19x05 - The Blind Auditions, Part 5

Post by bunniefuu »

John: This is the last day
of the blinds.

Alright, I'm heading
back to the studio.

Let's get some
more great singers. Let's go.

It's the last night
of the blind auditions,

which have been incredible.

I mean, obviously,
we're gonna all say

our team's are the best.
Do you think your team

is the best? Because I do know

that I have the best team.

Okay, very confident over here.

I'm excited to take
that trophy back, Shelton.

It's mine.

I'm carrying
championship momentum.

[ Laughs ] Here we go.

This is it.
Our coaches are very close

to locking in their teams of 10,

and the remaining artists are
gonna have to really step it up

in order to land

the few coveted spots
that we have left.

Give it up for our
coaches... Mwah!

...John Legend... Whoo!

...Kelly Clarkson,

Gwen Stefani,

and Blake Shelton!

Gwen: That's so stupid.

The final night
of blind auditions

starts right now.

Hello!

Blake: A lot of happy wavers
up there...

Yay! ...waving their faces off.

Today is so good

for Team Legend.

We're up to seven people
on the team now,

and every single one of them
is extremely talented.

I'm going to trust my ear.

When I hear that voice,
I'm going to press my button.

Producer: Our first artist
is entering now.


I'm ready for a four-chair turn.

This is it. This is it.

Hell yes.

Hell right.

What's up, everybody?
Welcome to "The Life of Me."

[ Bicycle bell dings ]

My name's Julia Cooper,

I'm 21 years old,
and I'm from Poland...

Poland, Ohio. [ Chuckles ]

It's a really tiny town.

Woman: Julia Alexandra Cooper,
please come forward.

She is a excellent
singer and dancer.

The first time I ever sang
in front of anyone, I was 5,

and I sang in a nursing home,
and people cried.

And I got in the car
and said to my mom,

like, "I'm going
to make people cry.

Like, I want to do this
for a long time."

I always was looking
for different opportunities

that maybe, you know,
other kids weren't doing.

I write songs.
I want to be an artist.

I wasn't like anyone else,
but I didn't really care.

I was like, "Okay,
whatever, I'll be that kid

that's, like, the weird
and quirky one, I guess."

I just always knew
that what I needed to do

wasn't necessarily in Poland.
It was somewhere else.

Right now, I go to Middle
Tennessee State University.

When I moved to Tennessee,

I went to school part time
because I was working four jobs.

One job, we would call alumni

and put into the system
what they're doing now.

Also, we would take
groups of students

on various outdoor activities.

I taught yoga at a gym.

If I had the time,
I would walk dogs.

[ Dog barks ]

Adulting is no joke.

The pandemic hit.
I lost three of my four jobs,

and I could no longer pay
to stay in Tennessee,

so I moved back home
with my parents

and was luckily able
to get another job

once I was home
to help my parents out

and just still continue
to pay for school.

[ Speaks indistinctly ]
[ Laughs ]

Holy cow. Look at her.

I've been fighting
to be in a spot like this

and start on this new journey
that could be life-changing.

So now to finally be here
is a dream come true,

and I'm really, really excited
to have my chance onstage.

[ Applause ]

Yes! Wow!

Whoo! Blake: Hello, there.

Who are you?

My name is Julia Cooper,

and I'm from Poland, Ohio,
and I'm 21 years old.

Ohio? Gwen: What?

Ohio. That's amazing.

I'm from Ohio, too. Oh, my God.

And I feel like we were meant
to be together on this show.

Nope, nope.
He says that to everyone.

I do not say that
to everyone and...

He actually said that to someone
who sounds a little similar

that's actually on his team.
Oh, wow.

Don't listen to Kelly.
Ooh, burn.

Burn. Julia,

you noticed who turned
for you first.

I love how you would go in
and out of your head voice

and your chest voice.

You showed us
that you had that power,

but you also could do
the really sweet, smooth,

angelic sound at the same time.
Your tone was super cool.

You had a really unique way
of expressing yourself.

