Dear Voice producers: you have had so many incredible artists winning or being close to win that so deserve a career but every single time a record comes out of them, has such a digital lifeless sound that makes their voices disappear and sound like everyone else. Unplugged is the path… and what the world misses now. Save music. Make Reuben a star with a raw sound please.
I enjoyed that when LeAnn and Ruben sang together she let his vocals take the lead and she didn’t over power his voice. Bravo LeAnn, Bravo. And the last song was just sick! Perfect song for you! Congratulations!
He definitely lost that duel, but he had a 'get out of jail' card - LeAnn Rimes. She would have moved him forward no matter what. We all knew that, right?! In my humble opinion, his only truly good performance was the audition. The rest were either worse or came pretty close to the audition. Hallelujah, in particular, was actually one of the worst ones for me (though, to be fair, it wasn't easy with such an odd matchup). That said, I feel bad for the one who made Hallelujah great this time - the lady. She made this version STUNNING!
@@ExbotHeroI can confirm that you absolutely must be tone deaf. This guy is INCREDIBLE. You thought he was quote ‘terrible’ that’s insane. Either you are letting your bias take over or you are genuinely not hearing what I’m hearing
@@TalkingofChels Don't project your own insecurities onto others, my friend. I stated a fact, and if you need to pretend that anyone who disagrees with your, frankly, overly romanticized view of his performance is "tone-deaf," that's on you. The simple fact is this: the woman was the X-factor in his performance-period. I’d rate his rendition of Hallelujah as average compared to the many versions I’ve heard. That doesn’t mean he’s bad; it just means he didn’t sing as well as you imagine he did. The keyword here is imagine. I say this as someone cursed with the opposite of tone-deafness. I have perfect pitch, which means I pick up every nuance-every slight mistake, flat note, limited range, or missed opportunity where others have excelled. He was good, sure, but not exceptional. That said, you completely missed my point. My comment wasn’t about him specifically; it was about the unfair setup of the duet. She was expected to carry him while simultaneously delivering a stellar performance herself. She’s trained, while he sings on emotion alone. If she had focused on showcasing herself as much as he did, the performance would have been a disaster. My point was to give her credit because she was put in a tough position, one where her loss was predetermined no matter what she did. You do understand ther consept of the show right?! (They wanted to develop him, not her.) In my opinion, she was sacrificed unfairly, and that’s why I chose to highlight her contribution. If your hero worship can’t handle that, that’s your issue
If I were a judge, I would never turn my chair until the last second. I want to hear the pure voice without the face behind it. There's plenty of time to know the singers. For a brief moment, just listen and breathe. With "Wicked Game" is opened his voice up too early and let the air out of the balloon. Needed to build more. Also, there's too much vocal gymnastics. Sing the words. Feel the words. Be the words. Reuben is yet another singer with a stunning voice. We've all learned, a great voice isn't enough. Reuben De Melo must make original, singular music, an almost impossible task. It's not enough to come out with another market driven pop album. Singers don't understand that there's another glass ceiling that they alone have to break through. The Voice, like American Idol, are glorified karaoke competitions. The real challenge starts when the new sun rises.
Reuben definitely deserved to win, his is a unique and soulful voice. Very few artists make you feel the song as they sing, and he does! Plus he had a great coach❤
Rueben so so deserved the win.... from I see Fire to House of the Rising Sun,. Leanne... full marks for shaping him to the win.... the duet Hallelujah was exceptional. i have listened to it over and over again, Larissa was exceptional too..
This is the best version of the rising Sun. I have ever heard ever and oh my God, amazing. I'm so glad he won. He definitely deserves it.His voice is phenomenal.
I think it would've been better if Reuben was singing alone. The lady's singing was too different and sounded squeaky. He sounded amazing when she was not trying to over sing him.
Well there's hope since it's AU. Even though X-Factor's Isaiah Firebrace Sony contract doesn't seem to do much to promote him, (only his first album charted and none of his singles thereafter)....at least it's still in effect. As a young kid 16 he had zero industry connections except Adam. They probably wouldn't DARE drop him since he's Aboriginal Australian and a good ambassador. And he was able to maintain his own style. This guy may have an advantage iwth his very specific genre, guitar and identifiable voice in the Teddy Swims vein.
