This girl sang _lead_ for Michael Jackson's most powerful song at his memorial in front of the world and absolutely _killed_ it. _The Voice_ is child's play for her.
I always come back to her every time I see yet another woman of color get written off to yet another white country singer. The little boy who won last night isn’t a country singer but still... this show is so lopsided cuz of the viewers. They need to make a show where professionals do ALL the judging.
Sim tô vendo aqui na Netflix o Documentário sobre Michael Jackson..aí passou uma parte aqui essa menina cantando com ele ..aí falei.. conheço essa menina de algum lugar ...aí vim aqui pesquisar ...aí acabei achando ...esse menina canta muitoooo...
Judith is probably one of the best singers I've ever heard. They put singers like her on for shock value so they can rob them blind. They should call it "popularity, youth and a little bit of voice"
I’ve never written to any performer in my life, not even the legends but I wrote to Judith Hill. I thought she would make it big time because of the magnitude of her talent. She wrote me back! It was awesome.
Don't be mad. She already had a full on singing career before she went on this show. I'm surprised they even let her go on it. She was going on tour with Michael Jackson when he died for goodness sakes. Look her up on RUclips singing with him. Don't feel sorry for her. She was actually on Prince's plane with him 6 days before he passed. I think she's gonna be ok.
Brought chills, she is amazing singer, she may of lost but being able to sing with the great Michael Jackson and Prince is far better than being a winner on the voice, they wish they had her opportunity.
I saw Judith Hill live in concert in October 2013 in Phoenix when she toured with Josh Groban for the In the Round tour! She’s amazing LIVE, she sang The Prayer with Josh and nailed it!
Seven years later, and I want to see her live. I'm glad we will soon be able to do that. But she's overseas a lot in the near future. What a great artist.
I still consider this blind audition the very best one ever. She turns the room on here. I never tire of hearing this song over and again. When she sings Michael Jackson songs she gets my attention too. She has an essence that is contagious. Love to you Judith Hill, always.
Yeah, she has that alarm clock kinda voice. Put Christina Aguilera's original version to shame and gave Adam a spiritual wake-up call...and Usher was happy that she's talented AND beautiful. He started giving glory to God as soon as he saw her (her first name means "praise"). Her middle name ain't "glory" for nothin. lol
It sucks that she and sarah simmons (i think that's her name) were taken out the same week and judith threw some shade that made me feel like she knew she going to win but then again people dont vote cause of the voice itself (many times not even just in the voice) so her saying "the voice isnt really about the voice it's about many other thing's" i completely agree with...she got robbed
+Christina Baldivino no I know. Lol. I saw her story. I just find it awful that she didn't even break top 5. She's one of the most talented singers I have ever seen
+Lauryn Brianna Yes she's pretty amazing. I learned about her tonight from an article because she was one of the 2 people on the plane with Prince that made an emergency landing 6 days before he died. She's the one who saw him go unconscious and freaked out. She was opening for him and he had just produced her album at Paisley Park. Sad that Michael Jackson died right before she was supposed to debut with him and Prince died during her tour with him. She found out about Prince from texts from friends when she woke up. Sad. :(. He was helping her get her album out there. He told people to ask her questions now because soon she will be a big star and no one will be able to talk to her.
This could be my favorite audition ever and i watch far too many of these things. Man does she really own it with that first line. Much like Sawyer Fredericks she chose a song that shows off her voice immediately. Soooooo good. Love this girl, magical voice.
Judith was not some Amateur! She sang with and for Michael Jackson! God rest his soul.. :(! But I hate how she lost to some country singer who didn't even come close to Judith.
It's quite possible that she, being a very talented artist but struggling to create a successful solo career, just wanted the exposure but didn't really even want to win ultimately. She wouldn't have wanted to have to have them controlling her career. And she's a soul singer, not a pop singer. They may have made a deal with her along those lines. They get a very good artist to get ratings up, and she gets the exposure she wants, then she 'loses' and gets to go back to her own path. Everyone is happy. I mean you can tell how scripted it is. You really think the judges didn't know she was on the show and that it was her they were hearing when she started? They all would have known about her, being in the business as they are. She was on the widely viewed (and excellent) documentary "20 Feet from Stardom", which I'm guessing all or most of them would have seen. She sang at MJ's funeral and it was widely seen and she was on various shows afterwards talking about it.
