WE HAVE A WINNER!
East Rand electro-pop duo FreakWinSee – Mike Haddon and Hayleigh Chamberlain – has been chosen by you, the voting public, as the winner of the Neo Africa Sing it Loud, Sing it Proud anthem competition.
It’s been an intense competition, with hundreds of entries being received from all over South Africa. There were lots of good ones, some bad ones, and quite a few brilliant ones. But everyone brought something special to their entries, in particular the 10 Sing it Loud, Sing it Proud finalists. Each of their entries was unique, and each stirred the patriotic heart in its own way.
But there can ultimately be only one winner, and with 44% of the votes, FreakWinSee is the clear public favourite. In fact, FreakWinSee – who launched an all-out drive among friends, family and colleagues to garner support – dominated the semi-finalist voting, and strongly led the finalist voting right from the start.
Heartiest congratulations to FreakWinSee on their win, for which they walk away with the grand prize of R35 000 in cash and two tickets to the opening match of the FIFA 2010 World Cup South Africa™!
Congratulations to our runners-up: the Maritzburg College choir, who win R10 000, and Melina, who takes home R5 000.
To our other competitors, we would like to thank you sincerely, one and all, for your entries. You have all played your part in encouraging South Africans to stand proud, and your talent and creativity has been inspirational.
Don’t forget now: every time Bafana Bafana take to the pitch in the coming days and our beautiful National Anthem is played, we must all Sing it Loud, Sing it Proud!
