
# Now I am invincible... #
Singing for a place in the final, it's Ace.
# Now I am invincible
# Perfect storm. #
# Something told me... #
APPLAUSE # It was over
# When I saw you And that girl talking
# Something deep down in my soul
# Said, "Cry, girl"
# When I saw you and that girl Walking around
# Can't you see I love you so much
# That I just don't wanna Watch you leave me, baby?
# Most of all, I just don't I just don't wanna be free, no
# Baby, baby, baby... # CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
# I'd rather be blind, boy
# Than to see you walk away
# Walk away from me, yeah
# When the reflection in the glass
# That I held to my lips now, baby
# Revealed these tears That are on my face
# I was just, I was just
# I was just sitting here thinking
# Of your kiss and your warm
# Embrace. #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Ace, everybody!
WARBLING: Ace! Yes!
How are you feeling? Oh, wild!
I tripped a few times, but it was fun.
LAUGHTER I didn't see you trip.
You styled that out perfectly, perfectly.
LeAnn.
The performance was incredible.
WILL:Yeah. I just loved watching you.
You were captivating, and just those hits were so perfect.
And then, the vocals were stunning.
I watched you the whole time, could not take my eyes off you.
APPLAUSE
Will.
When you first started singing, I'm like, "Wow! Damn!"
You're a show-woman, you're a powerhouse,
and you brought it.
Thank you. That was awesome.
APPLAUSE Thank you, Will.
Tom. Yes. Well, that was lovely.
As I told you when I first heard you sing it,
you could do half that, and it's still great.
You've got so much talent.
Now, I know you can fly even more than that,
but it's to try and keep it contained, and you did.
You really did a great job there.
Thank you.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
One more time for Ace.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
I love seeing her perform.
She's so captivating. Yeah.
Like, yeah, I love that kind of confidence and energy.
TOM FLETCHER:She owns the stage. Yeah, for sure.
Next up for Team Tom, it's Hollie Peabody.
# Sometimes you just got to say Oh, well, oh, well... #
How are you? Good.
So, what have you been up to? Straight back to work.
You work at a prison, right? Yes, I do.
Working in the prison service on a day-to-day basis
is so wildly different from all of this.
# To love, love
# To love... #
From not even expecting to get a chair turn at the Blind Auditions
to being in the semi-finals is wild.
Everything feels very surreal at the moment.
So, how do you feel it went, the Callbacks?
To be completely honest, I sort of blacked out a bit
when it was happening.
# Every time I try to fly
# I fall without my wings
# I feel so small... #
I did not expect to get through at Callbacks.
Hollie.
APPLAUSE
I've never really done performances in anywhere big.
I only ever really perform to myself in my bedroom mirror,
so something like St George's Hall was insane.
Well, from now on, it's gonna be even bigger than that.
No pressure! No pressure.
You just think about being in that bedroom, looking in the mirror...
Mm-hm. ..and sing to yourself. Yeah.
So, Hollie, your semi-final song will be
I Wanna Dance With Somebody, Whitney Houston.
Big song! Yeah.
It's such an immense song that everybody knows,
so I feel like there's a lot of pressure to do it justice.
'When you slow something down, it takes on a new life,
'and that's what Hollie does to this song.'
Yeah! That's lovely, that.
(woman sings in gospel style) # Movin' on up
# I wanna feel the heat With somebody... #
The whole thing is just very honest, very real.
You're coming across loud and clear.
That's what we like. That's all we need.
Making it to the semi-finals is surreal.
# Go let your true colours show... #
I came into this on the assumption
that I wasn't even gonna get a chair turn,
so when I walk out on that stage tonight,
I'm gonna give my best performance yet.
APPLAUSE
EMMA: Singing for a place in the final, it's Hollie Peabody.
