It's often the producers who pick the songs tho. Song choice is limited by what songs the voice gets legal permission to have people sing and to have variety in each show. The singers don't have a free choice to pick whatever they want
@INSANELLYx So it is essentially "that"! Her voice was dreadful! She decided to sing that song! "It's not that" is such an annoying London thing to say"! Indolent!
She's got a nice voice, but then so have many, she made the song her own yes, but there was no power in her voice. It was the lack of presence for me, not sure what she was thinking wearing pyjama shorties.
Just so you know not all auditions are 100% random. Most of them are pre-selected and/or the judges were given a headsup where they are briefed and/or given an idea on what questions to ask or the background of the person auditioning. This creates a more smoother audition and transition during the interaction. This was 100% evident on other version of the voice countries as well. So it isn't really impressive knowing that.
I was just thinking what you said. There's some bands out there that are really struggling that deserve to have a hit and they don't get it. It's just the gods of Music shine on you or they don't
When Sean Conlon said "so that's it then" That hit deep. Like in a way he was saying I tried everything and to no avail. The path that I'm going on is over. All this journey to come to and end to knowing that its over.
Yeah, he didn't really showcase himself well in the audition. I felt like he already gave up the moment he started singing. There was no fire, no "I want it so badly I'm gonna pour my heart and my lungs out". Kinda same road travelled with Kevin Simm, but the difference in audition is huge.
Yup, wrong song choice for sure..it can make or break you. But yeah, my heart sank when nobody turned around for him. And his friends looked gutted too. 🥺
I wouldn't say "greatest", but he was really really good. When he started I didn't know if it would be good & then he just sung tf outta that song. That's a hard song to sing
Kevin Simm put everything he had into that song and you just knew he felt it was his last chance. He didn’t get where he wanted to be in music but he sings the lead in wet wet wet and is still trying to be a successful solo singer/songwriter. Everytime I watch him sing Chandelier I get goosebumps ❤
Nothing at all special about her voice either. Actually, for me, it bordered on annoying noise. 😩 Could never listen to her. Had a tough time listening to this song.
i don't know the song (though it's vaguely familiar) but holy heck he killed it. goosebumps for sure. i hope he goes on and does well, whatever that may be.
Just because the judges are pop stars or producers doesn't mean they are all great coaches or they are not the right coach for that singer. For all the singers out there, don't be discourage. The point is to just sing on the stage, there is someone out there watching that can help you and it's probably not one of them and that's not a bad thing. Keep moving forward. Respects.
In my opinion I think he was digging her and she cooled his jets. He didn't say anything to off the rack but her antennas were going off. You can tell shes loyal.
Someone help me out...I wanted to actually hear the "Bonus Content" singers perform, and now I can't find the first guy anywhere online when I searched "Keiren???...not sure how to spell his name or if I even heard it correctly. Someone help me out...thx!
Esmee Denters is from the Netherlands. Justin Timberlake used her popularity by "helping" her career. But he helped himself first. He is never a good man. She did got very famous. Yet, She did got swallowed by the music business. I never heard anymore about her. I reside in The Netherlands.
@BZzMarauderexploiting her talent and star that was already on the rise. Like they said she had more streams/plays initially than many recording artists
Except Justin was already worldwide famous when they collabed 😂 Have you heard of NSYNC? She was internet famous at the time, yes, that's why she had millions of streams from her music but she sadly didn't sell well.
@Return-2-Monke Uuuuuurrrrrgggg, another idiot 🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻. Do l really need to explain ? Some singers go to the roof career wants to become a producer, give them the upcoming new star a record deal, promise all the popularity and money of the world (empty promises), while their own career is in the sudden slump, explaining there are no suitable songs for the upcoming star, but in the meantime create these songs for their own career, letting the star go as in "there was no momentum any more" for the both of us, no more music producer, music company go up in flames, but his career sudden rise with new songs. Are you telling me his career was never to crush women, non apologetic, narcistic little man ?!? Only because he is good looking, makes good music but we have to forgive his faulty ways as a human being ?!? Tell it to Janet Jackson, Esmee Denters and many other women he harmed becos his little ego cannot handle they are better as a human being with excellent vocal cords. Sure sure, same goes for the "Happy" song singer promised an uprising star with empty promises, now he designs luxury brand fashion. Some music producers ego do not care when they really put their money worth, they think star rises, good for my business. I have no stupid character flaws. I like to make bomb ass music for everyone to enjoy, the artist enjoys, fans enjoy the music, l enjoy when good things come our way. Everyone benefits.
