00:02Last time on Australian Idol.
00:05On your marks, get set!
00:08The overnight challenge got off to a flying start.
00:12Go Asha! Go Asha!
00:13Each group of three singers raced to pick a song.
00:17This is not a bad song.
00:19Which they had to learn in just one very late night.
00:24Oh my gosh, it is 2.30 in the morning.
00:28When we're out.
00:28Before performing to the judges, including idol royalty.
00:33Please welcome to the desk, Jessica Mowboy.
00:37No pressure.
00:39And here we go.
00:42So far, two groups have excelled.
00:45We found love in a hopeless place.
00:49Got one less problem without you.
00:51I got one less, one less problem.
00:54Damn! That was really good.
00:56You nailed it.
00:58Congrats.
00:59You are all through to the next round.
01:02But two have disappointed.
01:04That was very disconnected for me.
01:06You all sang so individually.
01:08The challenge was to work together.
01:10You didn't do that.
01:12Leaving Jamie, Matt, Alita, Sophie and Riley on notice and in danger of going home.
01:20Tonight.
01:21Whoa.
01:23As the remaining groups sing for survival.
01:26Wow.
01:27Now that's what I'm talking about.
01:28Oh.
01:29Haven't heard that all season.
01:30Can the young guns impress?
01:32So much to love about you.
01:35You were a great trio.
01:36Kalani steps up for redemption.
01:39Did someone lose the lyrics?
01:42You can't lose lyrics.
01:44But which group fires up Marsha like you have never seen?
01:50That was truly a car crash.
01:53And Amy takes it one step further.
01:57That was a three-car pilot.
02:00Will your favourite make the cut?
02:02You just looked out of place up there.
02:04You looked nervous.
02:06As three more leave the competition for good.
02:09The challenge just got the better of you today.
02:12And unfortunately you will be leaving idle.
02:22I've got coffee.
02:25Rikki.
02:26Rikki.
02:26Rikki.
02:27Rikki.
02:28Rikki.
02:28Rikki.
02:28I thought maybe you guys might need some of this.
02:31You're the hottest coffee runner I've ever seen in my life.
02:35In our lives.
02:35This is you.
02:36Ice cold.
02:37Ice cold.
02:38Like your soul.
02:42Ice cold baby.
02:43I like it.
02:45How's it going?
02:46It said it's a hit and miss.
02:48You know.
02:49Struggle Street.
02:50Yeah.
02:50I don't know if our mind has been blown just yet.
02:53Is that right in saying that?
02:54Yeah.
02:55Because some have really crashed and burned.
02:57Yeah.
02:57The overnight group challenge really does showcase if they're ready or not.
03:02I'm happy for them that Carl's not here today.
03:05We did say that.
03:07Can you imagine if he was here?
03:08Oh.
03:08Yeah actually.
03:09I think he would have gone home.
03:10You better bring your A game.
03:12Because in this industry you don't get second chances.
03:14I think I've got something up my sleeves coming up.
03:16A little bit of something something.
03:17I've got a little bit of something something coming out right about now.
03:20But I think you're going to be happy.
03:22Please.
03:24First to take to the stage in session two of the overnight group challenge is skier Kesha,
03:31bartender Harriet and landscaper Kalani who was put on notice during the chorus line challenge.
03:38You'll remember me.
03:42Oh f**k.
03:43Kalani.
03:44Pull it together brother.
03:46You're one of our favorites.
03:47Come on.
03:47Kalani.
03:48You're on notice.
03:51You are a talent but you can't do that.
03:55Yeah.
03:57Yeah after being put on notice it was obviously a bit of a downer at the time.
04:05This week has definitely humbled me and taught me some lessons.
04:08Just the days go on it gets more and more important to be here for me.
04:11Now paired up with Kesha and Harriet, Kalani is determined not to be on notice again
04:18and pushed rehearsals until the early hours of the morning.
04:22I don't care when I'm with my baby.
04:26I know the bad things.
04:29Right.
04:30Let's do that again please.
04:32Let's go.
04:32We got this.
04:32One, two.
04:33Come on guys.
04:33Cause I don't care when I'm with my baby.
04:38All the bad things disappear.
04:42Who wants to fit in anyway?
04:45I need water.
04:46Oh my God.
04:47Three.
04:47I don't care.
04:51I think that my concern is my voice being really tired.
04:56I know I'm definitely trying my best to push through and do it.
05:00Being here now is humongous.
05:02Obviously the pressures are on after this week.
05:04Definitely a big deal for me.
05:05And it means a lot.
05:06Well I know the judges are really looking forward to someone coming out and absolutely
05:12blowing their minds.
05:13Is that going to be you?
05:14Okay.
05:14Do our absolute best.
05:16Yeah.
