More on Susie

Susan Boyle's second performance on 'Britain's got Talent' was more stressful for her than the first. As Simon Cowell said, it was the biggest night of her life. She had to sing even better than before, to top herself, to win the semi-finals and move on to the finals.
He said, "Get yourself together, Sweetheart, for the big one. Choose the right song and shut the door to all distractions."
Susan is getting worldwide media attention. This makes it difficult for her to keep her focus and concentrate on her performance.

As you will see on the video, Susan is a little nervous and the first note of her song is a little pitchy and quavery. But,then she finds her range and her confidence and soars through the rest of her performance. The audience voted her performance best of the night.

    Susan may have been nervous at first...she pulled it together and came out smelling like a rose..what a great ane beautiful voice.
    Of course Cowell told her to get it together...Simon Cowell knows a money train when he see/smell one.
    Is that one of your drawing?
    I just love Susie

  3. Your attitude was the right one, and what you said to them was what they wanted and needed to hear.Good girl.You are a nice lady.

    I still don't understand why they kept it a secret all those years.

    I don't know...Sis says I am such a hot-head she didn't know how I would take it...I told her I am a grown woman now and have a good man to take care of me...I asked her do I have to call her mama.

  13. Poor old gilly. I feel so sorry for them when their mouths get sore.You can't really do too much for them, although some of the products they have to rub on gums can soothe a bit. My grandmother believed in rubbing a little whiskey or brandy on their gums. I tried it a few times. It helps, but they screw their little faces up at the taste.

  17. I drove to the drug store to get my perscription.As I walked in the door I noticed my wallet was not in my purse.I drove home to get it and came back to the pharmacy.When I got to the pick-up counter and they said they had forgotten to order my drug.The day was full of things like that so my patience got stretched a bit.

    If people would look at Susie with their hearts they will see how beautiful she is...some is saying how nervous she was..didn't do as well as before...hell she had a lot of pressure on her...they can always sit on their asses ..they should try it sometime...

  27. You HAVE to write the way you feel.All writers do.That's what it's all about.

    About ten years ago,I was so dumb about computers that I hardly touched ours. I went to computer school to learn all the basics.I never would have learned otherwise.There are still so many things I don't understand and can't do.I've asked Justin and Jeremy some things but they go too fast for me.I don't have a technical bone in my body.

    ReplyDelete
  28. So,my point is,go to computer school or get private lessons.It only takes a few weeks.

    ReplyDelete
  29. I also believe it was the stress that affected Susie's performance. The whole word was waiting for her to be brilliant and there was a lot riding on it.

    When she sang her first song ,nobody knew her and she had nothing to lose.

    I've talked online to other southern Americans and they seem to think that since the polar bears are up in my part of the world that it is our problem and we should fix it. I could never get them to understand the big picture.
