    Wow, what a surprise! I too have been listening over and over again. She is just amazing and she doesn't blink when they say that she had been judged by her looks. What an amazing voice! I hope she gets all she has dreamed of!

    WOW - it's just short of 48 hours since I posted this. The hits on the You Tube site then were just over 400,000.

    Now it's over 3 million, and still rising!!

    As I write this, I'm listening once again to her glorious voice

    Wow - I'm sitting here in awe after listening to her - brought tears to my eyes. A beautiful voice and a beautiful song too! I hadn't listened earlier since my speakers aren't hooked back up yet, so I had to plug in the headphones to see what everyone was raving about. Just the looks on Simon's and the other's faces was worth my time. It's not too often that he is impressed.

    I have been back SO many times that part of that 3 million views was me not being able to stay away! I get the same chills everytime I go back and listen to her. I can not believe the world has been cheated out of this voice for so long.. Better late than never, I hope her dreams all come true now.

    I have my TV on the channel for the world news tonight...waiting. The WORLD is in love and I want to see how they treat this.

    I saw that too. Did you notice their description?? - "The Voice of An Angel"???
    I haven't seen that term used since Charlotte Church took the world by storm when she was only 14.
    I think it's wonderful that this woman is finally getting the recognition that she deserves. Seems like it's long overdue!

    I thought the same thing. I was amazed by her voice, and was glad she was getting the recognition. However, I can't really see why everyone was so against her, if in fact they were, and why anyone would find her so undesirable. I agree they certainly made it seem that way. I just didn't feel that way.

    Unfortunately, too many people judge a book by it's cover. In the entertainment world, more emphasis seems to be placed on looks, rather than talent.

    Also remember on these shows they show you want they want you to see. They probably just took clips of people making those facial expressions to make you think everyone was against her at first.

    I've watched several years of American Idol and I don't recall seeing Simon with such a huge, genuine smile on his face.

    Good for this woman! I am very proud of her!
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I think when someone is genuine we have the ability to see it immediately.

    She showed us who she is - and her talent - and now all are in love with her.

    I am happy she is getting all of the media attention and the whole world gets to know her.
