00:01This is Australian Idol and we are live across the nation.
00:06You had your say and the volume of votes is off the charts.
00:12Your verdict will be revealed tonight.
00:14As we open the show, make some noise for your top ten.
00:30Another day is going out, yeah.
00:38I see your faces flying out, yeah.
00:46We're going out today.
00:48I think we'd stop and take a look now, yeah.
00:54So we have to say, baby, that we should reach out.
00:58Everybody, reach out and reach out and touch somebody.
01:09Reach out and reach out and reach out and touch somebody.
01:17In this old world, we all can see, yeah.
01:22Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:24So let's take away the silent fears.
01:30Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:32We caught our mistakes.
01:34You think we stopped and you'll take a look now.
01:38Yeah.
01:40Who's all we have to say?
01:41Who's going to be that we should reach out on?
01:45Everybody, reach out and reach out and touch somebody.
01:55Reach out and reach out and touch somebody.
02:02Reach out and reach out and touch somebody.
02:11Reach out and reach out and touch somebody.
02:20Your Australian Idol, Top Ten!
02:28Nice.
02:30Yes!
02:31Wow!
02:33Wowee!
02:33Keep the applause going for your Australian Idol judges!
02:39Judges, you're looking very sharp tonight.
02:42How are we doing?
02:43Doing great.
02:44We're doing well.
02:44How are you guys doing?
02:45Very good.
02:46That was good.
02:47They did a great job.
02:48They nailed that.
02:48Wasn't it amazing?
02:49Excellent.
02:50So good.
02:51Here we go.
02:52Well, we had two nights of spectacular performances as your idols took on an all-Aussie music playlist.
02:58We had songs from Farnsey, Crowded House, Kylie, Tones and I, so many more.
03:04It was banger after banger on Sunday night.
03:07The first half of your Top Ten performed and it was absolutely incredible.
03:12Then, last night, the second group took to the stage and showed Australia why they are the complete package and
03:19deserving of your votes.
03:21The voting was open for each heat for 24 hours, but I can confirm voting has closed.
03:28And we are now verifying the numbers before we reveal the results.
03:33Sunday night's heat had Johnny Jukebox from Bunbury, NWA.
03:40Our central coast landscaper, Killarney.
03:45And forklift driver from Bacchus Marsh, Jacinta.
03:51Plus, our barber from Ballarat, Harry.
03:55And our singing skier from Jindabyne, Kesha.
04:01At the end of the show, the judges save Kesha from the public vote for her amazing cover of Olivia
04:07Newton-John's Hopelessly Devoted to You.
04:11Here's a reminder of what went down.
04:16From coast to coast, the country tuned in for an all-Aussie showdown.
04:21This one's for you, Australia.
04:22Let's do this.
04:31What a way to kick off the show, man.
04:33Baby in the summertime.
04:35Nice work.
04:36It was so exciting.
04:38I just love being on the stage with such a buzz.
04:41Dreams were made.
04:43Don't dream it so well.
04:45You just sound like heaven.
04:47You're a little sexy bastard too, aren't you?
04:50But then, the harshest critic emerged.
04:54Why no, why no, why no, all that I'm hearing from you.
05:00I thought that was rubbish.
05:02Oh, what?
05:04That whole angsty stuff.
05:05You're a nicer guy than that.
05:07Artists grow, and I think...
05:09He's just too soft to be hard.
05:11I don't think so.
05:12I think a soft guy can definitely be a rock star on stage.
05:15Look, Amy, she loves rock and roll.
05:17But look at her.
05:18That's the real Amy there in a pretty little satin dress.
05:23I don't think we've ever seen someone grow so much on this show before.
05:28You still look a little nervous strutting around.
05:32Considering that was, like, my first time moving that much, I think I did pretty okay.
05:36Yeah.
05:37And one idol delivered a performance Australia won't forget.
05:41I'm hopelessly devoted to you.
05:45You've got a great gift.
05:47You did a brilliant job.
05:49Scoring our singing skier from Jindabyne, The Judges Save.
05:53Kesha Hay.
05:56Getting The Judges Save is like...
05:58I can't even comprehend.
06:00Now, the moment has arrived.
06:03Some of the performances have been so full of heart, and I hope that's what Australia saw.
06:08Whose idol journey will end tonight.
06:11I really hope that Australia can see the effort that I've put into that performance.
06:14I'm not ready to go home with so much more show.
06:17I want to keep living out my dreams on that stage, and I don't want to go.
06:21It's not my time now.
06:25The performances from our idols just keep getting better and better.
06:31You can stream or download every song from this series on all your favourite streaming
06:36devices, like Spotify and Apple Music.
06:38Just get amongst it.
06:39Carla, Marsha, everyone is praising the calibre of talent this season, making each elimination
06:45get harder and harder, right?
06:47Indeed, you know, like, the kids have stepped up.
06:50The performances are, like, on another level, and I don't think we could be prouder.
06:54Like, we've travelled the whole country to find these people.
06:58Yes, you have.
06:58And you guys should be very proud of yourselves.
07:01My mum rang me the other night, and she cried at Kesha's Olivia Newton-John song.
