THE Voice has lifted on the iTunes charts, with the latest round of blind audition songs making their mark on the top 50 downloads.

Leading the charge from Monday night's episode was Geelong songbird Imogen Brough, whose rendition of Florence & The Machine's Never Let Me Go reached no.12 yesterday, and returned the UK group's original to the Apple hit list's top 20, almost a year after it first launched.

Team Ricky favourite Kaity Dunstan held her place at no. 29 with her quirky version of Melanie's Brand New Key, while Team Seal contender Nicholas Roy's audition song, Falling Slowly took him to no. 33.


Former Sony Music signing Michael Paynter broke into the top 50 with Keane's Somewhere Only We Know (no.38), just ahead of Celia Pavey's Scarborough Fair (no.39).

Slipping just outside the 50 for the first time since his audition a week ago, Melbourne singer Harrison Craig drifted to no.58 for his version Josh Groban’s Broken Vow.

The iTunes figures follow a slow start for contestants on the official ARIA charts, with Harrison Craig’s Broken Vow selling 8798 copies in the 24 hours it was available within the survey period.

The only other Voice contestants to lob in the ARIA Top 50 were Celia Pavey at No.27 with 7140 sales and Kaity Dunstan at No.40 with 5088 sales.
