Good evening and welcome to Aarhus!
We are gathered here to find the best song in Global Music 2024!
Last year, Neon Capital won the Super Final for Denmark, which is why we are here this year.

This year, the Super Final has again been slightly altered compared to last year. 
It will consist of a total of 7 rounds of voting. In each round the competing songs will face off in duels, with the winner advancing to the next round.

The 7 rounds of the Super Final are:

ROUND 1:
All countries who did not win a medal this year and has participated in at least 3 editions and qualified for at least one final will be represented by their best placed song in 2024. 26 countries have qualified based on these terms. The winner of each duel plus one wild card will proceed to Round 2. In case of a tie in a duel, the manager selects the winner.

ROUND 2:
The songs qualified from Round 1 will be joined by the Silver and Bronze Medallists from all 12 editions of Global Music in 2024. Again the songs will go head to head in duels with one song from each duel moving on. This means that 20 songs will progress to Round 3.

ROUND 3:
The 20 qualifiers from Round 2 will join the 12 champions of 2024, so 32 songs will be competing in 16 duels with the winners moving on.

ROUND 4:
16 songs now becomes 8.

ROUND 5 - THE QUARTER FINALS:
8 songs in 4 duels.

ROUND 6 - THE SEMI FINALS:
4 songs in 2 duels

ROUND 7 - THE GRAND FINAL:
2 songs remain.
This night we will crown another Super Champion.

It's up to you to decide who will win!

The Winner

​"Hunger" by Aiko and Teya is a powerful, emotionally charged track that dives deep into themes of desire, ambition, and the yearning for more in life. The song captures the restless feeling of wanting something beyond reach, whether it's love, success, or personal fulfillment. With its haunting melodies and intense vocal performances, Aiko and Teya deliver raw emotion, balancing vulnerability with strength.

Musically, "Hunger" combines dark pop elements with a driving beat, creating a sound that is both haunting and empowering. The production is atmospheric, adding depth to the emotional lyrics and making the song resonate with listeners on a deep level.

Although "Hunger" didn't top major global charts, it gained considerable attention on streaming platforms and within the indie pop scene. Its poignant message and striking sound helped it stand out, particularly among listeners drawn to introspective and emotionally complex music.
