she's awesome
she's an epic win.
she is awesome!!!
omg, she's real!
I just thought she was like a joke form SNL or a youtube thing!
\
but she's real! and she's got a great voice!
Why do we care if she's a virgin? It obviously does not affect her singing ability.
loves her!
Maybe it's just me…but I don't think she's THAT great. This is the first time I've heard her sing and I've been hearing so much hype that I'm kind of disappointed
Maybe I need to check out another clip. I dunno.
meh. not the best thing ever.
Oh no, I wish she would sing the whole song!
And I totally agree, this is what a voice of an angel sounds like.
she is GREAT!!!!!!!!!!
She is awesome. And she is going to be a tremendous success!
Oh enough of this old hag already. So she can sing, big fuckin deal. I wanna vomit inside my helmet every time I look at her. All she is is a fat cash cow for Simon Cowell. They're just repeating something that worked already with fat Paul Potts!
What a cool voice. ^^
She is famous because people under estimated her talent from her look before hear her sing,thats all.
Did you hear that Piers offered to go on a date with her and KISS her??
She is famous because people first under estimated her talent from her look,thats all.
Susan Boyle is AMAZING woman and an amazing singer! I ve really grown TIRED of all that plastic bimbos whose voices have been enhanced and computerized and their only "asset" is their LOOKS and make up and plastic surgery!
Susan Boyle is so REFRESHING!
I pleasure myself to her singing…
LG THINKS THAT SHE ROCKS!
*
*
LG LOVES THIS WOMAN!!!
*
*
LG WANTS TO SAY HELLO TO ALL HER PEEPS HERE!
*

LG IS GOING TO PARTY TONIGHT!!!
TERRIBLE, BLAND AND LAME. NO BETTER THAN AMERICAN IDOL CONTESTANTS OR XFACTOR LOSERS. NOW GO CHECK OUT CELINE'S LIVE PERFORMANCE OF THE SAME SONG. NO CONTEST HERE.
Re: LadiKati –
i so agree
its just hype because she has a decent voice and not so attractive look.
I feel like no one has a mind of their own?
Re: LadiKati –
Well, you have to at least give her credit for the impromptu acapella version of this song on live TV. The BGT clip, which you can find all over YouTube, was so much better. I do feel like she's getting way too much attention, though. Too much of it is going to make her lose her charm.
hum..amazing yeah…but…
wait…
virgin??
are u saying litteratly?
gr8!
EXTREMELY NATURALLY TALENTED (UNLIKE 99% OF TODAY'S 'STARS'), AND COOL AS H*LL.
SHE KICKED A GIANT AUDIENCE'S *SS LIKE I'VE NEVER SEEN.
GO, SUSAN!
Susan Boyle was 'touched' by God. She is simply amazing!!!
Re: Duckie –
YEA, INSTEAD YOU PREFER A 70+ YR OLD FRUMPY UGLY BAG LADY FATASS WHO CAN SING A FEW NOTES. I RATHER SEE BEYONCE DANCING AND LIP SYNCING OVER THAT TRAIN WRECK ANY DAY. NOW BOYLE CAN HAVE A CAREER DUBBING WALT DISNEY FILMS AND SOUNDTRACKS. WHERE SHE CAN BE HEARD BUT NOT SEEN. LOLOLOL!
I watch her song " i ve dreamed a dream" over and over on youtube - the LYRICS of the song so much fit her sad life up to now (she took care for her mother who not long ago died and was ridiculed from childhood on bacause during birth she was injured and is slightly disabled…)
I m not sure whether I may link it, but it s here :
youtube.com/watch?v=9lp0IWv8QZY&feature=related
I greatly admire Ms Boyle's voice and personality but as far as the song from Titanic goes, Céline Dion has nothing to worry about.
she's amazing!
Re: LadiKati –
1000% AGREE. AND IDIOTS WHO COMPARE HER TO ELLA, JUDY, JULIE, ETTA, ELAINE, PATTI, AND OTHER STARS IN THEIR HEY DAY KNOW NOTHING OF MUSICAL HISTORY AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS. ALL SHEEP PEOPLE I TELL YA!
You sing it sister! Princess Diary time! She'll look like Britney next time you see her!
LOVE HER! SHE IS AMAZING AND SO SWEET!!!!
and she now even has her own category! lol
I think it's disgusting the way everyone in the BGT audience laughed at her when she first went on stage, just because she was unattractive. It was meant to be a compliment when Simon Cowell and co. said they didn't expect her to have a good voice, but really it was a massive insult - basically saying that she was so ugly that there was no way in hell she could have any talent. Absolutely fucking disgusting, and so are all of you for hopping on the 'an ugly woman can actually sing!' bandwagon. You're all patronising assholes.
