Damn. Looks like she fell out of the ugly tree, hit every branch on the way down and bounced back up to get a couple more good blows in.

Originally posted by badmoonNo less exaggerated than saying she fell out of the ugly tree. She is very good indeed. I don't believe she's got formal singing training, so she is quite a talent. My point is her looks should not matter, just her talent. Lookers are a dime a dozen. Singing is a much more rare talent.

>Why is there this obsession with looks? The only thing that counts is her talent. Everything else is meaningless.
>That's why orchestras hold auditions behind a screen, to remove any hint of that crap or of favouritism. The best player gets hired, no matter whether male or female, young or old, white or black or red or yellow or green. If the best player is a gorilla, then we hire the damn gorilla (but we will tell it to take a daily bath!).
>To judge Susan Boyle correctly and properly, you shouldn't see her at all, only hear her. It's the music that counts, not the fancy trappings of showmanship.
