Britain's Got Talent 2009

What's your name darling? My name is Susan Boyle Ok. Susan, where are you from? I'm from Blackburn, West Lothian. Is it a big town? It is a sort of collection of...villages How old are you Susan? I am 47 and that's just one side of me Ok. What's your dream? I'm trying to be a professional singer. Why hasn't it worked out so far, Susan? I've never been given a chance before. I'm here hoping that it'll change. Ok...and... Who would you like to be as successful as? Elaine Paige What are you going to sing tonight? I'm going to sing "I Dreamed a Dream", from Les Misérables I dreamed a dream in time gone by When hope was high and life worth living I dreamed that love would never die I dreamed that God would be forgiving When I was young and unafraid And dreams were made and used and wasted There was no ransom to be paid No song unsung, no wine untasted But the tigers come at night With their voices soft as thunder As they tear your hopes apart As they turn your dreams to shame And still I dream he'll come to me That we will live our lives together But there are dreams that cannot be And there are storms we cannot weather I had a dream my life would be So different from this hell I'm living So different now from what it seemed Now life has killed the dream I dreamed. Hello...Hey....Come back here! Go back, there... Alright. Thank you very much Susan. Piers... Without a doubt that was the biggest surprise I have had in 3 years of this show When you stood there with that cheeky grin and said "I wanna be like Elaine Paige" Everyone was laughing at you No one is laughing now That was stunning. An incredible performance. Amazing. I'm really, I'm shocked. How about you two? Amanda... I'm so thrilled because I know that everybody was against you I honestly think that we were all being very cynical and that is the biggest wake-up call ever and I just want to say that it was a complete privilege listening to that I knew the mininute you walked out Oh Simon! on that stage that we were going to hear something extraordinary and I was right. Susan, you are a little tiger, aren't you? I don't know about that Well, you are. Ok, moment of truth. Pierce, yes or no? The biggest YES I've ever given anybody! Amanda? Yes, definately. Amanda, thank you! Susan Boyle. You can go back to your village with your head held high. It's 3 yeses.
