The Susan Boyle Surprise

When Susan Boyle, a 47year old walked on the stage of Britain's Got Talent 2009 everyone expected it to be the producer's way of bringing comic relief to the whole line of auditions.
Predictably so. The rise of pop stars and stage events has made us associate amount of glamour to singing, and the image of Susan Boyle was quite the opposite of what we are used. Add the age and on top of that when she opened her mouth to speak it never betrayed what the voice was capable of.
To say everyone was shocked is to say the least. Her voice was endearing and moving and raised everyone to their feet.
Reminds me and everyone how important it is never to underestimate without giving them a chance. I loved her spirit and her belief in herself.
God bless her!
