The difference between this show and all other talent shows

0:00:020:00:05

is that you hear the voice first.

0:00:050:00:07

It doesn't matter what you look like,

0:00:070:00:09

you are going to get a shot at this.

0:00:090:00:11

It's about vocals and being signed on talent.

0:00:110:00:14

I'm ready to meet an artist and we create things that make them stars.

0:00:140:00:20

Tonight...

0:00:210:00:23

the competition steps up a gear.

0:00:230:00:25

..as the coaches fight it out for the UK's best voice.

0:00:250:00:28

-We are going to beat these people.

-We have a mission - to take our singers and win.

0:00:280:00:32

Everybody is in it to win it.

0:00:320:00:33

Pick me!

0:00:340:00:36

Four of the biggest music stars on the planet are on a mission

0:00:380:00:41

to discover and develop the UK's next great voice.

0:00:410:00:44

Will.i.am. Worldwide music producer and founder of the Black Eyed Peas.

0:00:460:00:52

Will.i.am speaks for himself.

0:00:520:00:56

He is an all-rounder, writes songs, sings, raps and does production.

0:00:560:01:00

Jessie J, pop's freshest talent with a double platinum-selling debut album and six top ten hits.

0:01:000:01:08

She is a strong character, she's young, but she knows what she wants.

0:01:090:01:13

I don't want to use the word "swag", but she has cool swag.

0:01:130:01:17

Danny O'Donoghue.

0:01:170:01:20

Songwriter and frontman of stadium-filling,

0:01:200:01:23

chart stopping band The Script.

0:01:230:01:24

Danny is a songwriter, producer.

0:01:240:01:28

He is a fresh Irish singer,

0:01:280:01:30

so we have a thing in common, we are Celts.

0:01:300:01:33

And the legendary Sir Tom Jones.

0:01:330:01:36

Six decades in the business and 100 million records sold worldwide.

0:01:360:01:42

Tom Jones has been around for ever.

0:01:420:01:44

He's such a powerhouse of the industry.

0:01:440:01:47

That dude has history. He's toured with Sammy Davis Jr - history.

0:01:470:01:52

This is how it works.

0:01:520:01:54

If a coach likes what they hear, they hit their button...

0:01:560:01:59

..turn round and secure that voice for their team.

0:02:000:02:03

Whoa!

0:02:030:02:05

But if more than one coach turns,

0:02:050:02:07

the artist gets the power to choose who they want to work with.

0:02:070:02:11

-I don't know what to do and I'm meant to decide now.

-Yes.

0:02:110:02:15

If no coach turns, then the artist is out of the competition.

0:02:150:02:20

Thank you for your comments. It's been fantastic, thank you.

0:02:200:02:24

Each coach is desperate to mentor and develop the one artist

0:02:240:02:27

who has what it takes to win.

0:02:270:02:29

The blind auditions continue now on The Voice.

0:02:290:02:33

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:02:330:02:38

As the coaches take to their seats, our first artist is on his way.

0:02:380:02:45

He has experience on his side,

0:02:460:02:48

but will that shine through in his blind audition?

0:02:480:02:51

Entertaining's my passion - singing, dancing, acting, I love all three.

0:02:520:02:56

I'm always learning and trying to improve.

0:02:560:03:00

I have worked with a lot of actors.

0:03:000:03:01

-Guilty or not guilty?

-Not guilty, sir.

0:03:010:03:04

I've done EastEnders, E20, The Bill, Holby City, Casualty, Spooks.

0:03:040:03:08

Let me see my lawyer, government man.

0:03:080:03:11

I entered The Voice because I thought it would be

0:03:110:03:14

an amazing opportunity to be mentored by great coaches.

0:03:140:03:17

That, in itself, that's incredible.

0:03:170:03:20

I think it's important that I don't use my experiences

0:03:220:03:25

to make me think I've got this in the bag.

0:03:250:03:28

I want the coaches to turn around.

0:03:280:03:31

So I'm going to do all I can to make that happen.

0:03:310:03:34

# I came to dance

0:03:490:03:52

# Oh, I hit the floor Cos that's my plans, plans, plans

0:03:520:03:57

# I'm wearing all my favourite brands, brands, brands... #

0:03:580:04:05

'He's got two!'

0:04:060:04:07

He's got will.i.am and Danny.

0:04:070:04:09

'Come on!'

0:04:090:04:10

# Yeah, it goes on and on and on

0:04:100:04:15

# It goes on and on and on

0:04:150:04:22

# I throw my hands up in the air sometimes

0:04:220:04:26

# Saying ayo, baby, let's go

0:04:260:04:30

# Hey, I wanna celebrate and live my life

0:04:300:04:33

# Saying ayo, baby, let's go... #

0:04:330:04:39

CHEERING

0:04:390:04:44

# Yeah, I told you once

0:04:450:04:47

# Now I told you twice

0:04:470:04:49

# We gonna light it up Like it's dynamite

0:04:490:04:54

# I will risk it all

0:04:540:04:58

# I will be the last one standing

0:04:580:05:02

# I-I-I

0:05:020:05:05

# Put my hands in the air

0:05:050:05:12

# We can go all night

0:05:120:05:13

# We are gonna light it up Like it's dynamite, yeah

0:05:130:05:18

# I told you once Now I told you twice

0:05:180:05:21

# We gonna light it up Like it's dynamite. #

0:05:210:05:26

CHEERING

0:05:260:05:29

Thank you so much. Thank you, guys, too.

0:05:420:05:46

-What's your name, big man?

-My name's Heshima, I'm 25.

0:05:490:05:53

25. Man, you killed it. That was one hell of a performance.

0:05:530:05:59

-Thank you so much.

-You could tell within a few seconds. I was straight in.

0:05:590:06:03

You set something off in me. I went, that man has something.

0:06:030:06:07

Things you might want to work on. You see the crowds going crazy, the dance moves come out of nowhere.

0:06:070:06:14

-The vocals suffered a little bit.

-Right.

-I think we can work on that.

0:06:140:06:18

I think you are one to watch in this competition. I will kill to have you on my team.

0:06:180:06:21

I really would kill to have you on my team.

0:06:210:06:25

I don't want to have to explain why I think you are amazing.

0:06:250:06:29

But I think you're amazing.

0:06:290:06:31

I agree with Danny, you started losing what the focus was,

0:06:310:06:36

and that is the voice. Later on,

0:06:360:06:38

when we're whu-whu-whupping the competition on this side,

0:06:380:06:42

you can do the dance moves, we can do the dance moves then.

0:06:420:06:46

Nome of their guys can dance. You're going to whu-whu-whup them up.

0:06:460:06:51

CHEERING

0:06:510:06:55

I'm not going to do the w-w-w-whup stuff. But pick me!

0:06:550:06:59

Pick me! Come on!

0:07:010:07:04

I thought you were great. You have it. You have the whole thing.

0:07:040:07:08

So, if you are looking for longevity, you have to be with me.

0:07:080:07:12

CHEERING

0:07:120:07:15

Let me tell you, you are a worldwide global performer.

0:07:150:07:19

I know what that feels like, personally.

0:07:190:07:23

I know what that feels like personally.

0:07:230:07:26

WHOOPING AND CHEERING

0:07:260:07:29

I don't read it that way. You're not letting me finish here.

0:07:290:07:33

What I meant by that was, rewind...

0:07:330:07:35

LAUGHTER

0:07:350:07:37

As a producer/songwriter, I work with a lot of performers who tour.

0:07:370:07:42

And you are supposed to tour.

0:07:420:07:44

How are you going to take your career to the level

0:07:440:07:48

that you tour the planet? I hope I can help you do that.

0:07:480:07:52

You can't be blinded by promises of America and world tours.

0:07:520:07:56

At the end of this Voice, there's a record deal.

0:07:560:07:59

-And it's not with his label.

-I'm sorry,

0:07:590:08:01

-I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

-It's another song! I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

0:08:010:08:07

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

0:08:070:08:10

I'm sorry.

0:08:100:08:12

You need to bring your ass over here right now.

0:08:120:08:15

You know we want you. Who do you want?

0:08:190:08:22

It's all up to you, man.

0:08:220:08:25

CHEERING AND SHOUTING

0:08:250:08:28

What is he going to say? Will, Will.

0:08:340:08:36

I'm sorry I'm taking so long, it's such an important decision,

0:08:400:08:44

do you know what I mean?

0:08:440:08:45

So, I'm going to go for...

0:08:450:08:48

-He's still confused.

-Yeah, he is.

-He's still confused.

0:08:520:08:55

I'm going to go for Will.

0:09:030:09:06

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:09:060:09:09

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

0:09:090:09:13

Oh, I'm sorry.

