1 .
.
there were some amazing battles.
Come on! Some of the singers, their dream was realised.
Who is the winner of the battle? Jamie.
Clara.
Truly.
Dannii.
I gotta go with Mo.
For others, it was the end of the road.
I'm so sorry.
But for some it was a lifeline.
You are now available for a steal.
Yes! Yeah-eah-eah! GAVIN: Tonight, the battle rages on.
Bring it.
Whoa! # Waaah! # # Aaah! # Stay! You know, it's my thing, man.
It is time for you to make your decision.
This is the worst part.
They both deserve to be here.
What do I do? That's Jennifer and Will.
Is it time? It will be epic! Aaah! This is the battles! You guys have a steal left.
Your strategy? steal.
i.
am! There's somebody I wanna steal.
From who? I don't know yet.
It's between Tom, Gavin and Jennifer.
I'll definitely be listening and looking and prepared to steal somebody.
Yeah.
You only get one steal.
It's important to make a smart decision.
I do have one I'm waiting for.
I cannot wait to see what happens.
Make some noise for our coaches! Let's get ready to battle! It is crunch time for Team Gavin.
Hi, everyone.
Hello.
OK, team, this is the part where you go up against each other.
It sort of breaks my heart, but Carter, you will do battle against Tanya.
You will both be singing Superstition by Stevie Wonder.
This is a competition.
I've seen his audition.
This guy has got pipes for England! She's quite experienced, more experienced than me.
My strongest point is the power of my voice.
# I could stay awake just to The blind audition went quite well.
I think my family and my girlfriend were more nervous than me! They were all grasping hold of each other and were like #.
.
I don't wanna close my eyes # I was quite chuffed when I got three coaches turn round.
Three! I was taken away, I was took back by it.
It was unexpected.
You nailed it.
You should be proud of yourself.
Yeah, I'm happy to be on Gavin's team.
I'm glad I made that choice.
My blind audition was quite a big occasion for me.
He fills me up Singing in front of will.
i.
am, it was quite a surreal and ironic moment.
A funny story.
I co-wrote one of your songs.
Huh? The Hardest Ever.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
That was the first time I'd met him, as well.
Awkward! I should have turned around.
You should have turned around.
But I was so relieved Gavin wanted me on his team.
Tanya, she's incredible.
I just think she's so magical.
I have every faith in her.
# Very superstitious Tanya, when she first sang the song, she was actually really struggling.
#.
.
in things that you don't understand then you suffer Yay, yeah I came to realise that, for her, it really is a case of uncovering her heart.
Tanya, you have this quality that can elevate people and you should believe in yourself more than you did in that version.
Yeah.
So I had a few little bumps.
But this is a rehearsal.
If there's anywhere that you should mess up, it should be in the rehearsal.
And then you suffer, ooh! Carter has a voice like a raging volcano.
He's unbelievable.
Your voice is But But it's like you're gonna get a speeding ticket before you've even left your driveway.
You don't have to be loud to make a point.
Just think about seducing people.
I know I've got a loud voice.
I've always just went full pelt-out.
As long as I get control over it and go from there, I think I'll be all right.
Good luck.
This means so much to me.
I just wanna go out there and just give my best performance ever.
It's make or break time now, isn't it? It's Carter If I could win, it would honestly change my life for ever.
I've tried other jobs.
Doesn't interest me.
I've always gone back to this.
.
.
head-to-head with Tanya Lacey! I believe I have a career in music.
It's torture at times, but I'm still obsessed with my dream.
# Oh, very superstitious # The writing's on the wall # Yeah # Very superstitious # Ooh # Ladder's about to fall # Yeah # Thirteen-month-old baby Come on, Carter! Come on! # Broke the looking glass # Seven years of bad luck # The good things in your past # Oh, yeah # When you believe in things that you don't understand # Then you suffer BOTH: # Superstition ain't the way # No-o, very superstitious # Wash your face and hands # Yeah, yeah, yeah # You don't wanna save me # Uhh # Sad is my song BOTH: # When you believe in things that you don't understand # Then you suffer # Superstition ain't the way # When you believe in things that you don't understand # Then you suffer # Ohh! # Superstition ain't the way # Waaah! Ohh! Carter and Tanya, everyone! Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho.
Hi.
You seemed to love that.
It was a lot of fun.
You guys were amazing.
Thank you.
Er, Will, what did you think? It was a unique pairing.
Um And I liked how they blended, their worlds being so far apart.
It was great.
I liked it a lot.
Thank you.
To put two singers like that together I mean, is something.
The performance was really, really good and I loved the choice, I loved the whole thing.
Equally as strong as one another, I think.
Gavin, the choice is all yours.
Whoo.
First off, the way you both sing, the way you both are, it just was incredible to watch, I felt really proud to have you on my team.
It makes it really hard for me, because you had different qualities.
Tanya, you sounded amazing.
Thank you.
You performed amazingly, you're very beautiful, very charismatic.
Thank you.
I've got my man-mountain Carter there and he's just a force of nature.
He's unbelievable.
So it's really difficult.
Really, really, really difficult.
This is not fun.
MAN IN AUDIENCE: Carter! Carter! Gavin, who is the winner of the battle? This is the worst part.
It's the worst part.
The winner of the battle is .
.
Carter.
Cheers.
OK, Tanya, you're now available for a steal.
Will? JENNIFER: Oh, my God, he's done it! I knew it, I knew it, I knew it! Yes! Good on you.
I knew it! I knew it! I'm so happy.
Thank you.
I'm so happy, so happy.
I've been waiting for Tanya for a while.
I'm super happy that Tanya is in my team.
I think it's rare that you see two competitors at this stage of the battle walking off the stage both smiling and feeling as though they've won.
And I'm glad that Will can see something in me that he wants to nurture and cultivate.
So I think everything worked out really well.
Oh, no! Under pressure? Yes.
Of course Team JHud is the only one left with a steal.
I just hope I get to steal the one I wanna steal.
This is your team? Yeah.
I got that special sign.
I know you do.
Team Will! Who is that on your shirt? Oh, that's Hayley's team? Oh, shucks! Hayley you are going to be battling .
.
Jaz.
I'm Jazmin Sawyers, I'm 22 and I'm a professional long jumper.
