It's very good that these 2 (Shaheen Jafargholi

Stavros Flatley) are in the middle of the line up. They'll be harder for viewers to remember.
Posted by Fire Djinn on May 29, 2009
I think the only two acts that have an outside shot at beating Susan are Flawless or Diversity, the rest didn't seem to have it, I loved 2 Grand, but they weren't on their game during the semi's, and Hollie is feeling the pressure also, I don't think they'll have time for her to restart her act in the Finals. GO FOR IT Susan!!!

This lady is a world class singer. I am sick and tired of listening to the criticisms made against her in the past week. She has a voice and spirit that touches the soul that very few singers are able to do. Love you Susan :)

It was a great relief for me that Shaheen dit not won the popular votes, but the Greek Dancers did. I cannot see any other dangers to Susan Boyle in the final either. You go Miss Boyle! And don't forget to light a candle at 4pm UT till 10 pm UT tomorrow evening for Susan Boyle. I will put a video of mine tomorrow here Deo Volente.

Piers Morgan is a leach who,s used Susan to further his own career and he still condescendingly refers to her as a 'Little middle aged lady' even though he's nearly as old

Hi folks (especially all the fans in the States and elsewhere in the world)

I will vote as many times as I can for you all that i can manage (and i can afford lol!!.

We Scots always get right behind our 'own' and i know that everyone in Scotland will vote for her.

From my previous experience of watching what happens after these type of shows in the UK, I would imagine it will be no later than about July before Susan will have her first CD out, and i for one, cannot wait!.

As my usual posts say, thanks to everyone in the US and beyond for all the ongoing support. Someone close to Susan, has to, by now, informed her of this site, and hopefully she gets chances to log on and see all this support. I know that there are many people around the world that 'get' what Susan is all about, but it seems to be in the US more than anywhere. Maybe USA should be the intitials for something new now. Understanding Susan Absolutely maybe..........?

Cheers for now

Too darn bad BGT people couldn't leak out now what's she's going to sing particularly as she's at the head of the line-up, NOT like last time where she performed last and was under SO much pressure to do well. Considering Susan wasn't feeling all that well its a miracle she'd done VERY well, enough to be the public voting favorite.

Susan now will be at the top of the line-up two good and one bad consideration:

Good:
 • She'll be fresh and hopefully be at her best.
 • The competition will be under intense pressure to perform well.

Bad:
 • She'll be MOST anxious her performance swings the judges vote.

No matter WHAT happens Susan WILL have a professional singing career so long as us fans buy her CDs - and DVDs - and she doesn't "fold her cards" which I DON'T expect her to do.

"Rock On!" Susan, Victory is yours for the taking!

What a line-up it is! I am confident Susun will win if she makes no mistakes, like she did in her semi-final. I fancy Shaheen Whatshisname, and Aiden Davies to be in the last 3 standings as well. I will do my best and vote as many times as i can in the 10 mins of the lines being open. GO SUSAN!
Posted by DannyMac on May 29, 2009
One good thing about her going first. She won't have to sit there and think about it while others are on stage.

Posted by Wild Ol' Dan on May 29, 2009
Howdy Pards,

Tomorrow is the big event...there are different times tomorrow...so can someone who knows please translate the times to Eastern, Central, Mountain, and Pacific times as they did before?

The IvoryMist link has been working extremely well for me throughout the week. Maybe in your next blog Paul you could put another one of those "click here" things with some instructions about then clicking on Entertainment and then ITV1 etc?

It all comes down to tomorrow's show doesnt it? It's been a wild ride from that day we first met up with Susan until now. I would ask everyone to remember how she brought tears of joy and happiness to most of us who watched her first video so many times. Then how she came back like a true champion in the Semi-Finals to be the first to go through to the finals. There is no doubt in my mind that Susan deserves to win...

But, we cannot take it for granted that she will win. It is entirely up to the British public. Those of us in other parts of the world who love Susan with all our heart and soul can only pray...and hope for the best. We sure are countin' on all our friends and trail pards in Great Britain to vote for us if they can. This is the moment when Susan's dreams either will or will not come true...and it is in the hands of her loyal fans.

Now, we all know that Susan has a wonderful future even if she doesn't win...but, lets do everything within our power to help her get this victory. She brought us a great deal of joy and happiness and the way I figure it that debt is not paid back...not yet...not by a long shot.

Friends there are an awful lot of unpleasant people in the world...an awful lot of "spoilers" and "bullies". And I've got a feelin' they are gonna be out in force tomorrow. To me this all comes down to right vs wrong... good vs evil. If you don't believe me just go take a look at some of the "guest" comments on our own chat line.

So, pards, we need to stay on the trail. I hope our card and messages have been or soon will be delivered to Susan. I hope all of us do everything we can to show our love and support for her as this competition comes to an end.

A good many of us have been on this site long enough to know that Susan has brought us together to the point that we have indeed become sort of a world wide family. To me it's downright good to know that there are so many good people in the world. We need to keep standin' up for what's right...for the good things in life. Susan is in many ways a symbol of that. We are here because we love her. Because her talent and her smile lights up our world.

Let's stay on the trail pards. Send up some prayers tonight...and give thanks to the Good Lord for giving us the wonderful Lady Susan Boyle.