07:05It was beautiful, wasn't it?
07:07It made my heart melt.
07:08Your mum crying on the phone to you.
07:11I loved it.
07:11So beautiful.
07:12Amy, the two idols from each heat with the lowest votes will sing again tonight to show
07:17us why they should not be leaving the competition.
07:20So there's a positive that comes with the negative, right?
07:23I mean, it's not every day you get to perform in front of the whole country, so I think they
07:27need to see that as a positive, for sure.
07:29Absolutely.
07:29And also, for us, we always like to hear another artist perform, don't we, guys?
07:35Yeah, we do.
07:36So it's not all bad.
07:38Now, needless to say, our socials were absolutely blowing up with lots of love and comments
07:44for our idols.
07:46Make sure you follow us at Australian Idol on TikTok, Instagram and Facebook to join
07:50the conversation.
07:51You're not texting.
07:53You are doing something work-related there with your phone.
07:55No way.
07:56No way.
07:56But the comments...
07:57No.
07:57Oh, no, I won't.
07:58The comments are already rolling in your shortcut.
08:01Over on Facebook, everyone just love, love, loved Aussie Music Week, which we all agree.
08:06Phoebe from Jarvis Bay says her dog Lola howled along to all the high notes.
08:10So sorry to run to Jarvis Bay about that one.
08:13Ricky Stewart from Broome said he wished he had more than 10 votes to use, and a lot of
08:17people agree.
08:18It's very hard to use the 10 votes.
08:19It's hard.
08:20On Instagram, plenty of excitement about tonight's special guest.
08:23Our ARIA award-winning Bujara is in the house.
08:26Woo-hoo!
08:28That's getting hyped as well.
08:29How good is this?
08:30But right now, I'm going to go check in on our idols down at the lounge.
08:33All righty, Scotty.
08:34Off you go.
08:35We are just minutes away from learning who from Sunday night's show is safe and who has
08:40to sing again, Australia, to prove to you that they deserve a spot in the top eight.
08:45Then we reveal which idol will be leaving the competition for goods.
08:51I'm here with the five idols who have performed on Sunday night, but by the end of tonight, only
08:56four of you will survive.
08:58But of course, Kesha over here.
09:00She's scored.
09:01Yeah, the judges say you've already submitted your place in the top eight.
09:05How are you feeling for your fellow idols who are on the chopping block tonight?
09:09Oh, I mean, I love every single person that I've met in this competition, and they all
09:13have my heart, like I said the other night.
09:15So I'm just giving them my love and support and positiveness, and it doesn't matter what
09:21happens because I just think they're all amazing and they're all going to do great things.
09:25So love you all.
09:26You're like a care badge, pushing out the love to them.
09:28Well, the wait is nearly over.
09:30Australia, we're going to reveal your votes and your verdict when Idol returns after the
09:35break.
09:45This is Idol, we are live, and it is results time.
09:49Yes, it is.
09:50On Sunday night, these singers performed for your votes.
09:54Tonight, their goal is to make it safely into the top eight.
09:59We have four spots available, but one is already taken by the judges' save, Kesha, over there
10:06in the lounge.
10:09So the two idols from this group with the fewest votes will sing again to show Australia why
10:14they deserve to be here next week.
10:17Then one of those two will be eliminated tonight.
10:20This means absolutely everything.
10:24Verdict Time Australia, let's find out how you voted.
10:30In no particular order, we will bring you over one at a time.
10:36First up, Harry.
10:40Come on over here, buddy.
10:43You are our barber from Ballarat.
10:46On Sunday night, you sang The Living End's White Noise.
10:49Some of the judges loved it, but it's Australia who has the final say.
10:54You ready to find out the result, buddy?
10:56For sure.
10:57Yeah, either way.
10:58Happy.
10:59Happy.
11:00Okay, well, Harry, Australia voted, and I can now reveal that you are in the bottom
11:12two.
11:15Harry, it's not the news you want to hear, right?
11:18No, not at all, obviously, after last week.
11:21Bottom two again, but that's, yeah, it's another opportunity to sing, and I'm kind of happy for
11:24that.
11:25Yeah.
11:26For sure.
11:27Judges, never good to see a singer in the bottom two.
11:31Surprised by this?
11:34What?
11:35You're surprised by this?
11:36It's never good to see a singer in the bottom two.
11:38I'm not surprised.
11:39Him surprised?
11:40No.
11:41No, Kyle's not surprised.
11:42I'm not actually the way he does.
11:43He sort of gave him the KOD and everything.
11:45He said he wasn't good, and, you know, he wasn't sexy, but I totally disagree, Harry.
11:50You know, I think you did a great job, but that's from my point of view, and, you know,
11:54you've got to remember where Kyle's coming from.
11:56But we're at top ten now, and it's like, someone needs to go home, so don't hold your
12:02head low.
12:03It's just a part of the competition.
12:05For sure.
12:06Yeah, thank you so much.
12:07Okay, Harry.
12:08Over to the danger zone.
12:12All right, you guys.
12:13Next up, Kalani.
