THE road to crowning Idols SA season 14’s winner is getting narrower.

The new young and glamorous Top 10 were unveiled on Sunday night.

The theme was the judges’ playlist – a friendly match to see which judge would have the most songs picked by the contestants.

Unathi won it with a tally of five songs.

The first on stage was Nosipho, who performed Lady Zamar’s pop hit, Collide.

Randall said it reminded him of Australian-British singer Kylie Minogue and Somizi said it was a forgettable performance.

Next on was Mthokozisi, who took on Maxwell’s Ascension, a decision applauded by Unathi, who said: “To attempt a falsetto with such a deep voice is commendable.”

Lincoln came on stage in a flamboyant floral outfit, which he said was inspired by Somizi. His rendition of Ringo’s Sondela was respectful, according to Unathi. Randall felt he brought soul to the song, and Somizi said he killed it.

Thato brought it back home with I Got You by Encore. Somizi said Thato was the full package.

Thando got a standing ovation after her performance of Aretha Franklin’s You Make Me Feel Like a Natural Woman.

King B had all eyes on him as he sang Love on the Brain by Rihanna, with just a piano for accompaniment.

Teen wonder Yanga closed off the show with a rendition of Amazulu by Amanda Black which left Unathi emotional. “I specifically chose that song for you and hoped you’d pick it. You have done it justice,” said Unathi.
