I found this record on YouTube and listened to Susan Boyle's version of CRY ME A RIVER. This was 10 years ago and, in my opinion, Susan Boyle's version was FAR superior to that of Julie London, who made the song famous, I believe, or at least had a hit record of it. I am just SO pleased and THRILLED that somebody like Susan--an average person from a little village in nowhere--could come out at her age and be such a star. I hope her fame lasts much longer than 15 minutes--I hope it lasts a lifetime.

But the Daily Record in Glasgow has found an astounding amateur CD jazz-blues track of Boyle singing for charity back in 1999. You can read the story and listen to the entire song track -- by going directly to the Daily Record site -- or by visiting a web-hosted version of mine which includes the song's lyrics -- (the tune takes about 10 seconds to download): http://tinyurl.com/cs8wuf Meanwhile -- maybe Greg Douglass or someone musically proficient can help me out. Boyle's voice is unique -- but it also sounds familiar, perhaps a blend of several torch singers layered into one -- and I can't pick them out. Any ideas? -d.
