00:06:34Crying.
00:06:36Okay.

00:06:44Sorry.
00:06:45Sorry.
00:06:45I'm good, but it's just nice.
00:06:47I get so emotional.
00:06:50You dream about these things and you don't ever, sometimes you don't live out those dreams.
00:06:55So, um, I'm so glad I did it.
00:06:59Feels like I'm meant to be here.
00:07:01So.
00:07:06I got in.
00:07:08Good.
00:07:09Samella!
00:07:10Samella is the first contestant to lock in her spot in this year's top 21.
00:07:17All done.
00:07:18For those who don't impress the judges, they'll be put on notice and face elimination at
00:07:25the end of the solo challenge.
00:07:27Next up is ballad singer Harlan.
00:07:34I'm going to work as hard as I can.
00:07:37I really want to be here.
00:07:38I really want to do this.
00:07:39I do have something to prove.
00:07:40And I'm here to make myself and my family proud.
00:07:43My family and my parents were all very hard workers.
00:07:45And that is just who I am and what I stand for.
00:07:49This song, living on a prayer.
00:07:51Do you know it well?
00:07:52I do.
00:07:53Yeah?
00:07:53Yeah.
00:07:53It's one of my mum's favourite songs.
00:07:55I've listened to it since I was basically born.
00:07:58The song is about this person's hardship and the sacrifice they have to make and how they
00:08:03literally are living on nothing other than a prayer.
00:08:07Bon Jovi is my mother's favourite band.
00:08:11She will be going feral in the audience, I am sure.
00:08:15They'll get like a nice close up on her and she'll be acting like a cat, like a feral cat.
00:08:19I need to stop talking.
00:08:24Alright Harlan, I know you're busting to get out there.
00:08:26The time to shine.
00:08:27Let's go.
00:08:27I fell out of it.
00:08:41As soon as he opens his mouth, everybody's jaws are going to drop.
00:08:53Woo!
00:08:57Woo!
00:08:58Woo!
00:08:58I feel like he's down on his luck.
00:09:00It's tough.
00:09:03Oh, so tough.
00:09:07She says we've got to hold on to what we've got.
00:09:14It doesn't make a difference.
00:09:16It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not.
00:09:19We've got each other and that's a lot for love.
00:09:25Oh, give it a shot.
00:09:28Oh, we've been out of it.
00:09:31Oh, we're halfway there.
00:09:33Oh, living on a prayer.
00:09:37Take my hand and you'll make it I swear.
00:09:41Oh, living on a prayer
00:09:46You live for the fight
00:09:48And that's all that you've got
00:09:53Oh, we're halfway there
00:09:57Oh, living on a prayer
00:10:02Take my hand and you'll make it, I swear
00:10:06Oh, living on a prayer
00:10:11Living on a prayer
00:10:30Thank you, guys.
00:10:32Oh, we.
00:10:37Thank you
00:10:38Thank you
00:10:40Jess is just here for the show
00:10:43She just came for dinner and a show
00:10:45Oh, I did say I came here to just be wow
00:10:48And you wowed me, Harlan
00:10:50Thank you so much
00:10:52Thank you
00:10:54Why that song, Harlan?
00:10:56Um, well, my mum just over there, Mariah
00:10:59She's the biggest Bon Jovi fan
00:11:01Oh
00:11:02And she'll probably hate me for saying this on national television
00:11:04But like, she's happily married with a husband and three kids
00:11:07But if Jon Bon Jovi asked her to leave us
00:11:10She definitely would
00:11:11Yeah
00:11:12And I don't blame her
00:11:13You are perfectly fine to have a whole pass
00:11:16Everyone must have one
00:11:17But more so the story and the song
00:11:20Like, it's
00:11:21The lyrics are so beautiful
00:11:23In just a way that like
00:11:24They just have this one prayer
00:11:25And that's literally all they're relying on
00:11:27Like, for their entire future
00:11:28They have nothing else but this prayer
00:11:30And I just find that very powerful
00:11:37You know, Harlan, you actually brought some drama
00:11:41True, you know, like big ballad drama to that song
00:11:44Just by slowing it down the way you did it
00:11:47The audience was mesmerized by you
00:11:50Do you know what I mean?
00:11:51That was really cool
00:11:52Thank you
00:11:52That was a very cool
00:11:54Yeah
00:11:55Really great
00:11:55I agree with Marsha
00:11:57Like, we're addicts for dramatics
00:11:58It was just like, fantastic
00:12:00Thank you
00:12:00You have these striking features
00:12:02Like, you just
00:12:03You just look like such the part up there
00:12:05And you can always
00:12:06You always have something interesting to say
00:12:09And it's a big part of being an artist
00:12:10You know, you need to go into interviews and do live TV
00:12:13And it's like
00:12:13We need to make sure we're picking the right person
00:12:15And you feel right
00:12:17Thank you
00:12:18You feel like the right guy
00:12:23Alright
00:12:23I'm just gonna do it
00:12:25Go ahead and do it
00:12:25I'm gonna do it
00:12:26Do it
00:12:27Do it
00:12:27Harlan
00:12:28From Brizzy
00:12:32Because we're addicts for dramatics
00:12:37Welcome to the top
00:12:3921
00:12:40Thank you so much
00:12:52I'm Adam Lambert
00:12:54I hate to compare but you know like people remind you of people
00:12:58I was trying to figure out who like Adam Lambert
00:13:00Who slightly reminded me of you
00:13:01Yeah, he reminds me of Adam Lambert
00:13:03Harlan
00:13:05How'd you go?
00:13:07What's the news?
00:13:07I'm in
00:13:10Woohoo!
00:13:11So proud
00:13:12I just really
00:13:13I just really went for that drama
00:13:15I felt it in the moment
00:13:16Thank God
00:13:17They said
00:13:18Addicts for the dramatics
00:13:21I've made the top 21
00:13:22It's one step closer to my dream
00:13:24This is what I want to do
00:13:25I'm here for this
00:13:31Hey Mum
00:13:32It's good to see your face again
00:13:35Next in front of the judges
00:13:37Is Cody
00:13:38Who has travelled a long way to be here
00:13:45Karratha
00:13:46Is just like this fantasy world to me
00:13:48I take inspiration from where I'm from
00:13:51And what my family means to me
00:13:53Does Lily want to come to Australian Idol?
00:13:56Yeah
00:13:57There's a small theatre in Karratha
00:13:59But this is a couple times larger than that
00:14:02Yeah
00:14:02Couple times
00:14:03Yeah
00:14:03Top 30 week is tough
00:14:05Because I come from a small town
00:14:07To step on the Australian Idol stage
00:14:09I'm nervous
00:14:10It is just so different
00:14:12It is so different
00:14:14You're a long way from home
00:14:15Yeah
00:14:16Is family coming?
