Lost my boots in transit, babe,
smokin\' pile of leather.
Nailed a retread to my feet
and prayed for better weather...

Great version of a great song. But who is Susan Boyle?
a group of us, on peyote, had little to share with a group on marijuana

the marijuana smokers were discussing questions of the utmost profundity and we were sticking our fingers in our navels & giggling

She is just a regular person from Scotland who won a talent contest in the UK recently.

She is a wonderful singer, compared to American Idol. America's got talent?? The Brits got us hands down.

She hasn't won yet, shes just into the competition now.

She has a small problem, looks like scary and when she came out to sing, everyone was giggling and laughing at her and being rude to her and making fun of her, that is, until she got into her song.

Simon Cowell gave her enough kudos for ten awards.

A point the media is bringing up is that there are hundreds of talented singers who look scary and do not fit the teen idol glamor route in appearance and bnever get a chance to really show how good they can sing or even act because they are not perfect beauties.

She tends to look like someone who is mentally challenged sop it was a surprise when her voice turned out to sound like an angel.

Once again showing that looks aren't always everything.

Gotta admit, she reminded me of Elaine Salonga, the 15-year-old Philippino girl who went on to become Miss Saigon on Broadway/

Elaine Salonga also did the King and I with Julie Andrews, Roger Moore, Ben Kingsley and I forget who else.
  Elaine had the voice of an angel.

And so does this Scottish girl of which this thread is about

So I guess its Susan's turn to cry me a river.
