Susan taught the whole world a valuable lesson. The world apparently has forgotten it.
The memory is a funny thing.
Forgot everything in some years.
2007 Paul Potts to 2009 Susan Boyle.
Everyone was so surprices both times. 🙂
What lesson?
This song depicts her life's story. If you actually go back and read the lyrics as she sings it, you will hear why the passion is so real in her voice. Her back story is that she stayed home to take care of her mom instead of pursuing her dream. Everyone in her village knew who she was and her talent. They were not surprised when she made it to the finals. In the lyrics, the most profound phrase that so explains her is "my life has killed a dream I dreamed." She was later diagnosed with a form of autism but her village came together and helped her cope with all the stardom she was getting by keeping her in a routine, allowing her to remain in her family home, and not treating her as the star she is in order to help her thrive with her gift. She owns a mansion she can not live in, she moves around her home town as she has done for many years, and her childhood friend is her assistant who keeps her routines, schedules and does her hair and makeup daily. She has a therapist I believe that follows her on tours to help her cope with the stress of performing. She has done very well once diagnosed and treated.
You are so on point. That line haunts me when I hear her sing it.
My only critique of your summary is an interview she gave where she said before this performance no one in the village wanted to talk to her and the local children commonly threw rocks at her house for fun. Other than that you are spot on, she is a treasure and nowadays is fiercely protected by those who used to ignore her. Love this woman to death, what a talent!
Thank you for this, it was very kind of you to share
She has asbergers, as I do.
Nice "opinion". Please link proof.
Susan was the perfect illustration of why you can't judge a book by its cover!
But even so... A book will be judged by its cover. If it had not been for X factor, britain's got talent and these types of programs, she'd been one of those that had been passed by by record labels because she didn't look the part.
@@helenetrstrup4817 yes. Sad but true!
I could not see the video
@@helenetrstrup4817 And what a loss that would have been for the world. It is human nature to judge people by appearance, but that is a natural tendancy we have to constantly keep in check.
@@gwydion56 Truly, she would have been an unpolished gem, that would have been lost to the flow of time.
Judging is in our nature, we assume so many things just from looking at something, and we judge based on those assumptions. We simply can't help it. The only thing we can actively do, is choose how we react to the judgements we make and whether or not we take an active part in correcting or confirming said assumptions without coming across rude or patronizing.
It's like seeing an overweight stranger eating an ice cream. We can see they are overweight and assume a lot of things about their life. We make the judgement that the ice cream is probably not the best choice they could have made for a snack. This process is happening without our consent in a mere moment. But as we busy ourselves with all of the assumptions and judgements, we forget to consider, that they may not be at fault at all for their size. They could have had prior medical conditions or they could have been dieting and lost 30kg in the last few months, and it's the first ice cream they have that year, for all we know.
As for Susan here, at first glance she's a normal looking woman approaching her late 40s (in this video). Visually she is underwhelming and you write her off because you simply judge her "average", not to mention in the business I guess she would be considered old already. Of course there are artists out there who are older, but they are established and have a long track record (pun not necessarily intended). She is absolutely amazing for succeeding despite the obstacles life has put in front of her.
I’ve watched this like a hundred times and I still get chills and teary eyes. What a voice!
So do I !!!!
Just this
Yes
super heros are real people
Funny that...huh, now the world KNOWS this lady, Susan has a God given talent finally here!! Indeed we are all privileged to her her sing & follow her career! Just brilliant dear Susan you make Scotland proud!!
Don't feel bad: I am a 66-year-old man, I have seen that video maybe 100 times, and I am still tearing up watching you discover it. Susan Boyle did become an excellent professional singer, certainly in a rank with Elaine Paige and other great singers. Her story hits me hard, and this video inspires me every time I watch it.
Yes. This is my 'go to' video for the same reason taht you've described.
I always tear up every time I see this, too. Susan did find fame, although it was not very kind to her. I understand she is doing well now.
I'm a grown man but this lady can bring tears to my eyes everytime . They do never learn . You cannot judge a book by its cover ever
She knocked their socks off! I'm sobbing here, as it gets me every time. Bravo Susan.
