The Edge Breakfast show had one heck of a morning. Dan bravely stepped up for another round of Hit the Spot – the segment where he has to jump in and sing the exact right moment a song starts. The track? None other than ‘Battle Scars’ by Guy Sebastian.
What Dan didn’t know… was that Guy himself was secretly in the producer booth, watching the whole thing go down.
Unfortunately for Dan, his inner metronome was running a little fast, and he missed the spot. Cue the embarrassment from Clint, Ash, and the producers. But before Dan could even process what happened, Guy strolled out of the next room. The surprise on Dan’s face was unbeatable, as was Guy’s eagerness to attempt the bit himself.
Redemption was on the table, and this time, it was Guy’s turn to hit the spot with his own song. No pressure, right?
He absolutely nailed it. The timing was perfect, the room erupted, and the Edge team lost it.
Dan got stitched up. The audience got a surprise celeb cameo. And Guy? He proved once and for all that he’s got impeccable timing even without a backing track.
Easily one of our favourite Hit the Spot moments yet, and proof that sometimes, missing it sets up something even better.
