“Shallow” by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper, from the film A Star Is Born, quickly became a global sensation — and its emotional power struck a particular chord with New Zealand audiences. Whether playing at weddings in Queenstown, acoustic sessions in Auckland cafes, or late-night singalongs in Wellington flats, this ballad became a defining song of the decade for Kiwi fans.

The music video showcases raw, vulnerable storytelling and a stripped-back performance style that resonates deeply with New Zealand’s love for authenticity and acoustic artistry. Gaga’s powerhouse vocals paired with Cooper’s understated emotion mirror the kind of honest, heart-on-sleeve songwriting that many Kiwi musicians strive for in their own craft.

More than a song, “Shallow” sparked local covers, viral TikToks, and even high school performances across Aotearoa. It’s a reminder that even in a small country at the edge of the world, music this honest finds a big place in people’s lives.