0:09:160:09:18

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:09:180:09:21

-I'm not talking to you.

-What?

0:09:320:09:34

-I'm not talking to you.

-I'm sorry.

-I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry...

0:09:340:09:40

You played that one lovely, Will, I was robbed. I was robbed!

0:09:410:09:46

In 12 years time, I'll call you... when I'm on the label you're on.

0:09:460:09:51

No fighting allowed.

0:09:510:09:53

Tom Jones, the voice of maturity sends Will and Jessie to the naughty step.

0:09:540:09:59

And here comes another voice of experience.

0:09:590:10:04

Glasgow gran Barbara Bryceland.

0:10:040:10:06

I'm Barbara and I'm a glam gran from Glasgow.

0:10:060:10:10

I think as a woman we play all roles and I enjoy being a grandmother.

0:10:120:10:17

But I'm also an individual as well.

0:10:170:10:18

We are getting younger,

0:10:180:10:20

not in our age, but getting younger in our head and how we think.

0:10:200:10:24

I'm really excited to hear you sing

0:10:240:10:26

because you seem to be one of our more experienced contestants.

0:10:260:10:30

-I'm trying to find the right way to say this?

-I'm old.

0:10:300:10:33

If that's the case, you've probably been singing for longer than most people in this competition?

0:10:330:10:39

Definitely. Before these guys were even born.

0:10:390:10:41

I'll give these kids a run for their money

0:10:410:10:43

cos I've done all the stuff they've done.

0:10:430:10:45

I'm 20-something years up the road and I'm still here.

0:10:450:10:48

This is really important for me,

0:10:530:10:54

because when you become my age, you kind of become invisible.

0:10:540:10:58

After 24 years, it's time to get a bit more recognition.

0:10:580:11:02

The Voice is the best show on the planet right now.

0:11:020:11:06

And I want to be on it.

0:11:060:11:08

Go on, Barbara! Whoo-hoo!

0:11:130:11:16

# You know I dreamt of you

0:11:200:11:24

# A sin and a lie

0:11:280:11:31

# I have my freedom

0:11:340:11:40

# But I don't have much time

0:11:410:11:47

# Fate has been served

0:11:500:11:54

# Them tears must be cried

0:11:570:12:02

# Let's do some living... #

0:12:040:12:09

Come on!

0:12:090:12:12

# After we die

0:12:120:12:21

# Wild horses

0:12:210:12:27

# Couldn't drag me away

0:12:270:12:34

# Wild horses

0:12:350:12:40

# Couldn't drag me away

0:12:430:12:48

# Away

0:12:480:12:55

# Away... #

0:12:550:13:01

APPLAUSE

0:13:010:13:05

The reason why I didn't turn around, the reason why

0:13:150:13:18

I didn't turn around is because I knew that, er...

0:13:180:13:21

you and Mr Jones... Yep.

0:13:210:13:24

Have a thing going on.

0:13:240:13:26

In my dreams.

0:13:260:13:28

One thing I want to say, when I was a little girl growing up

0:13:340:13:36

and all these years, he has always been a legend in my house

0:13:360:13:41

and my family and I'm so privileged. Thanks, Tom.

0:13:410:13:43

I pressed the buzzer, so you know what I think of you.

0:13:450:13:49

I think you're a great singer, really, really great. You have a wonderful voice.

0:13:490:13:53

-I'm proud to have you on my team.

-Thank you very much. Team Tom, Team Tom!

0:13:530:13:58

Are we are going to destroy all these other people?

0:13:580:14:01

Let me give you a kiss before you go.

0:14:030:14:06

Tell me how you are feeling right now.

0:14:180:14:20

Cloud 9. Absolutely amazing. What a buzz. Tom Jones was my dream.

0:14:200:14:25

He will bring out the best in me.

0:14:250:14:27

I sang with Aretha Franklin years ago and Barbara is as strong as she is.

0:14:270:14:32

She grew up listening to Tom, now she's on his team.

0:14:320:14:35

A good day for Barbara.

0:14:350:14:37

Tom Jones giving me the eyebrows.

0:14:370:14:41

Well, yeah, baby.

0:14:410:14:44

Oh!

0:14:440:14:46

From across the nation,

0:14:490:14:51

the UK's best vocal talent were invited to the Blind Auditions.

0:14:510:14:55

And that includes seasoned professionals, like West End star Kerry Ellis.

0:14:560:15:02

I have been singing all my life

0:15:050:15:07

but I have been in musicals for about ten years.

0:15:070:15:10

I got my first big show, My Fair Lady.

0:15:100:15:14

Since then I have been doing Les Mis, Oliver, Miss Saigon, We Will Rock You, Chess, Wicked.

0:15:140:15:20

I have been very fortunate to have a really good career,

0:15:200:15:25

but it's not every day you get the possibility of working with four superstars.

0:15:250:15:30

Were you getting bored of the green make-up?

0:15:300:15:34

Is that actually what this is all about!

0:15:340:15:37

I am known for being the green face.

0:15:370:15:40

Yeah, it was just an opportunity to be able to be myself

0:15:400:15:42

and sing my own songs.

0:15:420:15:44

-It's a risk.

-It is a risk. But this industry is all about taking risks.

0:15:440:15:49

So I'm taking the risk.

0:15:490:15:52

Kerry has a lot to prove.

0:15:520:15:54

But before she takes the stage, another artist is about to

0:15:540:15:57

put all his faith and future in the strength of his voice.

0:15:570:16:02

I am David, I am 23. I come from a little place called Leigh in the north-west.

0:16:020:16:06

It's not the prettiest place to be.

0:16:060:16:09

I used to stack shelves overnight at a supermarket

0:16:110:16:15

but I have quit my job, so that I can focus everything on The Voice.

0:16:150:16:20

I didn't realise how big it would become for me.

0:16:200:16:22

This is my life, and I want it to be my life in a big way.

0:16:220:16:27

-OK, what are you singing today?

-The Man Who Can't Be Moved

0:16:270:16:30

-by The Script.

-Oh, you're brave!

0:16:300:16:33

-Tell me about it. It's a risk.

-Yes, or a stroke of genius.

0:16:330:16:39

I'm hoping for the latter, my own take on it as well.

0:16:390:16:41

-That's even braver.

-The guy who wrote it is going to be sat there.

0:16:410:16:46

I have quit my job, I am singing a song to Danny,

0:16:480:16:52

the guy who wrote it, and I hope it will all pay off,

0:16:520:16:56

because if not, it's back to the night shift at the supermarket.

0:16:560:16:59

# Going back to the corner where I first saw you

0:17:160:17:21

# Going to camp in my sleeping bag I'm not going to move

0:17:210:17:26

# Got some words on cardboard

0:17:260:17:29

# Got your picture in my head

0:17:290:17:32

# Saying, if you see this girl Can you tell her where I am?

0:17:320:17:37

# Some try to hand me money They don't understand

0:17:370:17:41

# I'm not broke I'm just a broken-hearted man

0:17:410:17:46

# I know it makes no sense What else can I do?

0:17:460:17:50

# How can I move over if I'm still in love with you?

0:17:500:17:56

# Cos if one day you wake up And find you're missing me

0:17:560:18:00

# And your heart starts to wonder where on earth I could be

0:18:000:18:05

# Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we meet

0:18:050:18:10

# And you'll see me waiting for you on the corner of the street

0:18:100:18:14

# Cos I'm not moving

0:18:140:18:18

# I'm not moving

0:18:180:18:22

# Yeah, I'm not moving

0:18:220:18:28

# I'm not moving

0:18:280:18:31

# No

0:18:310:18:32

# Going back to the corner where I first saw you

0:18:340:18:38

# Going to camp in my sleeping bag

0:18:380:18:42

# I'm not going to move. #

0:18:420:18:44

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:18:440:18:49

-What's your name? David Julien.

-How old are you?

-23.

0:18:560:19:01

How come you decided to come on The Voice?

0:19:010:19:03

I've taken a big risk coming on here, I've quit my job.

0:19:030:19:06

-You are kidding me.

-Just to be on here.

-Are you kidding me?!

0:19:060:19:09

So, fingers crossed, it was worth the risk.

0:19:090:19:13

-I have to say, you've some cojones to sing my song.

-Yeah.

0:19:130:19:16

When I heard it, I heard the same heart and intention and emotion that was there

0:19:160:19:22

-when I wrote it, that's why I pushed the button. It was fantastic.

-Thank you.

0:19:220:19:27

I didn't press my button because I thought you were a girl

0:19:290:19:32

and I have enough girls on the team.

0:19:320:19:35

If I'd known you were a man, I would have pressed the bloody button!