12:26Kalani, our landscaper from the central coast of New South Wales.
12:31How's your heart right now?
12:32It's racing.
12:33Yeah?
12:34That's for sure, yeah.
12:34I'm definitely nervous.
12:37Yeah, I'm nervous.
12:38Okay.
12:39Kalani, you gave us the iconic Don't Dream It's Over by Crowded House.
12:44Should we find out the results?
12:47Let's find out.
12:48And find out if your idle dream is over, or whether you're safe and into the top eight.
12:56All right.
12:57After the nation voted, I can confirm you are...
13:08Safe.
13:12Wow.
13:13Well done, congratulations.
13:14You are in the top eight, my friend.
13:16Thank you so much.
13:21All right, come on over here, John and Jacinta.
13:24Jacinta, one of you is safe, and unfortunately, one of you isn't.
13:30Johnny Jukebox, you gave us a unique, beautiful, amazing version of Thirsty Merc.
13:36Even Ray, the lead singer, sent his message of approval, which is very, very cool.
13:42Are you ready to find out where you stand?
13:43I am.
13:44Let's just get it over with.
13:46And Jacinta, you sang On a Night Like This from the one and only Kylie Minogue.
13:51Jacinta, do you feel like everything is in line tonight for you?
13:56I mean, you know, I have all these gut feelings at the moment, and I'm just, you know, I'm
14:02just here with John right now, and either way, whatever happens, I'm proud of us both.
14:06Okay.
14:09The next name that I read out is safe, and through to the top eight.
14:37Well done, John, congratulations, you have made it into the top eight.
14:45Which means, Jacinta, Australia has voted and has put you in the bottom two.
14:51Jacinta, how do you feel?
14:53Did you expect that?
14:55Look, I mean, no one comes into this expecting to be in the bottom two, but, you know, I've
15:00been in bottom places for a long time, so I'm just going to enjoy the next performance
15:06and have fun if it's my last one, and thanks for voting for me anyway.
15:10That's the way.
15:11Good attitude, girlfriend.
15:13Come over here and join us, Harry.
15:15Now, having received the least amount of votes from Sunday night, unfortunately, you both
15:20face elimination, which means you'll sing again to show Australia why you deserve to be here
15:25next week.
15:26Harry and Jacinta, head on backstage and get ready to perform again for what may be the last
15:33time.
15:35Amy, some super talented singers in trouble at the moment.
15:39How does that sit with you?
15:41I mean, it's just difficult, right?
15:43Because they got through all these challenges.
15:45I just think that they should try and see this as positive as they can.
15:50You know, we are at the pointy end of the whole competition.
15:53They have done so well, so I hope they get out there and just give it everything they have.
15:57Just remind everyone how great they are.
15:59Absolutely.
16:01Marcia, it's live TV and this is a crucial moment for Harry and Jacinta.
16:07How much pressure are they under right now?
16:10You know, a lot of pressure.
16:11I was watching the first song, you know, that they sang, you know, the group thing.
16:14And I was saying that, Kyle, you know, we don't have television shows anymore where people
16:19learn the craft of being on television.
16:21And that's one of the best things about the show.
16:24Yeah.
16:25You know, you learn to wait.
16:26You learn to sort of step up when you have to.
16:28And I think everyone has done a sterling job.
16:31Not just that, Marcia, but, like, the performances and they're up early and they're learning new
16:36songs every week and they're learning group songs and they've got to have their second
16:39song if they don't get through tonight.
16:41It's the best training ground.
16:43They're going to charity things, they're doing interviews.
16:44Yeah.
16:44Yeah, it's relentless.
16:46It's 24-7.
16:46They're working.
16:47Okay.
16:47They're working.
16:49And that's totally impressive.
16:50It's wonderful.
16:51It is.
16:51Yeah.
16:51Super impressive.
16:52Yeah.
16:54Kyle, if they're listening backstage right now, have you got anything to say to Harry and
16:58Jacinta before they sing again?
16:59Yes, you were both the weakest on the show on that Sunday night.
17:04Australia's got it right.
17:06Prove to us why you deserve to stay here.
17:08So, best of luck to both of them.
17:10Okay.
17:11Okay.
17:11Well, Harry and Jacinta, face elimination, performing under this pressure.
17:16It's just not easy.
17:17No.
17:18First to take to the stage, though, is our fabulous forklift driver from Bacchus Marsh.
17:23She's given us inspiring performances week after week.
17:27So, to prove why she should stay in the competition with a new song to show off her talent, singing
17:33Scars to Your Beautiful by Alessia Cara, please welcome Jacinta.
17:59She just wants to be the first she goes.
18:05I know that she knows no limits.
18:09She craves attention.
18:11She praises an image.
18:14She prays to be sculpted by the sculptor.
18:18There's a hope that's waiting for you in the dark.
18:23You should know you're beautiful just the way you are.
18:27You don't have to change a thing.
18:31The world could change its heart.
18:33No stars, you're beautiful.
18:35With stars, we're beautiful.
19:16Oh Jacinta you know what sometimes you're amazing tonight's one of those

