Hello All,

Recently on a UK television program"Britains Got Talent"
47 yr. old Susan Boyle got her turn.

Take a few minutes to watch this, I was floored
as were the 3 judges.

Cheers.

Just goes to show 'you never can tell'. Nice to see the smile wiped off cowels face, in a good way too.
The girl from the highlands rocked their world.

Thanks for posting the link Mr Bill, I had read about this in the paper but never seen or heard her. You're right, she has real talent. I really hope her dream comes true, she deserves it.

Yep. And I'd like to see the smile wiped off Piers Morgan's face too - and not in a good way! (Left-hand of the three judges.)

Anyway: good for Susan Boyle, huh? We love an underdog!

Cheers - C

I've watched that several times today and every time i end up in tears. I dont even like theatre. Last time i was there i wanted to know when the girl with the icecreams was coming round.
Beauty in a voice.

Hello Nikininja,

Frankly, I got a little misty eyed myself.
I surely hope all the best for her.
This is one of those feel good stories. :wink:

Yep i'm a softy for a nobody come good story. I really wish Susan Boyle all the best, when her cd comes out i'll definitely buy it, even if i dont like the stuff. People like her dont come along every day. I watched this news cast of her earlier she's really humble and quite endearing too. Just a normal girl wanting normal stuff, with a set of pipes to make angels envious.

The first time I saw her was on youtube and I thought it was fake. Then I saw it on the news and realized she was for real. What an incredible voice! I can't believe she has gone unnoticed all these years.
