Thread Name: What should Susan Boyle sing next?
Subject: RE: What should Susan Boyle sing next?
Those low notes aren't easy to hit, and in the versions I compared it to I didn't hear any of the singers lean on those notes. They pushed down to them as well as they could, glad, I suspect, to be done with them.

I started this thread to ask about what people thought she should sing next. Maybe Sinister and Diane would like to start their own nay-sayer thread somewhere else and leave the rest of us to enjoy our speculation.

Yeah, I know, dream on. They get too much pleasure out of being negative, of delivering the thumb to the eye.

We've looked at musicals, but the Big Band songs are also a wealth of possibility. Some of the ones that Doris Day, Ella Fitzgerald, and others used to sing would work. Especially after hearing the tones she worked over in "Cry Me A River."