# Glow, baby, glow
# Go, baby, go get 'em. #
SONG: 'I Wanna Dance With Somebody'
# Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
# I wanna feel the heat With somebody
# Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
# With somebody who loves me
# The clock strikes upon the hour
# And the sun begins to fade
# Still enough time to figure out
# How to chase my blues away
# I've been all right up till now
# It's the light of day That shows me how
# When the night falls
# My lonely heart calls
# Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
# I wanna feel the heat With somebody
# Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
# With somebody who loves me
# Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
# I wanna feel the heat With somebody
# Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody
# With somebody who loves me
# Don't you wanna dance?
# Say you wanna dance Don't you wanna dance?
# Don't you wanna dance?
# Say you wanna dance Don't you wanna dance?
# Don't you wanna dance?
# Say you wanna dance Don't you wanna dance?
# With somebody who loves
# Me. #
Yeah! All right.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Keep it going for Hollie, everyone.
# I got the power in me-e-e-e... #
That was beautiful. Thank you.
How did it feel? Oh...
LAUGHTER
Let's go to LeAnn first.
I love that version of that song, and there's this really tender part
of your voice, and it really drew me in.
So, yeah, good job, yeah.
Thank you. APPLAUSE
I love that version. I thought it was great.
What do you think, Tom? Yeah, I thought it was great.
I've not heard that song done like that before,
so it felt completely unique, and you made it your own.
Thank you so much.
Woo! Woo-woo!
Well, I love the honesty in your voice,
I love the sound of your voice, so I think you did a wonderful job.
Thank you so much. Thank you, Tom.
And thank you, Hollie. Absolutely incredible, as always.
Keep it going, please, for Hollie.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
# It's a jungle, yeah
# Our thorns are buried deep But we see beauty in our dreams... #
They have a really cool... cool tone to their voice.
Yes. I like it.
It's a very honest way that it was performed.
Mm-hm. You know, it's real.
It comes across as real to me. Amazing.
# This is The Voice. #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Welcome back to the semi-final of The Voice.
There is just one more performance before Sir Tom makes his decision.
And singing next, it's Billy & Louie.
APPLAUSE
BOTH: # Safe from harm
# I wanna run to you... #
Billy & Louie are unique because they're twins,
and they both sing really well.
# Through... #
The Callbacks were amazing. We were very nervous.
But I think it all paid off in the end.
The second act that I'm gonna be taking
through to the semi-final is...
Billy & Louie. Ah!
It was a crazy sort of turn of events,
but, you know, it was so exciting to hear our names.
So, what have you been up to?
Been busy with our big choir. They've just won an award recently.
Oh, great. Yeah, it's really cool.
We love arranging music and sort of working out
all the harmonies and stuff.
It's definitely a surreal experience to be semi-finalists in The Voice,
and to be on Team Tom as well.
It's just a crazy thing. I still haven't gotten over it.
OK, the song I'd like you to try and sing
is Freedom! '90 by George Michael.
Oh, nice!
# I was every little hungry Schoolgirl's pride and joy
# And I guess it was enough For me... #
'I reckon Sir Tom's got this vision that we could be the next Wham!'
I do. I'm George, obviously.
I'm George. I think I've got the better hair.
We can both be George, it's fine.
Does it feel good to you? Yeah, I like that, actually.
Cos it sounds great.
And the harmony when you come together,
it sounds really good.
It's up-tempo, which is something
we've not had as much experience with.
Ah. So, it's quite nice to try.
Yeah, just enjoy it.
# Green light, tonight... #
Billy & Louie, being two people,
there's more involved,
and they've gotta get those harmonies right on the money.
There's a few sort of twin perfection bits
that we wanna make super perfect.
Yeah!
It's an uplifting song.
It really is, yeah. And you've gotten into it.
In our semi-final performance,
we're going to add more energy than we have done before.
Being this far through in the competition,
I can't let you down.
I've gotta do my best. I've gotta get everything right
so I don't mess it up for you.
And hopefully not fall down the stairs.
