Susan Boyle Performance Video on Britain’s Got Talent Semi Finals

I must admit that the first time I saw Susan Boyle I really enjoyed her story. I was a little disappointed when I found out some background information on Susan Boyle. However, the story of Susan Boyle is still really fantastic even if a bit doctored.
What is really disappointing to me is Susan Boyle’s semi final performance on Britain’s Got Talent. You can see it for yourself. Here’s Susan Boyle singing “Memory” 
from Lloyd Webber’s Cats
Simon Cowell was right about not wanting to be in Susan Boyle’s shoes. Susan did pick it up a little about half way through her performance, but the beginning of her performance was awful. If it was anyone but Susan, Piers and Simon would have both buzzed her off the stage. I think the problem is when the song goes high, Susan isn’t very good.
I’m not really upset with Susan. She is living the dream and many people have been inspired thanks to her. That’s a wonderful thing. I just can’t believe that Simon Cowell would give her a standing ovation after that performance. Maybe the standing ovation was for Susan’s media tour and not for her singing.
Now that I’ve sounded like a downer, I loved this episode of BGT. Almost every single act was incredibly entertaining to watch.

I haven’t watched all the acts, but Diversity was, as the judges said, FANTASTIC! They totally deserve to go through.
Rad,
I can’t argue with you there. They were unique and interesting. I was sad that the little girl got sent home though. She was cute and tried so hard.
John, you know very little about singing. It was obvious that Susan was extremely nervous. The notes she missed were they EASY ones. The most difficult phrasing and pitch of this piece was the one she nailed, perfectly and superbly. “Touch me….” This proves she has an amazing voice. If she can get past the media and comment trolls like you with no talent, she just might make it.
Oh Genna,
I love when people come on here and try to make it personal. My talent singing has nothing to do with whether Susan Boyle did a good job or not.
You seem like a smart person, so read what you just wrote. You just said that Susan Boyle missed the easy notes. So, you’re telling me that I should support someone who can’t do the easy parts? Managing your nerves is the key to being a great performer. Susan didn’t and screwed up.
Like I said above, I’m not mad at Susan for this. I’m upset that Simon and Piers gave her a standing ovation for something that wasn’t worth a standing ovation. Not to mention they didn’t even mention that she missed a number of notes. Any other singer, they would have been more than happy to point those things out.
I agree with you that in the middle Susan really did hit her stride and performed nicely. All of this said, I won’t be disappointed if she wins Britain’s Got Talent. She does have a great voice. However, I won’t be upset if she doesn’t win either since she didn’t sing her best.
I believe Susan Boyle Should win. She so talent and real and her own way. She have a Angel voice that you fallow in love with it. The first time that I saw her sing “I dreamed a dream” I have tears in my eyes, and sinse then I can’t get enough of her. I go to youtube all the time to see her sing. For me her voice and her simplicity is very relax and spiritual. I can’t wait her cd come out.
