00:01It's go time Australia, we are live and tonight we find out which idols are bound for grand finale glory.
00:09You voted, you decided, your verdict revealed shortly.
00:13But before that, make some noise for your top six!
00:28But upon my heart, and as it fails, you rules to claim it.
00:36It was dark, and it was over, until you kissed my lips and you saved me.
00:44But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew.
00:49All the things you'd say they were never true, never true.
00:53In the games you played, you would always been, always been.
00:58But I set fire to the rain, watching more as I turned your face.
01:06Let it burn while I cried, cause I heard it screaming out your name.
01:14When I lay with you, I could stay there, close my eyes.
01:23We're here forever, you and me together, nothing gets better.
01:30Cause there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew.
01:35All the things you'd say they were never true, never true.
01:39In the games you played, you would always, would always win.
01:45But I set fire to the rain, watching more as I touched your face.
01:54When it burned while I cried, cause I heard it screaming out your name.
02:00Your name I set fire to the rain, and I could burst into the flames.
02:10When it burned while something died, cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time.
02:17But I said fire to the rain, cause I didn't burn while I cried, that was the last time.
02:30I said fire to the rain, and I said fire to the rain, so let it burn.
02:45You're Australian Idol Top 6!
02:50Wow!
02:52What?
02:53And keep it going for your Australian Idol judges!
02:58Bob Dylan!
03:00Marsha Hines!
03:02And Amy Sharp!
03:03So, who's ready for a huge night?
03:08We have reached the final stretch of the competition
03:11and overnight you voted on who you want
03:13standing on the grand finale stage.
03:16A phenomenal number of votes came in for your top six
03:19and any one of them has the potential to win the title.
03:23But unfortunately, three will leave the competition tonight.
03:29I can confirm.
03:30Voting has closed and we'll begin revealing your verdict very soon.
03:35Last night delivered both tears and triumphs in equal measures
03:39as your top six took to the stage for their heroes.
03:42Here's a reminder of how it went down.
03:46Our final six idols dug deep
03:51with tributes to the loved ones in their lives.
03:56My dad's playing for me on stage.
03:59I feel like a little girl again.
04:01I can't imagine anything more emotional
04:04than what you just did with your dad.
04:06Delivering a night of heartfelt performances.
04:13It's so lovely that you dedicated that song to your ma.
04:16And nobody puts Jacinta in the corner.
04:19That's what I wanted to say!
04:22Filled with love and raw emotion.
04:25I'll be there.
04:27I was choked up.
04:29All dads watching that want to be that sort of father
04:32that your dad is.
04:33I love you, Dad.
04:35Yeah!
04:40Making memories that will last forever.
04:43As long as you love me.
04:45That was a beautiful song.
04:47From the heart to your nan.
04:49My favourite place was my nan's house.
04:52And I just think you need to cherish those times
04:56because that was beautiful, what you just did.
04:59I've been waiting my whole life for a moment like this.
05:01The pinnacle of my career now.
05:04And with the grand finale just one week away.
05:10And I love that you're doing this for Bunbury.
05:12I love that town so much.
05:14You've done them really proud.
05:19They left everything on the stage.
05:22Rising to the moment when it mattered most.
05:28To get us in the palm of your hand.
05:31Just incredible to watch.
05:34This is it, Australia.
05:36My whole life has gone all for this.
05:39I don't want to see anyone leave.
05:40If this wasn't a competition, they would all be superstars.
05:45You voted.
05:46I'm so keen for it.
05:47I'm so hungry for it.
05:48And I really hope Australia likes what I've done.
05:50You decided.
05:52I'm hoping that Australia saw my heart, sees my soul.
05:55Who will make?
05:56And I just want to get to the grand finale so far.
05:59There's nothing that I want more.
06:01The grand finale.
06:03It would mean the absolute world to get through to the grand finale.
06:07So, yeah, I'm praying.
06:12It was such an amazing night.
06:14And you can relive all of them right now on iTunes, Spotify and Apple Music.