The ride might get a little rough ahead...but, together, let's help Susan reach that unreachable star! The trail to victory is straight ahead.

Adios for now. Talk to ya on down the trail.

Wild Ol' Dan
Posted by AmazinglyCritical on May 29, 2009
I just googled "Britains Got Talent" and got 5.4 million hits. I googled "Susan Boyle" and got 14.2 million hits, then I googled "Susan BOyle" and got 19.5 million hits. There is NOWAY the people at BGT are going to let her sing first, she will probably go last, being she's the HEADLINER.... She could pass a little gas during her performance and I'd still vote for her just from her audition alone. Of all the acts, that was by far the best one and it was during the first audition. They said many in the audiance that first night, wished she would've almost stopped because as soon as she started to sing, everyones hair stood straight up and when she got towards the end, the goose bumps and hair on everyone were going like static electricity. That's how good her voice is when she rares back. Why we all can't get enough of her. And why she's going to win this. Please give her 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 votes from me.

@Wild Ol' Dan: If EST has summertime or daylight savings time then EST now is UT minus 5 hours. If EST has no summertime it's UT minus 4. So if EST has summertime then in the EST zone they should light the candles from noon till 6pm on Saturday. If they don't have summertime then it's from 11 am till 5 pm. Californians with summertime light their candles saturday from 9 am till 3 pm on Saturday. Californians without summertime from 8 am till 2 pm on Saturday. I hope this works for the USA.
Posted by Suzannabrain on May 29, 2009
Someone over the pond please put in a vote for me, too, out here in California. Susan and her voice have given my life new strength and inspiration, and I can hardly stand waiting for her first CD to come out. Did someone say an estimated timeline for her first recordings? I can't find the post now. Anyway, tomorrow is not soon enough. I am so excited to hear all the ways she will use her incredibly fluid, dimensional voice, and all the songs she will bring to new heights. She said she wanted to be like Elaine Page, when she was asked. I've researched Elaine's recordings of the Les Mis song, and I have to say, Elaine should be wishing she could be like Susan. Of course she's incredibly good - but Susan's voice is in a class of extremely rare people. We are so fortunate to be seeing her emerge now. Blessings, blessings, blessings for Susan and I hope she will ENJOY the rest of her life.

I have been out today shopping (didn't want to go because I thought I might miss something} and just keep humming to myself and probably out loud "Memories." There is something about Susan that you just can't get her out of your mind. Please everybody vote for Susan because I can't and tell all of your friends to vote for her! I don't think I have ever wanted something as bad for myself as I want this for Susan..I must be sick!

Well, if Susan is last again, I hope she can wait in some quiet room with just her family and friends, not backstage with a lot of people around.

Wild Ol Dan, you always seem to express our feelings so well. I don't think I could stand this if I didn't have all of you to lean on. Y'all don't forget we have promised no matter what happens we are going on with Susan, through good and bad, ups and downs, for always.
Posted by JRH2063 on May 29, 2009
I am so dissapointed that the BGT show did not think ahead and look after Susan in advance, given the obvious mass media attention she had. The entire BGT show is a disgrace in my opinion and in particular the way they handle vulnerable young persons, eg. Natali and Holly. What a complete disgrace to British broadcasting. I really hope that many complaints rapidly flow into the British Broadcasting Authority. I already sent my complaints - child exploitation (both from side of the show and the parents who put vulnerable children in that position)

Susan, you have brought so much love and happiness into my life. Your courage and determination has humbled me to tears. The moment i heard you sing i stood up from my computer and could not speak. I found myself in tears. I am heartbroken at the things that some mindless people have said about you. It makes me ashamed to call myself human. I can only live in the hope that they too are ashamed of the hurt they can cause. You truly are a wonderful lady and if i beleaved in god, i would prey for you. If their realy is angels of life then you have been given somthing that no other person i know possesses, and thats the ability to speak their language. All the best to you my love. Win or not you have won the one thing that no other person has ever won. My respect. Bless you susan with all my heart.

Press report: Richard Holloway, one of the executive producers on Britain's Got Talent, said: "She hasn't had room to breathe. She has constantly been followed by the paps and reporters whether it's been the pub, in the garden, in the hairdressers. It has been Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie attention where her every move is documented."

So my question is why didn't the show producers take better care of her in the last few weeks??????
Posted by Wild Ol' Dan on May 29, 2009
Howdy Pards,

Thanks for the time updates.

For you fellers who ain't figured out how to get that feed, do this right now...go back to our home page. Go down to the blog section. At the bottom you'll see 1-44 blogs...click on blog number 9...the last two sentences contains the words click here...click on that. Then click on the word ENTERTAINMENT at the top. Then click on ITV1. If you have radio player it should take you right to the live broadcast right now...and anytime you want tomorrow. Try it...and let us know if it works for you.

Once you've hit that initial click here button save it to your FAVORITES and you should be ready to go tomorrow or right now if you want to. Good Luck.

Adios for now. Talk to ya on down the trail.

