**Back for redemption**

**Magic moments and familiar faces on The Voice**

> Tonight on **The Voice** , a familiar face returned for redemption while Guy Sebastian used his last remaining block to sensationally stop Jessica Mauboy from securing powerhouse performer Celestial Utai.
> 
> First on stage, Lane Pittman from NSW chose to pay tribute to his late father in his Blind Audition by singing Luke Combs’ _Even Though I’m Leaving._
> 
> The coaches were floored by the 15 year old’s moving performance, with Jess calling it a “magic moment.” Lane ultimately chose Team Keith, becoming the eighth member of his team.
> 
> Western Australian K-Pop fan Amber Reid performed BTS’ international smash-hit _Butter_ , instantly spinning chairs for Jess, Guy and Rita. The 23-year-old TikTok creator was lauded for her energy and positivity before choosing Team Jess. _“_ You are what this show is all about,” said Jess in awe of Amber’s style and spirit.
> 
> Twenty-nine-year-old Chriddy Black from QLD returned to **The Voice** stage for redemption after his 2019 journey ended in the Battles with Team Guy. Planning to perform as a duo tonight, Chriddy was dealt a curveball when his friend failed to show for their audition. Determined to take to the stage, Chriddy performed solo, turning all four coaches’ chairs with _Stay_ by The Kid Laroi and Justin Bieber.
> 
> “You are super unique,” said Keith before welcoming Chriddy to his team.
> 
> Connor Wink from NSW paid tribute to his idol, Cher, singing _Believe_ and turning all four coaches’ chairs. The twenty-three-year-old blind singer said music made him feel at peace and connected with other people, before choosing to join Team Guy.

> Twenty-two-year-old Celestial Utai (pictured) aimed sky-high, challenging herself with Beyoncé’s technical track, _Déjà vu._ The move paid off with all coaches instantly pitching for the proud Samoan singer from QLD. “You are the face of everything we have been talking about right now. That’s a gift. You owned it; bared your soul with such celebration,” praised Jess before Guy blocked her mid-pitch, claiming she was his biggest competition. After welcoming her to his team, Guy awarded Celestial the all-important Battle Pass.

The Blind Auditions finished up last night. What’s the rundown of the series now? There’s a show on tonight, then continues next week. Some judges hit the “buzzer” for sone contestants to make it straight to the battle rounds. So what airs before the battle rounds?

@yellow_sock

Also new this season is The Callbacks: a tough new round for the coaches as they must decide who they will take through to the next round from their chosen 12 artists.

Each coach will review their team during a deliberation to decide which artist goes straight through to The Battles, which artists will be grouped to perform in The Callbacks and which artists will go straight home. Teams will go from 12 to six artists.

After The Callbacks are complete, each artist must prove their star power again to their coach against their fellow artists in the iconic Battle Rounds. In the Battle Rounds, each coach pairs their six artists into three groups of two.

The duos sing the same song and the coach decides a winner.

In a new twist, the winners of each Battle will then perform a Sing For Your Life song to determine the final two artists on each team to progress to the Semi-Finals.

The Semi-Final sees each coaches’ remaining two artists singing for survival with their last chance to claim their position Grand Final.

The Grand Final will see the top-four artists take to the stage with their coach for a show-stopping duet. At the end of the Grand Final, Australia will decide which of the four finalists will be crowned **The Voice** of 2022.

Honestly. This stuff is why this show fails after The Blinds.

They do so many blind auditions and then rush through everything else. I honestly don’t know why they do it when it ruins the whole viewing experience. I prefer them to stretch the season out if they’re going to do so many blinds and let each element of the show flow naturally.

Its the same problem as last year’s series. This show tonight could have been run as two episodes. It would have been better to let everyone have another chance to perform on stage in this round.

Just saw the recording of Callbacks this afternoon. I agree with Tom\_TV7 that the process was too rushed, and some contestants were eliminated without being able to return to the stage and sing again. This episode should have been shown over two episodes.  
I wonder if it was during this Callbacks stage that a contestant tested positive to COVID and filming had to finish early for the Christmas break?