21:09prove why she deserves to be here now it's Harry's turn he's our barber from

23:02I do remember that
23:03And just to see where you've come, even doing something like that
23:07Without guitars or stands or anything

23:14So well done for performing

25:59It is such a shame to see you leave the competition
26:02We have loved having you with us
26:04Harry, what's been the highlight of your idol journey so far?
26:08There's been so many, it's been awesome
26:11All the opportunities I suppose that we've had
26:13And just working with such high industry level people
26:15And sort of getting to experience what it's like being this high up in show business
26:19It's been amazing
26:20Obviously all the friends that I've made, it's been phenomenal
26:23Some of them aren't here, some of them are here
26:25But I've had such a great time
26:27They're friends who have for the rest of your life Harry, truly
26:30Sure
26:31Judges, anything to add before Harry leaves the idol stage?
26:34I think what Marsha said, you really do have an incredible rock voice man
26:38It's crazy
26:39It's really unique
26:39It's a crazy voice
26:40You should go and flex that
26:41And just keep working man, you know, that's what this industry is about
26:44You just keep working, believe in yourself
26:45And hopefully all goes well
26:47He can be a model, he can be a hairdresser, he can be a singer
26:51What can't he do?
26:52You've got so many opportunities and options
26:54Unlike the rest of us
26:55Some of us only have one
26:56That's right
26:58Good luck man
26:59Good luck Harry

32:22Here you are an Australian Idol doing your thing
32:25You suave gentleman you