I think your natural state of beauty and talent is somewhat compromised, due to your system going into a shock with all the chemicals in make up, hair products etc. (all the trappings of media "upping". The glitch which you recovered from has nothing to do with the stress of fame. There is no stress with talent as pure and honest as yours. Don't drink or eat anything given to you and demand all natural products in order to breathe safely. Do not let the evil destroy your talent. It is real and you are there. I love you. Elaine Paige loves you. Lotta Lenya loves you. All intelligent people love you. Screw the rest. WIN!!!!!!!

How do I vote? My vote is for Susan Boyle a million times over.
Posted by Allikat on May 29, 2009
Susan is the ONLY singer who made it to the finals based on popular vote alone--but she has some **serious** competition here. Please, someone who is in the UK, cast some votes for me. I'll buy some roses for you on the flowers blog if you just let me know--okay?

pottedferne: Put your TV on the National Geographic and you'll see how your tummy settles down :)))

It has been shown on TV Susan leaving the hotel in a car, smiling and thumbs up. So all of you stop worrying!!!

She will do it, just trust her!!! It's all she needs!!! Your trust and to be utterly convinced that she will deliver!

I am from Canada, I would really love it if you could vote for me. My gosh what a day! Good luck to Susan Boyle. She actually looks healthy, not so worried for her now.
Posted by Bohemian Spirit on May 29, 2009
About Susan being first in the line-up, my guess is that either BGT is using misdirection to get millions of viewers watching from the very beginning, or they are "balancing out" the fact that Susan sang last in the previous round. The latter motivation would be a very considerate gesture, because she won't have to sit around getting all nervous while everyone else sings; she can just sing and be done with it and relax for the rest of the show. However, I wouldn't be surprised if the former motivation also played a part in it.

The chat room is still there--only 1 person was still in it a few minutes ago when I left for awhile. I found out--all we have to do is, only use half the screen, and keep the bit up that shows everyone entering. Simply click on all 'guests' and it blocks them from showing their comments on our screens. For awhile there I was going over and over the 'guest' list, blocking and re-blocking, but it does work, especially if you block them all before they put through any comments.

So--the chat room may need to be 'cleaned out' whenever we want to use it, but it can be done! Doesn't stop those 'guests' from viewing it, but still...it's definitely useable.
Posted by gmcg on May 29, 2009
I just read in the West Lothian Courier that Susan had a cold the day of the semifinals and that day earlier she had slipped on the stage and almost fallen. She said that was why she hit a false note at the beginning of her song and why she was nervous walking out on stage. I didn't read this anywhere else.
Posted by tweek on May 29, 2009
For those in the U.S. were at work earlier today, they opened up the chat room, and it was fantastic. Besides our usual members commenting on line, there were a bunch of new members coming in from all over the world not just in the U.S. and Great Britian, it was wild...France, Austrailia, Ukraine, Canada...many new people from U.S. It was a great idea to add the chat room. I think the web site owner here feared we might get some foul mouthed people. We had one, but we chased him off. It was all great otherwise.
Posted by LucyB on May 29, 2009
How reassuring it is to see the smiling picture of Susan that was posted here today as well as the waving sequence of Susan in a car in the Piers video that was just recently posted. She sure don't look like she's melted down, in fact she looks REAL GOOD and HAPPY! ROCK THE WORLD!! YOU GO SUSAN!
Posted by pieceful1 on May 29, 2009
Susan, I am writing to you hoping some day you can read it. I just can't get enough of your singing. Tommorrow I am looking forward to your best work ever and I am praying for you. I can't wait for your first CD. There has never been anyone that I've heard before on any talent show that I've enjoyed their talent enough to buy something from them or to go see them. You have changed that. When you went up 4 octaves after the word shame in your first audition (the last being the strongest) I thought gee wouldn't it be great to get a song that highlights what you can do for the final. I hope all the fans and people are giving you the time you need to practice a new song. I could listen for hours and hours and never get bored. I heard Americans can not vote, what a shame. Please anyone that is able will you vote for Susan for me? There a lots of guys out there that will now want to date you not just kiss you. May you find the right one. Best of Luck to you Susan

Here's another poll result: from Fox.com And the "Ultimate Idol" is . . . Susan Boyle! More than 57,000 of you voted in a FOXNews.com viewer poll, and a whopping 71 percent of you say Boyle, the “Britain’s Got Talent” sensation, has the pipes to pummel "American Idol" winner Kris Allen. And unlike "American Idol," we're giving you the exact tally: 40,966 votes for Boyle and 16,898 votes for Allen.

Realize the disdain and shock from every singing teacher,singing school and singing primadonna in the whole bloody world when someone like Susan comes along. But when she wins they will realize how it was all meant to be and we must graciously accept being the "ladies in waiting" this time around.The birds are singing here in Northern Ontario, Canada, as cold as it is.

Hey Susan...Christiane here again...and don't let some little kid get you down...you are in such different universes...you are a true talent...and they are just a flash...just stay calm, and centered...just as you found your center in Memory...then you slammed it!...I'm there for you...watching and cheering you on!...onto Broadyway...onto greatness...but you must remain true to yourself...don't forget that...don't let all this fame take you off center...remember to breathe!...and breathe DEEP!

