Davy, who prepared for her attempt by humming and making "tonnes of soup," set the mark entertaining travellers at Auckland Airport's international departure lounge, finishing on Wednesday afternoon with a sore throat, the New Zealand Herald reported.

She was allowed a five-minute break after every hour and a pause of no more than 30 seconds between songs.
