When you think about it, he's done that his whole career. I remember when he and Culture Club hit the states. We were like WTF? That voice coming out of that face etc LOL it was mind blowing :)
Listening to them talking about rock and opera, difficult going together and worried they won’t mix .. and I’m sitting here like ... I guess that means they haven’t heard of Nightwish
That duel has been a favorite of mine since I seen it the first time. The way that they both stayed true to their musical calling was absolutely breathtaking!
AND they seemed to be encouraging the other to do well! When have you ever seen that done in a competition on TV? Classy women! Who don't play zero-sum games! Beautiful to see! Role models for us all!!! Truely!!!
I loved Virginia’s rendition of tight rope! But that Call me battle was hands down the best battle on the show to date. The opera singer did phenomenal. They both have amazing voices!
The pairing of opera & rock was genius. Their voices meshed so beautifully & each was a powerhouse vocalist in their own right!The performance was off the chain; had me vibing with each note, like I was on stage. Wonderful job!
I love everything about the way they performed Call Me! George is a fucking brilliant, amazing, visionary coach and artist. He's literally been blowing my mind since 1983.
Rather--- light vs heavy? So many contrasts could be thought of with the contrast. The white, diaphanous, billowing outfit of an angelic voice in opera vs the daregare black, leather of high voltage, full throated, rock! Classic, traditional costuming, on the mark! Can you imagine if it was reversed? Don't think it would have worked visually, it might have totally messed it up. (Or would it have added some edge?)
Virginia, please don't feel disheartened. You are a truly dynamic and rocksy singer. It takes a lot of confidence, and assurance in yourself to be on a show like this. You nailed it from your first note. This is not an ending, but a brand new beginning.
I agree. It was the Perfect Blend of Two genres. Done by Two Artists; accomplished Masters, in their own style ... Truly Unfair, to each of these Brilliant Talents.
I love how they both have total respect for what that other does. Sorry I forgot the beautiful opera singers name. This duet was 1 of my favorites from anyplace on the planet.
That battle was, hands down, the BEST I’ve ever seen! They both should’ve been kept on. Both of them are SUPER STARS! IMO, Virginia totally rocked that last song, too. They are always telling people to get out of their comfort zone... and I thought she was outstanding!🙌🏻❣️❤️❣️🙌🏻
@@ivyvines6708 - What is the name of this George(?), I want to read more about him. And the name of the opera singer (?), I wonder how her fate turned out, because they slept with her and she went on.
Her bluezzz was perfect! Blues is part of the back bone of rock n roll !! James Brown dabbled in both as well as gospel! She is a Queen 👑 I’d love to see her give it a go in the USA
That was THE MOST respectful, encouraging, good-hearted, cheering for the otherside competition I've had an honest pleasure to watch, and listen to! Kudos to both of these very classy ladies: you are now the gold standard! You have set the bar very, very, very high!!! Congrats to you both!!! Absolutely beautiful to watch and hear! It helps restore one's faith with many aspects in today's less than harmonious world! THANK-YOU!!! BIG, BIG HUGS TO YOU BOTH!!!!!
I agree well expressed! I just wish we had more from both of them together it was magical and we need something SUPERNATURAL to bring back great music and create a new genre ROCKERA!
Thank you for posting this video! She was one of my favourites contestants in the 9th Season of The Voice Australia. I didn't watch her backstory because I'm not Australian and this video made me know better Virginia, the Black Rock Star in that sky full of stars that was the last Season of The Voice Australia. Once more, thank you❣🖤
IM A 51 YR OLD WOMAN. YOU CAN SING AND THE FEMALES NEED A NEW ROCK SINGER AND YOU CAN ALSO SING SOFT ROCK. I LOVED YOUR PERFORMANCE. YOU NEED TO BE SIGNED AND IN THE STUDIO.
When she sang Heart's Barracuda I found myself comparing her to Anne Wilson instead judging her on her talent. That's not fair. To me, Anne Wilson is the ultimate female rocker. I listen again and I loved her performance. She was amazing.
Yes Virginia there is a Santa Claus or Boy George. Your voice is amazing .I would pay to see you. Your voice is very close to the original singer with your own twist. You remind me of Pat benetar.

What's your favorite performance by Virginia? ✌️
Barracuda or tightrope no doubt!