Posted by mdillow31 on May 29, 2009
I just saw on E! Entertainment Susan looking good and with a female that was with her and she was smiling. Pieers was on an interview there and he said that he told Susan to unpack her bags because this was the biggest prize. Apparently Susan listened to him and thank God she did. Hopefully, this will turn out good for Susan and all of her fans. I am glad I got to see this with my own eyes instead of hearing this and that. Susan looked.... GREAT!
Posted by tweek on May 29, 2009
For people that want to get a message to Susan, send it to: ryanscott@hotmail.com. I believe he is one of the owners of the fan site and he was chatting on line with us today. And, he specifically requested anyone who wanted to send more wishes after the signed card was sent to send them to him and he would try to get them to before the show. Anyone sending an email right now would get to them in the morning.

Folks, it's one thing to post poll results from AOL and Fox News but here in the UK I think her popularity has slipped a little. Especially after Aidan's performance tonight. A lot of the kids will vote for him, particularly given last year's winner's performance.

We NEED to vote for Susan as many times as humanly and financially possible.

VOTE EARLY, VOTE OFTEN.

Currently (4:40 pm Pacific Time) if you use the MyP2P website to get a live video feed, both ITV 1 and ITV 2 display the message "This programme is not currently available to watch on itv.com". So it looks like at least for now, ITV has shut down live streaming from it's end.

Let's hope we can find a way to watch Susan's performance live tomorrow! JustinTV and uStream are possible alternatives.

This story still has me in shock and awww. I just read that most of the flights from New York to London are full and unavailable now. People are literally flocking there to see her performance and they said atleast half the country of Britain will be tuned in. No wonder Simon sadi he's never seen anything like this, it's crazy. The whole world thinks that... Those 10 acts are going to be so nervous tomorrow.
Posted by Patricia's Art on May 29, 2009
Thats my question too JRH2063 ! Why did BGT let it get to this critical stage?! They should have protected Susan from the start,when she first came to the hotel. They pack so much into one week,maybe they need to rethink this show's schedule. Its grueling. I feel sorry for the 2 who won today,they have to perform again tomorrow,with not much time to rest! The stress alone must be exuasting.

I just went to the original blog post for the chat, and the link no longer works. It was probably taken down because of all of the trolls everyone's been referring to. If there's still a working link, how do we find it?

Hopefully we can get a message board for discussions. That has the advantage of being members-only, and allowing trollish/spamming posts (and "members") to be deleted--and also doesn't depend upon being there "real time" to participate. ;-)

@patriciasart...i'm not so sure they had a clue how popular she would be.

So much for the jaded pop culture crowd's knowledge of the phenom that Susan has become. I witnessed Elvis and the Beatles and "no BoDDDie" (i love writing in Amanda's accent)was prepared for the impact they would have on the world.

Today was the first day up and the fan site editor was monitoring it all day... I believe to make sure no one put any bad words, etc. He may have taken it down when BGT came on at 7PM...he was also being interviewed by Sky News in Scotland and he was going to be discussing the tremoundous impact this site has had. Hope he puts the video clip on here for us to watch.

Posted by Jezza on May 29, 2009
Susan is just amazing. That VOICE ! ..... it is so powerful and yet fragile at the same time. It's heart-breaking. I hope she doesn't change the way she "looks", because when she smiles she is one of the most beautiful people I have ever seen. And that cheeky Scottish personality .... she's a hoot !!! Even though she was obviously nervous at both previous performances she managed to "nail" both songs (both notoriously difficult to sing). At the start of "Memory" she knew instinctively that she was in a little trouble and fixed it straight away (when she placed her hand on her diaphram and settled herself down). May you have a long and wonderfully fulfilling career, Susan, no matter what happens tonight. You have millions of fans and people from all over the world who have fallen in love with you ... there are thousands of us here in AUSTRALIA who will be up at Midnight tonight sending love and blessings to you.

Let me see it I have this straight--- If there is a ton of pounds bet on Susan to win BGT tomorrow nite, doesn't that mean that all those that placed their money for her to win would also go and vote for her to win as many times as they could so they wouldn't lose their money? If she loses, then they lose their money. RIGHT? So the more money placed for her to win could be considered proportional to the number of votes she gets, which could be a good indicator of what's going to happen tomorrow nite - SUSAN WINS!!! Now how's that for soothing rationalization so I can go in and go to sleep!! See ya first thing in the morning of FINAL DAY---OH WHAT A FRENZY THAT WILL BE!! GO SUSAN, ROCK THE UNIVERSE!!!

Can you believe that, she's the ULTIMATE IDOL, and she has not even won BGT! I do not believe the media trash hurt her one bit. It just caused Piers Morgan a migraine headache, because he had to try to simmer everybody down and get the press off her back. Just for your info BGT needs Susan Boyle, more than she needs them!

Final results show is from 9;30 PM to 10 PM GMT (4:30 PM to 5:00 PM EST)

Thus, an earlier main show, then an hour off, then a half hour results show. (Hope this helps)

Howdy pottedferne,

Shucks I ain't never been praised for not really knowin' how to do somethin' before... Truth is, I don't know how to do a good many things...

But, reckon it would be kinda nice if somebody were to get that chat room back up and operational again. There's a whole herd of us scattered all over the world that would just like to talk with our fellow Susan Boyle fans as the excitement and anticipation begins to mount.

