00:00:01It's our epic transformation week on Idol and tonight our singers have their eyes on the prize.
00:00:07A place in the top 12.
00:00:09The stakes have never been higher.
00:00:13Brace yourself for mega makeovers and powerful performances.
00:00:17This is...
00:00:19Australian Idol!
00:00:37Hello Australia, I'm Ricky Lee.
00:00:40And I'm Scott Tweedy.
00:00:41It's the second night of Transformation Week and we've already elevated Kesha, Lily Grace, Charlie and Samella into the top
00:00:5012.
00:00:50And four more coveted spots are still up for grabs.
00:00:54Tonight more singers will step onto this stage with a new song, a new look, a new confidence to prove
00:01:01they should sing again at next week's live shows where you begin voting for your Australian Idol.
00:01:08And deciding who gets there are our top tier trio.
00:01:11Give it up for your Australian Idol judges!
00:01:15cheers!
00:01:21cheers!
00:01:23cheers!
00:01:24Carl Sanderlands!
00:01:25Marsha Hines!
00:01:27Amy Shark!
00:01:29laugh!
00:01:34louder than last night!
00:01:36Crazy crowds again tonight!
00:01:40Oh judges!
00:01:42Oh judges!
00:01:43cheers!
00:01:52All right, our singers have been preparing a playlist of hits from legends like Fleetwood
00:02:02Mack, The Killers, Ed Sheeran and many more.
00:02:05And after all of tonight's performances, the judges will decide who deserves a spot in
00:02:10the top 12 live shows.
00:02:12And of course, we can't forget about the Fast Pass Scotty.
00:02:17Oh, that is right.
00:02:18If a judge believes a singer truly belongs in the top 12, they can use their Fast Pass
00:02:22to send them straight there, despite what the other judges may think.
00:02:26Last night, Marsha used her one and only Fast Pass for Charlie and the crowd went wild.
00:02:33Take a look at this.
00:02:36Charlie, I'm going to give you my Fast Pass.
00:02:49Yes!
00:02:50Yeah!
00:02:52Yeah!
00:02:53Yeah!
00:02:54What?
00:02:54Yes!
00:02:56What a moment!
00:03:01Congratulations, Charlie.
00:03:03Now, Kyle and Amy still have their Fast Pass to use on any singer at any time over the next
00:03:09two nights.
00:03:09Amy, you still have your Fast Pass.
00:03:12How will you know when it's the right time to use it?
00:03:15I was close last night.
00:03:16Were you?
00:03:17Yeah.
00:03:17I actually forgot I had it for a second.
00:03:19But no, I feel like I don't want to overthink it.
00:03:22I think it's just going to happen.
00:03:23As soon as I see it, I'm going to know.
00:03:26You're going to feel it.
00:03:27I'm going to feel it.
00:03:28Kyle, the judges are in charge of determining the top 12 and then it's over to Australia
00:03:32to vote.
00:03:33How essential is it to ensure that the right people go through to the top 12?
00:03:37I'm pretty confident in the Australian public.
00:03:39For the last couple of years, they always seem to have got it right.
00:03:42Yeah.
00:03:42Remember the early years?
00:03:43I think we've got to change the format.
00:03:45These are the public.
00:03:46But we couldn't.
00:03:48But you've got to remember, you want these people to be able to go forward, have a career.
00:03:51They've got to be marketable.
00:03:53They've got to really be into this.
00:03:54This isn't a one year and over thing.
00:03:57They want to make this their living.
00:03:59Yes.
00:03:59They've got to work hard.
00:04:00Okay, everybody, are you ready to get into it?
00:04:03Are we good to go?
00:04:04Yeah.
00:04:06Yes, we are.
00:04:07All right.
00:04:07Well, first up, it's our 19-year-old bartender who is shaking things up for her performance
00:04:13this week.
00:04:14All the way from Fremantle in WA, it's Harriet.
00:04:22Harriet, our bartender from WA.
00:04:26That was amazing.
00:04:31Being in the top 21 is a lot of pressure.
00:04:34But if my younger self could see me right now, I know that she would be very proud.
00:04:42As a kid, I had a very creative mind.
00:04:45I love dressing up with my sister.
00:04:47It was really good.
00:04:49I like to dress up in a very different way now.
00:04:52I'm not completely opposed to dressing up more, but ball gowns are quite a step for me.
00:04:58Quite a step.
00:04:59Yeah.
00:04:59I'm really excited for Transformation Week and having the help to define my image.
00:05:04If I can manage to get like the 70s boho vibe mixed in with the pop girlies.
00:05:09So we're going to create Harriet's brand.
00:05:11That's the goal.
00:05:12One thing I say is if you look good, you then feel good and you perform.
00:05:16Yeah.
00:05:17I think I'm just really excited to walk out on that stage and look like everything little
00:05:21me ever dreamed of being.
00:05:23And she'd think I'm really cool.
00:05:25Hey, Harriet.
00:05:26Hello.
00:05:26How are you?
00:05:27How are you going?
00:05:28Good.
00:05:29Thanks.
00:05:29How are you?
00:05:30Great.
00:05:30Welcome to Top 21.
00:05:32For Top 21, I'm singing I'm With You by Avril Lavigne, which is really going to be taking
00:05:37it up a notch.
00:05:38That's a big sing.
00:05:39It is a big sing.
00:05:40I'm with you.
00:05:41It's kind of soaring vocals there.
00:05:44You might not be able to hit those top notes.
00:05:45The top notes are worrying me a little bit.
00:05:47I do an octave, so it's higher than the original.
00:05:52I'm with you.
00:05:56I probably never pushed myself this hard.
00:05:59How's it feeling?
00:06:01Can't hit it.
00:06:01Yeah, yeah.
00:06:02Is that because you're not hearing the beat?
00:06:04It's not because I'm not hearing it.
00:06:06It's just...
00:06:07Each time it's been slightly pitchy, so I want you to come in with complete confidence.
00:06:13I get it's a big sing, but yeah, just have that in the back of your mind.
00:06:16Okay.
00:06:17This is something that I've wanted since, you know, I was very little.
00:06:21So, I just really want to make sure that this next performance is better than anything
00:06:25I've done before if I want to make it into the top 12.
00:06:30She's used to serving drinks from behind the bar, but tonight she's serving a whole new look for a shot
00:06:36at the top 12.
00:06:37So, the crowd are loving it.
00:06:40From Fremantle in WA, this is Harriet.
00:06:50I'm standing on the bridge, waiting in the dark, thought that you'd be here by now.
00:06:58There's nothing but the rain, no footsteps on the ground.
00:07:04I'm listening, but there's no sound.
00:07:10Isn't anyone trying to find me?
00:07:13Won't somebody come take me home?
00:07:19It's a damn cold night, trying to figure out this life.
00:07:29Won't you take me home?
00:07:31Won't you take me by the hand, take me somewhere new?
00:07:34I don't know who you are, but I...
00:07:39I'm with you.
00:07:44I'm with you.
00:07:48Why is everything so confusing?
00:07:53Maybe I'm just out of my mind.
00:07:58Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:08:06It's a damn cold night, trying to figure out this life.
00:08:16Won't you take me by the hand, take me somewhere new?
00:08:21I don't know who you are, but I...
00:08:25I'm with you.
00:08:30I'm with you.
00:08:35I don't know who you are, but I...
00:08:40I'm with you.

