00:02:31Adele so oh Adele no that's a big sing honey I know I know she's I was expecting like it
00:02:37I don't know
00:02:37pop star honestly I thought I'd do a bit more dancing around but I feel like we're keeping it
00:02:43chill today okay okay you definitely look like what we're looking for thank you but we need the entire
00:02:49package yeah so let's see how your pipes are I'm looking forward to hearing you sing thank you very
00:02:55much whenever you're ready some when the rain is blowing in your face and the whole world is on your
00:03:19case
00:03:21I could offer you a warm embrace to make you feel my love I know you haven't made your mind
00:03:37up yet oh but I would never do you wrong
00:03:45I've known it from the moment that we met no doubt in my mind where you belong
00:03:58I'd go hungry I'd go black and blue and I'd go crawling down the avenue
00:04:10no there's nothing I wouldn't do to make you feel my love to make you feel my that's all good
00:04:31that's all good all good nice right yes but it is not what I expected
00:04:38from you I didn't expect a young beautiful vibrant structured model looking girl to come
00:04:44in and sing old sad lady songs I know you can do that but that's just not going to cut
00:04:53it the singers we've got this year are incredible we get one song to make our decision and as nice
00:04:59as that was
00:05:01I'm not sure whether you're strong enough to be put forward what do you think ladies
00:05:09um beautiful voice but I kind of see where Kyle's coming from it just feels sure like yeah a bit
00:05:16detached I could sort of see your your sassiness coming through that song I was like oh she's holding back
00:05:23a little bit but she did say that she did say that before she performed she's not going to do
00:05:28anything you're going to stand still and sing
00:05:29we don't have a magic crystal ball here I want to see what I'm offered
00:05:36I never do this ever I want you to go away pick a song that actually shows us who you
00:05:44are and come back and re-audition
00:05:46more like see that in the next audition maybe if you say yes I can show you that in the
00:05:52next one there's no
00:05:52next one you're coming back to re-audition with a new song would you do that yeah I can read
00:05:57something you're
00:05:58gonna have a chance to reprocess what it is you want to do I believe that's the singer that you
00:06:05just sang that's
00:06:06what you want to do but I'm going to humor them is that what you want to do I've got
00:06:11other songs I
00:06:12want to dance so you want to you want to strut around you cool with that yeah okay I've got
00:06:19to go study

00:25:21Hello.
00:25:22Oh, hi there, guys. Come on in.
00:25:25Who have we got here?
00:25:26Piano player.
00:25:27Oh, you're playing and you're auditioning?
00:25:30Yes.
00:25:30What's your name?
00:25:31I feel like I've just gone back in time.
00:25:32My name is Amalia Safonova.
00:25:34What's your surname?
00:25:36Safonova.
00:25:37Where are you from?
00:25:38So I was born here, however, my family is based from Moldova.
00:25:42Oh, wonderful.
00:25:44Yeah.
00:25:44Is that where the Princess Diaries was?
00:25:47Probably not.
00:25:48Oh, you guys, you didn't probably have TV in Moldova.
00:25:51Yeah, and this is my brother. He will be accompanying me. It is his duty.
00:25:55Oh, wonderful. So you're a musical family?
00:25:58Yeah, just the two of us, though, really.
00:26:00Okay, wonderful. What song?
00:26:01Art is calling for me.
00:26:03Is this a radio song or is this a...?
00:26:07It is. It's kind of...
00:26:08It's from an operetta.
00:26:08It's like an operetta.
00:26:09Oh, okay, okay.
00:26:10It's by Victor Herbert.
00:26:12Well, how wonderful.
00:26:13How wonderful.
00:26:16Okay, what are you going to play there? What have you got?
00:26:18I have a trumpet.
00:26:20No, this flute.
00:26:21I like you. I was worried for a second there.
00:26:25I think the flute... Is this a first?
00:26:27Have we seen someone play flute?
00:26:29Oh, maybe.
00:26:29Not since an American Pie movie.
00:26:31American Pie, yeah.
00:26:32And what's the age difference, Amalia, between you and your brother?
00:26:35So I'm 15 and he's 19.
00:26:37You're 15?
00:26:38Yes.
00:26:39Oh, you're a baby.
00:26:40Wow.
00:26:41So he's your big brother?
00:26:42He's my big brother.
00:26:44This is your moment, so you take as much time as you need.
00:26:47And we're ready, yeah?
00:26:48Whenever you're ready.
00:26:49Or when you're ready, okay?
00:27:02Mama is a queen and Papa is a king
00:27:06So I am a princess and I know it
00:27:09But court etiquette is a adultery thing
00:27:14I just hate it all and I shout
00:27:19To sing on the stage
00:27:23That's the one life for me
00:27:25I'd be a success that I do know
00:27:29And Mama, I'd ask if I once sang in Faust
00:27:34That a brrrr so charming boy
00:27:38Guno
00:27:39Guno
00:27:40You know
00:27:42You know what?
00:28:00That's what I'm dying for
00:28:02That's what I'm sighing for
00:28:04That is falling
00:28:15For me
00:28:17Help me
00:28:37What am I going to do with that?
00:28:39And that has a place on stage
00:28:42Look, if I paid $12 at lunchtime to sit in a theatre and watch opera
00:28:46That would be spectacular
00:28:48But that is
00:28:49You're in the wrong place
00:28:50It was so good
00:28:52That was so entertaining, yeah?
00:28:53Thank you
00:28:53Like that
00:28:55That is not an easy thing to do
00:28:57Even with your acting through it
00:28:59And oh man
00:29:00I enjoyed every second of that
00:29:02That was so, so brilliant
00:29:04I'm very glad
00:29:05Yeah
00:29:05Thank you
00:29:06You know, you've got a beautiful operatic voice
00:29:08But you know, look
00:29:09I did study opera as a kid
00:29:10I used to say to God
00:29:12Please make me a college hero
00:29:13I just want to sing those high notes
00:29:15You're a beautiful
00:29:15You want to be a common chero?
