I'm not embarrassed to admit that the clip below kind of made me cry. I don't even care if it was staged (perhaps "Susan Boyle" is really just a character in the vein of Tracy Ullman or Chris Lilley in drag)... either way, there was nothing more poignant than the sound of 40+ years of bottled up dreams reverberating against her vocal chords.
Thank you Ms. Boyle, my callous heart needed some saccharine trigger to release the reservoir of tears.
