When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

Jonathan Swift


I am not saying Susan is a genius, but it shows that for the whole of time there have been detractors and naysayers wanting to spoil someone's good fortune...

That'd be fine if that was YOUR opinion and not one fed to you.

But then again, you see through the hype.

The boos for Boyle were part of an anti-campaign that idiots have bought into. In the final analysis you have an ordinary woman, very likely with learning difficulties, thrust into an unprecedented limelight she has had no control over.

It's the 21st century version of the Christians being fed to the lions, and to see people revel in it is disgusting. It shows those idiots slagging the woman off as contemptible sheep.”


I totally agree and the thing is the people who do this dont give a shit actually as long as they are right.

disgusting

the reason for this country being so bad

and blindly following the pernicious influence of the media.

no. i must be a disgusting, britain-hating sheep to come to the conclusion that susan boyle's singing is not remarkable in any way at all.

Oh fffs - I despair at times. Let me spell this out - the audience booed when Piers simply dismissed the other contestants before two of them had even performed. They had not booed before then, they had not booed Susan while she performed or after she finished.

They booed Piers, not Susan. Why is that so hard to grasp?The headlines, the campaign that you refer to are irrelevant. You are simply bringing them into the argument to portray SB as being hard done to.

It is ironic that Piers referred to the boos on BGMT just now, saying he didn't know why. What a pillock.

Susan may well have had a bad week with the press but regardless of the result she will win with a recording contract.

Kudos for classing the place up with some Swift!

I have nothing against Susan but here's why I personally don't want her to win:

1) I don't actually think she is "that" great. She's good for an amateur, and good considering some of the dire "talent" she's up against, but by professional standards she doesn't cut the mustard. The audition performance was good, the semi final performance was average, tonight's performance was better than the semi final but not as good as the audition. I don't actually get any sense of emotion from her when she sings - she seems to just run ahead with the lines.

2) The competition has been quite predictable so far, most people including myself think Susan will win. If someone else won, it would vindicate the competition a bit in my eyes and provide a bit of surprise.

3) From what I've seen, I don't think she will be able to cope with a recording or stage career. I think it would be better if she didn't win, for her own sake.

You've just saw through the hype. Like millions of others.

My personal preference overall would be Julian to win, however, unlike the OP, I will not condemn anyone just because their opinion is not the same as mine.

I dont care if you dont agree with me but what I do care about is the hate and spitefulness prevelent in this country for people who doing well for themselves in some shape or form. At the beginning the poor woman was being praised and saluted everywhere, and a few weeks later we get nasty snidey comments about how she cannot sing and her temperament and tantrums. Poor woman is not the sharpest pencil in the box but she deserves a chance in life and she has a gift that may enable her to do just that. I hope she does go to America, at least out there for all their sins they dont take a nasty turn towards someone who is moving forward and upward in their life.”


Well said you!

They were all good in their own way for me it's Diversity or Stavros.

Susan was good, but the hype has taken away her shine, I blame Oprah