00:14:17They're not
00:14:18No
00:14:18They would love more than anything
00:14:20To be here
00:14:20But it's pretty expensive
00:14:23Yeah
00:14:23It is
00:14:24I miss my family
00:14:25But I have to look past that
00:14:26And make those sacrifices
00:14:28Because it's such a great opportunity for me
00:14:31I've got to make myself proud
00:14:33I've got to impress the judges
00:14:34To get to the top 21 today
00:14:52It's been seven minutes now since I lost my way
00:14:55It doesn't seem that long since my whole world has changed
00:15:01It's in all the little things
00:15:03When you smile now it stings
00:15:05It's been seven minutes since I lost the girl in my dreams
00:15:09Now think a little deeper
00:15:11Think a little clearer
00:15:13Here are you looking at myself
00:15:15These newfound eyes
00:15:19Is it too late to turn around?
00:15:24I'm already halfway out of town
00:15:28And I know that I'll let you down
00:15:31And I know how I let you down
00:15:32Oh, I finally figured it out
00:15:36I forgot to love you, love you, love you
00:15:42I forgot to love you, love you
00:15:45Is it too late to turn around?
00:15:50I'm already halfway out of town
00:15:54I'm already halfway out of town
00:15:56And I know that I'll let you down
00:16:00To love you, love you, love you
00:16:03Love you, love you
00:16:14Cody from Carafa
00:16:16That's right, that's right
00:16:18I've come all the way from Carafa to do this
00:16:20That's fantastic
00:16:21You've got the most unique voice
00:16:23Like we told you this the second you sang
00:16:25Your voice control, your guitar playing
00:16:27You've got it all
00:16:28But that's the worst I've seen you
00:16:31Okay, I understand, yeah
00:16:32I know, but that's what I mean
00:16:34That's how good this guy is
00:16:35That's how good this guy is
00:16:36That's how good he is
00:16:37Yeah
00:16:37I didn't feel what Cody usually makes me feel then
00:16:41And you know what?
00:16:41When you finished
00:16:42I felt like I could see it in your face
00:16:45We've sat down and talked with each other
00:16:47We have, yeah
00:16:48The one thing that we both related with each other
00:16:51Was coming from a small town
00:16:53Regardless of coming from somewhere small
00:16:56That's isolated
00:16:57We dreamt big
00:16:58You're dreaming big
00:17:00You're trying to chase that
00:17:01And I don't think I saw that on the stage today
00:17:05You need to take it back to the smell of home
00:17:09The people that you come from
00:17:11As soon as you mentioned Karratha
00:17:13For some reason I was like this
00:17:15And I felt grounded again
00:17:16I don't know why
00:17:17Yeah
00:17:18She knows
00:17:18She knows you
00:17:19I am willing to work as hard as I can
00:17:22I know you can
00:17:24I know that that wasn't my best performance
00:17:26Maybe the nerves got the better of me
00:17:27But I think I deserve to be here
00:17:29So, yeah
00:17:30Bring, take that everywhere with you
00:17:33Thanks very much
00:17:35Give it a shake
00:17:38It wasn't good enough
00:17:39It lacked, it lacked everything
00:17:46Okay
00:17:47Okay, Cody
00:17:49You know, you said to us that you believe in yourself
00:17:54We believe in you too
00:17:56So, we have decided
00:18:00At this point in time
00:18:02You might need this bit of reality
00:18:08We're gonna put you on notice
00:18:12Thanks, Cody
00:18:13Cheers
00:18:16He's such a good kid
00:18:17And he is
00:18:19He's better than that
00:18:20Yeah
00:18:25Hey!
00:18:26How'd you go?
00:18:27Nah, I'm unnoticed
00:18:28Oh!
00:18:29I know you're not
00:18:30Yeah, nah
00:18:31What happened to you?
00:18:34Still to come
00:18:37The battle for the top 21 erupts
00:18:44As our singers fight for survival
00:18:49Energy levels 100
00:18:51But for some, it's not enough
00:18:54Resulting in shock decisions
00:18:57We're gonna have to put you on notice
00:19:00You're in danger of being eliminated
00:19:02Sorry, I need a minute
00:19:04And one moment
00:19:06This special song for you
00:19:08There's definitely a special connection to it
00:19:10We'll break hearts
00:19:11Because you love me
00:19:15We're not okay
00:19:16Not everyone
00:19:17We're all not okay
00:19:19No, we're not
00:19:32Okay, y'all, let me introduce you to the youngest person who's ever auditioned for Idol
00:19:42This is Kayo and he's actually a busker from Manly
00:19:49Oh my
00:19:51This is insane
00:19:53I am absolutely ecstatic that I've made it to the big solo challenge
00:19:58Oh my god
00:20:00It's incredible
00:20:01And I really just can't wait
00:20:03As soon as I walked on that stage
00:20:05I felt like this
00:20:06This kind of energy hit me
00:20:09Hey
00:20:09Yeah, nice to meet you
00:20:11I'm tired
00:20:12Yeah
00:20:13Yeah
00:20:14Good
00:20:17Good
00:20:17This is a little bit different from busking isn't it?
00:20:20Completely different
00:20:28Don't forget your mind
00:20:29Yeah
00:20:30There's so much that I need to remember
00:20:32Energy in the room is coming off
00:20:34Make sure you're not looking down
00:20:35Make sure that you're in there
00:20:37Trust yourself
00:20:37It's quite overwhelming
00:20:38The standards are really high
00:20:40It makes you nervous
00:20:41I'm 15 years old
00:20:43So I've got to really work hard to prove that I'm ready for this
00:20:46Just because I really really want to make it to top 21
00:21:05I got this feeling
00:21:07Inside my bones
00:21:10It goes electric way
00:21:12But when I turn it on
00:21:14All through my city
00:21:16All through my home
00:21:18We're flying up
00:21:20No ceiling
00:21:20When I'm in my zone
00:21:22I got that sunshine in my pocket
00:21:25Got that good soul in my feet
00:21:27Feel that hurt
00:21:28Okay, good
00:21:29When it drops
00:21:30Ooh
00:21:31I can take my eyes above it
00:21:33Moving soon for not with no lead
00:21:36We'll unlock the way we rock it
00:21:38So don't stop
00:21:39Under the lights
00:21:41When everything goes
00:21:43Nowhere to hide
00:21:45When I'm getting you close
00:21:47When you move
00:21:49Well, you already know
00:21:51So just imagine
00:21:53Just imagine
00:21:54Just imagine
00:21:55Just imagine
00:21:57One, two, three, four

00:22:05But you dance, dance, dance

00:22:07Nothing I should do
00:22:09But you dance, dance, dance
00:22:11All those things I shouldn't do
00:22:13But you dance, girl
00:22:15Everybody clap
00:22:16Got this feeling in my body
00:22:20Got this feeling in my body
00:22:22Got this feeling in my body
00:22:23Got this feeling in my body
00:22:29Hey, man!
