This should cheer you up...

[REWahoo]

I dislike this show, whether the American or some other version. However, this has to be the most surprising and amazing performance I've seen in a long, long time...

EDIT: Can't embed the video so you'll need to go to YouTube - Broadcast Yourself. and do a search for "Susan Boyle - Singer - Britains Got Talent 2009".

Double click on the video; it will say something about embedding. Double click again and will take you to video in youtube in new tab.

(At least with firefox and my settings.)

[REWahoo]

Never judge a book by its cover, eh?
What a beautiful voice she has, and such strength in her delivery. WOW!!!

 

[Purron]

I love her!!!! Thanks REWahoo, my spirits were lifted.

 

[bbbamI]

She is beautiful...thanks REWahoo....

I thought it was a prank, lip-synched at first. Neat clip.

 

[Orchidflower]

Yes, thank you, REWahoo, for sharing that. Fabulous!

I liked the British cell phone salesman who sang the Nessun Dorma better.

 

[Dreamer]

Enjoyed it. It is a shame that we judge so quickly on appearances. She seems like a lovely lady.

 

[Zathras]

Holy cow, thank you for posting that.

Thanks for the post REWahoo. Really enjoyed that one. Also, to donheff for reminding me about Paul Pott who went on to fame after Simon Cowell (?) took him on as a personal project, spent a ton of money to improve his personal appearance and made another ton of money through that effort. Paul Pott has never sold another cell phone. He doesn't have to any longer.

This is pretty cool too. Things get really freaky 4 1/2 minutes in:

I can't stand to watch them either, but I always enjoy watching the dollar signs pop up in Simon Cowell's eyes...

 

[bright eyed]
