00:00:25This is...
00:00:26Australia Rule!
00:00:43Hello, Australia. I'm Rikki Lee.
00:00:46And I'm Scott Tweedy.
00:00:48Tonight, our singers will deliver their most important performance
00:00:51of the competition so far,
00:00:53right here in front of the biggest audience ever.
00:01:00Wow.
00:01:01Wow.
00:01:02They are all getting an incredible makeover
00:01:05and choosing a song to show the judges
00:01:07why they are the total package
00:01:10and worthy of a place in the top 12.
00:01:13Deciding their fate tonight are the biggest names in the biz,
00:01:17your Australian Idol judges.
00:01:27Carl Sandilands.
00:01:29Marsha Hines.
00:01:32And Amy Sharp.
00:01:38Good evening, Scotty.
00:01:40Good evening, Rikki Lee.
00:01:42Here we go again.
00:01:46Is it getting louder in here?
00:01:48Huge.
00:01:49What a crowd.
00:01:51Looking good, judges.
00:01:54Wow.
00:01:56All right.
00:01:58Welcome, judges.
00:02:00Hey.
00:02:00Hi.
00:02:01All right.
00:02:01So, this is how tonight will go.
00:02:04Seven singers will perform.
00:02:05Then the judges will decide which four deserve to go through
00:02:09to next week's all-important live shows.
00:02:13But in this round,
00:02:15we also have the almighty Fast Pass.
00:02:20Yes.
00:02:21It is such a game-changer.
00:02:23With one decision,
00:02:24they can send an artist directly into the top 12,
00:02:27overriding the rest of the panel.
00:02:28All right, Scotty.
00:02:29Who wants a demonstration from Scotty?
00:02:31Scotty.
00:02:32Give us your Fast Pass, Scotty.
00:02:34This is what you're looking out for, everyone.
00:02:36Three, two, one.
00:02:38Fast Pass!
00:02:43You have more sub-office in here tonight?
00:02:45That was beautiful.
00:02:46That was really beautiful.
00:02:47Good graphics.
00:02:47All right.
00:02:48Each judge has only one Fast Pass,
00:02:50which can be used on any singer at any time
00:02:54over the next three nights.
00:02:56Amy, are you looking forward to seeing these amazing makeovers tonight?
00:03:00I am.
00:03:01This is, like, my favourite part because it's, like...
00:03:03I mean, everyone would love to be able to perform
00:03:06in an Adidas track suit.
00:03:07I tried to do it for a while.
00:03:08It doesn't work.
00:03:09You need to elevate.
00:03:09And, um, I think these guys are really going to show up tonight.
00:03:13I'm excited.
00:03:14100%.
00:03:15Marsha, the talent this year, incredible.
00:03:18It's not going to be easy to judge them, right?
00:03:20No, it's not.
00:03:21It's never easy to judge them.
00:03:23But the bottom line is we have done the best we can
00:03:26and I hope that the kids do too.
00:03:29That's what's really important.
00:03:30All we can do is the best we can do
00:03:32and that's exactly what they're going to do tonight.
00:03:35Absolutely.
00:03:35Yeah.
00:03:37Now, Kyle, it is more than just the vocals on Idol.
00:03:41You're looking for stage presence, confidence, charisma,
00:03:44the complete package, right?
00:03:45Plus the reverse energy that they can master from the crowd.
00:03:49Because a lot of people can sing,
00:03:51a lot of people can strut around and do their thing,
00:03:52but do they have the energy and the backing of the audience?
00:03:56That's a big part of making money out of this business.
00:03:58All right, well, we are going to find out tonight for sure.
00:04:01All right, well, let's kick things off
00:04:03with our very first singer of the night.
00:04:05This Adelaide school teacher and mother
00:04:07has blown us away every single time she performs.
00:04:12Her very first audition moved the judges to tears
00:04:15and got millions of views online.
00:04:18Will Samela style up and step up
00:04:21to secure a place in the top 12?
00:04:23Well, let's find out.
00:04:31I have never experienced an audition like that.
00:04:36Yeah, wow.
00:04:38Oh, you guys.
00:04:40Yeah, wow.
00:04:41Hello.
00:04:42How are you?
00:04:42Welcome to Top 21.
00:04:44How's this all looked here?
00:04:45It's huge.
00:04:46Okay.
00:04:46I'm excited.
00:04:47Yesterday I was doing kindy drop-off
00:04:49and teaching a Year 7 class
00:04:52and now I'm in the Top 21.
00:04:54I'm living a double life.
00:04:56It's unreal.
00:04:56I'm not sure if you know this yet,
00:04:58but you are our first performer
00:05:02of Top 21, Transformation Week.
00:05:04Good.
00:05:07Oh, my.
00:05:08First one.
00:05:09Yeah, first one.
00:05:10We're good.
00:05:10You got this.
00:05:11You got this.
00:05:12Okay.
00:05:12For Transformation Week, I'm singing Alive by Sia.
00:05:15This song is the biggest song I've probably ever sung.
00:05:18Sia does nothing in halves.
00:05:21And neither am I.
00:05:22Yeah?
00:05:23There are a lot of high notes in this song
00:05:25and it's testing me.
00:05:26It's pushing me to my limits.
00:05:28Your face told me that that note was coming.
00:05:31So don't let us know.
00:05:32Yeah.
00:05:33Just don't ever think that.
00:05:34This is unlike anything I've ever done before.
00:05:37The band, the massive stage,
00:05:38and I need to be on point.
00:05:40It is a little bit of pressure.
00:05:42Yeah.
00:05:43But I can't wait to see your transformation.
00:05:45And you'll be the first.
00:05:46Yeah, I bet.
00:05:47I don't get to dress up as a mum.
00:05:50Because it.
00:05:52Nope.
00:05:53This is beautiful.
00:05:54Hello.
00:05:55Yasu.
00:05:55Yasu.
00:05:56Look at this Greek.
00:05:57I love them.
00:05:58Last time I wore a gown was definitely my wedding dress.
00:06:02They're a big, fat Greek wedding for sure.
00:06:04We're taking you out of your beautiful blazers.
00:06:06Out of school teacher mode.
00:06:07And we're going to put you in a gorgeous gown,
00:06:09a bit of sparkle,
00:06:10and watch you perform.
00:06:11When I go to work,
00:06:13for me, that's dressing up.
00:06:14Bit of mascara.
00:06:16Oh.
00:06:17Laser on.
00:06:18I'm ready.
00:06:19As a mum,
00:06:21it's this evolving thing
00:06:23to try to feel beautiful
00:06:25after you've had children.
00:06:26I absolutely lost my sense of identity
00:06:29because I was a mum.
00:06:30I put out all my effort into my children
00:06:32and I disappeared
00:06:33because I did that.
00:06:35Light me up.
00:06:37How do you think you'll feel in a gown?
00:06:39Honestly, like Cinderella.
00:06:41It will be the glass slipper moment.
00:06:43What do you think the hubby
00:06:44and the kids are going to feel?
00:06:46They're going to be like,
00:06:47whoa, like this is,
00:06:48who is that,
00:06:49who is that woman?
00:06:50Yeah.
00:06:50They will be proud, yeah.
00:06:53They've probably never seen mummy like this,
00:06:55so to show off
00:06:57what I look like
00:06:57and who I am
00:06:58will be amazing.
00:06:59It's going to be
00:07:00a transformation
00:07:01that's deeper
00:07:02than a physical transformation,
00:07:04absolutely.
00:07:05I hope they see this
00:07:06and they're like,
00:07:06shivers.
00:07:07Yeah, look at my mum.
00:07:08Like, cool.
00:07:10She's cool.
00:07:11She did great things.
00:07:16She's a mum
00:07:17and schoolteacher
00:07:18stepping up her style.
00:07:20In the classroom,
00:07:21she inspires her students.
00:07:23Tonight,
00:07:23she's inspiring us all.
00:07:25Daring to tackle
00:07:26a sea of power ballad
00:07:27from South Australia,
00:07:29this is Samilla.