0:19:350:19:39

I pushed my button because you've got like a butter voice,

0:19:390:19:45

but you also have room to grow and become a mega-artist,

0:19:450:19:50

as well as I am looking that far ahead down the competition.

0:19:500:19:54

We have a mission - that's to take our singers out and win.

0:19:540:19:57

AUDIENCE GASP

0:19:570:19:59

Again, I'm not in this to take anybody else's singers,

0:19:590:20:03

I'm here to work with people, be creative with people.

0:20:030:20:06

-You know...

-Come on, baby!

0:20:060:20:09

-Are you saying Danny?

-I think Danny, I'm not sure.

0:20:090:20:13

Before you start, if I was you and I was sitting here,

0:20:160:20:19

I would probably pick Danny, but let me finish, you quit your job today, right?

0:20:190:20:24

So I quit my job and that got me in the Peas,

0:20:240:20:28

because I had to figure out, do I take a job or start a group with my passion.

0:20:280:20:32

I did that. And boom, boom, here we are.

0:20:320:20:35

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:20:350:20:39

Believe me, we belong together.

0:20:410:20:44

I think I am going to go with Danny.

0:20:520:20:55

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:20:550:20:59

Congratulations. A great version as well. Well done.

0:21:020:21:06

See you in April...

0:21:060:21:08

-Whoo-hoo!

-Well done!

0:21:190:21:23

-Oh, my God, amazing! The gamble paid off.

-Yeah.

0:21:230:21:26

'Both risks - song choice, giving up work - now it looks like a distant memory'

0:21:260:21:32

it was worth doing it and getting on here and singing my heart out.

0:21:320:21:36

But while David celebrates joining Team Danny, back stage

0:21:390:21:44

West End star Kerry Ellis is getting something unusual - stage fright.

0:21:440:21:48

I just hope someone turns around, I really do! Oh, God!

0:21:480:21:52

It's a huge opportunity that is riding on this one performance.

0:21:520:21:58

This could really change things for me

0:21:580:22:02

but if nobody turns around, it's quite humiliating.

0:22:020:22:05

# Billy Ray was a preacher's son

0:22:180:22:20

# And when his daddy would visit He'd come along

0:22:200:22:23

# When they gathered around and started talking

0:22:230:22:26

# That's when Billy would take me walking

0:22:260:22:29

# Through the back yard we'd go walking

0:22:290:22:31

# And then he'd look into my eyes

0:22:310:22:34

# Lord knows, to my surprise

0:22:340:22:36

# The only one who could ever reach me

0:22:360:22:40

-# Was the son of a preacher man... #

-Come on, someone press your button.

0:22:400:22:43

# The only one who could ever teach me

0:22:430:22:45

# Was the son of a preacher man

0:22:450:22:47

# Yes, he was, he was

0:22:470:22:49

# Whoo, yeah, yeah

0:22:490:22:52

# Yes, he was

0:22:520:22:56

# How well I remember

0:22:560:22:58

# The look that was in his eyes

0:22:580:23:00

# Stealing kisses from me on the sly

0:23:000:23:03

# Taking time to make time

0:23:030:23:06

# Telling me that he's all mine

0:23:060:23:08

# Learning from each other's knowing

0:23:080:23:10

# Looking to see how much we're growing

0:23:100:23:13

# The only one who could ever reach me

0:23:130:23:16

# Was the son of a preacher man

0:23:160:23:19

# The only boy who could ever teach me

0:23:190:23:22

# Was the son of a preacher man

0:23:220:23:24

# Yes, he was, he was

0:23:240:23:27

# Ooh, yes, he was. #

0:23:270:23:35

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:23:360:23:41

-What's your name, love?

-Kerry Ellis.

-Kerry.

-Yes.

0:23:510:23:54

How long have you been singing?

0:23:550:23:58

Pretty much all my life but professionally about 12 years.

0:23:580:24:02

So you are a professional already?

0:24:020:24:04

-I've been in musicals for about ten years.

-Ah.

0:24:040:24:07

-What musicals have you been in?

-AUDIENCE: Wicked.

0:24:090:24:13

Wicked, Oliver, Les Mis, Miss Saigon, My Fair Lady, We Will Rock You,

0:24:130:24:18

Chess...

0:24:180:24:21

I thought you did a phenomenal job, I can't fault that.

0:24:210:24:24

-All I can fault is myself for not turning the button.

-Why didn't you turn around?!

0:24:240:24:30

I'm looking for a specific type of girl singer

0:24:300:24:32

and you are not it. You will be for 99% of the rest of the UK, I'm sure.

0:24:320:24:37

Thank you.

0:24:370:24:39

This is the hardest part, where you hear someone sing phenomenal

0:24:410:24:46

-and the crowd is rocking.

-Why didn't you turn around?!

0:24:460:24:49

Cos we can only pick ten people. No, it's...

0:24:490:24:53

But it seems to me you've already made it, if you are doing musicals now, you are already there.

0:24:530:24:59

-You are getting the exposure, it's great.

-APPLAUSE

0:24:590:25:04

Thank you very much.

0:25:040:25:06

The difficulty and the risk that I took was to be publicly said no to.

0:25:210:25:26

-Yeah.

-That's strange, but then it's character-building for me

0:25:260:25:30

and it's like, well, you know, you get back on the horse

0:25:300:25:33

and carry on and that's what I have done my whole career.

0:25:330:25:37

Getting somebody like Kerry on the show lets you know how tough this competition is.

0:25:370:25:42

I mean, even though she's successful and she's in West End musicals, she still wants to come on here

0:25:420:25:47

and compete because we have so many great singers on this show.

0:25:470:25:51

That's the hardest part, you know, how many do you pick?

0:25:510:25:55

-Still to come on The Voice tonight: Will misses out.

-She was wow.

0:25:550:26:01

Now it's on.

0:26:010:26:02

A lifeguard gets cheeky.

0:26:040:26:05

I am not going to kiss you, don't get too excited, right.

0:26:060:26:09

Will two voices get double the reaction?

0:26:090:26:13

Wherever Vince Kidd goes,

0:26:220:26:24

his distinctive image gets heads turning.

0:26:240:26:26

But in the blind auditions, only a distinctive voice

0:26:260:26:29

will get the chairs turning.

0:26:290:26:31

I have definitely always been that kid growing up

0:26:310:26:34

that's just never fitted in. Always been slightly eccentric.

0:26:340:26:38

Every day he's singing, can't shut him up, but it's his life really.

0:26:400:26:44

He's always had a very unique style.

0:26:440:26:47

My mum's horrified, she says, "Look at the state of his boots."

0:26:470:26:51

But he is just Vince, still my little boy.

0:26:510:26:54

You couldn't look more different if you tried.

0:26:540:26:56

-Have you ever worn anything like that?

-I don't think I'd get in it, to be honest.

0:26:560:27:00

No, but he used to be a punk.

0:27:000:27:01

-What colour was your hair back in the day?

-A few red streaks down the side.

0:27:010:27:08

-Did you do the sleeveless look?

-No, just bondage trousers.

0:27:080:27:12

Just bondage trousers, as you do!

0:27:120:27:14

I definitely, at times, you know, doubt myself.

0:27:190:27:22

I definitely have times when I can't do this.

0:27:240:27:28

The fact I am not just going to be judged straight out

0:27:280:27:31

on the way I look is quite scary.

0:27:310:27:33

# I made it through the wilderness

0:27:420:27:46

# Now I made it through

0:27:460:27:49

# I didn't know how lost I was until I found you

0:27:500:27:55

# I was beat

0:27:550:27:57

# Incomplete

0:27:570:27:59

# And I was sad and blue but you made me feel

0:27:590:28:04

# Yeah, you made me feel

0:28:040:28:09

# So shiny and new

0:28:090:28:12

# Like a virgin Touched for the very first time

0:28:120:28:18

# Like a virgin

0:28:180:28:22

# When your heart beats

0:28:220:28:23

# Going to give you all my love

0:28:240:28:28

# Yeah my fear is fading fast

0:28:280:28:31

# I've been saving it up for you cos only love can last

0:28:310:28:37

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:28:370:28:40

He's got Jessie! Come on!

0:28:420:28:47

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:28:470:28:49

Come on, Tom! Turn round.

0:28:540:28:56

# Like a virgin Touched for the very first time

0:28:560:29:00

# Like a virgin

0:29:000:29:04

# When your heart beats

0:29:040:29:05

# Like a virgin, yeah

0:29:070:29:10

# Oo-oo-ooh

0:29:100:29:14

# Li-i-ike a virgi-i-in. #

0:29:140:29:21

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:29:210:29:24

I thought it was two people up there.