00:09:12it
00:09:12was when you did the rehearsals and the patience and the stillness that you can find in rehearsals

00:14:05what's happening for you what do you need uh i felt like i was a bit out of time
00:14:10timing with rap is probably the most important thing if you're not on time that causes you to

00:20:54could be on australian idol being accepted by something as big as idol i think is a really
00:21:00important milestone for people like me who don't really get into what people think a singer should
00:21:05be how's that i'm just gonna get used to the moving but it felt a little bit strange i think
00:21:12i am yet hesitant to really open up and really let myself just be it is scary it's scary i
00:21:18just
00:21:18don't want you to hold back don't don't go oh no it's too much don't hesitate that jacinta's
00:21:23gone now we just need to let her go i'm gonna have to really learn to be comfortable being
00:21:28uncomfortable in order to really connect with the 1500 people but that's the way i grew
00:21:33confidence yes confidence shoulders back yes i have spent a lot of time hiding in the shadows

00:25:46It's quite saucy, even though you've got your arms and legs still covered.
00:25:49I know.
00:25:50So it's still you.
00:25:51And when they're calling out your name, Jacinta, they're going to sing it forever.
00:25:55That was brilliant.
00:25:56I loved it.
00:25:58Thank you so much.
00:25:59Welcome to show business.
00:26:01You know, Jacinta, you sure you ain't got a twin because I don't think that's you.
00:26:05I mean, like, what the hey?
00:26:08You look wonderful.
00:26:10Thank you so much.
00:26:11You're more than welcome.
00:26:12And, you know, look, girlfriend, there's a little bit of sexy happening here.
00:26:16You look beautiful and you sung so well.
00:26:19I'm so happy for you.
00:26:20And the shadows, forget the shadows.
00:26:21Welcome to the light, honey.
00:26:23Thank you, Martha.
00:26:26I like that.
00:26:29I didn't, I, even when you were walking out, I was like, is it her?
00:26:34Are we sure we've got the right person?
00:26:36Like, you just look phenomenal.
00:26:38And you look really comfortable, too.
00:26:40It's amazing what a brush and a bit of makeup does.
00:26:42Yeah, I know, right?
00:26:44It's unbelievable.
00:26:45It's like, you're unstoppable now, babe.
00:26:47Let's go.
00:26:47Thank you so much, Amy.
00:26:50Well done.
00:26:53Jacinta, Jacinta, Jacinta.
00:26:55Look at you.
00:26:55You're a smoke show.
00:26:56This was, you look amazing.
00:26:58Thank you, Ricky.
00:26:59How are you feeling after that performance?
00:27:01I'm buzzing.
00:27:02It's so cool to come out and see all these faces here and just, you know, have my moment
00:27:07because I love being here, you know.
00:27:09Music is my space and my heart and, yeah, it's just, it's such a surreal experience, honestly.
00:27:14It was amazing.
00:27:15You had everyone up on their feet at the end of that performance.
00:27:18I mean, you look absolutely incredible.
00:27:20And I do reckon you'd be able to bust that out while driving the forklift, like, backing
00:27:25it in somewhere.
00:27:26Yeah.
00:27:27Your mum and twin sister, Marcia.
00:27:30Oh, what?
00:27:31I knew it.
00:27:31Are in the audience tonight.
00:27:34What did you think of this amazing transformation?
00:27:37I'm just blown away.
00:27:39I just cried.
00:27:40I can't believe how gorgeous you look, Jacinta, and it just complements your beautiful voice
00:27:45and that performance was next level.
00:27:48So proud.
00:27:49Thanks.
00:27:52All right, everybody, one more time.
00:27:54Make some noise for Jacinta.
00:28:00Wow.
00:28:01Well, up next on this very stage, he's the singing barber from Ballarat.
00:28:07After the break, Harry is styling up and sounding out a spot in the top 12.
00:28:13Will he get there?
00:28:14Only the judges will decide.
00:28:26This is Idol Transformation Week and our singers are getting the complete makeover as they fight
00:28:32for a spot in the top 12.
00:28:34We're talking brave choices on sound, style, fashion, hairdos, my personal favourite.
00:28:40Yes, we have both had some unique, shall I say, hair sales over the years.
00:28:47I would say this is one of my best.
00:28:50Oh, my Lord.
00:28:53Kath and Kim.
00:28:55That, right.
00:28:56What is that?
00:28:56That was supposed to look like Diana Ross hair.
00:28:58Oh, whoa.
00:28:59And they stitched me up big time.
00:29:01Yeah, they did.
00:29:02That is beautiful.
00:29:03Scotty, your mum sent something to me.
00:29:07She slid into my DMs, your mum.
00:29:09She sent me this on.
00:29:10Oh, my God.
00:29:13Who's that?
00:29:14What were you thinking, Scotty T?
00:29:15The curls were trying to get the girls at the time.
00:29:18Did they?
00:29:19No, it didn't work.
00:29:20Oh, God.
00:29:21It looks like you've been electrocuted.
00:29:23Yeah, it's pretty retro, isn't it?
00:29:24It looks like it's from, like, 1952.
00:29:27How old are you?
00:29:29Never be revealed.
00:29:31Transformation Week.
00:29:32I can't tell you that.
00:29:33Well, speaking of hair, our next singer is our barber from Ballarat.
00:29:38He's normally styling up others, but for Transformation Week,
00:29:42let's see how he feels when the shoe is on the other foot.
00:29:45Here's Harry.
00:29:52Your voice is stunning.
00:29:54You're great.
00:29:54I can.
00:29:56So, Harry, let's talk all about your hair.
00:29:59It's funny for me to talk about hair, actually, because I'm a barber myself.
00:30:03Yeah, I feel like I've had so many different hairstyles over the years.
