Background and release
In 2006, Jessica Mauboy auditioned for the fourth season of Australian Idol, in Alice Springs, Northern Territory, singing "I Have Nothing" by Whitney Houston. Her audition impressed the judges, and she progressed to the semi-finals. Following the semi-final rounds, she advanced into the top twelve, and after progressing to the final two, Mauboy was announced as the runner-up to fellow contestant Damien Leith. Two weeks after the conclusion of Australian Idol, Mauboy signed a recording contract with Sony BMG Australia, and released The Journey in Australia on 24 February 2007. Released as a two-disc package, it contains re-recorded covers of the selected songs Mauboy performed as part of the top twelve on Australian Idol, and a DVD of her live performances in the series. The Journey debuted at number four on the ARIA Albums Chart and was certified gold by the Australian Recording Industry Association for shipments of 35,000 copies.
