Judge And Contestant Perform Stunning 'Hallelujah' Duet

The Voice Australia contestant Jordan Tavita joins his coach for a stunning performance of ‘Hallelujah’ during the grand finale.

The powerful song was originally released in 1984, but it wasn’t until Jeff Buckley released the song on his 1994 album, ‘Grace’ that the song really started to gain momentum.

Since that time, ‘Hallelujah’ has become a worldwide phenomenon and truly cemented itself in music history. Over the years, many artists have covered the tune and it’s a popular song selection for auditions and showcases. The unique tune sounds like a perfect blend of a rock ballad and a gospel song.

“Well it goes like this
The fourth, the fifth, the minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah”

23-year-old Jordan Tavita made quite the splash with his initial blind audition. After performing an incredible rendition of ‘Man In The Mirror,’ all four judges turned around. 

Jordan eventually chose Guy Sebastian as his coach and he has sailed through the competition with awe-inspiring performances each step of the way. 

Now, it’s time for the grand finale and that means a very special duet with Guy. Together, they are performing ‘Hallelujah’ and it’s the perfect culmination of emotion and talent for Jordan.

During the competition, Jordan spoke out about his struggle with mental illness, specifically in his Polynesian community. “"I've had my own mental health journey, especially with trying to gain confidence, and it's important to bring these issues into the light – especially within our community."

As you watch this performance, it’s clear to see that Jordan has gained so much confidence and he is an incredible role model for others who may be struggling.
