Check out this powerful audition. Watch this stunning 'Midnight Train to Georgia' performance on The Voice.
    
Tia DuRant starts out on The Voice interviewing backstage. She is fumbling over her words and laughing it off. Tia has a fun personality and shares that she is 32-years-old and from Sumter, South Carolina. 

They show a clip of her in her small town talking about her big dreams. Tia shares her story of going into a banking career after graduating from high school. She says that she woke up every day wanting to sing and realized that her desire was to help people through music. She made the bold move to quit her job to pursue her singing career. She is thrilled about the opportunity and walks onto the stage.

As Tia starts singing, she hits low notes that wow the judges. Her voice is spectacular, and the song builds, and you get antsy to see if the judges will turn their chairs. She has such grit and zeal. 

Finally, as she belts a high note, two of the judges hit their red buttons at the same time. She is relieved and thrilled. When she says, “whoo hoo,” she makes a train conductor gesture, and Kelly Clarkson loves it. Tia puts on quite the audition and wows everyone listening. 

The audience cheers, and the judges are excited about her. The judges desire for her to be on their teams. In the end, she goes with the wonderful team, Kelly, which makes perfect sense for these two powerhouse vocalists to pair up and work together.

Midnight Train to Georgia is a phenomenal song. 

Some Lyrics to the Song, Midnight Train to Georgia

The Chorus Sings:

He's leavin' 
On that midnight train to Georgia
Said he's goin' back 
to a simpler place and time

Sometimes, in our own lives, it is beneficial to slow down and simplify. As we hear this southern girl's voice, this song will remind us of the beauty in seemingly small places. 

“Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much.” Luke 16:10