Re: xcalibur –
Yes, I indeed prefer a 70year old who looks her age and actually CAN SING to any of these crap "singers" hwose only asset is their plastic surgery look and NO VOICE at all!…
I don t know why Perez put this silly Titanic song on here….Listen to the song "I dreamed a dream" which she did on Britains got Talent on youtube - and THEN judge her voice!
anybody thats a virgin at 47 needs to be famous
47 year old virgin,
the poor woman
Re: britney_bitch – Yes, she has never been married, has never been on a date and has never been kissed. She spent many years taking care of her sick mother who died recently. And Susan Boyle lives alone with her cat Pebbles.
She is an enigma and a huge talent.
She's no more a virgin than your ass Perez!!hheheheheheheheh!!
She took my breath away when I've heard her sing the song from "Les Miserables" on that British talent show. I was simply blown away. I watch her on You Tube every day, and I always end up with tears in my eyes.
she's only "famous" because she's fug and yet can actually sing
I just dont understand it, this shallow superficiality of some of the U.S. commenters here (I guess most of you here are from the US)!
The entire world, from Peru to even China comments on Youtube how they are moved to tears by this woman s performance of "I dreamed a dream" and all YOU here have to spit on her here is about her non-surgery enhanced looks (she looks quite okay for an almost 50 year old!) anf that it s all just hype and ridicule her virginity! (she s never had a realtionship cause she took care of her ailing mother all her life and her mother died not long ago and wanted her to try participate in Britains got Talent…)
Re: Sensitivity – It's all over the internet. It's the truth! She said that she's never been on a date and she's never been kissed. She lives alone with her cat called Pebbles. She was taking care of her ailing mother for many years. She is from Scotland.
She is amazing.
Ha! I love her!!!
Re: metalxxx –
She s virgin cause after she was slightly (brain) damaged at birth she had never any friends and was ridiculed in school. After school she never could go out and have a relationship cause her mother was very ill and she - being poor - had to take care of her mother many years before she died. She fell into a deep depressions after her mother s death cause she had been her only "companioan" in her solitary life….
What MORONS some of the commenters here on Perez are to make fun of her FATE and SAD LIFE up to now! And it s NOT FAKE what she said about her past and she s NOT fishing for pity because of it……
wonderful. If you happen to get the UK newspapers and read Tanya Gold's column, she is absoloutely right. Us, as a nation, as a world, are evil ugly horrible beings because all of us were judging her before she opened her mouth. We don't deserve someone as amazing as that singing to us.
There's no doubt she's talented at all, but this whole thing is incredibly patronizing people only care because she's not the prettiest!! Answer me this
If she was a pretty or even plain looking woman would she be getting this attention?
I highly highly doubt it!!
Re: erickaenvy –
Totally agree
Ummmm…we all know thqat the "phenomenon" is all about an ugly woman that can sing….if whe was pretty, it would be no big deal….her voice is alright, but I've heard better. Then again, she is British, so I guess that would make her the best British singer, lol…..
i didn't think she was good? she sounds like my chorus teacher from 5th grade. I dont understand how you can make a big deal over a women that's 50 years old… can you compare her to celine dion or whitney houtson? its ridiculous. maybe if she was 90 years old i'd be impressed… but she's 50-who cares?
Love her!!!:D
Here s some of the lyrisc of the song she did on BGT:
But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hopes apart
As they turn your dreams to shame.
And still I dream he'll come to me
And we will live our lives together
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms
We cannot weather…
I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living
So different now from what it seems
Now life has killed
The dream I dreamed.
Piers Morgan has a conflict of interest if he asks Susan Boyle out for a dinner date. He must have a thing for virgins
and Susan can do better than Piers.
SUSAN BOYLE DOESN'T NEED YOUR APPROVAL OR YOUR APPLAUSE OR YOUR RESPECT (THOSE SHE HAS ALL 3 FROM ME.)
SHE HAS POWERFUL, RAW, PURE TALENT UNLIKE ANYONE READING OR WRITING ON THIS BOARD RIGHT NOW.
AND IF YOU THINK I'M A 'SHEEP,' YOU ARE WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYY OFF BASE.
DON'T HATE, JUST 'CAUSE SIMON L-O-V-E-S HER.
Let her be herself. She probably won't be a virgin for much longer.
is this a joke? i do not think shes good lol
I hate that song. I didn't watch the whole thing, so idk if it gets really unbelieveable, but its not like she was amazing or anything… there was no emotion, she was just sitting there….
Susan's voice is amazing, and her story is just inspiring. How old she is, how she looks or her life so far are not important anymore. Her talent is more important than anything…
paul potts is so much better
Re: nutcracker – well okaydoka then!!
she is awesome
She didn't sound too amazing to me…
Re: LadiKati – same here. Ive heard about it everywhere and im super disapointed. I thought it was gonna be like … an adam lambert, even though his style and looks are def not my cup of tea i cant deny the guy is freaking amazing.
shes awesome but celine sings it better
That Shahim on the show tonight is so much better than her!!!