In my opinion (editing as I'm watching) - first one picked a song that wasn't for her voice - second one felt like he could have done much more with that song, showing off his skills - third one just had to throw those notes out to show her range, knowing the song wouldn't 🤨 could've picked a better song to show what she can do - the fourth fell flat for me. I feel like he couldve done more but helt back. His voice just isn't one I would listen to - fifth one, winning me within 2 seconds unlike the others. He's the best out of them 5, even though he struggled a bit with the higher notes
His voice is beautiful, but the original song is so soft and beautifully sang, it was a hard task. And the way he reinterpreted it was a bit repetitive. People will always compare to the original.
i think it is because ot the Voice, so you can't turn around on each because you have limited places in your team. So if you turn around as the only person you need to have them on your team. If someone other turns around and then you the chances are smaler, that he/she chooses you.
It’s a setup . They knew who it was and waited until the end for dramatic effect. She was horrible, if it’s wasn’t a setup she wouldn’t have got one turn.
“Keep On Movin’” from 5ive is still one of my go-to songs for when I need positive motivation, honestly. I wasn’t that big into 5ive back in the day but I appreciate their music. These songs were BIG in the Philippines as boyband and girlband culture is appreciated here, alongside all music genres. By that I mean, there’s less of a social stigma here. “Until The Time Is Through” - I still sing this on my own sometimes. Still one of my fave boyband songs from the 90’s. “Slam Dunk (The Funk)” “If Ya Gettin’ Down” “When The Lights Go Out”
Mine too. I was fangirling when I had the opportunity to go and hang out with her and my choir lead, in my home town, a couple of years ago. She is very quiet, humble and sophisticated.
This guy really catched me. And it's brave to sing an SIA song . In german, we say : er hat sich "die Seele aus dem Leib gesungen ". (Translated maybe: "he sang his heart out"?!) Just using SOUL, not heart in german. When was he leaving? And what year? I have no idea who was winning TV UK anytime...
Kevin Simm is phenomenal the only other guy I've ever heard, seeing that almost sounds exactly like Phil Collins and his voice is just so classy. And nostalgic and classic classical, like, hmm, I was actually thinking all week. You know, because Phil Collins like he's up there like I don't know if he died, or he's still alive. Whatever but I was just like, oh if he passes away, what a loss for the world. Because just like every song he ever just sang he ever sang was just like a classic. A hit like that man never sing a song that wasn't good. Never, every song that man ever sang was just gold. And this guy Kevin SIM has that same voice, like he has the kind of voice that no matter what he sings, it's going to be pure gold. And I believe he won like the whole thing.If I can remember, I think he won the voice that year.That or that season.But anyway, yeah, he's he's the bee's knees, man.
He was really really good. I was so confused when he started, but then he sung tf outta that song. & it's so hard to sing that. Not many people pick that song bc of how hard it is to sing. He even made it his own . Yeah I watched him like 10x lol
That Aaron guy just sounds like karaoke. 👀😬 I don't think it was a good song choice for him. But I guess the pros know what to listen for? Wow. That Kevin guy made me feel like I was in church. He has a gift. Gives you the chills. 🔥🔥 very talented. He sings with his whole heart... You can feel it!
I think the karaoke thing which you’re totally correct about has to do with the fact that he’s been working as a Broadway singer and when you’re doing that, you’re trying to hit very specific notes because the song is supposed to be the same no matter who’s singing it and I think he imitates rather than sings true to himself. I guess you could say which I totally get cause I cannot just say I can only imitate other peoples songs not as well as the actual singers, but I cannot“make a song my own” I can sing it exactly like the artist and nothing else and I think that’s kind of what he does in this song just tries to sound like the artist.
It would’ve been great if they would have allowed Esmee to tell the actual truth of why she didn’t make it under JT’s label…and that is because she refused to sell her soul to the dark side of the music industry. #provemewrong
@timgledhill5167 so she didn't want to 'sell her soul' to the music industry and now she is running back to the same old music industry? Take your meds buddy.