0:29:470:29:49

LAUGHTER

0:29:490:29:51

-What's your name?

-I'm Vince. How you doing?

0:29:510:29:53

-Where are you from?

-From London, like suburban South London.

0:29:530:29:58

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:30:000:30:01

-Very different by the way.

-Thank you very much.

0:30:030:30:06

Do you do that a lot?

0:30:060:30:07

I don't do it on every song. I wanted to play around

0:30:070:30:10

with that song a bit, make it something new.

0:30:100:30:13

-You did, definitely. It was great.

-Thank you.

0:30:130:30:17

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:30:170:30:19

Personally, I think you did a fantastic job.

0:30:190:30:21

I had no idea what I was going to turn around to

0:30:210:30:23

but I have to say the look matched the song choice and the energy.

0:30:230:30:26

You look absolutely fantastic as well. Love to have you on my team.

0:30:260:30:30

Cool, man.

0:30:300:30:31

I would have to say, first you flipped the hell out of that,

0:30:320:30:37

you switched it up and I never thought somebody could take

0:30:370:30:42

Madonna's Like A Virgin and just soul it up like that,

0:30:420:30:46

because it was never intended on being like a soul song.

0:30:460:30:48

It's like the ultimate pop song ever.

0:30:480:30:51

You put a whole bunch of soul sauce in it.

0:30:510:30:53

It would be awesome if you could join my squad.

0:30:530:30:55

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:30:550:30:57

That was amazing, when I pull this face, I know that I like it.

0:30:590:31:04

I am all about voices and all about...that.

0:31:040:31:08

So, if you want to do a lot of that, then holler!

0:31:080:31:10

I think we all feel the same way. We'd all like you...

0:31:120:31:16

-Oh, did you turn your chair? I didn't think you turned it!

-Of course I did.

0:31:160:31:20

That's brilliant, I got four!

0:31:200:31:23

APPLAUSE

0:31:230:31:25

That's cool! I didn't realise, sorry.

0:31:260:31:29

On my life, I thought it was two people. I thought, "What am I listening to?"

0:31:290:31:33

-I was enjoying it so much.

-Oh, wicked.

0:31:330:31:37

Oh, I have to choose now. Oh, gosh.

0:31:380:31:40

AUDIENCE SHOUTING

0:31:400:31:42

Right, seriously, Tom Jones, you're an absolute legend.

0:31:420:31:46

It's really hard.

0:31:460:31:49

I've got four people that I very much respect and admire.

0:31:490:31:51

I'll just say that they all have strong singers in their teams. I don't have someone as strong as you.

0:31:510:31:57

-Danny!

-Oh, the sob story.

0:32:000:32:02

-I want to win and you know I will fight for someone I want to win. That's you, boy.

-OK. OK.

0:32:020:32:09

Um...

0:32:150:32:16

Do you know what, I'm going to go with Jessie J.

0:32:190:32:22

I just love you.

0:32:260:32:27

I love you. That's it. I love you, I love you.

0:32:270:32:31

I used to come and watch you perform.

0:32:310:32:33

APPLAUSE

0:32:330:32:35

-What a voice.

-I really thought it was two people.

0:32:410:32:45

It's all right for you.

0:32:450:32:46

I'm excited now.

0:32:460:32:48

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:32:500:32:52

You know what, I never ever get emotional but I feel very emotional.

0:32:520:32:57

Oh, God bless you.

0:32:570:32:58

Sometimes an artist's voice is totally at odds with their image,

0:33:000:33:04

which is why we have blind auditions.

0:33:040:33:07

So, what kind of vocal surprise does 17-year-old Shansel

0:33:070:33:10

have for our coaches?

0:33:100:33:13

I'm Shansel, I'm 17 and I'm a student.

0:33:130:33:15

Everyone says, "I've been singing all my life,"

0:33:160:33:19

but when I was nine months old my mum and dad bought a karaoke machine

0:33:190:33:22

and they couldn't keep me away with it.

0:33:220:33:24

Shut up, will ya? We're trying to watch telly.

0:33:240:33:26

They will say, "Can you shut up," because I don't stop.

0:33:260:33:31

Everything I do, I'm singing. They're ripping their hair out over it.

0:33:310:33:34

I ain't been taught. I'm not posh. I'm very down-to-earth.

0:33:340:33:39

# I don't care what the people... #

0:33:390:33:41

People don't expect the music I sing to come out of myself

0:33:410:33:45

because I don't put myself across like that.

0:33:450:33:48

It comes as quite a shock to everybody.

0:33:480:33:50

People can't tell that I'm a 17-year-old by the way I sing.

0:33:550:33:58

My mum says I sound like a 30-year-old.

0:33:590:34:01

I've never done anything like this before.

0:34:030:34:06

I've never performed in front of a load of people.

0:34:060:34:08

It's like music royalty out there, isn't it?

0:34:080:34:11

# Nessun dorma... #

0:34:190:34:23

Wow!

0:34:230:34:25

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:34:250:34:26

# Nessun dorma

0:34:260:34:30

# Tu pure, o Principessa

0:34:320:34:38

# Nella tua fredda stanza

0:34:380:34:44

# Guardi le stelle

0:34:440:34:49

# Che tremano d'amore

0:34:490:34:55

# E di speranza

0:34:550:35:02

# Ma il mio mistero e chiuso in me

0:35:040:35:11

# Il nome moi nessun sapra!

0:35:110:35:17

# No, no, sulla tua bocca lo diro

0:35:170:35:25

# Quando la luce splendera

0:35:270:35:33

# All'alba vincero

0:35:330:35:41

# Vincero

0:35:420:35:48

# Vincero... #

0:35:480:35:55

APPLAUSE

0:35:550:35:58

Wow!

0:36:110:36:12

-Wow. What's your name?

-Shansel.

-That was beautiful.

-Thank you.

0:36:120:36:19

-How old were you when you started singing?

-I'm 17 now...

0:36:190:36:23

-Wow!

-17.

0:36:230:36:24

Too late. Too late.

0:36:270:36:30

I've never had a singing lesson in my life. I was taking the mickey

0:36:300:36:34

out of Katherine Jenkins and Lesley Garret on the TV

0:36:340:36:37

and then I discovered I could to it so ever since then I've just been like...

0:36:370:36:40

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:36:400:36:42

I didn't turn around because I thought you would be older.

0:36:440:36:47

I thought you would be someone who I would be intimidated by.

0:36:470:36:51

But I think this isn't the last we are going to see of you.

0:36:510:36:54

Thank you very much.

0:36:540:36:55

I'm kicking myself in the butt right now.

0:37:000:37:04

Something told me

0:37:040:37:05

to turn around because there is an opportunity to re-invent radio.

0:37:050:37:10

Just because radio is the way it is, it doesn't mean it has to

0:37:100:37:14

stay like that.

0:37:140:37:16

When I turned around and you told me you never took lessons

0:37:160:37:18

and you're 17 years old and you were just taking the mickey

0:37:180:37:21

out of what you saw on TV...

0:37:210:37:23

It's my fault that I missed an opportunity here on The Voice.

0:37:240:37:28

I mean that from the bottom of my heart. For real.

0:37:280:37:32

Thank you so much. Thank you.

0:37:320:37:33

APPLAUSE

0:37:330:37:37

If I had that... What! She was wow! It was my fault.

0:37:490:37:54

So tough, because you can't see them.

0:37:540:37:56

I'm supposed to be thinking outside the box.

0:37:560:37:58

I'm supposed to dream. That's what I bring. You know. Now it's on!

0:37:590:38:05

Mmm.

0:38:050:38:07

Are you all right? Well done!

0:38:090:38:13

I wish they pushed the button

0:38:130:38:15

but the response I got after was good enough.

0:38:150:38:18

I have took in all the advice. I soaked that all in.

0:38:180:38:20

The response from will.i.am is good enough for me, definitely.

0:38:200:38:24

Well done.

0:38:240:38:27

Shansel proves that there are no second chances for our coaches

0:38:270:38:31

and choosing on voice alone is tough.

0:38:310:38:33

If you were a coach, would you turn for Ross Wild's voice?

0:38:370:38:40

# It's something unpredictable But in the end it's right

0:38:400:38:46

# I hope you have the time of your li-i-ife... #

0:38:460:38:55

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:38:580:38:59

-Can I pretend I hit the button?

-We made a mistake.

0:39:020:39:06

Having my chance over again, I should have hit the button.

0:39:060:39:10

Cos I think you're great.

0:39:100:39:12

APPLAUSE

0:39:120:39:13

And listen to Sam Thornton - to press or not to press?