00:22:30What a legend!
00:22:34Wow!
00:22:35That was awesome!
00:22:37Wow!
00:22:40Yeah, my brother
00:22:41He's 15
00:22:4215 years old
00:22:4415
00:22:45Thank you
00:22:48I'm so glad you came from behind that piano
00:22:51I wanted to see you move
00:22:53And I wanted you to make the audience crazy
00:22:55Because I know you can
00:22:56And they kind of went a little bit crazy for you
00:22:58For her
00:22:59Thank you so much
00:23:05Tire
00:23:05I, um
00:23:06I was worried about you today, man
00:23:08But dude
00:23:09Like from the second you got behind those keys
00:23:11And really worked
00:23:13There wasn't a glimmer of nerves
00:23:15I just felt like you were really in the moment
00:23:18Like I think you ticked every
00:23:19Every little box I have in my head dude
00:23:22I'm really
00:23:22I'm proud of you
00:23:23Thank you so much
00:23:24Thank you
00:23:30Tire
00:23:31You are so much fun
00:23:32Aw, thank you so much
00:23:34Thank you Jess
00:23:37I think people tend to look at age and go
00:23:40Aw, you can't do this
00:23:42You can't do that
00:23:42But you showed up today
00:23:45Thank you
00:23:46Thank you
00:23:49What you gonna do?
00:23:50Yeah
00:23:51Okay
00:23:52Yeah, yeah, yeah, definitely
00:23:56From my heart, you know, like
00:23:57I don't care how old you are
00:23:59If this is what you say you want to do
00:24:01My brother, you do that
00:24:02Welcome to the top 21
00:24:04Thank you so much
00:24:05Thank you
00:24:05Thank you
00:24:08Thank you
00:24:08Thank you
00:24:08Thank you
00:24:10What a guy
00:24:11What a guy
00:24:14What a guy
00:24:16What a guy
00:24:18Made it through
00:24:19I'm so happy
00:24:21I cannot believe that I'm in the top 21
00:24:23I'm super stoked, super excited
00:24:25And see you next time
00:24:2815, what the hell
00:24:30Isn't that wild?
00:24:34Next to perform is Lydia
00:24:37Whose idle journey has been anything but smooth
00:24:42From her sky-high audition on top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge
00:24:53To the crushing lows of Top 30 Week
00:24:58I was really rooting for this performance
00:25:01That was truly
00:25:04A car crash
00:25:07There are no other words for that, okay?
00:25:09I'm a performer
00:25:10Like this is what I f***ing do
00:25:12And that's embarrassing
00:25:13I don't know how to come back from that
00:25:17Top 30 Week has challenged me in ways I never thought possible
00:25:20How are you feeling?
00:25:22I got here
00:25:23I understood what was going to happen this week
00:25:25But I didn't quite comprehend
00:25:28How hard it would be
00:25:31I have been shaken to my core
00:25:35I lost a lot of confidence in myself as well
00:25:39I'm extremely embarrassed
00:25:40A song like that
00:25:42Especially like in front of Jessica Malboy
00:25:44Literally someone that I've looked up to like my whole life
00:25:47I don't want a Corrie
00:25:49No, it doesn't need it
00:25:51I wanted to just focus on the vocals
00:25:54Of course, and after, yeah
00:25:55Yeah
00:25:56My biggest regret if I left the competition now is
00:26:00I definitely did not do my best
00:26:06I have a lot to prove in the solo challenge
00:26:09I really, really want to make the top 21
00:26:14This week has given me this extra drive
00:26:18To prove to myself that I deserve to be here
00:26:21Maybe I don't know
00:26:24Maybe I'm going to get back all themal
00:26:50But let's prepare
00:26:51To be here
00:26:51If you're Пр hue
00:26:51The time
00:26:53She got a booty like a Cadillac
00:26:56But I can send you into overdrive
00:27:00You've been waiting for that
00:27:02Step on up, swing your back
00:27:06See, anybody could be good to you
00:27:09You need a bag, gotta blow your mind
00:27:12Bang, bang, into the room
00:27:16Bang, bang, all over you
00:27:19Wait a minute, let me take you
00:27:21There, wait a minute, till you're
00:27:24Hey
00:27:25See, he's giving his heritage a job
00:27:28After the end, go
00:27:32Go on and hear you say the talk, play talk
00:27:34You need a bag, gotta blow your mind
00:27:40Bang, bang, bang, goes your heart
00:27:42I know you wouldn't
00:27:43Leave me, sing of my heart
00:27:46Wait a minute, let me break you there
00:27:49Wait a minute, let me break you there
00:27:55Whoa!
00:27:57Hey!
00:27:58All right!
00:28:00Energy levels, 100
00:28:09You know, Lydia, we've seen so many different stages of you
00:28:14That's the best you've ever been
00:28:21Ever
00:28:22And you know, I get a feeling that there's so much more
00:28:29You know, like, wow
00:28:30How did that feel in front of your idol over here, Jessica Mowboy
00:28:34Yeah, she's back, hi
00:28:35She's back
00:28:36I'm back
00:28:37Yeah
00:28:38Um, Lydia, I agree with Marsha, I thought that was really slick
00:28:42Because I was watching you, you were giving it absolutely everything and hitting everything
00:28:46And didn't, didn't overdo the moves, looks really comfortable out there
00:28:50Well done
00:28:51Thank you
00:28:58Somebody got some vocals
00:29:01Oh my god, coming from you
00:29:02Wow, you were hitting some notes that sometimes I think
00:29:06I think the dogs in the street heard them
00:29:09No, but even, like, I doubt myself for, you know, doing those notes
00:29:13And it can be scary
00:29:15So you were very confident in them
00:29:17And that's what excited me
00:29:18That you knew exactly where you were taking it
00:29:20And that's what an artist is
00:29:23Thank you
00:29:27We ain't got nothing much to say up here except, um, welcome to the top 21
00:29:33Oh my god
00:29:36Thank you
00:29:37Thank you so much
00:29:38Oh my god
00:29:41Bye bye
00:29:48Oh, I can't run too much of these heels, but hey
00:29:54She came up to kill and she did
00:29:57I just wanted to kill that performance and I think I did
00:30:01And now I'm through
00:30:01Top 21
00:30:04Woo!