Give me a reason to love you Athletics is my first love, but it's not the only thing in my life.
Getting that chair turn from not just somebody but will.
i.
am really did cement in me how much I want this, how much I want to be in this competition, how much I want to win it.
You went to the Olympics? Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wow.
Check you out.
That's dope.
Good luck.
My name is Hayley Eccles, I'm 22 years old.
My dad auditioned before me.
But he didn't get a chair turned, which was heart-breaking to see.
I think that turned into a bit of motivation and a bit of anger # And I'll tell you what .
.
that came through my voice.
#.
.
found # So I got a turn.
Yes! And the song you're gonna be singing is Hold My Hand by Jess Glynne.
Ohh.
Yes.
But I hope you don't hold hands while you're battling.
It's a battle.
I was a bit gutted when Will said that me and Hayley were gonna be singing against each other.
We've become friends and to know that I've got to go up against her for one spot, that's really sad.
At the end of the day, somebody wants to win and somebody is gonna be sad if they go home.
It's not like you're gonna say, 'No, it's all right, I'll go home, I'm your friend, you stay.
' That ain't gonna happen.
This ain't the Hugger Games.
BOTH: # And so, darling, won't you hold my hand? Yeah, so they were singing the song all like, 'Yeah, we're friends, oh, my gosh, yeah.
' What is this song about? Then hold me and tell me everything's OK? Who is she talking to? BOTH: Hm Me and Jazmin actually stopped.
We're smiling singing some of these lyrics when they've actually got a lot more meaning to them, they're quite upsetting.
You guys were singing and smiling, when it's really a So I asked the question, clueless, so you can tell me.
Now the audience wants that, too.
Yeah.
You fell into my trap.
It's time for friends to become foes.
It's Hayley Eccles I've always been brought up to be a little fighter and that's what I am.
I'll give it all and I'm not going home.
.
.
battling Jazmin Sawyers! Hayley is a tough customer, but competition is something that I'm used to in my everyday life and I have to go out there and win tonight.
WOMAN: Go, Team Will! # Standing in a crowded room and I can't see your face # Put your arms around me, tell me everything's OK # Break my bones, but you won't see me fall # No-no-no # The rising tide will rise against them all # Darling, hold my hand # Oh, won't you hold my hand? # Cos I don't wanna walk on my own any more, won't you understand? # Cos I don't wanna walk alone # I'm ready for this, there's no denying I'm ready for this # Won't stop me falling # I'm ready for this # I need you all in BOTH: # I'm ready for this, so, darling, won't you hold my hand? # Go, Hayley! Hayley and Jazmin! Er, Tom, what did you think? You sounded very similar.
Mm-hm.
If I had to pick, it would be very, very difficult, but I think I would lean towards Jazmin, I think.
Thank you, Tom.
Jennifer, what about you? Do you think Is there a clear winner out of these two? Once again, I'm glad I don't have to make that decision! I think you ladies did a great job.
OK, Will, it's time for you to make your decision.
Hayley! All right.
So, erm it's really hard to see someone leave and, if we could, we'd all have teams filled with a thousand people.
Um But those aren't the rules.
Who I felt - Hayley! Hello? Yeah? Will, who is the winner of the battle? Jazmin! Jazmin! Yeah, so both you guys sounded spectacular.
But the person going through is is Hayley.
Knowing that I'm gonna be in the live shows is unreal and I don't think it'll sink in for a few days at least.
OK, Jazmin, you're now available for a steal.
Gavin and Tom have used their steals.
So that means only Jennifer is an option.
No pressure.
Jennifer, I If I would love to carry on in this competition with you as my coach.
I've worked hard up to this point and I'll continue to.
I know how to compete, I know how to fight and I will do that for you, if you give me the opportunity, I'd love to.
Go on, Jennifer! I'm so sorry.
I wish you the best of luck.
I'm so sorry, Jazmin.
Thank you so much.
You've been fantastic.
Thank you for taking part.
We've loved having you.
Thank you.
Please show your support for Jazmin! This is why you don't become friends with the person you battle.
I'll miss you.
I gave everything I'd got and it just weren't enough today, but at least it's to Hayley, so I'm chuffed for her, but I'm gutted, I didn't want to leave today.
Was that any pressure for you? Yes.
I felt bad for you.
I was like that sort of pressure.
It's getting tougher and tougher.
I'm going to the lives! Hayley's Comet.
She came, she conquered.
Although Jazmin did a great job, she just didn't jump far enough.
She can't steal her own! So there's no steals in this one.
Because if I could, I would just keep what I got, I don't need to steal nothing.
So Jack over there A drum roll.
Come on! Jack will be paired up with Drumming, drumming, drumming! .
.
Kit! Deco! You're as smooth I can't believe I'm here, it's crazy.
I was a bit nervous.
Just kind of taking it all in I think was it wasa lot, but to have Jennifer turn for me, I think that helped with my confidence.
I must be all right if I got a turn from Jennifer.
Yeah! Yeah! I never hold back, but, with Kit Rice, there is many gears.
There is unknown gears.
I'm known for pushing the boundary.
In my blind audition, I went to notes higher than I thought I could go.
Music is like magic to me and whoever's spell wins over Jennifer, good for them.
Sing it for me.
I wanna see this happen! I can't wait! I wanna see what's gonna happen, too.
They are different, very different when it comes to their personalities.
Kit has the absolute biggest personality.
# Crazy, this is crazy I can't believe I just sang for Jennifer Hudsonand she liked it! #.
.
oh-oh-oh-whoa # She didn't just like it, she loved it! Do you know how that last bit goes? Care for me, care for me Just that melody.
Yeah.
Jack doesn't even know whether he's coming or going, because he's like I wanted to just pull him to the side and see where his head was, cos he always looks like he's thinking about something or worried about something.
What's it like working with, er, Kit? He's such a big personality.
I was gonna say that, you beat me to it.
Well, just remember this is a show about 'the voice'.
When you're teamed up with others, like Kit or somebody who is very verbal and expressive in his speaking Yeah.
.
.
flip it and put it in your music.
Just work on trusting yourself.
OK.
# Why don't you be you? And I'll be me I'm hoping the nerves won't get the better of me.
I've just got to sing for my life.