0:39:210:39:26

# Why do fools fall in love

0:39:270:39:33

# Fall in love, in love, in love. #

0:39:330:39:40

APPLAUSE

0:39:420:39:43

Why do fools not turn around?

0:39:470:39:51

LAUGHTER

0:39:510:39:53

I'm kicking myself. I'm just kicking myself now.

0:39:530:39:56

Sam didn't go through, not because he wasn't good enough

0:39:560:39:59

but because we're idiots.

0:39:590:40:00

People will be saying, "Why didn't you press the button?"

0:40:000:40:04

I honestly don't have an answer, you are fantastic. You really are.

0:40:040:40:07

# Hallelujah... #

0:40:140:40:15

Close your eyes and decide whether Siobhan Stott floats your boat.

0:40:150:40:19

# Hallelujah

0:40:220:40:25

# Hallelu-u-ujah. #

0:40:250:40:33

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:40:330:40:35

I really wish I had hit my button, stupid button. Um...

0:40:420:40:47

It's hard because the calibre of singers on this show

0:40:490:40:53

is really, really strong.

0:40:530:40:55

She was a great singer. I should have banged the bloody button.

0:40:590:41:02

Gutted.

0:41:020:41:04

I'm gutted as well, man.

0:41:040:41:06

So will there be regrets or celebrations all round

0:41:100:41:14

for road-hardened music man Vince Freeman?

0:41:140:41:16

I'm Vince, I'm 34, and I'm a musician.

0:41:160:41:19

I've spent my entire life doing music.

0:41:190:41:23

I don't believe there's many people, if any, that work harder than me.

0:41:230:41:27

At the moment, I'm gigging wherever I can get shows.

0:41:270:41:30

I've been doing 300 shows a year.

0:41:300:41:32

I have thrown everything I've got at being successful.

0:41:340:41:37

I started in my bedroom, slamming my feet. That's what I like to do.

0:41:380:41:42

It's all about those moments in front of that one person

0:41:450:41:48

that can change your whole life.

0:41:480:41:51

All I've really wanted is the opportunity to be able to say,

0:41:520:41:56

"Yeah, I've had my shot."

0:41:560:41:58

# Lay where you lay

0:42:180:42:20

CHEERING

0:42:200:42:22

# Don't make a sound

0:42:220:42:24

# I know you're watching

0:42:260:42:28

# They're watching

0:42:300:42:32

# All the commotion

0:42:330:42:36

# The killing and praying

0:42:370:42:40

# Has people talking

0:42:400:42:43

# They're talking

0:42:450:42:46

# And yo-o-ou

0:42:480:42:53

# Your sex is on fire

0:42:530:42:58

-He's pressed his button!

-Has he?

-He moved his hand.

0:42:590:43:02

# Is this forever?

0:43:020:43:04

# Or just tonight

0:43:070:43:09

# Are we the greatest?

0:43:110:43:13

# The greatest, the greatest

0:43:140:43:18

# You

0:43:190:43:23

# Your sex is on fire

0:43:230:43:28

# You, your sex is on fire

0:43:340:43:42

# Fire. #

0:43:440:43:50

Yes!

0:43:510:43:53

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:43:530:43:56

-You just turned your chair.

-Absolutely.

0:44:030:44:06

-What's your name?

-My name is Vince.

-Nice to meet you.

-Nice to meet you too, sir.

0:44:100:44:15

-You've got no shoes on.

-I haven't.

-Why?

0:44:150:44:18

-I don't like playing with shoes.

-Have you got nice feet though?

0:44:180:44:22

No, I've got web toes.

0:44:220:44:23

LAUGHTER

0:44:230:44:26

You're awesome. Like, really good.

0:44:290:44:31

Thank you. I wanted to turn around the first note you hit.

0:44:310:44:34

But then you belong with Danny.

0:44:340:44:37

You play the guitar, you sing wonderful, you are awesome,

0:44:370:44:40

awesome, but you belong with him.

0:44:400:44:42

Nice!

0:44:450:44:47

I do know talent when I hear it, yes, indeed.

0:44:480:44:51

I turned my chair because there is rawness in there.

0:44:510:44:54

Yours is the perfect voice to get me through

0:44:540:44:56

to the next round to beat these guys.

0:44:560:44:58

-There's more.

-Come over here. Welcome. Get over here.

0:44:580:45:02

# I got soul but I'm not a soldier... #

0:45:040:45:07

Shoes off!

0:45:070:45:10

-Great singer.

-Yeah.

0:45:120:45:14

Ye-e-eah!

0:45:160:45:18

So the shoeless wonder bags his place on Team Danny.

0:45:190:45:23

Mind your toes on the way out!

0:45:230:45:25

Coming up, an '80s superstar...

0:45:260:45:28

# Systematic... #

0:45:280:45:30

..a voice from the valleys...

0:45:330:45:36

First of all, we Welsh people have to stick together.

0:45:360:45:39

You are the reason I came on the show, to find people that can sing.

0:45:390:45:42

..and break it up, you lot.

0:45:430:45:45

-You belong with Danny.

-You are kidding me!

0:45:450:45:48

-A ladies man.

-That's all it is.

0:45:480:45:51

I didn't turn around because if you had sung one of our songs...

0:45:510:45:54

The violin's out...

0:45:540:45:55

All right, guys, pick on the young girl.

0:45:560:46:00

If you're making superstars fight it out,

0:46:000:46:02

you know you're on to a winner.

0:46:020:46:04

So can Alex Josh get them all squaring up?

0:46:040:46:07

My name is Alex, I work part-time as a lifeguard

0:46:090:46:11

and I do a bit of singing on the side.

0:46:110:46:14

I'm quite a cheeky chappy.

0:46:140:46:16

I wouldn't say I've been a good boy. I got kicked out of school.

0:46:160:46:19

Wasn't a good move. Didn't get the qualifications.

0:46:190:46:23

I just could have done better, you know.

0:46:230:46:26

All I have ever wanted to do is sing, even if it's sing in a pub.

0:46:260:46:30

I can't be a lawyer, I don't want to be one.

0:46:300:46:32

I want to share. Make a few people happy.

0:46:320:46:36

-When you are on stage, do the girls respond to you?

-I suppose they do.

-Yeah, they do.

0:46:360:46:42

Is that a big draw for you, something you look forward to,

0:46:420:46:45

if it all goes well?

0:46:450:46:46

Of course I look forward to girls!

0:46:460:46:48

I'm Aleks, I am who I am. Just Aleks.

0:46:500:46:55

I am trying to hide my nervousness with confidence.

0:46:580:47:02

I don't know how I'm feeling. Very nervous, yeah.

0:47:020:47:08

# Well, you've done done me and you bet I felt it

0:47:210:47:24

# Tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted... #

0:47:240:47:27

He's gone right away!

0:47:290:47:31

# But I won't hesitate no more, no more

0:47:340:47:41

# It cannot wait, I'm yours

0:47:410:47:47

# Open up your mind and see like me

0:47:500:47:53

# Open up your plans and damn you're free

0:47:530:47:57

# Look into your heart and you'll find the sky is yo-o-ours

0:47:570:48:03

# So please don't, please don't please don't

0:48:030:48:05

# There's no need to complicate

0:48:050:48:08

# Cos our time is short

0:48:080:48:10

# This oh, this oh, this is our fate I'm yours

0:48:100:48:14

# Doo-doo doo doo, doo-doo Doo-doo-doo doo-doo

0:48:140:48:18

# Do you want to come on Scooch on over closer, dear

0:48:180:48:23

# And I will nibble your e-e-ear

0:48:230:48:26

# Oh! #

0:48:260:48:29

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:48:300:48:33

-What's your name?

-Aleks Josh.

0:48:410:48:44

-Do you mind me asking how old you are?

-17.

0:48:460:48:49

-17!

-My job's a lifeguard.

0:48:490:48:52

-That's cool.

-It's not that cool.

0:48:520:48:54

It is, I love that, I was always pretending to drown like...

0:48:540:49:00

-Cos there was always cute boys...

-Jessie, if you drowned in my pool!

0:49:000:49:04

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:49:060:49:09

Save me!

0:49:100:49:12

-Are you all right?

-I'm so nervous.

0:49:130:49:16

Listen, for being nervous, that was one hell of a performance.

0:49:160:49:20

Great song choice as well. Really suited you.

0:49:200:49:23

You put your own spin on it and honestly,

0:49:230:49:26

I thought you were absolutely fantastic.

0:49:260:49:28

You know when you're walking down the street or you pass by

0:49:320:49:35

a restaurant or a store and you hear a song and right away your ear goes...

0:49:350:49:39

I heard it. I didn't want to wait another second so I hit my button.

0:49:410:49:44

The character of your voice is star quality.