Hoping their performance will send them to the final,
it's Billy & Louie.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
SONG: 'Freedom! '90'
# Heaven knows I was just a young boy
# Didn't know What I wanted to be... #
APPLAUSE # Oh, yeah
# I was every little hungry Schoolgirl's pride and joy
# And I guess it was enough for me
# Mm-hmm
# But today the way I play the game Is not the same, no way
BOTH: # Think I'm gonna get me So happy... #
Harmony's nice. # Oh, yeah
# I think there's something You should know
# I think it's time I told you so
# There's something Deep inside of me
# There's someone else I've got to be
# Take back your picture in a frame
# Take back your singing in the rain
# I just hope you understand
BOTH: # Sometimes the clothes Do not make the man
# All we have to do now
# Is take these lies
# And make them true Somehow
# All we have to see
# Is that I don't belong to you And you don't belong to me
# Oh, yeah
# I think there's something You should know
# I think it's time I stopped the show
# There's something Deep inside of me
# There's someone else I've got to be
# Take back your picture In the frame
# Don't think That I'll be back again
# I just hope you understand
# Sometimes the clothes
BOTH: # Do not make the man
# Yeah, yeah
# You gotta give for what
# Give for what you take
# Freedom, yeah, yeah
# Oh Yeah, yeah
# Oh, oh
# You gotta give for what you
# Ta-a-a-a-ake. #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
# Don't take much to start me
# We can just dance to this
# Push up on my body... #
EMMA: Billy & Louie!
I mean...
this is something new to see from you two.
Tom and Danny, let's start with you, then.
What I love is that quite often with duos,
there's one who's stronger than the other one
and kind of carries the other one, and I think with you two...
LAUGHTER
Did you just do what I think you just did?
No, no, I didn't do that, Tom.
I did not do anything. Thanks, Danny. Cheers, mate.
With you, you're both equally as strong as each other,
but also, you don't sound the same.
There's a definite difference between your voices
that really complement each other. They blend amazingly, don't they?
You blend really well. It was great. I loved it.
Really enjoyed it. BOTH: Thank you so much.
LEANN:You guys are adorable.
I loved when I saw this different side of you when you came down,
cos there was, like, some... You got a little funky.
Great song choice. Super fun to see you guys this way.
Good job, yeah.
Thank you very much, LeAnn. Thank you.
You know, it was really, really great.
I loved it, the audience loved it.
You lifted the room up, and that's what it was meant to do.
Thank you very much. Thank you.
Well done to both of you. Thank you very much.
It's the first time we've seen you bust some moves.
Can you call that a move? Yeah!
There was definitely some hip action happening.
Are you happy? Oh, I'm super happy.
Yeah, it was just really fun. We had a great time, didn't we?
Yeah, we love a bit of George as well.
Aren't they lovely? They're so cute.
So lovely. Put your hands together one more time for Billy & Louie.
Thank you so much. Well done.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
All right, Tom, what you feeling? Yeah, well, it's up to me now.
They did great. They did great.
They were fun. Yeah.
They really came together, I thought, brilliantly.
Do you think you know?
Yeah, I think so.
It's time for a big coach decision, so let's welcome back,
from Team Tom, Ace, Hollie, and Billy & Louie.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
MUSIC: 'Unholy War' by Jacob Banks
So, Tom, as you well know,
only one of your brilliant singers can make it through to the final.
How are you feeling about the decision?
Terrible. LAUGHTER
No, I mean, it's the decision-making that's making me feel terrible.
It's going to be very difficult,
but I want you all to know that you all did a wonderful job.
APPLAUSE
Right, Tom, it's time for you to make your decision.
AUDIENCE CALL OUT NAMES
OK.
The act that I'm taking through...
AUDIENCE CALL OUT NAMES
..is Billy & Louie.
CHEERING
Billy & Louie, congratulations.
Thank you. Thank you very much.
Surprised? We're just so happy
doing, like, a nice performance that we're happy with.
We're like, "That'll do." That'll do us.
That's all right. And then, anything else is like, "What?"
Yeah. I love that you did that in time.
It was perfect.
Congratulations, well done. Thank you.
We will see you in the final. Thank you very much. Thank you.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
It's just never easy, is it, when you're at this point?
No. Because your teams kind of go from ten all the way down to three,
and it's such a hard choice.
Have you enjoyed it?
Absolutely.
It's been a life-changing and truly memorable experience.
We've loved having you. Thank you so much, Ace.
Thanks for having me.
And, Hollie, have you had a good time?
I've had such a good time. Thank you so much for the opportunity.
