I completely agree

Without a doubt - original vid about 260 mil views. Good, authentic review - except he should replace "god" with "gosh" as some cannot listen, otherwise. .w

Always will be

I agree! Have you heard of Angelina Jordan?❤

The moon landings, the fall of the berlin wall, the end of WW2, the assassination of Kennedy. No it's definitely a woman singing in a talent show 🙄

I didn't know she tour, wish they waited to see if she win final

SHe didn't win BGT on purpose, Simon didnt want her stuck in a show contract, he wanted her to move forward on her terms, since she almost left the show a few times due to pressure etc.

Totaly agree she is fab. I bet you are as fab too xx

​@@mlee6050 she came 2nd but has done more than 1st place.

@@yvonnesimpson4584 yeah they often always do

Unfortunately that's less true than it should be.

She isn’t?

Often “ Hollywood beautiful “ is missing the “ talent”.

Hollywood Beautiful is plastic.

Not really. She's only one out of thousands of other unattractive people, 99% of whom were rejected by Hollywood

That's such a good point. I def couldn't do that! 👏👏👏

I laughed so hard at this reaction. Ah, sweet and genuine redemption!

I wish it taught us that but there is clip after clip of people being judged by their appearance on this show only to blow people away with their talent.

It's odd that there is the assumption that she will sound awful just because she doesn't have model looks of a sophisticated personality. 🤷

And I hope that really all here and back then have learned from it, but unfortunately there are others who will not do it at all. Some are restating such "learnings of live", unfortunately. I loved, how she smiled, seconds before she started, because she has known, she will "kill it". Enjoy your weekend.

Never ever judge a book by its cover. Yet society continues to do so over & over again & were all guilty of it in some way.

@@michaeldavis6550 Unfortunately the most are. I have learned this lesson in as I was 19 and a new working colleague came in. I really disliked her, also how she looked like. It was more the opposite, she looked like a supermodel and I thought she is one of them, who will also show ugly ducks their places, as many do. I was completely wrong, because she was one of the nicest persons I have ever met. Later on I did an evening school and we had someone in our class, who loved to dress up in Ghotic-look.(I hope it is called like this in English) I liked this guy, because he was the most helpful one, but many avoided him, only because of his looks. I really often do not get this weird society. That is, why I am rather with animals.

@@andreagruber5813 Animals bring me such joy & I've spent years rescuing & feeding & caring for strays & have even been in the paper for rescuing family's lost pets. It just struck a nerve when you mentioned animals. As for the topic on hand judgement by aperance is a hard thing to overcome it's almost at the forefront of our thoughts when we see people dress or act out of the total norm. It's often thoes people who we judge that end up teaching us just how wrong we were in our Thoughts. The fact is each & every one of us are born beautiful in every way as we were created by God & Thank GOD Himself For forgiving us for the way we act because judgement twords others we see but don't know is wrong & the lesson seams to always be taught when we take time to get to know a person before casting judgement & usually the person you quietly Judged turns out to be people we can all learn from. Thank God we can be forgiven because thoes who judge will be judged by God & That's a Judgment That has A eternal effect that I surly don't wanna face.

@@michaeldavis6550 Oh, that is nice do hear and about you believe, good do know, I was raised roman catholic, but found soon out how much of "another propaganda" is and now I am following "the old path", like the Druids had it and still some Native American do. When will people realise, that we all believe in the same things, only that there are humans who claim to be "something chosen" like the pope in Rom. For me the worst lier of all! Even the Church of Ireland do not see the pope as "their boss", or anything else. I am originally from Austria. I do not fear the end and it's "judgement", because when I learned enough, what I had to learn, I have nothing to fear, otherwise I only get "send back" (although I hope last one is not happening). Get rid of your fear and you will see, how many want people keep in fear, so that they can control them better. Look at nature and tell me, where you find animals who have fears in the wild? I pet, you will see none. I do not speak of pets and of them who had terrible owners, because they are domesticated. I mean the wild. A crow will always attack a buzzard when it comes to near to its nest. At least in the area where I live, where nature can be nature. And it needs only one crow, to show the buzzard its "red line" and the buzzard understands it and sails into another direction! Go and have a look and you will see, all the "church stuff" is only "another propaganda". Enjoy your weekend. ❤️

She is authentic because she is autistic and they can't have pretend

I did subscribe till Shahin kept pausing, then I unsubscribed. If the clip is over 15 minutes, then pause once. OTHERWISE STOP PAUSING EVERY FEW SECONDS. IT'S ANNOYING!!!