I love that Adam has joined….he adds such much to the show and his feedback is so authentic and such a great judge. LeAnn brings such authentic emotion! This panel, minus Kate, is one of my all-time favorites!!!!!
The “my mother” and “my father” in HOTRS was craaaaazy full of emotions: the goosebumps I got were insane. Reuben sang his soul out. I’d buy every song sang by Reuben right now.
thanks Voice Global for giving us a longer, more in-depth journey with Reuben and LeAnne ~ congrats to Reuben and his beautiful family ~ wishing you the BEST
If there was a Global Voice competition, he would have won that too. What a voice! What an artist. Well done Reuben. 🫶🏻 I look forward to hearing you in the future.
was my pick from the blind auditions ... leann defiantly made the correct call using with the ultimate block for him ... he sings with emotion ...like leann does and their duet was great !!! i hope he has success in the future and hopefully Australia will get behind him
👏👏👏👏👏 My God, what a voice. Such a rare talent. All the best! I'm looking forward to seeing him become as famous as he deserves. Such a humble person and a family man. RESPECT!!!
Before the actual battle I'd thought it wasn't going to work between Reuben and Larissa. But they have been coached excellently into a duet that really works very well. Larissa did great and the choice whom to take through was more or less arbitrary - it was more about genre than musicality. It was more about perceived chances of a judge to have the winning candidate. Larissa's fear that it might not work - she got totally proven wrong here. It really worked. And it works for decades, for Bocelli and other tenors. In an interview with Bocelli about singing a duet with Ed Sheeran the question came up what was learnt from it. Bocelli shared that he had rehearsed the duet in a pop style and Sheeran wanted him to sing in his classical voice. And it really works, Bocelli admitted, and we can all agree.
Reuben was always in a different league compared to the other finalists. His voice is sensational, and it's a well-deserved win. Leanne has been a terrific coach, choosing fantastic songs that truly showcased Reuben's voice, range and artistry as a singer.
Every performance was stunning. Reuben unlocked something special in his voice with every song he sang. That duet with LeAnn was-well, it was the best I ever heard.
Wow. His voice is soulful, it's dreamy, it's raw power... Reuben, what an amazing gift you have! You have a voice that has such intricacies, it's like hearing several voices singing in harmony wrapped into 1. Reminds me of Chester Bennington's voice. I bet you could sing everything from Blues to Rock to Country if you tried. Congrats Reuben!
Stunning tone with spine-tingling, heartwarming texture and depth is an EXCEPTIONAL combination - huge congratulations, Reuben, you _definitely_ deserve it!
I’m stoked! Loved him from Auditions! Leanne picked perfect songs and mentored perfectly! And never changed who he was with his unique and soulful beautiful voice…she just slightly fine tuned Reuben and gave him the confidence he needed! I’ll be looking out for his music and downloading! Loved our kiwi singer too as she’s unique,gritty and absolutely beautiful too! What a great Aus voice. Thank you to all performers as they are ALL amazing along with the coaches and “The Australian Voice! Let voices be heard and sore! Can’t wait for 2025!❤️💝❤️🔥
I love how Leanne’s love with music shines through with her hearts passion, an excellent singer and coach! Congratulations Rueben! Blessings for a long career!
His audition was my favorite of any that i have been listening to over the last 5 years. I love this style of music because you need to put your heart into the lyrics for it to work. Congrst on a stellar win 2024
Even though I’m sure LeAnn wasn’t his going to be his first choice of coach, but she and him were so perfectly matched that it was just fate that put them together! Great job, LeAnn and Rueben! I’m so proud of y’all!
Wow Reuben is so handsome. Beautiful eyes. Great dress sense. Lovely smile. Best of all he knows what that “family” is the most important thing in the world. You can have all the money to buy anything but if you haven’t got family as well you can be miserable. Reuben there will be women and men trying to lure you into their trap. Don’t be tempted. You’ll ruin everything. Keep putting them first. Don’t let them work you too hard. You’ve got to have balance. Let God be your guide. All the very best!
What a talent! I hope he achieves global success! His wife is his best supporter. Not common that someone with 2 kids and a 3rd coming would risk the stability they had, but she is so confident in his talent that she entered him in the competition. Can we all also give the credit to LeAnn durign the duet. She did her part in supporting his talent not trying to outshine him as we see some coaches doing. I whish Reuben a long lasting success!