05:16Put our best foot forward.
05:17Yes, yes, yes, yes.
05:18All right.
05:18Well good luck you guys.
05:20Have fun out there.
05:21Cheers guys.
05:24Okay, Kalani, Harriet and Kesha.
05:29G'day.
05:30G'day.
05:31Hello.
05:32How did we go last night?
05:34I think we worked really well together.
05:35We clicked very quickly.
05:37We clicked very quickly.
05:38Had a lot of delirious laughs late at night.
05:41But we worked really well and we're happy with how we sound.
05:44Good.
05:44Good.
05:45What was the song that you ended up grabbing?
05:47The song is I Don't Care.
05:49I do really care but the song is called I Don't Care by Ed Sheeran and Justin Bieber.
05:56Oh, sick.
05:58Okay.
05:59Kalani, you were put on notice.
06:00Yeah.
06:01Do you think you have the lyrics sorted and we're not going to have that meltdown again?
06:05I think we're good.
06:07I think, yeah, I mean, a long night of thinking last night and, you know, I may be a bit
06:15more
06:15tired today but I think I'm more switched on in the sense that I'm going to make this happen.
06:20I need to be here so let's do it.
06:23Okay, guys.
06:24When you're ready.
06:28One, two, three.
06:30Cause I don't care when I'm with my baby, yeah.
06:35All the bad things disappear.
06:38And you're making me feel like baby I am somebody.
06:43I can deal with the bad nights when I'm with my baby, yeah.
06:51Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
06:59Don't think I fit in at this party.
07:06Everyone's got so much to say
07:11I always feel like I'm nobody
07:18Who needs to fit in anyway
07:22Cause I don't care when I'm with my baby
07:27All the bad things disappear
07:31And you're making me feel like maybe I am somebody
07:36I can feel with the bad nights
07:41When I'm with my baby, yeah
07:44When I'm with my baby, yeah
07:57Kalani, how do you think it went?
07:59I couldn't let the nerves get the better of me again
08:01You know, it's too big of an opportunity for me
08:03And yeah, you know, the sleepless night was worth it, I think
08:08You know, if all else fails, you all got a gig together
08:11Because you know what I mean?
08:13You're a great trio
08:15We were actually saying we should book a show before
08:18Yeah, that's what I'm saying, you know
08:19Wow, your voice is blending
08:22Yeah, beautiful tones
08:23Really beautifully together
08:24What you just did was so beautiful
08:26Thank you
08:27Thank you so much
08:28All right
08:29See, we haven't harmonised when we're chatting
08:31Wow
08:34I don't know why
08:35But I was trying to like
08:37Because you're all so great
08:39I'm like, something's got to be wrong
08:41And there was a minute there where I was like
08:43Oh, it feels a lot of yelling
08:44Is it getting too loud?
08:47And just as I was thinking
08:48Yeah, it's a bit loud
08:48You would then change the dynamic
08:50And then my focus was on all three of you
08:53And I think you worked really well together
08:58Did someone lose the lyrics?
09:00I did a teeny little bit
09:01I thought so
09:02And it just so happened to be when I was right on you
09:08You covered it well
09:09But you can't lose lyrics
09:14I understand
09:18All right
09:19Well, we're going to have a little chat
09:23I have no idea what they're going to do
09:31All right, guys
09:35Kalani and Kesha
09:38You are through to the next round
09:42Harriet
09:43I forgot the lyrics
09:48But you are actually vocally a standout
09:53So you are also through to the next round
09:55Thank you so much
09:56Y'all did well
09:58And may I just top it all off by saying
10:01Now that's what I'm talking about
10:03Oh, I haven't heard that all season
10:05Thank you so much
10:06Thank you so much
10:07Bye
10:10Absolutely, I'm not going to let myself
10:11Forget the lyrics again
10:13But other than that
10:14I feel very good
10:15I was really happy with my group
10:16I think we worked well together
10:22I'm feeling over the moon right now
10:25We conquered the team challenge
10:27We made it
10:28We made it
10:29Yeah, I'm just stoked
10:31That I got to impress the judges
10:37You did it, eh?