00:07:32APPLAUSE
00:07:41I was born in a thundersport
00:07:46I grew up overnight
00:07:51I played alone,
00:07:53I played on my own
00:07:55I survived
00:08:00I wanted everything
00:08:03I never had
00:08:05Like the love
00:08:07that comes alive
00:08:10I worry, I'm free
00:08:12and I hate it

00:08:52that you said
00:08:53that I wouldn't
00:08:53I told you
00:08:54that I would not be forgotten
00:08:56All is fine with you
00:09:02I'm still breathing
00:09:05I'm still breathing

00:09:41Thank you
00:09:42Wow
00:09:47Oh, Smella, wow, firstly you look incredible.
00:09:53Thank you, Amy.
00:09:55I feel good, I feel good.
00:09:57I mean, sometimes, you know, in audition rooms we take a risk on people.
00:10:02You were never a risk.
00:10:03You were just like straight away we knew we'd found someone really special.
00:10:09And oh, what a, you just, that was just, you just owned that stage then.
00:10:15I see a song you're never going to, I mean, you can go wrong
00:10:17and you're also from Adelaide, right?
00:10:20We're the same.
00:10:21Exactly.
00:10:21Like, we're due for another big, big singer from that state.
00:10:25I remember you being really nervous about it taking too long
00:10:30and I remember feeling that way being like, when is my time?
00:10:33Like, this is just like, it feels like I'm waiting forever
00:10:36and I'm just, I'm such a big believer now in things happen at the right time
00:10:41and I feel like this is the right time for you.
00:10:44It feels like the right time.
00:10:45Totally.
00:10:47No worries.
00:10:47You crushed that.
00:10:48That was amazing.
00:10:50Samila, since day one, since day one, honey,
00:10:54you have been as solid as a rock.
00:10:57You know, your performances are just on another level.
00:11:00Also, I'm sure your children are looking at you saying,
00:11:03go ahead, mommy.
00:11:04You look beautiful.
00:11:06And you sounded great.
00:11:07Congratulations.
00:11:08Thank you so much.
00:11:08You're welcome.
00:11:12Truly a remarkable transformation.
00:11:14You've always been a beautiful woman,
00:11:16but this is like Queen Mary's showing up at some sort of gala event.
00:11:20And then when you flipped the script and started strutting your stuff
00:11:24and the strength and the power and the vocal and you as a woman.
00:11:30It was everything it was supposed to be.
00:11:32Can't fault it.
00:11:33I thought it was fantastic.
00:11:34Thank you guys.
00:11:39Wow.
00:11:40Wow.
00:11:41Samila, my goodness.
00:11:43Our first performer of the night.
00:11:46I mean, you look sensational, but you sounded amazing.
00:11:50How did you feel?
00:11:52Oh, unreal.
00:11:53This is unreal.
00:11:54Yeah?
00:11:54Yeah.
00:11:56It's, yeah, surreal.
00:11:58For sure.
00:11:59That was incredible.
00:12:01It really was.
00:12:02Now, you are a busy mum and a school teacher.
00:12:05This is like a world away from your day-to-day life, right?
00:12:09Day and night.
00:12:10Day and night.
00:12:11Well, you absolutely smashed it.
00:12:13You look so comfortable up here.
00:12:14You just look so at home.
00:12:16Your audition has absolutely blown up online.
00:12:19Millions of views and counting.
00:12:22Surely, that's going to make you the cool teacher at school.
00:12:25The coolest.
00:12:26That's it.
00:12:27What time do your kids have to go to bed?
00:12:30Normally, like 6.37.
00:12:31Okay, so they're already, are they watching now?
00:12:34They're here.
00:12:34Oh, they're here.
00:12:35Where are they?
00:12:36Hi.
00:12:37Oh, hi, darling.
00:12:40Now, I've got to just say quickly to my son.
00:12:43He's in Perth visiting his 100-year-old great-grandfather.
00:12:46Oh, amazing.
00:12:46He's watching.
00:12:47You've seen Dada off to bed now.
00:12:49How good is she?
00:12:50She's great.
00:12:51Bedtime now.
00:12:51I like it.
00:12:52Keep these kids up.
00:12:53They're rock and roll kids now.
00:12:53Time for nanny.
00:12:55I love it.
00:12:56Alright, well, Samella has certainly set the bar high.
00:12:59But, will she make it into the top 12?
00:13:02We will find out from the judges at the end of tonight's show.
00:13:07Give it up for Samella!
00:13:09Thank you guys.
00:13:13What a way to kick off the show.
00:13:16It is electric in here.
00:13:18How's everyone feeling?
00:13:19Woo!
00:13:21Alright.
00:13:22Up next, he is the teenage busker from Manly in New South Wales.
00:13:26It is Tayo!
00:13:31You're like an actual, proper musician at 15.
00:13:36Since last week, you might have noticed a couple of different things that might have changed
00:13:41for me.
00:13:43I'm now brace-free.
00:13:44I've turned 16.
00:13:46It means that I can drive.
00:13:47I think my life actually has changed quite a lot since I auditioned for Idol.
00:13:51People have been recognising me, especially at school.
00:13:56Yo!
00:13:57My friends Richard and Lachlan are from my school.
00:14:00I think they definitely have been very, very supportive for me.
00:14:03Where do you guys think I am right now?
00:14:04Woo-hoo!
00:14:05Is that backstage?
00:14:06Woo-hoo!
00:14:07Yes, I am backstage.
00:14:09If I were at school right now, I'd probably be in math class.
00:14:11How was it?
00:14:12Math?
00:14:12Math class without me?
00:14:13Oh my God.
00:14:14It was so long.
00:14:15I'm so sorry guys.
00:14:16That really sucks.
00:14:18I'm so sad.
00:14:20Ah-ha-ha!
00:14:22Woo-hoo!
00:14:24And for Transformation Week, I'm going to be singing Forget You by CeeLo Green.
00:14:37How was that?
00:14:39That was good, but I still felt like I kind of got, you know, blown away a little bit and
00:14:43then I kind of ran out of breath at some point.
00:14:46I need to be careful not to be swallowed by the band.
00:14:48Okay.
00:14:48So that's definitely something that I have to work on.
00:14:50You did get swallowed by the band.
00:14:52I just reckon you can go a little bit.
00:14:54Go a bit more?
00:14:55Yeah.
00:14:55Yeah, okay.
00:14:56Okay, okay, okay, okay.
00:14:57Well, the band is definitely pretty loud, which, you know, has kind of pushed me to, you
00:15:01know, try to sing, you know, with more power.
00:15:04I think I might just need to focus a bit more on like to have a bit more power in
00:15:08my voice
00:15:08and still have that stability.
00:15:09Yeah.
00:15:09I think that's the hardest part.
00:15:10I'm afraid that maybe on the day I might get swallowed up, especially with the crowd too.
00:15:16So I'm a little bit worried about that.
00:15:18Because as soon as you do these, these are the kind of microphones that as soon as you
00:15:21take it away, it's like you could be anywhere.
00:15:24You could be in the shower.
00:15:25It's like some far away place.
00:15:28My goal is to show that even if I am just the youngest guy here, I can transform into
00:15:35something bigger and that I shouldn't be underestimated.
00:15:42As a busker, he normally performs for pocket money, but tonight he's playing for a place
00:15:47in the top 12.
00:15:48With his proud family looking on and looking very sharp this evening, this is Tayo.
00:16:28If I was in love with you, yeah
00:16:31Oh, well
00:16:32Just thought you'd love me
00:16:34Oh, got some meals for you, yeah
00:16:38Just go over and tell your little boyfriend
00:16:40I say you're drowning round down with a girl I love
00:16:45And I might forget you, yeah
00:16:48I guess the change in my pocket wasn't enough
00:16:52So I might forget you, yeah
00:16:56Oh, now, baby, baby, baby, why you wanna, wanna hurt me so bad?
00:17:01So bad, so bad, yeah.
00:17:03So bad, yeah.
00:17:04I tried to tell my mama, but she told me this was one for your dad.
00:17:08Your dad.
00:17:09Yeah, she did.
00:17:10Your dad.
00:17:11I'm like, why?
