Dear friends, esteemed participants, and fans from around the globe, as we gather tonight for the results of this extraordinary NSC edition, we find ourselves united in admiration, respect, and above all, celebration of an artist who has left an indelible mark on the world of music and beyond. That artist is none other than the incomparable, the ineffable, the truly remarkable Lady Gaga.
To speak of Lady Gaga is to speak of an evolution in music and performance art that defies simple categorization. Her rise to fame was meteoric, but it was not without hard work and the courage to be different. Born Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, Lady Gaga's career began as a love affair with music that would lead her to conquer the world stage.
Her debut album, "The Fame," released in 2008, heralded the arrival of a new pop sensation, but Gaga was anything but ordinary. With hits like "Poker Face" and "Just Dance," she captivated audiences with her unique blend of pop, electronic music, and unabashed theatrics. Her performances were not just concerts; they were experiences, often controversial, always memorable.
Lady Gaga's distinct fashion sense and her bold approach to self-expression became a clarion call for individuality and acceptance. Her outfits, from the infamous meat dress to the avant-garde creations she wore on red carpets, became iconic symbols of her unapologetic identity.
But beyond the glitter and glam, beyond the chart-topping hits and sensational performances, Lady Gaga's true impact lies in her ability to touch hearts and minds. Her advocacy for mental health, LGBTQIA+ rights, and her unwavering support for marginalized communities has made her more than just a pop star. She has become a beacon of hope, empowerment, and compassion.
The release of "Born This Way" in 2011 was not just an album but a movement. Its title track became an anthem for self-love and acceptance, resonating with people of all walks of life. Her artistry continued to evolve, with each new album revealing different facets of her talent. Whether it was the jazz collaboration with Tony Bennett or the emotive storytelling in "A Star Is Born," Lady Gaga proved that she was not confined by genres or expectations.
Her awards and accolades are many, from multiple Grammy Awards to an Academy Award for Best Original Song. Yet, what truly sets Lady Gaga apart is her ability to connect, to inspire, and to create art that transcends mere entertainment.
Tonight, as we celebrate Lady Gaga's contributions to music through NSC, we are reminded that art has the power to change lives, to challenge norms, and to bring people together. We celebrate Lady Gaga not just for her songs but for her spirit, her courage, and her ceaseless dedication to being authentically and unapologetically herself.
Here's to Lady Gaga, a woman who dared to be different, who taught us to embrace our uniqueness, and who continues to inspire us with her creativity, compassion, and indomitable spirit. May her music continue to be a source of joy, inspiration, and empowerment for generations to come.
Thank you, Lady Gaga, for being a true trailblazer, a symbol of hope, and a living testament to the power of art. You've not only shaped the music industry but have touched the lives of millions. You've taught us that in a world filled with judgment, being oneself is the bravest act of all.
Now, dear audience, the moment we've all been waiting for has arrived. Let's proceed to the results, honoring the spirit of Lady Gaga, and let the music continue to unite us all!

Esteemed guests from all corners of the globe, we stand here today united by music. This vibrant tapestry of sound that we call the Nation Song Contest is more than a competition; it's a celebration of diversity, creativity, and unity. As we stand on the brink of announcing the winner, I want to take a moment to reflect on what truly matters here.
This stage, these lights, these songs – they are but a small part of the bigger picture. A winner will be crowned tonight, indeed, but let us not forget that the essence of this contest transcends winning and losing. The pursuit of victory, while thrilling, is but a fleeting quest. The melody fades, the applause subsides, but what remains is the bond we've formed, the music we've discovered, and the journey we've embarked upon together.
Music, in its most profound form, is a bridge - a bridge that connects cultures, experiences, and hearts. Each song we've listened to tonight represents a story, a sentiment, an emotion that resonates with us on a personal level. The true magic of this contest is not found in the pursuit of victory, but in the shared experience of discovery. Discovering new music, new cultures, and new perspectives. This is the real triumph.
Here, we are more than competitors. We are explorers, embarking on a musical journey. We share in the joy of each performer, feel the pulse of each melody, and let our spirits soar on the wings of every chorus. Each song is a gift, not just to the ears, but to the soul. And each one of us, whether we hail from the east or the west, the north or the south, adds a unique note to this symphony of unity.
Our connections, the friendships we form, the shared moments of joy and anticipation – these are the experiences that enrich us. Winning a contest can be a moment of ex-hilaration, but the relationships we build and the understanding we foster are the rewards that truly last. This community, bonded by our shared love for music and respect for each other, is the true testament to the spirit of this contest.
So, let us revel not in the glory of victory but in the shared joy of music. Let us remember that it's not the laurels that matter, but the harmony we create. The world may remember who won, but we will remember the melodies that touched our hearts, the voices that stirred our souls, and the connections that made us feel like one global family.
Tonight, let's celebrate the beauty of this shared experience. The bonds we've formed here are more enduring than any trophy. As we delve into the results, remember that each one of us is a winner, for we've embarked on an extraordinary musical journey together, and we've discovered the unifying power of music.
So, here's to new discoveries, to enduring friendships, and to the joy of music that brings us all together. Because in the end, it's not about winning or losing; it's about the harmony we create when we come together through music.