10:39Jessie, do the sing next group, please
10:41Next group, please
10:44Oh, stop it
10:46Our next group to face the judges
10:48Are the youngest in the competition
10:50Singers Tayo and Jon
10:53Have been paired up with rapper Asha
10:55While they might be close in age
10:57Musically, they couldn't be further apart
10:59You are my treasure
11:01Yeah, you, you, you, you
11:03I want you to know
11:07I said I want you to know now
11:10You should have known when I ain't hit it and slip
11:13That I was with it a bit
11:14Not to consider direct
11:15Hey, ho
11:19During their overnight rehearsals
11:21The group faced the challenge
11:22Of blending both singing and rapping
11:25So what we have to kind of think of now
11:27Is get the right key
11:29Yeah
11:29So, because you're high
11:30I'm a bit lower than you
11:32And you can just do it
11:34I'll try, yeah
11:35As soon as I listen to it
11:36We'll see what we can do
11:36We've definitely got a huge variety of genres
11:39I'm a rapper
11:40So, genre-wise
11:41I might not be able to work as well
11:43With other people in groups
11:45There's some parts in here
11:46That look like they could be a rap
11:47Every smile you fake
11:49Every claim you stake
11:50I'll be watching you
11:51And then the second one will be like
11:53The song's pretty difficult to add rap into
11:55Like polar opposites, almost
11:57It's definitely a bit nerve-wracking
11:59I think you'd still be rapping here
12:02Yeah
12:03With every breath you take
12:05We obviously haven't done much collaboration in our lives
12:08Every move you make
12:09Every vow you break
12:11And it's also hard
12:12Weaving in and working in a rapper
12:14Into our young, unexperienced group
12:16So, that's definitely a challenge
12:24Okie dokie
12:25Tayo, Asha, John
12:28Our teenagers
12:30Wow, how did you guys go last night?
12:33I think we went really well
12:35I think we already had
12:36Quite a good chemistry and connection
12:38Especially because
12:39We're all kind of the same age
12:41And I think that really helped us
12:43John, what are you singing?
12:45And who chose it?
12:47Every breath you take
12:49By the police
12:50So, it's kind of a bit of like
12:53Juxtaposition to our age
12:54All similar ages
12:55But different styles
12:56Yes, definitely
12:57That was definitely like
12:59One of the hardest parts
12:59Is trying to make sure
13:01We could all stand out
13:02But still collaborate together
13:03With all our different styles
13:05Alright boys
13:06Well, whenever you're ready
13:08We can't wait
13:09Awesome
13:11Let's go
13:21Every breath you take
13:25Every move you make
13:28Every move you make
13:29Every bond you break
13:31Every step you take
13:33I'll be watching you
13:34Watching you
13:36Every single day
13:39Every single day
13:41Every words you say
13:43Every words you say
13:45Every game you play
13:46Every game you play
13:47Every night you stay
13:48Every night you stay
13:49I'll be watching you
13:52Oh, can't you see
13:54Can't you see
13:56You belong to me
13:59And my poor heart aches
14:04With every step you take
14:09Every move you take
14:11Every move you make
14:11Man, every vow you break
14:13And every smile you fake
14:15Man, every claim you stake
14:17Man, I'll be watching you
14:18Yeah, I'll be watching
14:20Every move you make
14:22Man, I'll be watching you
14:24Every move you make
14:26And every smile you fake
14:28Every claim you stake
14:30And every smile you fake
14:32Man, I'll be watching you
14:33Yeah, I'll be watching.
14:36With every breath you take.
14:37Mm.
14:38With every breath you take.
14:45With every breath you take.
14:50Yeah, man, every breath you take.
14:53Woo!
14:59What you're looking up there at is unbridled youth.
15:05You guys are some game dudes.
15:08Obviously, you're 16.
15:10Like, that's crazy that you have the confidence
15:13to put something like that together.
15:16There are little parts that were kind of quirky but creative.
15:21There actually was a lot to like about that.
15:24In saying that there's a lot to improve.
15:27Tayo, you had a bung note in there.
15:30You heard it, I heard it, we all heard it.
15:33John, got the lyrics.
15:35You had your own couple of moments there.
15:38Asher, it was...
15:40It was pretty random, man.
15:42It just didn't gel.
15:44You lacked rap melodies.
15:46Every step you take, every step you take.
15:49You know what I mean?
15:50Unfortunately, you didn't.
15:52You didn't do that.
15:53All right.
15:54Well, let's have a little chat and we will be right back.
16:00That was good.
16:01That was good.
16:02I messed up the piano.
16:03I didn't even notice.
16:04I love them so much.
16:05And they're just such sweeties.
16:07Yeah.
16:08I do.
16:08But I think it's out of the steps.
16:11Yeah.
16:12Like, come on.
16:14He had a problem with lyric and pitch.
16:16I think that's where he maybe struggled a lot.
16:20That could have been much cooler.
16:22Yes.
16:23And he didn't do it.
16:25Okay, boys, that was really difficult.
16:27As much as you are super young, you've decided to come on this show.
16:32And we say in the audition, this is it.
16:35You're going to be ready for the big bad world.
16:37So we have decided that Tayo, John, we believe you still have more to show.
16:55And we would like for you to sing again.
16:59You are through to the next round.
17:03Asha, you're on notice.
17:05And you face possible elimination at the end of the day.