00:17:14Why?
00:17:15Why?
00:17:16Why?
00:17:18Yeah.
00:17:19Why?
00:17:20I love you.
00:17:21Why?
00:17:21I really love you.
00:17:25I say you're drunk and frantic, but the good I love, forget you.
00:17:33I just got change in my pocket, wasn't enough, so I might forget you and forget how to say.
00:17:41If I was a great child, I'd still be with ya, yeah.
00:17:45Knowing that's on the shh.
00:17:48And all this pain in my chest, I still wish you the best.
00:17:52And I forget you, ha ha.
00:18:04Well done.
00:18:06Nice work.
00:18:10Thank you so much.
00:18:16Thank you so much.
00:18:19Thank you so much.
00:18:37You made that youthful, energetic, young, it's great to see you.
00:18:40You've really, and the braces, it makes a big difference.
00:18:43Yes, finally gone.
00:18:44Finally.
00:18:44Freedom.
00:18:45How long did you have those little babies for?
00:18:47Probably about 19 months, so not too long.
00:18:49Yeah, not too long.
00:18:49Yeah.
00:18:50Fun man.
00:18:50Fun man.
00:18:54You, good work man.
00:18:55I thought that was, I was worried.
00:18:57You might not be able to pull that off, but you brought a youthful joy to it and I think
00:19:01you did a great job.
00:19:01Thank you so much.
00:19:08When you sat at the piano, the first thing I said to Carl was,
00:19:11this boy, because you are a professional busker,
00:19:14you've got so much idea of the space around you
00:19:18and what you've got to do to entertain.
00:19:20That in itself, my darling, is a gift.
00:19:23Thank you so much.
00:19:24You're welcome.
00:19:26The gift of making someone walk towards your open guitar case
00:19:30and put money into it.
00:19:31But that's a big deal.
00:19:32That's a gift.
00:19:32Yeah, and you do it well.
00:19:34You do it very, very well.
00:19:35Thank you so much.
00:19:35And welcome to Adulthood No Braces.
00:19:38Yes.
00:19:38At this point in time, yeah?
00:19:40Well done.
00:19:42I went through that too, man.
00:19:43I went through, like, the full-on braces.
00:19:46You had the things on your shoulders with the whole thing.
00:19:47I had everything, a whole helmet, yeah.
00:19:49Yeah, yeah.
00:19:50Real Zoolander vibes you had going.
00:19:52Yeah.
00:19:53Thanks, Kyle.
00:19:54No one Google that.
00:19:57Tayo, you are so musically educated.
00:20:01And it's really incredible to watch.
00:20:04But I'm confused by you only because a lot of the time in entertainment and in music,
00:20:10you get, like, this one shot.
00:20:12Sometimes people might get two.
00:20:15And in my head, I'm like, well, is his shot now?
00:20:18You could really take over now and really go for it.
00:20:21But then I'm like, but imagine him in a few more years.
00:20:23Like, you're going to be a weapon.
00:20:25And it doesn't mean you're not now.
00:20:27It's just, in my mind, I'm like, when is this, when is this guy's shot?
00:20:32You know, because you are like a Bruno Mars.
00:20:35You're like, you could go nuclear.
00:20:37Thank you so much.
00:20:38You have got so much talent.
00:20:40It's so...
00:20:44Or you could go home at the end of the show.
00:20:46It's hard to tell.
00:20:47I think what I'm trying to say is, like, no matter what, you, like, you deserve to be here.
00:20:52But no matter what, you are, for your age, man, it's scary.
00:20:57Like, you are, you're wild.
00:20:58Like, he's been reincarnated or something.
00:21:01Like, he's done this before.
00:21:02You're really weird today.
00:21:04Why are you being weird?
00:21:06Tayo, that was amazing.
00:21:07Well done.
00:21:08Thank you so, so much.
00:21:10Tayo!
00:21:11Tayo!
00:21:12Tayo!
00:21:13Tayo!
00:21:13Did that feel good?
00:21:15That was amazing.
00:21:16Yeah.
00:21:17Yeah.
00:21:18I mean, you're normally busking out on the street.
00:21:20But this is a whole new level.
00:21:23This is incredible.
00:21:25Normally, busking is, like, maximum maybe 50 people.
00:21:28This is 1,500.
00:21:31And listen to them!
00:21:34Hey, hey, pass, pass the hat around before the ad break.
00:21:38Pass the hat out.
00:21:38Go to Kyle first, I promise.
00:21:40You guys could do a little duo with what you're wearing.
00:21:43It's like you guys are...
00:21:44A little duo-op situation.
00:21:45It's funny.
00:21:46I mean, your biggest fans are here in the audience.
00:21:49Your parents and your sister, Sia.
00:21:52Fam, what did we think?
00:21:57Thumbs up?
00:21:58What did you think?
00:22:00That was awesome.
00:22:02Tayo, I'm so proud that you made it all the way to top 21.
00:22:05Thank you so much.
00:22:05Merci beaucoup.
00:22:06Oh, I love it.
00:22:07Merci beaucoup.
00:22:08He's speaking in another language.
00:22:09Oh, my gosh.
00:22:11Oh, my gosh.
00:22:12What can't he do?
00:22:13All right.
00:22:13Well, is Tayo going to make it into the top 12?
00:22:17Yes, he is.
00:22:18Stay tuned to hear what the judges decide at the end of the show.
00:22:22Give it up one more time, everybody, for Tayo.
00:22:28Congratulations.
00:22:29All right, later in the show, it's our singing skier from Jindabyne, Kesha, and our pop-punk
00:22:37Prince Achille.
00:22:39But next, she's our teenage country singer from Lennox Head in New South Wales.
00:22:45Lily Grace is putting a country spin on one of the biggest rock hits of all time.
00:22:51That's after the break.
00:22:53Don't go anywhere.
00:23:04This is Transformation Week, where our singers are powering up every aspect of their performance
00:23:10for a sought-after spot in the top 12.
00:23:13Up next is our horse-riding country singer from Lennox Head in New South Wales.
00:23:18It's Lily Grace.
00:23:21What you getting here to want you to see?
00:23:24There ain't nothing more to do.
00:23:26Rock like that, it's Lily Grace Graham.
00:23:30It's top 21.
00:23:31It's Transformation Week.
00:23:34This is my favourite week to watch.
00:23:38Mm, bit of hair and makeup today.
00:23:39This is so exciting.
00:23:41I feel like every time, it's like, they look amazing.
00:23:45So now being here, it's like, oh, what are they going to do to me?
00:23:49I've been in Tamwa for the Country Music Festival, the Country Music Capital.
00:23:56You know, I've been performing and just, like, learning as much as I can, just getting involved
00:24:01as much as I can.
00:24:02I'm a country music girl.
00:24:05Yeah, I mean, I love my hat.
00:24:07It really is my look.
00:24:08Like, when I get out on a stage and I perform, this is it.
00:24:17This is pretty nuts.
00:24:18Hello!
00:24:20Hi!
00:24:20Hi!
00:24:21Hi, Grace!
00:24:21How are you?
00:24:22It's really real now, you know, like, this is like a, you know, a stage that any kind
00:24:27of huge, famous person in this country or other countries could perform on, you know.
00:24:30It's a small crowd.
00:24:31There's 1,500 people here and everyone at home.
00:24:33So you're doing one of the most iconic rock songs ever.
00:24:38I'm going to be singing I Can't Get No Satisfaction by the Rolling Stones.
00:24:42Literally Grace Seasoning, you know how it is.
00:24:54Everyone wants to connect with you from the very back there to the people at the front
00:25:00here.
00:25:01The comments have been to connect and all those kinds of things.
00:25:05Eye contact is just, like, it's everything.
00:25:07I think it's important that you own that space.
00:25:11Yes.
00:25:12I'm just going to throw a thought in there.
00:25:15Mm-hmm.
00:25:16Think about maybe losing the hat.
00:25:21I don't know how...
00:25:21Do you reckon?
00:25:23I mean, does that freak you out a little bit?
00:25:25A little bit.
00:25:26Okay.