00:29:17No
00:29:17You're going to need a different jacket
00:29:20Okay, I think we've goo-gooed and ga-gaed enough
00:29:22Over someone and a group of people
00:29:24That we're never going to do anything with
00:29:26I'm goo-goo-ga-ing
00:29:27And I'm going to say no
00:29:29It's not really something that
00:29:31Will probably go very far
00:29:32In this competition
00:29:33I really appreciated that performance
00:29:36I can't speak for my colleague
00:29:37But, you know
00:29:39That's all that matters
00:29:40Thank you very much
00:29:41It's a no for me
00:29:41But I appreciate what you just did
00:29:43Thank you, guys
00:29:44Thank you, bye-bye
00:29:45She's funny
00:29:45Good luck, Amelia
00:29:46Excellent work
00:29:47Thank you, guys
00:29:48Well done
00:29:49These are a few of my favourite things
00:29:52There he is
00:29:53I simply remember
00:29:55My favourite things
00:29:56And then I don't feel so bad
00:30:01Okay
00:30:01Don't hear that
00:30:02It'll ruin
00:30:03Millions of dollars of marketing
00:30:04Everyone got that, right?
00:30:06Still to come
00:30:07Sophie struggles to pick a song
00:30:10To show the artist she really is
00:30:12It is a massive curb wall
00:30:13But I understand what Carl was trying to say
00:30:17I feel like I look different to what I was singing
00:30:19Can Ricky's advice help her
00:30:21In the biggest decision of her life?
00:30:24There's a way that we can use your
00:30:27Jazzy, sassy, young, fresh
00:30:31But do you know
00:30:32I heard an amazing version
00:30:34Have you ever done Tainted Love?
00:30:37So is Tainted Love something that you've done?
00:30:39Yeah
00:30:40Yeah
00:30:41Do you think you can
00:30:42I could, yeah
00:30:43Sink your teeth into it
00:30:44I think it'd be like a good song to do
00:30:47Yeah, we can do something with this for sure
00:30:49Yeah
00:30:50Alright, well do you want to maybe
00:30:51We'll get the music team to maybe
00:30:53Someone can play on the piano
00:30:55And you can have a little play
00:30:56That'd be perfect
00:30:57Okay
00:30:57Okay, let's go
00:30:58Let's do this
00:30:59Tainted Love
00:31:01Tainted Love
00:31:02Sometimes
00:31:02Sometimes
00:31:03Sometimes
00:31:04I feel I've got to
00:31:06Run away
00:31:08Nice
00:31:09Nice
00:31:09Yeah, I like that
00:31:11Get away
00:31:11Yeah
00:31:14But first
00:31:16Does this data analyst
00:31:17Have what it takes
00:31:18To win Australian Idol
00:31:20Thank you, Michael
00:31:22Wow
00:31:24And one barber
00:31:25From Ballarat
00:31:28Really?
00:31:29Are you going to say yes
00:31:29With that lacklustre audition?
00:31:32Divides the judges
00:31:34But there was a lot
00:31:35We just went through the whole thing
00:31:36He's got style
00:31:37He's got a really cool voice
00:31:38Yeah, but I've got style
00:31:39And I've got a good voice too
00:31:56One thing I've learnt about Idol
00:31:58Is that every singer
00:31:59Approaches their audition
00:32:00In their own unique way
00:32:01Some focus on the singing
00:32:03Others like to show off
00:32:04Their personality
00:32:05And then there are those
00:32:07Who are all about the look
00:32:09Hi
00:32:10How are you guys?
00:32:11Very well
00:32:12How are you going?
00:32:13Hi
00:32:14Wow, you look incredible
00:32:15Don't you look lovely?
00:32:18Next top model auditions
00:32:20In the next studio
00:32:21I think for me
00:32:22You know
00:32:23When someone walks in
00:32:24And they look amazing
00:32:25And they come in confident
00:32:27Hello
00:32:28How are you?
00:32:29And they stand there
00:32:30And they open their mouth
00:32:31And then
00:32:33I am not a fighter
00:32:36Before this fight is over
00:32:39They suck
00:32:41You'll know my name
00:32:43Before I go home
00:32:46It just isn't quite there
00:32:48Yeah
00:32:49So it's a no from me
00:32:50Thank you Jamie
00:32:51Thank you though
00:32:52That's okay
00:32:52Bye Dahl
00:32:53Thank you
00:32:54God is good
00:32:56And yeah
00:32:57Yeah
00:32:58Come on
00:32:59Yeah, yeah, yeah
00:33:01What if God was one of us
00:33:05What if he was?
00:33:07Call me on my cell phone
00:33:10Late night when you need my love
00:33:13Oh, bro
00:33:14I can't
00:33:15I have to do this
00:33:17It's very rarely done
00:33:19You're a strappin' bloke
00:33:20But man
00:33:21That showed everything
00:33:22That this show is not
00:33:23Not
00:33:24Yeah
00:33:26Obviously
00:33:26You're a good looking young man
00:33:28With no future in singing
00:33:29You seem to know what it should be
00:33:32But I'm not sure you actually
00:33:34Got to where you need to be
00:33:37Today
00:33:37It's going to be a no from me
00:33:39I wish I could sing it again
00:33:40It's a no from me as well
00:33:42Thank you
00:33:43Thank you guys
00:33:43Nice to meet you
00:33:44Nice to meet you
00:33:45It's the idle illusion
00:33:46They look like they could be
00:33:47On the cover of Rolling Stone
00:33:48But then they just don't sound the part
00:33:52Good looking man
00:33:54What's your name?
00:33:55My name's Harry Lamb
00:33:56Harry Lamb
00:33:57Where are you from, Harry Lamb?
00:33:58I'm from Ballarat
00:33:59Ballarat?
00:34:01Yeah, regional Victoria
00:34:02Yeah, I know exactly where Ballarat is
00:34:05Harry Lamb from Ballarat
00:34:06What do you do there?
