I have watched this video of Susan Boyle from Britian's Got Talent over and over again.
Watch it..., and tell me... did you judge her??

I actually didn't :) ... I could almost feel it was going to be something (to quote Simon) extraordinary ... mind you, watching when fighting off weird flu like symptoms and (TMI warning!) due your period is possibly not the best time to watch something like this and retain any sort of objectivity ... but I don't care ... I almost cry just thinking of it, let alone watching it again! And just think how much it opens up a chance for all those other 'interesting' looking and sounding people who may not have been given a chance or who were too scared to take a chance - AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!
Turns out that my wife knows her ...
Wow! Chas, that's cool. Was she as surprised as the rest of us to hear her sing so beautifully?
Goosebumple and lump-in-throat stuff! Good on her :)
It would be more accurate to say that my wife knew her. Some time ago, Susan Boyle studied where my wife works. And yes, she (my wife) was surprised ...
I'm wondering if Susan, at some point, has had some proper singing tuition. Which doesn't take away from her achievement. Just that she has done some hard work to make the most of her natural talent ...