00:25:28When I'm singing, my hat can kind of do these ones with my eyes and it's like it's...
00:25:31I can't, like, deeply kind of connect with people from what I'm saying and, like, get
00:25:36people to believe it, you know, if I'm... that's blocked.
00:25:38I don't want you to hide behind and I get that it's your look.
00:25:42I just...
00:25:43Just...
00:25:44I'll think about it.
00:25:45Think about it.
00:25:45That's all I'm saying.
00:25:46Yeah.
00:25:47I'm not saying that I'm not going to do it, but I want to be in top 12 so bad
00:25:52and I want
00:25:52to continue this journey, but it's a little bit scary.
00:25:55Like, who knows, mate?
00:25:56Who knows?
00:25:56Top 21, it's Transformation Week.
00:26:02Giddy up.
00:26:03This country gal has glammed up, ditched the hat and looks absolutely gorgeous.
00:26:09Putting on a bootin' scootin' spin on a Rolling Stones classic, this is Lily Grace.
00:26:28I can't get no satisfaction, I can't get no satisfaction, cause I tried and I tried.
00:26:45Then I tried, then I tried.
00:26:49I can't get no, I can't get no, when I'm drivin' in my car and a man comes on the
00:27:01radio
00:27:02Tellin' me more and more, about some useless information, supposed to find my imagination.
00:27:13I can't get no, no, no, no, no, hey, hey, hey, that's what I say.
00:27:27I can't get no satisfaction, I can't get no satisfaction, cause I tried and I tried and I tried and
00:27:46I tried.
00:27:46I can't get no, I can't get no satisfaction, I can't get no satisfaction, cause I tried and I tried
00:28:04and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I
00:28:08tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and
00:28:11I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried
00:28:11and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I
00:28:11tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and
00:28:11I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried
00:28:11and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I
00:28:11tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and
00:28:11I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried
00:28:11and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried
00:28:26Oh, my, oh, my.
00:28:33Well, Miss Lily Grace, talk about a transformation.
00:28:38Oh, wow, you're bigger than that hat.
00:28:42I mean, the hat's cute and everything, but Lord have mercy.
00:28:45You look good.
00:28:46Thank you so much, Martha.
00:28:48You look really good, you know, and you look really comfortable doing it.
00:28:51I'm so glad that you came from behind the microphone and showed us who you were.
00:28:55Do you know what I mean?
00:28:55It's all about your performance, you know what I mean?
00:28:58You can't, you don't have to do that every song, but when it comes to a song like that,
00:29:03the Rolling Stones, you better represent.
00:29:04Well done, honey.
00:29:05Thank you so much.
00:29:08That was so awesome, Lily Grace.
00:29:11Like, I mean, and I know a thing or two about having a look that's really hard to detach from.
00:29:18The thing is, you've got to lose something in order for people to miss it, you know what
00:29:21I mean?
00:29:22So I think, um, I agree with...
00:29:24I lost my good looks.
00:29:26No, you've still got them, Kyle.
00:29:27Don't worry.
00:29:28Don't worry.
00:29:28I agree with Marsha.
00:29:29You just look like an absolute professional out there.
00:29:32What I really love seeing was the little package beforehand.
00:29:36They played...
00:29:36You were still playing gigs.
00:29:38You're doing Australian Idol and you're still working.
00:29:40And that's like, that's the key thing to dominate this show is like, we can only do so much.
00:29:47We can present you to the country.
00:29:48They can see how great you are.
00:29:49But if you're not doing the extra legwork, like, you're shooting yourself in your foot.
00:29:54And I think you're...
00:29:55You know this.
00:29:57And I can see how seriously you take it.
00:29:59I would be confident just sending you out into the big bad world on tour and making records already.
00:30:06Thank you so much.
00:30:07Thank you so much for being ready for this lifestyle.
00:30:14I also was nervous because I liked the hat.
00:30:17And I know it's you.
00:30:18And then you're like, I'm a country girl.
00:30:20It's like a badge.
00:30:21Yeah.
00:30:22But it was the right choice to lose the hat.
00:30:25You've still got your country vibe.
00:30:27You're still doing an amazing job.
00:30:29Great big vocal.
00:30:31And even in this room with 1,500 people in it, it's a big auditorium.
00:30:35Make some noise, everyone.
00:30:36Thank you, guys.
00:30:39It's sometimes hard in the room, sometimes hard sitting here when the crowd go crazy and start roaring.
00:30:46It'll mix nice on TV.
00:30:48But I thought it was great.
00:30:50Powerful.
00:30:51You're still you without the hat.
00:30:53And we still loved every minute of it.
00:30:55Look at you, bro.
00:30:55I still want to say that.
00:30:56I still love the hat.
00:30:57Just...
00:30:57Yeah, don't lose the hat forever.
00:30:59Don't lose the hat forever.
00:30:59It's not gone forever, but it's Transformation Week.
00:31:02So...
00:31:02Oh, that's a good attitude.
00:31:04Good attitude.
00:31:05Very good.
00:31:06Thank you so much.
00:31:08Yee-haw.
00:31:09Lily Grace.
00:31:11I watched you in rehearsals, but that just took it up to a whole other level.
00:31:16You are made for the stage, girlfriend.
00:31:18How do you think that went?
00:31:19I mean, good.
00:31:21This is insane.
00:31:22Like, this is crazy.
00:31:23I can't really get over it.
00:31:24Like, I could.
00:31:27I'm just...
00:31:27I'm a bit starstruck by you and everyone and everyone here.
00:31:30But it's good.
00:31:31And ditto.
00:31:32Ditto.
00:31:32That was incredible.
00:31:33Now, your mum is your best friend, which I just think is adorable.
00:31:36And she goes to all of your gigs.
00:31:38So, of course, she is here tonight.
00:31:42Susie, what did you think of Lily Grace's transformation and that performance?
00:31:47Oh, I'm just going to get my heart out of my mouth.
00:31:50I'm just like, blow it away.
00:31:52I'm shaking and the heart's going crazy.
00:31:54But that was incredible, darling.
00:31:55You know, congratulations.
00:31:57It runs in the family.
00:32:01Oh, beautiful.
00:32:03All right, Lily Grace, let's hope you impress the judges enough to earn yourself a place in the top 12.
00:32:09One more time, everybody, for Lily Grace.
00:32:12Thank you so much.
00:32:16All right.
00:32:17Now, each of the judges have one fast pass they can use to instantly send their favourite singer into the
00:32:25next round.
00:32:26No judge has used theirs yet.
00:32:29But maybe, just maybe, our next contestant will be the first to score one.
00:32:35Charlie is the soulful singer from Perth who brought Kyle to tears in his audition.
00:32:41And tonight, he's got something equally special planned.
00:32:46Just you wait.
00:32:47Idle is back in just a moment.
00:33:01It's Transformation Week on Australian Idol.
00:33:05Tonight, the judges will watch all the performances and then decide who will secure a spot in next week's top
00:33:1212 live shows.
00:33:14All right, stepping up to the mic is our next performer.
00:33:18He's the smooth singing guy with the trademark orange beanie from Perth, Western Australia.
00:33:24This is Charlie.
00:33:28I heard it talk the day that I died.
00:33:32That was beautiful.
00:33:34So much real emotion.
00:33:38It's Transformation Week, and that means for me, levelling up.
00:33:41What do we got?
00:33:43Transforming to something different.
00:33:45Spins.
00:33:46That is interesting.
00:33:48Cool.
00:33:49Okay.
00:33:50Just as long as it sucked.
00:33:52That's great.
00:33:53Can we keep this for the whole show?
00:33:55Whoa.
00:33:57Orange beanie, man.
00:33:59Tried on some different looks, and it can't be the classic.
00:34:05Good to see you.
00:34:07How's it all feel?
00:34:08Pretty surreal.
00:34:09Yeah.
00:34:10Yeah.
00:34:10The top 21 of Australia.
00:34:12It's really exciting, but at the same time, I feel like it's a lot of pressure.
00:34:15What's your song?
00:34:16My song's a little help from my friends.
00:34:17What a great song.
00:34:18It's an amazing song.
