Thank you speech free essay sample

Let me begin by saying I am simply speechless. This is just amazing! I am completely overwhelmed with this honor. Thank you all so much. Ever since I began to get serious about my music, to win, or even be nominated for, a Grammy seemed like such an unobtainable achievement. Which is why I cannot believe that I am standing here receiving this award, and not just any award, but the Grammy for Best New Artist. This is every new musicians dream, and I’m living it! So, for starters, I’d like to thank each and every fan out there that helped make my music such a success; a musician is nothing without her fan base, so just know that you all helped make this possible. Next, I’d like to thank my team behind the scenes that made all the magic happen. Without them there would be no Grammy, no fame, no album, no me.
