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 nights did yourself proud
19:23that's the perfect song for you don't you think yeah and if you do go home tonight I'm sure
19:28we'll see you again sometime in the future best of luck Jacinta your transformation has been

38:55after the nation voted i can confirm that you are
39:07in the bottom two
39:10all right that really isn't the result that you wanted right not at all not at all but australia
39:16voted and i just have to prove australia wrong yeah yeah yeah i can see the judges
39:22marsh is pointing right now you want to say something i i think that's exactly right you know
39:27this is the hardest part because we don't have anything to do with this and people are watching
39:32and this is what they're voting for and i think at this point in time they're wrong
39:37yeah we see it a lot good people on this show go home over to the danger zone there wanwu
39:44crossing our fingers for you oh damn all right lucky last come on over harlan and charlie
39:51one of you will make it safely into the top eight while the other will be singing for your life
39:59alongside one one harlan you took on the mighty john farnham last night
40:06yes a risky move that may or may not have paid off you know how protective aussies are of fancy
40:13don't
40:14you yes yes all right charlie you were a little bit under the weather last night but you still
40:20powered through your performance let's hope your cold didn't impact your chances there hopefully not
40:27all right the next name i read out is safe and through to the top eight
40:59you survived another week go and celebrate with the others
41:05so unfortunately charlie uh you've been voted into the bottom two what do you make of that oh
41:11you know it's unfortunate i had a cold and i i felt disappointed that i couldn't give it everything
41:16i had the other night and just sometimes that's the way that it is but you did you gave it
41:20everything
41:20you possibly could yeah yeah uh wanwu come over here and join us wanwu and charlie
41:27you both need to sing for us again which i'm personally excited about for one of you though it
41:34will be the last time on the idle stage head backstage both of you and get ready to perform
41:40tense times for wanwu and charlie both receiving the least amount of votes from last night's
41:50shot amy i can see that you're a little shocked with that result there well it's funny scotty
41:55because then i look over and i'm like like who would i have expected to go i don't know who
42:00i
42:00would have ever expected to go you know it's just a really crappy part of the competition i wish we
42:05didn't have to go through i also didn't mean to wear the horrible red color of the verdict every time
42:10it goes red i feel like i'm triggering everyone so sorry i mean it's a reality of of this part
42:16of the
42:16competition everyone is so amazingly talented so we are going to be losing really talented people

42:26pressure moments like this how do you stay focused oh here we go when it matters most
42:31what a week to bring that up i can't think of anything

42:44last night was the toughest one we couldn't we couldn't figure out i think sunday nights we all
42:50figured out who would be in the bottom two but last night that was anyone's race yes it was you
42:54know but ricky you've been here you know what this is like more than anybody you know and so it's
43:00not
43:00easy but you just got to keep going girlfriend you sure do that's the name of the game that's true
43:05okay well their future is far from certain both will perform again to show that they have what it takes
43:10to remain in the competition one will go through to the top eight and the other one will leave for
43:15good first up to sing is our soul man from perth charlie our beanie boy has wowed the judges with