As I got to enjoy
your performance,

it was a revelation and truly
sounded like nobody else.

And I think that's one
of the things

that's going to carry you
really far in this show.

I can't wait to work with you.
It'll be so much fun.

Thank you so much.

"I can't wait to work with you."

I'm just speaking it
into existence.

I'm a big fan of your voice.
That's why I turned around

almost the same time
as the others.

Almost, almost.
And the reason why...

[ Laughter ] I was first.

You are very unique.

I don't think
that you sound exactly like

another person
that came out here.

But I will say, I believe
her name is Cami...

Not at all....and...

Oh. That is not true.

That is not true.
And she has a very ethereal,

kind of soulful vibe
like you...
Wow.

...and y'all are different.
Holy moly.

I'm not saying
you're... you're similar,

I'm just saying...
Cami did no runs.

...think about it. Like...

Yes, she did.

Don't hate on your own person.

She did...
Oh, hating on your own team.

They're different.
She said you hated

on your own team.
But my point is,

Gwen and I both don't have

anyone like you.

She tells you
how unique you are.

And on the other hand,
she's telling you

how there's another girl
that sounds just like you...

Their approach
is very similar.
...on my team.

Whoa.
Those two things
cannot be true

at the same time.
It's true
because I said it's true.

[ Laughter ]

The full-on reason
why I turned around...
Wow.

...is I love
how powerful you are

in a, like,
poetic, cool, chill way.

Julia, I don't compare you
to anyone on my team...

Until battles comes
and knockouts.
I don't compare you

to anyone else...
Oh, rip. That was a rip.

They're all scary. I'm not.

She's looking at me like
she wants to talk with me.

It looks like it, right?

You looked right at me, right?

[ Laughs ]
'Cause you're my homey.

You can feel it.

I know how to connect
with people

through my story
and, like, my style

and my personality,

and that's when
my confidence comes.
Yes.

I just saw that in you.

You are totally unique,
totally confident.

That's why I like you.

You totally deserve
to be on the show.

You deserve four chairs.

I screwed that up for you.
I'm sorry.

Okay, Julia,
I'm going to do this.

You ready? Okay. Yes.

'Cause you're just
standing there.

You don't look like
you're ready.

You look like...
You look like...
I'm ready.

You ready? Yes.

Who do you pick as your coach?

[ Audience shouting ]

Who's she gonna pick?

I don't know. They're all
selling it pretty good.

Julia!

Julia from Ohio.

I honestly believe
no one sounds like her.

It's always tough when you're
going against these two ladies.

Kelly's always formidable.

And Gwen... filling up her team
with some great artists, too.

Why'd you go with
your fellow Ohio native, John?

The vulnerability
that he brings to his music

is something that, as an artist,
I've always wanted to bring.

Congratulations. Thank you.

John: Ahh!
Kelly: Like, from the song alone
and her style,

I was like, there's no way
she's not going to pick John.
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

It's hard to beat John.
There's just no way around it.

Man, I tried to stir the pot
a little bit.

Mm-hmm.
Tried to sabotage me.
Because I'm sick and tired

of seeing John
win artist after artist

every time he hits his button.

He's like a vocal ninja
or something.

I know it.

Like a "Voice" coach ninja.

♪ This is "The Voice" ♪

Daly: Welcome back
to the blind auditions.

I'm always doing something
with music throughout the day,

whether it's listening,
whether it's tapping my hand,

stomping my foot,
it's all music every day.

Music is life to me.

I'm Apropos, I'm 31 years old,

and I'm from Detroit, Michigan.

When I was thinking
of a solo name,

the word "Apropos"
just stuck out to me

because I can pertain
to hip-hop, pop, soul, country.

I feel like "The Voice"
is apropos for me now

because I've worked hard
to get to this place.

It's my time.

When I was almost 2 years old,
my father, he passed away,

so my mother sacrificed for me.

She worked really hard
so we didn't have to struggle.

When I was 7 years old,

I literally just remember
my mom saying,

"Hey, we're gonna start
piano lessons."

My mom has been singing
in church all her life.

