Pretty neat imo.
Uglies and losers around the world rejoiced after this one.
This has been all over the morning news shows.
Didn't this happen a couple of years ago with that fat opera singing butcher?
Just goes to show, everyone's got something special.
Yeah I thought it was cool too. I'll admit when I first saw it I thought it was going to be something humorous.
Good for her.
uh...ok?
and 47 yrs old and never been kissed?
excuse me while i puke.
My dad called me few minutes ago and told me about this vid, so I just happened to stumble across this thread when I was looking for an Idol thread so I could post it in said thread. So props Manny... and phyzik. This deserved its own.
Beautiful.
I think this deserves a bump. I saw an interview with her this morning on Fox News. This woman is just so down-to-earth, but she has a cheekiness about her that is refreshing. She said that all the people who were mean to her in the past are now being very nice! But the best part of the video was the look on Simon's face!!
This video now has over 14 million hits! I think we're going to be seeing and HEARING a lot more from Susan Boyle. Just goes to show - you can't judge a book by its cover! You go girl!!!!!
You're damned right.
She was just amazing.

(CNN) -- Television and YouTube singing sensation Susan Boyle has promised to be on her best behavior if she wins the right to sing for the queen.
The 47-year-old Boyle, who says she has never been kissed, was catapulted into the spotlight after her rendition of "I Dreamed a Dream" from the musical "Les Miserables," on the television show "Britain's Got Talent" at the weekend.
The winner of the show gets to sing for the queen at the Royal Variety Show.
Boyle has a long way to go though -- having just won through to the second round after judge Simon Cowell described her first performance as "extraordinary."
Still, she was already thinking of how she would behave.
"Whatever comes my way, I am ready. It would be lovely to sing for the queen. There would be less of the carry on from me, and more of the singing.
"She is a very regal lady, very nice, so I would be nice too, and just get up there and give it a bit of wellie (try)," Boyle told the show's Web site.
Boyle said she was trying to take her new found fame in her stride.
"It's a challenge. Life is a challenge sometimes but this is different. And I like to test myself.
"If it all gets too much and they lock me up, I want a great big strait-jacket with spots on it. A pink one... and a big zip on the back so I can escape."
Don't Miss
A clip of Boyle's performance had more than 11 million views on YouTube by Thursday, and the world's media have beaten a path to her door in Blackburn, West Lothian, Scotland.Video Watch Boyle's singing wow the world »
Cowell is reportedly already trying to piece together a record deal for Boyle, an unemployed charity worker, who lives with her cat, Pebbles.
For fans of Boyle, who attracted laughs and s######s when she first appeared on stage before winning a standing ovation, the album cannot come quick enough.
CNN has been inundated with hundreds of messages of support for Boyle.

Simone said: "I've been so depressed all day but hearing this woman sing and reading her story gave me a pick-me-up... I look forward to hearing more of her and I hope to buy her CD as soon as it hits the shelves."
Cynthia wanted Cowell to move quickly.
"She brought tears to my eyes and a lump in my throat. I hope Simon does get her a record contract...I'll buy her CD. Never judge a book by it's cover. Susan Boyle, you go, girl!"
Jim described Boyle's talent as "unbelievable" and "beautiful."
"I wish Susan the very best in her new life and hopefully someone has put her under contract. Thank you for such a beautiful song."

Larry wanted to offer Boyle a kiss.
"I have just heard you sing for the first time -- thanks to CNN -- and I must tell you this: You are a fabulous talent, simply amazing to me that no one took advantage of your voice and passion up until now. I am a happily married man, but if I were not, and if I was in the audience, I can guarantee you that I would ask for a kiss, and if you were gracious enough to indulge me, well that would have been one of the great highlights of my life. Looking forward to the first of many albums."
Good for her. Pretty cool.
That was awesome.
Did she sing in the wrong drawl, and better than you?
I dreamed a dream in time gone by
When hope was high,
And life worth living
I dreamed that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving.
Then I was young and unafraid
When dreams were made and used,
And wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung,
No wine untasted.
But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hopes apart
As they turn your dreams to shame.
And still I dream he'll come to me
And we will live our lives together
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms
We cannot weather...
I had a dream my life would be
So different from this I'm living
So different now from what it seems
Now life has killed
The dream I dreamed.
THE Daily Record has uncovered the only CD ever made by Scotland’s singing sensation Susan Boyle... But the Record can reveal she made her first recording back in 1999, when she sang blues ballad Cry Me A River for a charity CD.
Only 1000 copies of the disc were ever produced, but we’ve got hold of the long-forgotten recording and it’s now on our site. A showbiz insider said: “This is a real coup for the Record. The whole world would have wanted to find this.

Very inspiring. You think the Queen has already caught a peek on YouTube?
Scots have the coolest accents out of anyone.
Stunning performance! I actually cried , which is rare for me! I did not like the mean girl in the YouTube vide 1:25 into the video http://www.cafepress.com/meangirlat125
I just can't stop watching this video - and it brings me to tears every time! She is such an inspiration. I wish her all the luck in the world! And I can't wait to buy her first album!
Awesome. I noticed how cruel looking that chick was the second time I watched it and said to myself, I hope she becomes famous for being a dumb, stuck up in front of tens of millions of people. Looks like she has.
It's one thing to be pessimistic, it's another thing entirely to be as stuck up and mean as that no talent waste of flesh was. Especially since she was ass ugly herself.
look at how easy it is to entertain the populace
you guys realize Simon probably set this whole thing up himself?
But....did you shed a tear?
Awesome performance!
