When Coaches Waited Until the Very Last Second! | The Voice

Don't it feel like heaven right now? Don't it feel like something from a dream? Yeah, I've never known nothing quite like this Don't it feel like tonight might never be again? Baby, we know better than to try and pretend No one could have ever told me about this I said, yeah, yeah Yeah, the waiting is the hardest part Every day you see one more car Take it all with faith, you take it to the heart The waiting is the hardest part Oh, don't let it kill you, baby Don't let it get to you Don't let it kill you, baby Don't let it get to you I'll be your bleeding heart I'll be your crying fool Don't let this go too far Don't let it get to you The waiting is the hardest part Every day you get one more yard Take it all with faith, you take it to the heart The waiting is the hardest part Well, look at that. An 11th hour surprise. No, no, it wasn't. We've been talking about it. That was not like a sneaky move or anything like that? I'm cool with it. I'm cool with it. No, he was like, why are we not turning around? That seemed like sneaky as hell. It wasn't. What's your name, man? My name is Bay Simpson from Muscle Shoals, Alabama. Muscle Shoals! I need to know about growing up in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. People don't know it's a legendary musical place. So tell us about what the music was like for you growing up. My mom's a singer. Stepfather's a hit songwriter. My dad's a drummer. So I was always in Fame Studios as a kid. It's in your bones, you know, rock and roll is in your bones. I'm so glad you think that. I've never really heard anyone do a Petty song. I mean, like a couple of them, the big ones. But that one said something about you, which I really took to. So I'm really happy that it happened the way that it did. A, because I don't have to fight against them. But B, because the tone and the way you delivered certain parts of that vocal really showed me an understanding of, you know, rock and roll music. That's right. And so knowing that you know it is enough for me to be like, you know what, this dude is going to be awesome. He's going to be different than everybody on the show. I'm super happy I snuck in and got you at the last second and didn't behave like an idiot. I'm pretty sure we're going to have a lot of taste in common and I'm just really excited to find out more. I hope so, man. Thank you. Welcome to the show. Thank y'all so much. Since childhood, Tyler James and his best friend thought they'd be singing together forever. But last year, all that came to an end. My name is Tyler James. I am 30 years old and I'm a singer-songwriter. When I was a teenager, my best friend was Amy Winehouse. We became friends when we were like 12, 13. We both went to the same school. We've been best friends ever since then. We were like two peas in a pod. We were like two halves of the same person. Unfortunately, last summer, worst day of my life, Amy died. And my whole life changed. Now, I mean, she's here. She's here with me. I know that. But it's about me finding my own feet. And the only way for me that I'm ever really going to find that is through music, is through singing. This competition is about me building up my confidence for myself. He's very important to me. There's a lot riding on this. And I watch them throw away again So I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay Watching the tide roll away Ooh yeah Sitting on the dock of the bay Wasting time, yeah Looks like nothing's gonna change Everything still remains the same I can't do what Some people tell me to do So I guess I'll remain the same, yeah Sitting here resting my bones And this loneliness won't leave me alone 3,000 miles I roam Just to make this dock my home So I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay Watching the tide roll away Ooh, sitting on the dock of the bay Wasting time What's your name? My name is Tyler James. First off, I wanna say thanks for hitting that, topping it off on that high note, that falsetto at the end. Through your whole performance, you sounded really good. And that last falsetto thing that you did showed your range and how smooth you can be at the same time. And you're awesome. Thanks, man. Hey. You alright? Yeah, just nervous. You shouldn't be nervous. I really enjoyed it. And I'm really happy that you and Danny go to the same hairdressers. As old as the case may be. How do you do that? I don't know, hairspray, I guess. Remember when I had hair like that? Look what you've got to look forward to. Oh, thanks. No, I really enjoyed it. I know that song very well, though. And maybe I'm so used to the Otis Redding version. And I knew Otis Redding. He was a great guy, by the way. I know a lot of people. But I know the song so well, it's hard for me to judge you singing that song. But I liked it. So, you're on my team. Cool, man. Thank you. Well, I know I'm gonna be I'm gonna be the man Who wakes up next to you When I grow up Yeah, I know I'm gonna be I'm gonna be the man Who goes alone with you But I would walk 500 miles I would walk 500 miles I would be the man Who walks up at your door When I'm working Yeah, I know I'm gonna be I'm gonna be the man Who's working hard for you When the money comes in for the work Come on, Tom. Come on, Tom. Turn right. Come on. But I would walk 500 miles I would walk 500 miles I would be the man They can't not turn. Who walks up at your door So, what's your name? My name's Daniel Duke. I thought you did a great job with it because, you know, when the record came out, it was like a novelty record. Yeah. But what you did with it was something completely different. You made more out of the song. You made the song more credible than what I thought of it anyway. Wow. You know, I... Thank you. It was a unique thing that you did. I liked that. You did a great job with it and I really enjoyed it. Thank you, thank you. You're that captivating thing that everybody looks for to want to kind of feel good and comfortable. Does that make any sense? It sounds amazing. Thank you. Yeah, it's almost like, it's almost, you know, you captivated me and you made me feel like I was the only person in the whole room that you were singing