I thought it started out pretty weak. But then he hit those power notes, and they started turning. But it’s hard for me, not to compare him to Jordan Smith, who sang the same song in his blind audition.
The first guy who didn't get picked (Five), I love his voice. Reminds me of a band I loved as a teen and the name and songs have slipped my mind at the moment. I hope he does something solo anyways. Like she said, she just couldn't see where she'd fit in helping him improve. Not that she didnt see his place, but she didn't see hers for him. Interesting. 21:13
Yeah I guess I kind of agree I mean I'm no singer but it wasn't as good as I was expecting she wasn't horrible but I thought she was going to be a lot better it could just be that particular song
I have to agree it wasn't a very good audition, she sounded like a nervous amateur in need of training although she does have a good voice. I wouldn't be surprised if it was staged though.
Kevin, should thank Trent for that chandelier rendition, I loved it when he performed it, and honestly Kevin performed it better than I ever could, but I think Trent still mastered the song better than any male performer I have ever seen.
A special nice voice, the song was nice but had no climax and that is the moment the judges are waiting for and it never happened, in this show you have to impress otherwise...
You have to impress the people in chairs. Song choice was safe, his voice pleasant, but honestly? I didn't feel from that audition like he wants to get back in the saddle. I listen to this kind of music as background music, not necessarily focusing on any particulars. That won't sell the records.
What most people don't realize is... if you were famous back then... you may have lost the fame... but you have never lost the talent that made you famous... so you can always bring yourself back up at any given point in time... even though the harsh reality's mess with the mind so bad that they bring your confidence down with what may seem like your talent... they can never bring down your talent... as it's always right in you... right where it should be... & if more people realized this... then so many more people would be super successful in life & the world... just may be... just may be... a better place... there are so many people with talent that don't even get the chance to start doing what they do best cause of others that bring them down or the situations they are in through life... I wish that weren't true but it is.
I kind of feel like they’ve had their moment of fame, and good on them! That’s more than most people who love to sing get to experience. Let some other young unknowns come up and have their moment of fame..
@katerinapatiniotis5598 if you ever visit the netherlands you might find out we do not see it this way. To dutch standards this is not rude. We on the other hand have ,,a thing,, when someone is polite in our face and behind our back talks ......... Secondly this lady had her fair share off a lot off promisses out off ,,the industrie,, smoothtalking like Ricky. And no. I wont do the same when i visit your country. Just pointing out that dutch lady s dont fall for this kind of talk. And please notice the difference between her and will.i.am ( who was owed by her achievement at one time) and her and Ricky. And for your info: the show started in the netherlands first. Here it stopped for a few years because off inpropper behaviour/remark by the coaches/bandleader.
Kevin Simm one. He was in a group called Liberty X who were formed from the people not picked on a reality show. The show was about finding a band. The group that got picked ended up being Hearsay. But Liberty X were more successful
I think the song wasn’t right for her voice. She was pretty flat, seemed a bit out of breath & tried to do too much. I think it’s not really a good audition song either. It would’ve been better later in the show with some work with Tom. I do think she has a good voice when she was on. Just think a different song would’ve been better & she might’ve had more coach options.
@Atochabshin her introduction part before she got on stage, she was singing along to her own group’s song & wasn’t singing on key, so I wasn’t super hopeful when she got to her performance. The runs she started singing right before the track kicked in were strange too. They weren’t necessary. I never saw that season, but I do wonder if she ever got better.
Most of them really picked the wrong songs. That really is annoying me. They CAN sing...
Ye me to I was so annoyed I had to forward the songs no wonder they didn't succeed bad taste.
It's often the producers who pick the songs tho. Song choice is limited by what songs the voice gets legal permission to have people sing and to have variety in each show. The singers don't have a free choice to pick whatever they want
@EK-1234 This has to be an US issue then? Because from interviews from candidates from the EU they could pick their songs on their own.
They can't lol
Otherwise they won't be here.
@wizzmatrix 🤡
Maybe it's just me, but I thought Esmée's voice was all over the place and pitchy on her audition.
Yes it was 😐
Especially near the end of the song, she sounded like she was trying too hard to get them to turn. And yes, the song didn't work for her at all.
Its not that, she is accommodating the song to her voice. When she should have picked a song for her voice rather than flip it
@INSANELLYx So it is essentially "that"! Her voice was dreadful! She decided to sing that song! "It's not that" is such an annoying London thing to say"! Indolent!
