Susan Boyle Sings

She’s awesome! But damn, when she said she was 47, I was shocked. I thought she was at least 55.

Anyone seen this? I’m not sure how I came across it, but it’s amazing. There’s a longer version available for the whole performance. Sent chills down my spine.

Loved it! Gotta admit I got a bit misty-eyed. I wouldn’t be surprised if there were people around her telling her not to bother; too old, too fat, too ugly. But, she believed in herself and delivered.

Awesome videos as well! We don’t really get this show over here, so feel free to post anything else cool that happens on the show.[/quote]

Will do. I don’t watch it much, but if I hear anything I’ll post up.

Not sure I get the hoopla, who cares what she looks like? Good singing is good singing, but why is this such a huge story? The overweight opera dude from a couple years ago was more impressive.

Hate to say it, but if she is going to do a record, think Milli Vanilli. As in someone else’s face will be on the record.

I like the irony in your post. This is exactly what some people have been saying shouldn’t be an issue for talented singers, but we have become accustomed to seeing pretty faces in music videos.

Not too suprised, that show has churned out great talent.

I am curious if she’s had any vocal training. That voice sounds a little too mature (performance-wise) to be something that she was simply born with. It sounds very polished. I’m not trying to take away from her spotlight at all, either.

Good for her.

If you watch the long version, they ask her how long she’s been singing and she says since she was 12. Probably just church and small gatherings.

People call her the songbird of her generation.

For God’s sake, someone throw a bra on her.