He's gonna feel a bit nervous coming up against somebody who has been in the game for 20 years.
I'm excited to show the world the whole side of Kit Rice.
The battle is on.
Bring it.
# Hmmmmm-mmmm # Oooh-ooh-ooh-oooh! # It could all be so simple # But you'd rather make it ha-a-a-a-ard # Lovin' you is like a battle # And we both end up with sca-a-a-a-rs # Tell me who I have to be-e-e-e # To get some reciprocity, yeah # See no-one loves you more than me-e-e-e # And no-one ever will # No, no-o-o-o-o-o # No matter how I think we grow # You always seem to let me know # It ain't working # It ain't working # It ain't working, yeah-eah-eah # It ain't working # And when I try to walk away # You hurt yourself to make me stay # And this is crazy # And this is crazy # Yeah, this is crazy, yeah-eah-eah # Care for me, care for me # I know you're there for me, there for me, there for me # Won't you be there for me-e-e-e? # Cry for me, cry for me # You said you'd die for me, give it to me, give it to me Why won't you live for me? Why won't you live for me? Ladies and gentlemen, Kit and Jack.
Ooh, look at Jennifer's face.
The pressure is really on you.
I mean, we all got to witness it.
How y'all really delivered.
But I hate so much that I put you two together because it means I gotta let one of y'all go.
Can I leave and they stay? Is that an option? No.
What was the name of the song? Ex-Factor.
Ex-Factor.
No, this is the boys! Just kidding.
Just I had to do it.
I had to do it.
Sorry.
Oh, gosh.
It does make it harder that one of you will be going through and one of you will be going home.
They did nothing wrong.
So they both deserve to be here.
Oh.
What do I do? If it were up to me, you both would stay here.
Erm Jennifer, who is the winner of the battle? What's it going to be? I gotta go with Jack.
So sorry, Kit.
I just want to say, Kit, if I had a steal, I'd steal you in heartbeat.
Cos you sing incredible.
You do.
Thank you.
You're all day, every day Rice, Rice, baby.
Thank you so much.
Thanks, Will.
ErJack, congratulations.
We will see you again in the live shows.
My God, Jack.
I know you will.
I'm not worried.
Jack has the talent.
I think he is a star.
It's about the full package.
I think he's a well-rounded package.
And I feel like he needs more time.
Whereas Kit is very experienced.
I feel like he'll be OK.
I really am sick about it.
I'm devastated.
Well, you made the wrong decision, girl.
Prove me wrong.
Prove me wrong.
Well, I'll see you at the top.
I know you will.
I know that.
That's why I'm not worried about you.
I know you will.
I really, really thought I was gone.
I can't believe it, man.
I'm still trying to like process it all.
It's crazy.
Why? Why? I had to let him go.
I should have been able to keep both.
Sorry, Jen.
I'm so upset about it.
That's tough.
Ooh.
This battle round is hard.
I gotta slash my team in half.
But I'm like the only one with the steal left.
So I just want them all to step their game up.
What do you want to hear? # I don't like Livin' under your spotlight ALL: Livin' under your spotlight # Just because you think I might # Find somebody worthy Where you at, Will? # Oh, I don't like # Livin' under your spotlight Where you at, Tom? # Just because you think #.
.
I might # You won't have to worry Take me to the bridge.
# You oughta be ashamed of yourself # What the hell do you think you're doing? # Lovin' me # Lovin' me so wrong # Cos baby, all I do is try # To show you that you're mine # One and only guy # No matter who may come along # Open your eyes, cos baby, baby, baby I don't lie # Oooh-ooh-ooh # Ooh-oooh # Treat me right # You won't have to worry # Oooh, yeah! I don'tI don't I don't like itlike it Now I'm clapping for y'all.
Was I even close to the right key? I was in the right key? Yeah.
You were hot! Time for the next battle and it's Team Will.
Ah, give me a cuddle.
Give me a cuddle.
My name's Michelle John.
I'm 43 and I'm a backing singer.
# This is a man's w-w-w-world My blind audition went quite well, actually.
# Man made boat for the water Just like Noah made the Ark I'm not used to sort of being out there by myself.
That was a very real moment when I'm, like, "OK.
" It's just me.
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! My name's Tim Gallagher.
I'm 23 years old and I'm a singer-songwriter.
On the blind audition, I remember walking out on stage and I'm, like, "Oh, wow.
I don't know how I'm gonna do this.
" But as soon as the band kicked in Do you mind if I was just really in the moment.
Yeah.
I turned first.
Sent the signal from the brain to the elbow to the fingertip to hit hand, to hit button, to turn chair.
I'm gonna go with Will.
I paired Michelle and Tim because a lot of folks in my team are nervous about Michelle's experience, her vocal capabilities, so Tim.
That's the one who could stand the heat.
The song you're going to be singing is by Martha Reeves and The Vandellas, Nowhere To Run.
I'm gonna try to outperform her but she's a massive powerhouse.
# But you've become a part of me, yeah! # How can I fight a lover? They're both awesome.
He's not gonna hold back.
He's going to force her to push so it's about how you control it.
My natural instinct, the battle in me, wants to go, "Rrrrrrrrrr.
" I can't get over Can we control the rattle on just the tail end of it? This is the battle of the riffs but you can easily go from terrific to horrific.
It's a battle not a duet.
Tonight, I'm here to shine for myself, to do this for myself.
This is everything to me and I am gonna do everything I possibly can to come off that stage as the winner.
# It's a thin line # It's a thin line Between love and hate # Nowhere To Run # It's not love I'm a-running from # But the heartache I know will come # Cos I know you're no good for me # But you've become a part of me # When I look in the mirror to comb my hair # I see your face just a-smiling there # Nowhere to run # No, no, no, no, no # Nowhere to run # No, no, no, no, no # Nowhere to run # Whooo-oo-oooh! # Nowhere to hide # I know you're no good for me # But you've become a part of me # Now how can I fight a love # That should not be? # When it's so deep, so deep # So-o deep # Your love reaches so high I can't get over it # It's so wide, I can't get around it, no # Nowhere to run # I got nowhere # Nowhere to hide # I got nowhere # I just can't get away from you, baby # Can't get away, baby # Nowhere to hide # Oooh-ooh-ooh! # Got nowhere to run No-o-o-o-where to hide Great! Michelle and Tim, everybody.
