World Wide Shame

I just do not seem to understand everybody’s obsession with Susan Boyle. Yes, she can sing ok. Yes, she’s got a strong and clear voice. I mean, hello, nowadays, who hasn’t? Seriously, if you sing in a church choir for over 30 years with no silly distractions like family or career - you’d be there. Anyone could be a fairly good singer, or a businessman, or a Gordon Ramsey, given this long.

Moreover, get yourself a solfeggio teacher, and in six months you’d nail all the Korean karaoke joints. In a year you’d sing in a local pub, and then the suburban sky is really a limit there. I just suspect that the whole success of Ms S Boyle is based on the contrast of how ugly she looks and how pleasantly she sings. Like hey, this crap’s got talent. Oh well, shame shame shame.

    Completely agree. When I saw Boyle for the first time I was really astonished with the discrepancy between appearance and her voice.

    This blog has some great perspectives, all I need is to start acting on them.
