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.