She is good… and it's great to see her doing so well
A lovely story. However, she's is not amazing.. and wouldn't get through an audition for any westend/broadway show… even if she was an attractive 20 something. But, like i say… it's great that she's experiencing all of this and really does sound lovely x
I get chills listening to Susan sing. She is so talented!!!
How long has it been that we've been hearing computer-generated crap??? Finally, a real woman with a real singing voice!!! And I feel that her "looks" ad to the whole package. She doesn't look like a cardboard-cutout of Britney or Jessica. She looks like she could be your much-loved Aunt. The kind that bakes you cookies and sings you to sleep. The kind that makes you feel loved and secure.
And I feel that's what the world needs right now, a soothing Aunt to sing to us.
She'll eventually take over the world.
Re: Duckie – agree atw.
Usually when I start to hear new singers compared to Judy, Ella, Etta, etc. I get my back up. But this time it is so well deserved. The timber and power of this woman's voice is right up there with all of those amazing women. It doesn't happen often but it does happen. For those who don't hear it, I'm truly sorry, you have no idea what you're missing. For those who'd rather watch and listen to GaGa and company, that's your prerogative, have fun with that.
CAN SHE GET ANY BETTER?! GO SUSAN U R A STAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: GEM1204 – I think you're wrong about the broadway/westend audition. The westend is exactly where she is going to end up.
she makes my heart so happy. she's so genuine, i don't think she should change anything about her appearance, ever, she's perfect how she is.
Whoohoo! Go Susan Boyle, go! She's got competition though, but still, go Susan Boyle, go!
she didnt really try her best here. it was kinda blah. but the other songs have been great!
big fan!
wow some artists spend ages trying to 'crack america' and susan has done it overnight
Yeah Susan!!!
Awesome!
Wish we got to hear more of her singing that song.
Go Susan!!!!
Was it really necessary to mention she was a virgin?
She's ADORABLE!
And why do we all have such a shallow definition of "attractive" anyways?
…she's no Tina Chen
who?
Wonderful!
This is a true lady and you can kiss my ass, Janice's ass, and hers Ms. Perez.
She is soooo amazing! WHO on earth said she was a VIRGIN? I'll bet it wasn't her! Just because she lived with her mother doesn't mean she's a virgin! Maybe she's just a very smart woman!!!! hum……..
Susan's 1st KISS!!! WOOT WOOT ~ Maybe she'll let him to second base on their 2nd date!! After 47 years I'm sure she's ready for some ACTION!!!
i love her for many reasons… first, she actually has enormous talent, second, she is REAL. i am soooooo tired of watching plastic woman prance around stage. it seems they are all in competition of who can be the raunchier slut. Susan Boyle is a breath or fresh air!! i hope she makes millions! and lots of her own ballads to come!
one thing i've noticed about the scots is that they they'll put other people before themselves. the further north you go the lovelier the people.
Omg LOVE her…never too late to become a STAR
The reason why (apart from her fantastic voice!)she touches people world-wide,is that finally and for once JUSTICE has been served to all the“blemished”people, who don t get invited to job interviews just because they re thought to be too old,too fat,living in too bad an address,or have any other outer“flaws”which makes ignorant people turn them down instantly without as much as LISTENING to them BEFORE they judge!Susan is the JUSTICE done to all the ugly ducklings (and don t we ALL in some little aspect of ourselves feel like that?) who today normally don t stand a chance.
Susan Boyle is the hit in the eye to all those superficial ignorant prejudiced idiots who nowadays run companies, media firms and decisionmakers of any kind! And to all the superficial “normal” people who think the value of a person is determine by their money, looks, weight, hair-do, social status, housing, a.s.o.
So, if you re in a position to “determine” who gets invited for anything, eb it job or any other “application”, maybe try the uglier, outwardly less atrractive AS WELL, maybe they will be BETTER at the job than those “perfectly groomed” bluffing(!) but attractive young plastic bimbos!
Shaheen is SO much better
but she's still good.
She is great britain has really got great talent
she would never be in AI because of how she looks!! and I'm not being mean to her, I think we should judge people by talent (in this kind of situations) is a criticism towards AI and most/all of American "reality" competition shows
ok, she haves an amazing voice!…so?
if she is so famous it means the public is boring with the typical singers and thats why loves her…
Right now, in your countries anyone can be famous so easy!!! lol
she is amazing .. looking forward to hearing (and seeing) more from her .. but she is being set up for really mean spirited stuff .. can see it already.. well - she will still be doing what she loves, have more money then 100% of us and be happy.. so best of everything to you susan boyle..
I love her! She is so awesome!!!
She's not from Scotland. She said she's from Bath, which is very much in England.
The Octo-Mom probably has a hit out on Susan
"I wanna be the most talked about woman on the planet right now! No fair! I made my womb into a clown car and all she did was SING!!!"