Tom, let's start with you cos you did have a massive grin on your face I did.
.
.
throughout that performance so I assume you enjoyed it.
Loved it.
That was for Tom.
I was, like, "Tom's gonna love that.
" Yeah, well, that's soul music.
It's my thing, man.
It's my thing.
No, really.
It was tremendous.
Thank you.
I'm with Tom.
That's my type of singing right there.
I just don't know what you're doing with these people singing like that.
Exactly.
You don't know what I got in my cupboards.
I got lots of stuff.
Good job, Will.
Wow.
Like, Tim, you was singing down and then you was singing down.
And I love how you tipped down in them shoes.
You did that, honey.
It's just It gave me life.
It was amazing.
Will, it's time for you to make your decision.
AUDIENCE CHANTS: Michelle, Michelle, Michelle! Michelle! Michelle! Michelle! So, the winner of this battle .
.
is Michelle.
Thank you, Will! Congratulations.
Thank you.
Go on, Michelle! Don't tell me you've lost your voice now.
I just want to say Tim is an amazing singer.
AndI don't know, man.
I'm just excited and I'm just ready to sing.
I'm just ready to sing.
Good cos you're gonna.
Thank you.
You took it to the top.
That was fresh.
Thank you so much.
It means everything to me.
Thank you so much.
Is it time? Is it time? AUDIENCE: Steal! Is it time? Is it time? Hit it! Tim, you're now Yeah! Well done.
He is so good.
I can't believe you let him go.
Man, that boy can sing.
Yeah, he's really good.
He can sing.
Yeah.
Well, all the steals have gone so this is it.
Come on, Tom! How you feeling? At the moment, a bit nervous.
I'm Ryhann Thomas, I'm 28 years old and I'm from Birmingham.
I work in a factory making car parts.
It's justrobotic.
I swear-ar-ar-ar-ar-ar The feeling I got when Tom turned was amazing.
Tom's a veteran in the game so to have him acknowledge that I have the ability to develop and become something is overwhelming.
I believe in you.
We're gonna have a great time.
Capital B, to use a Will expression, were fresh.
BOTH: # When Jesus sings # I didn't think the chairs would turn and I was getting ready to, like, "It's OK, we did the best we could.
" And then It was massive relief.
We were just buzzing, weren't we? Yeah.
I paired Capital B and Ryhann because they sound soulful.
So I think it's a good pairing.
And you'll be singing, I Wanna Be The Only One by Eternal.
Ooh.
To be honest, I didn't know it.
Did you know it? I had no idea.
No.
And we were, like, "What is this song?" Perfect, perfect song choice.
Yes! I think I'm gonna do a smashing job on that.
Do you know it at all? No.
Me neither.
I've no idea where I'm coming in.
I'm sorry.
The first piano rehearsal was a disaster.
It was # I wanna be the only one to hold you The only one The only one We need to impressSir Tom.
I'm not happy with the fact he watched us stumble through a song.
Next time he sees it, it needs to be a lot better.
# The only one, baby # Baby, yeah! The only one I am Now that we've had some time, we're just so much more confident.
It's really good.
Really good.
We love it.
This battle has got real.
It's time to put your boots on, get your shin pads out.
Let's play.
It sounds like a group, doesn't it? We could form a super group with Ryhann.
Ryhann And His Sisters.
Capital B are loving the fact they're singing with Ryhann.
But they've got to realise that it is a battle.
We don't want to beat Ryhann cos he's such a nice guy It's Ryhann Thomas.
.
.
but, at the end of the day, we have to.
Yeah.
We're going in to stay on Team Tom.
Capital B.
I'm doing this not just for myself but for my family.
Music has been this dream I've been wanting for my whole life.
I don't want to fail or lose it.
# Yeah! Ah! # Yes, I see you crying # Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah # And I feel your broken heart # Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah # I can feel you're hurting # Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah # Still you choose to play the part # If you let me be # If you let me be # I'll be all you need # All you ne-e-e-e-eed # Yeah # I wanna be the only one to hold you # Protect you from the rain # I wanna be the only one to soothe you # Erase all the pain # I wanna be the only one to love you, love you # Over again # I wanna be the only one # I wanna be the only one # The only one, the only one I am # The only one, the only one I am # Now you deserve a mansion # My Lord, you too # You can have the best of life # Sing it for me, girl # With all this I'll give you # Whoooo! # A pure love that gold can't buy # If you take a chance # If you take a chance # I'll be worth the cha-a-a-ance # Oooh-ooh-ooh # If you just love me, girl, yeah, yeah, yeah # You will gladly see # I'm all you need, yeah # I'm all you need # I wanna be the only one to hold you # Protect you from the rain ALL # I wanna be the only one to soothe you # Erase all the pain # I wanna be the only one to love you # Love you, love you # I wanna be the only one to hold you # Protect you from the rain # I wanna be the only one # The only one Key change! # I wanna be the only one # I wanna be the only one, baby! # I wanna be the only one The only one The only one I am! Well done, Ryhann.
EMMA: Ryhann and Capital B! Now, guys, Tom's decision is gonna be final.
Gavin? Thanks for making me go first Someone's got to.
Thank you.
I turned the chair for you guys.
I love Capital B.
I love your voices.
You guys look comfortable.
Really confident.
And it was a great performance.
Ryhann, when you came on I mean, for a while, it just looked like you were the star.
You were the main man.
Thank you.
Thank you.
You guys were really good.
Y'all worked together well.
It makes it hard to say, like, "Who would I pick?" I'm glad it's not on me.
It's on you, right, Tom? Yep.
Oh, good.
I think they sound great as they are.
The three of them.
And it makes it harder because it was a match made in heaven here.
But that's the problem that I have now.
Who do I keep and who do I? Who do I send home? Tom, who is the winner of the battle? This is the most difficult decision for me.
ButermI'm looking further down the line.
Cos we've got a long way to go yet.
So Erm Capital B.
Well done, girls.
Well done, girls.
Well done, girls.
Well done.
Literally, well done.
Well done.
Well done, girls.