00:30:07They've been pretty experimental.
00:30:10Transformation Week is all about levelling up
00:30:12and sort of bringing the image to kind of match
00:30:14the internal part of our performance.
00:30:16What are you singing this week?
00:30:18I'm doing Somebody Told Me by The Killers.
00:30:21You want a bit more?
00:30:21Yeah.
00:30:22Down that rock star kind of lane.
00:30:23Hair thrashing.
00:30:25Bit of hair thrashing.
00:30:26On stage.
00:30:27Go on, shot.
00:30:28I'm breaking my back just to know your name.
00:30:34It's one thing to look like a rock star,
00:30:35but if you're not really feeling like one,
00:30:37you're never going to sort of connect with the audience.
00:30:44You look like the most unsure rock star ever.
00:30:47That's what I felt.
00:30:48Really?
00:30:49Okay.
00:30:49We'll do a little exercise right now.
00:30:51Look me in the eyes.
00:30:58Just like this.
00:31:01Great.
00:31:02That's so awkward.
00:31:03The first thing you do is like...
00:31:04Yeah, I know.
00:31:06I've always found it a little bit hard to sort of resonate with the crowd.
00:31:09The judges have been very critical of my stage performance.
00:31:12We didn't see you.
00:31:13You know, you were sort of into the neck of the guitar.
00:31:16We need to see who you are.
00:31:19You've just got to connect.
00:31:21Find somebody to look at.
00:31:23Yep.
00:31:23It's so rock star to me.
00:31:25I think the physical transformation will definitely help me feel a little bit more the part.
00:31:29I know I can do it.
00:31:31I've watched people do it my whole life.
00:31:32Embody the transformation.
00:31:34You've got to feel it.
00:31:35Yes.
00:31:35In your bones.
00:31:36If I can't channel the look to match the sound, it's the end of the road.
00:31:44He's the Ballarat barber that's dropped his scissors to start cutting up the stage.
00:31:51With a rock star song and a rock star swagger, it's Harry.
00:32:10Reaking my back just to know your name.
00:32:1417 tracks and I've had it with this game.
00:32:20Reaking my back just to know your name.
00:32:24We're giving it close in a place like this.
00:32:27Anything goes, but don't blame you madman
00:32:33Cause heaven ain't close in a place like this
00:32:37I said heaven ain't close in a place like this
00:32:40Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight
00:32:47I never thought I'd let a world ruin my flight
00:32:53Somebody told me you had a boyfriend that looked like a girlfriend
00:32:58That I had in February of last year
00:33:02It's not confidential, I've got potential
00:33:05I'm rushing around
00:33:07Face yourself for me
00:33:13Well I said baby, baby
00:33:20I just don't know now
00:33:27That all I wanna do is try
00:33:32Somebody told me you had a boyfriend
00:33:35You look like a girlfriend
00:33:37That I had in February of last year
00:33:41It's not confidential, I've got potential
00:33:43I'm rushing around
00:33:45Somebody told me you had a boyfriend
00:33:49You look like a girlfriend
00:33:51That I had in February of last year
00:33:54It's not confidential, I've got potential
00:33:57I'm rushing, I'm rushing around
00:34:14It's not confidential
00:34:15Harry, wow!
00:34:17I went on a real journey then
00:34:19because when I saw you were gonna do this
00:34:21and you're going for the rockstar vibe
00:34:23I got, I just, I don't know, I got nervous
00:34:25because we know how we've seen you before
00:34:26and like real folky but when you came out hearing your voice man it's so unique like if I any
00:34:36band
00:34:37out there would just that to be a front man you've that was really awesome okay thank you so
00:34:43like I thought I actually thought that really suited you until you started moving and the only
00:34:50reason I say it is because in my head I'm like oh that was his stage directions and I don't
00:34:55want to
00:34:55think that like sometimes when you move around that the goal is to make it look like no one said
00:35:00go hit this point hit this point look I don't want to think about that and this is what this
00:35:06show does
00:35:06this is how this is why this show is great is because by the time you finish it you you
00:35:11you master
00:35:11that and people don't notice that people like us don't notice that because we're like wow they're
00:35:16just in the zone they know their marks and it's not obvious until you did that right um it was
00:35:22so
00:35:22solid man like you really you've got something really cool going on um so just I know that's
00:35:28a bit of both yeah but all in all really really great show thanks so much
00:35:40Harry in many ways I disagree with Amy because I'm so glad you came out from behind that microphone
00:35:48you know the guitar's a great thing but so many people hide behind it and I said that to you
00:35:53I
00:35:54want to see you Harry and you actually stepped out okay you've been told what to do and how to
00:35:59do it
00:35:59but welcome to the industry that is the industry that we're in and it's all new to you and um
00:36:05your
00:36:06voice is the bomb that's a great rock and roll voice man thank you so much like fantastic it's one
00:36:14of the
00:36:14most um interesting and exciting rock and roll voices I've heard for a long time and I I really did
00:36:21appreciate and adore you you did great man thank you so much you're welcome you're welcome
00:36:29Harry great haircut let me just say far better than the last time we saw you not that you're ever
00:36:34ugly but that's a good looking boy good looking boy yeah um listen I'm with Amy and Marsha so what
