The International Songwriting Competition (ISC) is pleased to announce its 2005 finalists. The finalists were selected out of almost 15,000 entries from 80 countries and represent the top 1.4% of all entries submitted.

The finalists' songs are currently in the judges' hands, and winners will be announced in March, 2006 when the ISC judges have made their decision. Over $150,000 in cash and merchandise will be awarded to 50 winners, including the top honors of ISC 2005 Overall Grand Prize winner.

The ISC Grand Prize package is carefully put together to benefit the winning songwriter and maximize his or her songwriting career, including: $10,000 cash (US); a college radio promotion campaign; legal services from a music attorney; a CD Duplication Package; premium recording software and hardware; music and recording equipment; and much more.

The 2005 ISC finalists' songs are also listed online for the 2005 People's Voice - an online voting contest that allows the public to listen to and vote for their favorite ISC finalist.