She's got a nice voice, but then so have many, she made the song her own yes, but there was no power in her voice. It was the lack of presence for me, not sure what she was thinking wearing pyjama shorties.
i am more impressed with will's memory
Me too, holy cow. There are some people I worked with in 2008 and I can't remember their names, even after working with them every day for years
Just so you know not all auditions are 100% random. Most of them are pre-selected and/or the judges were given a headsup where they are briefed and/or given an idea on what questions to ask or the background of the person auditioning. This creates a more smoother audition and transition during the interaction. This was 100% evident on other version of the voice countries as well. So it isn't really impressive knowing that.
@renmarabagat1171 well, that's a bummer...
@renmarabagat1171oh dear that's unfortunate, but good to know!
Right
There's no shame in being a one hit wonder. Most don't get that. At least you have that one hit
Absolutely correct.
Agreed, but most aren't going into it thinking they will be one and done.
I was just thinking what you said. There's some bands out there that are really struggling that deserve to have a hit and they don't get it. It's just the gods of Music shine on you or they don't
i agree too
They hawe good voices and bad tastes on songs .
When Sean Conlon said "so that's it then" That hit deep. Like in a way he was saying I tried everything and to no avail. The path that I'm going on is over. All this journey to come to and end to knowing that its over.
Bcz he chose the wrong song some songs doesn't fit with some voices.
@Sorinarmy true... That song was such a huge cock up... But at least he reminded me of a song I haven't heard in a while😊
@Sorinarmy He needed a faster song with more range. It’s a pretty enough song, but it didn’t showcase what he can do, unless that’s it.
Yeah, he didn't really showcase himself well in the audition. I felt like he already gave up the moment he started singing. There was no fire, no "I want it so badly I'm gonna pour my heart and my lungs out". Kinda same road travelled with Kevin Simm, but the difference in audition is huge.
Yup, wrong song choice for sure..it can make or break you. But yeah, my heart sank when nobody turned around for him. And his friends looked gutted too. 🥺
Kevin Simm is still one of the greatest singers ever to be on the Voice. So ridiculously underrated.
Maybe check with your doctor that you're on the right medication dude!
I wouldn't say "greatest", but he was really really good. When he started I didn't know if it would be good & then he just sung tf outta that song. That's a hard song to sing
Kevin Simm put everything he had into that song and you just knew he felt it was his last chance. He didn’t get where he wanted to be in music but he sings the lead in wet wet wet and is still trying to be a successful solo singer/songwriter. Everytime I watch him sing Chandelier I get goosebumps ❤
@Pantherking916weird comment
Didn't know him but dang! He has some vocals! Very well done! I felt his passion
Some of these judges used to be famous, too, to be honest. Tom Jones is the exception. A legend
fr
They still are
@MsPinkwolf Meh.
And one is a legend! 😎
@sjaool😂
Some of these artists are picking the wrong songs for them. Why not pick the song that made you famous
I don't think they can as then it could be too easy to recognise them and the whole point is for the judges not to know who is singing
The dude that picked Chandelier did a good job of choosing a song that showed his range.
10:25 yeah...it wasnt good at all
Definitely wrong songs and tastes they have a good voice just the taset of music and fitting.
I COULD NOT AGREE WITH U MORE
First girl picked the wrong song and she chose runs that didn't fit.
I agree 100%, bad song choice.
Nothing at all special about her voice either. Actually, for me, it bordered on annoying noise. 😩 Could never listen to her. Had a tough time listening to this song.
Maybe learning the melody would have helped. She has Mariah Carey Disease.
Runs for sure
True
the guy who sang Chandelier, Kevin Simms feels like fighting for his children's future. so much depth
i don't know the song (though it's vaguely familiar) but holy heck he killed it. goosebumps for sure. i hope he goes on and does well, whatever that may be.
The boys from Five all went through Hell! It's awesome that the group has gotten back together and is touring ; especially after seeing this .
Kevim Simms’ performance seems like it’s a for finale show of the season! Goosebumps!
Just because the judges are pop stars or producers doesn't mean they are all great coaches or they are not the right coach for that singer. For all the singers out there, don't be discourage. The point is to just sing on the stage, there is someone out there watching that can help you and it's probably not one of them and that's not a bad thing. Keep moving forward. Respects.
first girl was cheeky with the last judge. She assumed he was flirting but I don't think he was.
