找了些 希望有帮助There's a story in each of us.We're the sum of every experience we've had throughout our years,especially the lives of others who've touched ours.
Susan's story begins in a small village in Scotland - Blackburn,West Lothian.Her parents,Patrick and Bridget,had immigrated from County Donegal,Ireland,to Scotland.The youngest of nine children in a devout Roman Catholic family,Susan was born on April 1,1961,when her Mother was forty-seven years old.
Her surviving siblings include sisters:Bridie and Mary and brothers:John,Joseph,James and Gerard (Gerry).Her sister Kathleen,who was closest in age to Susan,died of a fatal asthma attack eight years ago.Her sister Patricia died of crib death when she was just a few months old before Susan was born.
Susan comes from an immensely talented family.Her father was a singer,her mother an accomplished pianist and her siblings are all talented in music and the arts.Family gatherings are often a time for music.Although Susan had been singing since an early age,it was at a wedding when Susan sang at the age of ten that her talent was seriously recognized.Her mother placed her in the choir at her church when Susan was 12 years old.
Susan's childhood wasn't an easy one.Due to complications at birth,Susan experienced oxygen deprivation for a period of time,resulting in learning difficulties as she grew older.Susan struggled in school because of it.She was bullied and mocked by the other children and spent a great deal of time alone.As she grew up,Susan sought refuge in music,spending hours in her room listening to her favorite records and singing along with them.
After finishing school,Susan worked under a six-month contract as a trainee-cook in the kitchens of West Lothian College.In the following years,Susan invested her life helping others by doing volunteer work at church,helping the elderly.Susan attended the Edinburgh Acting School and participated in the Edinburgh Fringe.She took singing lessons from voice coach Fred O'Neil.Susan enjoyed visiting the theatre to listen to professional singers and took advantage of performing at every local opportunity she had.Early video clips of her singing show a young and lovely Susan and a dynamic voice even then.
Susan has lived in the same rented four-bedroom,two story council home all her life.Eventually,Susan's brothers and sisters left home,one at the time,leaving Susan alone with her parents.Over the past ten years,Susan has known her share of grief,losing her father and her sister Kathleen a short time apart...then losing her mother in 2007 at the age of 91.Since 2007,Susan has been living in the family home alone,except for her beloved ten year old calico cat,Pebbles.
Susan had spent those last few years caring for her mother,Bridget,who had been ill.Mother and daughter had been inseparable.They had watched the talent show,Britain's Got Talent,together; and believing strongly in her daughter's talent,Bridget had encouraged Susan to enter.
Susan's mother died in 2007.For a while,Susan didn't sing...she couldn't.Somewhere along the way,however,Susan knew there was something she must do for her mother.In August 2008,she mustered the courage and applied for the third series of Britain's Got Talent.There was an initial audition,and she was accepted.The rest,as they say,is "is history".
No doubt,you've seen the video clips of each performance,and you know that Susan came in second in BGT.In my opinion,that may actually have been a "blessing in disguise".Now,she has time to pursue much bigger and better things...such as pursuing the dream she had in the first place - being a professional singer!
Susan has participated in a glamourous photo shoot with Harper's Bazaar.There have been dozens of interviews,and Susan has met her share of "stars".She has traveled to America and been met by a thousand fans at the airport.Susan is now living her dream come true.Currently,Susan is living in a plush apartment in a wonderful section of London and concentrating on completing her first album ,I Dreamed A Dream,which is due out November 24th.Even months before its release date,the album has been at the top of the charts.
I'd like to believe that Bridget Boyle somehow knows that the world has fallen in love with Susan and now knows what Bridget knew all along,that her daughter has an incredible gift...

Susan Boyle
Susan Magdalane Boyle (born 1 April 1961)[1][5][6] is a Scottish singer who came to international public attention when she appeared as a contestant on reality TV programme Britain's Got Talent on 11 April 2009, singing "I Dreamed a Dream" from Les Misérables. Her first album was released in November 2009 and debuted as the number one best-selling CD on charts around the globe.
Global interest in Boyle was triggered by the contrast between her powerful voice and her plain appearance on stage. The juxtaposition of the audience's first impression of her with the standing ovation she received after her performance led to an international media and Internet response. Within nine days of the audition, videos of Boyle — from the show, various interviews, and her 1999 rendition of "Cry Me a River" — had been watched over 100 million times, an online record.[7] Despite the sustained media interest, she later finished in second place in the final of the show, behind dance troupe Diversity.