33:10And right after the break
33:11We find out who you voted into the top 8 from last night's show
33:15Already there is our doting dad Trey from Melbourne, Victoria
33:20Who the judges
33:22Who the judges
33:22Who got the judges saved
33:23And that leaves Charlie, Harlan, Wanwoo and Samela
33:26All facing elimination
33:28One must go home
33:30Don't move a muscle
33:31Idol is back in a moment
33:43This is Australian Idol's live voting show
33:47And we're about to find out who stays and who goes
33:49From last night's show
33:51The tension is getting too much Scotty
33:54I can't handle it
33:54It's a lot, it's a lot in here
33:56Well there are a record number of votes that we received
33:58As you voted for who you wanted to save
34:01Last night we saw performances from our Perth soul man Charlie
34:07Brisbane Ballot King Harlan
34:10And our all singing, all rapping Wanwoo
34:15Plus young dad Trey
34:19And Adelaide school teacher Samela
34:24They went all out and left nothing on the stage
34:28Let's take a look at how last night played out
34:33Aussie, Aussie, Aussie
34:34Aussie, Aussie
34:36One, two, three, come on
34:39The Aussie party kept on coming
34:42I said I had a dream
34:45So individual and so different
34:47And you know what you need to do
34:49And you did it tonight, well done
34:51Hoping I've done enough
34:52I gave it every single bit of juice that I had
34:54There's nothing left in the tank, you know
34:58Some performances were untouchable
35:03That was Grammy performance right there
35:07R to the R to the CKR
35:10Vicky Lee girl, you're so fly
35:13Others brought the house down
35:19You're very real
35:20I just want to go and have a beer with you
35:21Amy and I are going to get a schooner
35:24Or two schooners
35:26Double pox
35:27And one idol
35:30Dared to take on
35:31Aussie music royalty
35:39What the actual Harlan is going on
35:43Only the bravest or the craziest human being on earth
35:46Would get on this stage and sing John Farnham live
35:49And he smacked it
35:51I'll be messed up if you can't be right here
35:55But one hit song was turned into a moment of idol magic
36:04You're so ready for the world stage Trey
36:06Because you are amazing
36:08Thank you so much
36:09Saving our young dad from the public vote
36:12Trey
36:17I'm over the moon
36:19I can't stop smiling
36:21Tonight's been off its head
36:23Now it all comes down to this
36:28Everyone's saying there's the best idol ever
36:30I have to agree
36:31I really hope Australia has voted for me
36:33Because I am just at the beginning of this journey
36:37And I have so much to show
36:38Who's heading into the top eight
36:41Wonder what the one two
36:43And now I'm in the top ten
36:45Get me through to the top eight
36:51What a night
36:53Everyone brought their A game
36:55And every performance was incredible
36:58I can't pick how this is going to go tonight
37:00It really is anyone's game
37:02With Trey scoring the judge save
37:05He can relax over there in the lounge
37:07Knowing he has a guaranteed place in the top eight
37:12For Charlie, Harlan, Wanwu and Samela
37:14Their future hangs in the balance
37:17Alright everybody
37:19Let's do this
37:20Hit the lights
37:23Idols
37:24In no particular order
37:26When we call your name
37:28Come on over
37:30First up
37:33Samela
37:38Hello, how are you?
37:40Hello guys, I'm good
37:41I'm good
37:41Samela, our mum and teacher from Adelaide
37:46Last night you sang the iconic Aussie classic
37:50Buses and Trains
37:51The judges loved it
37:52But it's Australia
37:54Who has the final say
37:56How are your palms right now?
37:58Give me a little clammy palms test
38:01Very clammy
38:03Confirmed
38:04Okay Samela, Australia voted
38:06And I can now reveal
38:09You
38:10Are
38:16Safe
38:17Safe
38:19Oh my god
38:21Congratulations Samela
38:22Thank you so much
38:22You are in the top eight
38:24Congratulations
38:24Go and celebrate in the lounge with Trey
38:27Well done Samela
38:30Alright, next up we have got
38:34Wanwoo
38:36Come on over here
38:38Hi girl, hi
38:40Should we just rip the bandaid off?
38:42Cause that face looks like
38:43Please take it off
38:45Okay, we'll do it gently
38:47Okay, cause you sang Ricky Lee's Can't Touch It
38:50And nailed it
38:51Ricky loved it
38:53But did Australia
38:55After the nation voted
38:57I can confirm
38:59That you are