to and that's why I turned around. Thank you very much. Thank you. I felt the same way. Yeah, you seem like a very nice guy and I'm happy that you're on the show and you sung that song ever so gently and demonstrated people that love music and they do it not because they want to get rich, not because they want to be famous, but because I play this guitar and I sing from my heart and I sing for my family and my friends and I just want to make the world wonderful for however long you're singing and thank you for being one of those angels. Thank you. That means an awful lot. Thanks so much. Thanks for turning around. Yeah, it's a tough choice. If you were on my team, I wouldn't want to go and change you. I wouldn't want to try and make you into something that you would feel uncomfortable with, but if I thought that you could do something and maybe you wouldn't think, you know, that you could do it, I would like to hear you try it. Yeah, you'd push me. Yes, so if you were with me, you'd have an interesting musical experience. Wow, okay. Well, that's a hell of a sell, but I haven't got anybody like you on my team. Thank you. I got a feeling that you already know who you're going to pick. You're just being very, very nice. Then I'm going to go up to the person you're going to pick and I'm like, wow, that was special. Then he's going to say, oh, you know, like that, right? So you and Tom are going to be so awesome. Yes, I'm going to pick Sir Tom Jones. It's great what you did with that song. That song is a whole new thing for me now. How old are you? I'm 24. Oh. I have a little tip. My twin is coming up in the competition. You have a twin? You got twins? We'll have a lot of fun, believe me, and it'll be great. Make some noise. So cute. She's a twin. Twins are coming. It's going to be interesting. Bring a coffee in the morning She brings me inner peace I'll take her out to fancy restaurants She takes the sadness out of me I love you when her mind wanders And she loves you when I stay at home I know when she's lost and she knows when I feel alone From all my years and graces I'm chasing There's only one I choose And it's pointless without you From all my years and graces To the little things I do I'm looking for There's only one I choose And it's pointless When your legs don't work like they used to before Can't sweep you off of your feet Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love Swing, that's good, that's good, swing. Will your eyes still smile from your cheek Cause darling I will be loving you Till we're 17 And baby my heart can still fall out Hard at 23 I've been mysterious ways And maybe just a touch of her hand Tell me I'm falling in love with you every single day And I just wanna tell you Who I am Honey now I'm in love Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars Thinking out loud Baby we found love Around where we are Thank you so much Hi mate Hello How are you? I'm really good thanks That was really good Thank you very much And I didn't turn What's your name again? My name's Jake Shake Shaft Jake Shake Shaft Yeah That's a tongue twister It is Jake Shake Shaft You've got a rockstar name already so that's half way there And yeah it was great It's all there I haven't got a good reason for not turning cause I thought it was really good I overthought it but I thought it was really good You're through to the next round with one of these three With one of these three fantastic people And also we do a thing where we give constructive criticism but I ain't got any so it was really good Thank you very much So you sound a lot older You have this maturity I thought you were going to be like my age which is still kind of young It's ironic cause I look 12 Yeah you look about 13 That's a push But you have a great tone Thank you And I think you on team Will would be pretty awesome Breathe Just breathe I was going to say I still haven't got over this Yeah Hi Hello I do find a similarity to your voice with Ed Sheeran so that it's a bad thing because he is amazing and a good friend of mine And that performance you should be really proud of but I just really want to work with you to see what you could sound like if you did something that was out of your comfort zone You do sound really mature and I think that you'd probably murder it Well I know Ed Sheeran and I just did a couple of shows with him and he's a great songwriter but I heard something different in what you did You have a distinctive sound to your voice You're not only a unique singer you put a feeling in there that I felt and that's very important but you don't have to sing in a certain way to please me You just have to sing great and you did Thank you so very much Did you have an idea on who you would like to be your coach before you came? I did, it was you It's a bromance Oh well then really let's let's leave you go then Alright, see you later Thank you very much for turning around I really, really do appreciate it Thank you very much Thank you People are going to love you Thank you so much for turning around Don't worry You're in the group Yeah, it's great Really Well done Have fun See you soon Have fun Good He did sound honest, didn't he? Yes You see the muscles Yeah I was looking at his muscles though What do you think? There's a lot going on here Here it is Yes, okay Oh, f**k yes Awesome It's really good God I love it Awesome It's how we do What John Wayne do If you want it Take it I should have said it before Try to hide it Fake it I can't pretend anymore I only want Come on, let's go Come on, push the button Come on What's your name? I'm Alicia I'm 17 I'm from Michigan and I'm a student from Birmingham How did you end up on here? I'm not too sure I'm glad I came here though I am I'm sorry That was really lovely and we all looked at each other and went Let's turn Yes And then you see your hair and it's dazzling Thank you I didn't turn around but I think you are fabulous When there's a live animated Pocahontas you know who's getting the role Really beautiful, crisp performance It was almost too perfect but that's a really good place to start in the sense that you know, we're all striving for that anyway and you're kind of like there How are you doing? I'm great, yeah