At least when I was hanging out in gay bars in the mid-80s.<br /><br />I'm not sure it's the best version I've ever heard, but she sings with such passion and heart. Over-edited, perhaps, but it is one of those "human heart" stories that restores your faith in your fellow man, and makes me get all weepy. In a good way. <br /><br />I wanna party with Janey.The Expatressehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00127602680470789727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7373422984752547454.post-71438097369259880462010-05-16T13:18:17.756-04:002010-05-16T13:18:17.756-04:00Absolutely loved her performance!

Thought I was watching the Susan Boyle clip again - the two hosts made the exact same comments, audience rose to feet at the same point in the song, etc.<br /><br />My turn-off with AI is "stars are made." Never been much of a star person. For example, I found a Kinky Friedman compilation CD ("greatest hits" definitely doesn't apply to the Kinkster) a week ago and have played it three times a day since.Straight in Upstatenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7373422984752547454.post-82198563060472373032010-05-16T00:20:37.495-04:002010-05-16T00:20:37.495-04:00Oddyoddyo13,

I love the fact that she claims she...Rock on, lady. I love the fact that she claims she's been hiding her talent in the "wee clubs and pubs" of Glasgow. Yeah, she has a hootish quality about her, but not the emasculating wit that makes me edgy.<br /><br />One quibble, Upstate. Big American Idol fan here. I like that the premise is real. Some stars are made. Some leave in shame. Schlocky. But it happens live. Britain's Got Talent is so over edited, with commentary from the backstage hosts (in the middle of the number!) and a swelling score to let you know exactly how you should feel about each contestant. Meh.<br /><br />And yes, GG. My Edith Pilaf knowledge begins and ends with La Vie En Rose. Bring one of her CDs to work on Monday. I said one. Don't bring all your albums, box sets, and b-sides.Straight Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01854561008655010619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7373422984752547454.post-17358420486128365582010-05-15T22:48:23.848-04:002010-05-15T22:48:23.848-04:00SG gives us gigantic boobs, you give us a Glasgow ...SG gives us gigantic boobs, you give us a Glasgow granny singing depressing French ballads. God, I love this blog.<br /><br />What I love about people like Cutler and Susan Boyle is that they love to sing - sure, they went on the show, but they'd keep singing regardless of how it went. Sick of American Idol and people wanting to be millionaires - they don't want to sing, they want to be famous.Straight in Upstatenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7373422984752547454.post-4740797495445648542010-05-15T16:38:00.732-04:002010-05-15T16:38:00.732-04:00W-O-W.