17:11Thank you, boys.
17:17Obviously, disappointed could be going home.
17:20It's just gutting.
17:22We kind of had it connected when we were practicing.
17:25But I think in that moment, I kind of lost that melody on the stage there.
17:30And I think that was just nerves.
17:31I hope they see some sort of potential in me.
17:34I need to show the judges that I deserve to be here.
17:37And that music is my everything.
17:39Next, our cheeky cowboy steps up.
17:43Vince, I'm going to be watching you.
17:45With everything to prove.
17:47I've got Believe by Sher.
17:49Definitely not something I would sing.
17:53No.
17:55I think if I don't get this right, I'm out.
17:56The elephant in the room is when Pala and you said to Vince,
18:01I really don't think you're strong enough.
18:03Then, a critique.
18:06That was one of the worst group performances I have ever seen.
18:10That could see one singer walk out of the competition.
18:16I don't know if I can go on from here.
18:19Like, I don't know how to come back from that.
18:22I just feel like it's, uh, it's done for me.
18:33Next up to face the judges is ballad singer Harlan,
18:37broom singer Natalie, and country singer Vince,
18:40who was put on notice during the chorus line challenge.
18:43Unfortunately, you're going to be put on notice.
18:45It is just a vocal thing.
18:48You just weren't the strongest.
18:50So you're not out, but you are on notice.
18:52You're on a notice. Yeah.
18:53I just want to say one thing, Vince.
18:56I'm going to be watching you.
18:58Okay?
18:59And I know you can do it.
19:01I want to prove to you guys and prove to myself
19:03that I deserve this.
19:05However, his plan to impress isn't going well
19:08after being stuck with a song that doesn't play to his strengths.
19:13So they're not any country or anything?
19:15No, I haven't. They're older.
19:18Believe by sure.
19:20This is so different than what I've seen, eh?
19:23No, we're not going to do it like this.
19:24Definitely not something I would sing.
19:26Very different styles from what I'm used to.
19:30This is definitely out of my comfort zone.
19:32You keep pushing me aside and I can't...
19:36Being on notice the first time, that plays on your head a little bit.
19:39This time I have no guitar, no harmonica,
19:42just singing, focusing on my vocals.
19:45Do you believe...
19:47Nah.
19:48I got another chance, but this is the toughest challenge yet.
19:52And if you don't have this right, you're out.
19:58Okay, here we go.
20:00Natalie, Harlan and Vince.
20:03Vince, you were on notice last time?
20:06I was. I've got something to prove.
20:08How did it go last night?
20:10It was a few bumps, but we got past it.
20:13And I'm really excited for this.
20:15Okay.
20:15What song are you singing?
20:16Believe by sure.
20:17And you're familiar enough with the song?
20:19I would not...
20:20I wouldn't see myself singing this in front of you guys,
20:22but I am really, really keen for it.
20:25Alright guys, when you're ready.
20:35No matter how hard I've tried
20:40You kept pushing me aside
20:42And I can't break through
20:46I'm looking at you
20:50It's so sad that you're leaving
20:54It takes time to believe it
21:00But after all is said and done
21:03You're gonna be the lonely one, oh
21:08Do you believe in life after love?
21:15I can feel something inside myself
21:20I really don't think you're strong enough, no
21:25Do you believe in life after love?
21:31I can feel something inside me say
21:36I really don't think you're strong enough, no
21:41Well I know that I'll get through this
21:47Oh
21:49Cause I know that I am strong
21:55Oh
21:56Oh
21:56I don't need you anymore
21:59I don't need you anymore
22:03I don't need you anymore
22:07I don't need you anymore
22:13Do you believe in life after love?
22:26How do you guys feel that went?