OK? There's so many people that are just like, 'No!' I know.
I can't believe it.
Absolutely buzzing.
Although it breaks our heart to say goodbye to Rhyann, we wanted to go through and we have so we've got to be happy.
Put your hands together one more time for Rhyann.
RHYANN: I'm gonna take away a lot from this whole journey because look where I got to.
That was really tough.
For now it's back to the day job, but being on The Voice has given me the buzz and more confidence within myself to know that dreams can come true.
Well done to you.
Don't give up on your dreams.
Just give it a shot.
Phew! Tough.
That was a hard one, huh? Yeah.
It was very tough.
Ohhhhh.
I'll be ready.
Lizais paired with The one person I don't wanna get put with is Liza, because she's so powerful.
.
.
Georgie.
I was like, 'No!' They're very different but then they have similar undertones.
The blind audition was amazing.
Jennifer had, you know, shhhhuh and spun.
And I was like, 'Yeah!' cos Jennifer's like, 'Ahh!' You got me alone, babe! Fandabbytastic! # I can hear # A lark somewhere That girl is so like dead set on her jets.
# From major to minor You have that star power Star power.
.
.
to give jazz that presence in today's youth that it deserves.
Yeah, the feedback was fantastic.
I felt really good afterwards.
It was nice.
What do you guys think about the song choice? I already know this song.
We are singing Something by The Beatles.
# I don't wanna lose him now They wrote it and sang it in Abbey Road Studios.
I think the song is quite a tricky one.
I wouldn't have chosen it.
# You're asking me I actually got to sing this song before as a Shirley Bassey tribute.
# Oh, no-o-oh I think Liza's anxious about the fact that she gets to use her voice.
That's the thing Liza has to look out for, because come the battle rounds, she cannot afford to do anybody else but Liza.
# You're asking me will our love # Love grow She's a powerhouse.
I was intimidated.
Whoa, that's big! As much as I adore performing with Liza, it's got to be me.
I can't try and out-Liza Liza.
It's kind of tough, the dynamic of you two.
But I think the best thing I can say is just continue to hold onto your artistry.
I've been so completelyrelaxed this entire competition, but it has just hit me.
Georgie Braggins I'd be disappointed if I didn't get through the battle stage.
.
.
facing Liza Baker.
My aim tonight is to concentrate on just sounding like me.
They're like neck and neck with their passion, and they're both really good at it.
So how do you choose? That's my problem to figure out.
# Something in the way he moves # Attracts me like no other lover # Something in the way he moves me # I don't wanna leave him now # You know I believe in how # You're asking me will our love grow # I don't know, I don't know # Just stick around and it may show # I don't know, I don't know BOTH: # You're asking me, will our love grow # I don't know # I don't know # Just stick around and it may show # I don't know # I don't kno-o-o-ow # Just something in the way he moves # Oh-oh-ah-oh # Something in the way he smiles # Something in the way he moves # Oh, something in the way he moves BOTH: # Something # OK, so there are no steals left, which means the pressure is on.
Will, let's start with you.
Well, I think Georgie freshened it up.
I liked your approach to it and how you made it new.
That's great.
And you are something special.
I love all the sass.
So are you.
Even the flick of the finger when - Did you see the kick of the leg? And the kick of the leg.
I seen it all.
Just on your moves.
Oh, thank you so much.
You're awesome to watch and amazing to hear, so thank you so much.
So, Jennifer? The decision is down to you.
Oh, goodness, don't do this to me again.
Um .
.
I thought they were amazing.
I love that they stay true to themselves.
Liza, I'm glad that you had your moment.
You helped me find me, so thank you.
Georgie, you stand by what you believe in, and I respect that coming from both of you.
Uhwhich is why it makes it a very difficult decision for me.
It's time for you to make your decision.
Ohhh.
It's those lights again.
Whoo! Jennifer, who is the winner of the battle? Liza! Liza! Stop it, y'all, stop it! Agh! I feel like you both have passion in what you do.
But I felt as though this person, this genre, has not had its day.
So I'm gonna go with Georgie.
Were you expecting that? Not really, no.
One more time, please, for Georgie! Ahhhh! She made it! She made it! Stay true to yourself.
Yeah, that was great.
That was really something.
Thank you.
So, Liza, it is the end of your time on the show.
We have absolutely loved having you.
Thank you so much.
I really appreciated being here.
Everything is different now.
It's nice to actually have my own sound.
And I know what that sounds like now.
Liza, everyone! I'm a little bit upset I'm not through to the next round but I'm very, very grateful for being through to this round.
You've got to look at the positives in everything in life, you know? Oh, darling! I could hear you in the crowd.
She's a strong singer.
She is a very strong singer.
Oh, my goodness.
But that Georgie comes with somethingdifferent.
That was tough.
So, no more steals? None.
You either pick 'em or they gotta go home.
It's like a true battle, though.
It takes the safety net away.
Just imagine the nerves they're gonna have because they know, no safety net, like you said.
It's gonna be great.
It is a battle.
This is a chance to say, I could be a winner.
At this point in time this means everything.
I really want to impress Tom.
He's the one that turned around for me.
I want to show him I can win the competition for him.
# My momma don't like My name's Septimus, I'm 19 years old, from south east London.
The fact that Tom turned his chair around for me was like This still feels like I'm dreaming.
I have to watch it again just to feel like it's actually happening.
And I felt itright in there.
With Septimus, there's a vulnerability, I would say, in his voice.
It has a very honest sound to it.
I'm just still so grateful and happy.
I know that if I was to do it again, I could sing better, perform better.
I always want to learn, I want to improve.
Now I'm here, I want to just make my family proud.
I know that I can perform way better than I did at the blinds.
# Ohhh, and she never gives out My name is Craig Ward.
I'm 31, from Coatbridge, just outside Glasgow.
# She just changes her mind The moment when those three chairs turned Whoa! .
.
was an unbelievable little moment of euphoria.
My family have been a great support to me through thick and thin.
I've a beautiful wife and a happy child.
I'll never be ungrateful for what I've got.
As a kid, I do still remember lying in my room with my three brothers getting laughed at cos I was air-guitaring to songs in my sleep.
To come from that to this competition it makes me think, you know, there's a chance you could actually achieve that dream.