00:34:08I have a barber shop in Ballarat
00:34:10So I cut hair through the week
00:34:11Oh, wow
00:34:11And then play gigs on the weekend
00:34:23I've been cutting hair for eight years now
00:34:27What are we thinking today, man?
00:34:28A bit of a melody sort of vibe
00:34:30Worked really hard at building a bit of a music career for myself
00:34:34I really enjoy doing both
00:34:35It's more just trying to find the hours in the day sometimes
00:34:38I really do love both
00:34:39But I'd say music probably comes out on top for me
00:34:43It's definitely something that I
00:34:46See myself doing forever
00:34:47Anyway
00:34:48Yeah
00:34:54Harry Lamb, the barber from Ballarat
00:34:56The barber from Ballarat
00:34:57What are we going to sing today then?
00:34:59I'm doing Eye of the Tiger by Survivor
00:35:01Oh, that's a good old song, man
00:35:03And have you kicked it up a notch here?
00:35:05Are we going to
00:35:05I've kind of pulled it back the other way
00:35:08It's a little bit more folky
00:35:09Okay, great
00:35:09Yeah, a bit more strips
00:35:11And that's sort of a record
00:35:12That folky vibe is what you'd do if you got through this?
00:35:15For sure, yeah
00:35:16I definitely play a lot more folky sort of stuff
00:35:18Okay, I'm excited
00:35:20Awesome
00:35:21All right
00:35:22Harry Lamb from Ballarat
00:35:23Looking forward to seeing what you've got, man
00:35:25Good luck
00:35:26Thank you, cheers
00:35:26When you're ready
00:35:40Rising up
00:35:42Back on the street
00:35:44Took my time
00:35:46Took my chances
00:35:49When the distance
00:35:51Now I'm back on my feet
00:35:53To fight
00:35:54Will to survive
00:35:58So many times
00:36:00It happens so fast
00:36:02Change your time
00:36:04And for glory
00:36:07Don't lose your kisses
00:36:09And fight on the feet
00:36:13I'm alive
00:36:17He forgot the words, didn't he?
00:36:19It's the Eye of the Tiger
00:36:20It's the thrill of the fight
00:36:22Rising on to the challenge of our rivals
00:36:27And the last known survivor
00:36:30Stalks his prey in the night
00:36:32And he's watching his soul through the eyes
00:36:38Of a tiger
00:36:44The Eye of the Tiger
00:36:53The Eye of the Tiger
00:36:56The Eye of the Tiger
00:36:57The Eye of the Tiger
00:37:02Oh, look at you little shy country boy
00:37:06How'd that feel, Harry?
00:37:08A little bit, I've mucked up the words a bit
00:37:09Do you have them on your guitar?
00:37:12I've got them written on my arm
00:37:15I've done that before on the top of the guitar
00:37:17I could tell, like, obviously
00:37:19There were some times where
00:37:21You lost the lyrics or whatever
00:37:22But the best thing about it was
00:37:24You didn't go, ah, crap
00:37:25You didn't stop
00:37:26Got to start again
00:37:27You know what I mean?
00:37:28Like you were
00:37:28For sure
00:37:28You just powered through it
00:37:30Which is professional
00:37:31Awesome
00:37:32It wasn't the best audition
00:37:33Yeah
00:37:34Because of that
00:37:35But still
00:37:38There's promise
00:37:39Thank you
00:37:40And
00:37:42I'm going to say yes
00:37:43Thank you
00:37:45Really?
00:37:46You're going to say yes
00:37:46With that lacklustre audition?
00:37:49Without what?
00:37:50There was a lot of good stuff in there
00:37:51But there was a lot
00:37:52We just went through the whole thing
00:37:53He's got style
00:37:53He's got a really cool voice
00:37:55Yeah, but I've got style
00:37:56And I've got a good voice too
00:37:58Yeah, you won't be able to write
00:37:59These performances on your arm
00:38:01You're going to walk out of here
00:38:02Looking like a bikey
00:38:03And
00:38:04It's just
00:38:05Not going to be good enough
00:38:07For me to give you a yes
00:38:10So
00:38:11I'm going to be very honest with you
00:38:13You're great eye candy
00:38:15You look very, very good
00:38:17Thank you
00:38:18You're welcome
00:38:18I mean, look
00:38:19She just likes the hard-hitting question
00:38:21What I'm trying to say to you is
00:38:23You know
00:38:23You're compelling
00:38:24To look at
00:38:26But you looked at the floor
00:38:28You look at the lights
00:38:29You look
00:38:30Look at your audience
00:38:32Yeah
00:38:32Give something of yourself
00:38:34Okay
00:38:35You've got to learn
00:38:36Not to go in
00:38:38Because nobody else can go in there
00:38:39But you
00:38:40Yeah
00:38:40You have to give something of yourself
00:38:43That was an okay audition
00:38:47But that was a performance
00:38:49That I think you could really build upon
00:38:50For sure
00:38:52I can see you've got potential
00:38:55I think I'd say yes
00:38:56It's a yes from me
00:38:58Thank you so much
00:38:59I really appreciate that
00:39:00And I appreciate the advice
00:39:01Next time we see you
00:39:02We'll be handing out golden tickets
00:39:03You either get one
00:39:05Or you don't
00:39:05Thank you
00:39:06You're welcome
00:39:07Lots to work on
00:39:07Nice work, Harry
00:39:08Thank you so much
00:39:09We'll see you later on
00:39:10Bye bye
00:39:11Thank you
00:39:11It's put me on
00:39:12You know
00:39:12On edge a little bit
00:39:13I'm not super comfortable
00:39:14But I got through
00:39:15So I'm happy with that
00:39:18Hi
00:39:19Hello
00:39:20How'd you go?
00:39:21It was okay
00:39:22Definitely wasn't my best performance
00:39:24Oh really?