00:36:44you did wrong is when Amy said when you moved and when it looked like you were following stage direction
00:36:49you were yeah so all you've got to do is instead of being a gentle little boy putting the microphone
00:36:54flip that stand oh you know what I mean you don't see Bon Jovi gently placing like when you move
00:37:02you
00:37:02lean into that microphone and when you're down with the audience you feel the music you get down with
00:37:08listen and feel that music yeah yeah that's the only difference because it looked like you were
00:37:12doing a walkthrough rehearsal that's all you need just going off what Marsha said when you go on
00:37:20there are like award shows that you need to be able to hit those marks but that and I'm glad
00:37:25you did
00:37:25it too but what I all I was saying was just make it look like we're not seeing natural make
00:37:31it look
00:37:31like what Carl said and keep it sexy Harry you know I mean because you're a good looking guy
00:37:36work that stage honey work those women you work that air yeah
00:37:44it's getting all hot and steamy up here my goodness Harry how was that for you it's good I
00:37:50definitely understood what Amy and Kyle was saying about the stage I felt like I was a little bit
00:37:55sort of unnatural with it yeah so I definitely have to work on that but I really felt happy with
00:37:59how the voice was yeah other than that did it feel good yeah it felt great yeah like to change
00:38:04the
00:38:04style and it's been like a lot of fun what did you guys think so far you've been you know
00:38:13the more
00:38:13slow indie guitar guy but tonight you transformed into a rock star do you think we should we'll be
00:38:20seeing like more of this Harry as you progress further in the competition if you progress further
00:38:25yeah absolutely I really loved it I did like a lot of fun kind of getting out and even though
00:38:29it was
00:38:30a little bit unnatural I had a great time kind of getting in and around everyone and all right well
00:38:34fingers crossed we get to see rock star Harry hit the stage again if the judges decide to put him
00:38:40through to the top 12 give it up for Harry all right well we are over the halfway mark forcing
00:38:52us down three to go then we'll find out who's through to next week's live shows don't forget
00:38:58the judges each have one fast pass to instantly send their favorite into the next round Marsha used
00:39:05hers last night but there's still two more at play coming up on transformation week it's Harlan
00:39:15he's the 18 year old big ballad singer from Breezy he has chosen an epic song and I can guarantee
00:39:24you have never heard it sound like this his must-see performance is next on Idol
00:39:41welcome back to Idol where it's been a big night but it's about to get a whole lot bigger
00:39:46I'm here with Harlan's family mum and dad Mariah and Rowan Mariah you must be so excited to see
00:39:53and so proud of Harlan can't wait to see him perform tonight and his transformation it's going to be
00:39:58incredible but I've got to ask dad he's got such a big voice his stage presence is top-notch does
00:40:04he get it from you definitely not are you sure yeah definitely not all right well let's check out
00:40:11how Harlan's went with his preparation for transformation week
00:40:19the audience was mesmerized by you it's remarkable what you just did
00:40:24being in the top 21 of Australian Idol was amazing
00:40:27my Australian Idol opens my fruit shop it's not really mine it's Skippy
00:40:31since my audition I started working at Skippy's Farmhouse a fruit shop in Cleveland
00:40:40I love the people that I've been really appreciative of yeah their help and their
00:40:45support but the dream is to be on stage not packing fruit that's why I'm here
00:40:50hi how are you nice to see you again
00:40:53yeah how you going good thank you good tell me about your song this week for transformation week
00:40:59so I am singing chain reaction by Dinah Ross so what are you thinking for this song are we going
00:41:04to do the original like get down and boogie disco version
00:41:08maybe not I'm feeling power ballad wow okay yeah so transforming the song that's your transformation
00:41:17yeah it's it's it's definitely a risk because yes everyone knows it as a disco song
00:41:24and you made me want
00:41:27I have got a lot of big holding parts and like a lot of long phrases in a very high
00:41:32part of my range and it is very very very hard to sing I do feel like this is
00:41:38like probably the biggest song you've sung yeah it's not easy yeah it's it's um it's a real stretch
00:41:46yeah yeah what's the worst that could happen um I was leaving a voice crack
00:41:53okay you ready to give it a go yes ma'am and they're the most humiliating thing ever
00:41:59you can blow your voice in a sound check or rehearsal and do stuff for the performance
00:42:03so it's that stamina and agility that you need to focus on I don't know I went too hard that
00:42:07one
00:42:08I think you need to yeah just pull back when you need to I mean we are at rehearsals and
00:42:14obviously
00:42:14you want to practice as hard as you can but you just need to stay in that safe place yeah
00:42:19it's
00:42:19a big song it's a big sing I can blow it out and it's very scary like especially when you're
00:42:25taking
00:42:25such a big risk but big risk big reward hopefully I really want to make it to top 12 this
00:42:33is what I want
00:42:43I want to make it to top 12 this is what I want to make it to top 12 this

