Australia 2020
Don’t Break Me
Montaigne

After a successful debut this year, Australia Decides is returning to the Gold Coast for 2020! Will they be able to top what was a very strong national selection?

I’m so happy that 2019 proved that televoters are still willing to pick up the phone and vote for Australia.

 

I wonder if we’ll get any returnees in this selection - I’d be up for seeing Sheppard give it another shot (and Courtney Act :kink:)

Ausralian Idol winner Casey Donovan, and Vanessa Amorosi, revealed as the first two artists!

 

*cue the shrieks of Liam singing Absolutely Everybody*

^ :lol:

 

But hype!

VANESSA!!

 

Casey is a good pick too, fabulous singer who hasn't really had a chance musically for years even though she had the career resurgence winning I'm A Celeb!

Yass. Vanessa is one of Australia’s best singers for sure <3

Can Jessica just rep them again please

I assume Vanessa's entry is called Gimme Your Love, she's using a song from her album for this and it's the one that happens to clock in at 3:00 :lol: I am yet to hear but it is ofc out in Australia.

 

NF season has officially started guys :cry:

I don't think that's a winner sadly but it's a nice little bop from her that I think will grow a lot.

I guess she could also just as easily make a quick edit to one of the other tracks, as most of them are only a shade over three minutes long. Need to check it out this week.

Next two acts are Mitch Tambo (Australia’s Got Talent) and iOTA (singer/actor who’s done some stage work and had minor roles in The Great Gatsby and Mad Max: Fury Road)

I'd put money on Mitch having a shot to win this! Ofc we don't know the song but he's got quite the full package, a brilliant voice, stage presence and something a bit different (he mixes contemporary music with the Aboriginal language). When Eurofans shit themselves over Electric Fields as much as they did (or was that just my timeline, it was legit ALL I heard and they all hated Kate MH bc of her winning and not them), just wait til they see Mitch :lol:

Another two acts, Montaigne and Didirri (the latter appears to be someone that Joseph would enjoy x)

Love Montaigne, her music is often used as a soundbed in Neighbours, she’s really quirky and fun.

Montaigne is fab, this lineup is shaping up amazingly :wub:

Digging a little deeper into this Mitch Tambo fella and blimey, if they can pull off something similar to his cover of "The Voice" then this could be another Aussie slam-dunk!

 

The line-up is complete! Diana Rouvas (The Voice Australia 2019 winner), Jack Vidgen (Australia's Got Talent 2011 & The Voice AU 2019 contestant), Jordan-Ravi and Jaguar Jonze are the final acts. Jordan-Ravi will be singing a song called "Pushing Stars" and Jack Vidgen will be singing "I Am King I Am Queen", which is out now!
