SUSAN BOYLE of BRITAIN'S GOT TALENT

CHECKOUT OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL FOR VIDEOS

Susan recorded here at heartbeatstudio in 1998, she recorded three tracks "Cry Me A River", "Killing Me Softly" & "Don't Cry For Me Argentina". We knew at the time she was going to be a huge success someday. These master recordings are not in the public domain, so we are unable to even give you a clip due to the enormous illegal downloading surrounding Susan. These recordings are now the sole property of Susan/Sony, so hopefully in the future they will be released.

We wish her very success in her future career !!!!!

The youtube/newspaper clips which are available are of a much lower quality. There is enormous press coverage regarding Susan, we would like to set the record straight, she recorded here first!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We have the masters!!!!!!!!

Britain’s Got Talent sensation Susan Boyle may not have made a living from her singing just yet – but that hasn’t stopped her making the most of her talents.

Susan is now a world-wide sensation – but her singing talents first appeared much closer to home.

Below are pictures of the CD produced for the Millenium which includes Susan's first studio recording "Cry Me A River" which was recorded at heartbeatstudio at the time we also recorded 2 other tracks over 2 sessions. These are the secret sessions that we have the masters for.

She told us: “I do sing at church – and I also do a bit of amateur dramatics. I sing everywhere I can, to anybody who will really listen. They would be better off with a budgie though, do you not think?”

“I even performed at the Edinburgh Festival once, on the fringe. I was in a production of Romeo and Juliet. Was I Juliet? I don’t know what I was supposed to be. The tights were an embarrassment. But it was a laugh-a-minute magical for kids”.

If Susan makes it far enough in this competition, however, her audience won’t be school kids – it’d be Her Majesty the Queen! And that would suit Susan just fine.

She said, “Whatever comes my way, I am ready. It would be lovely to sing for the Queen. There would be less of the carry on from me, and more of the singing”.

“She is a very regal lady, very nice, so I would be nice too, and just get up there and give it a bit of wellie.”

And Susan isn’t worried that the showbiz life would send her off the rails like so many stressed-out stars before her. She laughs, “It’s a challenge.  Life is a challenge sometimes but this is different. And I like to test myself”.

“If it all gets too much and they lock me up, I want a great big straight jacket with spots on it. A pink one…”

“…And a big zip on the back so I can escape!”

Can Susan make it to meet the Queen?

"It went down a bomb," says delighted Susan...

When Susan Boyle bounded onto the Glasgow stage there weren’t many in the three thousand-strong audience that gave her a chance of being any good.

When she informed the crowd that she wanted to be a singer like Elaine Paige the judges raised their collective eyebrows and the audience burst into uproar and laughter.

First impressions, as Amanda Holden later pointed out, can be wholly misleading, and when Susan finished her rendition of I Dreamed A Dream she looked into the audience to discover nobody was laughing at her anymore.

“When I opened my mouth and began to sing I won over my doubters. Being on that stage and being on the other end of that reception was absolutely fantastic. It went down a bomb".

Giggling and bashful, she remembered her standing ovation, saying: "As soon as everyone stood up I was thinking, there must be fivers underneath that seat. There must have been money somewhere – especially for the judges to do it. Piers Morgan as well"!

"I was pole-axed with joy when I came off.”

And recalling what the judges told her, Susan smiled again. "“The judges’ comments were wonderful; they made me feel like I can actually achieve something."

"Piers Morgan said he’d like to see a lot more of Susan Boyle. Amanda, she wasn’t very sure to begin with, but she changed her mind. She said all 'I can say is just 'wow''. Simon just laughed. He’s a good guy, him".

In fact, there are rumours that Simon and Susan have since chatted about the possibility of a much dreamed-of record deal.

Susan grinned, "The goal is to get out there, make a record, and hopefully make other people happy.”

But the ultimate wish for Susan is to be accepted by people as a performer.

“If that happens,” she smiles with a twinkle in her eye, “I’ll be one happy lady!”

Simon Cowell Interview for USA Fox News about Susan

Susan Boyle is quickly becoming a household name after her stellar performance on Britain’s Got Talent captured hearts around the world. But Simon Cowell was one of the first people to see Susan sing, as he’s a judge on the show. Last night after American Idol, Simon recalled the day Susan took the stage back in January when the show was shot. He told Fox News, “I remember we were up in Scotland. And we’d had a terrible day, I was bored, I was frustrated, and this little old lady comes up on stage, here we go again. He added, "I asked her how old she was, she said 47. She doesn’t look 47. And I thought this audition was going to last 3 seconds.” Then Simon said how surprised he was when she started to sing. He said, “I’ve never ever felt anything like it in my life. The whole place just turned….It’s one of the most incredible pieces of TV I’ve ever seen.”
Pretty impressive that little old Susan was able to warm Simon’s cold heart too! He’s not an easy one to impress!