Christine, you need to learn in differentiating jokes.... she was teasing
In my opinion I think he was digging her and she cooled his jets. He didn't say anything to off the rack but her antennas were going off. You can tell shes loyal.
Lol she just foreign
@Axiom61 Yeah. She was the one being a little cheeky, if anything.
Song choice is everything. You can be an amazing singer, but singing the wrong song can really steal your thunder.
Someone help me out...I wanted to actually hear the "Bonus Content" singers perform, and now I can't find the first guy anywhere online when I searched "Keiren???...not sure how to spell his name or if I even heard it correctly. Someone help me out...thx!
KEVIN SIMM wowwwwwww, he sing from his heart and you know when we hear someone sing from the heart turn out amazingggg 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
He can't sing.
That guy who sang chandelier was amazing!
Kevin simm's audition was incredible!
The chandelier guy sang his heart out
Esmee Denters is from the Netherlands. Justin Timberlake used her popularity by "helping" her career. But he helped himself first. He is never a good man. She did got very famous. Yet, She did got swallowed by the music business. I never heard anymore about her.
I reside in The Netherlands.
How did he help himself?
@BZzMarauderexploiting her talent and star that was already on the rise. Like they said she had more streams/plays initially than many recording artists
Except Justin was already worldwide famous when they collabed 😂
Have you heard of NSYNC?
She was internet famous at the time, yes, that's why she had millions of streams from her music but she sadly didn't sell well.
@Return-2-Monke Uuuuuurrrrrgggg, another idiot 🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻. Do l really need to explain ? Some singers go to the roof career wants to become a producer, give them the upcoming new star a record deal, promise all the popularity and money of the world (empty promises), while their own career is in the sudden slump, explaining there are no suitable songs for the upcoming star, but in the meantime create these songs for their own career, letting the star go as in "there was no momentum any more" for the both of us, no more music producer, music company go up in flames, but his career sudden rise with new songs. Are you telling me his career was never to crush women, non apologetic, narcistic little man ?!? Only because he is good looking, makes good music but we have to forgive his faulty ways as a human being ?!? Tell it to Janet Jackson, Esmee Denters and many other women he harmed becos his little ego cannot handle they are better as a human being with excellent vocal cords.
Sure sure, same goes for the "Happy" song singer promised an uprising star with empty promises, now he designs luxury brand fashion.
Some music producers ego do not care when they really put their money worth, they think star rises, good for my business. I have no stupid character flaws. I like to make bomb ass music for everyone to enjoy, the artist enjoys, fans enjoy the music, l enjoy when good things come our way. Everyone benefits.
I didn’t like her voice or style of singing at all in this audition.
In my opinion (editing as I'm watching)
- first one picked a song that wasn't for her voice
- second one felt like he could have done much more with that song, showing off his skills
- third one just had to throw those notes out to show her range, knowing the song wouldn't 🤨 could've picked a better song to show what she can do
- the fourth fell flat for me. I feel like he couldve done more but helt back. His voice just isn't one I would listen to
- fifth one, winning me within 2 seconds unlike the others. He's the best out of them 5, even though he struggled a bit with the higher notes
I agree. Wrong song!
Sean Conlon....no one turned.... that must HURT!!!!!
I'd have ran off the stage in tears!
then you are a loser
His voice is beautiful, but the original song is so soft and beautifully sang, it was a hard task. And the way he reinterpreted it was a bit repetitive. People will always compare to the original.
@terrysnedigar4359 Wow... Did nobody teach you some respect in your life?
@hinagikumusic I doubt they even know the meaning of the word....! 🤣
@duncanknifton6613 Sad but true.
Kevin simm from liberty X... Just wow, got the goosebumps, when I get them I just know
Sean Conlon attitude reflected in his singing like it didn't really matter to him and that's why no one turned around
Kevin knocked it out of the park.🎉
Its so crazy as soon as one artist wants her then they all want her meanwhile no one turned around the whole thing....
i think it is because ot the Voice, so you can't turn around on each because you have limited places in your team. So if you turn around as the only person you need to have them on your team. If someone other turns around and then you the chances are smaler, that he/she chooses you.
It's called showbusiness
It's also important which song to sing. Kevin Simm chose a song that is in everyone's ear.