0:49:470:49:50

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:49:500:49:51

The reason I didn't turn around was because there was some tuning issues.

0:49:550:49:59

Really smile, it will change the sound...

0:49:590:50:02

He was smiling.

0:50:020:50:04

-I turned round right away, he was smiling.

-There's a difference...

0:50:040:50:09

I know. He was smiling the way

0:50:090:50:12

you were taught to smile if you had a vocal coach.

0:50:120:50:14

No, it's fine. Just pick Danny.

0:50:180:50:20

I am really dazed at the moment.

0:50:240:50:26

-Sit down on the steps.

-Yeah, I am going to.

0:50:270:50:31

I think, Will, I know you would be a good coach and everything,

0:50:340:50:38

but you're more rapping.

0:50:380:50:39

-No.

-No.

-Yeah, he is.

0:50:390:50:43

I am not saying you wouldn't be able to teach me anything.

0:50:430:50:46

I can't explain why, I am not good at explaining or anything like that.

0:50:460:50:49

I just, oh... Listen, can I just say.

0:50:490:50:54

Can I sit next to you?

0:50:540:50:56

I'm not going to kiss you, don't get too excited, right!

0:50:580:51:01

It was worth a try.

0:51:040:51:06

Come on, take your time.

0:51:070:51:09

I like your band and you know, I think, you know, your lyrics -

0:51:090:51:14

I don't want to, like...

0:51:140:51:18

-Say what's in your mind.

-Say what you feel.

0:51:180:51:20

I just feel Danny.

0:51:310:51:32

Yeah, yeah, that's great.

0:51:320:51:34

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:51:350:51:37

That's the winner right there, winner!

0:51:470:51:50

I think I just found a winner.

0:51:530:51:55

So, after a USA v Ireland showdown, Aleks goes for Team Danny.

0:51:570:52:02

It feels fantastic to beat Will. He went all chips in on that one

0:52:020:52:07

and he wanted Aleks bad.

0:52:070:52:09

When the stakes are high, you have to play to win.

0:52:090:52:12

It's not just what you know, it's who you know.

0:52:130:52:17

Frank Sinatra once told me...

0:52:170:52:19

I worked for Macy Gray before she was big...

0:52:190:52:22

The name-dropping has been horrendous.

0:52:220:52:24

We were supporting Paul McCartney...

0:52:240:52:26

I've got something - oh, it's another name.

0:52:260:52:28

MOCKING: I think you should work with me because I've worked with Usher!

0:52:280:52:31

I have met everybody that was around so I can pull names out of the hat.

0:52:310:52:34

I knew Dusty Springfield very well.

0:52:340:52:36

Aretha Franklin, Shirley Bassey, Kelly Jones is a good friend of mine.

0:52:360:52:40

I know Tina Turner well.

0:52:400:52:43

I met Justin Bieber once, woo!

0:52:430:52:46

-I was living with Michael Jackson...

-I was with Elvis Presley.

0:52:460:52:50

CHEERING

0:52:500:52:53

Hoping she will be a name worth fighting over,

0:52:560:52:59

it's teenager Frances Wood.

0:52:590:53:02

# I need a dollar, dollar Dollar is what I need... #

0:53:020:53:05

My name is Frances Wood, I am 18 years of age.

0:53:050:53:07

I'm from quite a working class family

0:53:070:53:09

and I am not afraid to work hard to get to where I need to be.

0:53:090:53:12

I work as a bartender to fund my equipment.

0:53:140:53:17

I have put songs I have written on to a CD that I sell at the pub.

0:53:170:53:22

Everything I do all revolves around my music.

0:53:220:53:25

The song I am going to be singing is Where Is The Love by Black Eyed Peas, which adds

0:53:270:53:31

pressure because obviously will.i.am is the coach, so I have to impress him.

0:53:310:53:35

I am ready to showcase it, to hopefully the nation, worldwide.

0:53:360:53:40

This an opportunity money can't buy so I have to make it count.

0:53:440:53:49

I have been told that I am living in the clouds,

0:53:490:53:52

which makes you want it more.

0:53:520:53:54

Black Eyed Peas! She's brave!

0:54:000:54:04

# What's wrong with the world, mama?

0:54:060:54:08

# People living like they ain't got no mamas

0:54:080:54:10

# I think the whole world's addicted to the drama

0:54:100:54:14

# Only attracted to the things that'll bring you trauma

0:54:140:54:17

w# And yeah, we try to stop terrorism

0:54:170:54:19

# We still got terrorists here living in the USA

0:54:190:54:23

# The big CIA, Bloods and the Crips and the KKK

0:54:230:54:26

# But if you only have love for your own race

0:54:260:54:29

# Then you better leave space to discriminate

0:54:290:54:32

# To discriminate only generates hate

0:54:320:54:34

# So you're bound to get irate, hey

0:54:340:54:37

# Madness is what you demonstrate... #

0:54:370:54:40

Come on!

0:54:400:54:42

# But you gotta have love, you gotta have love

0:54:420:54:48

# People killing, people dying

0:54:480:54:51

# Children hurting, nearly crying

0:54:510:54:53

# Would you practice what you preach?

0:54:530:54:56

# Would you turn the other cheek?

0:54:560:54:58

# Father, father, father help us

0:54:580:55:01

# Send us guidance from above

0:55:010:55:04

# People got me, got me questioning

0:55:040:55:07

# Where is the love? #

0:55:070:55:08

Come on, Will!

0:55:080:55:09

# Where is the love?

0:55:090:55:12

# Where is the love?

0:55:120:55:15

# Where is the love The love, the love?

0:55:150:55:19

# One love, one love We got one love, one love. #

0:55:190:55:22

No!

0:55:220:55:24

Yeah!

0:55:250:55:27

CHEERING

0:55:270:55:30

Thank you very much.

0:55:300:55:31

-What's your name?

-Frances Wood.

0:55:360:55:38

See now, for me, I was that close to pressing the button and only

0:55:380:55:42

when I heard the "come on, Will", I knew there's no point

0:55:420:55:45

because already you're singing his song.

0:55:450:55:49

There was nothing wrong with the performance.

0:55:490:55:51

I think he's going to do fantastic with you.

0:55:510:55:54

-Maybe leave out the name next time.

-OK!

0:55:540:55:56

APPLAUSE

0:55:560:55:59

First off, you know,

0:55:590:56:01

I didn't turn around because you sung one of our songs,

0:56:010:56:04

-I turned around...

-Whatever!

0:56:040:56:05

LAUGHTER

0:56:050:56:08

Honestly!

0:56:080:56:09

-The reason I turned around is cos you have a great voice.

-Thank you.

0:56:100:56:16

Sometimes it's hard to hear a person's voice when they're singing your song.

0:56:160:56:20

But I listened to how you reinterpreted a rap

0:56:200:56:25

and sung a rap but added your own flavour.

0:56:250:56:28

Some parts where you were out of breath

0:56:280:56:31

but I would like to work with you on those parts.

0:56:310:56:35

-That's why I pressed the button.

-Thank you very much.

0:56:350:56:39

I don't normally do rapping but I wanted to show you

0:56:390:56:42

that I can take anything you throw at me.

0:56:420:56:44

It's something different.

0:56:440:56:46

I've stepped out of my comfort zone but I can work with anything given to me.

0:56:460:56:51

APPLAUSE

0:56:510:56:54

Welcome to Team Will.i.am!

0:57:110:57:13

Give me some of that, don't leave me hanging!

0:57:150:57:18

I have to celebrate.

0:57:190:57:21

-I know, do.

-We're off to an all-you-can-eat buffet.

0:57:210:57:24

Matt and Sueleen are our first duo in the competition.

0:57:260:57:29

As a couple, you would imagine they think as one. No chance.

0:57:290:57:33

-I'm Matt.

-I'm Sueleen.

0:57:330:57:36

Been together for about 15 years.

0:57:360:57:39

-Probably more than that. 16 years we have been together.

-Long years!

0:57:390:57:44

I am going to slap you.

0:57:440:57:46

We spend the majority of our time together.

0:57:460:57:49

We sing all over the house.

0:57:490:57:52

The bathroom is a very good one at the moment because of the acoustics.

0:57:520:57:56

We bring out the best and worst in each other.

0:57:560:57:59

-It's very up and down.

-When you have been - tell it like it is, babe.

0:57:590:58:05

Is there a particular coach that you would like to turn around?

0:58:050:58:08

Not 100% set in stone, we do have different ideas of coaching.

0:58:080:58:12

-You need to have this conversation!

-We did have this discussion.

0:58:120:58:16

-Over and over again.

-No, I am going to do it.

0:58:160:58:19

It's going to be down to me.