00:34:19What's your connection?
00:34:20The song's very poignant to me because I've had some really tough times in the last couple
00:34:24of years with my parents, and my friends have been just shoe supporters through that time.
00:34:29They're really there for me, and I'm using this performance,
00:34:32and a way to let them know that I'm so grateful for them.
00:34:38My friend.
00:34:46It can feel a bit aggressive and shouty if you stay on that one note.
00:34:50I see, I see.
00:34:50Yeah.
00:34:51It might feel like you're being joyous because you feel joy inside, but your face says aggressive.
00:34:59Yeah.
00:35:00I've been told that I'm resting serious face, and people are like, you're okay?
00:35:03I'm like, no, no, I'm fine, but I just have to learn to turn that off.
00:35:07I want everyone to feel the hope.
00:35:09So just don't go into yourself too much.
00:35:12Okay, yeah, yeah.
00:35:12Closing your eyes.
00:35:13As soon as you close your eyes, you close people off.
00:35:15This is more than just a song for me.
00:35:18I need to translate the love and gratitude I have for my friends in this performance and
00:35:24work on bringing that joy out.
00:35:26It's life-changing doing this stuff, man.
00:35:29So it's like I've got to bust my ass to make sure I get in there.
00:35:33I want to make my friends super proud of this performance.
00:35:36They were there for me when nobody else was.
00:35:38You know, they have my back.
00:35:40I don't want them to see how much I value them having my back.
00:35:48Looking a million bucks and still rocking his signature beanie, taking on a song by the
00:35:54most successful band in the world, The Beatles, from Perth, Western Australia.
00:35:59This is Jolly.
00:36:14What would you do if I sang how to tune?
00:36:20Would you stand up and walk out on me?
00:36:26Let me, lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song and I'll try not to sing at a
00:36:35key.
00:36:36Oh, I can't buy with a little help for my friends.
00:36:41I'm gonna get high with my friends.
00:36:44I'm gonna get high with my friends.
00:36:47I'm gonna try with my friends.
00:36:50Yeah, I'm gonna get high with my friends.
00:36:54Oh, I can't buy with my friends.
00:37:01Do you need anybody?
00:37:07I just need someone to love.
00:37:13Hey, could it be anybody?
00:37:17Always gotta be somebody.
00:37:20Oh, who knows this way I'm going, yeah.
00:37:22Somebody who knows this way I'll show them.
00:37:25Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:37:31Oh, I get high with a little help for my friends.
00:37:36You know I'm gonna get high with my friends.
00:37:42You know I'm gonna try.
00:37:45I'm a little help for my friends.
00:37:49Oh, I get high with a little help for my friends.
00:37:53You know I get high with my friends.

00:38:37great performance, great song choice.
00:38:41Beautiful delivery and a great message.
00:38:44We all need to get by with a little help from our friends.
00:38:47Yes, we do.
00:38:47We do, for sure.
00:38:48This week's been tough for me.
00:38:49I've had a falling out with a very close friend.
00:38:53And how's your dad, by the way?
00:38:54My dad, he's really good.
00:38:56He's rooting for me at home.
00:38:57He's a fighter.
00:38:58I love it.
00:38:59I love it.
00:39:00He'd be so proud.
00:39:01It was brilliant, Charlie.
00:39:02I totally enjoyed it.
00:39:03Oh, thank you so much.
00:39:04Thank you very much.
00:39:06I agree, Kyle.
00:39:07That was something else, man.
00:39:11I have had a few, well, lots of moments on this show
00:39:16since I've been on it,
00:39:17but that is something I will never forget
00:39:19just because you've got this miracle tone
00:39:25that people just want to hear you sing.
00:39:27Wow.
00:39:28And that's what you did,
00:39:29and you just did it so beautifully.
00:39:33There's no tricks with you.
00:39:35It's just so who you are.
00:39:37Yeah.
00:39:38Like, it's just so who you are,
00:39:40and I won't forget that.
00:39:41That was really, really incredible, man.
00:39:44Well, thank you so much.
00:39:45Thank you so much.
00:39:46You know, it said in life,
00:39:48you can't choose your family,
00:39:50but you can choose your friends.
00:39:51Yes, ma'am.
00:39:52You know, and friends get you through stuff thick or thin.
00:39:56You know, they'll love you regardless.
00:39:57I think there's something incredible about you,
00:40:00and Kyle actually said it.
00:40:02It's just effortless, you know,
00:40:03and one of the most important things you guys
00:40:06about a performer is you're honest.
00:40:10Yeah.
00:40:10No frills.
00:40:11I don't want frills.
00:40:13I just want heart.
00:40:15Charlie, I'm going to give you my fast pass.
00:40:30Yeah.
00:40:32Yeah.
00:40:33Yeah.
00:40:34What?
00:40:34Yes.
00:40:37Congratulations, Charlie.
00:40:40Wow.
00:40:41Thank you so much.
00:40:43Oh, wow.
00:40:44I want to say some words I shouldn't say on TV.
00:40:46Please don't.
00:40:47Please don't.
00:40:47Let me take it from here.
00:40:48Charlie, you just received Marsha's fast pass.
00:40:52You are automatically straight through to the top 12.
00:40:57Congratulations, my friend.
00:40:58How does that feel?
00:41:00Unbelievable.
00:41:01I'm in shock.
00:41:05This is crazy.
00:41:06This is crazy for me.
00:41:08I'm in my 30s.
00:41:10This is the last roll of the dice.
00:41:11It means the world to me.
00:41:13Thank you so much, you know.
00:41:16You deserve it, Charlie.
00:41:17That was...
00:41:20When Marsha closes her eyes and sits back in her chair,
00:41:24you know she's really feeling something.
00:41:26What would you like to say to Marsha?
00:41:28Oh, I'm just so in honour of your decision, you know.
00:41:32It's so wonderful to hear these comments from you guys.
00:41:35It just...
00:41:36It means the world to me.
00:41:37Thank you so much.
00:41:38You deserve it, man.
00:41:40Oh, no.
00:41:42All right.
00:41:43Well, Charlie, we cannot wait to see you perform again live next week
00:41:49in the top 12.
00:41:53Head on over to the lounge and celebrate with the others.
00:41:57Australia officially in the top 12.
00:41:59It's Charlie.
00:42:03Oh, how good is that?
00:42:05OK, so far we've seen Samela, Tayo, Lily Grace and Charlie perform for the judges.
00:42:11But next, it's Jamie's turn.
00:42:13She is straight out of the 70s in style and sound.
00:42:17And our Gold Coast girl, Jamie, is transforming and taking on an iconic anthem.
00:42:22We cannot wait to see this one.
00:42:25Australian Idol is back in a moment.
00:42:27APPLAUSE
00:42:38It's Transformation Week on Idol
00:42:40and we are halfway through tonight's show
00:42:43with just a few singers left to perform.
00:42:46And then we find out who will make the top 12
00:42:49and sing at next week's live shows.
00:42:51Our next singer vying for one of those spots
00:42:54is someone who lives and breathes all things 70s.
00:42:59From the Gold Coast, this is Jamie!
00:43:04I feel the earth move out of my feet.
00:43:08You've got those from your vibe.
00:43:09That's who you are.
00:43:14Woo!
00:43:15It feels amazing to be in the Australian Idol Top 21.
00:43:19I'm so excited to be here.
00:43:21This has always been my number one passion.
00:43:24To have this opportunity is awesome.
00:43:26I'm really wanting to transform my vocals this week.
00:43:30What song are you singing?
00:43:31I'm singing I'm Every Woman by Shaka Khan.
00:43:34What a great song.
00:43:35Yes.
00:43:36She is my style icon, vocal icon, all of it.
00:43:40I'm pretty sure if my information and my sources are correct.
00:43:44Marsha opened for Shaka Khan in about 2008.
00:43:47Oh my God.
00:43:48Just a little...
00:43:49No pressure.
00:43:50Yeah, the pressure's on with that knowledge.
00:43:53Marsha gave me some criticism on the last performance.
00:43:57A lot of your vocal gymnastics didn't land.