It's almost 2020, and I'm still shocked she didn't win. I used to watch this show every week, but stopped watching after she left. Don't recall how many times I've watched her rendition of this song. I wish she could have performed this entire song. Luv it!
I was in this woman’s house working on an album with her parents Pee Wee & Michiko and I’ve heard unreleased music and till this day, no other music has made me feel like I did when I heard that music ❤️🚀
Tiya Caemara Wonder how Christina Aguilera would of felt!! Song the song better than HER!! Like both but Judith Hill version sound better with a twist!! ❤️🙌🏽❤️
Stevie Wonder, Prince, Michael Jackson, George Benson, Carole King, John Legend all seem to like her voice, but what the hell do they know? The best thing about shows like the Voice, X Factor, etc is that some talented artists are actually given the chance to perform to a broader audience, but the winners are by and large inconsequential insofar as they typically aren't the most talented, but rather the most popular. Witness the number of runners up on these various shows that go on to greater success and longer careers than the "winners" do. Yeah, I think Judith will be making music long after the spotlight has faded on whoever won that year and well beyond when the Voice is cancelled.
Amazing! Probably one of the top ten covers I have ever heard, her range is magnificent (and I am a VERY harsh critic if not absolutely flawless) and that she was.
+Judy Fraley they actually made her lose bkoz she was so good that she got a record deal signed before show was even over so the producers decided to make someone else win..shes still making music
greeneyesakasnowman Well that and the fact that the growing pattern like in American Idol where the winners have been country singers, mostly male white and guitarists.
This was CRAZY and her not winning was also - you can see it in Adam's face that he was witnessing the winner auditioning. This audition is one of my all time top Voice performances - I have to revisit periodically and experience it all over again
She won and everyone knows it. I have watched this so many times I’ve lost count. She has not only the God given talent but the opportunity to show it to world before he passed. He saw into her as well.
I stop watching the voice after she was eliminated. Im tired of country singers, same thing all the time. This girl has a different voice and unique. This girl was and will be the best this show ever had. Can't believe she didn't win.
The way Adam jolted from his slumber tells you the caliber of Judith Hill's voice (couldn't help watching her opening over and over again). Its been, I think 6 yrs. since I last watched the show...couldn't watch the "The Voice" since she lost because the show's executives admitted there was a supposed glitch in the voting system that year and was tampered with
This girl sang _lead_ for Michael Jackson's most powerful song at his memorial in front of the world and absolutely _killed_ it. _The Voice_ is child's play for her.
She's the best contestant who's ever sung on this show. Incredibly original and dynamic and strong.
Can’t forget Chris Blue.
She’s my all time favorite contestant on the The Voice!
Six years later and I'm still BAFFLED how she lost.
Same. She sang with Michael Jackson for God's sake!!!!
Sameee
I always come back to her every time I see yet another woman of color get written off to yet another white country singer. The little boy who won last night isn’t a country singer but still... this show is so lopsided cuz of the viewers. They need to make a show where professionals do ALL the judging.
Her sob story wasn't sad enough lol
Its not the first time. You'll see an amazing singer on a talent show and someone else with half the talent wins.
She put soul into a song that didnt have it to begin with.
lol right it was all bland and then Judith said it needs some spice haha
She sang with Michael Jackson yet lost to a 15-year-old who auditioned with a Taylor Swift song. I lost all respect for the show after her season.
True
Sim tô vendo aqui na Netflix o Documentário sobre Michael Jackson..aí passou uma parte aqui essa menina cantando com ele ..aí falei.. conheço essa menina de algum lugar ...aí vim aqui pesquisar ...aí acabei achando ...esse menina canta muitoooo...
I know that was a damn shame.
Don't you know that the entertainment industry rewards mediocrity?
