Susan Boyle

Have you ever bent down to pick something up that looks really, really heavy and you brace yourself for the worst, but it turns out to be extremely light? That is the best euphemism I could come up with for hearing Susan Boyle sing. Music isn't about looks or personnas, but when you look like an Oompa Loompa, you better have one hell of a set of pipes on you. The first time I seen her walk on stage to audition for Britain's Got Talent, I scoffed,

"There's no way a 47 year old woman in a moo moo with that god-awful accent can sing."

That's what I was thinking in my brain. But like every single person in the audience and watching at home, I was fucking blown away by her voice. It was like God himself had sent an Angel down from Heaven to bring joy to the world through song. I still to this day cannot believe that something that breath-taking could come from her lips.