00:30:07Woo!
00:30:08I did it!
00:30:10Oh my gosh
00:30:11Yay!
00:30:13Coming up
00:30:14Yay!
00:30:16The moment that brings everyone to their feet
00:30:21Everyone got out
00:30:24Jess gets a little flirty
00:30:26You taught me
00:30:27And I can teach you a lot more
00:30:28Oh, there it is!
00:30:30There it is!
00:30:34And which idol favourite fails to step up when it counts the most?
00:30:40I'm doing this for Nan
00:30:42We're gonna have to put you on notice
00:30:44Yep
00:30:44I just know how much it means to her
00:30:53For many of our performers, tonight's performance is a dedication to the family that inspired them
00:31:00Like for our next singer, the Central Coast landscaper, Kalani
00:31:05Nan's coming to watch me today
00:31:06I just want to get out there and, you know, make her happy
00:31:09Kalani, do you want to help me hang the rest of this washing?
00:31:11Of course
00:31:12She's like the glue of the family
00:31:14Let's go hang her up, eh?
00:31:15If anything's popping off or, like, anyone's stressed out, it's Nan's there just bringing it all together, making it work
00:31:24How did you get into music?
00:31:26It's Nan, for sure
00:31:27Nan, I love that
00:31:30She's like my biggest supporter
00:31:31She bought me my first guitar
00:31:33I'm doing this for Nan
00:31:37I was pretty confident in that chorus line
00:31:40You'll remember me
00:31:44And I just got too relaxed in it and I messed it up
00:31:47Kalani, you're on notice
00:31:49We all get wake-up calls and this is a big one for you
00:31:52I want to get to the top 21 more than anything
00:31:57This week has definitely humbled me and taught me some lessons
00:32:00Good luck
00:32:01Enjoy
00:32:03I'm just hoping to show the judges my full potential of my performance
00:32:08It's all guns blazing from here
00:32:21Let's dance in style, let's dance for a while
00:32:26Heaven can wait, we're only watching the sky
00:32:31Hoping for the best, but expecting the worst
00:32:35Are you gonna drop your bomb or not?
00:32:41Let us die young, let us live forever
00:32:46We don't have the power, but we'll never sing it
00:32:51Sitting in a sand pit
00:32:53Life is the short trip, the music's for the sad man
00:33:03Forever young, I wanna be forever young
00:33:12Do you really wanna live forever?
00:33:17Forever and ever
00:33:22I wanna be forever young
00:33:32Do you really wanna live forever?
00:33:38Forever and ever
00:33:58Oh, Kalani, that voice man, wow
00:34:01It's just, it's something else
00:34:04Thank you, thank you so much
00:34:06It's something else
00:34:08I think you're a superstar, but my only fear is that
00:34:13Because, like, because you're so effortless
00:34:15You just need to really work out a way to be like
00:34:18Hey, all eyes on me
00:34:19Even if it is
00:34:20Yeah
00:34:20And Marsha will probably say the same thing
00:34:21Yeah
00:34:22Of the stillness
00:34:22Even if you didn't move at all
00:34:24Yeah
00:34:25When you come out here
00:34:26You gotta pinpoint who you're singing it for
00:34:29That will move you
00:34:30That will keep you going
00:34:32And keep you solid and present
00:34:33Your voice is one of the finest instruments I've heard for a long time
00:34:38Thank you so much
00:34:39You are welcome
00:34:40Thanks so much
00:34:41You're welcome
00:34:42But, you know, I need you to give something of yourself, not just your voice
00:34:50Yeah
00:34:50But, you know, like, we saw you audition and your nan
00:34:54We all cried because it was so beautiful, you know
00:34:57I was so incredibly touched
00:34:58You're close to your nan because it's all about family, okay?
00:35:02Now, when you come out and sing for now on
00:35:04If you get a chance, sing for Sue
00:35:07Yeah
00:35:07Sing for your nan
00:35:08Yeah
00:35:11Are you proud?
00:35:12Oh, I'm so proud
00:35:14Just give us a second, Kalani
00:35:17Look
00:35:18There's no way we have to
00:35:21I think so
00:35:22I think so
00:35:23I think so
00:35:23Yeah
00:35:31Kalani, our landscaper
00:35:33That's me
00:35:34We can't lose you
00:35:35Welcome to the Top 21
00:35:37Oh, thank you so much
00:35:39Thank you so much, guys
00:35:41Thank you
00:35:43Yeah, I'm just stoked, I'm just stoked that I've landed you
00:35:49Oh my god
00:35:51Oh my god
00:36:00Sorry, I need a minute
00:36:01That's so cute
00:36:03Cutie patootie
00:36:04She's been the glue
00:36:08You know, forever
00:36:10and we'd just, yeah, you know.
00:36:14Cos I feel like I'm, you know,
00:36:17doing what I was always meant to be doing
00:36:19and I just know how much it means to her
00:36:22to see me killing it and, you know, kicking goals, so...
00:36:31Yeah.
00:36:35Next to the stage is Sophie
00:36:37and after a rocky start to Top 30 week,
00:36:41she has a lot to prove.
00:36:44I might look super tough, but I'm really nervous.
00:36:48My audition was a bit rough.
00:36:50I didn't expect a young girl
00:36:52to come in and sing old, sad lady songs.
00:36:55Then I got put on notice.
00:36:57When you are on television,
00:36:59you actually need to lift a little more.
00:37:01Got a lot to prove.
00:37:03I need to smash this one out.
00:37:05I really want to make the Top 21.
00:37:27Some boys kiss me, some boys hug me,
00:37:31I think they're okay.
00:37:33But if they don't give me proper credit,
00:37:38I just walk away.
00:37:41They may beg and they may plead but they don't see the light.
00:37:48Because the boy with the cold hot cash is always this right.
00:37:54Come on!
00:37:55Because we are living in a material world.
00:37:59And I am a material girl.
00:38:01You'll know that we are living in a material world.
00:38:06And I am a material girl.
00:38:08Oh, yeah.
00:38:11I am a material girl.
00:38:14Oh, yeah.
00:38:16I am a material girl.
00:38:16All right, ladies.
00:38:17You see, me.
00:38:18I am a material girl.
00:38:20I am a material girl.
00:38:34I am a material girl.
00:38:47Okay?
00:38:48And if you are a material girl,
00:38:48All right?
00:38:48Woo!
00:38:57Sophie, our model from Melbourne, I felt like it was a little erratic at some parts.
00:39:03Yeah.
00:39:03And some pitch moments.
00:39:05Yeah, for sure.
00:39:06But I love that.
00:39:07I love the creativity in it.