Exactly I stopped watching after that. Her voice tops all the judges combined and they chose mediocre
Judith is probably one of the best singers I've ever heard. They put singers like her on for shock value so they can rob them blind. They should call it "popularity, youth and a little bit of voice"
I’ve never written to any performer in my life, not even the legends but I wrote to Judith Hill. I thought she would make it big time because of the magnitude of her talent. She wrote me back! It was awesome.
She's literally a better singer than all of the judges. How can they judge her?
you don't have to be better than someone to judge them.
Detective Hawk u right about that. Usher can hang with her only
Vocally usher can keep up with her and maybe Adam
A better question: how can America judge her???
Iuuj
The greatest talent to stand on The Voice stage.
Many years later I still watch this. Best audition ever on the show. She was robbed for sure
this performance is so good it almost sounds prerecorded. the best blind audition by FAR.
All of them judges giving their best poker faces but Usher's expressions are honest from the beginning.
I mean if anything it tells you how much the want her lol???
Judith Hill is my favorite female vocalist ever. Period.
its been a couple of years, and im still mad she didnt win.
Don't be mad. She already had a full on singing career before she went on this show. I'm surprised they even let her go on it. She was going on tour with Michael Jackson when he died for goodness sakes. Look her up on RUclips singing with him. Don't feel sorry for her. She was actually on Prince's plane with him 6 days before he passed. I think she's gonna be ok.
+Christina Baldivino then why doesn't she have a recording contract and why isn't she famous and on the radio and a household name?
Reuben Bagarino SWEAR I was JUST THINKING the same thing I'm still pissed :(((
I stopped watching after this elimination. I was that mad. lol... I love the show it just brings back anger watching it... lol
im in the same boat as you lol
Brought chills, she is amazing singer, she may of lost but being able to sing with the great Michael Jackson and Prince is far better than being a winner on the voice, they wish they had her opportunity.
She didn't just SING with Prince....she was his lover
I saw Judith Hill live in concert in October 2013 in Phoenix when she toured with Josh Groban for the In the Round tour! She’s amazing LIVE, she sang The Prayer with Josh and nailed it!
Forever one of the greatest performances of all time
Seven years later, and I want to see her live. I'm glad we will soon be able to do that. But she's overseas a lot in the near future. What a great artist.
I still consider this blind audition the very best one ever. She turns the room on here. I never tire of hearing this song over and again. When she sings Michael Jackson songs she gets my attention too. She has an essence that is contagious. Love to you Judith Hill, always.
I already watched this video million times and I'm still crying. Giving me goosebumps.
Adam: zzzz
Judith: I wanna thank you
Adam: WHA WHA IM AWAKE
true
right
No One Is HERE!
Yeah, she has that alarm clock kinda voice. Put Christina Aguilera's original version to shame and gave Adam a spiritual wake-up call...and Usher was happy that she's talented AND beautiful. He started giving glory to God as soon as he saw her (her first name means "praise"). Her middle name ain't "glory" for nothin. lol

She was way better than that Danielle Bradbury bitch! Like really! Her vocals were beautiful
I watched the show RELIGIOUSLY until she was kicked off. I have not watched an episode since.
She had a singing career before this show. She was going on tour with Michael Jackson. Shes got it made don't worry
+Christina Baldivino no I know. Lol. I saw her story. I just find it awful that she didn't even break top 5. She's one of the most talented singers I have ever seen

She will be our purple princesses, i believe
The new season with Alicia & Miley is great
This could be my favorite audition ever and i watch far too many of these things. Man does she really own it with that first line. Much like Sawyer Fredericks she chose a song that shows off her voice immediately. Soooooo good. Love this girl, magical voice.
Her voice is just buttery and smooth. She is AMAZING.
Y'all should see her her singing with Michael Jackson (I cant stop loving you), in the movie This Is It. Theyre amazing.
Haven't heard this in years!!! Still my favorite audition ❤
Just saw her in concert today, it was amazing.
Judith was not some Amateur! She sang with and for Michael Jackson! God rest his soul.. :(! But I hate how she lost to some country singer who didn't even come close to Judith.
Chanel Valentine THANK YOU!!!!! I never thought Danielle Bradbury should’ve won! Judith whooped her ass. At least Prince had recognized her talent.
