Hi everyone... I am back to posting again after a FEW days. Sorry everyone, but my blog is turning into a zombie. So can anyone please tag or at least comment on my dying blog?





Ok. Back to posting. Have anyone ever watched Britains' Got Talent on TV? If you have, you must have heard Susan Boyle singing on the stage. She is just a farmer but her voice surrpised everyone downstage, even the judges, including Simon Cowell, a very cocky judge...





Susan Boyle (born 15 June 1961) is a Scottish amateur singer and former community worker who came to public attention on 11 April 2009 when she appeared as a contestant on the third season of Britain's Got Talent . Boyle leapt to almost immediate global fame when she sang "I Dreamed a Dream" from Les Misérables in the competition's first round.
Before she sang, both the audience and the judges appeared to express skepticism based on her ungroomed appearance and awkwardness. In contrast, her vocal performance was so outstanding that she has been dubbed "The Woman Who Shut Up Simon Cowell". She received a standing ovation from the live audience, attracting yes-votes from Cowell and Amanda Holden, and the "biggest yes I have ever given anybody" from Piers Morgan. The audition was recorded in January 2009 at the Clyde Auditorium in Glasgow, Scotland.
The juxtaposition of her powerful voice with the audience's first impression of her triggered global interest. Articles about her appeared in newspapers all over the world, while online videos of her performance totalled over 50 million views within a week. Cowell is reported to be setting up a contract with Boyle with his Syco Music company label, a subsidiary of Sony Music.

Here's a video for you enjoy... That's right, gape at it . Be surprised!!!