00:39:09And I love that you thought through the whole performance.
00:39:12I just wish I got a more polished performance just then.
00:39:17What do you girls think?
00:39:18You know, Madonna's the bomb.
00:39:21The thing about Madonna is she truly is and wasn't always will be a material girl with so much attitude
00:39:27it drips from her.
00:39:29You know what I mean?
00:39:29And a large part of being a model is attitude.
00:39:32But you didn't do it then.
00:39:34You tried, but you didn't.
00:39:37Do you want to talk to me about it?
00:39:39Yeah, I think you're right.
00:39:40That wasn't very polished.
00:39:42A little bit stuffed up at the end.
00:39:44But, you know, I tried my best, I think.
00:39:51Jessie?
00:39:52Yeah.
00:39:56I'm kind of like, I'm just weighing in.
00:39:59I think you have such an amazing look and a demanding presence.
00:40:04What's going wrong is your conviction.
00:40:06You did this, oh, oh yeah.
00:40:10But it was like, oh, oh yeah.
00:40:12There's a total difference in committing to something.
00:40:16Yes, but you know, there's that saying, go hard or go home.
00:40:17You go hard or just don't do it at all.
00:40:20Yeah.
00:40:21Okay.
00:40:23Um.
00:40:27Agreed.
00:40:28I agree.
00:40:31Uh, Sophie.
00:40:34We're gonna put you on notice.
00:40:38Thank you guys.
00:40:39And, unfortunately, you're in danger of being eliminated.
00:40:43Thank you so much.
00:40:51Oh, it's off.
00:40:53It's alright.
00:40:57It's so frustrating.
00:41:01Anyways.
00:41:04I just, thought I was gonna nail that, so.
00:41:11Sorry, just for a second.
00:41:14Yeah.
00:41:15I just feel like I've been kind of copping it.
00:41:22Next.
00:41:23This would definitely be the biggest performance I've ever done in my entire life.
00:41:28I'm really hoping that I can look up from my toes and look out in the crowd and be sort
00:41:33of that one with the audience rather than kind of in my own head about it.
00:41:36It's make or break.
00:41:38I know it's nerve-wrecking.
00:41:39Don't get me wrong.
00:41:41There were problems, um, vocally and stuff.
00:41:45Which Idol Hopeful is at risk of going home?
00:41:50We're gonna have to put you on notice.
00:41:52And later, country singer Lily Grace saddles up for her biggest performance yet.
00:41:58There's no room for mistakes.
00:42:00There's no room for mess ups.
00:42:02You've got to do something to stand out or you're going home.
00:42:05But can she deliver?
00:42:09When it matters most.
00:42:11Lily Grace, you're a strong girl.
00:42:13Don't give that up.
00:42:21With places in the top 21 filling up fast, our next singer Wanwoo is ready to own the stage and
00:42:29prove she belongs among the best.
00:42:32This would definitely be the biggest performance I've ever done in my entire life.
00:42:37This is in front of judges. This is in front of Australia. The stakes are very high.
00:42:41You look amazing. You ready for this?
00:42:44I'm so excited. Like, I have people to work with.
00:42:46I know my mum's in this. I'm gonna be like...
00:42:48Yeah. Hey, mama.
00:42:50My mum will be in the audience and you will know she's in the audience. Trust me.
00:42:57My mum is literally my rock.
00:43:00I am dedicating my performance to my mum because he's the strong woman I want to be like.
00:43:04I'm following in those footsteps and I'm making you proud.
00:43:09Come on.
00:43:12Hello.
00:43:14Woo!
00:43:16Woo!
00:43:17Woo!
00:43:23Hello.
00:43:25Sorry, I just saw my mum up.
00:43:32Oh, shit.
00:43:34Okay.
00:43:35I can pull my Gucci on.
00:43:38I could wear my Louis Vuitton.
00:43:42But even with nothing on, I said I made you look.
00:43:47I made you look.
00:43:49Ooh.
00:43:50I'll make you double take as soon as I walk away.
00:43:54Call up your chiropractor just in case a neck pain.
00:43:58Ooh.
00:43:59Tell me what you, what you, what you gonna do.
00:44:01Ooh.
00:44:03Cause when I do my walk, I can guarantee a jaw would drop, drop.
00:44:10Cause they don't make a lot of what I got, got.
00:44:13Ladies, it can do me just your bop, bop, bop, bop, bop.
00:44:18Yeah.
00:44:21Yeah.
00:44:21I could have my Gucci on, Gucci on.
00:44:25I could wear my Louis Vuitton.
00:44:28But even with nothing on, bet I made you look.
00:44:33Said I made you look.
00:44:35Yeah, I look good in my Versace dress.
00:44:38But I'm harder where my morning hairs are messed.
00:44:43Cause even with my heart, I bet I made you look.
00:44:48Bet I made you look.
00:44:50Whoa!
00:44:52Whoa!
00:44:53Whoa, whoa, whoa!
00:44:55Whoa, whoa, whoa!
00:44:56Whoa, whoa, whoa!
00:44:59One.
00:45:01You said Mama's here?
00:45:03Oh, you can see her.
00:45:05Hey.
00:45:06Aw.
00:45:07Hi, Mom!
00:45:11It was nice.
00:45:12It was nice seeing your face light up.
00:45:14You look, like, that outfit and just the way you move and your...
00:45:19It was just so captivating.
00:45:21Like, I think when you look at me, you're looking into my soul.
00:45:25And I...
00:45:27It's scary, but I like it also.
00:45:31Great song choice.
00:45:32I'm going to have to get a copy and send it to our friend Megan
00:45:34because she's going to love that.
00:45:36Oh, thank you.
00:45:38But, yeah.
00:45:38Well done.
00:45:39I really liked it.
00:45:41I really liked it.
00:45:44You know, Wanwoo, there were problems vocally and stuff.
00:45:48And I don't believe that you're used to singing with a band.
00:45:52So, you know, and you're listening to you.
00:45:54You're listening to all the instrumentation that goes into your head.
00:45:57And it gets confusing.
00:45:59Given the chance Wanwoo.
00:46:01With some help, you can learn the pitch.
00:46:03You have to learn.
00:46:05But I really dig what you're bringing to this contest.
00:46:08It's great.
00:46:08You bring such entertainment.
00:46:11And I think, collectively, you're a package for me.
00:46:17Yeah.
00:46:18Yeah.
00:46:18Well, we will talk.
00:46:20Okay.
00:46:21I honestly think...
00:46:27Actually, we'll just potentially do that.
00:46:31Yeah.
00:46:31Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:46:33I guess, yeah.
00:46:34Cheers.
00:46:35Yeah.
00:46:42So, Wanwoo.