@@jules.8443 wtf lol?!! Your comment isn't actually a reply to the OP, and also, you want to watch people REACT to things but without them actually, y'know, reacting?!

I love Susan - I miss her. Her version of Wild horses BLEW ME AWAY.

@@jules.8443 Do you not realize what a reaction video is?? Your comment is ridiculous!!

The only version I'll listen to. Makes me tear up every time, it's so haunting.

I bought her 1st album and was disappointed how they altered her voice to enhance it, I prefer the TV's version of this song, sounded cleaner

You're right, it's lovely... 🤍

Also one of my favourites.

Thank you, I haven't heard that so will go and look for it now.

She’s beautiful. I watched this when it was live. Shook us all. She’s a unique bubbly loving woman

Oh chelle, You must believe in Santa claus, If your that gullible, Of course he's heard of susan Boyle, He's got a u tube channel he's doing this for entertainment, And no Santa claus is not real .

@@lindapestridge3073 do you really have to be rude? I mean taking time out of your day (which must be lacking in things to do) to be rude and sarcastic to a total stranger. Really is quite sad.

This reaction video is absolutely ridiculous. The guy doing the reactions is hamming it up to the maximum. Here’s a suggestion for your next reaction video how about doing one on Elvis has died or JFK was shot. Hope these events don’t come as a shock for you

I'm so glad she got her chance and has been able to share her talent with others. She has a beautiful voice.

When I first saw her audition a long time ago I thought at the beginning of the video everyone was giggling because she had a cool accent that was cute, or because most people come on the show when they are younger, and then because she did the hip thing. 😔 I felt bad when I realized more of the context of why they were laughing (and I realized also the accent thing doesn't make sense given it's from BGT), but her confidence in the face of it knowing why there were giggles is impressive. 😃 I would love to have even 10% of that kind of confidence lol.

@@robincharles7057 💖 I love your comment! And you're right, this woman's confidence was/is impressive. But you, too, can have it! I wrote my original long comment, because I speak from experience when it comes to being bullied. I was always different, always the outcast. I'm from Germany, but as a child I lived in Africa. There I got bullied because I was from a different country. Then we moved back, and in Germany I got bullied because I'd lived in Africa. Then I came into puberty and wasn't so lucky with my skin, and got made fun of because of that. Then I started having my very own, unique, kinda crazy hippie-gypsy-boho clothing style, and got bullied and shunned because of that. Instead of dressing more normal in order to get more accepted by my school mates, I dressed up even more and then went into the school band as a lead singer. I can't even hold a tune in a bucket! I just did it, to make a point of not "backing down" just because other people had different tastes in something so meaningless as clothes or how you puberty skin looked. Now I'm 43. I have emerald green hair, 17 tattoos, lots of scars on my arms from harming myself when I was younger, and I still dress in fancy stuff. I never get bullied anymore! Grandmas come up to me in grocery stores and tell me I look like a mermaid, and they'd dye their hair colorful, too, if they could just be young again. And I reply, they're not to old to do it NOW! Stangers on the tram tell me about my clothes how great it looks. People turn around and smile or flirt all the time, even though I surely don't look perfect (I still have some acne scaars on my skin from puberty, and my nose could be a raven's beak, lol). Since the pandemic began, I've isolated myself a lot, but before that, I did historic/medieval reenactment, and I loved to go dancing at goth and rock clubs. I wouldn't go onto a stange and try to sing anymore!! XD But, you know, confidence comes from owning your uniqueness! From embracing being different! Thank goodness we're not all on a big stage every day, where hundreds of people get to judge us. But that thing, that Susan did there - this acting as if she already owned the place... I think, that's the trick to emanating the (self-)confidence, which then makes people look at you in a positive light. Might not always work in school - kids are little assholes! But I swear, as an adult you can be what and however you want, beautifully and confidently, and most people who don't like your style will just ignore it, and the rest of them will lift you up for it. 💜

@@Allegory_of_Wolves 🥺 I am so sorry so many were mean to you, you sound like a really nice person. I was shy and depressed and kind of silent for awhile, but got along well with people in school. It was after school I had a bunch of stuff happen that kind of shattered me and my confidence. I am glad you are doing so much better and not getting bullied! 🤗 It's awesome that you can inspire others now too!

Well said.

Me too. I always cry.

if i ever meet her i'm going to chat her up , marry her and live like a king

@@Frank75288 wtf!?

She made herself a star

I'm sure she made Simon $40 million as well.

@@NoComment79 That she did.

Yes!!That is my favorite song by her … it blew me away!! Also her version of Mad World.