Chanel Valentine she sung with prince also
omg!
RIGHT?!!!! Both her AND Michelle Chamuel lost to that girl! It made me so mad!!!!!
It's quite possible that she, being a very talented artist but struggling to create a successful solo career, just wanted the exposure but didn't really even want to win ultimately. She wouldn't have wanted to have to have them controlling her career. And she's a soul singer, not a pop singer.

This is beyond singing, this is art
I am watching this on 2016 and still having goosebumps..........
Same
me too.
2017!
2020 bitches
One of the best "auditions" on any such show I've ever seen. Judith Hill is a MONSTER. When she didn't win, I swore off of this show for LIFE.
Always has been my favorite “The Voice “ contestant!! 💘2018
I still really think she should have won. I mean, she was dueting with Michael Jackson before this...
Really
@@mohsinabbas2555 yes
Am from Pakistan current live in Dubai am always watching this programm I like it so much and where are u from
honestly she was probs held to a higher standard because of that
@@mohsinabbas2555 she was one of the back up singers for This Is It she also sang with Prince before he died
One of the worst losses of this show
+David Bern It's all staged brudda
She was UNFAIRLY better than the others
+Dj B. Drumming, Better than Sasha Allen and Michelle Chamuel?
MrHealthyGuy Absolutely
She was not better then Sarah simmon but close fuck
You can hear some of the king of pop himself in her voice... Legendary
Today I had the opportunity of seeing her singing live and wow this woman has such an amazing talent!
Best contestant ever on voice history she deserved to be famous before this !!!
Victoria Charles She was actually.
Her voice is like no other and the amount of control with it that she has😭🥲🥰🤩🤩
In my opinion, this is the biggest snub in Voice history. Like HOWWW did she not win????
0:09 Judith's voice was so powerful that she woke Adam up.
not power, confidence.
It's almost 2020, and I'm still shocked she didn't win. I used to watch this show every week, but stopped watching after she left. Don't recall how many times I've watched her rendition of this song. I wish she could have performed this entire song. Luv it!
I was in this woman’s house working on an album with her parents Pee Wee & Michiko and I’ve heard unreleased music and till this day, no other music has made me feel like I did when I heard that music ❤️🚀
Usher's and Adam's heads shoot up saying ..... I know a good singer! Snap!!!! So cute!
I have literally listened to this about six times. This lady's voice is out of this world!
she should've picked Usher. 💯
I like this better than the original!
Tiya Caemara Judith Hill made it her OWN SONG!!!!
Tiya Caemara Wonder how Christina Aguilera would of felt!! Song the song better than HER!! Like both but Judith Hill version sound better with a twist!! ❤️🙌🏽❤️
Yeah no
The Voice is so beneath her.
I think we all know that, but it was HER choice to audition.
Judith Hill should have won HANDS DOWN!
Usher couldn't resist all the soul in her voice lol
if only haters could just disappear oh what a wonderful world we'd live in........
www.incmedia.org
That was pro, at least 2 levels above anyone else there. Including the judges? Yup in her own style.
Beautiful voice, AMAZING...
Judith Hill is AMAZING!
She's so talented! I love seeing truly gifted artists like her. :)
She is amazing ! She was a back up vocalist for Michael and also performed at his memorial !
she took my breath away lol
WOW - i can watch this again and again. sensational
I think it’s hysterical that it took Shakira and Blake THAT LONG to hit the button 🤦🏻♂️
Usher loved her especially because she does falsetto just like him! lol! Love this girl
Right. I think that she did that part just for him. 😉
I will never get over her not winning. I thought after watching this audition she had it in the bag.
She sang "Heal the World" at Michael Jackson funeral
she was in this is it
@@edwin99901 , she was Prince's lover at the time of his death
@@christinadobbs6877 ta...ta..ta..ta..no! no! no! She was NOT Prince's lover..she was his "protege" ...Prince did not have lovers he had "protege's"😉🤭
She song the hell out of that song! There is only one Judith Hill!
Just shows you what a carve-up this show is. Judith kills every song she sings. MJ and Prince cant be wrong....😊
Judith Hill - the best that has EVER been on the ‘VOICE’ show.
and this is why she was going to sing with Michael Jackson in 2009 right here. Because this girl can totally ROCK IT!