Boyle's first album, I Dreamed a Dream, was released on 23 November 2009, and has become Amazon's best-selling album in pre-sales.[8][9] Its first single is a cover of the Jagger/Richards song "Wild Horses." The album includes "You'll See," "I Dreamed a Dream," and "Cry Me a River."[9][10] According to Billboard, "The arrival of "I Dreamed a Dream" ... marks the best opening week for a female artist's debut album since SoundScan began tracking sales in 1991."[11]
Biography
Early life
Boyle was born in Blackburn, West Lothian, Scotland,[12] to Patrick Boyle, a miner, World War II veteran and singer at the Bishop's Blaize, and Bridget, a shorthand typist,[13] who were both immigrants from County Donegal, Ireland.[14] She was the youngest of four brothers and six sisters.[12]
Born when her mother was 47,[12][15][16] Boyle was briefly deprived of oxygen during the difficult birth and was later diagnosed as having learning difficulties.[17] Boyle says she was bullied as a child[12][18] and was nicknamed "Susie Simple" at school.[19]
After leaving school with few qualifications,[12] she was employed for the only time in her life as a trainee cook in the kitchen of West Lothian College for six months[19] and took part in government training programmes.[13] She visited the theatre to listen to professional singers[13] and performed at a number of local venues.[17]
Early singing
Boyle took singing lessons from voice coach Fred O'Neil.[12] She attended Edinburgh Acting School and took part in the Edinburgh Fringe.[17] Prior to Britain's Got Talent, her main experience had come from singing in church and karaoke at pubs in her village. She had also auditioned several times for My Kind of People.[20] She also has long participated in her parish church's pilgrimages to the Knock Shrine, County Mayo, Ireland, and has sung there at the Marian basilica.[21]
Her repertoire through the years has included songs such as "The Way We Were" and "I Don't Know How to Love Him." British tabloids claimed "exclusives" of video clips of some early performances.[22][23] In 1995 her audition for Michael Barrymore's My Kind of People[17] at the Olympia Shopping Centre in East Kilbride was filmed. The amateur video shows Barrymore was apparently more interested in mocking her.[24]
In 1999 she recorded a track for a charity CD to commemorate the Millennium[12][25] produced at a West Lothian school. Only 1,000 copies of the CD, Music for a Millennium Celebration, Sounds of West Lothian, were pressed.[26] An early review in the West Lothian Herald & Post said Boyle's rendition of "Cry Me a River" was "heartbreaking" and "had been on repeat in my CD player ever since I got this CD..."[27][28] The recording found its way onto the internet following her first televised appearance and the New York Post said it showed that Boyle was "not a one trick pony."[29] Hello! said the recording "cement[ed] her status" as a singing star.[30]
In 1999, Boyle used all her savings to pay for a professional demo tape, copies of which she later sent to record companies, radio talent competitions, local and national TV. The demo tape consisted of her versions of "Cry Me a River" and "Killing Me Softly with His Song", and was uploaded to the Internet after her audition.[31]
After Boyle won several local singing competitions, her mother urged her to enter Britain's Got Talent and take the risk of singing in front of an audience larger than her parish church. Former coach O'Neil said Boyle abandoned an audition for The X Factor because she believed people were being chosen for their looks, and that she almost abandoned her plan to enter Britain's Got Talent. O'Neil persuaded her to audition despite her believing "...she was too old and that it was a young person's game".[32] Boyle said that her mother's death motivated her to go on Britain's Got Talent and seek a musical career to pay tribute to her mother.[12] Her performance on the show was the first time she had sung in public since then.[33][34]
Personal life
Boyle still lives in the family home, a four-bedroom council house, with her 10-year-old cat, Pebbles.[12]
Her father died in the 1990s, and her siblings had left home. Boyle never married, and she cared for her ageing mother until she died in 2007 at the age of 91,[15] which meant that she never had any time for herself.[15] A neighbour reported that when Bridget Boyle died, her daughter "wouldn't come out for three or four days or answer the door or phone."[15]
Boyle remains active as a volunteer at Our Lady of Lourdes church in Blackburn, visiting elderly members of the congregation in their homes.[18]
