  • The 2010 New Cambria National Song Contest was the seventh running of New Cambria Television's popular annual music competition. It took place over six successive Saturday evenings from 6 November to 11 December 2010. The format for the 2010 contest would be largely the same as that for the expanded 2009 contest. Forty songs competed in four weekly Semi Finals, from which fifteen qualified to the Grand Final Gala on 11 December. A total of 901 song submissions were received, a 16% decrease from the previous year. The shows were co-presented by Jelena Jakupović, hostess of NCT's morning program Today Now, and Noah Kavanagh, presenter of the popular issues-oriented chat show Counterpoint. Both were returning presenters of the contest; Jakupović co-hosted two of the Semi-Finals in 2008 with Christopher Bear, and Kavanagh presented all five preliminary rounds solo in 2009. Jakupović and Kavanagh hosted the 2009 Grand Final Gala together, with Kavanagh filling in for Brad Nivens at the last minute. Blake Underwood directed the contest for the fourth time, having previously done so in 2006, 2008 and 2009. In a notable change to the rules, 2010 was the first year in which contest fans could select four acts to compete in the live shows, by voting in an online qualifier round. The four winners of the online qualifier were added to the thirty-six entries selected by the judging committee. Frazier stated that this change was intended to both allow fans a greater involvement in the contest, and to encourage participation among amateur and unsigned musicians, who would otherwise lack the resources to promote their own talent. Performing the song "Never Again Without You," nineteen-year-old Glenna St. Martin won the contest with 148 points. Cadence in Time, the winners in 2006, took second place with 142 points.