She should've just sang her 80's hit 😮
I went to see John Legend in concert and can honestly say I enjoyed it more than any concert I've been too. Great songs. Nice night overall.
Esmee felt like a consolation turn.
It was. She was out of tune.
I agree she was so out of tune..it was a sympathy turn...or at least that's how it felt...just saying
It wasn't the best song for her to do for her to show her ability but her voice was amazing just wrong song choice
Honestly! Bet he regretted it when she kept insisting she was flirting. Girl he is complicated and judging you per his job….. she’s insufferable
It’s a setup . They knew who it was and waited until the end for dramatic effect. She was horrible, if it’s wasn’t a setup she wouldn’t have got one turn.
Sean, you write some good songs and you can still rise again. You have a terrific sound that I enjoyed immensely.
“Keep On Movin’” from 5ive is still one of my go-to songs for when I need positive motivation, honestly. I wasn’t that big into 5ive back in the day but I appreciate their music. These songs were BIG in the Philippines as boyband and girlband culture is appreciated here, alongside all music genres. By that I mean, there’s less of a social stigma here.
“Until The Time Is Through” - I still sing this on my own sometimes. Still one of my fave boyband songs from the 90’s.
“Slam Dunk (The Funk)”
“If Ya Gettin’ Down”
“When The Lights Go Out”
Esmee Denters reminds me of Jenifer Lawrence with her looks and attitude. I can see her ended up acting and singing!
I am dutch and do not think she has an attitude. This is a dutch lady who know what she wants to do in live.
@hen@henkoosterhof5947im a kiwi and agree with you. She is a strong woman and showed who she is which people should respect.
@henkoosterhof5947no she is arrogant full of herself big headed the industry and Justin dropped her ass.
@henkoosterhof5947thank you! I saw so many comments about her attitude and then was so confused when I watched the video and was not picking it up
Kevins song fit really well for his voice !
Kevin's voice... holy crap
When the coach's reaction after being picked is as excited as the contestant or even more excited, it's always satisfying to me.
Wow. only 1 chair turned for Denise Pearson? 😮
And she is better than many of these judges, so sad.
Sharps and flats
@mykmendoza7335and 4 chairs turned for the first girl? I dont think she sounded better than Denise.
She is lovely and incredible. Solo, I think she tried way too hard. They have to be nervous.
Yeah she was real good
Loved the Chandelier rendition of this man :) Wonderful x
I can see why Esmee’s singing career didn’t go further
That's so mean!
I bet you attract heavy rain when you open your mouth to sing!
Kevin Simm NAILED that!!
5 Star was one of my favorite groups. I still have the albums and CDs
Mine too. I was fangirling when I had the opportunity to go and hang out with her and my choir lead, in my home town, a couple of years ago. She is very quiet, humble and sophisticated.
Kevin Simm is sexxxy AS F when he sings. I had to play it 3 times. Woo!!
Chandelier done by a male and done nice he gave it justice good one Mr. Simms
Just goes to show you that the industry treats these "stars" as disposable.
Still think that Kevin's was the best male audition on the UK version. And what a great run to follow it!
This guy really catched me. And it's brave to sing an SIA song .
In german, we say : er hat sich "die Seele aus dem Leib gesungen ". (Translated maybe: "he sang his heart out"?!) Just using SOUL, not heart in german.
When was he leaving? And what year? I have no idea who was winning TV UK anytime...
32:40 nah, I'd have gone with homie on the right. You could tell he was in it all the way as a mentor
He ended up with him in the end and won.
Kevin Simm is phenomenal the only other guy I've ever heard, seeing that almost sounds exactly like Phil Collins and his voice is just so classy. And nostalgic and classic classical, like, hmm, I was actually thinking all week. You know, because Phil Collins like he's up there like I don't know if he died, or he's still alive. Whatever but I was just like, oh if he passes away, what a loss for the world. Because just like every song he ever just sang he ever sang was just like a classic. A hit like that man never sing a song that wasn't good. Never, every song that man ever sang was just gold. And this guy Kevin SIM has that same voice, like he has the kind of voice that no matter what he sings, it's going to be pure gold. And I believe he won like the whole thing.If I can remember, I think he won the voice that year.That or that season.But anyway, yeah, he's he's the bee's knees, man.