No entiendo inglés, pero me llegó a las fibras de mi alma, que poderosa e imponente es, me transportó a otra dimensión

Still salty she didnt win
Why the heck did she need to be on this show? It's beneath her.
Should've picked Usher...
My feeling and wish exactly.
I mean I’m sure she knew him already from MJ’s funeral.
@@99annanic He didn't recognize her tho..
@@christinagrimmielove1564 facts
Shepherd's Chapel Network !!!!!!! Pastor Murray is an Anointed Servant of GOD who teaches the Word of GOD with Authority!!!!!!
I heard and saw her perform The Prayer with Josh Groban when he did his In the Round tour in 2013. She was amazing! I love her.
She lost to all of blake's crappy country singers. Thank u Amerikka.
Isumad
+Maya same...i don't country except for carrie underwood
Acturally Blake had none country singers that season. He had a rock guy and a rock girl.
+Maya lmfao true.
+Malthe Nielsen i think you're confusing seasons man, this season (season 4) all his team in the lives was country
omg! Michael Jackson's backup singer!!!!!!!!! she's soooo talented!
Amazing! Probably one of the top ten covers I have ever heard, her range is magnificent (and I am a VERY harsh critic if not absolutely flawless) and that she was.
I dearly love this song and her of course!
Remember when she, Sasha Allen, and Michelle Chamuel lost to Danielle Bradberry... Yeah that wasnt a nightmare it actually happened.
how in the hell did she lose????
+Judy Fraley The racist Southern part of America. They like country music. THey always ruin these singing competitions.
+blognewb u r so right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+Judy Fraley they actually made her lose bkoz she was so good that she got a record deal signed before show was even over so the producers decided to make someone else win..shes still making music
+Judy Fraley shes signed with sony music entertainment
greeneyesakasnowman Well that and the fact that the growing pattern like in American Idol where the winners have been country singers, mostly male white and guitarists.
She is soooo AMAZINGgggg. I would LOVE to go to her concert.
This was CRAZY and her not winning was also - you can see it in Adam's face that he was witnessing the winner auditioning. This audition is one of my all time top Voice performances - I have to revisit periodically and experience it all over again
I also LOVE Usher being moved by her performance - such purity!
The most successful person from the voice
Olha a postura dela no palco, a confiança, a cabeça lá no alto, ela é maravilhosa!
Até hoje acompanho ela em todas redes sociais
Sitting here on my lunch break in 2020 still wondering why she didn't win...
She won and everyone knows it. I have watched this so many times I’ve lost count. She has not only the God given talent but the opportunity to show it to world before he passed. He saw into her as well.
She did a fantastic job👏
I love her voice >>.
She has a natural soul sound. A little bit of raspiness in her voice. We need that after Aretha's passing.
Beautiful with a wonderful voice
Go see her live
Very very good
Impressive guitar player
Impecable vocals
(Eyewitness to this as she was an opening artist for a national act)
I stop watching the voice after she was eliminated. Im tired of country singers, same thing all the time. This girl has a different voice and unique. This girl was and will be the best this show ever had. Can't believe she didn't win.
Whataaaa voice! Judith Hill 🙌
She sang with prince. So different then idol. These singers are professionals.
Thank you this show for introducing me to this astounding artist. The words escape me really
Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!... is absolutely great!
Already when she sang at Michael Jackson exceptionally good!
Wow, wow and just wow!!! How on earth didn't she win the show??!
Why did she even bother to participate in this? She backed up Stevie W and MJ.
Imagine The Voice with:
Jennie Lena
sisaundra lewis
tessanne chin
Judith Hill
christina grimmie
Alisan porter
Wonderful voice and amazing
Judith hill was my favorite ever contestant.
The way Adam jolted from his slumber tells you the caliber of Judith Hill's voice (couldn't help watching her opening over and over again). Its been, I think 6 yrs. since I last watched the show...couldn't watch the "The Voice" since she lost because the show's executives admitted there was a supposed glitch in the voting system that year and was tampered with