00:44:02You know, you don't have to do that.
00:44:04Aww.
00:44:06She's scared of you.
00:44:07I do.
00:44:08Marsha is on my mind this whole week.
00:44:11Like, I just want to impress her so bad.
00:44:13I'm going to take on Marsha's advice and not need to do all the vocal gymnastics.
00:44:18I can just sing the song.
00:44:21Oh, my baby woman.
00:44:24So, I think it's finding that balance between, like, what Marsha said, which would not go too much.
00:44:29But I think you should, I think you can throw something in there.
00:44:32She was this crazy dude.
00:44:33I'm not sure if I'm playing it too safe or if I need to add more.
00:44:37Like, everyone's telling me stuff and I'm like, yep, yep, yep.
00:44:41Got it, got it, got it.
00:44:42Okay.
00:44:44I can add a little bit of Jamie.
00:44:46Like, I don't want to go to the opposite end of the scale.
00:44:49If I fail to impress Marsha, it could be the end of the road for me.
00:44:52So, this show means a lot to me and I'm praying that I go well.
00:45:01She's bringing the 70s groove, grit and glamour to the idol stage.
00:45:06Tonight, she's dialling up the disco with an iconic hit from the legendary Shaka Khan.
00:45:11Looking oh so chic, this is Jamie.
00:45:29I am every woman, it's all in me.
00:45:36Anything you want on me, I tell you naturally.
00:45:41Oh, oh, oh.
00:45:43I can cast a spell of secrets you can't tell.
00:45:48It makes a special proof of fire inside of you.
00:45:53But anytime you feel danger or fear instantly, I will be a god.
00:46:01I'm every woman, it's all in me.
00:46:07Anything you want on me, I tell you naturally.
00:46:14Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:46:17Oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:46:19Oh, oh.
00:46:20I ain't trying, yeah.
00:46:22Because I own the world.
00:46:24Describe to me.
00:46:26Oh, and it shall be done.
00:46:28No matter.
00:46:30To compare.
00:46:32Oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:46:33Oh, oh, my God.
00:46:35Oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:46:39Oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:46:50Oh
00:47:11Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:47:21Whoa.
00:47:25Jamie, far out.
00:47:27She means business.
00:47:29That was, that was great.
00:47:32I, I, it's hard to like, watch this season
00:47:36because everyone is just so good.
00:47:39Like, everyone has really stepped up.
00:47:41Um, you should be really proud of that.
00:47:44That was confident.
00:47:44You look incredible.
00:47:46You know, you know, you know your genre.
00:47:49Um, well done.
00:47:51I don't really have anything else to say.
00:47:53That just, that was, that was really strong.
00:47:55Thank you so much.
00:48:02Jamie, I say this to you from my heart.
00:48:05If I criticize you, it's to try and make you a better singer.
00:48:10You know, I, I don't enjoy telling another singer what to do,
00:48:15but I have a vague idea of how it's done.
00:48:18Right?
00:48:19So whatever I did say to you, I hope I didn't hurt your feelings
00:48:22because I didn't mean to, you know.
00:48:24And look, you know, most of the time in performance,
00:48:27when someone does criticize you, take what you can from it
00:48:31and learn to step up.
00:48:33Don't take it personal.
00:48:34Okay, honey?
00:48:35Yeah, for sure.
00:48:36I've just learned so much from you.
00:48:38Oh, God bless you.
00:48:38And I appreciate every single thing that you have said to me
00:48:40because it's just been a life-changing experience
00:48:43and I'm a better singer because of you and the judges,
00:48:46so I appreciate you so much.
00:48:59You performed well.
00:49:00You used up all the stage.
00:49:02You shimmied and danced.
00:49:03Everything was good.
00:49:04But I just worry that I don't want you to slip through the cracks
00:49:08on a night like tonight.
00:49:10Was, I'm not saying boring is not the word,
00:49:13but is it forgettable?
00:49:15Because you're not forgettable.
00:49:16You've got everything that you need.
00:49:19I just don't know whether you're going to stand out from the pack tonight.
00:49:22I hope you do because you're a great artist.
00:49:25Sure.
00:49:25But we'll find out at the end of the night.
00:49:27Good luck.
00:49:31Jamie, that performance was awesome
00:49:32and you're a whole lot of woman.
00:49:34That was awesome.
00:49:35How did that feel for you?
00:49:36Oh, it felt so amazing to sing one of my idols' songs.
00:49:39This is my song.
00:49:40I love this song to bits,
00:49:42so this has just been such a privilege to come out here
00:49:44and perform it on television, you know?
00:49:47You look amazing and you look so comfortable up here on stage.
00:49:50Jamie, what would it mean to get through to the top 12?
00:49:53Oh, this would be life-changing, honestly.
00:49:55I've been singing since I was a kid.
00:49:57I would be proving this to her, you know, that she can do this.
00:50:02So, honestly, it would just be life-changing.
00:50:04It means so much, yeah.
00:50:05All right.
00:50:06Well, you put it all on the line on this stage tonight,
00:50:10but let's hope it was enough to get you into next week's live shows
00:50:14and we're going to find out at the end of the night.
00:50:16Everybody, give it up one more time for Jamie!
00:50:22Well, it is vibing in here tonight and if you want to be in here,
00:50:26you can get your free tickets at australianidol.com.au.
00:50:29Okay, up next, he is the pop-punk rocker bidding to become the next Australian Idol.
00:50:35For Transformation Week, Achille linked up with some megastar VIPs
00:50:39to power up his performance.
00:50:42It's a surprise you won't see coming.
00:50:44Idol is back in a moment.
00:50:56You're watching Idol and tonight our singers are hoping to secure a spot in the top 12.
00:51:03Then, next week, we hand over the reins to you to start voting for your winner.
00:51:09Could our next singer go all the way?
00:51:11Well, Achille from Sydney chose a song by pop-punk rocker's Good Charlotte,
00:51:17and get this, he had the amazing opportunity to meet them
00:51:21for tips and tricks on levelling up for Transformation Week.
00:51:26Check it out.
00:51:31Achille, pop-punk, my kind of guy.
00:51:37This week is Top 21 Transformation Week
00:51:40and I'm gonna be singing Lifestyles of the Rich and the Famous by Good Charlotte.
00:51:44Yeah, and I'm actually off to meet the guys.
00:51:47They're a massive pop-punk band
00:51:49and, like, these are people I grew up listening to
00:51:51and, like, the fact that I get this opportunity to, like, go see them,
00:51:54it's actually, it's mental to me, like, even being in the same space as them, you know?
00:51:59I'm here to get advice from them for my song,
00:52:01how I can perform it better and maintain my energy,
00:52:04but also control the performance and make sure it's all-rounded.
00:52:07I'm off to see Good Charlotte, baby!
00:52:11Lifestyles of the Rich and the Babies
00:52:14They're always complaining
00:52:16Always complaining
00:52:17They're a massive, massive band, you know?
00:52:20They're just where I want to be in life.
00:52:22Wow.
00:52:23What's up, man?
00:52:24Hey, guys. Can I give you guys a big hug?
00:52:26Yeah. Of course, yeah.
00:52:28Right now, I feel like I'm in a dream.
00:52:29Like, this doesn't feel real.
00:52:31Can you do a performance so that we can watch and we can sort of give you sort of our
00:52:35best, like, help?
00:52:37A hundred percent.
00:52:38Yeah, okay, okay.
00:52:39I genuinely care I'm performing your song in front of you guys.
00:52:42Yeah, yeah.
00:52:42Great. Let's do it.
00:52:43It is super, super important that I get advice from these guys.
00:52:46Always see it on TV, read it in the magazine.
00:52:50Because they know the best and they're going to help me out a lot in terms of performing on Australian
00:52:54Idol.
00:52:55I think that some of these judges are sensing from you. You're staying in the chaos mode.
00:52:59Yes.
00:53:00Through the whole song.
00:53:01Last time, I did not live up to the expectations because I was doing too much.
00:53:05I think what happens is you start to lose breath. The melody gets lost. The lyrics in the story gets
00:53:11lost.
