I don't watch talent or reality shows but I happened to see a story on the news about this woman and her appearance on the show Britains got talent. It's simply incredible and quite inspiring.

"Never judge a book by its cover"....

We are all guilty of this at times and it takes people like Susan Boyle  to shock us all back to reality.

Yes, Susan Boyle has an amazing voice and I wish her all the best. :)

Why do I get the impression that this Simon guy already knew how good her voice was and the impact she'd have - standing there looking like your maiden aunt then singing that first note so beautifully.

However she fares in the contest she's become an overnight sensation in the US, somewhat like our new President but perhaps not on the same scale.

BTW, IMO she sang it much better than Elaine Page. :)


That's not difficult... ;)

"It's me, EP..." ::) ;D

Here too... she made national news!

I've watched the video about 10 times now... got the song stuck in my head  ::)

I think her song choice greatly added to make the scene... It wouldn't have had the same impact had it been some fluky mainstream hit... This song sounds like an anthem... it was awesome  :)

Cheers