0:58:190:58:21

We will make that choice but the more you get closer to it,

0:58:210:58:24

the more you sit and think, "Is that going to be the right decision?"

0:58:240:58:28

Having a coach turn around, one, four, whatever, it's that instant,

0:58:310:58:37

"Yes, you're good, we believe in what you are doing, we understand who you are."

0:58:370:58:42

The things that were dreams before, actually you can just reach out

0:58:420:58:46

and touch them now.

0:58:460:58:47

They are actually in your grasp.

0:58:470:58:49

You've got to go for it and believe in yourself.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

1:00:171:00:20

-Hello.

-Hi.

-Your names are?

1:00:301:00:33

-Sueleen and Matt.

-I enjoyed that. The harmonies were very interesting.

1:00:331:00:39

-I just loved how your voices blended.

-Thank you.

1:00:401:00:43

CHEERING

1:00:431:00:47

I thought it was brilliant. I love the harmony.

1:00:471:00:50

-I loved everything about it. It was really, really good.

-Thank you.

1:00:501:00:56

That was a great way to make the song your own.

1:00:561:00:58

You harmonise great together, that is why you got the attention

1:00:581:01:02

of two of the biggest stars in the world.

1:01:021:01:05

Between me and you. They got to pick one of us.

1:01:051:01:08

-Any ideas?

-Do you want to flip for it?

1:01:081:01:11

I think we might do that. Sounds really bad,

1:01:111:01:15

we have such different backgrounds, amazing things you can offer us.

1:01:151:01:19

I think we might flip for it.

1:01:191:01:22

-We will base our future career on a coin toss.

-Don't flip!

1:01:221:01:26

-Who is heads?

-Tom's heads.

1:01:281:01:32

Jessie's tails. Are you ready?

1:01:321:01:36

-It's heads.

-Tom Jones. Thank you.

1:01:421:01:44

I can't believe they just flipped a coin

1:01:461:01:50

for Tom Jones or Jessie J!

1:01:501:01:51

Oh!

1:01:551:01:58

APPLAUSE

1:01:581:02:01

-The harmonies were beautiful.

-Beautiful sound, I thought.

1:02:081:02:12

They compliment one another.

1:02:121:02:15

-Relieved.

-So relieved and so happy.

1:02:151:02:17

Such a crazy experience.

1:02:171:02:20

We got Tom Jones!

1:02:201:02:21

We have got Tom Jones. I feel we maybe should have gone for Jessie J.

1:02:211:02:25

-Here we go.

-I'm really sorry.

1:02:251:02:27

With luck on his side, Tom gets two for the price of one

1:02:291:02:31

and is now halfway to a full team of singers.

1:02:311:02:34

Next up is a 16-year-old who is not afraid to be different.

1:02:341:02:37

Can her voice stand out as much as her image?

1:02:371:02:40

My name is Holly Cosgrove. I'm not an average 16-year-old.

1:02:401:02:44

I've matured a bit faster than other people my age.

1:02:441:02:49

I started doing gigs and talent contests from the age of ten,

1:02:501:02:55

working my way up the ladder down in South Devon in the showbiz industry.

1:02:551:02:59

When my friends are out on Friday and Saturday nights partying, I'm gigging and working.

1:03:001:03:06

I feel that now is the right time for me

1:03:061:03:09

to showcase my talent to the world.

1:03:091:03:12

-You look amazing.

-Thank you.

1:03:121:03:15

I like to make myself stand out from the crowd.

1:03:151:03:18

-It's not going to help you today.

-It's part of my act.

1:03:181:03:22

I'm going to have to rely on my vocals for this.

1:03:221:03:26

When they turn around, it will be a nice surprise.

1:03:261:03:29

-Nice thing to add to it.

-Exactly.

1:03:291:03:31

I don't think anything can quite compare to this.

1:03:351:03:37

This is bigger than anything I've ever done in the past.

1:03:371:03:41

This is what I want to do. This is where I want to be.

1:03:411:03:44

I will do everything I can to get it.

1:03:441:03:46

# Now I'm in town, break it down, thinking of making a new sound

1:03:541:03:57

# Playing a different show every night in front of a new crowd

1:03:571:03:59

# That's you now, ciao Seems that life is great now

1:03:591:04:02

# See me lose focus, as I sing to you loud

1:04:021:04:06

# I can't, no I won't hush

1:04:061:04:07

# Say the words that make you blush I'm gonna sing this now

1:04:071:04:14

# See I'm true, my songs are where my heart is

1:04:141:04:17

# Like glue, I stick to other artists

1:04:171:04:19

# I'm not you, that would be disastrous

1:04:191:04:22

# Let me sing and do my thing and move to greener pastures

1:04:221:04:24

# Cos you need me I don't need you. #

1:04:241:04:27

Come on, Hol!

1:04:271:04:28

Come on!

1:04:281:04:30

# You need me, man, I don't need you

1:04:301:04:32

# You need me, you need me, man, I don't need you

1:04:321:04:37

# You need me, man, I don't need you

1:04:371:04:39

# You need me, man, I don't need you

1:04:391:04:42

# You need me, my eyes are red

1:04:421:04:45

# I been burning, I been burning

1:04:451:04:47

# My eyes are red

1:04:471:04:50

# I been burning, you're the reason why my eyes are red

1:04:501:04:55

# I've been burning, I've been burning

1:04:551:04:57

# My eyes are red, I been burning

1:04:571:05:02

# You need me, man, I don't need you

1:05:041:05:07

# You need me, man, I don't need you

1:05:071:05:10

# You need me, you need me

1:05:101:05:12

# Man, I don't need you

1:05:121:05:16

# You need me, man

1:05:161:05:18

# You need me, man

1:05:181:05:22

# You need me, man, I don't need you. #

1:05:221:05:29

APPLAUSE

1:05:291:05:31

-Hello.

-Hello. That was amazing.

1:05:351:05:40

-Your name is?

-I'm Holly Cosgrove.

-How are you?

-I'm great.

1:05:401:05:44

-I'm loving the outfit.

-Thank you.

1:05:441:05:46

I didn't turn around - two things for me I didn't hear enough,

1:05:461:05:50

control and dictation. Really pronounce your words.

1:05:501:05:55

OK, I'll take that on board.

1:05:551:05:57

I enjoyed it. I was nodding my head. I know Ed would love that version.

1:05:571:06:00

Thank you very much, thank you.

1:06:001:06:03

APPLAUSE

1:06:031:06:06

I was looking at Jessie, "Is she going to get the high note?"

1:06:061:06:11

I was 90% there. You took me to the mountain but I didn't see the view.

1:06:111:06:17

-That was the one reason why I didn't press my button.

-Thank you.

1:06:171:06:22

APPLAUSE

1:06:221:06:26

Not every singer is supposed to hit a high note,

1:06:261:06:29

not every singer is supposed to sing like Aretha Franklin.

1:06:291:06:32

There are people like Bob Dylan, Bob Marley.

1:06:321:06:36

But you need confidence in your voice.

1:06:361:06:39

Michael Jackson didn't have perfect diction.

1:06:391:06:42

He said "chamone".

1:06:421:06:44

LAUGHTER

1:06:441:06:46

It's supposed to be "come on", he said "chamone"!

1:06:461:06:48

The same attention you put to your outfit, that same confidence to wear it,

1:06:491:06:54

you want to have it when you approach the microphone.

1:06:541:06:57

-How old are you?

-I'm 16.

-16?!

1:06:571:07:02

AUDIENCE GASPS AND APPLAUDS

1:07:021:07:06

Listen, if you could rewind it again...

1:07:101:07:13

If I could rewind that performance again there was a lot

1:07:131:07:16

that I would do differently.

1:07:161:07:18

We've all had knocks in the past, that hasn't stopped us getting back on and being here today,

1:07:181:07:22

I don't see why this will stop you either.

1:07:221:07:25

-I wouldn't have been able to do that when I was 16.

-Thank you very much.

1:07:251:07:29

APPLAUSE

1:07:291:07:32

-Oh, dear. 16.

-Mad!

1:07:431:07:46

'I wish they'd known how old I was.'

1:07:461:07:48

They seemed to be wanting me through at that point.

1:07:481:07:52

So frustrating! That's the way it goes. I'll come back next year.

1:07:521:07:57

You haven't seen the last of me.

1:07:571:08:00

Holly hopes it will be second time lucky.

1:08:001:08:02

Keen to get her second shot at the fame game is our next artist.

1:08:041:08:09

If you remember the '80s, you'll definitely remember this next artist.

1:08:091:08:13

My name is Deniece Pearson, I'm 43, I'm a singer and entertainer.

