    I liked her performance, but there were definitely issues with her voice on some of the notes she tried to hit and didn't/couldn't.......
    True. You could also say the same thing about Carrie Underwood's first audition/performance. Like you said, with training/coaching, the issues disappeared.

    Her Utube will hit 30 million today. If she sold that many cds I think we would have a winner. They don't have a metal album named yet for that many sales.

    True and with todays recording studios they can make a mouse with a bad cold sound good. The difference talent wise between Susan and most pop stars today is that during a live performance they absolutley suck and dont sound anything like they do on there CD's or music videos and Susan actually has talent.

    Well, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all :D

    Or a major Broadway star. No, we were right first time - Susan Boyle will be the answer in a pub quiz. And the question will be ‘what was the name of the funny-looking woman from Britain’s Got Talent who made everyone **** in their pants because she sang a terrible song in a mediocre way?’

    That’s right, everyone. Thanks to Britain’s Got Talent, Susan Boyle has won Demi Moore over and might appear on Oprah. Literally on Oprah. The In all of history - unless there’s ever been a show entitled Chris De Burgh Sings His Multiple Hits or Look At Adrian Chiles’ Handsome Face - there has never been a show as spectacularly misnamed as Britain’s Got Talent. Because, well, it hasn’t. We know this because we live here. Britain’s Got Drizzle? Yes. Britain’s Got A Misplaced Post-Colonial Sense Of Entitlement? Yes. Britain’s Got Herpes? In some cases, yes.

    I haven't seen any of the negative posts about Ms. Boyle. I read an online account of her on ABC's website, and a mention of her on FNC. BOTH had positive things to say, with no mention of her looks, so....
    I have NO doubt, that, there are a TON of narcissistic a-holes out there, but, that's what we've become due to pop culture.
    I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!