00:46:49Would love to welcome you to the top 20 more!
00:46:54Oh no!
00:46:59Okay!
00:47:00Okay!
00:47:02Okay!
00:47:05Yeah!
00:47:07I did it, mom!
00:47:10Aw.
00:47:11She's so cool.
00:47:13She's a lovely chick.
00:47:14Yeah, yeah.
00:47:14Yeah, yeah.
00:47:20Hello!
00:47:22South 21!
00:47:25I'm so proud of you.
00:47:27Not the three, not the two, but one.
00:47:31Woo!
00:47:32I'm so proud of you.
00:47:34I'm so proud of you.
00:47:36I'm so proud of you.
00:47:36Oh, my God.
00:47:38Barbara Harry is the next to perform.
00:47:40And he knows exactly what he needs to do to get a spot in the top 21.
00:47:46The judges have been very critical of sort of my stage performance.
00:47:49It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight.
00:47:53Look at your audience.
00:47:56Yeah.
00:47:56Give something of yourself.
00:47:58Sometimes I do tend to settle into myself a little bit.
00:48:01I just want to be a little bit more open and kind of out there and present.
00:48:04But I just love playing in a band.
00:48:06I'm really looking forward to playing to a crowd and having that sort of audience feel to vibe off.
00:48:11So I think that's probably where I'll feel most at ease.
00:48:14It's kind of in my comfort zone.
00:48:15So I'm really hoping that I can look up from my toes and look out at the crowd and be
00:48:20sort of at one with the audience rather than kind of in my own head about it.
00:48:23It's make or break.
00:48:24Good luck out there.
00:48:25Harry, take it away.
00:48:26You're on.
00:48:31Please welcome the father from Ballarat, Harry.
00:48:45Sling down under my skin.
00:48:49make sure you try to conjure the wind and days.
00:48:57He's my, my mind
00:49:14Somebody call out to your brother
00:49:17He's calling out your name
00:49:22Hiding under the cold
00:49:23With no one else to blame
00:49:26Oh, you couldn't know what your name was
00:49:31You couldn't tell it to his face
00:49:33You were caught up by the blade
00:49:40You cower in the corner
00:49:42Confide in your father
00:49:44Let it play your day
00:49:50Let it have and stay
00:49:53Oh, you couldn't tell it to his face
00:50:23We have a Matt Corby and the whole idea is to learn who Harry is
00:50:27So just really think about the way you could potentially stand out
00:50:31Yep
00:50:31And not just sort of be in the shadow of the artist you're covering
00:50:36If that makes sense
00:50:37Of course, yeah, definitely
00:50:40Harry, to me, you have such a beautiful face
00:50:44You need to share your face with the audience
00:50:46We didn't see you
00:50:48You know, you were sort of into the neck of the guitar
00:50:50And then when you smiled, you lit up the room
00:50:53Do you know what I mean?
00:50:54And I know it's nerve-wracking
00:50:55Don't get me wrong
00:50:56But we need to see who you are
00:50:59Yep
00:51:01Harry, you could be something really big
00:51:04If you really believed in it
00:51:06And I think it's opening your eyes
00:51:07I think it's opening up your body
00:51:09And really letting us in
00:51:13We need to connect
00:51:14And you need to let us in
00:51:16And with the calibre of singers we've seen
00:51:18That just, it didn't hit the mark
00:51:22For that reason, you're on notice
00:51:25And unfortunately, you're in danger of being eliminated
00:51:30Thank you
00:51:36I got a little bit nervous
00:51:38And I just sort of took over a little bit
00:51:39And I wasn't able to kind of do my best
00:51:41I'd be incredibly disappointed
00:51:43If today was my day to go home
00:51:44I feel like I've worked really hard
00:51:47I'd be very sad
00:51:49Still to come
00:51:50The most inspirational
00:51:53Top 30 solo performance
00:51:55Idol has ever seen
00:51:57I'm doing this
00:51:58My dad
00:51:59He has cancer
00:52:00And it's just me and him really
00:52:05I think you're an absolute superstar
00:52:08And
00:52:09Nope, Jess's boyfriend's next
00:52:11Can Vince rise to the occasion
00:52:14You know what?
00:52:15I can hear improvements
00:52:17There's still work to do
00:52:21What I love
00:52:22I love Chicky Kyle Boy
00:52:35Next to perform is Charlie
00:52:38Who gave us one of the most emotional moments in the competition so far
00:52:43Of a feather
00:52:44We should stick together
00:52:47I know
00:52:48Said we never
00:52:50Think I was
00:52:51Charlie
00:52:52That was
00:52:53Beautiful
00:52:54I love you
00:52:56To the day that I die
00:52:59My mum passed away two years ago
00:53:01I live with my dad
00:53:03We're just off to the hospital today for an appointment for a checkup for dad
00:53:07He's older
00:53:08He's older
00:53:08He has cancer
00:53:09And it's just me and him really
00:53:12Being a full time carer is a lot
00:53:15It's just what I have to do
00:53:16You know
00:53:16You take care of the people that you love
00:53:19Not many people get to realise their dreams
00:53:23In a big way
00:53:24Dad has always been very encouraging
00:53:26Me doing music
00:53:27Believing in me when no one else would
00:53:29You don't have to think about me while you're away
00:53:31You need to just do your stuff
00:53:33You're there
00:53:34To try and achieve something
00:53:37Yes
00:53:38That's really really important
00:53:40I'm doing this for not just for myself
00:53:43But for my dad
00:53:44I want to make him proud
00:53:47Don't look back
00:53:49I'm singing Walking on Sunshine
00:53:52We're going to take more of a soul approach
00:53:54For more of my style
00:53:54Kind of taking a step back
00:53:56And letting the vocals have a bit more room to breathe
00:54:01I'm just wanting to make sure
00:54:02That it's a really great performance
00:54:04For the audience as well
00:54:26Used to think maybe you love me
00:54:29Now baby I'm sure
00:54:36And I just can't wait
00:54:39Until the day
00:54:40That you knock on my door
00:54:48Every time I go to the mailbox
00:54:52I'm going to hold myself down
00:54:58And I just can't wait
00:55:01Until you're right
00:55:03That you're coming around
00:55:08I'm walking on sunshine
00:55:14I'm walking on sunshine
00:55:20I'm walking on sunshine
00:55:25And don't it feel good
00:55:31Don't it feel good
