i'd like to thank you all for your kind comments, i appreciate this so so much. i can't explain how i'm feeling right now. thank you all. seriously
Keep it up man!! Brilliant voice...
dude that was awesome.. your stage presence didn't need to be announced, but people watching felt that.. Just dont let em pick songs that dont fit your voice and range all in the name of taking risks
absolutely breath taking, best voice theyve had on the show x
You left me speechless! Definitely one of the best performances ever :-) I can't stop listening to your voice!! Wish you all the best..
OMG PLEASE DO A FULL COVER YOUR VOICE IS AMAZING
Still the best audition I’ve ever seen!
Agree
Yup
Still don't know how he didn't win
the absolute smoothest audition
I agree
2024, still shocked beyond belief only Ricky turned round?!?? This voice is INSANE
Why has this guy been forgotten? Outstanding talent
MUSIC industry sir. They care about money not about talent
This audition has lived in my head rent free every since I heard it years ago 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you
It baffles me that all 4 judges didn't turn for this! This guys got soul for sure.
Ricky turned. But yea, i dont get how the remaining 3 didnt turn.
Tom said he was going to but didnt realise it was the end of the song.
Tom Jones wanted to, but time was up before he realised it was up. You could see his look of surprise and 'doh!' when it ended.
They all looked anoyed tbh. Ricky looked like he'd won the lottery. Considering that girl got all 4 turning its pretty shocking.
i completely agree, but i think its more the fact that they were so caught up in it that they simply forgot to press. i know i would. hes so relaxing and calming. im surprised they didnt go in a trance :)
One of the strongest auditions I've seen. He has the most beautiful voice and control not to mention he's soo handsome and humble. Emmanuel you can sing for me anytime.
I couldn't agree more
listen to it again
I can't stop watching this. It's a hypnotic and mesmerising performance. Beautifully controlled. I want to listen to the full length version. I would buy this for sure.
i can't stop watching it too, its really heavenly and romantic, xxx ahhhh, I so agree with you
Me2... I can see this guy making an album... his voice is like Ed Sheeran's... mesmerizing... :)
Couldn't agree anymore
you're so funny but it's real! :D
Right
I still come back this video every now and again, I just love it so much ❤
Oh my! To create such an electric atmosphere in such a short space of time is quite astonishing. Emmanuel has a unique voice, with fantastic range and a wonderful presence from the whispered lower sections to the effortless falsetto, which was (unlike some others in this show) absolutely controlled and pitch perfect. It takes courage and confidence to leave such spaces in the music, to understand that it isn't all about bluster and panache. The message can be delivered with a breath, and that's what Emmanuel did. Beautiful and exquisitely delivered. Song choice will be crucial going forward, because whilst he has range he might be swamped in the battles. Interesting times ahead!
I just watched the show but i came here just to read your comments haha.
I know I love reading your detailed analysis on every performance. :) Are you a music coach?
At times i forgot to watched the show. I'm waiting to the detailed comments haha. That was too professional i guess.
Tbh every vid i watch i scroll down straight down to your comments lol
He has a frank ocean type of vibe to him, it really was a great performance
I still watch this to this day, he brings tears to my eyes 🥺 his voice is something I’ve never heard. He deserved more turns 💔
Thank you Natalie
My favourite so far, fantastic, unique voice. I'm really surprised only Ricky turned around, with the right coaching and song choices he could win this show imo.
Shivers all over my body.
Nothing this good so far in 2016.
I agree. Such a shame too. I feel like this season isn't going to be great.
The voice 2016 is boring so far
+periurban his voice is incredible, I still cant believe only one person turned. P.s im loving your comments on the voice videos! Totally agreeing :)
Love this so much
+periurban Yes! One of the best auditions of all time.
Damn this song made me believe in love again
it is enchanting, keeping you listen it again and again.
Thank you Veryzet :D
Still find myself back here after all this time. Simply beautiful
The tribal African tones in his voice make this version otherworldly - one of the best things I ever see on live tv
+sugarsaint so true dude.. i even cant say anithing
What tribal African tones...?
sugarsaint what tribal tones lmao? Yo stfu
My favourite contestant right now. Want him to win! :)
MINE TOO, Lets all vote for him, goosebumps aint the word almost heavenly!!!x it had me glued, and i shedded tears on the night, it was sooo romantic, and for me the best voice ive heard in my life....in my life.
I think I can't vote 'cause I'm from Poland though ;) But would vote being in the UK
Still my favourite audition
I would just love to hear this song in its entirety in his version. This is in no doubt a "quiet storm". Beautifully sung.
