If there’s a bloke in the finals group who can master this theme, it’s Ricky Muscat. As Marcia Hines so expertly points out, R&B and Disco are related. It’s another form of soulful music and Ricky has the perfect voice for the occasion. With a few trademark shimmies, Ricky gets the crowd dancing, but has he impressed the panel? Mark compliments the youngster but ends his spiel by calling it ‘a really long two minutes’. Of course, Marcia puts the judgement into perspective by saying, “everyone has there own opinion, not that anybody takes much notice of Mark’s”. The Australian Idol inter-panel feud continues to build momentum. Maybe Marcia will be the one who throws a cup of water on Mark this year.