The song is I'm Yours .
.
by Jason Mraz.
ALL: Whoo! That's a good one.
In all honesty, the song choice, straightaway you go, Da-da-da-da, da-da da, da-da da And that's all the words you know.
I know the song well, so How do you feel? I know the song.
I don't know it as well as you might know it but But you will.
I will.
# Well, you done done me and you bet I felt it There's definitely a lot of work to be done because we're familiar with some parts but other parts we're trying to remember, how does this part go again? # Look into your heart and you'll find that the sky is yours # So please don't # La, la-la-la, la Obviously we lost our way a wee bit.
I think the phrasing was probably more challenging than I remembered.
BOTH: # Our fate Right.
You just have to watch the pitch, you know, that'syou get a pitchy there.
This song's challenging but I'm ready for challenges.
I'm gonna come back strong and then the next time we perform, maybe hopefully you might start seeing a winner.
I definitely don't feel safe with Septimus.
And I think it's gonna make for quite an interesting battle.
It's Septimus Prime! It's Craig Ward! Being up against Craig is gonna be a real battle.
I've always had to fight for everything in my life.
I've never let anything stop me from chasing my dreams.
Septimus is a great performer.
But I think when it comes to the voice, I can beat him.
The moment I hit the stage, I'm just gonna show Tom I'm the man you want.
I'm the man you need.
# Well, you done done me, you bet I felt it # I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted # I fell right through the cracks # Now I'm trying to get back, o-oh # Before the cool done run out I'll be giving it my best-est # Nothing's gonna stop me but divine intervention # I reckon it's again my turn # To win some or learn some BOTH: # But I won't hesitate # No more # No more # It cannot wait # I'm yours # Well, open up your mind and see like me # Open up your plans and dang you're free # Look into your heart and you'll find love, love, love # Listen to the music of the moment people dance and sing # We're just one big family # And it's our godforsaken right to be loved, loved, loved # Love # Oh, do-do-do, do-do # Do, do, do-do-do-do, do-do-do # Scooch on over closer to me # So I can nibble your ear BOTH: # But I won't hesitate # No more, no more # It cannot wait I'm yours Nice one, dude.
Nice one.
So there are no more steals left, so Tom's decision is final.
ErWill? I think they did great.
I think it was awesome, Craig.
It was great.
Thanks.
Septimus, your family must be, like, so proud of you.
Oh, yeah, they're here.
They're over there.
Thank you.
Love you guys.
No, seriously, cos your stage presence is amazing.
I can already see you at a show of your own.
Yeah, it's written all over you.
Thank you so much.
We love you, Septimus! Yeah, Septimus, you're just cool, like, really cool.
Like, I dig your swag.
And Craig, I love your voice.
It's so unique.
Thank you.
It seems as though y'all didn't forget it was a competition cos you bust your move over there, he bust his too I thought that was fresh.
When he did the Michael Jackson, slide over Butbut Craig didn't have Michael.
He did his own thing, though.
I think you both shine in your own way and I think you're very different.
It's a difficult choice to make.
Really difficult.
Septimus, I mean, he's a showman and he looks like he's meant to be up there.
And then you've got Craig, you know, who's a singer.
So, Tom, as you know, there are no steals available.
No.
So you know exactly what is at stake.
It is time to make your decision.
Who is the winner of the battle? You've got the one showman who looks like he's made for it on that stage.
And you've got Craig.
And this show is called The Voice.
So .
.
I have to go with Craig.
Septimus.
Well done.
Well done.
Thank you very much.
It's my pleaasure.
Congratulations.
You'll sing again in the live shows.
One more time for Craig, everyone.
Tom, thank you very much.
That's The Voice, Craig.
Congratulations.
I'm here to try and win the means to provide a good life for my family through music.
And winning tonight's battle actually feels like one step closer towards achieving that dream.
Can I just tell him one thing? That you are a superstar.
He is.
Thank you.
And you sing great.
Thank you so much.
If I had a steal, I would steal away as fast as I could and get you on my team.
You're gonna do fine.
Hands together, please, for Septimus.
I've left on a high note.
And just comments from the coaches were just fantastic.
You're gonna do great, you're gonna do great.
It was a hard decision to make, honestly.
It's not the end, you know? Like I said, pick myself up and keep going, because music is the dream and I willI will get there.
But he's got some flare, this kid.
Oh, I love that kid.
I would have chosen He looks great and he moves great.
He's a star.
And he's got time on his side.
He's got plenty of time.
It's sad to see the people go home, it always is but this is called The Voice.
That's where Craig shines.
He has a tremendous voice.
Next up, we're looking right at Team Will.
It's Jason Jones versus Lawrence Hill.
I'll see you on the other side.
Good luck, mate.
Good luck.
This next pairing is Lawrence against Jason.
I paired them up because Lawrence plays the guitar and sings well and he can put some fire on Jason.
To be paired with Lawrence will work well together.
We've both got a bit of a husk in our voice.
It's gonna be one hell of a battle.
I know I've got a voice.
I've always been a bit underconfident with it.
So to get the four turns, it's boosted my confidence big time.
It's probably the greatest moment of my life, if I'm honest with you.
If you're on my team, we going to the top of the mountain.
Yes, we are! I may be, like, the underdog, because of the whole accidental turn around, against Jason, he got four turn arounds.
For a long time, I felt quite .
.
ridiculed.
I pushed down on the button harder than I should, then I'm like, OK, but he is pretty good.
So meeting Will again, there was very much an elephant in the room.
We got to clear the air before we start cos obviously it was an accident.
It was a delightedaccident.
Was it? Oh, cool.
I'm really happy he's said I'm a valued member to his team.
That's kicked my butt for accidentally pressing my button.
Just wanted to kick it a little bit.
Will.
i.
am has chosen The Doobie Brothers' Long Train Runnin'.
How are you guys feeling about this song? I love the Doobie Brothers.
So I was so happy to get a song that I know.
They're so funky.
A challenge, yeah.
Why is it a challenge for you? Ermhmm.
When I first heard the song, I was a bit half and half.
BOTH: # Without love At first, Jason was a little uncomfortable cos it wasn't his style but didn't complain about it, he came with it.