@The Voice Global All of them🥴😍
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAlllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIl❤✨
All of em she's has a phenomenal voice 💙
Call Me with the amazing Clarissa Spata! 🤩
"Call Me." - That is one of the best battles I've EVER seen!!
Most definitely !!!
It was absolutely a brilliant idea.
The coolest thing I’ve ever witnessed on TH-cam
Such a shame it was a knockout battle, those two could do more together
@cornelius washington both did stay delta took the opera singer
Omg boy George is so good at putting together different voices and making it so good and also encouraging people to go out of their comfort style
Totaly agree 👍🏻
Boy George does it right. He does it by the name of the game. And he brings out talent in people that they didn't even know that they had. ;-) ;-) ;-)
Brilliance in action.
I Love Boy George 💕
When you think about it, he's done that his whole career. I remember when he and Culture Club hit the states. We were like WTF? That voice coming out of that face etc LOL it was mind blowing :)
What a concept! Devil/ Angel!(?) George really masters the theatrical, of course... and to combine these two in that way was truly inspired!!!❤️🤗
That version of "Call Me" deserves to be on an album. That was AWESOME!
The rock and opera was 🔥! Perfect combo!!
Duh
They should make that a thing
Watch cristina ramos same song
I was absolutely blown away. Definitely thought to myself that theu should do something with that
@@racheltatu indeed rachel tatu , thats awesome
Listening to them talking about rock and opera, difficult going together and worried they won’t mix .. and I’m sitting here like ... I guess that means they haven’t heard of Nightwish
Hahahahha yes
Damn right they haven't
Exactly!
Nightwish ROCKS!!!!!!!!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
I was like for real? They haven’t heard the genre called symphonic rock? My absolute fave
That duel has been a favorite of mine since I seen it the first time. The way that they both stayed true to their musical calling was absolutely breathtaking!
AND they seemed to be encouraging the other to do well! When have you ever seen that done in a competition on TV?
Classy women! Who don't play zero-sum games! Beautiful to see! Role models for us all!!! Truely!!!
I loved Virginia’s rendition of tight rope! But that Call me battle was hands down the best battle on the show to date. The opera singer did phenomenal. They both have amazing voices!
they should have been put together as a duet forever
The pairing of opera & rock was genius. Their voices meshed so beautifully & each was a powerhouse vocalist in their own right!The performance was off the chain; had me vibing with each note, like I was on stage. Wonderful job!
George was a master at putting this together. Love him!
What is the name of the opera singer (?), I want to see, because she was saved and she went on.
Besides the performance of the two artists, witch was perfect, this shows how Boy George is still a musical genius
I can't even tell you how many times I've watched the "Call Me" performance (jaw drop 🤯 🖤🤍)
If you loved this then you may try out Symphonic Metal Nightwish(Floor Jansen & Tarja Turunen)
you won't regret
That is the ultimate and rock show both of those women I would pay $2,000 to sit in the nosebleed seat to listen to them wow
I love everything about the way they performed Call Me! George is a fucking brilliant, amazing, visionary coach and artist. He's literally been blowing my mind since 1983.
George looked justifiably smug! Love him to bits!
A battle of Opera and Rock wowww...the best!!!
Dressing them in white and black was perfect. Angel against devil.
Rather--- light vs heavy?

I wish we had a chance to hear original music from Virginia…I think it could have been a whole different thing.
"Call me" battle no one girl should be eliminated expecially the opera singer with a Voice from heaven.
I agree. It was the Perfect Blend of Two genres. Done by Two Artists; accomplished Masters, in their own style ... Truly Unfair, to each of these Brilliant Talents.
They should be a team
@@sassyqueen9739 After that collaboration; It's an obvious Yes ! Hell ! They should be on Tour !
The battle when you ladies sang Call Me was one of the most amazing things I have ever heard thank you thank you thank both and bless on your journey
Boy George is a real genius coach!
They should have become a permanent duet
I love how they both have total respect for what that other does. Sorry I forgot the beautiful opera singers name. This duet was 1 of my favorites from anyplace on the planet.
