Next up is Viktor Kiraly who lives in Budapest though he was born in NYC. His parents were both professional musicians in Budapest. They moved back to Hungary when his mother was stricken with cancer. She’s healthy now. Viktor says he always admired his dad’s music and said he and his twin were in a band.
He says the problem is he can’t sing in Hungarian and he didn’t grow up speaking the language so the transition was rough on him He got a shot on a talent TV show over there and is now commonly recognized there and has success in Hungary. He says Pharrell is his first choice of judge and says he thinks he could build his self-confidence. He knows it’s a huge risk to do this if he doesn’t get a chair to turn but says he has to.
Viktor does Marvin Gaye’s What’s Going On. He gets a turn from Adam almost right away. Gwen, Pharrell and Blake turn towards the end and then Adam is on his feet applauding. Blake is shocked and says – that guy is white. Gwen runs down to the stage and she says she’s the only girl so she has double powers. Adam says not to be seduced by her. Pharrell asks why he did the Donny Hathaway version and Viktor say she has a good ear. Adam says he tried to keep a poker face so they wouldn’t turn.
Adam says he can go the distance and says he’s won before and doesn’t brag as much as Blake. Then Blake says he’s won twice as much. Adam says the other three are just problems when they turned and tells Viktor he could win this. Blake asks if he performs a lot and Viktor says he has a few singles on the radio there. Blake says he thinks he’ll be in the finals and calls him a phenomenal singer. Pharrell says he’s different and that’s what matters most. Gwen says his voice is rich.
She asks what music he wants to make and Blake says country. Viktor says he likes country but would like to do soul with a touch of pop. Blake tells him to pick one of them. Viktor says they are all great choices but then chooses Adam even though he came with Pharrell in mind. Blake says Adam is up to his old tricks and hates that he didn’t have a shot at Viktor. Blake jokes and says his hair is too high anyway. Viktor says Adam was so psyched to work with him so he decided not to go with Pharrell.