22:29Nerves got a little bit of me
22:30But I feel like vocally
22:32A lot better than my other performances
22:34There is so much
22:36To actually like about that
22:38There was some nice moments
22:40Yeah, yeah
22:41Like when you all sang together
22:44I did feel this connection
22:46I felt like you all cared
22:48How it was sounding as a collective
22:51Which was lovely to hear
22:52The elephant in the room is when
22:55Harlan you said to Vince
22:56I really don't think you're strong enough
23:01Harlan your voice is just insane
23:03Harlan you know you know this song
23:05You believe this song
23:07And that's how you just sang it my brother
23:09Which was beautiful to hear
23:10Thank you
23:11You're welcome
23:14You're welcome
23:15You have a lovely voice
23:16I feel like you might have got a bit
23:18A little bit washed away there
23:22But you know you did the best you could
23:24Yeah I think that's the beauty in this setting
23:26That it allows you to un
23:28You know reveal your strengths
23:30And your ability
23:31And the fact that in these moments
23:33They really come through
23:37So we'll just have a little chat
23:39Just give us a second
23:41Hold on
23:42Hold on
23:43Hold on
23:43This boy
23:44That's something else
23:45Yeah
23:46I would
23:47Take those three
23:48I'm not sure about
23:49I'm just I'm confused about this
23:51There is room
23:52Mm-hmm
23:53Okay well
23:54That was really difficult
23:56We definitely didn't agree
23:58And then we came
23:59To an agreeance
24:00To an agreeance
24:01Natalie
24:02And
24:05Harlan
24:11You are through
24:12To the next round
24:18And that leaves
24:20Vince
24:39You have made an improvement
24:53And you are
25:03Also going through
25:04To the next round
25:08There is so much to love about you
25:11You look the most comfortable up there
25:13And I felt really relaxed
25:15Even just at the side of you
25:16That was the best you've sung so far
25:18And look you know you're committed
25:20So you know there's much to learn
25:21For all three of you
25:23Thank you
25:23Well done guys
25:24Thank you so much
25:26Thank you guys
25:26You're welcome
25:27You're welcome
25:29Thank you
25:29Thank you
25:31Thank you
25:35Come on
25:36I worked so hard to try
25:37And step out of my comfort zone
25:38And try and still stay in my lane
25:40And I feel like I did that to the best of my ability
25:42The next thing is top 21
25:44Yes
25:44Very good Zach
25:45So good
25:46With the overnight group challenge reaching its conclusion
25:50The state of play is brutal
25:53Six singers are on notice
25:55And in danger of being eliminated
25:58Jamie
25:59Matt
26:00Alita
26:01Riley
26:01Sophie
26:02And Asher
26:04Up next is our dancing trio
26:07Taking the biggest gamble of the night
26:10It includes cheerleader Olivia
26:13Backup dancer Lockie
26:15And Amy's Harbour Bridge wildcard Lydia
26:18Who spent the entire overnight rehearsal
26:21Focusing on their dance moves
26:23Rather than their singing
26:27Alright
26:27It's the dancers
26:28How are we feeling you three?
26:30I think we're excited
26:31Yeah
26:32Feeling really good
26:33You guys have a great song
26:34What are you doing in terms of movement?
26:37A lot
26:37Yeah?
26:38A lot
26:39Really?
26:40Wow
26:41Entertain us
26:42Yeah
26:42You ready to go?
26:44Yeah
26:44Yeah
26:45Go out there and smash it
26:46Good luck
26:47Good luck you guys
26:48Thank you
26:51Lydia
26:53Olivia
26:54Lucky
26:55Hey
26:57Can't get you out of my head
26:59Three big personalities up here
27:03What song did we end up getting?
27:05So we're doing
27:06Can't get you out of my head
27:08By Kylie Minogue
27:09Excellent
27:09So I got to pick this song
27:11And yeah
27:12I wanted to pick something that kind of showed all of our strengths
27:14And that
27:15Yeah
27:15Okay
27:16And um
27:18How are you feeling?
27:20We feel very good
27:21Um
27:21It was a late night
27:24Almost been awake for 24 hours
27:26That's really scary
27:31My biggest concern is just taking that risk including movement in the performance
27:40I think we might have to do like another hour or so
27:44There's a lot
27:45There's a lot to do
27:46No I just did it wrong just then
27:48But
27:48I don't know
27:49This is what we're here for
27:50Go big or go home
27:53Oh
27:54Tell me what time
27:55Do tell
27:562.30
27:57Oh
27:58In the morning
27:58Went to bed at 3
28:00But we're surviving
28:01For some reason
28:02We have energy
28:03So Jess how did they get along?
28:05Um
28:06I
28:07I
28:07I saw them getting along
28:08I saw you guys really working at it
28:11Communicating
28:12I think one of the things that I mentioned too was um
28:15Was like balancing right?
28:18Um
28:18Because when you add movement to singing
28:22You know
28:23It could
28:24It can go either way right?
28:26Interesting
28:26Okay
28:27Well um
28:29You guys ready?
28:30Yeah
28:31Yeah
28:31Let's do it
28:49I just can't get you out of my head
28:54Boy you're loving is all I think about
28:58I just can't get you out of my head
29:01Boy it's more than I dare to think about
29:06Every night
29:10Every day
29:14Just to be there in your arms
29:19Won't you stay?
29:28Won't you stay?
29:32Won't you stay?
29:33Won't you stay?
29:35Won't you stay?
29:36Won't you stay?
29:38Won't you stay?
29:38Won't you stay?
29:38Won't you stay?
29:40Won't you stay?
29:41Won't you stay?
29:41Won't you stay?
29:41Won't you stay?
29:42Won't you stay?
29:44Won't you stay?
29:47Won't you stay?