00:48:44Yes
00:48:44For her
00:48:47You are incredible
00:48:48And I mean 18 years old
00:48:50Like the judges said

00:48:52And we can't wait to see you perform again live next week
00:48:56Congratulations
00:48:56Thank you
00:49:10With limited spots left in the top 12
00:49:13Our next performer knows it's all or nothing
00:49:17This girl with the curl oozes style and sophistication
00:49:22Right now she's backstage preparing for the performance of her life
00:49:26Our model from Melbourne Sophie is up next
00:49:29Don't go anywhere
00:49:40Welcome back to Idol
00:49:41Where our judges are deciding who should sing again at next week's live shows
00:49:46Already safely there are these four
00:49:49Kesha, Lily, Grace, Charlie and Samella
00:49:51Who made it through last night
00:49:53Kesha, how are you feeling safely into the top 12?
00:49:56Oh my gosh, I feel a sense of relief
00:49:59And I'm just so grateful and excited to be on this journey with these amazing contestants
00:50:04Isn't it cool to watch
00:50:06And Lily Grace, you've got one of the best seats in the house right up here
00:50:08Any thoughts on the competition tonight?
00:50:11Scotty, I do have one of the best seats
00:50:12And I just want to say that everyone has just been like ridiculously good
00:50:16Can we have a round of applause again for how good everyone is tonight?
00:50:20Ultimate hype woman
00:50:22Well, hoping to join this lot into the top 12 is our next singer
00:50:26She's our model from Melbourne
00:50:28It's Sophie
00:50:36I love your style, I love you
00:50:40My journey on Idol has not really been an easy one
00:50:43Yeah, it's been pretty difficult from the start
00:50:46I didn't expect a young, beautiful, vibrant, structured, model-looking girl
00:50:51To come in and sing old, sad lady songs
00:50:54That's just not going to cut it
00:50:56In Top 30 Week, I got put on notice twice
00:50:59When you're on television, you actually need to lift a little more
00:51:04You have such an amazing look and a demanding presence
00:51:08What's going wrong is your conviction
00:51:11I may seem like a confident person, but that really rocked me
00:51:15Getting put up twice
00:51:16Yeah, this is definitely kind of like third strike
00:51:19So I definitely have a little bit to prove
00:51:23Hi
00:51:23Oh, hey girl
00:51:25How are you?
00:51:25Good, how you doing?
00:51:26Good, thanks
00:51:26So yeah, my song this week is Betty Davis Eyes
00:51:29Okay
00:51:30Sung by Kim Khans
00:51:31I think Betty Davis Eyes has such an attitude to it
00:51:35And a sass that I definitely connect with
00:51:37And yeah, just drawing inspiration from her
00:51:39Okay, I'm trying to like draw a conceptual idea of transformation week outfit
00:51:44What are you thinking?
00:51:45I mean, I'm thinking we have to kind of shift the look a little bit
00:51:47Because I think this transformation could mean a lot of things
00:51:51I really want to more take on the inspiration from the title Betty Davis
00:51:55Okay
00:51:56And kind of who she is
00:51:57There's definitely qualities of like just having so much power being a woman
00:52:00And I think that's just really beautiful, I think
00:52:03To go on stage and kind of step into that kind of character
00:52:16So we want icon Sophie, we want model Sophie in all of those moments
00:52:22If you're going to do something you just got to commit
00:52:24Yeah
00:52:24You walk with purpose always
00:52:28There is of course part of me that's doubting a little bit
00:52:30Sometimes hearing feedback that I need to be more and more and more
00:52:34I'm like okay, okay
00:52:37Thought I was doing that but I keep hearing it
00:52:44Go nuts, all the sass, all the Betty Davis
00:52:46Alright, cute, all the Betty Davis
00:52:47Okay, all the Betty Davis
00:52:48I'ma be her
00:52:49Okay
00:52:49You won't even recognise me for her
00:52:52She's got Betty Davis out
00:52:55The road definitely has been a little bit bumpy in my journey for sure
00:52:58And like constantly fighting to, you know, prove myself
00:53:03She's got Betty Davis out
00:53:05Knowing this could be my last chance
00:53:07I'm just going to give her everything I've got
00:53:09And I don't give up easy
00:53:12She turns the music
00:53:15If I can't prove conviction tonight
00:53:17My top 12 dreams are over
00:53:19And I'm going home
00:53:25She's our Melbourne model
00:53:27Looking fierce, fearless and absolutely fabulous
00:53:31Her mum is proudly cheering her on from the audience
00:53:34Singing the global smash hit, Betty Davis eyes
00:53:38This is Sophie
00:53:48Her hair was hollow gold
00:53:52Her lips are sweet surprise
00:53:56Her hands are never cold
00:54:00She's got Betty Davis eyes
00:54:04She'll turn her music on, yeah
00:54:08You won't have to think twice
00:54:12She's pure as New York snow
00:54:15She's got Betty Davis eyes
00:54:23She's got Betty Davis eyes
00:54:29She's the air
00:54:31She's the air
00:54:48She
00:54:48She'll let you take her home
00:54:53It was her appetite
00:54:57She'll lay you on her throne
00:55:00She's got Betty Davis eyes
00:55:05She'll expose you
00:55:07When she's known you
00:55:09Off your feet with the crown
00:55:12She throws you
00:55:13She's ferocious
00:55:15And she knows just what it takes
00:55:19To make a problem
00:55:22All the boys say
00:55:24She's a spy
00:55:25She's got Betty Davis eyes
00:55:35Oh, you've got
00:55:38Yeah, I've got
00:55:39Oh, me and girls
00:55:41She's got Betty Davis eyes
00:56:02Sophie, wow
00:56:04Thank you
00:56:05You look and sound expensive
00:56:09I like it
00:56:11I don't kiss and tell
00:56:14That was really cool, man
00:56:16Thank you
00:56:17Yeah, I mean
00:56:18The thing is
00:56:20We have put you through it
00:56:23We've run you around a little bit
00:56:26But I think it's paid off
00:56:27Because I thought that was slick
00:56:29I thought you looked really confident
00:56:31You should be really proud of that
00:56:32Thank you
00:56:33Thank you guys
00:56:35These were great