But, last time I was there the "spoilers" were out in full force...these lowlife idiots don't know more than two or three swear words...and that's their whole vocabulary. And right now they are tryin' to hurt Susan's reach for the gold...that's what bullies do, I suppose.

Still it was kinda nice chattin' with members of the Susan Boyle Fans Site Family. Tomorrow is either gonna be one of the brightest days in the world's history...or not. There sure is gonna be a whole lotta celebratin' around the world when Susan wins! I'm lookin' forward to it...

Adios for now. Talk to ya on down the trail.

@johnnycake - Thanks. Will check it out as soon as I can open my message. Yahoo is being touchy lately... probably making "improvements"... :-P

@SusanBoyleFan - Not sure if this was re: my comment - "People are wanting chat and then wanting it to be shut down???" - but I'll clarify that I was saying it would be great to have a message board, not necessarily instead of chat, but as another discussion option, one which would also be easier to filter out trolls and stuff. Of course it takes time to find and set up one; not trying to put pressure or anything, just throwing the idea out there! I was also saying I thought you shut down the chat because of the trolls, not that it "should" be shut down. Does that help?
Posted by tweek on May 29, 2009
patriciasart, thanks I was glad to help, I am going to keep posting it tonite because so many people were asking for it in the chat room. Also, there is more interesting news: for those that thought Susan's performance of Memories was not as good or was a little shaky, in 6 days it pulled 16.9 million views keeping up or surpassing the I Dreamed A Dream clip.

And please somebody tell Piers to stop calling Susan "Little" and "Old" ! And the media calling her "Frumpy" "A Spinster" Its horriable! What is wrong with these british people?! Have they no heart. I'm a 51 year old women and I would have hurt feeling if I heard people saying this about me! Its a crying shame!

Fox New polled 57,000 as to their preference between Susan & Idol winner Kris Allen - it came in &1% Susan, 29% Kris Allen!!!

"And unlike "American Idol," we're giving you the exact tally: 40,966 votes for Boyle and 16,898 votes for Allen."

SO - If I read above correctly, & all flights from NY > London are booked solid, the Mericans glutting the British phone lines tomorrow might be a very good thing indeed.

Chat room worked fine when I was on this afternoon, trolls notwithstanding. Is there a way to set it up to be open only to members? If not, a firm policy of ignoring trolls will work too.

Please vote for Susan on my behalf too. I live in American so I can't vote. I want so much for this lovely lassie to win Saturday. Many of the others are young and can get a second chance.

So, pleas vote for Susan, thanks much Helen

Calling England from the United States explained:

011 - US exit code; must be dialed first for all international calls made from the USA or Canada 44 - country code for England/United Kingdom area code - 2 - 5 digit area codes phone number - 4 - 8 digits; in most cases area code and number total 10 digits in the UK.

London Area Code is 20....

0114420.then SUSAN/BGT phone number to vote.

lets vote for Lady Susan!

(a pre-paid phone card is great...its very expensive to dial direct)

Not to be a total chowderhead - but is the line-up above the order in which they will appear tomorrow, or just the order in which they placed / qualified (i.e. Susan & Diversity #'s 1 & 2 in first semi, etc.)??

Sounds like we need a new blog post, front and center on the home page, making it clear that ONLY UK PEOPLE can vote, and urging the rest of us NOT to clog the phone lines.

Calls from outside USA aren't counted, per rules, so I understand, but might jam lines for legal voters for Susan. May not be a good idea.

I think it's all damage control, if they opened the links to the world, they'd be swamped the sites would freeze up, as there's such a world following for Susan, and because of her fame the other acts have gain fans through out the world too. I was almost in tear myself when Hollie asked if she could have another go at it, and then Ant said the producers said there wasn't enough time, Dec consoling her, the Simon stepping in as the Knight in shining armour, said, We will find the time. I can see why they want to keep it in the family as per say, but I'm sure the sites on YouTube will post the videos as soon as they can knowing there is a global demand to know the results.

I'm from Canada, an avid fan of Susan. I have an advise to Susan that before you sing on Sat, pray hard to your mom and dad to guide you, ask for enough strength and courage to achieve your dream, and praise God for giving you a wonderful talent. You`ll never go wrong if you put God first in everything you do. I`ll pray for you Susan.

From my point of view Susan seems like the only serious ,grown up contender. I mean ,kids crying all over the place, judges giving second chances. Packing all these acts ,40 of them into 5 days. It does seem more like a circus than a talent show. I am only grateful to them for one reason. They brought Susan to us. And now ,regardless of what happens on that show,she will make a cd and it will be a huge hit !

The http:www.myp2p.eu/ is a live station, albeit technically a 'pirate channel'. It works well, or has for me, all along. I recommend it for anyone who has good antivirus protection, because going to such sites always causes all sorts of problems otherwise.

If you want to use it, just enter the URL by hand, then click on the Live TV in the top row of tabs, next, the Entertainment tab below that, and last, the iTV! channel in the grey box. Be sure to already have the latest WMP or RealPlayer installed, and it pops right on!