00:53:12So what I would do is I would just, I would calm down. On that verse, I would take the
00:53:17opportunity to connect with some people.
00:53:19And then on the chorus, that's when you hype everybody up. Do you know what I mean?
00:53:24Yeah, 100%.
00:53:25It's finding your moments. You don't need to hype everybody all the time.
00:53:28Obviously, like, I feel a lot of pressure in the back of my head when I'm hearing all the advice
00:53:32and everything that I can improve on.
00:53:33Because at this stage of the competition, like, there's no room for mistakes. It's all up to me now.
00:53:38You practice, practice, practice, but then...
00:53:42up, bro.
00:53:43All right, brother.
00:53:44I really appreciate it.
00:53:45We'll see you at the show tonight.
00:53:47I'm, wait, I'm actually...
00:53:49You'll be our guest at the show tonight.
00:53:51I'm going to the show tonight as well.
00:53:53That's, that's nuts, like...
00:53:54Phil, do the show.
00:53:55We'll make sure you have the best vantage point.
00:53:58And maybe, maybe you learn something, maybe you learn some things you don't want to do.
00:54:01All right?
00:54:01Yeah.
00:54:02They have, like, 30 years of experience in this industry.
00:54:04And it's, like, an incredible opportunity to learn how to conform well and really deliver the song.
00:54:11You know, I really want to stay in this competition because there's nothing in the world that gives me the
00:54:15same feeling as being on stage.
00:54:17So, I have to balance jumping around stage and also singing at the same time.
00:54:20If I mess up for this performance, like, I'm going home and I know that.
00:54:24So, I have to, like, make sure it's 100%.
00:54:31A new edge, new attitude and zero holding back.
00:54:35Tonight, he's unlocked his inner rebel to claim his spot in the top 12.
00:54:39Well, this isn't a makeover, it's a takeover.
00:54:43From Sydney, this is Achille!
00:54:52I know, make some noise!
00:54:57Here we go
00:55:00Always see it on TV
00:55:02Living in the magazine
00:55:05Celebrities, they want sympathy
00:55:09All they do is piss and moan
00:55:11Inside the rolling stone
00:55:13Talking about
00:55:14A hard life can be
00:55:18I'd like to see them spend a week
00:55:20Living life out on the street
00:55:22I don't think they would survive
00:55:27But they'd spend a day or two
00:55:29Walking in someone else's shoes
00:55:31A feeling stumble and they'd fall
00:55:35They would fall
00:55:36artistic
00:55:39Light styles
00:55:41Of the rich and the famous
00:55:43They're always complaining
00:55:45Always complaining
00:55:48If money
00:55:50Is such a problem
00:55:52Well, make our actions
00:55:54Think we should stop them
00:55:59Make some noise out there
00:56:03Okay, let's jump, jump, jump
00:56:06Lifetimes of the rich and famous
00:56:10We're always complaining, always complaining
00:56:15If money is such a problem
00:56:19We can't say any problem
00:56:21Think we can solve them
00:56:24Lifetimes of the rich and famous
00:56:29Lifetimes of the rich and famous
00:56:34Lifetimes of the rich and famous
00:56:50Oh, man
00:56:56Achille, what you bring
00:56:59To Australian Idol this year is this incredible lust for life and youth
00:57:03And it's beautiful to see
00:57:05You know, I mean, it is
00:57:06That's what rock and roll is to me
00:57:08You know what I mean?
00:57:09It's important that, you know, you settled
00:57:12Eventually
00:57:12But you were breathless from the very beginning
00:57:16Work it out
00:57:17Pace yourself, boyfriend
00:57:19Okay?
00:57:19And I think it was wonderful that the guys from Good Charlotte spoke to you
00:57:24And gave you some pointers
00:57:26But just take your time
00:57:27We know you're here
00:57:29We want to see you be the best you can be
00:57:31Okay?
00:57:32That was great, man
00:57:33I appreciate it
00:57:34Thank you so much
00:57:35Thank you, Marshall
00:57:38Achille
00:57:39I just honestly thank you
00:57:42Because I never thought I would ever see pop punk on this kind of stage
00:57:47And I'm enjoying every time I see you
00:57:50You're just like
00:57:51You love it so much
00:57:53I can see how much you love this genre
00:57:57I just think
00:57:58I just think the passion is there
00:57:59And I don't know what to do with you
00:58:01Because it's such a unique thing to witness
00:58:04But I love it
00:58:05I don't know about you guys
00:58:06But I just think
00:58:07You spinning around out there
00:58:09Thank you
00:58:10The best thing about this show is
00:58:12We say this all the time
00:58:14But it isn't about the voice
00:58:16It's about
00:58:16Do we believe that people are going to watch Achille
00:58:19And buy into what you're selling
00:58:22And be addicted to that energy
00:58:24And I honestly kind of think they would
00:58:26Because I just can't stop
00:58:28When you start those spin arounds
00:58:29I'm just like
00:58:30This guy is a tornado
00:58:31And I just
00:58:34It's impressive
00:58:35I think you need to still
00:58:36Like what Marsha said
00:58:37And even what Benji and Joel said
00:58:40The timings of things
00:58:42You know
00:58:42When to burst into energy
00:58:44And when to be still
00:58:46I think that's still something you need to concentrate on
00:58:48But the real stuff's there
00:58:50The passion's there
00:58:51And that's
00:58:52You can't teach that
00:58:54Thank you
00:58:59So
00:59:00When Benji and Joel were first signed in the United States
00:59:05The first port of call was Australia
00:59:08And two young boys walked into my
00:59:10Hot 30s studio back then
00:59:12And they were loose
00:59:14I mean they had the big hair
00:59:16And they were wild
00:59:17And I was like
00:59:18Look at these characters
00:59:20They had a huge success
00:59:22With multiple bands
00:59:24They'd both done extremely well
00:59:25But
00:59:27Yeah
00:59:28The tough bit is
00:59:29That you
00:59:30You sucked up the energy
00:59:31The fans
00:59:32You had everyone behind you
00:59:33But
00:59:34The vocal was not
00:59:36The strongest
00:59:36But it doesn't have to be
00:59:37In that world
00:59:39But where you probably went is
00:59:41I saw you trying too hard
00:59:42To do a good vocal
00:59:44And I think you maybe
00:59:45Came a little unstuck on yourself
00:59:47You should have just gone full hectic
00:59:49And when you do all this
00:59:50I'm expecting something big to happen
00:59:52But nothing happened
00:59:53It was like a Jesus moment
00:59:54But there was no rising
00:59:56There was
00:59:56I thought about jumping into the crowd
00:59:58But I don't want to kill anyone
00:59:59So
01:00:00Listen
01:00:00If you think it'll keep you in the contest
01:00:03Feel free to kill someone
01:00:05Do whatever you need to do
01:00:06To stay in
01:00:07Great energy
01:00:08Rubbish vocal
01:00:09But that doesn't mean
01:00:10You're not going to
01:00:11You're not going to keep it in the contest
01:00:12Good luck
01:00:13Thank you
01:00:13You're welcome
01:00:14Thank you
01:00:16You're such a vibe Achille
01:00:19I don't know if I want to see him
01:00:21Go to the next level
01:00:22Go to the next level
01:00:23That's tornado
01:00:24Hurricane level
01:00:25You are such a vibe Achille
01:00:27My goodness
01:00:28What was it like getting mentored
01:00:29By Joel and Benji
01:00:31From Good Charlotte
01:00:31I try to take on the advice
01:00:33You know
01:00:33They're like
01:00:34Some people that have been
01:00:35In the business for so long
01:00:36Like for example
01:00:37Looking at the crowd
01:00:38Connecting with them
01:00:38You know
01:00:39In specific moments
01:00:40I try to do that
01:00:41And yeah
01:00:41I just appreciate the boys
01:00:43For giving me advice
01:00:43You know
01:00:44Did you have fun?
01:00:45I had so much fun
01:00:45Thank you
01:00:46Yeah
01:00:46Alright
01:00:47Well the boys are so cool
01:00:48Aren't they?