“Call Me” was fantastic!!! I would pay to see them both together in concert. It would be Nightwish awesomeness!!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Wow that oprah sounds good rocking out with her voice. That could be another song on the RADIO
The battle was incredible
I would pay to see a full show like this battle
It soooo wasss
That battle was, hands down, the BEST I’ve ever seen! They both should’ve been kept on. Both of them are SUPER STARS! IMO, Virginia totally rocked that last song, too. They are always telling people to get out of their comfort zone... and I thought she was outstanding!🙌🏻❣️❤️❣️🙌🏻
Love Boy George!!!!!
Omg wow shes amazing
She's awesome.
THIS GIRL CAN SING. WOW. AWESOME VOCALS. WE NEED ANOTHER FEMALE ROCKER.
Wow..It's like The Fifth Element met the Rock Trolls at the beginning and it's brilliant. 👏
Wow, I was not expecting that Boy George. Virginia you are a winner in my eyes, you are an incredible performer. You rock on!!! 🎶♥️ 🎸
If I could take all the rockers from around the world, Virginia would be included in a list of stars to do a huge concert of The Voice rockers
George @ 7:19 is brilliant
Opera and Rock. Thats awesome! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Wow! I amso impressed with Boy George putting the two styles together in "Call Me."
He just copied a performance of a Spanish singer in America's Got Talent: th-cam.com/video/o5X6PIyNutU/w-d-xo.html
George is really great at coaching!! Trully talented!!
Its like hes a musician or something. Trully?
All of Georges musical experience has been taken the extra mile with so many people. ;-) ;-) ;-)
Brutally honest and direct just because someone can do something doesn’t mean they can teach it. Or coach others. George can.
@@ivyvines6708 - What is the name of this George(?), I want to read more about him.
And the name of the opera singer (?), I wonder how her fate turned out, because they slept with her and she went on.
She's a gem 😍
The Voiy Australia has so much to offer! They had many great artist who not go on the Finals . And all are deserving.
Voiy?
Wowwwwww powerful mama.... You are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 i love you mama...... So happy
George is criminally underrated as a coach. He brings out sides in his artists I would never imagine
He just copied a performance of a Spanish singer in America's Got Talent: th-cam.com/video/o5X6PIyNutU/w-d-xo.html
WOOOOWWW THAT battle!!!
I loved George's sound of pure joy when he turned around. :D
All I can say about the Call Me battle is, wow!
They should go on the road together
@@jules3048 For sure, those momets, when they were singing together... that was something... :-)
Opera and rocker smashed it they are awesome together.....love to hear more of that combo....was EPIC
I have always loved Boy George and this was a perfect song for their voices an Amazing performance...Thank You George for picking that classic💙
He just copied a performance of a Spanish singer in America's Got Talent: th-cam.com/video/o5X6PIyNutU/w-d-xo.html
Brilliantly arranged and performed!
Boy George is a genius!
Opera and rock/metal are always a good match. You just have to listen bands like Nightwish, Epica ... to be convinced
Wow, Call me was absolutely BRILLIANT! Both genres complimented each other and it sounded amazing!
Rock chick and opera diva - if you two ever do a record together, please let me know, I'm BUYING!!!
Wow WOW WOW!!
Well done to Boy George!!
What a feast of musical artistry.

She killed Janae's "Tightrope", come on, Guy and George! It was great! She's not just a hard rocker; her voice is totally versatile. Give her that!
The rock n' roll/opera duet was incredible!!!!!!!!
She’s cool! Love her style and damn CAN she sing...love her rough belting tone. You rock girl!
that was the most GENIUS battle i've ever seen
I Love Boy George he never ages & I Love ❤️ the way he dresses, those hats are on point!!!!!
Her bluezzz was perfect! Blues is part of the back bone of rock n roll !! James Brown dabbled in both as well as gospel! She is a Queen 👑 I’d love to see her give it a go in the USA
This was sooo fucking awesome. Loved the opera/rock combo
Bravo👏👏👏 Boy George.... You rock and bring out the best in once singer!!! Good job👍
Regardless of how famous she gets (local band or worldwide sensation) Virginia Lilly is second to none.
OMG that was an insane version of Blondie's Call Me, I was mesmerized the entire performance :)
That was THE MOST respectful, encouraging, good-hearted, cheering for the otherside competition I've had an honest pleasure to watch, and listen to!
Kudos to both of these very classy ladies: you are now the gold standard! You have set the bar very, very, very high!!!