00:39:26They said they saw the potential
00:39:27So two yeses
00:39:28We're on
00:39:29Yeah
00:39:29Go celebrate
00:39:30Congratulations
00:39:30Thank you
00:39:33The tension in the waiting room
00:39:35Now builds
00:39:36As Harry joins Kesha and Trey
00:39:39In the running for a golden ticket
00:39:46As audition day five kicks on
00:39:48And hundreds of hopefuls
00:39:50Still to see our judges

00:40:16Get ready for Amy Cam
00:40:17She thinks she's the next Spielberg
00:40:20Oh no
00:40:21I forgot my latte was on the lid
00:40:24Espresso Macchiato
00:40:25We're back at behind the scenes
00:40:27And Kyle's just spilt
00:40:28Ah, coffee everywhere
00:40:29It's chaos
00:40:30Look at that mess
00:40:32One minute we're all judging
00:40:33Next minute Amy's doing her own filming
00:40:36That's your last coffee, Kyle?
00:40:38No, I've already ordered another one
00:40:39Here we go
00:40:41Here we go

00:40:43Espresso Macchiato
00:40:45Gotta go

00:40:51Our next singer hoping to outshine the competition
00:40:54Is Victorian Michael
00:40:56I'm a data analyst
00:40:58So taking raw data
00:41:00And trying to present it in creative ways
00:41:03But I definitely present differently
00:41:05When I'm performing
00:41:10I'm very excited to show Australia
00:41:12What Michael K can do
00:41:14It could be a life-changing moment
00:41:16We'll say it right here
00:41:16This could be one of those moments
00:41:20I've always dreamed of being the next Australian Idol
00:41:23I think out of all the judges
00:41:24Kyle comes across as scary
00:41:27So I'm like, if you like it
00:41:28I did something really well
00:41:30Let's go
00:41:31We got this
00:41:40Hello there
00:41:42Hello
00:41:42Hey, hi mate

00:41:44I'm good, thank you
00:41:45How are we?
00:41:45Great
00:41:46Loving the outfit
00:41:46Loving the do-rag
00:41:47Good
00:41:48You knew what it was
00:41:49Good looking man
00:41:50Good looking man
00:41:51What do you do?
00:41:52What's your name?

00:41:53I'm 29 from Melbourne
00:41:55And I'm a data analyst
00:41:56A do-rag
00:41:57We're a data analyst
00:41:58That is not
00:41:59When I pitch a data analyst
00:42:01That's not what I pitch a
00:42:02Data analyst by day
00:42:04Switch it up at night
00:42:05You know it, right?
00:42:06I'm Michael K the artist
00:42:07Oh, you've got a whole show
00:42:08So you perform?
00:42:09Absolutely, yes
00:42:10Yes, honey
00:42:11So what are you going to sing today, man?
00:42:13Today I'm going to be bringing you
00:42:14Waterfalls by TLC
00:42:15One of my favorite songs
00:42:16Great track
00:42:17You know that's a deep song too
00:42:19It's a deep song
00:42:20Yeah, baby
00:42:21Is there a reason why that one?
00:42:23It was the first song
00:42:24I actually ever learned to rap to
00:42:26When I used to just sing
00:42:27And then I was like
00:42:29Let me try to learn to rap
00:42:30And something about left eye
00:42:32Oh, yeah
00:42:33Walked me into that
00:42:34Okay, Michael
00:42:36Can't wait to see what you've got
00:42:37Very excited
00:42:37Take your time
00:42:39And show us what you've got
00:42:40Thank you
00:42:41Hope you enjoy it
00:42:42Thank you
00:42:52A lonely mother
00:42:54Gazing out of the window
00:42:56Staring out a song
00:42:58That she just can't touch
00:43:00And if at any time
00:43:03He's in a jail
00:43:04She'll be by his side
00:43:06But he doesn't realize
00:43:09He hurts us so much
00:43:13But all the praying
00:43:15Just ain't helping at all
00:43:17Another body laying cold
00:43:20And look up
00:43:21Listen to me
00:43:23Don't go chasing waterfalls
00:43:27Please stick to the rivers
00:43:30And the lakes that you're used to
00:43:32I know that you're gonna have it going
00:43:36Nothing at all
00:43:38But I think you're moving too fast
00:43:43Oh, come on
00:43:45I seen a rainbow yesterday
00:43:46But too many storms
00:43:48How come I don't even a trace
00:43:49And not one God-given ray
00:43:50Is it because my life is ten shades away
00:43:52Pray on ten fade away
00:43:54You saw the praising for the sun
00:43:55Didn't expect the rap, man.
00:43:56That's great.
00:43:57He came in smooth with it
00:43:58Yeah
00:43:59Chances I blew
00:43:59To bring my life to a new
00:44:01Clear blue and unconditional skies
00:44:03I drive the tears from my eyes
00:44:04No more lonely cries
00:44:05Don't go chasing waterfalls
00:44:10Please stick to the rivers
00:44:12And the lakes that you're used to
00:44:15I know that you're gonna
00:44:17Have it going on nothing at all
00:44:20But I think you're moving too fast
00:44:23Oh, oh
00:44:25You're moving too fast
00:44:28Yeah
00:44:31Thank you, Michael.
00:44:34Some serious riz there.
00:44:36I loved it.
00:44:40Thank the Lord.
00:44:41This is great.
00:44:41You know, Kyle, this is my brother from another mother.
00:44:44A little bit cozy.
00:44:46I love that.
00:44:47That's right up your alley.
00:44:48That is so great.
00:44:49You've just got a great vibe, a great energy, a great look, a great sound.
00:44:54Yeah, cool rap sound too.
00:44:56Not everyone has that.
00:44:57No.
00:44:58Like when some, a lot of people can sing and then they go into the rap and it's just like,
00:45:02oh, a bit jarring.
00:45:03But that's, that was just flowed, man.
00:45:06That was really cool.
00:45:07And I love your fit.
00:45:08I love that you know who you are.