01:03:18You made the local paper
01:03:19We're very excited
01:03:21To watch you
01:03:21In the Australian Idol
01:03:22You
01:03:24Hello
01:03:27Hi
01:03:27Hi Kesha
01:03:29How are you
01:03:29Oh this means the world
01:03:31This has just been
01:03:32What I wanted to do
01:03:33Since I could walk
01:03:34Little seven year old
01:03:36Kesha
01:03:37Who picked up
01:03:38Her first red guitar
01:03:39And sung at Jindy Idol
01:03:41Would be over the moon
01:03:43Jindy Idol
01:03:44This section
01:03:45Was like
01:03:46That was it
01:03:47That was the stage
01:03:48Okay
01:03:48Talk to me about your song
01:03:50I've got
01:03:50Take Me to Church
01:03:51Hosier
01:03:52Hosier
01:03:53One of my favourite songs
01:03:54Have you ever used
01:03:55These in ears
01:03:57I've never used them
01:03:58Okay
01:03:58Don't panic yourself
01:04:00This is a new experience
01:04:01Having these ears
01:04:02But it's super important
01:04:04Because once a crowd's in here
01:04:06You won't hear them
01:04:07If you don't have
01:04:09Those in
01:04:10How do I do it
01:04:11Oh my god
01:04:20A lot going on in my ears
01:04:22So what are you focusing on
01:04:25In your ears
01:04:26Are you listening for
01:04:27Your pitch
01:04:27I'm not listening for anything
01:04:29The ears are wigging me out
01:04:31I think I'm thinking about
01:04:33Trying to listen to too many things
01:04:35The ears are a bit
01:04:37It's a bit like
01:04:39Hectic
01:04:39Having to listen to 50 things at once
01:04:41I've never really
01:04:43Used that before
01:04:45Don't panic yourself
01:04:48It's too much
01:04:51I can't cope
01:04:57Stupid
01:05:01There's just no room
01:05:03For mock-ups
01:05:04Or mistakes
01:05:04This is all
01:05:06I've ever wanted
01:05:07I really want to make it
01:05:10To the top 12
01:05:14She's the singing skier
01:05:16Transforming
01:05:17On the idle stage
01:05:18Usually she's conquering the slopes
01:05:20But tonight
01:05:21She's hoping for a peak performance
01:05:24She's bold
01:05:25She's fearless
01:05:26She's about to hit
01:05:27Top speed
01:05:28This is Kesha
01:05:36My love has got humour
01:05:39She's a giggle at a funeral
01:05:42Knows everybody's disapproval
01:05:45I should have worshipped her sooner
01:05:48If the heavens ever did to speak
01:05:51She's the last true mouthpiece
01:05:54Every Sunday's getting more bleak
01:05:57A fresh poison each week
01:06:00I was born sick
01:06:02But I love it
01:06:04Command me to be well
01:06:19Take me to church
01:06:21I'll worship like a dog
01:06:23At the shrine of your lies
01:06:25I'll tell you my sins
01:06:27So you can sharpen your knife
01:06:29Offer me that deathless death
01:06:32Oh good God
01:06:33Let me give you my life
01:06:36If I'm a pagan of the good times
01:06:40My love is the sunlight
01:06:42To keep the goddess on my side
01:06:45She demands a sacrifice
01:06:48This looks tasty
01:06:50This looks plenty
01:06:52This is hungry work
01:06:55Take me to church
01:06:59I'll worship like a dog
01:07:01At the shrine of your lies
01:07:03I'll tell you my sins
01:07:04So you can sharpen your knife
01:07:07Offer me that deathless death
01:07:09Oh good God
01:07:10Let me give you my life
01:07:13Take me to church
01:07:14I'll worship like a dog
01:07:17At the shrine of your lies
01:07:18I'll tell you my sins
01:07:20So you can sharpen your knife
01:07:22Offer me that deathless death
01:07:25Good God
01:07:27Good God
01:07:27Let me give you my life
01:07:44Thank you
01:07:57Kesha
01:07:59Firstly
01:08:00Outfit
01:08:01Babe
01:08:02It's
01:08:03Killing it
01:08:04That looks amazing
01:08:05You're my inspiration
01:08:06Oh damn
01:08:09Look
01:08:10Those ears
01:08:11In ears
01:08:12Can be so isolating
01:08:14I was terrified of them
01:08:16For so long
01:08:17Me too
01:08:17And it's going to take you a minute
01:08:19To work out
01:08:20Just the mix you want
01:08:22And I think
01:08:23For the singer that you are
01:08:25It's just always
01:08:26As long as you can hear
01:08:27Your vocals
01:08:28All the time
01:08:29And I'm sure you got
01:08:30Told that by Carmen
01:08:31And everyone
01:08:31But I think
01:08:33For someone who has not used them
01:08:35You crush that
01:08:36Thank you
01:08:37Like that would have been scary
01:08:40But
01:08:40It was different
01:08:41It was different
01:08:42Yeah
01:08:42And I think
01:08:44Like considering
01:08:45Considering that
01:08:46That still to me
01:08:48Looked so effortless
01:08:50And I love that you just stood there
01:08:51Some people get really overwhelmed
01:08:53When they get to this part
01:08:54Of the competition
01:08:55And they feel like
01:08:56They need to look like
01:08:57They've been doing it for years
01:08:58When we
01:08:59We know they haven't
01:09:00So
01:09:00But you didn't try and do that
01:09:02You just focused
01:09:03And you stood still
01:09:04And you knew
01:09:05That you had
01:09:06This new problem
01:09:07And you were just like
01:09:08Wanting to focus
01:09:08And I could see you doing that
01:09:10And I think
01:09:11I think it was just amazing
01:09:13I think you should be
01:09:13Really proud of yourself
01:09:14Thank you so much
01:09:15That means a lot
01:09:16Thank you
01:09:20You know Kesha
01:09:21It's a new world
01:09:22When it comes to the in-ear thing
01:09:24And I will drop
01:09:26One of the biggest names
01:09:27In the industry
01:09:28And his name is Tom Jones
01:09:30Tom Jones was the person
01:09:32Who told me 20 years ago
01:09:34Girlfriend you want to keep your voice
01:09:38Learn how to use in-ears
01:09:39And I'm so sorry
01:09:41That it was frustrating
01:09:42And you've got to come here
01:09:43And perform
01:09:44But you've got to learn
01:09:45As you go honey
01:09:46And I think you tore that up
01:09:48Well done
01:09:49Thank you
01:09:50Thank you so much
01:09:55You ready for the truth?
01:09:57Do you say anything
01:09:59Other than the truth?
01:09:59True, true
01:10:00So ready
01:10:01If that
01:10:02If that was your performance level
01:10:04While you're struggling
01:10:06To deal with that new
01:10:07Bit of technical equipment
01:10:09Then you're killing it in life
01:10:11Because that
01:10:12Is freaking
01:10:13My favourite performance
01:10:15Of the night
01:10:16You look incredible
01:10:17It's Xena Warrior Princess
01:10:19The vocal was great
01:10:20You put a very popular radio song
01:10:22And you gave it a little bit
01:10:24Of a twitch
01:10:24And a flick
01:10:25But I loved it
01:10:26I ate up every bit of it
01:10:28You're a real contender
01:10:29That was excellent work
01:10:31I loved every second of it
01:10:32Thank you so much
01:10:33Thank you so much
01:10:33Thank you so much
01:10:35Thank you so much
01:10:36Kesha
01:10:37Kyle loves a twitch
01:10:38And a flick
01:10:39Doesn't he?
01:10:40Oh don't we
01:10:40Don't we all
01:10:43Don't we all
01:10:43Kesha
01:10:43You look amazing
01:10:45You sounded incredible
01:10:46How was that for you?
01:10:47Oh my gosh
01:10:48Performing
01:10:49To this amazing crowd
01:10:50To my beautiful
01:10:51Friends and family
01:10:52Like
01:10:52I've not had
01:10:54A funer time
01:10:55This is the best
01:10:55Thing ever
01:10:56That was amazing
01:10:57I'm so excited
01:10:58To be here
01:10:58Kesha
01:10:59I could see
01:10:59That your hometown
