He Was Too Nervous to Sing but Then He Turned All 4 Chairs | The Voice

Jordan Tavita had never once sung publicly outside the walls of his church — he was so chronically nervous that he once turned down the chance to sing his school's national anthem — before he walked onto The Voice Australia Season 11 in 2022 at 23 years old, sang Michael Jackson's "Man in the Mirror" and turned all four chairs within the first 30 seconds, joining Guy Sebastian's team and delivering standout performance after standout performance until the most devastating week of the competition, when his grandmother died just days before his Semi-Final and her funeral fell on the exact same day he had to perform — so he stood on that stage, sang Foreigner's "I Want to Know What Love Is," and dedicated every note to her — before making it all the way to the Grand Finale where he sang "Ghost Town" and duetted with Guy Sebastian on "Hallelujah," finishing as runner-up to Lachie Gill. 🔔 Subscribe for more full journey videos every week: www.youtube.com/@TheVoiceVault?sub_confirmation=1 WHAT IS A JOURNEY VIDEO?