Having seen this performance, I'm a lot happier with Team Will right now.
Wanna give it another go or? # Rah! Lawrence, he's coming with it.
I see Jason.
He's looking from the side, like, 'Oh, shucks.
He's playing the guitar and singing.
What?!' It's gonna be an awesome battle.
Can we, like, high five and stuff? I think Jason's going out with a sharper edge than we've seen.
I'll be singing the song like I would want to hear it, as opposed to trying to beat someone.
All right, guys.
You guys cut it.
WOMAN BACKSTAGE: OK, stand by, guys.
In this battle, I'm gonna give it everything, every ounce of my heart and soul.
Lawrence has stepped up his game but it's a battle at the end of the day, and I've got to show what I've got in my locker.
Oh, with every fibre of my body I want to win this battle.
It's a dog-eat-dog world and it's gonna be very sad if I'm the reason he goes home.
Let's make this the start.
I'm not going home yet.
I don't want this to be the end.
Let the battle commence.
# Long Train Runnin' # Wah # Down around the corner # A half a mile from here # You see them old trains running # And you watch them disappear # Without love # Hey # Where would you be now? # Without love # Well, I know I saw Miss Lucy # Down along the tracks # She lost her home and her family # And she won't be coming back # Without love # Oh, where would you be now? # Without love # Na, na, na, na, na, na # Well, the Illinois Central # And the Southern Central Freight # Gotta keep on pushing, mama # Cos you know they're running late # Without love # Where would you be now? # Oh, no # Without love # Well, the Illinois Central # And the Southern Central Freight # Gotta keep on pushing, mama # Cos you know I won't be late # Without love, without love, oh # Where would you be right now? Come on! # Without love # Yeah # Where pistons keep on churning # And the wheels go round and round # And the steel rails are cold and hard # For the mountains, they go down # Without love # Where would you be now? # Na, na, na, na # Where would you be? # Without love Where would you be now? Jason and Lawrence, everyone! Jennifer, did they impress you? Yes.
That was dope.
It was so close.
I have to hear Will, y'all was doing so good.
What you gonna do, Will? I'm gonna make a decision.
Will, did they deliver for you this evening? They gave birth, they delivered.
OK, Will.
Yeah.
Will, who is the winner of the battle? All right.
OK.
OK.
So OK.
It's a good one.
Oh, for real? Oh, shucks, um Tough one, honey.
Mm-mm! Stop it! It's not funny anymore.
It's gonna be They're so good.
I know.
It's gonna be It's gonna be It's gonna be Jason.
Thank you very much.
I won't let you down.
Thank you.
Cheers.
Please, one more time for Lawrence.
You're amazing, man.
Good choice.
Good choice.
Thank you very much.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
That was tough.
That was real tough.
I'm glad I wasn't in your shoes.
I wish I could have kept him, but Jason's voice is just too Unique.
You don't get that every day.
What an incredible experience this is gonna be.
I'm so excited and I'm going to give it everything I've got.
It was tough cos I wanted to put Lawrence through.
But, damn, Jason has a soupy, smooth voice.
Soit was hard.
I think I made the right decision.
We've got Linda Jennings and Into The Ark.
I'm feeling nervous, obviously.
Yeah, nervous.
But feeling good.
Just gonna go out and do what we can.
I feel scared to death.
But excited as well.
The blind audition was sort of out of this universe.
# Will never disappear # I've seen that road before Straight away, Will.
i.
am and Gavin turned, so that's when I played the wrong chord.
I was, like, totally freaked out.
For people like that to turn round and take notice of me is quite flattering.
We've done a million gigs, so we try to treat them the same.
Once you go onstage and you see the judges, it's not the same.
# Cos your kisses send me higher Like the sweet sounds of the choir You get three, but it's Class.
Pretty awesome.
I couldn't stop smiling.
Next up is Into The Ark.
And Linda.
Ooh! Being paired up with a duo makes it quite tough.
They're, like, young guys and they're quite cute.
And I'm nota young guy.
And you'll be singing More Than Words by Extreme.
Whoo! It's a cracking song.
I've done it before, so I'm really glad that I know it.
Do you know that one? Ish.
I thought we were done for, really, then.
We're gonna look like Muppets in front of Tom cos we don't know it.
Shall we have a go at it? Yeah.
It seemed to me that Linda knew the song right away.
# Saying I love you She sang the whole thing.
# Is not the words I want to hear from you Linda's just a very enthusiastic person.
She's very adamant on what part she wants already.
Whereas I don't know.
Just floating on by.
I'll just sing it, like.
I don't know if I've got anything meaty enough.
Do you know what I mean? I am competitive.
I like to have a challenge.
You want to get the I don't want to be rude, but the money shot.
You don't feel you're good enough? Linda knows what she needs to do.
That's a good thing for her.
Maybe not as good for them.
You know, if you take it away and work on it Yeah.
.
.
some of the parts of the song.
We look forward to working on the song ourselves.
Cos at the moment she's chiming in quite a lot.
Yeah! Beautiful.
Tom seemed pretty happy with the work we've put in.
We're getting there.
It's better than last time.
Yeah.
You sounded really good.
It's the most important thing in my life now.
Thanks very much, Tom.
I really want to win the battle.
I'm feeling really good about it.
Hopefully we're gonna go through.
I think they're blending really well.
It's gonna be strong.
It's Linda Jennings.
I really want to win this.
Not just a bit, but, 100% I wanna win it.
Into The Ark.
Unfortunately, somebody has to go.
And I don't want it to be us.
It's two against one.
I don't think Linda will have a problem with that.
It's gonna be very interesting.
# More Than Words # Saying I love you # Is not the words I want to hear from you # It's not that I want you # Not to say, but if you only knew # How easy # It would be to show me how you feel # More than words # Is all you have to do to make it real # Then you wouldn't have to say # That you love me # Cos I'd already know # What would you do # If my heart was torn in two # More than words to show you feel # That your love for me is real # What would you say # If I took those words away # Then you couldn't make things new # Just by saying I love you # Na, na-na-na, na-na, na-na-na # More than words # Na, na-na-na, na-na More than words Gavin? First off, I turned for both acts.
You sound like you fit together, but different kinds of looks.
Linda, you look amazing.