I've always gotten motivation
and inspiration from her.

So I stuck with choir
until the end of high school.

But outside of that,
I was always

singing and playing music.

♪♪

I started gigging.
I got to record an album,

and then after sending
my music out,

I got a call from a label
in London.

[ English accent ] "Hello.
Is this... Is this Apropos?"

And I'm like... I'm like, "Yo,

who's trying to prank me
right now?"

I get a call
from the label owner,

and he tells me, "Elton John

is going to introduce
your record 'Talk Like That'

on his syndicated radio show."

To hear Elton John say,
"That was Apropos

with 'Talk Like That, '

absolutely love it"...
Mind blown.

My mother means
the absolute world to me.

I'd be nowhere without her.

Hi, Apropos.

[ Voice breaking ]
Oh, my God. Hey, Mom.

It's your time.

You've worked so hard
for this.
[ Sniffles ]

I am so proud of you.

Being so far away from her,

it's breaking me down.

But I have to be strong
for this performance

because it's so important.

You ready to turn
those chairs around?

I'm ready. Yeah. [ Sniffles ]

Do it. Do it.
I'm so excited.
[ Chuckles, sniffles ]

[ Smooches ] Love you.
I love you, too.

I got a lot of soul
in these vocal cords.

I got a lot of power,
a lot of energy,

and I want to hit
the coaches with it.

I was so close. I was so close.

Hello. What's your name,
and where are you from?

My name is Apropos.
I'm 31 years old.

I'm from Detroit, Michigan.

That is an amazing name.

It is. Thank you.

You're a very good singer.
Thank you.

And you have a very good tone.
It's very cool and unique.

But the melodic choices you made
were in a very narrow band.

Right.
So I wasn't clear
what kind of range

you had
based on that performance.

That was my only concern.

I'm so thankful for
the constructive criticism,

and I'm happy to be here,
and thank you for saying that

I'm an awesome singer.
You really are.

And Detroit, we know,
has been such a haven

for great soul singers.

And of course,
the great Marvin Gaye

recorded that song in Detroit.

One quick correction... that was
the California Raisins.

Oh, the California Raisins
did that song.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You're correct. [ Laughter ]

I remember those commercials.

Gwen: I know.
Kelly: Yeah, me too.

I used to love
those commercials.

I think
Marvin Gaye did cover it.

Honestly, I probably heard it

on the California Raisins
commercial

before I heard
the Marvin Gaye version.

The first couple of notes,
I was like, "Whoa."

I mean, it was like
shockingly delicious.

It was incredible.

I was so close to turning around
because of your tone.

Whoo!
Like, it doesn't matter
who's on my team...

I cannot give them
that natural-born rasp

and that lived-in
kind of leather-jacket feel.

But you can't be linear
the entire song.

You have to show that range
on a show like this,

but you have
a really cool voice.

Thank you so much, Kelly.
I appreciate that.
Yeah.

I feel like
we're letting one go here.

So you're welcome,
on the way down, to...

To punch my cardboard cut-out
in the face.

It's all good, man.
But promise us
you'll come back and see us.

I still got a smile on my face.

It's wonderful to see
all of your smiles.

Thank you so much.
You have to come back.

I love you already, bro.
I would love to.
I would love to.

Your personality
has to come back.

You're awesome.
Thank you so much, man.

Thank you, Apropos.
I appreciate it.

Thank you. See you, buddy.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Whoo!

Apropos really impressed us.

He had great tone, but it was
how he, like, received...

I love you guys!
...not making it...

That was almost what won
all of us over in the end.

He's cool.

You know, I'm still a little
disappointed in myself

for not turning around
for Apropos

because he's got
a really cool voice.

I only have two spots left,
so I'm looking for something

that really connects with me,
maybe a singer/songwriter,

somebody that I can believe
and believe in.

♪♪

Big man.
Ain't the biggest man, though.

I stand at 6'7".

There's a spot
on the top of your head

that, if you hit it,
it's the worst pain.