Depending upon which browser you use, and if you use 'custom' settings, you may have a box pop up asking you to 'choose' which media player to use. Take care of all that beforehand by going there now and arranging it. Me, I just have my players on my Desktop so I have something to click on when needed. Once you have 'chosen' a player for the site, though, you won't have to do that step over and over each time.

ITV 1 gave me a an HD, perfect audio, in real time last week. I am waiting for the USA EST time. But, more acts. Last week it started at 1530 hours. Maybe a little earlier this week. Flawless feed... A+ or a 10. Video and audio were fantastic... When I was a child, I cranked our phone to ask the operator to get Mrs. Burgh on the line.... 55 years later and we have Susan Boyle live in HD... amazing.

Sun will win, Susan will win, Susan will win....

AND, the WORLD will be better for it.

Patriciasart, I think you might get a kick out of this I sent an emmail to one of the fansite editors and here's what it said:ryanscott@hotmail.com

I, Carol Kraft, Dreamed A Dream

Now, I personally have "Dreamed A Dream", that one day you can teach Susan how to run a computer. I know she probably does not want to even learn, but I think everyone even if they are 80 years old should learn. That's my first dream.

My second dream, would be for her to come on line and chat with us. That would be so awesome. Even if she was slow to begin with.

Is the line up given above actually the order in which the acts will be presented? It is exactly the same as the line up of winning acts by semifinal nights, people's choice followed by judges choice all the way down. Have a good look.

Why would they put Hollie last, for instance? (So that she can't have 'another chance' later?) And why have Diversity and Flawless perform one right after the other? If that is how they are doing it, then, fine, but it's a bit odd, lining up the acts according to the order they got voted into the Finals.

If Susan does get to go first--hmm--I could see that maybe working well on her behalf. Please, prepare your voting fingers, all UK fans! :-D :-D :-D

Susan Boyle is up first, no pressure there. But it might be nice to set the bar and just sit back. American television is full of reports that Susan has quit or is having a crisis. Critics will take the smallest thing and blow it totally out of proportion. Media feeds on its' self and makes news by forcing pressure on the top runner. I hope that Susan Boyle is up for it. If I am like most people my age (a grammy), we are all rooting for Susan and follow every lead to recordings that we find. She showed talent very young but she wasn't blond and perfect so she was over looked. Well watch out now. She has some fighting spirit and has nothing to loose by risking it all now. America is rooting for you Susan! We get perfect people shoved down out throats here in America all the time but we love talent more than artificially perfect people. We love YOU just the way you are. You are someone that we can all relate to. Grammys have the power of the disposable money and we are not afraid to use it!

I am only hanging in there for Susan. I want her to be ok! I really like her. I have watched her interviews over and over and she is just so nice!!! I try to overlook the condecending way she is treated by Piers,Simon and Amanda. I know its all show biz and all that but they could be more respectful. I just want her to get through this so she can go home to her village and celebrate and cut her cd and sing for the queen!
Posted by pottedferne on May 29, 2009
LOL JJ, I plan to celebrate with you guys, but the last time I did that was when I won the exacta at the Preakness and fell in my fish pond. But I will do it again for Susan!!! the bruise has healed.

all susan boyle fans, how many times are u voting in the final. please vote as much as u can to prove all the haters wrong and make susan win the contest as she deserves so much for her beautiful voice and magnificent personality which is infectious. WEB BACK HOW MANY TIMES U WILL VOTE THE MORE THE BETTER. p.s susan is a star
Posted by Sgohorses on May 29, 2009
Susan, The USA loves you. A poll was taken today by Fox News for the Ultimate Idol. American Idol Kris Allen 29% Susan Boyle 71%. Take Heart, you are a star. Shine Bright.
Posted by IvoryMist on May 29, 2009
I reread Piers' first blog..and this stood out:

"Because Susan Boyle is not just a good singer, she’s a fantastic singer. Someone whose stunning range, tone and delivery is worthy of comparison to anyone – Elaine Paige included.

As I watched her performance back again last night, I texted Simon in Hollywood: ‘My god, Susan was even better than I remembered – she’s unbelievable.’ He agreed, and I could almost feel his beady little eyes going ‘KERCHING!’ down the line from his new Beverly Hills mansion.

For, unless I am a brainless aardvaak – which might, sadly, be true – then this West Lothian villager is going to sell a lot of records once this series is over."

Posted by tweek on May 29, 2009
The media is trumping up their last posion to get the most papers sold this week. Susan is news. Hopefully, the UK public will stay true to her. The British bookies are still showing her in the lead unless they just want to collect more money for the pot. The Sun and Mirror papers I think are like our american Enquirer paper, the scuttlebut news stories. And these are the worst out their right now, but it's not as bad as it has been for last couple days.

I don't normally chat in chat rooms but I decided to try it for the first time. I was surprised at how many ugly people or "trolls" there are out there. I blocked those that I found offensive, but is there some way to make the chat room a member only? I would like to celebrate when Susan wins tomorrow but I am hesitant to chat when there are such ugly trolls in there as well.
Posted by Noelle on May 29, 2009
PLEASE VOTE FOR SUSAN on my behalf. Noelle, from Texas, USA

Thanks, Piggie, for posting the time zone differences for viewing BGT finals. Seems they changed the time. Glad I now know that CST will be 12:45 PM on Saturday for watching Susan win BGT. :D

I have a question for someone in the UK area.. The other day someone said the reason the little boy dancer was that last year they split the vote. Does that mean if one group does not win they can throw their votes to someone else, or what does it mean exactly?
Posted by canfantic on May 29, 2009
i wish i lived in u.k. i would flood them votes. i love this lady, her beautiful, heart stopping voice and her confident, feisty spirit. the queen will get a wonderful treat when susan performs for her.

