Susan Boyle just blew my fucking mind!

[graywarrior]

Unbelievable! She sang Wild Horses and she made me cry.

[targetpractice]

1. Ugh... I have no TV... Will need to wait for it to show up online...

I'm glad she did well... The Wild Horses single is on a few websites, and it's a great cover.

There are tears in my eyes.

Thank you, Susan. Thank you.

[MilesColtrane]

17. Let me guess.

You also cry watching your Action News Five Day Forecast.

So much emotion....so little regard for waterfowl...

[graywarrior]

20. Qwak

I'm crying as I imagine spanking you til your cheeks are beet red.

[MilesColtrane]

21. Your moral turpitude, madame, is dithpicable.

[graywarrior]

27. I work hard at it.

Qwak.

[Captain Hilts]

18. As a choir director told me last April, "Boyle's a BEAST of a singer." High praise, indeed.

I guess he was right.

[rcrush]

19. That sounded dirty.

You're dirty.

[KT2000]

24. Who knew Wild Horses was

such a beautiful song.
That was just great.

[Petrushka]

25. Beautiful! My daughter and I cried, too.

BTW: "Wild Horses" will be on Ms. Boyle's debut CD album,
I Dreamed a Dream, due to be released on November 24th.

[kentauros]

26. I'll listen when she does a part in PDQ Bach's "The Abduction of Figaro"

otherwise, I'm not a follower :P

[jonnyblitz]

28. man you must be sick of hearing about the DUCK. DUers

sure know how to wear something they think is clever or funny COMPETELY the FUCK OUT.

[Petrushka]

29. "...know how to wear something...COMPLETELY...OUT." ? Give it a flying . . .

[Richardo]

30. May I refer you to my treatise on the subject?

[Bunny]

31. That was epic!!*

:thumbsup: :hi: Richardo! :fistbump: :loveya:



* is 'epic' worn out, too? :shrug:

[Richardo]

32. !!

Bunny! :hi: :pals: :fistbump: :loveya:

I haven't done a study on 'epic' but I'll wager 'epic fail' is much funnier now than it was a year ago.

[graywarrior]

43. Funny story...I posted in that thread but I don't remember any of it and I don't drink or drug..lol

[graywarrior]

42. Thank you for your understanding.

[Orrex]

33. Feh. She's no Harriet Wheeler

:evilgrin:

[MilesColtrane]

34. That's fer sure.

[Captain Hilts]

35. Yeah, but in a fistfight, I'm betting on Boyle. nt

[kentauros]

36. She's no Mrs. Miller, either

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fw07CDid0JM

[targetpractice]

37. That was classic...

Did she forget the words?

[ceile]

38. Beautiful!

[JoDog]

40. Hearing her sing it

was like hearing the song for the first time ever. She was absolutely majestic. Take that, Shakira!

[MissMillie]

41. you know, her version isn't just beautiful because of her voice

but because she truly makes you feel it.


THAT's talent.

[graywarrior]

44. Her voice is imperfect. Sometimes she goes off or her voice falters a bit.

I dig that about her

[MissMillie]

45. maybe that's why it sounds like it has so much feeling

I sang at a funeral recently, and let me tell you, not easy to sing when you're got the added issue of holding back the tears.

[graywarrior]

46. Yeah, I'll bet that is really difficult.

I didn't know you were a singer. How cool is that?!

[MissMillie]

51. I'm not really a singer

I sing karaoke from time to time, and I've sung at a few family weddings and funerals. When I was in high school, I won a trophy for "Most Valuable--Chorus" but I'm not going to tell you how many years ago THAT was. LOL

[lost-in-nj]

47. I cried

her voice is wonderful...

no friggen remakes or lip syncing
all live and thats what matters


Thanks for this thread and the links
I would have never heard this otherwise

lost

[Captain Hilts]

48. Folks on the It's Only Rock and Roll web really like it

[Jade Fox]

50. Wow....

Who would have guessed what a great song choice that would be for her?

She really does have a lovely voice, and I'm glad she didn't just become an internet flash in the pan.
