Subject: RE: A Most Heartwarming Performance-Susan Boyle
From another article with more details:

"Last Saturday night the whole street turned out to wish her well after the programme ended. All the doors opened and everyone piled out shouting congratulations to her."

But family friend Elaine Clarke, 47, is worried the attention may be too much for Susan, who has lived in the same village all her life, sheltered by loved ones.

"Susan is shy around people she doesn't know until she sings – and then she loves an audience. She is well known in the village for her beautiful voice and sings regularly at the pub. She sings all the time and when she has the windows open we can hear her all over the street.

"When we have barbecues in the summer she goes from garden to garden singing. She's safe here in this village but she needs to be properly managed with all this success. I hope she's looked after."