Will I ever get over this Audition?
I don't think you will, I haven't. ʘ‿ʘ
I love the contrast of his Voice when he hits the lower and higher notes and he seems a very humble person. If Im honest dont know why only got one chair
Would like to see him singing a Frank Ocean song
Yeah surprised that the other chairs didnt turn ...the dudes voice is incredible
Mic A Ugh him singing 'Swim good' by Frank Ocean would be a dream, would be great!
zanjabeel you just read my mind
Mic A He must of read your comment because he has now, and it's unbelievable.
Still don't understand how only one judge turned around 🤔🤔
It was an awkward/unexpected ending, tom jones looked like he really wanted to turn and was surprised/upset when it ended before he turned.
The voice of an angel.
While Emmanuel's recorded version of Sweetest Taboo sounds good, it doesn't come close to the magic that was captured on the voice blind audition. The chorus has an "other worldy quality that touched me on such a deep level, it brought tears to my eyes, and I'm a grown man! Not to mention the song was too short. I I kept replaying it over and over again especially to see how Rita, at 1:12, is so moved by what she heard, she can hardly contain herself. lol.
Arhhh man, you have me speechless, thank you so much I truly mean it. Thank you
Emmanuel Nwamadi as Flykiller said, it would be beautiful if you could recreate the voice audition dreamlike "vibe" - it's the slower, more "rubato" version with additional instrumental backing that brings the extra magic I really liked. Also, notice the distance and rawness in your voice, when you say "tell you NOW"... astonishing. I missed this in the studio recording. Still, congratulations on a fantastic, unique cover.
Omg I was exactly like you. I didn't know what to do when I first heard it except play it again and again. The instrumental is so underrated as well as his guitarring. Then that voice oh dear me I literally just goosebumped all over!
my favourite voice audition and artist of all time it's like his voice fills the entire room and to feel that through a t.v never mind in the building is incredible
I appreciate this Jack. Thank you
Thing is, he's better than 95% of artists out there maybs even 100% Hope he's successful in the future
I don't even know what to think about this, I'm stunned. thank you so so much
+Emmanuel Nwamadi anytime man, good luck! big fan
+Hell Naww That's true, he is up there with the golden artists :)
+Nicole Bonnett completely agree :) he's 100% unique!
+Hell Naww thank you :D
Emmanuel's voice feels like hot summer rain it's so refreshing that I could listen to him all day long .... raspy tones and stunning vocal range takes me far far away .... I hope that he gets all the success he deserves and we get to hear more ❤
This song isn’t long enough!!!
Your voice makes me feel in a spiritual trance. I'm breathless. Don't let them change anything about you, keep yourself true to your soul Emmanuel. I pray your dreams come true.
i know it was like heaven, wasn't it, spiritual and just...!, im still blown away
the way you expressed yourself is so beautiful, just simply beautiful
thnx
He visited my school today and sung for us I’m so grateful :)
I love how he made this Sade song his own I love it
What in the name of Amazing talent this is!! I got hypnotized for a sec there.
still play this audition over and over....love it
arhhh I'm happy. thank you!
+Emmanuel Nwamadi You're so good!
I still get shivers even now!!!
Hi Ci Blue,
I’m not sure if you were notified but my new EP “Worlds Apart” is available to stream. It would mean a lot to me if you listen and let me know what you think in the comments. If you would like, reposting it would truly help me also. Thank you ever so much for your time and continued support.
Emmanuel

@@EmmanuelNwamadi thanks man,I've downloaded all your songs on spotify, you touring at all?
He is easily the best so far noo???? This was amazeballs!!!!
4 years later I’m here listening to this song over and over again
I never related so hard. His Voice is just wow.
I'm just now seeing this damn that was smooth as f***... Only one person turned around shaking my head
This guy helped me out when I was a fresher at uni. Top dog
i'm glad i was able to help :D
The most incredible performance ever. Still amazing 7 years on.
Just like everyone else does, I like to think I get it right when someone captures my heart. I must have been wrong on this occasion but I just can’t see how. This version of the sweetest taboos is soulful, haunting and beautiful all in one. IMO the music industry missed a gem here.
