About this episode

At the beginning of the episode, Supernova wanted to see an encore of one rocker, which was Dilana. Phil, Chris and Matt were placed in the bottom three based on votes from around the world. Magni, Ryan and Zayra were also in the bottom three at some time during voting. They each performed one cover song of their choosing. Elimination was based on this additional performance and their previous performance. Subsequently, Matt was chosen by the band to be eliminated. Despite praising his previous nights performance of "Yellow" by Coldplay, Supernova claimed that Matt's elimination was based on his song choice; Jason, in particular, had exhorted Matt to "bring the rock" with his selection, and Matt's choice of "Planet Earth" by Duran Duran was seen as not being nearly "rock" enough.
