Susan Boyle - Britain's Got Talent 2009
What a talent, what a voice, what a surprise, but most of all... what a lesson. Susan Boyle, your country salutes you!

So often, no matter how hard we try, we still "judge a book by it's cover", even though we know we shouldn't. Last night was one of those moments.
Let's face it, Britain's Got Talent is just an excuse to see the village idiots go on stage and make fools of themselves, all in the name of entertainment (or more to the point, ratings and profit). And it does make great TV! But now and again the show throws up a real gem. Paul Potts was discovered on there for example. Well last night Simon Cowell and the other two Stooges found another sparkler... Susan Boyle.
This little non-descript lady in a frumpy dress, costume jewellery, wild hair and unassuming manor, who had never been kissed or by admission been given any other chance in life, stepped onto the stage looking every inch like another doomed to failure hopeful. The stooges, live audience and us at home all expected her to make a fool of herself and become yet another vitim of Cowell's arrogance.
I am so happy that I didn't go and make a cup of tea at this point, for what followed was the most incredible TV moment...
I feel humbled, ashamed, embarressed and ultimately a lot less smug than I did before. A stark lesson has been learned.
I echo Amanda's sentiment, it was indeed an honour and privaledge to watch.
Susan Boyle, I wish you all the good luck in the world in the competion and will certainly be voting for you.
In this instance at least, Britain certainly does have talent.

With the P57 Hoodia Cactus Slimming Capsule of weight reduction products and services in the marketplace, it can become very confusing figuring out which type and make of products to choose when attempting to lose weight. Nevertheless, it helps a whole lot to note that every one of the fat reduction medicines available on the market today can easily be sorted into two different kinds thereby making the decision making process a little bit simpler. P57 Hoodia is usually either Pai You Ji or non-prescription dependent. Pai You Ji Plus Tea, also referred to as ethical drugs, are generally medications that can't be paid for without permission from an authorized doctor.