00:45:10Um, that was cool.
00:45:12Yeah.
00:45:12Masha?
00:45:13Michael, I'm going to say just a couple things for you.
00:45:15You sort of faulted here and there on some of your notes.
00:45:18That's forgivable.
00:45:19Okay?
00:45:21But, listen to when you're listening to a track, don't rush yourself in it, just try and sit in it
00:45:26a bit more.
00:45:28Otherwise, I think you did a sterling, a great job.
00:45:30That's some great advice.
00:45:31I'll take that.
00:45:32I'm going to give you your first yes.
00:45:35You need two out of three at least.
00:45:36Well, I'll, I'll give you the second yes.
00:45:38Oh.
00:45:39Hey, it's a yes from me too.
00:45:42Really yes it?
00:45:42Yeah.
00:45:43Brilliant.
00:45:44We'll see you when we hand our golden tickets.
00:45:46The next mission for you is to walk out of here with a golden ticket this afternoon.
00:45:51I appreciate it.
00:45:51Good luck, man.
00:45:52Hopefully I see you with a golden ticket.
00:45:55Well done, Michael.
00:45:56Thank you so much.
00:45:57That was just really, really great.
00:45:58Lovely meeting y'all.
00:45:59That was good.
00:46:03How did you go?
00:46:04How did you go?
00:46:05How did you go?
00:46:06Three yeses!
00:46:08Oh!
00:46:10I'm just trying to lose.
00:46:12Oh, I can't help it.
00:46:13Really?
00:46:14That's what I was trying to impress.
00:46:15Really?
00:46:17Next.
00:46:18I never do this.
00:46:19Ever.
00:46:20You're coming back to re-audition with a new song.
00:46:24As her second shot at auditioning approaches, time is running out for Sophie.
00:46:29Just these lyrics.
00:46:31You know them.
00:46:32Yeah, I know.
00:46:33I don't know why.
00:46:33I just want to play.
00:46:35I know a lot of people don't get a second chance.
00:46:37So this has to be the best performance of my whole life.
00:46:40Will Sophie get redemption?
00:46:42I'm worried, but it's fine.
00:46:44It's fine.
00:46:44Or will it have all been for nothing?
00:46:47And later, Kyle goes into uncharted waters.
00:46:51Just up here on our 9 o'clock, that's where the Navy base is.
00:46:55To do what no judge has done before.
00:46:58But will it be enough to convince Kyle?
00:47:01No.
00:47:01But you think you're ready.
00:47:03I'm ready.
00:47:03But do I think you're ready?
00:47:08Wow.
00:47:10And later.
00:47:11It brings me no joy to make it any more difficult than it already is.
00:47:17The golden ticket is going to be awarded to...
00:47:39Wish me luck.
00:47:41This year, we have traveled further than ever before to find the diamonds in the rough.
00:47:46We are auditioning singers for Australian Idol.
00:47:49How was that, guys?
00:47:51Give it up for Riley, everyone.
00:47:53Our judges have found outstanding singers who have earned their spot in the top 30.
00:48:00But that doesn't mean the hunt is over.
00:48:03Kyle is on a mission to find the next Australian Idol.
00:48:07So I'm going to jump on the little rubber ducky and we're going to stealth it into the Navy base.
00:48:13Jump on board and look for this woman, a Navy officer that apparently is an angelic singer.
00:48:22My name is leading seaman Maddie Lee.
00:48:24I'm 27 years old and I'm a maritime personnel operator of the Royal Australian Navy.
00:48:29I've been in for eight and a half years now and I'm really proud to be wearing this uniform every
00:48:34day as a serving member.
00:48:35It's definitely been challenging, but I have loved every minute of it.
00:48:40Five minutes to eight o'clock, sir.
00:48:41Very good.
00:48:42I'm always singing around the ship and it definitely helps me get through all those tough times.
00:48:49It has helped me get through a lot of my long deployments and being away.
00:48:53It really helps me get through my day.
00:48:57Hey, guys.
00:48:59Oh, oh, I get the Navy gear.
00:49:01Oh, this is fantastic.
00:49:04Wish me luck.
00:49:09We're away.
00:49:13Just up here on our nine o'clock.
00:49:15That's where the Navy base is.
00:49:17So we're going to swing into the nine.
00:49:19We're going to sneak on board.
00:49:29I'm pretty excited about it.
00:49:30I've never been on a naval ship.
00:49:32Oh, it's exciting.
00:49:34I've done deep sea fishing.
00:49:35It's about as close as it gets.
00:49:37Thank you, guys.
00:49:39The best.
00:49:47Captain.
00:49:49How are you, sir?
00:49:50Do I salute?
00:49:50All right.
00:49:51Nice to meet you.
00:49:52Oh, oh.
00:49:53Am I allowed to push any of these buttons?
00:49:56And what does that do?
00:49:58Oh, my Lord.
00:50:00I think I've started a war.
00:50:03Sorry.
00:50:07Rid, please.
00:50:10Yes, please.
00:50:17Leading Seaman Lee.
00:50:20Hello.
00:50:21How are you?
00:50:23I'm good.
00:50:24I'm Captain Kyle.
00:50:25Oh, Captain Kyle.
00:50:25Nice to meet you.
00:50:26Sorry, the real captain's over there.
00:50:27They said you're quite the singer.
00:50:29Is that right?
00:50:29I am.
00:50:30Everyone from the captain to right down said you are Australia's greatest naval singer.
00:50:36But you're exactly what we're looking for.
00:50:38Amazing.
00:50:39And I thought while we're here now, might as well audition here in front of everyone.
00:50:43Right now.
00:50:45What is going on?
00:50:50I'm in shock.
00:50:51I'm sick.
00:50:51I'm still shaking.
00:50:56Just take a second because there's a few people that have gathered.
00:50:59Oh, okay.
00:51:00Just to show you some support.
00:51:03You've got all your friends on the ship here.
00:51:04And you've got your own Navy band.
