Henry auditioned for The Voice UK at age thirty-two with "Closer", originally by Ne-Yo,[3] appearing on the third of four audition shows. Two coaches, Jessie J and Danny O'Donoghue elected for Henry to join their teams - with Henry selecting Jessie J. During the battle rounds, Henry sung "Beat It", originally by Michael Jackson, against twenty-nine-year-old David Faulkner - with Jessie crowning him the winner.[3] In the second live show, Henry performed "Paradise" by Coldplay - proceeding to the next show as a result of the public vote.[3] In the fourth live show, Henry performed Adele's "Turning Tables" - finding himself in the bottom three alongside Toni Warne and Becky Hill; from which he was eliminated from the competition.[3]