1:08:131:08:19

When I was 15, my father put us in a group with my brother and sisters.

1:08:191:08:23

We were called Five Star. We were dubbed the British Jackson Five.

1:08:241:08:31

# You'll always be

1:08:311:08:35

# One in a million

1:08:351:08:37

# My fantasy come true. #

1:08:371:08:39

It went so fast.

1:08:411:08:44

It was a brilliant ride. It's amazing to me to be back here.

1:08:441:08:49

You had huge success with Five Star.

1:08:491:08:52

-Is that something that you want again?

-Absolutely. Now, now, now.

1:08:521:08:56

How do you feel about her going out on her own?

1:08:571:09:01

I support everything that she wants to do. My whole family does.

1:09:011:09:05

That is pretty much why I'm here, to give her moral support.

1:09:051:09:08

She's my baby sister.

1:09:081:09:10

I would love to achieve the same amount of success

1:09:151:09:18

I did with Five Star.

1:09:181:09:19

I would like to go bigger. That is my challenge. That is my dream.

1:09:191:09:24

# Aaah, yeah. #

1:09:281:09:33

CROWD WHOOPS

1:09:331:09:36

# You were there by my side

# Always down for the ride

1:09:531:09:56

# But your joy ride came down in flames cos your greed sold me out

1:09:561:10:01

# After all of the stealing and cheating

1:10:011:10:07

# Oh, oh

1:10:071:10:10

# You're wrong, cos if it wasn't for all that you tried to do

1:10:101:10:13

# I wouldn't know how capable I am to pull through

1:10:131:10:17

# So I wanna say thank you cos it makes me that much stronger

1:10:171:10:25

# Makes me work a little bit harder, makes me that much wiser

# But in the end you'll see

1:10:471:10:48

# You won't stop me

1:10:481:10:52

APPLAUSE

1:11:121:11:16

Where are you from? What's your back story?

1:11:251:11:27

My name is Deniece Pearson, from a group from the '80s called Five Star.

1:11:271:11:32

You're kidding!

1:11:321:11:34

-I sang with my brothers and sisters.

-You didn't lose it, anyway.

1:11:341:11:40

That's for sure. I think you're fantastic.

1:11:401:11:42

APPLAUSE

1:11:421:11:46

-Hi!

-Hi, girl!

1:11:461:11:48

It's so tough singing a song like that.

1:11:481:11:49

In the beginning it was too many tricks and trills.

1:11:491:11:53

I'm not one to talk...

1:11:531:11:57

-The way you laugh so quick!

-She's a referee.

1:11:571:12:00

LAUGHTER

1:12:001:12:02

-"Too many rips!"

-All right, guys, pick on the young girl.

1:12:021:12:08

-I can straighten that out though.

-Thank you.

-Yes, I can.

1:12:081:12:13

No, because you know how to do all that stuff.

1:12:131:12:15

The thing that hit me, more than anything else,

1:12:151:12:19

was the tone and the power, and you cut.

1:12:191:12:21

You dig into it. I'm looking forward to having you on my team.

1:12:211:12:25

Thank you very much.

1:12:251:12:26

APPLAUSE

1:12:261:12:30

You have the man, the legend, Tom Jones, right here.

1:12:301:12:33

After a five-star performance,

1:12:421:12:45

Deniece becomes Tom's sixth artist.

1:12:451:12:47

-I've got six. I've got six.

-It's called "six bomb" but it sounds like "Sex Bomb".

1:12:491:12:55

That sounds good that.

1:12:551:12:57

I'm getting a bit trigger happy here. But the talent is so great.

1:12:591:13:02

I'll press the trigger whenever I feel it's appropriate.

1:13:031:13:07

Perhaps our final vocalist

1:13:111:13:12

and fellow Welshman might become lucky number seven for Tom.

1:13:121:13:17

My name is David Faulkner, I'm 28, I work on a construction site.

1:13:171:13:22

I started singing when I was about 20-21.

1:13:241:13:27

Through school I didn't sing because it wasn't cool to be a singer.

1:13:271:13:32

Most of the guys on-site haven't seen David perform.

1:13:321:13:35

I'm one of the only ones who have.

1:13:351:13:37

When I tell them that he can sing, they can't believe it.

1:13:371:13:39

I didn't hear him sing for around two or three years into the relationship.

1:13:391:13:44

He would go to his bedroom and shut the door.

1:13:441:13:46

I'd be sitting downstairs. That's how I first heard him.

1:13:461:13:49

I'm quite a shy person. I'm not outgoing.

1:13:491:13:51

When I'm singing, it's just something else.

1:13:511:13:55

I haven't done an audition like this before.

1:13:591:14:02

It is important to me. To be doing this as a day job would be amazing.

1:14:031:14:08

It's a dream.

1:15:321:15:35

# Oh, when you believe in things that you don't understand

1:15:361:15:42

# Then you suffer

1:15:421:15:46

# Superstition ain't the way

1:15:461:15:51

# No, no, no, no, no. #

1:15:511:15:57

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

1:15:571:15:59

Wow, wow.

1:16:071:16:08

I have to wait for this place to calm down.

1:16:101:16:12

That was out of the box incredible. Absolutely.

1:16:121:16:16

CHEERING

1:16:161:16:18

All I got to say is, I turned around in the first bar of that song

1:16:181:16:22

cos I could hear from the get-go that you have what it takes to win this competition.

1:16:221:16:25

You are incredible. APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

1:16:251:16:29

It's just a privilege. All four of you turned around

1:16:301:16:34

and believed in my voice, you know?

1:16:341:16:37

-First of all, we Welsh people have to stick together.

-Get the violins out!

1:16:411:16:47

You have a great voice and that's what this show is all about.

1:16:471:16:50

You're selling it well, as well.

1:16:501:16:52

As I said, we got to stick together, so...

1:16:521:16:55

Spectacular voice, I have worked with a lot of people in my life and I know

1:16:591:17:04

what to do with an artist like you, I know how to couple it with great music.

1:17:041:17:08

-I would love to have you on my team.

-Thanks.

1:17:081:17:10

APPLAUSE

1:17:101:17:14

-Hello.

-Hello.

-The music came in and I was like, "please, please,

1:17:161:17:19

"have amazing vocals", and you did.

1:17:191:17:21

You're the reason I came on this show, to find people that can sing!

1:17:211:17:25

Yeah.

1:17:251:17:27

CHEERING

1:17:271:17:29

What I do know is if you are on my team

1:17:291:17:32

I am going to make you work that voice.

1:17:321:17:34

CHEERING

1:17:341:17:37

Come on then, which one are you going to choose?

1:17:391:17:43

-I have...

-You say Danny, that's what you say.

-What do you reckon, guys?

1:17:441:17:50

AUDIENCE SHOUTS

1:17:501:17:57

I admire all four of you massively. You are all amazing.

1:17:581:18:02

I am going to go with...Jessie.

1:18:131:18:17

CHEERING

1:18:171:18:21

Hello!

1:18:251:18:26

That's what I do. Ha-ha!

1:18:261:18:30

He picked me!

1:18:431:18:45

CHEERING

1:18:451:18:49

-A ladies' man.

-That's all it is, of course.

1:18:491:18:53

That was insanely good. Do you realise that?

1:18:541:18:59

Just feels bonkers, to be honest with you. Can't believe it.

1:19:011:19:05

Hasn't sunk in quite yet.

1:19:051:19:06

It's been another amazing round of auditions

1:19:101:19:13

and the coaches have battled hard to claim their artists.

1:19:131:19:16

We have a mission and that's to take our singers out and win.

1:19:161:19:19

Here is how their teams of ten look now.

1:19:191:19:22

Tom secured three more singers and has six.

1:19:221:19:25

Will landed two more and has a total of three.

1:19:251:19:29

My team right now is pretty fresh.

1:19:291:19:31

Jessie snapped up two more and has five of her ten vocalists.

1:19:311:19:35

Danny picked up another three artists and has four altogether.

1:19:351:19:39

I am pretty much the team to watch now.

1:19:391:19:42

Next week in the blind auditions, the spectacular singing continues.

1:19:421:19:45

Now is the time for me to push singing to the forefront of my life.

1:19:451:19:50

This competition is quite scary.

1:19:501:19:53

The coaches clash.

1:19:531:19:55

I am not going to be telling you what to do.

1:19:551:19:57

Strings and orchestra.

1:19:571:19:58

-We probably share the same record collection.

-We eat the same soup.

1:19:581:20:02

Don't trust people that wear denim on denim.

1:20:021:20:05

As the battle to find the country's best new vocalist gets even hotter.

1:20:051:20:09

-It's getting really tense now.

-It's on!