06:19And you can look them up and add them to your playlist now.
06:21So, Amy, we have got a top six but only three spots available in the grand finale.
06:26We are in for a heartbreaking night.
06:29Aren't we ever.
06:30I don't know what to expect tonight.
06:32I'm really scared but I'm also so proud of all of them.
06:36So, yeah, no matter what happens, you guys have done so well.
06:41So, good luck tonight.
06:46Kyle, in addition to the voting results, we also have an ARIA, Hall of Famer and an all-round legend
06:53hitting the stage tonight, Ms. Marsha Hines is performing.
06:59How exciting is that?
07:01It's pretty exciting to watch Marsha do what she's been doing since she was born.
07:06It's remarkable.
07:08And good luck to you guys.
07:09We were just talking earlier in the ads.
07:11We don't even know any idea who's got a chance to get through.
07:15But every person's record would be so different and unique and worth it.
07:19Yeah, they look like a super group.
07:21And can we thank you guys while we're here for one of the best Australian idols we've
07:26ever had?
07:27Yes.
07:33Now, we know what our judges think of our idols but we also love hearing from you, the
07:38critics at home, don't we, Scotty?
07:40Certainly do.
07:41I love looking at all the comments.
07:42Particularly the ones that we shout in capital letters.
07:45They are my favourite.
07:46Oh, yes.
07:46On Facebook and Instagram.
07:47We look at all of them but right now, Rosie Loves Kelpies on Instagram.
07:51It says she is hosting an idol watch party tonight and wants a shout out on TV.
07:55Well, here's your shout out, Rosie.
07:57What's up, Rosie?
07:58Over on Facebook, we've got Lele from Bondi.
08:01She says she wishes all the top six could go through the grand finale.
08:04And a lot of people have been saying the same thing.
08:06It doesn't work like that, guys.
08:08Unfortunately, we wish.
08:09But no, it couldn't do that.
08:10Keep the comments coming in.
08:11We absolutely love them.
08:12But, Ricky, I'm going to go check on the top six.
08:14Alrighty.
08:15Okay.
08:16Yeah, guys, we are doing things a little differently tonight.
08:18You will hear all of your top six perform again.
08:22And along the way, we'll reveal your verdict and find out which three are headed into the
08:28Australian Idol grand finale.
08:30Scotty is in the lounge with our top six.
08:32How are they doing down there, Scotty?
08:33They're doing good, all things considered.
08:35So we've got six here right now.
08:37But by the end of the show, only three will remain.
08:41So, Kesha, John and Harlan, how are you all feeling tonight?
08:45Yeah, you know, it's definitely a difficult night to see anyone go home or yourself go home.
08:52But I think we've all just embraced this amazing opportunity.
08:56And, you know, my heart is with every single one of you here.
08:59And I'm so lucky to experience this.
09:01So I'm just feeling more grateful than anything.
09:03So thank you, guys.
09:05And thank you, Idol, for this opportunity.
09:07I'm so excited.
09:09Very scared.
09:10But just ripped the band-aid off.
09:13Well, it's really scary.
09:15Yeah, above anything, far out, I'm just so proud to be here with all you guys.
09:21Like, it's been truly an amazing experience.
09:23And, yeah, we've all come so far.
09:25So, yeah.
09:26Awesome stuff.
09:27Yeah.
09:28All right.
09:29Trey, Jacinta Kalani, how are the nerves doing?
09:32Yeah, definitely feeling the nerves.
09:33But I just feel very lucky to be here with such an incredible top six.
09:37Yeah, feeling blessed.
09:39Feeling blessed.
09:41I'm feeling a mixture of being terrified and blessed.
09:45It's sort of a bittersweet moment because, you know, there's some, like, we're all so amazing.
09:49And it's so cool to see us all going for our dreams.
09:52But, you know, sadly, three of us will go.
09:54So I'm just, yeah, my heart's a little bit there at the moment.
09:58Definitely, I think, you know, as we all said, we're all so grateful for this experience.
10:03And anything beyond this point is a huge bonus.
10:06I mean, we all want to win.
10:07But, yeah, we've all come so far.
10:10And it's, I think, this is a life-changing experience for all of us.
10:14So we're all just stoked to be here.
10:16We've made lifelong friends.
10:17And, yeah, we've got Australia and the judges to thank.
10:21All righty.

