You've GOTTA see this video. It moved me to tears, in an inspiring and hugely entertaining way. This is a frumpy-looking 47 year-old woman who appeared on Britain's Got Talent and blew everybody away. My secret dream is to someday do what Susan Boyle did here.

I loved the look on Simon's face. Without a doubt, she embodies the concept of her song.

Wow!

Hey, I'm a total sap myself. Tears streaming onto my keyboard. If I had been one of the judges, I would have been left speechless. _________________ Best regards,

Philip
She is after all better looking than you or I for that matter. What really matters is she did it live. She did it with out Melodyne or any auto tune equipment.
Three cheers for Susan. God gives us all a talent and she got the stage to show her stuff. I look forward to hearing more from this talented lady.
Tom Thanks for sharing. _________________ Esse quam videri "To be rather than to seem"

In a contest between Christians and Lions it's so nice seeing the Lions surrender. |

Well everyone is so impressed with Susan Boyle that she is popping up all over the net. A Star Is Born? Sure seems like it. It was an amazing performance and great to watch the judges. |

If you enjoyed this, you MUST see 6 year old Connie sing at Britain's Got Talent.

Wow, what a beautiful voice. You watch, Simon will sign her up, and promote her. As voice over artists, we have learned that you can't judge a book by its cover. Hopefully she taught several of the people in the audience that lesson as well. |