So I try to avoid doorways
as best I can,

whether it's like a sideways
duck or a full-out bow.

My name is John Sullivan.

I'm from Denver, North Carolina,
and I'm 32 years old.

Music means pretty much
everything to me.

I played piano growing up,
so it's always been there,

even in the background.

It was just waiting for me
to get over baseball

so I can really tap in full.

Baseball was my first love.

When I first started playing,
I was 6 or 7.

I played every year,
every season.

I was an outfielder,
a first baseman,

but, ultimately,
I was a pitcher.

Made a college roster
in grad school.

After grad school, went out
and played a couple of years

of independent
professional baseball.

Independent pro ball,
that's where you go

and you share a room
with four guys in a motel

and you get paid


It was [chuckles] pretty brutal.

My second year, I came out
with my guitar with the notion

that I could make
some money on the side,

and I did land a regular gig
at a local spot.

And I was like, "You know what?
This is a lot of fun

to play music
and entertain people."


for not being drafted,

and music helped me
softly come down from baseball.

A year ago, my wife gave birth
to our son Boone.

I would consider myself
a Mr. Mom, for sure.

I spend my days
going on long walks with Boone.

Hello. We go fishing.

We spend a lot of our time
reading books

and playing with his toys

and running around the living
room with Goose,

our golden retriever.

Can you say hi? Hello.

Hi. There you go.

I know he misses his dad,

but one day he's going to think,
"This is so cool!"

There are just no words.

I think it could
absolutely change our life.

It could change his career.

I would not be here without you.

You know, I appreciate
your support always.

We miss you. Say "Good luck."

Bye-bye!
I love you.
Can you say bye?

When I hit the stage, I'm gonna
think of my wife and my kid,

and I'm just going to give it
everything I have.

Coming from baseball.
I know the importance

of having a coach there
to kind of show you the way.

Music is no different,
and these coaches

could really show me
the right steps to take

to land me where I need to be
professionally.

- Alright.
- Whoo!

What's your name?

My name is John Sullivan.

I'm from Denver, North Carolina.

John, what impressed us all
the most about you

was your tone.

Some singers come here

and they're big
and they're piercing.

But with you,
it was the intimacy

that you made us feel
with your voice.

Thank you.
So, very good job,
and congratulations.

Thank you very much, John.
I appreciate it.
Mm-hmm.

Blake: I love the song choice.

Gwen and I,
we listen to tons of music

out of the '70s.
Do you do a lot of that?

Yeah, I love to cover everything
from Jim to the Grateful Dead.

I mean, Bob Dylan,
all the singer/songwriters.

I'm going to have a hard fight
on my hands, I think,

with Gwen, because that's

her favorite music in the world.

No way. I'm a '70s girl.

I love yacht rock, huh?

That's so awesome.

He's more like
a yacht rock motor boat country.

You're like...
You're like pontoon.

- Pontoon.
- Pontoon!

Hey, no problem with that.

I just love how it cuts through,

and you had perfect pitch.

I think you're a storyteller,

and I'd be proud
to be your coach.

Thanks so much.

I was just sitting back
listening to you sing

and I was like,
"This voice is honest.

It's giving me peace."

I like you, and I would love
to work with you.

I like you, too.
And I feel like
we have similar tastes,

believe it or not.
Obviously. I mean, look how
the two of you are dressed.

I mean, two peas in a pod.

[ Laughter ]

Well, obviously people
dressed like you

are into people that dress
like this, so maybe he is.

It's like he's been
in my closet already.

I know, you're so tall.
He's got a very tall team
right now, too.

He does have a tall team.
How tall are you?

I'm 6'7". John: Oh, wow.

Whoa! He's taller than Blake.

John: Yeah. These two don't like

to change classics,

and I love to take it
somewhere interesting

in a vocal competition setting.

I was waiting for that one spot
where it deviated

and maybe shined a little light
on who you were,

not just the classic song.

And that's the only reason
why I didn't turn around.

These two coaches
are perfect for you.

So whoever you choose,
welcome to the show.

Thank you so much, Kelly.
I appreciate that.
Yes.

