I remember watching her audition on youtube a while back. Did so again just now and it has had over 76 million hits. If she records a song and places on mp3 file for sale off her website and only 10% of these people buy one she will be rich. Susan Boyle has one of the best voices I have ever heard.

Perhaps we have other lessons we can learn from Susan Boyle.

As per usual, when Susan Boyle walked out on stage her appearance = no talent. What delight to see someone with "no looks" but an amazing talent, rather amazing looks but completely talentless and shallow personality. As for depending upon others, my favourite is the old Japanese proverb "none of us is as smart as all of us."