Put your hands together one more time for Ace and Hollie.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Well done. We loved the twins. I thought they were great.
Yeah. Yeah, really good.
Good choice.
Coaches, guess what.
It's competition time!
COACHES CHEER
We are giving away our biggest cash prize yet.

We're also gonna send you off on holiday to Universal Orlando Resort.
CHEERING Yeah.
But you've got to be in it to win it,
so here's all the details you need. Best of luck.
You and three guests could be heading
# This is The Voice. #
Welcome back to The Voice semi-final.
Three acts have made it through so far,
and there is just one space left.
It is down to Team Tom & Danny to fill it,
and first up, it's Kyra.
# Once there was a... #
Kyra's song at the Blinds was amazing.
It was just a real moment.
# To get back home... #
She really excites us because she's got raw talent.
A real haunting, silky voice.
How are you feeling now?
The Callbacks are done, you're through.
Yeah, just can't believe that youse put me through.
I'm so grateful.
Kyra was convinced she was going home.
# Search your heart
# And search your soul... #
So saying her name...
Kyra.
..I could just see this pure kind of shock.
That was beautiful.
We just want to give her the confidence that she needs.
What would you like to sing in the semi-final?
The Impossible Dream by Roberta Flack.
I think that's a great choice. Cool.
The song is about overcoming struggles,
so I definitely relate to that, given my illness.
But it is a challenge.
# The unreachable... #
Aw.
That wasn't very good.
Stop putting yourself down. Don't put yourself down.
Hey, we don't want any self-doubt. If you just let that go,
the world is your oyster with your voice. Yeah.
Kyra just has to believe in herself.
She needs to flick off that little devil on her shoulder
that's telling her she ain't good enough.
Put us there. Going, "You're amazing! Believe!"
# Now's the time, now's the time Now's the time, now's the time... #
Wow! Woohoo!
That was amazing. Good to see you.
It's like a different person. It makes us so happy to see that.
I'm a new woman.
I woke up one morning and I was like,
"I'm in the semi-final."
I'm gonna stop being silly and I'm just gonna go for it.
You can really tell she's gone away
and got herself into a much better headspace,
and it completely transformed her performance.
Kyra 2.0 is gonna smash it on the night.
# Now's the time, now's the time Now's the time... #
EMMA: Singing for a place in the final, it's Kyra.
You've got this.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
# Woo, woo
# Now's the time. #
SONG: 'The Impossible Dream'
# To dream
# The impossible dream
# To fight
# The unbeatable foe
# To bear
# With unbearable sorrow
# To run
# Where the brave dare not go
# This is my quest
# To follow that star
# No matter how hopeless
# No matter how far
# To be willing to march
# Into hell... # APPLAUSE
# For a heavenly cause
# To dream
# The impossible dream
# And to reach
# Try and reach
# The unreachable
# Star. #
Come on, Kyra! Woo!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
# Little did I know, did I know
# Oh, little did I know That it could feel like this... #
Wow! Kyra, everyone!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
That was breathtaking. Thank you.
Do you know how good it was?
I was, like, passing out halfway through,
so I don't know how it went. LAUGHTER
APPLAUSE Well, you smashed it.
Thank you. Tom.
Well, that was beautiful. Thank you.
I sang that song myself.
That's not an easy song to sing. And I love what you did with it.
You did it in a way that I've never heard it sung like that before.
I loved what you did.
Thank you so much. APPLAUSE
Will.
That was, er, extraordinary.
Um, the lyric, the performance,
the truth in how you sung it...
Wow, inspirational. Thank you.
Congrats. Thank you.
APPLAUSE
Tom and Danny.
We're just so proud of you.
Thank you. When you first entered this competition,
you were full of self-doubt.
It's just so beautiful to see you out of that.
And not only are you singing well, the energy from you is so different,
and we just feel so proud, don't we?
So, so proud.
It's so moving. Your connection with that song, which...
Kyra chose to sing that song, by the way,
and it was such the right decision. That was so powerful.
Congratulations. That was incredible.
Thank you so much.
Kyra, how does it make you feel when you hear comments like that?