39:06In the bottom two
39:10Alright, that really isn't the result that you wanted right?
39:13Not at all, not at all
39:15But Australia voted and I just have to prove Australia wrong
39:18Yeah you do
39:20Yeah you do
39:21I can see the judges
39:22Marsha's pointing right now
39:23Do you want to say something Marsha?
39:25Yeah, I think that's exactly right
39:26You know, this is the hardest part because we don't have anything to do with this
39:31And people are watching and this is what they're voting for
39:34And I think at this point in time, mm-mm, they're wrong
39:36Yeah, we see it a lot
39:39Good people on this show go home
39:41Over to the danger zone there Wanwoo
39:44Crossing our fingers for you
39:45Oh damn
39:46Alright, lucky last
39:48Come on over Harlan and Charlie
39:51One of you will make it safely
39:55Into the top eight
39:56While the other will be singing for your life alongside Wanwoo
40:01Harlan, you took on the mighty John Farnham last night
40:06Yes
40:06A risky move that may or may not have paid off
40:10You know how protective Aussies are of Farnsie, don't you?
40:15Yes
40:16Alright, Charlie, you were a little bit under the weather last night
40:20But you still powered through your performance
40:22Let's hope your cold didn't impact your chances there
40:26Hopefully not
40:27Alright
40:27The next name I read out is Safe
40:31And through to the top eight
40:35And that person is
40:38Harlan!
40:40Harlan!
40:41Harlan!
40:43Harlan!
40:45Harlan!
40:49Harlan!
40:55Harlan!
40:56Harlan!
40:56You, my friend, are in the top eight
40:59Congratulations
40:59You survived another week
41:01Go and celebrate with the others
41:03Yes!
41:06So unfortunately, Charlie
41:07You have been voted into the bottom two
41:10What do you make of that?
41:11You know, it's unfortunate
41:13I had a cold and I felt disappointed that I couldn't give it everything I had the other night
41:17And sometimes that's the way that it is
41:19But you did, you gave it everything you possibly could
41:22Yeah, yeah
41:24Wanwoo, come over here and join us
41:25Wanwoo and Charlie
41:28You both need to sing for us again
41:31Which I'm personally excited about
41:33For one of you though, it will be the last time on the Idol stage
41:37Head backstage both of you and get ready to perform
41:40Tense times for Wanwoo and Charlie
41:43Both receiving the least amount of votes from last night's show
41:50Amy, I can see that you're a little shocked with that result there
41:53Well, it's funny, Scotty, because then I look over and I'm like
41:57Who would I have expected to go?
41:59I don't know who I would have ever expected to go
42:02You know, it's just a really crappy part of the competition
42:05I wish we didn't have to go through
42:06I also didn't mean to wear the horrible red colour of the verdict
42:10Every time it goes red, I feel like I'm triggering everyone
42:13Sorry
42:14I mean, it's a reality of this part of the competition
42:17Everyone is so amazingly talented
42:19So we are going to be losing really talented people every night
42:22Kyle, no doubt there have been some times in your career
42:25Where you've had some high pressure moments like this
42:28How do you stay focused?
42:29When it matters most
42:31What a week to bring that up, I can't think of anything
42:36Ricky just went off script then, she just wanted to ask that
42:39I've had a few moments
42:41High stakes
42:42It is high stakes
42:43You know what, last night was the toughest one
42:46We couldn't figure out
42:47I think Sunday nights, we all figured out who would be in the bottom two
42:51But last night, that was anyone's race
42:53You know, but Ricky, you've been here
42:56You know what this is like
42:57More than anybody, you know
42:59And so, it's not easy, but you just got to keep going girlfriend
43:02You sure do, that's the name of the game
43:04That's true
43:05Okay, well their future is far from certain
43:07Both will perform again to show that they have what it takes to remain in the competition
43:12One will go through to the top eight, and the other one will leave for good
43:16First up to sing is our soul man from Perth, Charlie
43:20Our beanie boy has wowed the judges with every soulful song he has performed on this stage
43:28With another soulful spin on dancing on my own
43:32Make some noise for Charlie