Actually love his voice to bits
Emmanuel Nwamadi you are freaking amazing, your voice takes me to that place seriously, trust me all 4 judges would have turned around but they didn't realise the song was at its end they were too mesmerised. i listed to you like ten times over yesterday and as if i couldn't get enough i am youtube wanting to hear you more. you are amazing. i am definitely team Emmanuel and looking forward to seeing you more and more. your audition is by far the best audition i have ever seen on any talent show.
i know it was cut short we was all in the moment, It's the best audition I've heard in my life, I'm still blown away xxx
Hi Lady Ro. I'd like to thank you. Seriously, I'm very happy that I have Ricky as a mentor as I feel he's just right for me. Thank you so so much. This means so much to me
Emmanuel Nwamadi great performance. You are truly talented.
He's got my heart, the force is strong in this one
I just CANNOT stop playing this. Emmanuel if you don't win, i will be utterly shocked!! You've been the only one to stand out by miles in the blind auditions so far. How on earth did esmee get 4 turns, and you never. I kno the judges were just wrapped up listening to your mesmorising voice but they surely most have knew you've "GOT IT" once you hit the falsetto. Bizarre! Fantabulous dude. I'm routing for u all the way xxx
Yup I sure hope that's the reason coz if not those judges need their ears examined. They tend to save the best audition til last, it should have been Emmanuel by MILES. I hope the Ella Henderson X factor shock doesn't happen here, because while she's good I think Emmanuel is better, it would be an absolute travesty for him to go early on
Probably my favourite The Voice audition of all time.
Amazing to see how far you have come! Wish you all the best! This guy is not only an amazing singer but plays guitar hero like a boss
hahahahaha thank you Alex :D
Man that was beautiful the way he sang that song it brought tears of joy to my spirit frfr
I’m still shocked only one judge turned. Still one of the best audition on the voice! This rendition of Sweetest Taboo is beautiful and full of raw emotions.
This artist had me with the first few notes of his guitar, but then came his voice, phrasing, and interpretation of the song. It was simply beautiful.
My favorite audition so far. It's a wonder only one coach turned. I honestly think he deserved more.
This gave me absolute chills!! Well done!
Still my fav 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Effortlessly beautiful x
Best cover of Sweetest Taboo
+Beren Luthien Definitely!
His voice is ... i dont know how to discribe, it's like if he can soft something inside me. He is really great.
*You're overrated*
Still my favourite moment on the Voice 😍 I can watch many episodes worldwide but every time I see a contestant that wows me I come back to this clip ♥️ True talent and proof that talent isn’t always rewarded but can’t be forgotten ♥️
I truly appreciate you Gemma! Please head over to my youtu.be channel, I have quite a lot of new music out.
How the hell did they not turn around the way he played the guitar, the way he sang, his tone, the way he switched up the song! I would of pushed that button for sure!
Gives you the shivers, so powerful
That's freaking awesome the way he sings such high notes and when he talks he sounds like Barry White...
It's not just about the voice. His voice is amazing but the feeling? The feeling is out of this world. One of the best renditions I've ever seen in my life.
Hi Glauber
I’m not sure if you were notified but my new EP “Worlds Apart” is available to stream. It would mean a lot to me if you listen and let me know what you think in the comments. If you would like, share it would truly help me also. Thank you ever so much for your time and continued support.

This performance really makes me cry.his voice I can't explain. But I'm going through something . Nd I listen to this with my eyes closed and tears fall. It's one of those voices that every time that person sings. They sing it from the heart and everybody feels it. Emotionally . I love this.
I’ve been looking for this guy for agesss 😂, love this version
This is the kind of voice and style i dig. thanks for reminding people of how good music used to be and how a great voice can bring it back to life. this reminds me of Seal soehow
One thinks Sade is untouchable, then someone does this. Still one of the best and most powerful versions I've ever heard.
2019 stuck on repeat.
gosh this guys a sensation--with a pure sound--pure perfection--he could win as a real winner
Brian Coleman perhaps untouchable I really hope so.
Those high notes were so nice and dense, this was a great audition. :)
With that gifted voice chairs should have turned automatically 🙌🏼 Whew took me some place else 🔥 Great job.
Every time I listen to this song, I start crying..thank you for bringing these emotions..so beautiful !
oh my goodness Vera. it's a pleasure to have brought those emotion to you. i felt the words were just so beautiful that i had to figure out what instrumental worked best, and i guess i found it :D
Emmanuel Nwamadi just wow!!! what an amazing voice you have.