Kelly Rowland and Leann are the best coaches on all of the Voices. Leann really shines here as a coach on the Voice Australia. She did an excellent job and truly was invested in cultivating talent. And he is absolutely incredible! 5 stars all around! 🏆 👑
Let’s all congratulate Reuben on his amazing journey in the comments below! 🥳
We'll kick it off: Congratulations Reuben! 🤩
@@TheVoiceGlobal- Congratulations Reuben!
Congratulations Reuben🎉 I am speechless!
Congratulations Reuben! Lovely soul with a voice that reflects that. ❤🎉
Reuben definitely deserved it...what a magical voice ❤
Dear Voice producers: you have had so many incredible artists winning or being close to win that so deserve a career but every single time a record comes out of them, has such a digital lifeless sound that makes their voices disappear and sound like everyone else. Unplugged is the path… and what the world misses now. Save music. Make Reuben a star with a raw sound please.
I totally agree! They completely disappear . Please be true to the artists themselves that's why we watch!!
So well said. My sentiments over the years exactly.
Whew that duet… goosebumps! Both sides!!! ❤
Totally totally agree 👏🏻👏🏻
Can't say it better 😢
I enjoyed that when LeAnn and Ruben sang together she let his vocals take the lead and she didn’t over power his voice. Bravo LeAnn, Bravo. And the last song was just sick! Perfect song for you! Congratulations!
He definitely deserve to be the winner of The Voice Australia 2024.
That version of Hallelujah was STUNNING!
That's the only one I like the rest I don't like
Not because it's something we all know I guess that might be the answer hahahah

oh my heart!!! I cried so many times watching Reuben sing from his heart and Soul and LeAnn speaking from her heart and Soul!! Congratulations!!!

I need a full album of LeAnn and Reuben duets! Their voices together are soul bending.
I also absolutely loved his duet singing Hallelujah with the amazing classical singer 😍
That was a divinely inspired pairing and it was exquisite.😊
Absolutely loved their performance ❤
Dem! The ULTIMATE BLOCK was really worth it! Leanne really took that big step of faith for Reuben! All worth it.. all worth it!!
Wow! The opera singer and Reuben - best version of Hallelujah I’ve heard 🎉❤🙏
Yes!! That was a divinely inspired pairing and it was exquisite!
I had tears in my eyes as I listened. ❤
Ruben has an amazing voice but also kudos to LeAnn for recognising what songs to choose for him.
Reuben definitely deserved to win, his is a unique and soulful voice. Very few artists make you feel the song as they sing, and he does! Plus he had a great coach❤
I'm with you on that. Ruben's voice is amazing❤❤
Rueben so so deserved the win.... from I see Fire to House of the Rising Sun,. Leanne... full marks for shaping him to the win.... the duet Hallelujah was exceptional. i have listened to it over and over again, Larissa was exceptional too..
He deserved to be the winner of the voice 2024. Congratulations from KL, Malaysia. So proud of you...so so good...
His little one giving a thumbs up to dad is adorable.
He feels his music. He's got it all. Of course, his face is easy on the eyes.
That never hurts
Absolutely stunning. A true talent! Hats off to Leanne Rhymes for guiding him to victory! Great Team!!! 🎉
This is the best version of the rising Sun. I have ever heard ever and oh my God, amazing. I'm so glad he won. He definitely deserves it.His voice is phenomenal.
Leann took that Ultimate Block to the winners circle🏆 Wow.
Wow that voice - a deserved winner. Cant stop listening RELEASE THE ALBUM!
HALLELUJAH WAS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!!❤🎶
No, it was not as good. No meaning. She sung better than him.
I think it would've been better if Reuben was singing alone. The lady's singing was too different and sounded squeaky. He sounded amazing when she was not trying to over sing him.
Congratulations to Reuben and his Family!!! ❤
Excellent Coaching every step of the way. Reuben can be a global star. Congrats!
Big fan from the U.S.! Congrats Reuben!!
I am so in love with him! I can’t wait to hear more! I hope the entertainment industry doesn’t change his look or essence!