Several times in my life I have been shamed by how jaded even I could be. You can't tell by the less than attractive outside, or the unsophisticated personality, what gift God has bestowed on that person. The most unlikely of us can be a wonderful singer or dancer or painter or poet or scientist. Seems God gives us some miraculous gifts in plain wrapping.
This song is from les miserable a very successful musical in London theatres and Lorraine paige stars in musicals in London theatres Susan in now worth £ 40 million
@@kathleenbarnes4224 Elaine Paige.
I am a grown man as well and when I see this performance I get tears in my eyes. Every. Single . Time. A lesson learned. Don't judge the book by its cover.
Susan’s life literally changed while she was on stage and she went from unknown to superstar in the course of those few minutes. She achieved fame and fortune far beyond her expectations within months of this performance. She became a multi-award winning singer and a multimillionaire and I hope she’s still riding the wave. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Her estimated net worth as of 2021 is 40 million and she has one of the best selling albums of the 21st century, she has become one with the wave!
She still lives in the small house she was brought up in, but has put in a new bathroom and kitchen.
She was on the the finale of America Got Talent. Sang beautifully of course. Simon mentioned she had jusr recovered from a stroke.
In 2010 she received 3 entries into the Guinness book of world records... "Her debut album I Dreamed A Dream was the fastest selling album by a UK female and also had the most successful first week sale of a UK debut album. Boyle was also the oldest person to reach number one with a debut album." From the DailyMail UK.
It actually kicked MJ's Thriller of the top spot
“Stop discounting people because they don’t look like you”…. The single finest statement I have heard on RUclips EVER! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Very true... I do NOT want a world where everyone looks like Simon Cowell!
As I heard someone say, she lost the finals, but she won the world. She has become a HUGE and beloved international star. Even today, very few know who Elaine Page is, but everyone knows Susan Boyle.
She was robbed of the win, but she has met her goals. She even sang with Elaine Paige! Amazing story! Ty for the reaction.
I am a big man and that night when Susan started singing, I had tears coming down my face.
Elaine Paige is a British musician who has starred on the west end and Broadway. She has topped the charts won every award possible and was the first person to play Eva Perron in the musical Evita. Her career has spanned over 50 years oh and she has also now dueted with Susan Boyle.
Susan is something of a superstar now who fills stadium and concert halls allover the world.
I didn't know a quarter of those things about Elaine Page, but I knew of her well enough to know that was still a freaking high bar for Susan to set for herself, even before seeing the audience roll their eyes.
I've watched the duet. Susan sang better.
Girl, if you tear up every day for something this good, there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. Keep those tears flowing
*Susan Boyle is basically the first person (who does not look anything like the normal stars we come to know) to break the mold on what talent is & opened the eyes of Simon Cowell years to come not judge contestants the same way ever. She goes on to success on both sides of the Atlantic even though she did NOT win BGT, because Simon Cowell went on to make it happen for her.*
Susan easily would have won that season but she had a minor breakdown, struggling with the pressure and sudden fame. Simon signed her to a contract and mentored her anyway. She went on to be more famous and successful than she dreamed. We never know for sure how people really are doing, but by all signs and accounts she’s adjusted well and happy.
Thats awesome! I didnt know he did that! Thank you for sharing that...😁❤
Simon, released her from her obligations when it became too much for her also. It was discovered that she actually was on the autism spectrum, which is why she seems "off" socially. Simon help her talent be fine tuned, she had complete natural talent, but no real professional training. Had she been a kid today, it would've been recognized much sooner, and she would've been successful from the start.
Yes Susan went on to be a top selling recording artist. It’s rumoured she still lived in her little house in Glasgow for a while and would even make tourists and fans a cup of tea and would chat to them.
You are correct that Simon did mentor her even though she did not win. Simon is brutally honest in his comments on the show but in the same breath, he also has compassion. He knew that with the right care, she could be and would be a super star! If you see his interviews about her, you can see in his face and hear in his voice the compassion he has, not just with her, but with many people.