Anybody want to say
anything else before he decides?

I love you. [ Laughter ]

I love you.

And I love all of you.
Thank you so much.

We love you, John.
Who do you pick as your coach?

Uh...

Gwen, I love the '90s.

No Doubt is my thing.

There's natural similarity.
Yeah, he seems...

This is uncanny.

And my wife loves Blake,
so that's always good.
...could be your stand-in.

when I was a kid,

it was fun making up songs.

But I know that I have
something to offer.

I've been doing this
for so long.

I've bounced between
so many different genres.

There's more to this than
just your singing, you know.

There's a lot to be said
about stage presence,

about style, and being able
to connect with the audience.

I feel like I have
so much experience,

everyone knows they're probably
gonna pick Blake,

but I will always turn for an
artist who I think sounds great.

My competitive side has grown
since the season before.

I'm kicking Trace off my tour.

[ Laughs ]

♪ This is "The Voice" ♪

Daly: Welcome back
to the final night

of the blind auditions.

Well, we're not going
against Blake anymore.

Glad that we got you
out of the way.

[ Laughs ]
I only have
one chance to turn.

I want, like,
a singer/songwriter.
Yeah.

All right. Two to go. [ Laughs ]

Daly: Emmalee, what's going on
in your mind?

Emmalee: I'm excited.

I've been practicing
for this moment. I'm ready.

Your moment is right now.
Good luck.

Yeah, thank you. Okay.

Looky.

Emmalee: One year for Christmas,
my dad got me a golf club.

Instead of ever using
that golf club as a golf club,

I used it as a microphone.

A-B-C-D... F

I knew what I wanted to do
from Day One.

I am Emmalee...

Emmalee, not Emily.

I'm 20 years old, and I am
from Clarksville, Tennessee.

[Humming tune]
I was such a ham as a kid.

"Sit down, sit down."
You know, "I'm gonna do a play."

I'm an only child.
Like, that's not much of a play.

[ Laughs ] It was like me and me

talking back and forth
to each other.

[ Laughs ]

From a really young age,

music was a way for me
to express myself.

Started getting more serious
about it when I was 13,

getting in the studio,
recording and releasing stuff.

About that time, I started
working with other writers

and releasing pop music
for film and TV.

Got my first cut
in "Young and the Restless."

It was around Christmas.

I was watching with my family,

waiting for my song to come on.

I'm like, "[ Gasps ]
There it is! There it is!

That's my song!"

I've been driving back and forth
from Clarksville to Nashville

for the past few years,
gigging all over the place.

This opportunity to be
on the "Voice" stage

is not something that falls
into your lap every day.

So I'm just thankful and excited
for this experience.

Aww.

Wish we could be there with you.

Yeah, I miss you.
Oh, my gosh. I'm gonna cry.

I love my family so much.

They have pushed me even when
I didn't believe in myself

to go for it.

They knew that I was equipped
to do it

even when I didn't think I was.

Thank you for all that
you've done for me,

everything you've sacrificed
for me to be here.

I'm so thankful for y'all.

You got this, alright?

Thanks. Love you.

Love you. Love you.

I chose to do
a stripped-down version

of "How Will I Know"
by Whitney Houston

because I wanted to showcase
the emotion behind the lyrics.

When I listen to the song,
I think about a girl

telling her friends
about this guy that she's met,

and she's like, "Oh, my gosh.
How will I know?"

The teams are filling up,

and I really hope
that I step out on that stage

and wow the coaches,
and I hope that I can be

half the singer that she was.

Here we go. She did that slow.

Yeah. Alright.

everybody else,

But I'm waiting for the perfect
combination of someone

that wins me over quickly,
gives me chills,

makes me excited
to work with them.

So far, we've got soul,
we've got pop,

we've got singer/songwriter.

We've even got country.

But I'm not just going
to try to fill my team up.

I want to make sure
I find someone special.

♪♪

I'm James Pyle.
I'm 30 years old.

I grew up
in West Hills, California,

and I'm currently
living in Columbus, Ohio.