00:56:49Thank you so much
00:56:50Yeah, look

00:56:54One of my favourite songs in the world
00:56:56No way
00:56:56Yeah, way
00:56:57It's just one of those great songs

00:57:02Thank you so much

00:57:15Whoa, what's going on here?
00:57:17That was the best stage work
00:57:19I've pretty much ever seen on this show
00:57:21You obviously bring that from your background
00:57:23You've got a great voice
00:57:25And I'd play that version
00:57:26Of that song on the radio
00:57:28I can hear it at a festival
00:57:30Let's go
00:57:30I can hear it working again

00:57:35That you like designed your own costume
00:57:37Yes

00:57:39Draw their own outfit
00:57:40Because I didn't see it
00:57:41But that's
00:57:41That's a level of expertise
00:57:43You bring
00:57:44From your previous life into this

00:57:47Very rewarding for you

01:00:28In Karratha
01:00:30So this is where I'm getting
01:00:32My hair and makeup done
01:00:34It's a bit over my head
01:00:36To be honest
01:00:36I don't really even know
01:00:38What all of it's for
01:00:41I don't know if I was meant to do that
01:00:44I've seen a cone before
01:00:45You don't see any guys
01:00:47Walking around with makeup on
01:00:49In Karratha
01:00:49Not that that's a problem
01:00:50But you just don't
01:00:53I'm just a kid from a small town
01:00:56Not long ago
01:00:57I was just like
01:00:58Fishing my dad
01:00:59And now from my audition
01:01:01Vance Joy knows who I am
01:01:03Hey Cody