00:51:06Let's go down.
00:51:07Let's go down, everyone.
00:51:24I'm so nervous now.
00:51:27But I'm ready.
00:51:28I'm ready.
00:51:28This is my time now.
00:51:30I'm ready to go.
00:51:55I'm ready.
00:51:57I'm ready.
00:51:58I'm ready.
00:51:59I'm ready.
00:52:06I'm ready.
00:52:10I'm ready.
00:52:13I'm ready.
00:52:21I'm ready.
00:52:33I'm ready.
00:52:38I'm ready.
00:52:41I'm ready.
00:52:45I'm ready.
00:52:50I'm ready.
00:53:01I'm ready.
00:53:06I'm ready.
00:53:11I'm ready.
00:53:16Gotta get up and try, try, try
00:53:22Yeah!
00:53:28Maddie, you did a great job.
00:53:30Your captain wasn't lying.
00:53:32That's fantastic.
00:53:33I'm going to take a couple of minutes
00:53:35and we'll let you guys know
00:53:36whether we're going to take her on the idle journey.
00:53:39I'm pretty nervous, but I felt good in the end.
00:53:41Yeah, I think I got into the groove of it
00:53:43once it really picked up, so...
00:53:45Yeah, I'm a bit nervous, though.
00:53:47I really want him to say yes.
00:53:50You've got all your family out here
00:53:51that came out to watch you.
00:53:52Yeah.
00:53:53They're supposed to be doing some sort of work right now, aren't they?
00:53:56Yeah, this is work.
00:53:57What would you be doing if you weren't here?
00:53:58I'd be in my office right now.
00:54:00Right.
00:54:01Would you put this part of your career on hold
00:54:03for the chance to hit the Australian Idol stage?
00:54:06And should I even ask you to do that?
00:54:08You know what I mean?
00:54:09Like, this is a lot of difficulty.
00:54:11I'm ready to take that next step.
00:54:13Music is my passion.
00:54:14But you think you're ready.
00:54:14I'm ready.
00:54:15Do I think you're ready?
00:54:24I'd like to officially bring you back to Idol HQ
00:54:28and you'll either get a golden ticket
00:54:30or you won't get one.
00:54:31Oh, my God.
00:54:32Are you in?
00:54:33Yes.
00:54:33You're in.
00:54:34She's coming with me, everyone.
00:54:36She's coming with us.
00:54:38Yeah!
00:54:42Good luck, you guys.
00:54:43You'll have to defend the country on your own.
00:54:45I'm taking this one to Idol headquarters.
00:54:48Bye, everyone.
00:55:12Wow.
00:55:14So much.
00:55:15I've been waiting for this for such a long time.
00:55:19And it's finally happening.
00:55:23Oh, my God.
00:55:27Oh.
00:55:30Coming up, it's Sophie's moment of truth.
00:55:34As I said before, we don't let anyone do it again.
00:55:38Can she deliver when it counts?
00:55:43Then, a final judgment face-off.
00:55:47This is a numbers game and we can only choose one of you.
00:55:51But who will get a golden ticket?
00:55:53The singer that we are giving the golden ticket to will be...
00:56:13With five singers in the waiting room,
00:56:16our next hopeful wants to be number six.
00:56:25And he's come all the way from the Apple Isle to make it happen.
00:56:29I'm Jacob.
00:56:30I'm 20.
00:56:31I'm from Exeter, just outside of Launceston in Tasmania.
00:56:38You don't really expect a hip-hop artist to be living out in the country like this.
00:56:42We've got chickens, we've got ducks, we've got sheep.
00:56:45They're the ducks.
00:56:46They're actually my favourite animal.
00:56:49We didn't come from a lot.
00:56:50We still, like, obviously had a roof over our heads and food to eat and stuff like that.
00:56:55So, for me, hip-hop is just a way to escape reality.
00:57:02It's about true struggles and stuff in your life.
00:57:05I can relate to that.
00:57:07When I was a younger teenager, I started getting into, you know,
00:57:11hanging around the wrong people, getting into the wrong sort of things like that.
00:57:15The only thing that pulled me out of that sort of rut was hip-hop.
00:57:19Hip-hop, for me, definitely saved my life.
00:57:22My music represents passion, drive, and love for music, to be honest.
00:57:27That's my dream, being able to do what I love.
00:57:30If you ever leave, I hope that you learn.
00:57:34Tell me this is all for nothing.
00:57:36Who do we have here?
00:57:38I'm Jacob.
00:57:39Jacob, where are you from?
00:57:41I'm from Exeter in Tasmania.
00:57:43You're a Tassie boy.
00:57:44Yeah.
00:57:45Okay, where on the map?
00:57:47North Tasmania.
00:57:49Northern tip of Tasmania.
00:57:51Yeah, nearly the tip.
00:57:51Just down the river, so.
00:57:53So, what kind of artist are you, Jacob, or would you want to be?
00:57:56I'm like a mix between hip-hop and, I'll tell you, pop.
00:58:01Sort of like, you know, like Kid LaRoy, Juice WRLD, that sort of style.
00:58:05Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:58:05When you listen to Juice WRLD and Kid LaRoy, it's like, it's so melodic.
00:58:09Yeah, and I like it because it's so raw.
00:58:11It's emotional.
00:58:12Yeah, it is angst.
00:58:14Yeah.
00:58:14Thrown out in artistry.
00:58:16Yeah, exactly.
00:58:17What are you going to do today?
00:58:18I'm going to sing a rendition of Seven Years by Lucas Graham,
00:58:23and it's a hip-hop remix.
00:58:24Cool.
00:58:25Nice.
00:58:27When you're ready, mate, take your time.
00:58:29No stress.
00:58:30Yeah.
00:58:30We want you to do well.
00:58:31Awesome.
00:58:32No worries, man.
00:58:39Once I was seven years old, my mom had told me to make you so some friends,
00:58:46you'll be lonely.
00:58:47Once I was seven years old.