30:14That was one of the worst group performances I have ever seen.
30:23Honestly, you are all so much better than that.
30:27Yeah, I mean, oh no.
30:31Damn.
30:34When you're singing with someone, you know, look, um, you listen to what they're singing,
30:40but you don't ever let them drag you to the bad note.
30:45I felt that too.
30:46I felt someone, I can't remember who it was, but someone went off and then it was just
30:52like, the wheels just came off, you know?
30:56What do you think happened there?
30:57Because I really need to know.
31:01Yeah, I definitely think like nerves kicked in and obviously probably a bit of fatigue
31:06as well.
31:06Like we were up quite late just working on it.
31:09And then I think, yeah, we definitely felt that when we got out today.
31:13I mean, I don't know how well you know that song.
31:18I mean, most people have to like brush up on some lyrics.
31:21It's not a song you would just know obviously like that.
31:23And then you've got movement.
31:25So you put a lot of work on yourselves.
31:29Um, I was really rooting for this performance.
31:33I, I spoke to you at length, you know, we, we spoke about, you know, when, when you are singing,
31:42move to that way of singing.
31:45That's a really good technique to think about when you're adding movement to a note.
31:52I just can't get you out of my head.
31:55Do you know what I mean?
31:57Move to the notes and where it's moving.
32:01Or don't do it at all.
32:02Or don't do it.
32:03Yes.
32:03That's an amen for me.
32:04Stay still.
32:05Sorry.
32:06I think, you know, like, I, I appreciate, I really want you to know I appreciate that
32:12you put the time into it, right?
32:14Yeah.
32:14But if you'd had a quarter of the moment and the rest in tune, I would have been cool
32:24with that.
32:25Like, we don't want you guys to bomb out.
32:27We really want you to, we really want to sit here and go, whoa, that is undeniable.
32:33We're like, come on.
32:34Yeah.
32:34It's like, we really want you guys to do, to, to just prove how good you are.
32:42I have to say that, in actual fact, that was truly a car crash.
32:53There are no other words for that, okay?
32:58We've, um, we've already said we, we know you're better than that.
33:03In saying that, Lydia, Lockie, Olivia, you're all on notice and you all face elimination
33:16at the end of the day.
33:20You're welcome.
33:24That was a three-car pileup, not just a car crash.
33:30It's so bad.
33:31Cooked.
33:32I just don't understand what happened.
33:35Even backstage, we were so locked in.
33:37Then we go on and it's like, cooked.
33:40Yeah, I'm a little bit frustrated.
33:41It is embarrassing.
33:42I know that I'm, I am a good singer, but I just, I honestly just don't know what happened
33:48on that stage.
33:49Something took over, I don't even, I can't even explain.
33:56I don't know, I'm just, yeah, I'm extremely embarrassed.
34:01I have a lot of people at home, my loved ones, that I've just like, you know, I promised
34:09them that I would do this and do well.
34:20And like, not only did I disappoint myself, I disappointed.
34:36I just feel like it's, uh, it's done for me.
34:41I don't know.
34:42I just, I just don't know how to come back from this.
34:45Like, yeah.
34:50Yeah.
34:53And all that's left appears safe to see.
35:01Next.
35:02What about like, I have my electric guitar, right?
35:05I don't know.
35:07I recommend we should keep it acoustic.
35:09Definitely is a risk.
35:10It's not the version of Akili they want to see.
35:12What happens when you put two acoustic guitars and a punk rocker together?
35:17I don't even know what to say.
35:23I'm so confused.
35:26Then, as we count down to the eliminations.
35:30That's what it's going to come to.
35:31No one.
35:32Is the tiniest little thing, right?
35:35Is safe.
35:36It's so tough.
35:37In the toughest season yet.
35:39This is your last day on Idol.
35:47Next up, it's time for the final group of the Overnight Challenge.
35:52Country girl, Lily Grace.
35:54Indie singer, Cody.
35:56And punk rocker, Akili.
35:58Who clashed over how to perform the iconic rock song, Mr Brightside.
36:06I recommend we should keep it acoustic.
36:10Like change the vibe of it.
36:13Keep it simple.
36:14Lily and Cody both wanted to do more of like a stripped back version of Mr Brightside.
36:19So it suits them more.
36:21Usually I'm just like electric power chords, fast.
36:25What about like, you know, we do the verse and the pre-choice, like strip back, right?
36:30And then I can have my electric guitar.
36:31And then I go, ba-ba-ba-bum, jealousy.
36:33And then we speed it up.
36:35Right?
36:37I don't know.
36:40You know, we are different.
36:42It needs to be simple.
36:44Yeah.
36:44Yeah, definitely.
36:45There definitely is a risk, like, just having to invent like a new version of myself for this performance.