01:01:21Transformation week
01:01:22Tell me about your song
01:01:23What are you singing?
01:01:24I'm singing Castle on the Hill
01:01:26By Ed Sheeran
01:01:26Great
01:01:27Ed Sheeran's like my idol
01:01:29The song speaks a lot about
01:01:31Going home and old memories
01:01:32And I'm kind of like
01:01:34Dedicating this song to
01:01:36Back home
01:01:37I was younger then
01:01:40Saved me back to an eye
01:01:46This point you're kind of like
01:01:47You're playing it
01:01:48And you love the song
01:01:49And that's great
01:01:50But now we just need to know
01:01:52How you connect to it
01:01:53We just want that to come across
01:01:55If I can't ground myself
01:01:57In this performance
01:01:58It would go exactly like
01:01:59The solo performance did
01:02:01You're dreaming big
01:02:02You're trying to chase that
01:02:03And I don't think
01:02:04I saw that on the stage
01:02:07Today
01:02:08You need to take it back to
01:02:09The smell of home
01:02:11The people that you come from
01:02:13Thanks very much
01:02:14Who are the people that ground you
01:02:16And thank you
01:02:17Yeah
01:02:18Yeah I kind of like
01:02:19I always like have my
01:02:20My mum and my sister with me
01:02:23Um
01:02:24They made this for me
01:02:26So
01:02:26That's beautiful
01:02:27I love that
01:02:28So yeah
01:02:29I come from like a calm place
01:02:31And I just need to like
01:02:32Remind myself
01:02:33Who I am
01:02:34And where I come from
01:02:36In those massive moments
01:02:38And that is what I'm going to be doing
01:02:40For this next performance
01:02:41And this is so important
01:02:47He may be from Outback Australia
01:02:50But tonight
01:02:50He's headed for centre stage
01:02:52With an incredible transformation
01:02:54From the dusty roads
01:02:56Of remote Western Australia
01:02:57To the dazzling lights of Idol
01:02:59This is Cody
01:03:07When I was six years old
01:03:09I broke my leg
01:03:13I was running
01:03:15From my brother
01:03:17And his friends
01:03:21And I tasted the sweet perfume
01:03:24Of the mountain grass
01:03:26I rolled down
01:03:27I was younger than
01:03:32Take me back to when
01:03:34I
01:03:35I found my heart
01:03:37And I broke it here
01:03:39Made friends and lost them
01:03:41Through the years
01:03:42I've not seen the roaring fields
01:03:46In so long
01:03:47I know I've grown
01:03:49But I can't wait to go home
01:03:54And I'm on my way
01:03:57Driving at 90 down
01:04:02Those country lanes
01:04:04Singing to a tiny dancer
01:04:08And I miss the way
01:04:11You make me feel
01:04:14It's real when we
01:04:16Watch this sunset
01:04:18Over the castle
01:04:22On the hill
01:04:26Over the castle
01:04:29On the hill
01:04:33Over the castle
01:04:36Over the castle
01:04:36On the hill
01:04:37Over the castle
01:04:40On the hill
01:04:40Over the castle
01:04:48On the hill
01:04:50Over the castle
01:04:51On the hill
01:04:52It's real when we watch the sun set
01:04:57Over the castle on the hill
01:05:18Now you are the same bloke we met at the auditions
01:05:21Because it feels like there's only half of you
01:05:23Have you done training, weight loss
01:05:26Like you look completely different
01:05:28It has been like a goal of mine
01:05:30To you know take this seriously
01:05:31Well I can't have someone show me up like that
01:05:33Because I've been pretending to lose weight for decades
01:05:36Yeah I've just did a lot of running you know
01:05:38Man well done
01:05:39That's commitment
01:05:41I love that you kept the eyebrows
01:05:42I appreciate it thank you so much
01:05:44Really good
01:05:46Look I've got to be honest
01:05:48I think you're great