This is so BEAUTIFUL. His arrangement, his voice, his delivery.... WOW. Hauntingly Beautiful... like the original... by the incomparable...SADE
Amazing!!!! Mesmo estando no Brazil, acompanho sempre o The voice Uk....Menino você é magnífico, tonalidade, gestual e o principal fazer o que ama com alma, faz toda diferença..Muita sorte!!!
he should won the whole competition, magic voice
Best person on the voice so far this season, without a doubt
The hook had me like wow... beautiful
I've watched this performance so many times over the last few days (and shared it with so many other people) It's so so beautiful and haunting, and you have such composure. The whole thing totally blew me away and i'm still completely shocked that only one judge turned around! You're in a whole different league to the other contestants!
Emmanuel Nwamadi you're a incredible singer. Hypnotic voice
I have no idea how this wasn't a complete 4 chair turn around. I know Sir Tom said the song ran out before he could hit the button, but man...that voice is amazing!!!!!
I'm pretty sure Sade would love it as much i do... this is epic.
If you can do that with a song, you made it as an artist, in my opinion at least.
thank you
+Emmanuel Nwamadi here's one thing ! It's the only audition I heard and my heart stopped ! The feeling that you give is indescribable and your song choice is perfect !! Congratulations, I hope that you ll do great things in music ! Love from Greece !!
Rawness & Sincerity in a mesmerizing & magical fusion.
Emmanuel you were amazing on the voice tonight that I had to come to TH-cam to see what else you have sung. You have an amazing African voice, you could sing the phone book and I would buy it. You have to get Ricky to let you sing something in Yoruba if you can, you would take this competition to a new level. If not inject some Afro Beat into a Spice Girls cover.........
All the best for the rest of the competition. One last thought you remind my partner and I of Emmanuel Jal, check out his cover of "Many Rivers To Cross", maybe this would be a good song for you.
You are an amazing man and singer, God bless you brother........
You had me at he "could sing the phone book" and you'd buy it. 😂
Stephanie Pham hahaha hopr he sings the phone book... Id definitely buy it too!
before sleep, when I wake up, at work.... I just cant stop playing this song... Lov u Emanuel.
I'm addicted to his Version
Jordan Donley I'm really happy you like it :D
its the sound you bring as a musician that draws me in and i thank you.
Crazy absolutely crazy, the freshest thing I've ever heard. I never watch the show,my missus is obsessed and has it on every week. I was I a different room when I heard this guy singing,without asking my missus I rewind the TV and really listen to this song, I no the original and it had no feeling. This guy is something special and deserves a career now.
This. This is what I was waiting for.
Emmanuel,i have watched this now probably 100 times ....incredible mate ...incredible...if nothing happens from "The Voice" i am sure your career will not be affected,,,you are Phenomenal !!! xxx
Ricky, please let him sing a Frank Ocean song! I'm begging you..
Yeah frank ocean all the way
Most of the blinds I've watched so far (yeah I am trying to catch up lol) I have been moderately impressed with. Here I am leaving a comment because I am stunned by Emmanuel's performance. He's got so much going for him; his voice is beautiful! His pitch...his falsetto...wow. I am in awe.
amazing ....heaven voice
I really do believe this guy should win! He's so talented and the best voice i have heard so far on the show! Hes amazing and so talented!
This is FUCKING INSANE !!
Emmanuel I never watch the voice but I caught this and I can't stop playing this. Your voice is amazing and I do not have the words to describe how that whole performance made me feel like I was seeing and hearing something that was going to totally take the world by storm. Never heard anything like it. Better than seal
He should do a Maxwell's song.
What song by Maxwell do you recommend Tristan :D
Emmanuel Nwamadi This Woman's Work!
I'll get to it :D
Emmanuel Nwamadi 'This Woman's Work' may be a little bit overused in singing competition but I think you'll sound great with it. Try 'Whenever Wherever Whatever' or 'Til The Cops Come Knockin' and use falsetto as your strength. We'd love to hear the soulfulness and tenderness in your voice :D
Tristan Shen spot on. Love to hear his version of it.
And 2017 still hasn't matched this... this guy is gold!
Этот парень будет одним из победителей )
Этот парень уже победитель IMHO
I love this so much... I have watched it so many times. His voice is heaven.
Rita had that jizzy tingle
FINALLY! My fav contestant so far, he deserved 4 chairs by the way.. i think he's unique on the show, because of his GREAT falsetto, passionate performance, good song selection with those beautiful unexpected arrangements, that's make him one of strongest and distinctive contestants of the competition.
How was this 9 yrs ago!
Seriously, Emmanuel has an exceptional range. He has performed at several of my music events and this isn't even a fraction of what he is capable of. I wish him luck!!