☝️Me to.💖👍😎😊🙂

So true!

She doesn’t have those looks people judge singers by in these modern times. Unfortunately, people laugh when they see something out of the ordinary. Happens to me too despite not looking that bad. It could also be the vibe from being autistic. I’m autistic as well, so people may sense this “weirdness”.

@@taoist32 At least she got a nice makeover. I think it was just difficult being 47 already. Most people that age have already been in the business awhile so we “forgive” them getting older. Unfortunately, Susan grew up thinking she was “slow.” She was actually quite intelligent, so I am not sure how people would assume that. It turns out she had Aspergers all along.

I still cry and I have seen this original video over 100 times

Still do. Beautiful xxxx

what an awesome comment! this is what everyone was thinking, but you managed to type the right words. good job!

@@juliemccrea5481 🥰

And that just made her more perfect than if she’d had a professional makeover.

I think the producers actually suggested she dress in a way to make herself look dowdy. They knew she had a voice, and she would be judged on her appearance.

She was not old fashiond. The mistake she made was wearing dark tights with a light dress and shoes. If she had a little bit make up and her hair blow dried to make it softer looking she would've looked so much better. I'm a hairdresser and I've spent my whole life getting people ready for every kind of event.. now that she has help in the styling depth she looks lovely. My daughter sees her regularly on public transport in Central Scotland. Good for her. She always comes over for a chat.

Yes she looked after both her parents till they died, she was from a one street village and was extremely "SHY" and didn't know the big bad world,and comes off as overt ❤🌟❤

Roni like you I have listened over the years this audition of hers and it never fails to make me well up a bit and I am over 70.

I still cry every time I watch this. Love her other albums . so glad I ever watched her.

@Murron B it was my understanding she lived in a Village, meaning an independent house located on a private parcel of property within a community. A contrast to living in a City, where a typical home occupies a unit of space within a large building. Many include common areas for residents to share. They're often referred to as; apartment, flat, condo or townhouse.

@@dnllmaurer1 with a population of 5,730, that's one big village!

She is a better singer than Elaine.

Elaine Paige had that privilege to sing with Susan? Good for her.

Have you seen the comedy one where their hair gets bigger and bigger. Singing. I know him so well. If not. Go watch it. Hilarious 🤣

I am too, and I did not laugh at Susan when she came onstage. I noticed right away.

I'm high functioning on the spectrum and never felt the need to laugh at her. In fact, I don't understand why anyone laughed at all. She was cheeky, but I don't understand anyone assuming what her talent was like based on her looks. It doesn't make any logical sense to me. One of those "I don't get it"

His apology needs to be for laughing at her.

Love her singing. Wild Horses xxxx

It teaches us what we have become doesn’t it. It’s humbling

I thought that she didn’t win, but had a breakdown after the strain of the competition. However she was supported to rise again and began he successful journey after that. So it hasn’t been a smooth journey all the way. I’m a fan.

She came in second.

Diversity won and Susan came second. She did have a breakdown after but that was due to the papers being nasty and not leaving her alone. I read her autobiography.

@@CoffeeBeam0510 I understand her having a breakdown. She had lived a sheltered life and I think that most of us would be overwhelmed with the enormity of what was happening to her. I’m a big fan of hers and wish her the very best for her. PS she did get to sing with Elaine Page. Don’t know if I spelled that name right.

@@juliamartin4141 I honestly thought she was better than Elaine Paige.

She has indeed more than equaled the talent of Ms Elaine her singing together the dream indeed realized!

Paul Botts was good too.

Thank you for watching the video my friend🙏🏻❤

@@shahinreacts Jonathan Antoine’s audition with Charlotte is beyond amazing also.

What a fantastic way to describe someone.

And the world

I believe the people in her village were aware of her singing talent. Think she sang in church and in public locally.

Thank you so much for always being so kind with me, love you much Marco ! 💜😍😊

@@shahinreacts Im a nice and kind person....but not too everyone. Only too other nice people ❤

Then I consider myself a lucky guy, wish you the very best my friend. 🙏🏻😊🌹

@@shahinreacts you must do that bro! Thanks amigooooo ❤🥰

@@shahinreacts how are you amigo? You're so quiet the last days so I miss you 😜🥰❤

Actually, I like her voice better than Elaine Page's 😁👍

@@judylloyd7901 Me too!! xx

@@judylloyd7901 Me too. Susan's voice has more depth and a better range.

Must have been amazing! I was in UK visiting a friend and we watched this on TV.

Hello Debra how are you doing today