Congrats to you both!!! Absolutely beautiful to watch and hear! It helps restore one's faith with many aspects in today's less than harmonious world!
THANK-YOU!!! BIG, BIG HUGS TO YOU BOTH!!!!!
Oh man, do I love Virginia’s voice!! Geeeeez! I love raspy rocker voices because the pretty much can sing any genre and nail it!
Dam I felt like I was at a concert !!!! Yeah great job girls wow
Boy George looks way better now than he did in the eighties he's shockingly wonderful.
she owns a stage...
It's like an angel and the devil doing battles! Phenomenal!!!
"Call Me" battle song should be a record
The duet is just fantastic also its like roleplay, both in vocals and outfits one beeing an angelic one and the other hellish wonder. Stunning!
I agree well expressed!
I just wish we had more from both of them together it was magical and we need something SUPERNATURAL to bring back great music and create a new genre ROCKERA!
Those ladies should do an album together, that was incredible
Thank you for posting this video!
She was one of my favourites contestants in the 9th Season of The Voice Australia. I didn't watch her backstory because I'm not Australian and this video made me know better Virginia, the Black Rock Star in that sky full of stars that was the last Season of The Voice Australia.
Once more, thank you❣🖤
She such a genuine person, she makes me want to be her best friend
9:25 = you know she was only teasing us with the vocals and lets out a real belted rock note 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
I really enjoyed this ( 'cept the semi-cliffhanger :) Boy George is a much better coach than I had for some reason imagined.
never have chills while listening to a rock/opera this was awsomeeeeeeee!!!!
I got sister vibes from the Call Me duet!!!! One sister is the Queen of Darkness and the other sister is the Queen of light!!!!!!!!
They need to record this version....i love it...
George is an amazing coach
The opera singer has a lovely voice! A great combination!!!👍🔥
IM A 51 YR OLD WOMAN. YOU CAN SING AND THE FEMALES NEED A NEW ROCK SINGER AND YOU CAN ALSO SING SOFT ROCK. I LOVED YOUR PERFORMANCE. YOU NEED TO BE SIGNED AND IN THE STUDIO.
I have been a boy George fan from day one he is a true talent and the most humble person ever
Omg, they rocked the Call Me song!!! That absolutely worked and I'm all for it!!!!! Wow!!! ❤️❤️
110% sold on Virginia's power and range as probably one of the best artists Australia has. Love her 🤘❤️🎶🎶
🤘🤩🤘
Ur combination is of a super duo!!!😀
Wow, what an honor!!!!
@@ZevMeth_originaljewishmusic Meth Rocks 🤘🥺🤘
@@mzjonez8768 Lol, yeah!
Woooooooooow 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🎶💪🏾💪🏾 I freakin loved this combo! I’ve never heard anything like it before!!!!!!!!! The opera and rock combo, that is!
ThatBattle performance was so cool! I actually got goosebumps!
These two women are both equally as good. It's like comparing apples and oranges! I love them both!!!!
When she sang Heart's Barracuda I found myself comparing her to Anne Wilson instead judging her on her talent. That's not fair. To me, Anne Wilson is the ultimate female rocker. I listen again and I loved her performance. She was amazing.
I did the exact same thing. Its not often we hear other female artists attack a Heart song with their own style.
I feel the same
Virginia has amazing stage presence!! Voice is amazing!! Love her!!!
I just love George more these days than ever before, especially after I saw his interview with Piers!!❤️🇨🇦
George?
@@MrWmJosephSmithIII
Boy George, the coach.
Perfect!!! 🎸🎻❤👏👏👏👏
Virginia is a power house ! Your super star singer
man call me was just shivers up my spine it was like heaven and hell colliding
Yes Virginia there is a Santa Claus or Boy George. Your voice is amazing .I would pay to see you. Your voice is very close to the original singer with your own twist. You remind me of Pat benetar.
Her blind audition was kick ass awesome!! But Call me was genius! Boy George is the best. I’ll love him til forever ❤️🤗
That battle was "off the chain" AWESOME!!!!!!1 They made my fav list.
She came back at her right time! She deserved the chair turns!
George knows what he do: Symphonic Metal!! 🤗🖤
Opera and rock blend so well...❣