Fantastic.
Thank you.
Dane, your high stuff, it's really flawless.
Unluckily for Tom, he has to make a big decision.
It was just a beautiful moment that you guys gave us.
I felt like I was coming to your concert or something.
Good luck! Sheesh! Tom, make the right decision, now.
I thought that it was really beautiful.
The three of you singing together was something special.
OK, Tom, so no more steals.
Er Er I have to go with Into The Ark.
I knew you'd get through, mate.
I knew you'd get through.
Thank you so much, guys.
Thank you so much.
Please put your hands together for Linda.
If you were nervous it didn't show.
Thank you.
And good luck.
Hiya.
Are you all right? Yeah.
Yeah.
Ugh! That was a heartbreaker.
Yeah.
To be going on to live shows is just overwhelming.
Super overwhelming.
Live TV, super scary.
Boom! I think Into The Ark can win this show.
That's the way I feel.
OK, guys, pairings are done, choices are made.
And so, Ruth, you will battle against Sarah.
She's the last person I would want to go against.
Her voice is so strong.
She is way above my level.
And you'll both be singing Young And Beautiful by Lana Del Ray.
I really like this pairing.
I think we've got really different voices.
I think she's a bit more of a mellow performer, where I'm a little bit more, like, aaah! I was singing for about, like, five seconds.
Then Gavin turned round and I got the shock of my life.
# I'm addicted to you # Don't you know that you're toxic? # Toxic Oh, ahh I was the last performer of the day, so, technically, he had to turn round for me.
But he was so great after I'd finished singing.
I can tell you I'm not disappointed.
I think you're incredible.
I paired Sarah and Ruth together because I thought it'd be unusual.
Ruth's a huge powerhouse.
She's really ambitious.
And Sarah, I just heard a songbird.
# Oh, yeah It was a songbird that felt it had travelled.
She's just like the perfect flower and she's just 16, it's ridiculous.
# I wish you luck in life And good When I looked, my auntie was crying.
It was just amazing.
It was really, really good.
You just took me away and you're everything I've been waiting for to add to my team.
It's really nerve-wracking cos it's quite a big crowd.
I've not performed for that many people before.
For me, working with her will be trying to just tell her how great she is, so that she can bloom.
# I know you will # Will you still # Still love me When I'm no longer beautiful Sarah is brand-new and inexperienced because she's so young; she just has to gain confidence in herself and to believe in herself.
Ruth, she just really feels music.
What I love about Ruth's voice is her low register.
It's so beautiful.
It's my favourite thing about her.
# Mid July When you and I were forever wild Can I stop you there? Yeah.
That's a really nice part of your voice.
It's such a low key and I'm not used to that.
But I trust him.
He's the expert.
After today, Ruth's voice is even more powerful.
It's opened up a whole new world for her.
I am here for a reason.
I do want to be the one Gavin picks.
I don't want to show any weaknesses.
Potentially, I think I can win this battle.
With Ruth's opera, it all just blends in so well.
It's gonna be a really tough battle, but if I show Gavin coming out of my shell and show confidence, I have a chance of winning.
It's Ruth Lockwood.
Head to head with Sarah Morgan.
Let the battle commence.
# Young And Beautiful # I've seen the world # Done it all # Had my cake now # Diamonds # Brilliant # And Bel Air now # Hot summer nights # Mid July # When you and I were forever wild # The crazy days # City lights # The way you'd play with me like a child # Will you still love me # When I'm no longer # Young and beautiful? # Will you still love me # When I've got nothing # But my aching soul? # I know you will # I know you will # I know that you will # Will you still love me # When I'm no longer beautiful? # Dear lord, when I get to heaven # Please let me bring my man # When he comes tell me that you'll let him in # Father, tell me if you can # Oh, that grace, oh, that body # Oh, that face # Makes me wanna party # He's my sun # He makes me shine # Like diamonds # Will you still love me # Love me # When I'm no longer young # When I'm no longer beautiful # I know you will # I know you will # I know that you will # Will you still love me # When I'm not young And beautiful? Oh! Go, Ruth! One more time for Ruth and Sarah.
So, Tom, what did you think of the ladies tonight? I thought they sounded really, really beautiful.
Really lovely.
That's one of my favourite songs, first of all.
And I love that you are so young, and you sing "Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful?" It had an innocence to it.
It made it even more beautiful.
For Ruth, I love that you put your stamp on it.
Thank you.
For Gavin as a coach, I think that was smart of him because it allowed you to be able to do that.
I think that was gracious of you to do.
It was a real special one for me.
I was happy to have them both in my team.
You know, for Ruth, I wanted to find something that she could express herself, but what you did with it was so pretty.
You did a great job and you look amazing.
Thank you.
You did a brilliant job.
Thank you so much.
Sarah, I was just blown away by your ability to interpret that song and you did that song so much justice, and it made so much sense.
Thank you.
It was really, really good.
Thank you.
Before Gavin makes his decision, is there anything you girls would like to say? I just want to thank you so much for this opportunity.
I'm just so happy to be here.
It's amazing having you as a coach as well.
It's like life-changing.
It's just so good.
Thank you so much.
Pleasure.
OK, so, remember, as far as battles go, there are no second chances.
It's all or nothing and it's time for you to make your decision.
Gavin, who's the winner of the battle? I gotta say The person I choose to go forward on my team is Sarah.
Thank you so much.
I've no words.
Oh, my God, I'm so overwhelmed.
Thank you so, so much.
Ready to do it again in the live shows? Yeah.
Expect bigger and better.
Whoo-hoo! So, Ruth, unfortunately, that is the end of your time on The Voice.
How have you found it? I'm just so thankful that, like, I've managed to do this.
Thank you so much for taking part.
Please, one more time for Ruth.
Obviously, I'm disappointed, but you can't let these things get you down.
You've got to stay strong, otherwise you won't achieve anything.
You've got to carry on.
Sarah, she's a natural.

You made the right choice.
I'm really, really happy.
I don't look it - I'm emotional - but I'm so, so happy.

I'm still smiling.
Very proud.
Very proud.
Now I'm going to give it my absolute all.
I just can't believe it.

From then on, we are live, live, live.
Thank you so much for watching and goodnight.