It's been incredible. It's changed me, like, for the better,
even outside of singing, so...
Yeah, I've just had a good time.
You're incredible. Thank you so much.
Put your hands together one more time for Kyra.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE # I always believed
# It was waiting for me... #
Well done. Amazing!
When those words started to come out of her mouth, I was, like,
"Oh, no, I'm gonna lose it right now."
Yeah. Good job, you guys.
TOM FLETCHER:All right, next, we have Olivia.
Now, Olivia is the youngest in the whole competition.
And I used Tom's hand to push the button. Yeah.
I remember that one. We're excited.
I don't think we took Olivia through the Callbacks.
I think Olivia took herself through them.
# There's nowhere
# Unless you're there... #
She just did the most incredible performance.
There was no way she wasn't going through.
# You-ou-ou. #
So, if you could sing any song, what would you choose?
The song Alone by Heart, cos it means a lot to me.
Me and my dad used to watch The Voice all the time.
My dad was like, "That'll be you one day,
"and this is the song you should sing."
It's hard cos he passed away last year,
but I wanna make him proud.
That's a great reason to sing it.
Having an emotional connection to the song
is gonna make all the difference.
# How do I get you alone? #
Ooh! Hmm, hmm. That's high, isn't it?
How are we feeling about that high? Do you think we can get there?
Yeah.
'It's definitely gonna be a challenge.'
I wanna hit every note perfect.
Instead of going... # How do... #
..it's the opposite. You wanna go... # How do...#
And it relaxes you. And it looks cool.
If she gets like this, it's not gonna come out the same,
whereas if she stays relaxed, she's gonna blow your socks off.
Woo!
I've got to work really hard
to get through to that final.
It's a really big song, and I'm a bit nervous,
like my voice will go on me on the night.
# Oh, oh
# Now I know What I'm fighting for... #
I hope they see what my dad used to see in me
and push me to that next level.
# To the stars... #
I'm very proud.
And I've gonna start crying. Sorry.
We've been on such a journey.
Seeing her on that stage where she belongs,
I'm just so excited.
Olivia did amazingly today.
(woman sings in falsetto) # Nothing can sto-o-op meeee!
Olivia did amazingly today.
Feels like she's really done her homework
since we saw her round the piano.
Yeah, she's an absolute powerhouse. She's gonna be unbelievable.
# Now I know What I'm fighting for... #
EMMA: Hoping to make it to the final, it's Olivia.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Time to show off.
# Now I know What I'm fighting for. #
Love you, Olivia.
SONG: 'Alone'
# I hear the ticking of the clock
# I'm lying here
# The room's pitch dark... # APPLAUSE
# I wonder where you are tonight
# No answer on the telephone
# And the night goes by so very slow
# Oh, I hope That it won't end, though
# Alone
# Till now I've always got by on my own
# I never really cared Until I met you
# And now it chills me to the bone
# How do I get you alone?
# Whoa-oa-oa-oa
# Till now I always got by on my own
# I never really cared Until I met you
# And now it chills me to the bone
# How do I get you alone?
# Alone
# Alone. #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
# I won't give up I won't give up... #
Amazing!
That was amazing!
Yes, Olivia!
That was just insane!
You have always wanted to sing that song on the show, haven't you?
Yeah. How did it feel?
Just like a dream come true. Good. Good, good, good.
Go, Olivia! Will.
So, first you come in all, like, shy and stuff,
all humble.
Then, bam!
Took it to a totally next level.
And then right when we thought that was the last level, bam,
you hit us with another level. LAUGHTER
That's, like, triple levels.
You're a little firecracker. Thank you.
I love it. Seriously, so much energy,
and that note, I was, like, "Damn!"
Wow, you blew me away. You blew me back in my seat.
That was great.
APPLAUSE
Gentlemen.
Olivia, firstly, you just made your dad so proud, honestly.
CHEERING
What a moment.
We heard it in rehearsals, obviously,
but you just took it to another level tonight. Stepped up.
I'm so, so proud of you.
From someone who's 18, to stand on that stage and own it like that,
it's just unbelievable.
Thank you. What he said. Yes!
Are you proud?
Very proud. You should be.