45:23I would love to do more
45:24No, thank you
45:29Shelly your consistency is one of the best things and you know as as
45:34Amy and I so we're and I think I would be when you're not 100%
45:38It's so hard to give a performance, but you know what the audience don't know that
45:42So you've just got to step up and do what you've got to do. Okay, and that's what you did.
45:46Well, Charlie really well
45:47You did great. Thank you gosh, thank you
45:51Um
45:53Charlie you're just like one of these artists that is you just so real I said this to Trey the
45:59other night
45:59You've got I can just feel it in your conviction like you've got stories to tell you've
46:05You've seen the lowest of lows and the highest of highs and I can see the love and happiness
46:10But also the pain you've been through and everything and I just no matter what happens
46:15I really hope you get in the studio and tell all these stories because I'm excited for your career
46:21Thank you. Thank you. I mean, that's definitely fantastic

46:40right now
46:41We're moments away from finding out Charlie's fate before that we've got to hear from one whoo on the other
46:48side of the break
46:48Then we'll find out who is leaving idle for good Charlie or one whoo stay with us idle
46:55We'll be back right after this
47:06You're watching idle and we are live for the break
47:09We found out one whoo and Charlie received the fewest votes from last night's show in a last bid sing
47:15off to show that they should stay in the competition
47:17Charlie just gave us a performance from dancing on my own by Callum Scott
47:22Yes, and now it's one woos moment one woo is our all singing all rapping star