25:53Singing bruises by Lewis Capaldi
25:55This is Kalani
25:57Thank you, Kalani
26:11Thank you, Kalani, thank you, Kalani, thank you, Kalani
26:25Every breath that I have taken since you left feels like a waste on me
26:34I've been told, I've been told to get you off my mind
26:38But I hope I never lose the bruises that you left behind
26:42Oh my lord, oh my lord, I need you by my side
26:49There must be something in the water
26:53Cause every day is getting colder
26:58And if only I could hold you
27:02You'd keep my life from going under
27:06And if only I could hold you
27:11You'd keep my life from going under
27:40You'd keep my life from going under
27:43I need to be respected
27:44Best of luck
27:45Thank you, brother

27:59Better
28:00And better
28:01And better
28:01And that's all we could ever ask
28:03And I wish you

39:52And so far tonight
39:53We have confirmed Harlan and Kalani
39:58As the first two heading into next week's grand finale
40:02That means there is just one spot left
40:06Which of our last two singers, Kesha or Trey
40:09Have you voted to take the final spot?
40:12Let's hear them sing again and then we will reveal your verdicts
40:16First to take to the stage is Kesha
40:18Our singing skier from Jindabyne in NSW
40:22Proudly watching on from the audience are her family and friends
40:26Singing Dancing Queen by ABBA
40:29This is Kesha
40:30Happy
40:51Friday night in the lights of love
40:57Looking now for a place to go
41:02Where they play the rock music
41:05Everything is fine
41:07You're in the mood for a dance
41:12And when you get the chance
41:17You are the dancing queen
41:21Feel the beat from the tambourine
41:29You can dance
41:33You can drive
41:35Having the time of your life
41:40See that girl
41:44Watch that scene
41:46Digging the dancing queen
41:58Thank you, everyone. Thank you. Thank you.
42:08You know, Kesha, through it all, there's something I'd like to say to you, and I'd like to say that
42:13I want to thank you for your grace.
42:15Because you've been so gracious and so nice during this whole thing, and I know this is madness
42:21You know, and I spoke to you a little bit earlier, and you just said, look, regardless, it's just been
42:27a great experience
42:28And for that I thank you. Thank you so much, Kesha
42:31The best experience ever. Thank you
42:35I've, um, I've started getting fed a lot of your TikToks
42:39And, um, and it's just really funny because you're, you know, you're such a vibe and you're so funny
42:44And then you come out here, and you're such a boss, and you're such a professional, and that's exactly how
42:49to play it
42:50You know exactly who you are when you're not on the stage
42:53But when you get on the stage, man, it's just like all eyes on me
42:56And, and they are, we're just obsessed with you
42:59And whatever happens tonight, you have got such a bright future
43:04No doubt
43:05Thank you, Amy, I appreciate it, I really do
43:08Thank you
43:11Yeah, beautifully done
43:12That's everyone's favourite song, and you somehow made it better than the original
43:17That's very hard to do
43:18And man, yes, it's nice that you're this and you're that, but you're frickin' hot up on that stage
43:26And it's gonna be tough
43:28You or Trey, that's, that's not fair to this country
43:32No, it's not
43:32I think we're going through enough struggle without putting this pressure on the public
43:37Don't you think?
43:38It's terrible
43:39Good luck, honey, well done
43:40Thank you, Carl, thank you
43:43Have another, have another snake, Carl, you'll be right
43:46Just pop another little snake in your mouth there
43:49He's had so many pythons tonight
43:50This is his big deep
43:50Always seems to make me feel better
43:52Just keep eating things
43:53Yes
43:54Makes you feel better

44:49Girl, I'm in love with you
44:51This ain't the honeymoon
44:53We're past the infatuation phase
44:56We're past the infatuation phase
44:58We're right in the thick of love

45:06Although love sometimes hurts
45:09Although love sometimes hurts
45:09I still put you first
45:11And we'll make this thing work
