Susan Boyle is in her 40s. She lives alone, with her cat, and says she has never been kissed. As a child, she was apparently the target of bullies because of a disability.

And then she went on reality TV in Britain. People were surely expecting a punch line, but probably not this one.

To say that she has a voice and a half seriously understates the case.

*standing ovation*

And THREE CHEERS to her for having the balls to stand up, face down the panel and the audience, and hit the ball out of the park, out of its skin, and out of this world.

The TONE of her voice is really extraordinary.

And how lovely is it that you could tell she had no real expectation of getting through, that it was enough of a victory to have performed.

I hope she wins.
