Blind Auditions 1: Highlights The Voice LOUDER

The Voice is back, and

so is

The Voice...

BOTH: Louder.

Where'd you get that megaphone from?

It's mine. Don't be jealous!

This

is the place to be to catch all

the best bits from the show

and all of the exclusive action from backstage.

For example, who knew Will uses a tea towel as a codpiece?

WOLF WHISTLE

But first, let's take a trip through

the highlights of the first round

of the blind auditions.

So,

we’ve got ourselves a shiny new series with new talent, new twists

and new coaches.

The indie boy and the Aussie girl joined the Welsh legend

and the man from planet Am to fill those four famous spinny chairs.

Oh, my God!

'We’ve already had tears and tantrums.'

I think will did that just BLEEP me off.

'The coaches have got flirty...'

All I can say is, we would have a good time together.

AUDIENCE: Whoo!

'..and occasionally shirty.'

I'll fight for you if you are on my team.

I will fight for you right now.

'And talking of coaches,

'our very first artist tried his luck by covering a Kylie classic...'

# La la la la

# La la la la

# Oooh... #

'And just for good measure, he threw in another Kylie lyric...'

Wow! Wow, wow, wow!

'So, after Lee sang a Minogue song and namechecked another,

'the nation held its breath...which coach would he possibly choose?'

Um...I think I'm going to go with Kylie.

Aah!

'Wow. We were Shocked(!)

'Shocked by the power. Ooh, I’m doing it now.

'Lee Glasson isn’t just a talented singer.

'He has talents off stage too.'

I've been told I do a pretty mean impression of a horse.

Check it out.

'If there was a show called The Horse, Lee would clean up.

'One more time then, Shergar.'

HE WHINNIES

'Next up, Christina Marie. Small shorts, big lungs.'

# ..close one more door

# I don't wanna hurt any more... #

'Kylie played the card none of the other coaches could use.'

I know what it's like being a 20-year-old girl.

'But Ricky has a more cunning technique.'

I'd love to hear

you sing again,

and again, and again,

and again, and again, and again, and again...

VOICE ECHOES: ..and again, and again...

'All right, Ricky - we get it! Please stop it.

'It did seem to work, though.'

MUSIC: "I Predict A Riot" by Kaiser Chiefs

'Next up, Danielle Chevannes.

'Sadly she didn't get a turn, but she brought her amazing daughter,

'who’s following in her mum’s footsteps.'

Hi!

AUDIENCE: Hi!

Do you want

to sing a little song?

- No. - Bit shy?

- I

mostly want to draw.

- You want to draw.

LAUGHTER

- Marlin, I would like to... - Marlin?! Marvin!

# If you don't know me by now... # 'Marlin?

'Who's he?' # If you don't know me... #

And it's exciting to meet Marvin today,

isn't it?

Yeah!

# Oh, she's up all night till the sun

# I'm up all night to get some... #

'"There once was a girl called McLuckie

'"Who came on The Voice, sang Get Lucky

'"She played on a harp

'"Will thought she was sharp

'"Then McLuckie came over star-strucky."

'Uh?! I’m here all week.

'Eventually she picked Will.

'And boy, did he harp on about it?!'

# I'm glad that she's on my team

# Aw, shucks, we gonna win it... #

'And now it's time for a commercial break.'

I love being a coach on The Voice, but

now you can be a home coach

and play along with your friends.

Download the brand-new app to

play

the home coach game.

You can listen to exclusive previews and decide

whether or not to turn,

rate performances and see

who other

home coaches turn for.

So, get the app and you can see who else

is spinning around on their sofa.

Sorry about that - they make me say it.

# What I want you got

# But it might be hard to handle... #

'Tom Jones and fellow Welshy Tara Lewis shared a magic moment.'

SHE SQUEALS

All right, love?

All right, Tom?

It's

very good...

I'm not going to lie to you, Tom, I feels emotional.

LAUGHTER

APPLAUSE

I'll give you the best night of your life.

Wow!

'Very cheeky!

'But sadly her charms didn’t sway any of the coaches.'

Tidy.

'So Tara might be a dead ringer for Nessa,

'but we want to know if you’ve any lookie-likies

'that you’d like to share with us.

'The Voice Louder needs you!

'Post your pics and videos to your preferred social media platform,

'and we might just feature the best.'

# So don't go... #

'Next to face the back of the chairs came Ryan Green.

'And sadly, those chairs never turned

'even for his last-minute burst of a Cher song.'

Can't we turn back time?

# If I could find a way... #

'No. Moving on...'

# I'm sexy and I know it... #

'16-year-old

Beth McCarthy from York

'managed something no other artist has achieved.

'She discovered the truth behind the coaches' toilet talents.'

Oh, mine's one...

- Like this.... - Yours is one massive...

TOILET FLUSHES Yeah. That's right. And you're done.

That's crazy.

Kylie, have you got a toilet?

LAUGHTER

No.

# Please don't let me be misunderstood... #

'Tom has seen it all and sung it all,

'so it takes something pretty special to bring a tear to his eye.

'But Sally Barker has that something special.'

# She's the one... #

It

was just full of emotion.

It was so beautiful.

- Thank you. - That I couldn't help but...

APPLAUSE

'High praise indeed, and Sally became Tom’s first lady.'

# Holding, holding, holding on... #

'And finally, Leo got Kylie all in a fluster.'

Yeah!

'Kylie forgot the rules of the show

'and seemed to think you won an artist

'by playing hide and seek with them.

'We can see you, Kylie.

'So, which coach did Leo go for?'

So, Tom, you're a legend.

Come on!

But you've got to excuse me, cos I’ve fancied Charlene since I was like...

Yeah!

'Well that’s a surprise(!)'

Get out the way!

# You and me always... #

Well, that was a lovely way to end the show.

Aww.

Don't worry, we'll be back next week with

plenty more backstage action.