You're nervous Yeah, it's a bit of a shock It didn't come across in your singing at all I mean, which is really strange to see you kind of like ball of nerves Now, I however I'm really nervous that I might not get you on my team and hence I've been waffling for the last 20 seconds and I can tell that George really wants to say something I'm just going to keep talking I just want to warn you that they've got both of them have got similar singers to you so, you know, you've got to weigh that up when you It's true, you know What have I got that's similar? You've got some big voices Yeah, but very different stylistically No She's lying I've done this for a couple of years and these two are new and I'm starting to recognize their pitches already and they're really good What about yours? Oh, I can do Ricky's Go on then Hold on, can somebody give me some fake eyelashes so I can blink my eyes? Thing is, they're really good George has sold hundreds of millions of records Paloma's one of the most successful female artists in the world right now, right? And that is a real draw I just promise you that if you repeat that I can remove all the obstacles in your way of going further on in the competition and not just that finding your dreams So there you go I would like to work towards finding who the real you is and what your influences are and showing your versatility and that's where I'd go with it Thank you I think the job of a coach is to find the right songs that will take you out of your comfort zone and, you know, looking at kind of the sort of career that you want beyond this Did you have in mind a person that you wanted to go with? Kind of Who was that? I'm kind of torn Alright, being torn is great There's nothing wrong with being torn You just need to go with your gut feeling and that's what I've done throughout my whole career It's time for you to be kind of brave, actually I think, you know, rather than sort of just going Oh, I know what I want and I'm going to stick to that You know, be brave Be brave Choose wisely Wolves in sheep's clothing I'm going to go with Callum O'Kane Good luck I'm sorry, I'm sorry No, don't be sorry It's fine It's wonderful Come on, let's go Put me in wolves in sheep's clothing I'm going to take her down Well done Sorry, what are you sorry for? That wasn't even running with that Who's the wolf? Me or Ricky? Or both? Me Oh, you're the wolf in sheep's clothing? Apparently But isn't that just like a wolf with wool trousers? Does it have to be like sheep, sheep? I don't know what she means I think she's just being metaphorical Oh, okay I'm sorry, I'm sorry I didn't mean that Wow Oh my God And I told myself that I'd be strong And dreaming when they're gone Babe I'm standing in an unknown place A place I feel safe You show the light So to stop me you turn to stone And shining when I'm alone And then I told myself that I'd be strong And dreaming when they're gone So to stop me you turn to stone And shining when I'm alone Hi, my name's Joe Woolford I'm 19 years old and I'm from North Wales Is that blasphemy? Not necessarily Don't give up hope yet Listen, you got three turns These two have to duke it out with the King of Wales Because the conspiracy is Mr. Jones here is the ruler of all singers of Wales Everyone in Wales loves you, Tom Everyone in Wales loves you Good luck, guys Hey, mate Are you okay? I'm more than okay I had a little moment with Ricky I was like, I love him I like it He said, I'm gonna turn I said, no! And then I turned and then he turned straight away Your lights didn't stop because you got three lights right here I can't thank you enough Thank you all so much That's a good thing Thank you so much You don't know how much it means to me, everyone Seriously That song is one of my favourite songs and I haven't heard a guy singing it before And you really did it justice Thank you And you really captivated what it meant to be the only person on that stage and you I'm getting so nervous because I now have to fight against Tom and I don't know what else to say apart from please pick me because I'm the only girl and also we make so much beautiful music together Hello, Rita Hello Yeah, but I can't compete with that So, you know Thank you for coming here today Thanks for having me Now, North Wales Yes What part of North Wales? It's called It's a county called Danbushire Yeah, yeah A little town called Rithyn Alright The thing that came through to me more than anything else was your determination You know, you You got a little shaky towards the end there but that's nerves I understand that But but apart from that I loved what I what I was listening to Thank you I'm not pushing the Welsh connection here but No, but I just love what you do, so Thank you so much I really appreciate it Hi, are you okay? Hi, how are you doing? I'm alright now Relieved I think everyone's kind of discounted the fact that I'm going to fight for this And it's a tough fight because obviously Pretty Girl King of Wales Now, I'm not the most famous person on this line-up I'm not even the most famous person in the audience And I might not have many interesting names in my phone book And I'm not even that busy And I can't offer you a lot of things that they can But what I can offer you is all of me all of my time Everything I know to try and make you a great performer It's literally probably the best thing I've ever done is perform in front of the likes of you lot You're all amazing and it's literally going to be such a hard choice for me And also you're what I've been waiting for as well Welcome to Be Welsh What a choice man Thank you all so much I've made my decision And like I said thank you all so much But I'm going to go with Rita Great choice by the way She's lovely She's a great girl Thank you so much Go and celebrate You were incredible Thank you very much He was amazing It was obvious he was amazing And I'm getting pretty good at pitching Ricky it works on women but you can't do that to boys You can't do that What? The whole vulnerable I wanted it That was the truth He was good wasn't he? I'm extremely extremely happy that you picked me It's an advantage when you come from the same place as the contestant But it doesn't always work