Well there's hope since it's AU. Even though X-Factor's Isaiah Firebrace Sony contract doesn't seem to do much to promote him, (only his first album charted and none of his singles thereafter)....at least it's still in effect.

This guy may have an advantage iwth his very specific genre, guitar and identifiable voice in the Teddy Swims vein.
And what a winner he is!!! Big fan in the US!! Congrats Reuben!!
Beautiful journey! Wishing Reuben great success!
Once in a lifetime, the universe is presented with a voice of this kind.
Awesome
I love that Adam has joined….he adds such much to the show and his feedback is so authentic and such a great judge. LeAnn brings such authentic emotion! This panel, minus Kate, is one of my all-time favorites!!!!!
LeAnn? Really ?
nah
Kate also doesn’t vibe with me can’t put my finger on why. Leanne is definitely a favourite tho!!
CONGRATULATIONS 🎉 REUBEN YOU ARE AMAZING fromTEXAS
So glad to see the family man win!
He's great, a natural singer. Amazing.
The “my mother” and “my father” in HOTRS was craaaaazy full of emotions: the goosebumps I got were insane. Reuben sang his soul out. I’d buy every song sang by Reuben right now.
thanks Voice Global for giving us a longer, more in-depth journey with Reuben and LeAnne ~ congrats to Reuben and his beautiful family ~ wishing you the BEST
What a rediculous voice this man has! Gritty, growling (but totally in pitch), and man...the texture is unbelievable. 👏🤝💪🙏
Wonderful artist - a voice in a million. Well done Reuben I hope your success brings you and your delightful family all that you hope for ❤
Wow, such a unique and awesome voice and such a humble guy. Can't wait to have him in my playlist! Wish him and his family success!

I LOVE the ultimate block. Congratulations Le Ann, first time as a coach and first time as a WINNER! Good for Rueben.
If there was a Global Voice competition, he would have won that too. What a voice! What an artist. Well done Reuben. 🫶🏻 I look forward to hearing you in the future.
The duet made me cry. So incredibly beautiful.
Stunning!!

Oh my goodness I SO enjoyed this! He is amazing! So happy a humble family man won.
That version of Hallelujah was absolutely sublime. I have a whole new respect for Leann Rimes.
Her talent goes beyond her voice. She has earned a new respect from me as well
His voice is a treasure!❤

Oh my. chills during the whole song. Awesome. I can totally understand why Reuben won.
Man! How good is he? Crazy good. I'd buy a record from Reuben straight up. Wow!
Reuben was always in a different league compared to the other finalists. His voice is sensational, and it's a well-deserved win. Leanne has been a terrific coach, choosing fantastic songs that truly showcased Reuben's voice, range and artistry as a singer.
I wish The Voice Global will feature all of The Voice winners globally. To pitch in all these incredible voices.
I am with you❤
This is my favorite version ever! Thank you! I hope you record and publish this together!
Leann has such the purest kindest soul and she truly wants the best for everyone
Every performance was stunning. Reuben unlocked something special in his voice with every song he sang. That duet with LeAnn was-well, it was the best I ever heard.
My goodness! Love love Reuben's voice, quiet down to earth essence, soulful renditions.... Total fan girl!
Wow. His voice is soulful, it's dreamy, it's raw power... Reuben, what an amazing gift you have! You have a voice that has such intricacies, it's like hearing several voices singing in harmony wrapped into 1. Reminds me of Chester Bennington's voice. I bet you could sing everything from Blues to Rock to Country if you tried. Congrats Reuben!
Ruben voice is multitalented he’s already a star
Love the complete journey of Reuben!
By the way, that version of "Hallelujah" was one of the best I've ver hear, just amazing!!!
Beyond epic vocal talent,Congrats Reuben👏👏👏
Stunning tone with spine-tingling, heartwarming texture and depth is an EXCEPTIONAL combination - huge congratulations, Reuben, you _definitely_ deserve it!
Absolutely incredible juxtaposition of voices on the Hallelujah.... Beautiful arrangement. Well done Leanne....
Stunning!
Chills. Stunning!
