Guests tonight are U.S. soul singer Sharon Jones, vicarious soul sister Meshel Laurie, soulful Mental As Anything frontman Martin Plaza, and the soul of wit, comedian Dave O'Neil. Sharon Jones reveals a captivating previous occupation, Dave nails his one-hit wonders in Know Your Product and Meshel shines in a very different Look What They've Done To My Song Ma. We've also managed to squeeze in a Something's Missing segment featuring more dodgy album covers and if a barking-mad Substitute book doesn't have you enthralled, we wrap it up with a whole bunch of one-hit wonders to reminisce about.

Contributing to tonight's high jinks are comedian and radio commentator Amanda Keller, movie producer Al Clark, singer Angie Hart and the hair-raising Frank Woodley. Myf tells us about a grave encounter at Graceland, and the video clip in Please Please Tell Me Now holds a nostalgic surprise for Al Clark. Also on the bill tonight, anagram mayhem – and no, that's not one - in All Shook Up, some frenzied doodling in Cover Versions and a funky finale that will have you snarling "book 'em Danno" all week.

Yodelling up a storm tonight is Mary Schneider, joined by international DJ Carl Cox, Scaredy Rusty Berther, and the mostly well-behaved Meshel Laurie. There's a world of interest when Carl tells us how he spent the dawn of the millennium and there's an odd-couple moment when Mary identifies the eclectic rocker who uses her music on stage. In other news, Rusty nails his record labels topic in Know Your Product, Sir Mix and Matchalot unearths the longest ever album title, and Myf is passionate about souveniring her team's Substitute book.

Guests include classical double bassist Kirsty McCahon, Adelaide hip-hopper MC Suffa, the disarmingly distracted Frank Woodley, and the always scream-worthy Hamish Blake. In tonight's quest for domination, the teams are given five words to identify songs in Word Up and take a crack at interpreting some dubious artistry in Cover Versions. Hamish wonders why Kirsty makes do with her antiquated double bass when she could buy a nice new shiny one, we all wonder if Alan has been moonlighting in a parallel universe, and if you ever wondered what a Klezmer band was, don't miss the wonderful Klezmeritis in Look What They've Done To My Song Ma.

Hilarity overload tonight with actor and singer Debra Byrne, actor and singer Jesse Griffin, actor and singer Andy Anderson and ..... Dave O'Neil. In the hirsute of happiness, we've unearthed some footage of an impressively follicled Andy singing with Running Jumping Standing Still, and Jesse fondly recalls his reggae phase featuring redhead dreads. Look What They've Done To My Song Ma proves a challenge for everyone except the audience, there are some truly weird album covers in Something's Missing, and Jesse leaves no philosophical stone unturned in his closing song.

Vying for victory are Canadian alternative country singer Martha Wainwright, Oz Idol contender Rob Mills, lovable lunatic Ross Noble, and just plain adorable Hamish Blake. In tonight's contest Martha and Ross lock horns and prove opposites don't necessarily attract, while Millsy dishes the dirt and comes clean about Paris Hilton. The teams wrestle with more silly scenarios in One Out of Three Ain't Bad, the Wainwright musical lineage is apparent when Martha sings in Substitute, and Millsy's closing tuneful tribute is a trip.

We push the boat out with soprano Antoinette Halloran, comedian and writer Anthony Morgan, Steve Mallinder from electronic outfit Cabaret Voltaire, and crowd-pleasing comedian Denise Scott. Antoinette's connection with Elvis Costello is noted a few thousand times, and Steve's days of anonymity as a uni lecturer are numbered when we show some bygone Cabaret Voltaire footage. Vocal gymnast Mal Webb takes Look What They've Done To My Song to a wonderfully strange new level, Please Please Tell Me Now resurrects a classic video that puts Anthony in a spin, and Myf shows how it's done when she sings in Substitute.

Taking a shot at glory tonight are longstanding fave Ella Hooper, cheeky comedian Akmal Salek, effusive music legend Robin Lumley, and house hottie Hamish Blake. Akmal reveals why Richard Branson won't be calling any time soon, and Robin treats us to a show-and-tell from his days in David Bowie's band. Our teams try to work out celebrity connections in Common People, the bike returns for a workout in Malvern Stars on 45, and keep a lookout for the finale which features some vintage Australian prog rock with a twist.

Striving for best on ground tonight are singer/songwriter Mike Brady, comedian Frank Woodley, singer Rebecca Barnard, and musical comedian Tim Minchin. Mike, Myf and Frank contest the mark with admirable air-guitar action in Know Your Product, and bluegrass band Hard Drive yee-haa up a storm in Look What They've Done To My Song Ma. Mike reports on the endurance of "Up There Cazaly", Frank is tackled on an issue of crowd participation, while Tim and Adam play on in a touching and possibly out-of-bounds musical playout.