00:58:53As a youngin', I just wanted to be famous.
00:58:56Hop, pow, pop, pow, what you're sayin'?
00:58:57I was jimmin' on the biggest of the stages, singin' to the wiggles, I was tested for the greatness.
00:59:02It was just me, my guitar, singin' to my family, sayin' I'd go far.
00:59:05Jimmin' on the Jets and the Lamborghini cars, I was runnin' for the hills, tryin' to look out at the
00:59:09park.
00:59:10All of these bullies came through, yellin' in the crowd, all they ever say is boo.
00:59:13I was tryin' to figure out what the hell I'd do, then I got it in the mood, then I
00:59:16should just stop and move.
00:59:17I didn't want to move, but I had to.
00:59:22I didn't want to move, but I had to.
00:59:25This ADHD has me feelin' so crazy.
00:59:30And I know that it's the only thing that's made me.
00:59:33It's made my name.
00:59:35It's made my name, my.
00:59:37It's made my name.
00:59:39Once I was seven years old, my mom had told me to make you so some friends, you'll be lonely.
00:59:47Once I was seven years old.
00:59:57Bro, I loved it.
01:00:00I was, like, usually rappers, singers, they're really good at one and not so good at the other.
01:00:07And you started singing, and I was like, hey, this guy's a singer.
01:00:11Yeah.
01:00:11And then I thought, so his rapping's gonna be crap, and then it was far from it.
01:00:16I believed it.
01:00:17Now, you're not the best singer we've ever had on this content, by any stretch of the imagination.
01:00:22Yeah.
01:00:22But I ate it up.
01:00:24I believed it.
01:00:25It was raw.
01:00:26It was very real.
01:00:28It's your life in art.
01:00:29Yeah.
01:00:58And I loved it.
01:00:59Three yeses.
01:01:00Thank you so much.
01:01:01Three yeses.
01:01:02Bro, now it's up to you.
01:01:04Yep.
01:01:05I don't know the future, but golden ticket's the next thing you need to try and walk away
01:01:09with.
01:01:10Yep.
01:01:10Good on you, man.
01:01:11I'll come back for it.
01:01:12Jacob.
01:01:13Awesome.
01:01:14Thank you, guys.
01:01:14We'll call him Mappatazzi for short.
01:01:16Thank you, everybody.
01:01:17No worries, matey.
01:01:18See you, buddy.
01:01:19See ya.
01:01:19You're welcome.
01:01:22I got it.
01:01:26No joke to him.
01:01:28Well done.
01:01:29I'm getting in.
01:01:31Well done.
01:01:33Something about him I really like.
01:01:35He just, like, has his own thing going.
01:01:36That's what I want.
01:01:37It's like, oh, okay.
01:01:38Yeah, yeah.
01:01:39I like it.
01:01:39Yeah, yeah.
01:01:40That's exactly right.
01:01:41Yeah.
01:01:41I liked him.
01:01:46Hey, hello.
01:01:47Hello.
01:01:48What's up, brother?
01:01:49I like that a lot.
01:01:50I really like that.
01:01:51That was cool.
01:01:51Yeah.
01:01:52From Jacob.
01:01:53How's it going, brother?
01:01:54Trey.
01:01:55Jacob, charging you up to the scene as another rapper.
01:01:57This is really putting Trey and Michael on notice.
01:02:01Last one, everyone.
01:02:03Good luck, everybody.
01:02:05The last remaining hopeful is Melbourne model Sophie,
01:02:09who struggled to let her personality shine earlier today.
01:02:13I didn't expect a young, beautiful girl to come in and sing old,
01:02:17sad lady songs.
01:02:19And in a rare twist, we'll re-audition with a new song.
01:02:25Can I hit you the audition, right?
01:02:26Okay, cool.
01:02:27I'm really passionate about this and I want this so bad,
01:02:29so I think it's about just, like, focusing in now
01:02:32and, like, really trying to impress them this time.
01:02:34I feel like I can't lack, you know?
01:02:35So I've got to lock in.
01:02:38Oh, hey, Sophie.
01:02:39Welcome back.
01:02:40I'm back.
01:02:40Oh, my God.
01:02:41Now, as I said before, we don't let anyone do it again.
01:02:45But we gave you a little challenge to come up with something new
01:02:48that actually shows us who you are.
01:02:51What have you chosen?
01:02:52We've got Tainted Love.
01:02:54Oh.
01:02:55Nice.
01:02:57Whenever you're ready.
01:02:57When you're ready, okay?
01:03:09Sometimes I feel I've got to run away.
01:03:14I've got to get away from the pain you drive into the heart of me.
01:03:21The love we share seems to go nowhere
01:03:25For I've lost my light
01:03:28Now I've told you...
01:03:30Amazing stage presence.
01:03:33What's I ran for you?
01:03:35Oh.
01:03:35Now I want from you
01:03:37Just Tainted Love you give and I give you all the girl can give you
01:03:43Take my tears and that's not nearly all
01:03:47Tainted Love, whoa, Tainted Love
01:03:50So don't touch me, please
01:03:53I cannot stand the way you see
01:03:56I love you but you hurt me so
01:03:58Now I've got to back my things and go
01:04:02There it is.
01:04:03What's I ran for you?
01:04:05Now I want from you
01:04:07Just Tainted Love you give and I give you all the girl can give you
01:04:13Let my tears and that's not nearly all
01:04:16Tainted Love, whoa, Tainted Love
01:04:50Don't touch me, please
01:04:50Don't touch me without your performance level if you get through to this
01:04:53You know what I mean?