He was really really good. I was so confused when he started, but then he sung tf outta that song. & it's so hard to sing that. Not many people pick that song bc of how hard it is to sing. He even made it his own . Yeah I watched him like 10x lol
That Aaron guy just sounds like karaoke. 👀😬 I don't think it was a good song choice for him. But I guess the pros know what to listen for?
Wow. That Kevin guy made me feel like I was in church. He has a gift. Gives you the chills. 🔥🔥 very talented. He sings with his whole heart... You can feel it!
I think the karaoke thing which you’re totally correct about has to do with the fact that he’s been working as a Broadway singer and when you’re doing that, you’re trying to hit very specific notes because the song is supposed to be the same no matter who’s singing it and I think he imitates rather than sings true to himself.

But she's selling her soul now? 😅
@Return-2-Monke Is she? How so?
@timgledhill5167 so she didn't want to 'sell her soul' to the music industry and now she is running back to the same old music industry? Take your meds buddy.
@cheeky6941 Hey “buddy,” sounds like you need a refresher course in reading comprehension.
Nah she's boring
Kevin was the best out of all the other singers
I agree
I thought it started out pretty weak. But then he hit those power notes, and they started turning.
But it’s hard for me, not to compare him to Jordan Smith, who sang the same song in his blind audition.
Kevin - best audition I've ever seen. Watched it so many times and it makes me cry...😢😢
YASSSSS ‼️ He was so freaking good 🗣️
He has a amazing voice
Broadway guy should have done a Broadway/pop song. Loads of good options and he'd of killed it
The bonus content is something else :)
3:21 Will I Am didn’t seem like he wanted to turn around
She wasn't any interesting. Just okay. You can't make it big if you're boring with just average voice.
How they didn't pick Sean is beyond me. The song selection, voice control and command of the piano was all spot on!
Today we learned why they were one hit wonders.
The first guy who didn't get picked (Five), I love his voice. Reminds me of a band I loved as a teen and the name and songs have slipped my mind at the moment. I hope he does something solo anyways. Like she said, she just couldn't see where she'd fit in helping him improve. Not that she didnt see his place, but she didn't see hers for him. Interesting. 21:13
The whole Esmee situation was a setup. She didn't sing that great. It was all set up for dramatic effect, them waiting till the last second.
Thought her voice left a lot to be desired.
Yup
Yeah I guess I kind of agree I mean I'm no singer but it wasn't as good as I was expecting she wasn't horrible but I thought she was going to be a lot better it could just be that particular song
I have to agree it wasn't a very good audition, she sounded like a nervous amateur in need of training although she does have a good voice. I wouldn't be surprised if it was staged though.
The set ups are getting a bit too obvious
Kevin, should thank Trent for that chandelier rendition, I loved it when he performed it, and honestly Kevin performed it better than I ever could, but I think Trent still mastered the song better than any male performer I have ever seen.
Denise Pearson is GOLD!!!!!!!!!!
I used to love ''Outta here'' by Esmee Denters and i think i still do
I'm def checking it out
At 12:27...
Kelly - I love Jesus! I'm so down with Jesus! 😂
Esmee! I was obsessed with her channel when I started my first channel on RUclips back in 2008!
Браво.
OMG I loved 5 Star!
esmee used to be my crush when i was young. 😭 i’m actually sad things didn’t work out for her
16:16 I don't think I've seen anyone overqualified for Stronger 😂
Good selection.
Would have been nice if the channel included the names from the bonus content too.
(Foor for thought for future content).
Kieron from Ireland, Molly from Cornwall, Emmanuelle, a 23yr old kid, and a female plaster
Dangggg Esmee Talk about a LAST MINUTE 4 SEAT TURNER 😮
LOL, I love Kelly so much
Esmee! I haven’t heard her voice since Sims 3. Oh my goodness! This is crazy!
the guy who didnt get a chair turn was so good. what a voice! i cant believe he didnt get picked. beautiful voice.
A special nice voice, the song was nice but had no climax and that is the moment the judges are waiting for and it never happened, in this show you have to impress otherwise...
Honestly it was just a poor choice of song.
You have to impress the people in chairs. Song choice was safe, his voice pleasant, but honestly? I didn't feel from that audition like he wants to get back in the saddle. I listen to this kind of music as background music, not necessarily focusing on any particulars. That won't sell the records.