00:55:34Yeah
00:55:39I feel the love
00:55:41I feel the love
00:55:42I know it's real
00:55:45I feel the love
00:55:47I feel the love

00:56:27It was so moving
00:56:28It was
00:56:29I just see the joy in your face
00:56:31It looks like you've been doing it
00:56:33For like 20 years
00:56:34You've managed to find heart and soul
00:56:37In every performance
00:56:39It's just so unique
00:56:40And it's so real
00:56:41And you just can't fake that
00:56:43So
00:56:43Thank you
00:56:44Thank you so much
00:56:45That was epic
00:56:45I loved it

00:56:46Thank you
00:56:47Thank you
00:56:51Yeah

00:56:52I think you bring to the show
00:56:53Such uniqueness
00:56:54Oh thank you Jess
00:56:55And I'm so happy for you
00:56:56And that performance
00:56:57And that you felt good
00:56:59Which made us feel really good
00:57:00Yeah
00:57:01Feeling the love
00:57:02You know
00:57:06What can we say
00:57:09Soul man

00:57:33The band was great
00:57:33The crowd was great
00:57:34The judges were really
00:57:35Really receptive
00:57:36It was just a
00:57:37Really really lovely feeling
00:57:39The whole time
00:57:40And it just felt so nice
00:57:41So I did it
00:57:42I got into the top 21
00:57:43Dad
00:57:44Well well well
00:57:46Well done Charlie
00:57:48You feel emotional
00:57:49Yeah I feel quite emotional
00:57:51I wish
00:57:51I wish that
00:57:52Mum was here
00:57:54She's watching you
00:57:55Yeah mate

00:58:04Nope
00:58:05Jess's boyfriend's next
00:58:07Right from the start
00:58:09Vince's cheeky personality
00:58:11Has won over the judges
00:58:13In his audition
00:58:15He boot scooted his way
00:58:17To a golden ticket
00:58:18Woohoo
00:58:19No matter how hard I've tried
00:58:22And in top 30 week
00:58:24The judges have encouraged Vince
00:58:26To work on his vocals
00:58:31Vince
00:58:31You have made an improvement
00:58:34You look the most comfortable up there
00:58:36And I felt really relaxed
00:58:38Even just at the sight of you
00:58:40I'm here to build myself my future
00:58:44And that is with my voice
00:58:46I need to show the judges
00:58:48I have what it takes
00:58:49Because I want to be here
00:58:50And I deserve to be here
00:58:51I have to try and leave it all out there
00:58:53Giddy up cowboy
00:58:54Good luck buddy
00:59:17On a warm summer's day
00:59:20On the train bound for nowhere
00:59:23I met up with the gambler
00:59:25We were both too tired of speaking
00:59:28So we took turns staring
00:59:30At the window at the darkness
00:59:33Till boredom overtook us
00:59:36And we began to speak
00:59:38You gotta know when to hold on
00:59:40Know when to fold on
00:59:43Know when to walk away
00:59:46Know when to run
00:59:48You never count your way
00:59:49You never count your way
00:59:49You never count your way
00:59:51You never count your way
00:59:57Everybody knows
01:00:01The best that you can hope for
01:00:03Is to die in your sleep
01:00:05Come on and run
01:00:06You gotta know when to hold on
01:00:08Know when to fold on
01:00:11No way to fold on
01:00:12Know when to fold on
01:00:13Know when to walk away
01:00:14Know when to run
01:00:15Know when to run
01:00:16You never count your money
01:00:18When you're sitting at the table
01:00:21There'll be time enough to count it
01:00:24When the deal is done
01:00:26There will be time in other county
01:00:29When the deal goes on
01:00:34Thank you!
01:00:36Oh, so cute!
01:00:38Cheeky!
01:00:40Yes!
01:00:42Ah!
01:00:47You know, you're so cheeky.
01:00:49You're just so cheeky and so cute, you know?
01:00:52And I'm watching the audience like I keep saying y'all,
01:00:54and they just adore you.
01:00:57So whatever we're seeing, they're seeing.
01:01:03Let's see what your line dancing partner thinks.
01:01:06Oh, yeah.
01:01:07We line danced together.
01:01:08They did, they did, they did.
01:01:09In the first audition.
01:01:11I was terrible.
01:01:12It was fun, wasn't it?
01:01:12I was terrible at it. You taught me.
01:01:14I did teach you.
01:01:16And I could teach you a lot more.
01:01:18Oh, there it is!
01:01:20That's right, Jess.
01:01:22Stop it!
01:01:23Come on, Jess.
01:01:24Stop that!
01:01:25Stop that!
01:01:27Um...
01:01:27She meant vocally.
01:01:29What?
01:01:29Oh, I understand.
01:01:30That's right.
01:01:30That's right.
01:01:32Oh, this is gold.
01:01:34Um, no, seriously.
01:01:36I think, um, very entertaining, charismatic, oh my goodness.
01:01:40Um, but yeah, I think there's still a lot more work to be done.
01:01:45You know what?
01:01:46I can hear improvements in your, in your vocals.
01:01:50There's still so much work to do.
01:01:54Um, there is, guys.
01:01:55You know it.
01:01:56But like, when you win, when you win.
01:02:03There's a lot of great singers in this competition so far.
01:02:06And so, I can see them.
01:02:08I can see them all.
01:02:09And I'm just wondering, you know, do you fit in there?
01:02:14I don't know.
01:02:17Yeah.
01:02:18Are we gonna lose someone to keep Cheeky Cowboy?
01:02:30Okay, Vince.
01:02:31I had a chat.
01:02:34And...
01:02:35The vocals just aren't there.
01:02:39So...
01:02:39We're gonna have to put you on notice.
01:02:42No worries.
01:02:44Thanks, guys.
01:02:47Okay, love you.
01:02:48Oh, there's nothing.
01:02:49It's great.
01:02:50We love you.
01:02:51It's okay.
01:02:53Woo!
01:02:55The vocals just weren't all there.
01:02:58What up, yo?
01:02:58How'd you go?
01:02:59How'd you go?
01:02:59How'd you go?
01:03:00Ah, notice.
01:03:01Notice.
01:03:02That's okay.
01:03:03That's alright.
01:03:04We're still in it.
01:03:04We're still in it.
01:03:05We're still in it.
01:03:05No, it doesn't mean I'm done.
01:03:07That's it.
01:03:07It just puts me on edge for the rest of the day.
01:03:11Vince now joins Cody, Sophie and Harry on notice.
01:03:16The pressure to secure a spot in the top 21 is intensifying.
01:03:23It feels pretty surreal to be in the top 30 week.
01:03:29So will this place be full tomorrow?
01:03:31Yeah.
01:03:32Really?
01:03:32That's so exciting.
01:03:33Oh my God, that's so fun.
01:03:34I really, I really want to get to the top 21.
01:03:38How are you feeling about your song?
01:03:40Okay.
