The stage of The Voice Australia became the setting for an unforgettable moment when a young, starstruck contestant got the chance of a lifetime—to sing alongside his idol, Keith Urban. The emotional duet left the audience in awe, the coaches speechless, and the internet buzzing with joy.
The teen singer, Lachlan, had already impressed the judges with his soulful country vocals during his blind audition, earning a four-chair turn. But it was Keith Urban—the global country superstar and his lifelong inspiration—who secured him for his team. From that moment, Lachlan made it clear: singing with Keith was his ultimate dream.
During the Battles round, Lachlan delivered another strong performance, but no one expected what came next. Just as the song ended, Keith Urban casually picked up his guitar, walked onto the stage, and said:
“You know, I’ve been listening to you sing, and I just thought… maybe we should do one together.”
The crowd erupted in cheers as Lachlan’s face lit up with pure disbelief. Keith then launched into his hit “Somebody Like You,” and the young singer—fighting back tears—joined in, matching his idol note for note.
=The performance was electric—Keith’s smooth, seasoned vocals blending perfectly with Lachlan’s raw, emotional tone. At one point, Keith even stepped back to let the teen take the spotlight, grinning proudly as the audience roared.
Coach Rita Ora clutched her chest, while Jessica Mauboy wiped away tears. Guy Sebastian simply shook his head, saying, “That was one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen on this show.”
After the performance, Keith put his arm around Lachlan and said:
“Man, you’ve got something special. To stand up here and sing with you… it’s just magic.”
Lachlan, still shaking, replied:
“This is the best day of my life. I’ve looked up to you since I was a kid… and now I just sang with you. I’ll never forget this.”
The clip instantly went viral, with fans calling it “the most wholesome moment in Voice history.” Many praised Keith for his humility and genuine support for new talent.
As for Lachlan? With Keith as his mentor and this iconic moment under his belt, his journey on The Voice Australia just got even more exciting. One thing’s for sure—this won’t be the last time we hear his name.
