Why does people feel it their right to insult others that they don't even know? Susan you the greatest, I wish your mother were alive to see you now.

Id do this fatty, first chance. The fact that she is a bt slow is a turn on.

I think Susan is an unique character with a God given talent, and if anyone has got nothing nice/decent to say about her - rather keep quiet.

I sat and cried when I heard her sing "I Dreamed a Dream" the first time (very moving)- have her CD beautiful voice. Wishing SB everything of the best she deserves it.

What an incredible voice Susan has. Incidently before coming to South Africa in 1974 I lived in the same street as Susan in Blackburn, although I never knew her. Wishing her all the best in her career.

Rushdi,this mens had the same thought about "best". The sub-heading has nothing to do with Ms SB.

Amazing , would like to see her in South Africa one day.

Im a scots las myself and i think that Susan Boyle is 1 amazing singer..she was judged by many until she opened her mouth to sing..Even i was shocked and my jaw just dropped to the floor..I think its awesome that she has been recognised and she is making something of herself and using her talent to her full potential!! GO SUSAN!

God also thinks she's great, and look how beautiful she is on the photo and behind the piano.

Susan Rocks and I don't give a toss what others think or say. Her CD is on my Christmas shopping list for sure. Her detractors are in the minority - check out her sales and let that do the talking.....GO SUSAN

I haven't heard her album yet but look fwd to doing so as I was very moved by her rendition of "I Dreamed a Dream". Pity there are so many nasty people in this world. If you don't like her, just don't listen to her or don't buy her CD...... Just accept that musical tastes differ vastly, as I'm sure Susan does :-)

We all have talents, and lucky enough for her Suzan's talent has been found, albeit late in her life, she will be able to make the best of it now, HAVE YOU FOUND YOUR TALENT?

it's not over till the fat lady sing

ZZZ ???? - Now that's sour grapes for you ... jealousy makes you nasty. A typical manifestation of the green-eyed monster. Such a pity. Identify yourself for the whole world to see and pick to pieces. Then we'll see who the real peasant is!!!!!!!!!!!
Rushdi 12/7/2009 12:32 PM
wow - susan boyle has only been around for 6 months and she can already list the best songs, albums, books and films she's created?!?!?! oh, wait - you meant "favourite" songs, albums, books and films. "best" is something completely different. learn english of hou jou ***, mense.
ZZZ 12/7/2009 11:32 AM
Over rated peasant......