For those interested in chat .. I have set up a temporary chatroom on my site for now. When you get to the page there will be a dizzler music player and beneath it, a chatroom.... just sign in as guest...password 7777777 Then when you connect, you will be in the lobby ...click "List Rooms" on the bottom right. A box will open, and in the blank space at the bottom type "tommyusa", then click "Join Room"....Voila, your in! It is a private room and no one can enter without the name and password I just gave you. You can change your username after you enter, if you wish.... http://tommyusa.faithweb.com/blank_3.html
Posted by Gypsymoth on May 29, 2009
You know, even if Susan doesn't win the final tomorrow, she will still be a winner because now the whole world knows her story & has heard her voice. I wouldn't be surprised if she was still invited to sing for the queen regardless of the outcome tomorrow. Of course, my (non) vote is for Susan. If some one in the UK could make my non-vote onto a real one (for Susan of course) I would really appreciate it. Go Susan! The whole world is rooting for you!!

It is so sad that the media didn't learn the lesson from the death of Princess Di. It is also sad that they don't see the potential backlash negativity will have with the HUNDREDS of millions of people around the world who love Susan.

There is a real lesson to be learned in this amazing support. NBC announced tonight there have been over 280 million SuBo hits on YouTube in 7 weeks. It will take months for analysts and marketers to figure out this immense international reaction. I hope they sit up and pay attention that we are sick of negativity. We are on the right track with our positive support. Lets keep it up!

Any extra vote from someone in the UK would be much appreciated, I know during these rough economic times it's hard when the votes cost money, so if anyone casts an extra vote(or two)for me and has a paypal account I would gladly reimburse you for your vote. YES, WE LOVE SUSAN AND WANT HER DREAM OF SINGING BEFORE THE QUEEN TO COME TRUE!!!!!! God Speed Susan on your journey to Championville!!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!!

bajaraquel - You are SO RIGHT!!! I HATED what they did to Princess Diana, I LOVED her, she was THE best thing in England, and Charles KILLED HER!! Because he CHEATED on her! I wanted to kill him! He made her so miserable that she wanted to commit suicide, and because of him, she ended up DEAD! And I can not believe ANY in Britain accepts that THING he married! Nor him, he is a piece of dirt! He killed her, it was AWFUL! :( Thanks for the info about the news :)

I was thinking, of folk heroes today every nation has them, and was comparing Susan to what Anne of Green Gables by Lucy Maud Montgomery, has done for a wee Island in Canada. It's a very similar circumstance.

Posted by MJ from USA on May 29, 2009
Susan's voice is incredible. Remember her live rendition of "I Dream a Dream" and her studio recording of "Cry Me a River". Those are her testament of what an incredible voice she has. "Memory" given the circumstances that surrounded it , it was still good. Now imagine when Susan goes to the recording studio with today's technology and technicals. MY God I'm betting Susan's first album will be Platinum! Grammy's here she comes!

Posted by ML on May 29, 2009
Oh, Everyone, tell me people aren't going to feel sorry for Hollie and vote for her and not Susan?!? I was perfectly able to handle Kris winning Idol over Adam but I wouldn't be able to handle if Hollie beats Susan. Don't get me wrong. Hollie is cute and sweet and has a pretty little voice but if she got THAT upset when she forgot words to a song, she is not ready for this. I'd like to remind everyone that Britney Spears was on StarSearch when she was even younger and that hasn't worked out so well.

I don't think it's fair Hollie got a do over.

Okay, someone tell me it's going to be fine and Susan won't get robbed. It doesn't matter in that we'll buy her CDs the second they come out, but still . . .
Posted by JJ :) on May 29, 2009
Ol'Dan - OK, that sounds fine to me :) I'd like to sit by that fire with you and just talk! Did you get my message to you a while back bout you being just like one of my best friends who just passed away May 2nd? His name was Ol'Feral and he loved cats. He lived in Idaho. You remind me so much of him, that I just can't help but love ya - JJ :)

Howdy BGTfan,

Unless you are in Great Britain, please don't try. It won't be counted and will take up important time when others could vote for Susan. If you are in GB then as you watch her performance they will announce the phone number just for Susan.

Wild Ol' Dan
Posted by MJ from USA on May 29, 2009
It's now in the hands of UK to do what's right. Vote for Susan Boyle who has all the qualities of what so many people want to hear. Her voice is incredible. You cannot deny it. You cannot ignore it. Her voice is what the masses will soak in. And for good reason to buy in droves.

Cheers for our dear Susan!

