That was great but can she pull it off in other genres?
everyone knows that they go through screeners before they go on stage

I highly doubt it. Even if there was a screening process it doesn't diminish the genuine talent or sentiment among the audience (both studio and internet). Anyways, it's a shame that what you took from that video is that everyone's just a bunch of easily manipulated rubes. Get over yourself.
I haven't listened to it, but the only recording she's ever done is of 'Cry Me a River' which is a Justin Timberlake song IIRC. Unless his was a pop cover or something.
MiamiHeat is just butthurt because his fat ass wife can't sing like that.
Now now, don't bring his wife in this.
Simons face was funny. One point it looked like he wanted to jiz in his pants.

His was a pop song that had the same le as an old standard.
That was really touching and inspiring.
It just goes to show you...there really is beauty in almost everything.
cool stuff.
I actually thought she was pretty dreadful there...
I have a feeling that people are making more of a fuzz because she's ugly and can sing decently rather than because of her being a great, great singer. IMO she's not all that special, singing wise. She's got a great personality though.
Great and Super for Her! I especially liked 'Cry Me a River' - fantastic! I hope she does very well with her dream, has tons of fun & keeps her feet firm on the ground. I quite enjoyed all her songs.
I've had to listen to it a few times already ... I loved that.
As soon as I saw that girl I was DYING for her to kick ass.
What the heck are you talking about? You think she's the only unattractive
"decent" singer they've had on the show? Do you even know who Simon is or how thoroughly he trashes "decent" singers?

Has an eye-roll ever backfired that much?
Still, the way they edit these shows you can't assume that actually happened when Susan said she wants to be a professional singer.
They offered her to make a porn movie for 1 million dolars, since she is virgin
Anyway, WOW just WOW, she is amazing! It was lovely to see how all their faces changed the moment she started to sing.

SIMON GOT PWNED!!! nothing he could do, he just HAD to sit back and smile and be AMAZED at the woman who is ugly but can sing!!!!
Thanks for letting us know you liked it.

damn
you guys really believe that?
Simon planned this all along. He has gotten filthy stinking rich off that English show because unlike the US version he OWNS the talent. They have to sign a contract with his record label before they can even be on the show.
That was NO accident, and Simon was NOT surprised at how good she was.
You've been played.
first things first. she needs to do something about her damn hair.
"Vidal Sasoon" Las Espuelas!!
ooh la la
just look at it. every damn shot she's in her hair looks the same.
Has anybody seen the kid who sang the Michael Jackson song? Might give her a run for the money.
http://tv.yahoo.com/blog/why-were-al...san-boyle--253Susan Boyle: Angelic voice or over-hyped?
As you've no doubt noticed by now, "Britain's Got Talent" contestant Susan Boyle has recently taken over the world. She is everywhere, and I'm being told incessantly that I'm to find her an "inspiration," even though that makes no sense. I don't begrudge the woman herself for it, because how was she supposed to know the world was going to go crazy over her? But I do, however, have a huge bone to pick with the media's coverage of this story. Here's why.
Simon Cowell Obviously Knew She Could Sing Beforehand
No way did she make it to the "Britain's Got Talent" stage before passing some kind of screening process, meaning the producers -- including Simon -- knew already that she was going to be able to sing. I don't deny that the shocked reactions were entertaining to watch, but they also seem kinda fake.
If You've Never Been Kissed, It Was Probably By Choice
The part of her story the media seems most moved by is her claim that she is not only a 47-year-old virgin, but that she has also never been kissed. We're supposed to feel really bad about this, but don't we all know some truly unfortunate-looking people who have managed to find somebody to make out with at least once in their lives? She's either lying or it was her choice not to do so. Either way, it's not a reason for someone to be famous.
She's Not That Good
If she were attractive and had the exact same voice, she wouldn't have gotten any attention. There is something so condescending about lavishing huge praise on someone for sounding slightly better than the sad reality TV crazy they appeared to be.
This Has Gone from Harmless Human Interest Story to Horrifying in Record Time
I refrained from talking too much about Susan when her story first broke, other than saying I don't really get the excitement over her, but now the poor woman's been publicly offered everything from makeovers to her own porno, and so I have to say that this is just bringing out the commercializing worst in everyone. Saying someone is an inspiration for not being ashamed of looking the way they do when you think she should be is bad enough, but then insisting they need a makeover so both parties can make a few bucks is contradictory and infuriating. Don't get me started on the disgusting porn offer.
How, Exactly, is She Inspiring?
I'm honestly asking. Is it because she has the strength to go on living despite not being gorgeous? That seems to be what I'm being told day and night. How amazing! I know we all already knew this, but the media really, truly is the worst.
A ing men, oooh ugly people have skills besides being ugly, what a concept. She should copyright that .