Reuben pls don't leave ur wife she is divine, so supportive i love her. Kudos wifey, i celebrate u dear❤
That’s weird! Why would he leave his wife and why would you even comment on his marriage
I’m stoked! Loved him from Auditions! Leanne picked perfect songs and mentored perfectly! And never changed who he was with his unique and soulful beautiful voice…she just slightly fine tuned Reuben and gave him the confidence he needed! I’ll be looking out for his music and downloading! Loved our kiwi singer too as she’s unique,gritty and absolutely beautiful too! What a great Aus voice. Thank you to all performers as they are ALL amazing along with the coaches and “The Australian Voice! Let voices be heard and sore! Can’t wait for 2025!❤️💝❤️🔥
What am inspirational singer. He just has an inmate talent!! 😊
An “inmate talent?” Like Johnny Cash? Merle Haggard? His musical career began while performing for his fellow inmates? 😂
That choke when he talks about his dad when he gave up his music to provide is very wholesome and inspiring.. God bless his whole family
time?
Minute 33
Beautiful family, beautiful voice, I hope nothing but success and happiness for him and his family.
He a million times better than what I’ve seen on The Voice in America .
Una de las mejores y más entrañables emisiones del concurso "La Voz" a nivel mundial, todo es maravilloso en La Voz Australia", muchas gracias ❤
My new FAVORITE voice.....hope to see you in the United States in the future!❤
I love how Leanne’s love with music shines through with her hearts passion, an excellent singer and coach! Congratulations Rueben! Blessings for a long career!
The soul sings what the heart holds ❤️ congratulations & continued success 🙏
One of the best voice AUSTRALIA SINGERS EVER.
Looking forward to his album!!! Dam, those stones and the dessert sing through him as well... I am deeply moved by his expression...
That Halleluyah…that was heavenly!The best version i ever heard that song sang😮👏👏👏
Ruben has one of those extraordinarily rare identifiable voices. Wishing this young man the best in his future.
Just love this guy's voice and music! I can't wait for his first album!!!❤He seems like a sweetie, too.
Congratulations Reuben🎉
Ruben your such an amazing artist wishing you the best on this new journey 🎉🎉🎉
Every song he sang was awesome, but the one I loved the most was his blind audition.
Ruben has such a beautiful unique voice. He is absolutely amazing
His audition was my favorite of any that i have been listening to over the last 5 years. I love this style of music because you need to put your heart into the lyrics for it to work. Congrst on a stellar win 2024
That's Real,Real,Real LOVE!!!REAL Family!Real TALANT!❤❤❤
Even though I’m sure LeAnn wasn’t his going to be his first choice of coach, but she and him were so perfectly matched that it was just fate that put them together! Great job, LeAnn and Rueben! I’m so proud of y’all!
FYI - The VOICE AUSTRALIA is the best in the world….say this American!
I so agree. Incredible singers and coaches. I don’t want any of them to leave!
I agree! They always have better singers than us. And there's usually alot of them lol.
I agree but this year wasn’t as good as normal, this gentlemen tho is
I totally agree!!
Norway is decent
Tremendously talented. Reuben, bid you continued success!
The years from “Fix You”. Beautiful!
Wow Reuben is so handsome. Beautiful eyes. Great dress sense. Lovely smile. Best of all he knows what that “family” is the most important thing in the world. You can have all the money to buy anything but if you haven’t got family as well you can be miserable. Reuben there will be women and men trying to lure you into their trap. Don’t be tempted. You’ll ruin everything. Keep putting them first. Don’t let them work you too hard. You’ve got to have balance. Let God be your guide. All the very best!
This dude is such a family man like me ... I wish him the best there is ❤
What a talent! I hope he achieves global success! His wife is his best supporter. Not common that someone with 2 kids and a 3rd coming would risk the stability they had, but she is so confident in his talent that she entered him in the competition. Can we all also give the credit to LeAnn durign the duet. She did her part in supporting his talent not trying to outshine him as we see some coaches doing. I whish Reuben a long lasting success!
Kelly Rowland and Leann are the best coaches on all of the Voices. Leann really shines here as a coach on the Voice Australia. She did an excellent job and truly was invested in cultivating talent. And he is absolutely incredible! 5 stars all around! 🏆 👑
Man, some people were just born to be that good. Good on you bro. Good on you.
Lets take a moment for Miss Leann, my goodness....stunning.
Congratulations Reuben! Amazjng singer! 👏
Very good Singer! He deserved to Win!
Oregon, USA
