The U.S has a similar feel good story, Donald Braswell came in 4th on AGT last year. On his first audition he came out in a crumpled business suit and the crowd was mocking him like they did Susan and America was worse, they started booing him, but instead of running off the stage, he kept singing and his voice is a God given gift that turned the crowd around to where they were giving him a standing ovation like they did Susan. Check out Your Raise Me Up on Youtube. Susan is awesome!

Susan Boyle is a courageous woman
A blessing from above,
She looks like an Angel
And is filled with Gods love.
She has the talent and the gift
To make her dreams come true,
And the voice of a Angel
She wants to share with you.
Susan is quite young and single
God has made her that way,
She lives alone with her cat, Pebbles
And treasures him everyday.
So when you hear Susan sing
With her voice reaching the skies,
Just say a little prayer for her
Till tears fills your eyes. ©

That was a great clip.
I LOVED when the guy at the end said that she walked on stage, did her thing, and just walked off.
She’s something else.♥

Susan is a nice person, with the sense of humour and gifted. She’s charming by her own way. We love her here in Russia. Be happy, Susan!

One of the nicer interviews I’ve seen, and I’m glad they ventured into her town a bit, also nice to see.

Did the reporter say Blackburn NEAR Scotland at the end of that clip? She’d flown several thousand miles across the ocean and yet didn’t seem to quite know which country she was in!

MTV for
Susan
Beyonce, Mariah, Whitney, Celine, Alicia, Jordin, Kelly C, Leona, Rihanna, and Elaine Paige (of course!) in 1 VOICE.
from Glasgow, the wonderful -and full of talents- country of SCOTLAND
The reign of sterile marketing Barbies is over. Susan Boyle showed the way back to soulful and genuine singing.
Voiceless bimbos and wanabe Britneys pick up your wit, pack your bikinis andgo home. Cancel your next consultation with your cosmetic surgeon and have a Real lunch.

By edrainbox on May 28, 2009
I cried even more when I read in the description that she went on the show to sing as a tribute to her mother. That is so sweet. She truly deserves all the adoration that she has gotten.