47:43tag by Jessie J
47:44This is one
47:52Oh
47:52Oh
48:07You're the one
48:13Seems like everybody Around to crown and Anna haven't been at
48:19When Brazil comes first and the truth comes second, just stop for a minute and smile.
48:25Why is everybody so serious? You're acting so damn mysterious.
48:30You got your heads on top and your heels so high that you can't even have a good time.
48:36Everybody look to the up. Everybody look to the right.
48:41Can you feel that? You're playing with love tonight.
48:44And it's not about the money, money, money. We don't need your money, money, money.
48:50We just want to make the world dance. Forget about the prize dance.
48:56We don't want ya, uh, cha-ching, cha-ching. We don't need ya, yeah.
49:00But they want to make the world dance. Forget about the prize dance.
49:24Thank you, everyone.
49:26One woo. Just up there doing what you were born to do.
49:33Um...
49:34I mean, I...
49:35We say it each week just how effortless you make it look.
49:39But I think, you know, what I've really learnt about you and loved about you is just your empathy and
49:45just you're such a kind-hearted person.
49:47You know, back when we were doing the challenges, you were so good, um, with Jacinta. I remember that.
49:52And the other night you shouted out Sophie. And I just think that that's just such a, um, it's such
49:57an important thing as an artist to never lose that.
50:00And that's what makes you the whole package. So, um, good luck tonight. Another amazing performance.
50:06Thank you, Amy.
50:12That was one of your strongest performances.
50:16You really, uh, you've stepped up, you've stepped up, you've stepped up, you know.
50:22And, I mean, I don't know that you knew you could be this good.
50:26I did not.
50:27I know you didn't, but I am so proud of you and you've done so well.
50:32Juan Wu, God bless you.
50:35Mm-hmm.
50:36Yeah.
50:37Juan Wu, not only have you showed to everyone that works behind the scenes, in front of the cameras, behind
50:43the cameras,
50:43what a beautiful human being you are, as Amy and Marsha pointed out.
50:47But you're a gorgeous woman. Your voice is so rich.
50:52Beautiful.
50:52And you know what I...
50:55I would hate for you to go home tonight without teaching me how to do that, that hip roll thing,
51:00because that was sexy, man.
51:02Nuh-uh. Nuh-uh, no.
51:02That shit was sexy.
51:05I like it.
51:06I like it a lot.
51:09Come on, Kyle. Give it a go.
51:11I don't know. Should I?
51:12Come on, Kyle.

51:15Come on, Kyle.
51:21Oh, no, no, no, no.
51:29You get a...
51:30You get a host save for that.
51:32It's a yes from us.
51:34There's a lot wobbling.
51:35I think we're still in the wrong place.

52:01Let's do this.
52:04Charlie and Juan Wu, it is time.
52:09Australia, you had 24 hours to vote.
52:12It's your decision.
52:15The results are on this card, fully counted and verified.
52:21And we can now reveal the singer who is safe and will continue their idle journey into the top eight
52:30is...
52:31right, to take a seat.
52:32One play.

52:45Charlie!
52:48Charlie!
52:49Cheers.
52:53Congratulations, Charlie!
52:55You are safe for another week.
52:59Aren't you stoked?
53:01I'm super stoked.
53:02Thank you so much for voting for me.
53:04Thank you to everyone at home in WA.
53:06This means the world.
53:07I will not take this for light.
53:09I'm coming back and coming back strong.
53:12Thank you so much.
53:14Well done, Charlie.
53:15You are through to the top eight.
53:17You can join the gang in the lounge now.
53:21Unfortunately, though, that does mean we need to farewell.
53:25One.
53:25Woo, I'm so sorry.
53:27It's okay.
53:28It's okay, everybody.
53:29There's only one, one, woo.

53:36Yeah, this is not the end.
53:38This is the start of my journey.
53:40I have come so far.
53:42I have come so, so, so far.
53:45I'm not stopping here.
53:47I've met these amazing people.
53:49Amazing opportunities.
53:51One, woo, will be through somewhere else, and that's okay.
53:55All good things must come to an end.
53:56There's always a storm before the rainbow.
53:59I'm fine.
53:59I'm fine.
54:00Yes, you are.

54:08I thank you for your contribution.
54:09I thank you for your heart.
54:10I thank you for your family and the support that they've given you.

54:21Girlfriend.
54:23Hey, Wanwoo.

54:33long as they put their mind to it.

54:35You've got the profile.
54:36Go for gold, honey.
54:38Go for gold.
54:41Girlfriend, you are such a vibe.
54:44From meeting you at auditions to now, my gosh, you are so talented and unique, and you're an inspiration to
54:50so many people, and I know we're going to see plenty more of you in the future.