@Jeff Thomas its not Glasgow. it's nearer Edinburgh, she bought a new house for a fair bit of money but returned to the house the family lived in because she felt all her memories were there, the new house is where she puts her awards.
Susan suffers severe anxiety attacks but is supported by a team of excellent people. Her aspergers once diagnosed, was helped with medication, the one-time victim of bullying that she endured most of her life is now a treasured member of her village
Throughout the show, they spruced up her hair and makeup and wardrobe, and she made it to the finals. In the following few years, she put out a couple of well received albums, and did very well. This audition was so wonderful and fun and beautifully sung, it is one for the record books.
I've never heard this before, this makes me happy to hear.
This was the most unexpected and uplifting BGT or AGT audition of all time. I still get goosebumps! FTR, I am a retired, professional music critic, with 45+years experience and this was incredible.
Nice to hear, she’s delightful.
The people making faces and mocking her in the audience and then...BAM! She blows them away. I get chills every time I watch this because her voice is beyond amazing. I just love her.
The fact that they were mocking her is actually quite disturbing. Think about it.
@@lauramau2530 It is. It's sadly part of our culture to take one look at someone and assume we know everything about them. And the entertainment industry is the worst, because everyone is supposed to fit this cookie-cutter mold. I mean, think of how many famous people are famous because of how they look and not because of any actual talent.
I believe that some of them actually received death threats.
As some of your other comments have mentioned, she had an awful childhood-early adulthood because she was very shy and 'different'. She gave up her young adult life to care for her mother. She sang in church. When she gathered up her courage to audition. Simon was expecting something horrific, but was so taken back by her talent and her story that he was actively instrumental in getting her career started after she did not win BGT. Her story restores your faith in humanity.
Although she's renovated a bit, I believe that she still lives in the same house, her family home.
Simon did more than sign her. He totally took her under his wing. To this day they are the best if friends and Susan can call him for anything. I heard her discussing this on a talk show.
When I saw this performance for the first time I got choked up... not something that happens too often... she is wonderful and her story is amazing! She gets her dream to perform with Elaine Page...and many other things. ♥
Hey Britt, Susan Boyle sure taught those judges a great life lesson!!! Absolutely amazing!!!
When my granddaughter came home from high school in 2009. She just went on and on about I needed to hear this Susan Boyle. Everyone in her theatre class was just going crazy about this woman's voice. When she sang that first note the tears just started flowing and it still gets me going every time I watch this.
Susan Boyle is a successful Scottish singer.
Boyle rose to fame after starring in the third series of ‘Britain’s Got Talent’. Her debut album ‘I Dreamed a Dream’ was released in 2009 and became the UK’s best-selling album of all time.
It also set a record for the biggest sales in its first week by a debut album. In her first year of fame, she made £6.8 million to release I Dreamed a Dream.
As of January 2023, Susan Boyle’s net worth is estimated to be roughly $40 Million.
Agree with what you said but it's nowhere near the best selling British album of all time. Doesn't get close to sales by Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin or The Beatles. Peace
It was the best selling album internationally in 2009 specifically, not of all time.
This is exactly why you don't judge a book by its cover! As of 2013, Boyle had sold over 19 million albums worldwide and received two Grammy Awards nominations. On 23 July 2014, she performed "Mull of Kintyre" at the Opening Ceremony of the 2014 Commonwealth Games in front of the Queen.
I'm so glad you provided yourself with a "tear towel" before this performance...you needed it, didn't you? We ALL did, and most do, every time. 😂❤
You HAVE to find the video of her singing a duet with her idol. She said she wanted to be LIKE her and ended up singing WITH her. Such a beautiful moment.
Susan has sold millions of records, and has given many sold-out concerts. As Simon once said, she defines the 'Got Talent' shows. One of the most successful contestants ever!
My favorite moment of this video is when she gives a quick little smile just before she starts singing. I read later that she was used to being snickered at back in her village before she would perform at karaoke in pubs, etc. Susan knew EXACTLY what was about to happen in that auditorium.
