Susan Boyle I DREAMED A DREAM Reaction | Susan Boyle Britain's Got Talent | COMPLETELY SHOCKED

[@lynn2574]

Susan SHOULD have won. She is an amazing singer. And by all accounts, a lovely human being. Susan was referred to as ‘simple Susan’ in her village, and is on the autism spectrum (according to interviews I’ve read and watched). After all her success and fame, she still lives in the same home she lived in before (although she did have some lovely remodeling done), and I’ve read many accounts by people who have served her in restaurants or just crossed paths with her who say that she is a sweetest, most down to earth person possible. ❤️

[@jerrlestevens8791]

Travis, you must listen to more of Susan's singing.. This video was about 10 yrs ago.. She has flourished into a magnificent singer...I simply love her

[@stephaniebattison2334]

I'm going to have to disagree with you on the "should have won". Diversity were (still are) absolutely amazing & completely unlike anything the UK public had seen at the time. That's why I voted for them in the show. Not taking anything away from Susan & her talent though. She is to this day one of the best vocalists BGT's ever had. But as I said Diversity were just different from what we were used to.

[@Wyndigayle]

She blew everyone away with this audition. In her lead up interview she says that she'd never sang to anyone but her cat, but always dreamed of being a singer. Just goes to show, you don't know what will happen unless you take a leap of faith. I think there are millions of us who are very thankful she did. To know that she may have never shared her voice with us is sad. Unfortunately she had a very difficult time adjusting to all of the attention and had to reign things in. But she still got to experience her dream and has recorded some absolutely beautiful music.

In my opinion, Susan Boyle is a better singer than Elaine Page. I heard them singing together once, and Susan's voice is simply angelic.

[@the_Real_Grammy_of_6]

Susan is the PERFECT EXAMPLE of why nobody should “judge a book by its cover”. I believe nobody has the right to judge anyone anyway. People always have their own stories and we never know what it is.

The thing with Susan that actually impressed me the most wasn't how clean her sound was, it was the FACT she ROSE to the crowd and made it look easy. So many singers get drowned out when the crowd volume goes large. She exceeded them even in the wild throes of passionate response. Professional on another Level. That to me was her greatest strength for these shows. I cry every time I watch this audition. Your reaction was pretty good. Skepticism, Disbelief, Acceptance, Awe, then Surrender. LOL

When and if you watch any of the Got Talent show's it is literally called the Boyle effect, the shock of something completely unexpected they are looking for. She was the 1st female artist, in 2010, to have #1 albums simultaneously on the US and UK charts and have 3 successive albums DEBUT at #1 on the UK charts (2011) in less than 2 years. No other female artist has done that in the 65 years of the UK charts. That's how she rolled after this show LOL. "Wild Horses" is probably my fav of hers.

She is now worth 60,000 compared to Elaine Page at 40,000. Susan is the classical professional act of our time.

Susan was brought up believing she had learning difficulties, a few years after this programme she was diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome. She is now a very wealthy lady but continues to live an incredibly humble life. Please do check out Wild Horses.

Travis, she looked after her aging parents and sang in the local church choir. Only after her Mother died [last parent standing so to speak] did she do what she wanted. She had devoted all her life to caring for them after they cared for her because she is on the Autistic Spectrum. She has Gold and Platinum albums, still lives in the same [renovated] house in the Village, and is a lovely woman by all accounts. She is quite shy and the ridiculous stage act before singing was her trying to brave it out.