Growing up, I was known
as the chapel band drummer.

I mean, I've heard so many times
in my life, like,

"Oh, James,
like, stick to drums"...

Like, "Don't sing."

That literally still crushes me.

But it's my own fault because
I never really showed them

that I really could sing.

My mom... she sang in a choir,

so she would kind of hear me
sing around the house.

And she was always interested...
Like, "Do you sing?"

But, you know, I kind of kept it
to myself for the most part

until I was like 20...
You know, like, I don't...

Nobody really knew
that I could sing,

which is kind of nuts
being here now.

Yeah. [ Chuckles ]

Did you just give Mommy
the shoulder shrug like that?

I did.

James: My wife's name is Jamie.

We kind of dated on and off
in high school.

[ Sings indistinctly ]

We got married in 2013.

My family means everything.

They've kind of pushed
my work ethic,

and they've just kind of, like,
made me work more on my music.

Ah. [ Laughs ]

James: My kids are definitely
my biggest fans.

I always have their love
and support,

and it...
And it means everything.

♪♪

I have only done
like, maybe, three gigs.

My very first gig,

I performed
at Universal CityWalk,

and it was
for a Battle of the Bands



And then I've done, like,

two open mics in Columbus, Ohio,
for, like, 15 people.

I've been scared to do
this show forever.

And I think that
I'm finally ready.

I finally think of myself
as a singer

'cause I used to always say,

"I'm a drummer,
but, like, I sing."

And now I'm ready to just
go out and be a singer.
Thank you.

Oh, my gosh.
That's Daddy, you guys.

Alright, come on. It's time.

Here he goes Oh, gosh. Daddy.

[ Applause ]

I'm sorry, y'all.

Blake: Oh, wow!
Oh, my gosh.
You are so good.

What is your name?
Where are you from?

My name's James Pyle, I'm 30,

And I'm from
West Hills, California.

Oh, my gosh.
Like, in the first part of it,

just wanted to hit
my button so hard.

My team is full.
We're still cool, Kelly.

Like, it's fine.
We're cool.
Okay, okay.

I had choice.
Don't worry about it.

Okay. I loved
the song selection.

I loved what you did with it.

I loved your falsetto.

I loved everything
about it.
Thank you.

I think that you
are super fantastic.

I'm so glad you're on the show,
man. Congratulations.

Thank you so much.
Gwen: Hi, James.

Hello, Gwen Stefani. Ooh. Wow.

It was just an excitement thing.

It was just kind of like...
That's...

You're not a real person.

Your voice is unreal.
I'll tell you that.

That is for sure. Thank you.

They're all jealous of me
'cause I'm the only one

with a slot left
on my team.
Yeah. We...

James: Whoo! Oh, my gosh.
I couldn't turn.

I was like, nothing...
Nothing works.

But you're definitely

one of the best singers
that we've heard.

[ Chuckling ] What?
If I could have
pushed my button,

I would have pushed for you,
and I know that

you would have picked me...
I'm pretty sure.

I feel the chemistry
happening as we speak.

I would have put up a fight,
James.

I would have put up
a fight.
John, I can't, like...

Yeah, I don't know.

I'm just gonna, like,
plead the Fifth on this one.

If you're available to steal,

I will be stealing you.

Well, James, I had one slot
left on my team.

I'm the only person here
that could have turned for you.

But I promise you...
[ Laughing ] Oh, my God.

Isn't that crazy?

This is your life
right now, okay?

I would have been so more
nervous than I already was.

[ Laughs ]
You probably would have had
a four-chair turn.

Honestly.
You would have for sure
had a four-chair turn.

Honestly, it was a masterful
performance.

So thank you, "Voice" gods.

[ Laughs ]

I appreciate him
thanking the "Voice" gods.

[ Laughter ]

Because this is my show.

And I was just thinking,
well, you know, it's...

John's still hanging out here,

trying to finish out his team.

So I put in a call and said,
"Hey, send out James.

Let's... Let's let him finish
on a high note and..."