What you are hearing is God's gift to her for her sacrifice. She selflessly spent her life caring for family and you just witnessed God's Reward for her.
With respect, which of the roughly 300 or so Gods, that have been thought up, would that be?
@@alipanroosendaal9503 that would be the God of Abraham. And you had better watch what you say next because the God Of Abraham is Worshipped by Christians, Jews, Muslims, and the Baha'i faith so your next comment may be insulting to Billions around the World. It is called the "Abrahamic Religions" practiced World Wide by Billions.
@@Farmer_Dave It is not insulting to ask for proof for such an illogical claim. BTW - If you have to descend to the level of threat, then you only reveal your vulnerability. If your conviction is so solid then, firstly, why would you feel the desperate need to crowbar it into your original post (?) and secondly, why would my response agitate you?
@@alipanroosendaal9503 stop gaslighting it weakens you and shows you knew exactly what I meant. Your comment was nothing more than a veiled insult. And now like the Godless human being that you are you revert to "Gaslighting" and pretending to be some sort of "Victim" in a conversation you started. Well do you feel you have obtained your "Victim Status Points" for the day? I do not understand what your definition of threat is. Because warning you that your next comment might offend billions around the world. That is not the definition of a threat. Education, might be something you should look into, just saying.
@@Farmer_Dave I did not feel threatened and I am nobody's victim. That is your narrative, because it suits you. However, if you tell me to watch what I say, then you are patently attempting to intimidate and quell me. That is your prerogative but all it does is amuse me. Jesus (much like the other prophets) was supposedly all about love; Love to your friends and to your foes. If you actually adhered to his gospel you would show me love and concern, not rancour and defensive bitterness. You see, I reckon if one actually lived by his tenets, then you would not go far wrong. (naturally I don't believe he was who he claims he was, but then I don't believe in father christmas, either)
Meanwhile you are right in that I did not have to react to your initial post. Normally I don't, even if god is invoked. In this case, though, you had no actual point to make or insight to proffer. Instead you wantonly hijacked the topic as any old excuse to peddle a fantasy that you buy into. I am not here to tell you not to go with that fantasy. Whatever gets you through the night is fine by me, but forcing it down other people's throats is simultaneously crass, and kind of desperate. I was stimulated to respond. I stand by it.
She was an international superstar literally overnight from this performance
She has done a very good cover of "Wild Horses". Susan didn't win that show, but has gone on to have a succesful singing career.
It's beautiful
I love that song and was worried it would be spoilt, but she sang a great version.
This is one of the single most uplifting pieces of television ever.
It makes even the most cynical of eyes tear up.
And today Susan Boyle is loved the world over and is worth $40 million. Bravo to her! Fantastic reaction as always, Britt. Now you MUST watch Susan perform Wild Horses on America's Got Talent. It's really spectacular.
Legend says that Piers had to eat crow, Simon's heart grew three sizes that day, and Amanda's chair had to be squeegeed. It CERTAINLY changed the trajectory of the entire show. IF they had had a Golden Buzzer, she would have had it for sure... the debate is who would have given it to her first.... LOL
Thankfully Susan got to sing a couple of times with Elaine Paige!!! How F-N cool is that!!????!
Subbed for your AWESOME reaction. Very Thoughtful.
(...and I know, my comment may be a bit too much, and get deleted, But I stand by it none the less.)
Never judge a book by its cover! I love this song and she has a beautiful voice 😊❤
Susan Boyle not only has that youthful sound but she has such total control of pitch, it is down right perfect.
Her voice is just so beautiful! When women don't look like Beyonce they discount them! Like they aren't worth anything...sadly our society has been schooled that way for decades! Magazines, movies, music studios etc! Especially Hollywood!!!
For her to stay home & take care of her mother instead pursuing her dream. Here she is now finally getting to do so...is so heart warming & heart breaking!!! I hope all her dreams come true!!! She deserves it!!!
"Boyle's net worth is estimated to be at $40 million in 2022."
And so deserved❤
Internet estimates are wildly inaccurate
Good for her!