01:03:40But I feel like I'm really focused on my guitar playing and on the chords that I'm playing
01:03:44that I'm distracted from what I'm doing here.
01:03:47I don't know why you're worried about your guitar.
01:03:49I just feel like with Marcia's feedback and everything, I don't know.
01:03:52So what was the feedback?
01:03:54You know, Lily Grace, I can read the guys, but you're very difficult to read.
01:03:59So, you know, just give something of yourself.
01:04:04She's not getting the vibe yet.
01:04:06I don't know.
01:04:06I don't know if that has anything to do with your guitar.
01:04:09Yeah, I know.
01:04:09But I feel like it's because, like, it's hard to read me.
01:04:11I'm a bit closed off.
01:04:13Like, I don't know.
01:04:14For me, it feels and looks very natural.
01:04:17Okay.
01:04:17So, I mean, obviously the decision is yours.
01:04:22There's no room for mistakes.
01:04:24There's no room for mess ups with this solo challenge.
01:04:26You've got to do something to stand out or you're going home.
01:04:29It's tough.
01:04:32Here she is, the country singer from the Northern Rivers.
01:04:36Please welcome, Lily Grace.
01:04:47That's a great song.
01:04:50Oh, oh, oh.
01:04:53Come see about me.
01:04:57I'll be alone, dancing and you know it, baby.
01:05:01Tell me your troubles and doubts.
01:05:05Giving me everything inside and out.
01:05:09Oh, oh.
01:05:09Don't you forget about me
01:05:14Don't, don't, don't, don't
01:05:18Don't you forget about me
01:05:24Will you stand above me?
01:05:29Look my way, never love me

01:09:06Run to me, run to me
01:09:09Yay!
01:09:10Yeah!
01:09:12For the solo challenge
01:09:13I'll be singing
01:09:14Because You Love Me
01:09:15By Celine Dion
01:09:16Which is a huge song
01:09:17This is obviously a special song for you
01:09:20There's definitely a special connection to it
01:09:22I want to leave the stage
01:09:23Knowing I didn't leave anything behind
01:09:25Yeah
01:09:25The lyrics to the song are about
01:09:27You know, someone loving you
01:09:29Through it all
01:09:30Through thick and thin
01:09:31When I'm singing it
01:09:32I'm really thinking about my wife
01:09:37And, you know
01:09:38Everything we've been through
01:09:39Throughout our entire journey of love
01:09:43Make sure you take that second
01:09:44When you get out there
01:09:45To just take a breath
01:09:47Of course
01:09:47Give them the look
01:09:48They'll send me off
01:09:49Yep
01:09:50Okay, sure
01:09:50Here we go
01:09:51Good luck
01:09:52Thank you

01:10:17You stood by me
01:10:19Through all the doors
01:10:21That you made me see
01:10:22Through all the doors
01:10:24You brought to my life
01:10:26For all the wrong
01:10:28That you may right
01:10:30For every dream
01:10:32You may come true
01:10:34For all the love
01:10:36I found in you
01:10:38I'm everything I am
01:10:42Because you love me
01:10:47You were always there for me
01:10:50The tender wind that carried me
01:10:54The light in the dark
01:10:57Shining your love into my life
01:11:01You've been my inspiration
01:11:05Through the lies
01:11:07You were the truth
01:11:09My world's a better place
01:11:13Because of you
01:11:16You were the truth
01:11:18You were my sin
01:11:19When I was weak
01:11:20You were my voice
01:11:23When you come string
01:11:24I'm honest
01:11:27And I'm from you
01:11:28You saw the best
01:11:31That was me
01:11:32Lifted me up
01:11:34When I'm crazy
01:11:36You gave me faith
01:11:38Because you believe I'm everything I am
01:11:48because you love me.
01:12:01Oh, look everyone go down.
01:12:03Oh, my god.
01:12:06Wow.
01:12:13Oh, my god.
01:12:15Am I crying?
01:12:19Let me just gather myself.
01:12:21Tracey's up here crying.
01:12:22We're not OK.
01:12:25We're all not OK.
01:12:26No, we're not.
01:12:27Trey, Trey, Trey.
01:12:31That was, oh, my gosh.
01:12:34Oh.
01:12:38I'm dead, that's it.
01:12:40I'm done.
01:12:43Oh, baby.
01:12:45Oh, lord.
01:12:46I can't.
01:12:47I can't.
01:12:48I can't handle this.
01:12:50I'm going to pop it back on.
01:12:51My ovaries.
01:12:54Trey, that was just a sight to behold, my friend.
01:12:59That was incredibly well executed.
01:13:02I felt every word.
01:13:04You're an absolute professional.
01:13:06I would ask, but I kind of know who you're singing that to.
01:13:11Well, I can take a rough guess, but you can.
01:13:13I definitely have my girls in mind.
01:13:15My beautiful wife, Victoria, is sitting there.
01:13:17It's my daughter, Silas, and I've got another daughter at home named Annie.
01:13:21Yeah, I locked eyes with them at the start, and I got all choked up, so I was dealing with
01:13:25that in the beginning.
01:13:27Yeah.
01:13:28Yeah.
01:13:28It's very special.
01:13:29Beautiful.
01:13:30Wow.
01:13:37I'm so pleased that you're here, Trey, because what you're representing is, you know, the
01:13:41strength of a man and the strength of a father and a husband.
01:13:45I think it's the most beautiful thing, and you sang from your heart, how can I say anything
01:13:50but yes.
01:13:51That was beautiful, man.
01:13:52Beautiful.
01:13:53Thank you so much.
01:13:56Are you okay to speak now?
01:13:58I am.
01:13:58You okay?
01:14:00I think I've recovered.
01:14:02Um, Trey, you moved everyone.
01:14:05You moved us, and we felt that.
01:14:08We felt who you were singing to, and we felt the love, and you are amazing.
01:14:14Wow.
01:14:14Just tell him, Jessie.
01:14:16Just tell him.
01:14:19Welcome to the Top 21!
01:14:23Thank you, guys.
01:14:26Sure, sure, sure, sure.
01:14:29Woo!
01:14:31Yes!
01:14:39We love you so much.
01:14:41I'm so amazing.
01:14:43I think it just makes it so much more emotional when you have the support system behind you.
01:14:48So yeah, I'm very lucky.
01:14:50These are happy tears.
01:15:13Oh, mic drop.
01:15:16Wanting it isn't enough.
01:15:17You're only as good as your last performance.
01:15:21That's one of the best voices I've ever heard.
01:15:24But who will risk it all with their own version of Thriller?
01:15:30I get what you did, but I kind of wish you hadn't.
01:15:35All new Idol, tomorrow, 7.30.
