With soft-spoken confidence and a voice full of emotion, Toby quickly became one of the show\u2019s most memorable talents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During his blind audition, he performed Adele\u2019s \u201cEasy On Me\u201d with such control and feeling that all eyes were on him. But it was his knockout round performance of <strong>\u201cArcade\u201d<\/strong> by Duncan Laurence that truly set him apart. The song, already famous for its emotional depth and Eurovision win, found new life through Toby\u2019s voice. His delivery was delicate and powerful at once \u2014 a mix of innocence and pain that gave the song new meaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The audience and coaches alike were visibly moved. He wasn\u2019t just singing; he was telling a story, one filled with longing and vulnerability. His coach, Wincent Weiss, was so impressed that he sent Toby straight to the finals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"795\" height=\"791\" src=\"https:\/\/istori.website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/collage-istori.website-1133-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9551\" srcset=\"https:\/\/istori.website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/collage-istori.website-1133-1.png 795w, https:\/\/istori.website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/collage-istori.website-1133-1-300x298.png 300w, https:\/\/istori.website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/collage-istori.website-1133-1-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/istori.website\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/collage-istori.website-1133-1-768x764.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 795px) 100vw, 795px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the finale, Toby returned with \u201cNever Enough\u201d from <em>The Greatest Showman<\/em>, once again showing his remarkable vocal range and emotional strength. Though he didn\u2019t win the competition, he had already won hearts across Germany and far beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is Toby Schlosser Doing Now?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After the show ended, Toby returned to his home in Northamptonshire, where he\u2019s continued to pursue music with even more passion. Still only a teenager, he remains focused on school but is also dedicating time to developing his voice and songwriting skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Friends, family, and fans continue to support him, and his time on <em>The Voice Kids<\/em> has only strengthened his dream of becoming a professional musician. He&#8217;s shared in interviews how the experience helped him believe in himself more \u2014 not just as a singer, but as a storyteller.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Away from the spotlight, Toby enjoys normal teenage life \u2014 hanging out with friends, playing tennis, and dreaming big. But make no mistake: he\u2019s still working hard behind the scenes. With his talent, humility, and drive, it\u2019s only a matter of time before we hear more from him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Toby\u2019s \u201cArcade\u201d Performance Still Resonates<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What made Toby\u2019s \u201cArcade\u201d performance so unforgettable wasn\u2019t just the vocals \u2014 it was the feeling behind every word. You could see the connection in his eyes and hear it in his voice. That kind of authenticity is rare, especially from someone so young.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even now, clips from his audition continue to circulate on social media, gathering millions of views. Viewers from around the world comment on how moved they were, how they felt goosebumps, how a 13-year-old boy managed to express something so universal \u2014 heartbreak, hope, and healing \u2014 all in one song.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Toby\u2019s story isn\u2019t just about talent; it\u2019s about heart.

Still feeling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>You can watch his full performance below. \ud83c\udfa5<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1351\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/E_6DsNJ7Sbw\" title=\"Duncan Laurence - &quot;Arcade&quot; (Toby) | Knockouts | The Voice Kids 2023\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When 13-year-old Toby Schlosser stepped onto the stage of The Voice Kids Germany in 2023, he didn\u2019t just sing \u2014 he moved people.