01:04:53Like I think there's a lot there
01:04:55You're sassy, you're sexy
01:04:57You know, and you've got a voice
01:04:59Maybe I've enjoyed her that much that maybe we should get her to come back and sing a third song
01:05:02just to be short
01:05:06That energy was just like so effortless for you
01:05:10Thank you
01:05:10Like and that's really hard for a lot of artists to just you know walk around and execute a performance
01:05:16like that
01:05:16I felt what Kyle felt like there was just something else in you that I felt like you restraining
01:05:23But I'm so glad we got to see that because wow what are we gonna see down the line is
01:05:29what I'm thinking so I'm gonna start it with a yes
01:05:31Thank you
01:05:34I will give you your second yes
01:05:37Thank you Kyle
01:05:38I'll give you a yes, well done darling
01:05:40Well done because that wouldn't have been easy to do
01:05:42Oh, I appreciate you so much
01:05:44Next time we see you we'll be handing out golden tickets to people that will go through to the next
01:05:49round
01:05:49Okay, cool
01:06:00The suspense
01:06:09I'm feeling super grateful. I think this is just motivation to keep going through the next few rounds
01:06:21I'm sorry finish right Harry loving train. Hi. Yeah, I really want that gold a ticket and I'll do anything
01:06:26it takes to get it
01:06:29With seven incredible singers in the waiting room we have some of the toughest head-to-heads yet
01:06:37Whose idle dream continues? I don't want to drag this out any longer and whose dream is over the golden
01:06:45ticket
01:06:46Is going to be awarded
01:06:48to
01:06:56As the Sun sets on day five of auditions
01:06:59It's time to get down to business and uncover the next Australian Idol
01:07:04With 17 golden tickets already gone our hopefuls are beginning to feel the competition
01:07:12I know that like we're probably not all gonna get a ticket
01:07:15The talents look unreal
01:07:17Everyone's such a different style
01:07:19Obviously, you know nervous to go up against them
01:07:22There's a few similar artists in my group
01:07:25So I am pretty scared
01:07:27But music is my one and only passion. I need this
01:07:36This would probably be a very tough one because they're all pretty good. Yeah
01:07:40This guy he's fantastic. He was like a swaggy guy down there. He was good too. I like this guy's
01:07:45vibe
01:07:46She was amazing
01:07:48I mean this is hard
01:07:50I went down to the Sydney naval yards where I found this young naval girl Maddy
01:07:58Oh, okay cool
01:08:01I've only met Kyle
01:08:02But Marsha and Amy there's some big names. I'm definitely humped. I'm a bit nervous
01:08:08All right, let's bring them in
01:08:10First up representing R&B and hip-hop its young dad Trey data analyst Michael and small town Tassie artist
01:08:20Jacob
01:08:21I'm doing this for my wife my daughters
01:08:24I want to show my girls that anything is possible when you chase after your dreams
01:08:29So this is definitely a huge step
01:08:32Moving away from just being a data analyst to a musician and that's the dream
01:08:35I feel like we've just scratched the surface of what I can give and we can give more
01:08:41I've come all the way from Tasmania
01:08:43I want to be able to put my entire state on the map. I've worked so hard for it. It's
01:08:49time to come and collect it
01:08:51Ready? Yo. Good luck. Thank you
01:08:59Wow, they're real nervous

01:09:28But this is a numbers game and we can only choose one of you
01:09:33All three of you bring such different flavors to this competition
01:09:38But we always came back to one person
01:09:44And that person
01:09:48Is
01:09:52It's gonna be you Trey

01:11:15Oh sorry sorry
01:11:17Next up to face the judges
01:11:19It's Melbourne model Sophie
01:11:21And Ballarat barber Harry
01:11:27I hope I was able to redeem what Kyle thought I was liking
01:11:30Getting this golden ticket could do a lot with my career
01:11:34But we're probably not all gonna get a ticket
01:11:36In the back of my mind I am thinking about that
01:11:39I am worried that my audition could potentially cost me the golden ticket
01:11:43I was a little bit nervous and that kind of put me on the back foot
01:11:46I'm hoping that they saw through my performance
01:11:49I've got a lot to showcase
01:11:51I'm hoping I can get to do that
01:11:54Hi
01:11:55Hi
01:11:55Hi
01:11:56Oh hello
01:11:56Hello

01:12:02And we've got Harry the barber from Ballarat
01:12:05That's the one
01:12:06Sophie you did the sad old lady song
01:12:09Yep
01:12:10And then we had to get you to come back and zip it up
01:12:12What did you do?
01:12:13Tainted Love
01:12:14I cannot stand the way you see
01:12:17I love you but you hurt me so
01:12:20Now I've got to back my face and go
01:12:23That was good
01:12:25Thank you
01:12:25And Harry you fluffed the lyrics
01:12:27I did
01:12:27Yeah
01:12:28About halfway through
01:12:30But you recuperated
01:12:31And you're watching this all through the eyes
01:12:38Over tiger
01:12:40You've just got to roll with the punches
01:12:42Yes right
01:12:42And you recovered
01:12:43Yeah
01:12:43Thank you
01:12:44It's quite a tough decision with you two as you can imagine
01:12:50You know Idol's about the sound
01:12:53The style
01:12:54And you both definitely have elements of that
01:12:57In what you brought to the table
01:13:00I don't want to drag this out any longer
01:13:03Sophie and Harry
01:13:03It brings me no joy to make it any more difficult than it already is

01:13:13Is going to be awarded

01:14:43right track for that. Bye guys congratulations. Thank you so much. Welcome to the Top 30. Thank you.
01:14:51Last to face the judges is singing skier from Jindabyne Kesha and Kyle's Navy Discovery Maddie.
01:14:59Kyle's seen something in me so I'm really hoping that that's pushed me across the line to get that golden
01:15:05ticket. I want to make myself so proud and the Navy proud.
01:15:09I wouldn't be here today without them so I really need to make them proud.
01:15:16I am hoping I've done enough. Getting in that Top 30 would really reassure me that people have faith in
01:15:23my music.
01:15:24I'm hoping that my performance stands out and they just like what they see.
01:15:29No I've met you but I haven't met you. Hi I'm Maddie. I'm Ricky. Lovely to meet you. So nice
01:15:34to meet you. Where did you audition?