Most people will tear up listening to Susan Boyle,especially this moment and knowing her Backstory!Great reaction,Britt!😊
Many of us are sharing the tears with you! I remember watching this audition, and the first word out of her mouth opened the tear ducts then, and ever since. Knowing a little of her background story, where she's come from, the personal doubts and health trials she's dealt with, and how far she has come as a wildly successful vocal artist, makes her even more endearing to me and millions of others. GREAT REACTION! Please react to more Susan Boyle!
Simon did take her under his wing. She tested as having Asperger’s, which explains some social aspects. She got rich, bought a big house and then was more at home in the council flat she had shared with her mom. The interview was very interesting.
I have watched this so many times, not only to hear Susan sing, but to see the egg on the judges faces. Just goes to show you shouldn't judge a "book by its cover".
Hard to believe now, but the world was depressed and focused on the world financial crisis. Then Susan hit the media and the conversation changed. She got the world to focus on her story of hope. Love Susan, love her albums. Great reaction, thanks.
That to me, was the greatest factor in her success. She has a good voice, sure, but so do lots of people, but her inspiring story coming to light in a terrible time in the world was the attraction. She was the female "Rocky" and like Apollo 8 was known as "saving" the terrible year of 1968, she had a similar claim to fame. You don't often see the clip from BGT where Piers Morgan tells her how she saved the world or words to that effect. She's a great talent but there was a lot more to the story.
This song is from Les Miserables ( You should rent the movie). Susan went on to produce very successful albums. I own them all. One of the best success stories of all time. She really struggled with the instant fame. Even though she built a grander house, she chose to live in the same cottage she always lived in, with a few renovations. She's really a lovely person. She's even been on the cover of Vogue! You should also react to her Wild Horses.
Even better... See it on stage... Lol. The movie was good... But live on stage is a real treat.
Elaine Paige is the British equivalent of our Barbara Streisand. Elaine is the original singer / actress on the Broadway production CATS. I watched Susan the year it happened. When she mentioned Elaine Paige I researched her and bought 6 of her CD's. After BGT Elaine and Susan sang a duet.
She sang a stunning version of Wild Horses as a guest on AGT, well worth watching
Susan Boyle has sung her way into history by winning three Guinness World Records. The Britain's Got Talent star scooped the titles for fastest-selling album by a UK female and most successful first week debut UK album. SuBo, 49, was also named the oldest artist to reach No1 with a British or US debut. The Scottish artist has sold more than 20 million albums worldwide and has been twice nominated for a Grammy Award
This also showed that the judges; especially Pierce Morgan and Simon Cowell really stepped in and understood their responsibilities toward Susan.
Susan proved to everyone you should never judge anyone based off their looks. Incredible performance
Check out when she comes back for AGT’s The Champions season (same one Angelina appeared in doing Boehmian Rhapsody and Yellow Brick Road) where they get a bunch of Got Talent Winners from all around the world to compete. She comes back singing “Wild Horses” and it was so beautiful 😍
I think most of us teared up every time we see this video along with so many others from pure joy of the sound and sharing it with others.
I know I made everyone watch it, just to see their reactions.
You should read her book. Her life has been hard. And she has really struggled. I have watched this many times and it’s hard to look away. Knowing what you where about to experience I was glued to your reaction. This lady is a legend. ❤🇬🇧
All of these years later and this audition still has me in tears.
God, I love an underdog story!
There were a couple of lessons to learn from this:
1. Don't judge a person's potential based on their outward appearance
2. Continue to believe in yourself.
I think that Susan came across as fully confident in her talent, but (as Amanda said) not a single person in that audience took her seriously, until she started singing.
We miss out on amazing people, when we decide that we already know everything about them, before we have gotten to know them.
The words to this song bring tears to my eyes every time I hear it. Beautiful song, beautiful voice. Susan Boyle knocked it out of the park.
LOL I have seen this a million times and tear up every time. BTW, she went and began a pretty exceptional career. She actually sang with Elaine Page. Her dreams came true. She has or had a pretty rough time with publicity and the popularity but I do believe she is having a successful career at this point.