01:05:50I think you've got a great voice
01:05:51I really love your energy
01:05:52And everything that you bring to the program
01:05:54I didn't really like the beginning
01:05:55The spoken word bit
01:05:57No fan of that spoken word thing
01:05:59And when you got into it
01:06:00And you were like
01:06:01You were out there on the corrugated dirt road
01:06:04That was the whole thing
01:06:05I sort of liked that bit
01:06:06And then so once you got into the vocal
01:06:09And you were singing and performing
01:06:10I loved it
01:06:11But I didn't
01:06:12I wasn't
01:06:13I was worried at the beginning
01:06:15When you were doing that
01:06:17Spoken word rhyme rubbish
01:06:19Amy what do you think?
01:06:20I kind of see what Kyle is trying to say
01:06:23I think it was just
01:06:26The start was a bit shaky
01:06:28When you hit your stride
01:06:30You really
01:06:31You brought the Cody that we know back
01:06:35But we've definitely seen you do a little better
01:06:39But we all know what you're capable of
01:06:42Like when I just watch you as an artist
01:06:46There is a lot of Ed resemblance
01:06:49Because you're
01:06:51You're so proud of where you're from
01:06:53And when I think about
01:06:55Especially the song you sang
01:06:56Like I don't mean to flex
01:06:58But I was in Ed's car
01:06:59When he like pointed
01:07:00And he said
01:07:01See that over there
01:07:02That's the castle on the hill
01:07:03He drives us all past that castle
01:07:05It's no big deal
01:07:06No you weren't there
01:07:07This is one flex I have
01:07:08We've all been in Ed's car
01:07:09Looking at the freaking castle
01:07:10No but he writes about his hometown
01:07:11That's what makes it so real
01:07:13Cody you're so real
01:07:14You're such a real artist
01:07:16We want everyone to win up there
01:07:19I don't know if that was your strongest performance
01:07:21But I know what you're capable of
01:07:23I just like
01:07:24It was just
01:07:25I have to agree
01:07:26It was just a shaky start
01:07:27But you definitely got there
01:07:28I appreciate that
01:07:30Thanks very much
01:07:35You look great Cody
01:07:36Appreciate that
01:07:37Thanks so much
01:07:38Oh no you need to own that
01:07:39Okay
01:07:40That's not an easy task
01:07:41I know
01:07:42It's quite remarkable
01:07:45Trust me
01:07:46That's why I'm looking at you
01:07:49You think I should put a bigger effort in?
01:07:51He said he's been running Kyle
01:08:01Go home
01:08:02Go home
01:08:03I think like a lot of
01:08:05So Cody you know look
01:08:06I was lucky enough to be at Ed Sheeran's concert
01:08:10With some very cool people
01:08:12And he sang that exact song
01:08:13He's an amazing storyteller
01:08:15You spoke about your family
01:08:17Whenever you get
01:08:18And that's what Jessica said to you
01:08:20Whenever you get on stage
01:08:21Just remember
01:08:22You're doing it for you
01:08:23But to represent your family

01:08:29I really appreciate that
01:08:30Thank you so much

01:08:34I feel like everyone's missing one super impressive thing
01:08:40The whistle
01:08:40Oh yeah
01:08:41I thought that was the backing vocalist
01:08:43No that was amazing
01:08:44That was sick
01:08:45I changed everything I said
01:08:46It was amazing
01:08:48That was cool
01:08:49I loved the whistle
01:08:49Wasn't that amazing?
01:08:50It was good

01:17:01It gets tougher
01:17:02And tougher
01:17:03And tougher
01:17:03But the final singer

01:18:51How's your time been with us
01:18:52On Idol
01:18:53It's been so incredible
01:18:54I came onto this show
01:18:55With two things that I
01:18:58Needed to remind myself throughout
01:19:00And that was
