Eriksen, Tor Erik Hermansen, Sandy Wilhelm, and Ester Dean. It became a massive commercial success, reaching the top of the charts in several countries. The song's empowering lyrics encourage self-confidence and embracing one's uniqueness, often interpreted as an anthem for self-empowerment and resilience.
