One about Susan Boyle
April 19, 2009I can’t deny that when I watched Susan Boyle’s video for the first time I also thought it wasn’t real, that is, she was kind of playing a role. But, for me, that isn’t the point. That’s not what matters. The whole message is what matters. And it has told us something – by “us”, meaning the world. Why is everybody talking about that? Have we all already been in the other side, seeing someone and not giving a damn to him or her? How many opportunities have we lost because of that? Opportunities of having new good friends, of being surprised, of being happy.
And are they arguing about marketing, about Susan Boyle’s past or boyfriends? I don’t wanna know Susan Boyle. I don’t wanna watch that show. I wanna be, from now on, more aware of what I may be missing in my everyday life, and also more aware that I should and can be confident when it comes to something I believe in.
Like an angel plucking the string of a harp, her song struck a heart chord that could be felt around the world. When Susan Boyle sang on the stage of Britain’s Got Talent, the world stood still. Young and old, successful or struggling, popular or outcast, happy or sad. We were all covered in the same blanket of hope, love, and joy. We all heard the same heart song. With one breath, our potential was unleashed, our perceptions were destroyed, and a new net of dreams were cast over us…

Appreciate her for her amazing voice and leave it at that. I don’t want to know about her personal life.
