Matt Corby Disco Video | “Australian Idol” Hottie Scores a Touchdown
Published on
Idol competitions around the world tend to follow the same format: the singers perform and the judges deliver their verdict. But sometimes words just aren’t enough to express how good a performance really is. In Australia, that’s called a touchdown.
Teen sensation Matt Corby scored this year’s first touchdown with his version of Got To Get You Into My Life. Disco Week had the potential to stump many competitors, but not Matt.
He made a clever song choice, combining The Beatles melodies with Earth, Wind and Fire’s disco grooves. With this stellar effort, it’s clear that this good looking lad won’t leave the competition just yet.

I think Matt’s going to win but I’m going for Ben!

I flicked channels to Australian Idol a few weeks ago and happened upon Matt Corby kicking off ‘Gotta Get You Into My Life’. As an older viewer (35 yrs) I was STUNNED at how good this was. Not only is it a classic song but his performance was just magical. I don’t know what the rest of the contestants can knock out but hands down, this man should be on the airwaves. How does someone this young, get his voice so good, and get the groove SO right??

I agree with you AJ. No disrespect to his teenage audience, but it’s also so refreshing to hear from someone else who can see this kid really has so much more going for him than his good looks. He can interpret a lyric better than a lot of guys twice his age – if this is what he can do at 16 it blows my mind just how good he will be.