36:52Side side.
36:52I reckon that should be one person.
36:55Like what?
36:56Like that?
36:57I'm Mr Brightside.
36:59The judges might think this is not the version of Akili they want to see.
37:06Lily Grace, Akili, Cody.
37:12Hey guys.
37:13Wow, lots of different genres here.
37:15How fun.
37:17Cody, what song are you singing?
37:19I was singing Mr Brightside by The Killers.
37:21Wow.
37:22Okay.
37:23That's kind of in your wheelhouse, Akili?
37:27Mm-hmm.
37:27Rock and roll?
37:28The song itself, yeah, but we have a really stripped down version of it.
37:31You stripped it down?
37:32Yeah.
37:33Any disagreements last night or...?
37:35No, I don't think we had any disagreements.
37:37You know, I mean, obviously it's going to be hard.
37:39You know, we're very different in our styles and how we play and what we do.
37:43I'm excited to hear this.
37:45Thank you so much.
37:46Okay, guys.
37:47When you're ready.
37:48We're swapping over?
37:50Yeah.
38:05I'm coming out of my cage and I'll be doing just fine.
38:10Gotta, gotta be down because I want it all.
38:13You started out with a kiss.
38:15How did it end up like this?
38:17It was only a kiss.
38:19It was only a kiss.
38:21Now I'm falling asleep and she's calling a cab.
38:24And he's having a smoke and she's taking the drag.
38:28But she's touching his chest now.
38:34He takes off her dress now.
38:38Letting me go.
38:43And I just can't look.
38:47It's killing me.
38:50It's taking control.
38:55Everybody, hands up.
38:59Tell the sea.
39:01Turn and dance into the sea.
39:05Swimming through sick lullabies.
39:09Choking on your alibis.
39:13But it's just the price I pay.
39:16Destiny is calling me.
39:20Open up my eager eyes.
39:25Cause I'm Mr. Brightside.
39:44I don't even know what to say to that.
39:48I'm so confused.
39:53There were good bits.
39:55And interesting bits.
39:57And some that I don't understand.
40:00And I'm so confused.
40:03I need...
40:03What do you...
40:04What did you feel?
40:09Um...
40:11Let me say this.
40:14Um...
40:15In a group setting.
40:16Yes, you're all individual.
40:19Sometimes you have to kind of forget about those things.
40:23And coming together in a setting.
40:25Working together.
40:26That experience of working with another artist.
40:31Different genre.
40:32Can teach you something.
40:35But you know what?
40:36You really surprised me today.
40:40You did that Achilles for me.
40:42You did something that is really brave for any artist.
40:48You compromised to make the group happy.
40:52Achilles, that's the first time I've actually heard you sing.
40:55You walk a harmony.
40:57Even.
40:58And you're great.
41:00At the start I was like, Achilles maybe too much.
41:05But...
41:05That's Achilles.
41:06That's who you are.
41:07Yeah, that's weird.
41:09Um...
41:09Cody, you did lose our interest.
41:13Um...
41:13Through some parts of that.
41:15Don't go into autopilot.
41:16Fair enough.
41:17Just be wary of that.
41:18You know, Lily Grace, I can read the guys.
41:20But you're very difficult to read.
41:22So, you know, just give something of yourself.
41:25You know.
41:26Smiling and being warm.
41:28It'll help you immensely.
41:30So, we're gonna have a quick chat.
41:35See what I mean about girlfriend?
41:37Is she just found that standoffish?
41:38Is it?
41:39Yeah.
41:40Standoffish.
41:40Oh, good.
41:41Yeah.
41:43I've got a problem with doing that.
41:45It's alright.
41:47But you sounded solid.
41:49And no matter what happens, I like to work with you guys.
41:54Okay, so first and foremost, you're all so individual.
42:00And you worked as a team.
42:03This is what the challenge is, guys.
42:05This is it.
42:05This is like working as a team to get a good outcome.
42:08And somehow you guys brought that together.
42:12You all agreed.
42:13And I felt like that's a win for me when I see those wins come to life in the real
42:21performance.
42:22So, well done.
42:24Guys, through to the next round.
42:27Congratulations.
42:28Cheers.
42:29Thanks very much.
42:30This is the energy.
42:31This is...
42:32This is...
42:33Yeah, man.
42:33Well done, guys.
42:35Well done, man.
42:35Way you go.
42:36Welcome, Kelly.
42:37Aw.
42:38He's cute, isn't he?
42:39Very, very, very cute.
42:42Yes!
42:45That's just who I am.
42:46I love being high energy.
42:47I love to spread my positive energy.
42:49Yeah, it's good.
42:50It's good.
42:51It went well.
42:51We're all through, so it must have gone well.
