Looks can be deceiving

Just noticed that The Daily Record newspaper has a recording of Susan Boyle on a charity CD signing Cry me a River. They have posted it on youtube too.

Wonder if any have appeared on ebay yet?

Oh Karen, thanks for posting this. She just doesn't quit does she - what a fabulous rendition of this song! And it was recorded in 1999, I think.

I can just imagine the quality of a cd they could put together for her - her voice has no limitations.

Goodness, I can't even listen to it without getting teary eyed....what an uplifting story - and we sure can use some uplifting stories right now in our time.

I just like the fact that she can actually SING and not do tricks w/her voice as so many do today. Since Barbra Streisand I've not heard real singing. Society seems to be so fixated on T&A and singers shakin' their booties in our faces. What a breath of fresh air that she can sing and from the heart.

Exactly!!

Yesterday we watched Opening Day at the new Yankee Stadium. With all the talent available in NYC, one would think the National Anthem would have been a pleasure to hear. Not so much. They chose Kelly Clarkson who wobbled and wavered all over the place. All those stupid little things they do these days.

Yes, it sounds more like yodeling than singing to me. This gal is a pleasure to listen to. Reminds me of the old days when I'd put on an album and could actually sing along. Can't do that nowadays. (Boy, is my age showing.)
