The Voice contestant divides with Oasis cover: 'Kind of awful'
Hannah Stow's version of Wonderwall didn't win over everyone.
The Voice fans are divided after one contestant's take on Oasis' hit song 'Wonderwall', with Hannah Stow's unique voice winning over some people, but losing others. Hannah admitted herself in her audition that her vocal style is very unique and people either like how she sounds or hate it.
"My sound is definitely different, I think it's an acquired taste," she said. "It's such a well-known song, the flair I've put on it is either going to be perceived really well or people aren't going to like it."
Unfortunately, Hannah didn't turn any chairs, despite some of the coaches saying they liked her performance, with Kate calling it "haunting and interesting" but saying the pitch was sometimes on shaky ground, while Guy called it "something special".
The Voice fans divided over Hannah Stow's audition: 'Completely wrong call'
On Instagram, Hannah called the whole experience 'crazy' saying she was nervous but that it was cool to make it down to 60 applicants from 6000.
"I didn’t end up getting through but it was definitely a crazy experience. I was a nervous lil cherub so I was a bit pitchy but 6000 applicants culled to 60 is quite cool regardless," she said.

Eek. Maybe it's my TV speakers but this is kind of awful. Cursive singing needs to die off. #thevoiceau
