Some performances are more than just music—they’re moments that stop time.

When Gabriella Laberge stepped onto the stage of The Voice France in 2016, few knew her name. Dressed simply, holding a violin, she seemed quiet, maybe even shy. But the moment she began her haunting rendition of Coldplay’s “The Scientist,” everything changed.

It wasn’t just her voice—soft, aching, sincere—that captivated the judges. It was how she told the story. With every note from her violin, with every breath in her voice, Gabriella pulled the room into a fragile emotional space. By the time the first chair turned, the audience had already fallen under her spell.

All four judges turned. The crowd erupted. And that moment… that one moment where an unknown singer became unforgettable… was born.

🌍 A Performance That Went Global

That blind audition now has over 90 million views on YouTube—and it’s still climbing. Almost a decade later, short clips from the performance still go viral across TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook. People continue to discover the video for the first time, drawn in by the quiet magic of Gabriella’s performance and the goosebumps it brings.

It’s the kind of performance that doesn’t need flash or theatrics. It simply needs truth—and Gabriella gave it all.

Gabriella isn’t just a one-audition wonder. A multi-instrumentalist from Québec, she writes her own songs, plays the violin and guitar, and blends pop, folk, and classical influences into her work. Since The Voice France, she has toured internationally, released several albums, and even returned to the spotlight with a breathtaking performance on America’s Got Talent in 2021, where she again wowed audiences with her emotional depth and violin mastery.

But it’s that original audition—just her, her violin, and a Coldplay song—that continues to capture hearts around the world. It’s not just viral. It’s timeless.
