    What a talent!!!!!! What a beautiful voice!!!!!! I have watched this clip at least 20 times since yesterday and I will most likely watch it another 20 times. I am so awestruck by her voice. She is such a sweet down to earth person. It's beyond me why people have to make remarks about her appearance. That is only a cover. ..there is nothing wrong with the cover. The real jewel is underneath all that. She has been singing since she was 12 and kept her talent hidden from the world to enjoy until now. She is so deserving of all the praise she receives. I hope she gets a recording contract. I wish her the very best,,,she is so deserving. I am a great believer that there is a reason why everything happens. She was on the Britian's Got Talent show for a reason. We need to thank the person(s) who urged her to appear on the show. She has captured the world with her talent. Now I am going to watch the clip again.

    If anyone reading this is able to contact Simon Cowell, please suggest to him that Susan Boyle would be an amazing guest singer on American Idol.....anyway he can put that together? Bet he could.

    Everyone keeps saying that Susan Boyle is an example of "Don't judge a book by it's cover". I say, "What is wrong with her cover?". She wears a sweetness and joy that shines out of her like the star that she is. I think she is beautiful and so is her voice.

    First time I watched this Wednesday, last time I watched it – 5 mins ago, next time I'll watch it – right after this email.

    I am not sure if I am captivated because I am 47 or because my people are from Scotland. Maybe its a bit of both. My spirit has not been roused like this in a long time. Tears, goose bumps, I was all choked up. I still get choked up watching it. Watching this was much more effective than any anti depression med! Thank you Susan Boyle!
