Australia’s Got Talent may only be on its fifth audition round, but it’s already blown the country away with acts that range from daring, to touching, to downright racy.

This Sunday however, the most moving act the show has maybe ever seen will hit screens, and it’s left almost every judge in tears.

A choir counting over 350 all-female members can be seen filing onto the Australia’s Got Talent stage, barely squeezing everyone in.

Though the reason for the choir’s existence is not disclosed, the women clearly share a close bond, with one member wiping away tears as she discusses it.

“The choir has helped me become visible,” she says, before her voice cracks.

The judges are similarly moved after a performance that garners the group a standing ovation.

Lucy Durack is seen wiping tears, as are Nicole Scherzinger and Shane Jacobson.

“When they say there is power in numbers...” Nicole says, before grabbing Lucy’s hand and standing to cheer the women.

Shane Jacobson wasn’t immune from the emotion either, choking back tears to share how the performance affected him.

“I wish my sons were here to witness that, but I wish my wife was here and my daughter was here as well,” he says.

The huge choir are dressed all in black with bright flowers pinned to their blouses, and the crowd absolutely loved them, rising to their feet along with the judges to cheer a performance we can’t wait to see.

It’s not the first performance to make waves, though others have done so for vastly different reasons.

A contortionist with a devilish flair left viewers sick to their stomachs, but impressed enough judges to get the green light.

Similarly, the aptly-named ‘Pricasso’ sparked official decency complaints from viewers at home, but got the ‘ok’ from the panel to go through to the next round.