The Judges for Esmee’ acted like Lemmings needing one to push before they all pushed.
KEVIN SIMMS IS LEGIT.
I love how Kelly injects herself to compete to be chosen 😂❤❤❤
It is so sweet that they remembered her. So it is meant to be!! Give that girl a break!!!
He remembered her but she doesn't sing well.
They 'remembered' her because they were reminded to make good TV.
What most people don't realize is... if you were famous back then... you may have lost the fame... but you have never lost the talent that made you famous... so you can always bring yourself back up at any given point in time... even though the harsh reality's mess with the mind so bad that they bring your confidence down with what may seem like your talent... they can never bring down your talent... as it's always right in you... right where it should be... & if more people realized this... then so many more people would be super successful in life & the world... just may be... just may be... a better place... there are so many people with talent that don't even get the chance to start doing what they do best cause of others that bring them down or the situations they are in through life... I wish that weren't true but it is.
kevin simm is by far the best singer. That song chosen was also good.
Let's go ESMEE My girl! I used to listen to you on repeat religiously!
I kind of feel like they’ve had their moment of fame, and good on them! That’s more than most people who love to sing get to experience. Let some other young unknowns come up and have their moment of fame..
WOW, Deniece still fully cutting into it !!! Still a great voice AND amazing looks. Full package. Thanks, Tom.
I think someone in their ears told the judges to turn for the first girl. Either the song was wrong for her or she just didn't chose the right runs.
Oh I was just thinking about Esmee two weeks ago - still love that album :D
Welcome to the dutch way mr Ricky. Thats the dutch treat.
Being rude and cocky to someone you just met..... Wow! So being rude it's "cool" to you ?? That's embarrassing.
@katerinapatiniotis5598 if you ever visit the netherlands you might find out we do not see it this way. To dutch standards this is not rude. We on the other hand have ,,a thing,, when someone is polite in our face and behind our back talks .........
Secondly this lady had her fair share off a lot off promisses out off ,,the industrie,, smoothtalking like Ricky. And no. I wont do the same when i visit your country. Just pointing out that dutch lady s dont fall for this kind of talk. And please notice the difference between her and will.i.am ( who was owed by her achievement at one time) and her and Ricky.
And for your info: the show started in the netherlands first. Here it stopped for a few years because off inpropper behaviour/remark by the coaches/bandleader.
Kevin Simm one. He was in a group called Liberty X who were formed from the people not picked on a reality show. The show was about finding a band. The group that got picked ended up being Hearsay. But Liberty X were more successful
Where is Kevin Simm now? I can find his acoustic Chandelier, I like it. But I love SIA. And Boy George!!!!
Kevin is the lead singer of Wet Wet Wet. He replaced Marti Pellow
kevin’s performance legit gave me goosebumps
From the first note Denice Pearson sang better than Aquilera - I didnt know that is even possible🤯
Imagine being in the top 10 on music charts, and not being set for life because of greedy bastards that literally do absolutely nothing of value.
Almost every "boy band" ever.
Surprisingly loving it.
Loved Kevin Simm, great voice and he has a cool look too.
Kevin Sim was GREAT. Goosebumps ❤
Its called the Music Business.
Its about "Selling Stuffs" as well.
Like.. your soul
Literally my thoughts
Kevin Simm, singing for his life, incredible....
30:28 wow that was real.
They really didn't need to almost give Esmée a heart attack.
Is that Tom Jones? 😊
14:05 fire 🔥
18:18 I LOVE FIVE HAHAHA
Deniece Pearson - She was trying to do too much, but her voice is incredible, there's no denying that. I hope she relaxes and just be natural
I think the song wasn’t right for her voice. She was pretty flat, seemed a bit out of breath & tried to do too much. I think it’s not really a good audition song either. It would’ve been better later in the show with some work with Tom. I do think she has a good voice when she was on. Just think a different song would’ve been better & she might’ve had more coach options.
whe had that odd grunting noise in her singing. That turned me off 100%
@Atochabshin her introduction part before she got on stage, she was singing along to her own group’s song & wasn’t singing on key, so I wasn’t super hopeful when she got to her performance. The runs she started singing right before the track kicked in were strange too. They weren’t necessary. I never saw that season, but I do wonder if she ever got better.
