samuel

wilco

I'm 39 years old, I'm currently stationed in Fort Knox, Kentucky, serving our country. Yeah, if I ever auditioned for Stevie Wonder's

voice

lately

, it would be my audition song. I love artists who know that yes, while you are a singer, you are also a singer. a messenger, that's why I love that song so much, the message matters too, it's a smart song to choose as a singer because it allows you to show these different qualities of your

voice

, which tells me that you're probably very good with song selection , which means that you will do very well in this environment thank you, I love your voice and honestly, I sang the whole song with you here like it was in my improvisation.

I love that song. I felt a connection from the beginning and I had to do it. turn around and I had to have you on my team thank you that performance was amazing and thank you for your service thank you we need a voice like that in this competition and you brought it today you did it with such ease uh somehow it did I'm a little jealous and upset because I can't do that, yeah, that's good, I see, I would die to hear you sing that song because it's a great song, great song, but I also want to hear you sing some of John's songs, yeah, I can do that. some Johnson, oh man, and that's the kind of stuff as your coach that I'll be really excited to work with you on.

It is a selection of songs. In fact, I already have a playlist that I'm using as a way to think about artists. my team and how to change things so that everyone watching at home and in this room and every week when you come and sing for us, say wow like we did today because you blew me away, I think we could do amazing. things together and I really believe in you and I feel like you have a lot of heart I hope and pray that you choose me because I think we make a great team thank you, thank you Samuel what kind of concert do you do? do you sing somewhere? another

military

organization well the only thing I really sing in the

military

is we like the cadences like if you ever see them on TV and they're marching yeah you're going to do a fantastic job with the voice so welcome to the program, thank you. thank you, my brother was at Fort Knox and one of my favorite memories is that after they had this ceremony, my brother was in trouble for something, as always, and I remember the drill sergeant asked my brother if he had brain damage and was one of my favorites yelling at him, man, I thought you did great, you're more than ready for this moment, it's a great journey and for some reason it led you to this moment, we're proud to have you on the show trying to come up with something to help sell Nick here, but the last time you did it didn't help, yeah, the last time I did it it backfired, so I think please don't do it.

I'll stay out of it. Thank you so much. I apreciate it. You have a decision. make my friend who do you choose as your coach well I've seen the show this is my wife's favorite show and she's the one who got me into this whole thing so thank you I loved watching you Kelly and I really love it everything you do with your artist, but my kids love you, Nick, yes sir, so I'll go with your teammates.