This performance of Susan Boyle got me through an extremely rough time years. My stress level was so high. I would watch this video 2-3 times and it would calm me down. Thankfully my life is calm now.
As of 2021, Boyle has sold 25 million records. Her debut album, I Dreamed A Dream (2009), is one of the best-selling albums of the 21st century, having sold over 10 million copies worldwide, and it was the best-selling album internationally in 2009.
Yes, she made it big time. Her dreams came true and she deserves it.
It is a tragic song. Anne Hathaway did an amazing performance In the 2012 movie "Les Miserables" Based on the novel by Victor Hugo. Susan did a beautiful job and always gives me chills and makes me tear up. Anne Hathaway made me bawl like a baby.
Indeed, Hathaway's performance is gut-wrenching.
She got the Oscar for that song alone cause I’m sorry this song needs to be perfectly inperfect
What an amazing singer Susan is. I was SO HAPPY to hear Amanda say 'it's a complete privilage to know you' - she is now a millionaire or multi-millionaire, just an incredible lovely lady. 💝💝💝💝
No, they are NOT saying they are having a hard time finding talent. They are saying they have the lights, the camera and the audience. Now all we need is the talent and they are going to see if there is some.
When the judges say they are looking for the next (insert name of famous singer) they now say "Susan Boyle." She is very special. She didn't win the competitions with that brand, but she probably has been more successful than most of the winners. She has had challenges, but she gets through them. Simon Cowell adores her and has helped her. I am always shocked when someone says they don't know who she is.
I totally agree. In fact, during the AGT champions contest earlier this year, Simon Cowell himself called a young singer (Tom Ball, I think) "Susan Boyle's grandson". 😁
Like the saying goes "you can never tell" what a pleasant surprise this was.
Susan Boyle saved the music industry that year with a top sellling album. She continues to live her dream to this day with a very successful music career. Great reaction...I cried right along with you.
She killed it! Susan sang this as great as I’ve ever heard it done. IMO, “Les Miserables” has the best musical score ever written. I try to see it every time it comes to town. The entire story is simply heartbreakingly beautiful. 😢. Please see it if you can.
If you're interested & curious, later in Susan's new career she actually sings with her idol Elaine Paige (one of England's greatest female singers). It's on RUclips -- it's stunning to see them together live in front of an audience. Talk about a dream coming true.
A few weeks later a cell phone salesman Paul Potts arrives in a wrinkled suit & tells them he wants to sing opera. Simon rolls his eyes again. Another moment of magic that was equally stunning. You must see this one too.
Your assessments are GREAT. I enjoy listening to you.
For a few years I have been watching reaction videos... and watching a lot of them.... I thought when I saw India reacts to Tom Jones and the Righteous Brothers that I saw the greatest authenticity and transparency... but this beautiful young lady here set the bar for me. She is PURE AUTHENTICITY!!!! SHE IS MY "GOTO" GIRL FOR MY DAILY NEED OF AUTHENTICITY. AND DONT GET ME STARTED ON HER BEAUTY!
In an interview, Simón said that the program was on the decline and would not continue next year until Susan appeared and revolutionized everything. Thank you Britt sdos Argentina.
This is one of the greatest her live version of the Rolling Stones, Wild Horses is incredible...that High C always kills me...And yes, she went on .. amazingly she didn't win the competition, but she did become a Worldwide Success though she had health issues due to being Bipolar...she lives comfortably, but beyond that I don't know. I know her first album went Platinum Right off...
I think she didnt expect to get through because of the way she looked,just wanted to prove she could sing.Never gets old this clip
Thank you for reacting to this video, over the years it’s probably brought more joy to more people than any other out there.
Please listen to her sing Wild Horses on AGT. She covers the song by Rolling Stones and knocks it out of the park!!
Anne Hathaway literally won an Oscar singing this song in Les Miserable’ Loraine Page is a famous singer & actor in the West End (England’s Broadway) it’s supposed to be a tour de force for a singer because it’s so hard & the range is so big.