> I think they are actually filming the Generation Auditions as well as the ones for the Original series at the same time. I actually attended one of the Recordings This Week and there was one older guy that auditioned. You won’t believe how old he is when you see him. But that’s not the interesting bit though. And that’s where i’ll leave it.

I think you are referring to 80-year-old Conrad de Silva, whose audition aired on April 27. He performed L-O-V-E with his wife of 50 years watching from the side.

I posted back in January this year that there were 3 recording sessions for the Battles, with night 3 listed as the Final. This is what I think had occurred:  
Night 1: Team Keith and Team Guy had their duet battles  
Night 2: Team Jess and Team Rita had their duet battles  
Night 3: Jess and Guy performed their singles, then the 13 battle winners (including Celestial and Jordan from Team Guy) returned to hear who would go straight to semi-finals. The nine remaining contestants had to sing for their life before their coaches delivered the verdicts.

Through editing, performances involving Team Keith and Team Guy and Jess’s performance of Glow were compiled with night 1 performances to form last night’s episode; Guy’s performance, Team Jess and Team Rita battles and sing for their life will be shown next Sunday (May 15).

### The Voice Semi-Finalists are locked in\*\*

**Emotional Battles showdown leaves Rita in tears**

> Tonight on **The Voice** , Team Jess and Team Rita’s artists went head to head in Battle, vying for a life-changing spot in the Semi-Final.
> 
> With only two places on each team, one victorious Battle artist advanced to the Semi-Final, while the other two Battle winners had to sing for their life.
> 
> Superstar coach Jess staged the ultimate showdown for powerhouse vocalists Emily-Jade Conidi from Victoria and Faith Sosene from QLD. After performing Whitney Houston’s _I’m Your Baby Tonight_ , Jess awarded Faith the victor, identifying her as “someone who has more to prove on the stage.”
> 
> Jael Wena from Victoria lit up the Battle arena, securing a win over NSW artist Richard Tsunami after their epic duet of Michael Jackson’s _Thriller_ .
> 
> Jess asked NSW artists Finnian Johnson and Kaylee Bell to “be vulnerable and dig deep,” during Fleetwood Mac’s classic _Landslide._ Finnian won the Battle after Jess declared his tone “is meant to tell stories.”
> 
> Team Jess’ Battle winners Jael, Faith and Finnian faced off; Jael progressed straight to the Semi-Final, while Faith and Finnian sang for their life.
> 
> Faith’s show-stopping performance of Aretha Franklin’s _Ain’t No Way_ cemented her Semi-Final spot. Jess acknowledged: “It comes down to who I think fought harder just now, because that fight is what you need to win.” Finnian departed **The Voice** despite his “magnificent” performance of _You Are the Reason_ by Calum Scott.
> 
> On Team Rita, the emotional Battle showdown between Victorian Lachie Gill and Battle Pass winner Theoni Marks, from NSW, left the superstar coach in tears. Performing _It’ll Be Ok_ by Shawn Mendes, Rita acknowledged Theoni’s “incredible presence and angelic tone” but divulged Lachie “has a natural gift where I believe every word he is saying.” Rita declared Lachie victorious.
> 
> Robbie Dolan from NSW won his Battle against South Australian sisters Ella and Sienna, with Miley Cyrus’ _Wrecking Ball_ . Rita praised the professional jockey saying: “You sang your heart out.”
> 
> Canberra teenager Xanthe (pictured) and Queensland’s Liam Keates-Ryley took to the Battle arena with _Don’t Speak_ by No Doubt. Xanthe’s “powerful” stage presence scored a win as she promised Rita: “You will not regret this. Thank you.”
> 
> Team Rita Battle winner Xanthe advanced straight to the Semi-Finals, while Robbie and Lachie sang for their life. In a close contest, Lachie’s raw and vulnerable performance of _I Guess I’m In Love_ by Clinton Kane saw him victorious, as Rita admitted: “You were both spectacular up there, you both deserve to be on that stage.”
> 
> On cementing his spot in the Semi-Final, Lachie revealed: “I never dreamed it was possible” and paid tribute to his mate Robbie, who vowed to keep singing.
> 
> Superstar coach Guy Sebastian also took to **The Voice** stage with a special performance of some of his biggest hits: _Before I Go, Battle Scars_ and _Who’s That Girl._
