Subject: RE: A Most Heartwarming Performance-Susan Boyle
Good voice. I wish her every success. I didn't care much for the song from _Les Miserables_, but I thought version of "Cry Me a River" was very good. I usually hate when people say "interpret" instead of "sing", but in this case I think that's what she did, and very well, too.

The TV show, with all the eye-rolling and smirking followed by enthusiastic applause seemed to me to be as phony as a three dollar bill, or as bent as a three bob not, if you prefer. That's no reflection on Susan Boyle, though. I hope she grabs her chance and gets a part in a West End musical, if that's what she wants.