This performance was on Britain's Got Talent. She made the show famous. No one expected her to have this talent based on her age and looks. She went on to make an album with Elane Page the lady she dreamed of singing with. Never judge a book by its cover.
To this day, Ms. Boyle's performance makes me weep for joy. :#)
every once in awhile a story like this comes along and captivates the world...LOVE IT
Tim McGraws "Don't take the girl" will play your heart strings. Try it sometime
I NEVER get sick of watching this❤
She succeeded and now she is known all over the world. Oh! she still lives where use to live in England. Sucess has not changed her.
I just became a fan of Britt for her wonderful comments, reaction and even her tears. God bless you for posting this!
The whole world was surprised and mesmerized by Susan when this was broadcast. You could FEEL millions of attitudes change.
She’s had tremendous success since, but she’s still remained humble living in her little house. I don’t think she coped too well with stardom. A lovely, down to earth, talented lady.
"Age is just a number"..."She sounds thirty years younger than her actual age" THAT was funny
In 2009 Susan Boyle sold more records worldwide than Beyonce, U2, MJ special album. In fact, she had the Worldwide #1
I've seen this dozens of times and I still cry every time !
Don't sweat the tearing. I do it all the time and I'm a 68 yr old man. You have a big heart and can feel the great reactions. It is a therapy for people like us.
I remember watching this when it was first presented, I wished her to prove everyone wrong and boy did she, still brings tears to my eyes now years and years later. Well done Susan. Never judge a book by its Cover.
Thank you for the fantastic reaction to Susan Boyle! She's incredible! This song is from the play "Les Miserables," based on the classic novel by Victor Hugo. And thank you for using the headphones as well! I'm sure you can tell the enhanced difference for the better. Plus, the audio quality of the video you're reacting to is SOOO much better now too! Thank you!
The Musical not a play.
@@manchestertart5614 thank you !
My dad is a great fan of Susan Boyle. Like Susan Boyle, he was born in West Lothian.
BTW Britt... I am amazed by how fast your channel is growing. When you get 100k a bottle of champagne is on me. 🙂
If you watch real close you can see Simon's eyes turn into dollar signs as soon as she starts singing.
Celtic Women - You Raise Me Up
Just for a treat, Susan sang Wild Horses (Rolling Stones) on AGT the champions. You should give it a listen and see the difference in her demeanor.
I still get teary when I watch this. Susan Boyle blew the format apart by showing tlent is talent no matter the package. She did go on to have a respectable career
This blew me away back in the day. Peace, Love!!
You'll be happy to know she's an international superstar now. Check out the Paul Potts audition!
During that season, Elaine Paige showed up and sang a duet with Susan! You should react to Collabro on Britain's Got Talent and 4th Power on X Factor! 👱♀👱♀👗👗👠👠💓💓
She came second in the competition but the year after that audition she sold 25 million albums and became the world's biggest selling artist that year. She has appeared on America's Got Talent as a guest as well as at many events worldwide.
She’s my inspiration when I’ve given up hope. Im a singer/musician/composer/artist. A long time coming for her, she’s an exercise in determination. I’m grateful to her. She has many recordings, she’s done beautifully despite setbacks, and it’s still a thrill every time I hear this. I’m particularly interested in your perception of the youth in her voice. I hadn’t thought of it, but I have an experience from 40 years ago that compares: I went on a date to hear Ella Fitzgerald live at 75 years old. I closed my eyes and heard the same voice as the 22-year-old Ella from old kinescopes. We were so thrilled we went out of the theatre straight to the box office and bought tickets for the second show - $75 each, 40 years ago - and listened all over again. I’ll never forget it, just as I’ll never forget this audition. Listen to her cover of Wild Horses. It’s powerful. Thanks for being perceptive enough to know she’s special right off the bat, and not falling into the cynicism trap. You’re right. We all need to learn to take people as they are, as they come, and look for their gifts. Thanks for sharing.
Still remember watching this live and I couldn't believe it, I thought for sure she was going to be horrible, because it happened so many times before. People go on these talent shows and embarass themselves, so it was so shocking and unbelievable.