Put your hands together for Olivia.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Amazing! Well done.
You smashed it. Smashed it!
She just keeps pulling it out the bag.
She shocks us. We were never expecting that.
Who do we have next? We ain't finished yet.
No. Whew!
I'm so excited.
Welcome back to The Voice.
We have just one more performance
before our final decision of the night.
So, what are we waiting for?
From Team Tom & Danny, it's Ava.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Ava, how are you feeling confidence-wise now?
Blind Audition, I was such a nervous wreck.
# Damn your eyes... #
We were so surprised that she was nervous cos of how good she was.
I think the nerves just come from her lack of experience.
You know, she's only sung to her dogs that she grooms.
# Stay, damn your eyes. #
Yes!
I guess, you know, coming through to the Callbacks
and having my name shouted out...
Ava. ..it was a massive confirmation.
Don't get me wrong, I'm still extremely nervous.
The nerves are always there,
but the openness that I get to feel here
has made me feel really comfortable.
I am so excited about your song choice.
No pressure, but this is one of my favourite songs of all time.
Oh, goodness me! God Only Knows by The Beach Boys.
'Ava's pure class.'
She puts emotion into everything, and that makes her exciting.
What's really beautiful about her is that she doesn't know
how unique her talent is.
All you've gotta do now is go away and see what your dogs think.
Dog only knows. # Dog only knows. #
# Oh, oh... #
Ooh.
The bits that I think distract from what you're doing
is where you move and walk. Yeah.
Cos I can see you thinking about it.
Yeah, I was a bit worried about walking.
Yeah, like, "Where's the edge of the stage?"
I'm just a little nine-to-five dog groomer.
I'm not used to having to move and sing.
I would just start at the mic.
It makes the whole audience lean in to watch you.
To be honest with you, that's probably more comfortable with me.
This is you, and it has to be you. Yeah.
# I'm back in my body... #
Ava, from singing to the dogs,
and then, to be standing on the stage in the semi-final
is just incredible, and I'm very, very proud.
Wow!
We cannot wait for the other coaches to see Ava's performance.
If Ava can make the audience feel how we feel,
then it's gonna be an incredibly special moment.
# This time I know I'm fighting... #
EMMA: Hoping to sing her way to the final, it's Ava.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
# I'm back in my body, oh. #
SONG: 'God Only Knows'
# I may not always love you
# As long as there are Stars above you... #
APPLAUSE # You'll never need to doubt it
# I'll make you so sure about it, oh
# God only knows what I'd be Without you
# If you should ever leave me
# Well, life would still go on Believe me
# The world could show nothing to me
# So what good would living do me?
# So God only knows what I'd be Without you, oh
VOCALISES
Woo!
# Ooh, ooh
# Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
# So God only knows what I'd be Without you
# Oh, yeah
# So God only knows what I'd be Without you
# Oh, yeah, yeah
# I said God only knows
# What I'd be
# Without you. #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
# Let it all go Let it all out now... #
Yes, Ava!
Oh, my God.
That was insane.
I can't speak.
That was so beautiful. Thank you.
That was the first dance at my wedding.
Aw. So, I'm, like, "Oh!"
That's amazing. And that was phenomenal.
Aw, thank you so much. That's all I ever have to say.
LeAnn.
That was incredible.
I felt every ounce of every note that you sang.
You are really a special artist.
I hope you are starting to realise that, if you don't yet.
You just moved me. Yeah, that was incredible.
APPLAUSE
Tom. You made the song your own.
You did it the way you felt it,
and I loved that.
You know, I'm sure everybody felt the same way.
It was great.
Thank you so much. Thank you. APPLAUSE
Unbelievable.
You and that song just does something to me.
That was incredible.
The emotion that's poured down that microphone,
to make us two, like, tear up...
We're speechless cos you are very, very special.
Wow. She's shaking.
I can't tell you how much she's shaking.
It's just been incredible being able to sing such a powerful song,
and I'm so grateful that you can understand where I'm coming from.
You smashed it. Ava, everyone. Thank you so much.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Nope.
LAUGHTER

but the two that we don't take through to the final,