42:54Can't ask for more than that, yeah?
42:56If we wanted to stay in the competition, we had to make something special of it.
42:59I think we all shined out there.
43:01Yes!
43:03Yes!
43:05Yes!
43:09After the break...
43:15For three...
43:16This is the toughest part.
43:18It's the tiniest little thing.
43:20The dream...
43:22You all sang today, and you were all put on notice.
43:26...is over.
43:27It actually really pains us to say that you'll be leaving the idol competition today.
43:33Will your favourite survive?
43:48With the group challenge over, it's time for our toughest elimination yet.
43:56Asha.
43:58Lucky.
44:00Sophie.
44:01Riley.
44:03Alita.
44:04Jamie.
44:06Matt.
44:07Lydia.
44:09And Olivia.
44:10You are all on notice.
44:13And in danger of going home.
44:16As the judges must cut three of our idol favourites and send them home.
44:24It sucks that we're at this stage already, because I'm looking here thinking, I know that these, as solo artists
44:30are so much better, but they didn't do so well in the challenge.
44:34I mean, it's so tough.
44:36He messed up his lyrics.
44:38The holy water's hearted.
44:41But I got you under the night.
44:44I'm tending.
44:46With the performance that I gave, I know it's not a standard they want, but I know I can offer
44:50so much more, so I hope they give me another chance to prove that I should be here.
44:54She's, she has a big voice.
44:56She had a big voice, yeah.
44:57But that's the thing, the sinker, when you get caught on the sinker, you know, you tend to kind of
45:03go with it.
45:04Won't you stay?
45:11I'm still feeling embarrassed about what happened, but I feel like I can do better, and I haven't had the
45:19chance to show that, and I would love the opportunity to do that.
45:23The challenge brings out the best or the worst.
45:27Yeah.
45:27Some things that are very minor in what I'm seeing in some of them.
45:32That's where it's going to come to, is the tiniest little thing, right?
45:38I can't help falling in love with you.
45:46He kept saying fatigue, you know, it was like a danger zone for him.
45:50But, you know, the show must go on.
45:52You have to.
45:53You must.
45:54If it's already affecting him now.
45:55What's it going to be like later?
45:57Yeah.
46:14Welcome back.
46:16You all sang today and you were all put on notice.
46:22The group challenge is to see you work under pressure and to see if you can work together.
46:33While many of you found your rhythm, all of you lost your place.
46:39Unfortunately, you're only as good as your last performance.
46:42And that's what we have to judge on today.
46:46Look, we all know this wasn't an easy challenge.
46:51I mean, I myself just scraped through when I did it 20 years ago.
46:58And all I want to say is, if this is your last day on Idol, don't give up.
47:08Okay, Asha, a teen rapper, step forward.
47:18Lucky, a backup dancer, step forward.
47:25Sophie, a model from Melbourne, step forward.
47:33We still believe in you.
47:35We'd like to see you sing again.
47:39You all are through to the next round.
47:45Congratulations.
47:45You may leave the theater.
47:58I'm just happy.
47:58I have no words, honestly.
48:00I'm so relieved that we're through to the next round.
48:03You're so good.
48:05Okay.
48:05Let's go.
48:07Okay.
48:08Let's go.
48:10Okay.
48:12Riley, our cattle farmer from Longreach, take a step forward.
48:20We've seen you great, but every show resets your reputation.
48:30Your energy was definitely flat, which is the aim of the game.
48:36We need to see you push through that.
48:41The challenge just got the better of you, and unfortunately you will be leaving either.
48:48Thank you, Riley.
48:49Thanks for being here.
48:51This is your house of pain.
48:57Yeah, a little bit disappointing.
48:59Yeah, definitely thought I could have given it a bit more.
49:02It's all in hindsight though, you know.
49:04And as Amy said, you're only as good as your last gig, and that's fair enough.
49:07Yeah.
49:08Just gonna use this experience as fuel, and yeah, just to really keep pushing on the career.
49:13Yeah.
49:14They don't want to chase.
49:14Yeah.
49:17Anita.
49:22Jamie.
49:27Matt.
49:29Step forward, please.
49:33To be honest, today wasn't your best.
49:37Matt, do you agree with that?
49:40Yeah, 100%.
49:40I do agree.
49:46Alita and Jamie.
49:51We believe you still have more to show, and we would like for you to sing again in the idol
49:57competition.
49:58So you are through to the next round.
50:01Thank you so much.
50:04Free to leave.

50:29maddie you forgot the lyrics today you just looked out of place up there you looked nervous
50:38um and just disconnected from the group we know you're better than that but um
50:47like i keep saying this is what we're judging on you're only as good as that last performance

52:59happened but you know i know that i can give 100 more to that so lydia what about you do
