[@bestofthevoice]

What did you think of Billy's original song? ✌

[@TramiNguyen-oi3kp]

Awesome video!

[@Chromeman]

Great song and a great voice! Among the auditions I have seen so far, he is my personal favorite and with Ace as the runner-up.

[@jimmalis5386]

Greater than his singing was coaches improvisations especially it worked for Danny and Tom

[@cdebersohn3600]

Just beautiful and heartfelt

[@lynneedwards9704]

I loved his song and his voice. Amazing.😊

[@CollinsCole-r1x]

"Lately I feel like a stranger living in my own skin" That's deep😥😥

[@Harpy-Mark-Tomlinson]

Yeah, skin deep.

[@Sydthesloth45]

I know right

[@Chromeman]

Yes, great lyrics! I swear I wasn't always like this I could handle anything But lately, I feel like a stranger Living in my own skin And the older that I'm getting The less I'm letting out I can feel my heart screaming But I never make a sound And I don't know how much it is I can take If only I could say what I'm thinking Instead, I'm just sinking in silence again And I'm getting tired of smiling and laughing With nobody asking how I really am Oh, I could use a friend It took a lot for me to call you But now I got you on the phone I don't wanna cut the small talk Just to say I feel alone 'Cause I don't wanna be a burden Make it all about me Try to keep it on the surface So you don't see underneath And I don't know how much it is I can take If only I could say what I'm thinking Instead, I'm just sinking in silence again And I'm getting tired of smiling and laughing With nobody asking how I really am Oh, I could use a friend Much more than I'd admit Don't wanna stay the obvious But I'll be losing it 'Cause even though I'm scared I wanna let you in But every time I try, I swear, the air is turning thin But I wanna let you in If only I could say what I'm thinking Instead, I'm just sinking in silence again And I'm getting tired of smiling and laughing With nobody asking how I really am Oh, I could use a friend Whoa-oh-whoa Oh-oh-whoa-oh-oh-whoa Oh, I could use a friend Whoa-oh-whoa Oh-oh-whoa-oh-oh-whoa Oh, I could use a friend

[@amberyooper]

That was crazy and awesome!

[@MrsApplegateart]

I watched the shortened clip of his performance and thought this was an amazing song… and now to see the backstory… he’s awesome and THAT SONG should be put out! I could use a friend? I could… I’d put it on Spotify.

[@terrylewis8802]

Dam, that was great!!!!

[@TheCanadianGamingPenguin]

Loved your performance, and I love your song! :D Loved that the coaches were all singing to compete for you to choose them. lol

[@cpierson31]

[@LuAnnKaholokula]

Love it

[@phillipjones611]

Emma's right, what was going on, that was nuts.

[@BlueZoo0510]

im listening to 80s songs and Alternative, Gothic !! and Electronic Music like New Order,, Human League a.s.o. So This song ist way out of my style, but I really had tears in my eyes on VOICE, especially when the mother cried. And if that touched me, what must it be like for people who normally listen to such music?

[@jimmalis5386]

More than his singing was coaches improvisations

[@jmfineart2263]

Si tu n'es pas capable d'écrire l'anglais garde tes réflexions pour un site français là où quelqu'un pourrait comprendre ta langue française à la con. Merci.

[@jimmalis5386]

​@@Harpy-Mark-Tomlinsonwhy so rude? Are you English speaking in Quebec?

[@Harpy-Mark-Tomlinson]

@@jimmalis5386 I'm English and French speaking. It doesn't matter where I am. I just enjoy being rude to people.

[@BillArmstrong-km3oc]

He should have picked Lee Ann or Tom. 3 words…smoke and mirrors.

[@vincentcurtis627]

Totally stunning. Beautiful lyrics beautiful voice. Well done. You have some Friends now. The judges over reaction for their own hype was crass in my opinion. They should have left the performance when he ended it. A bit disrespectful if I am honest . At least Tom remained dignified. Good look for the rest of the show.

[@greeneagle1919]

I didn't see any disrespect 🤷‍♂️ they were showing how much they liked him by going all out to try and convince him to join them. He loved it.

[@starlaglenn1029]

All coaches have the opportunity to sell themselves as coaches. I think Danny and Tom did a great job of that. Did he pick THE best coach....well we will see. But he did not have to be swayed by the song. Obviously Danny and Tom had rehearsed this song for when they really wanted someone. It was still his choice!! I see NO disrespect here!

[@olavwilhelm6843]

wrong choice ....he'll be dropped again ;-(

[@lilg2300]

He can be safed from other coaches, no?

[@tomhosack4475]

i really could use a friend too
