The blind auditions are linked and the – sometimes very young – talents are revealed. This premium therefore starts strong with a cover of Demis Roussos by Raynaud, 10 years old, from Reunion. A performance hailed by Nikos Aliagas, friend of the Greek singer who still presents the TF1 show. As often in “The Voice Kids”, music remains a family affair for the young candidates who parade in front of the jurors.
Like Faustyne, who dreams of “creating a group with her sister” and calls her on stage to help her choose her coach. Or Sara, Swiss candidate of Spanish and Paraguayan origin, accompanied by her dad on classical guitar – the performance of this bonus, as the voice of this 12-year-old girl impresses on the song “Malagueña” by Ernesto Lecuona.
Same thing for the twins Messaïne and Mellina who join Kendji’s two-voice team, and Diona on a video call with her dad, a Sri Lankan singer, during her performance. Or Gabriel, a young Alsatian – and the only recruit of the evening of Julien Dore -, who dedicates his piece to his mother.
Louane still so moved
No, definitely, only Nahel, a kind of miniature Aznavour in costume, who came to sing “Les Bourgeois”, by Jacques Brel – the other highlight of the evening – assures him: music is his thing. ; parents have nothing to do with it. If the boy, passionate about French songs, stands out with his passion for the classics, it is quite the opposite for Jade, 8 years old, who performs ” Bim Bam Toi » and amuses the jurors by declaring that « Confessions nocturnes » by Diam’s and Vitaa, is « old song ». And for good reason, in 2006, she was not born…
A very beautiful interpretation of “Hopelessly devoted to you” sung in “Grease” by the late Olivia Newton-John later, the coaches seem to have given each other the word to cry in turn, just like in the first prime of this season. Louane is particularly moved by a cover of “Behind the fog”, her duet with Grand Corps Malade… but does not look back. Only Patrick Fiori block and keep your eyes dry. At the same time, this is its seventh season. For three victories, does he not fail to recall, teasingly.
This bonus is finally a show for Julien Doré, the new juror of the musical TV hook… who can’t find anyone to join his team. But he does not disassemble, prefers to laugh and curse the other coaches: after all, the former winner of the “New Star” has only been passed in front “72 times this evening” in his words. Assessment of this second bonus: only one new voice for Julien Doré. He is not behind with five talents in all in his team, just one less than the six of the other coaches.