Ol'Dan - I am glad you are flattered and you are welcome for the compliments. Yes, he sure was a Sweetheart and I can't stop crying about him. He was my lil Kitty, that's what I called him. We were email buddies, we sent each other songs and pictures of cats and ducks. He was a cat lover and I am a duck lover. Of course I love ALL of Gods critters too, but, these particular ducks have been tormented and abused and tortured and killed so much by mean bully people just because some say they are ugly :( But like Susan, they shine above all thew other ducks. If you wanna see what I am talking about you can see my website - http://muscovyducks.com They are the SWEETEST of all ducks in the world, they try so hard to be your friend, yet just because they have some bubbles ontheir face people abuse them :( And I FIGHT the bullies! Anyway, he was the meow and I was the quack, and we had so much fun together, we thrilled each other with the things we shared, I send him cat jokes and he sent me bird & fowl pictures, I just can't STAND that he is dead :(((( :::::::::::::::: Hugs, JJ :)

Thank you very much, Southernlady. I needed that reality check. :)

I didn't see any real tears either and they aren't doing that little girl any favors by giving her that do over. It is a sad fact of life that we don't get do overs. Look at Susan. She started off bumpy with Memories then like the grown up woman she is, she pulled it together and sang. I was so proud of her and I will remember that everytime I get scared or worried I can't so something. I will think of Susan placing her hand on her tummy and getting down to business.

Rock us, Susan!!!

We have a chat on another fan site. I just asked the administrator if we can open up to you guyes... don't know... this is a members-only site, too, so how did the trolls get in?
Posted by Patricia's Art on May 29, 2009
I'm back, I had my Susan fix! I just review her performances and interviews again. It reassures me she is alright and will do just fine tomorrow. We know she has the talent and ability to win and win big. I think it will be her best performance yet!
Posted by johnnycake on May 29, 2009
@ ML Hollie will get a big sympathy vote, but it will be divided because of Shaheen. And in fact Aidan will probably share in the vote for those inclined to vote for children. Among the adult contestants there shouldn't be any question of who's on top, although if you want to worry about something I'd say Shaun Smith in second place.

Posted by PIGGIE on May 29, 2009
I know Susan is just going to do great tomorrow, but I'm still very very nervous. Just never know what's going to happen with these voting shows. Honestly, I've never watched even one episode of American Idol, but this little lady has just got me hooked!
Posted by MJ from USA on May 29, 2009
Shaheen? I'm sorrry. He may have the voice but i'm so sick and tired of all the shouting instead of singing from this kid. Hollie and the 12 yr old from 2 Grand sings way better than him. And of course Susan Boyle wins it with a landslide.

I'm in TommyUSA's chat room right now...you get there from his web site. Didn't he post the information right here on this blog, earlier? He had to go, but we can use it. Here: I'm reposting what he wrote:

"For those interested in chat .. I have set up a temporary chatroom on my site for now. When you get to the page there will be a dizzler music player and beneath it, a chatroom.... just sign in as guest...password 7777777 Then when you connect, you will be in the lobby ...click "List Rooms" on the bottom right. A box will open, and in the blank space at the bottom type "tommyusa", then click "Join Room"....Voila, your in! It is a private room and no one can enter without the name and password I just gave you. You can change your username after you enter, if you wish.... http://tommyusa.faithweb.com/blank_3.html

It's really easy, and after you get in, you can change your 'nickname' to what it is here. I'm all alone over there just now.
Posted by Lovebites on May 29, 2009
ML, don't fret, the humans at BGT, while maybe exploitive, are not morons. The Hollies and Shaheens will grow up to fight again another day. The others with real talent will get their contracts. But a person like SuBo graces us only once in a lifetime, and all of Great Britain and Scotland know that. They won't let her down. She won't get robbed. Rest on that and have a great evening.

You are truly awesome
Posted by bajaraquel on May 29, 2009
I watched the Hollie clip and had a severe urge to spank her bottom and send her to a corner for a time out. I can see her being nervous but the whole thing didn't jive with me. I'm hoping that other parents out there saw the same thing.
Posted by PIGGIE on May 29, 2009
MJ, you are so right. Shasheen and so many of these young singers seem to just do that - shout on key. There's no beauty, no nuance, nothing that moves me at all listening to them. Susan is in a class by herself.
Posted by MJ from USA on May 29, 2009
well said, Lovebites. I'm hoping our UK brothers and sisters heed the call.
Posted by Nancee on May 29, 2009

Posted by JJ :) on May 29, 2009
Re: southernlady - That is what Paul & Tommy are trying to do is to make it so guests can not get in to chat. They don't know if they can do it tho. But hey, it is fine in here, don't you think? Ol'Dan does & so do I, ya don't have to go SO FAST in here, that is 4 sure ;) We could ALL start here and see what happens. I still wanna try to get into JohnnyCakes & Tommys chat too, we are all safe in there, so don't forget everybody. Hugs, JJ :)
Posted by southernlady on May 29, 2009
That's right ML. I watched where she placed her hand too. That's a professional pulling herself together & getting on with the business of singing. No, they didn't do that young lady any favors by letting her try again. This isn't a grade school talent show...this is the real deal.
Posted by MJ from USA on May 29, 2009
Susan is the people's champion. UK should know this better than anyone for they had a People's Princess in Diana.
Posted by MJ from USA on May 29, 2009
I'm guessing this is how it will go ...

1. Susan Boyle - winner

2. Stavros Flatly

Posted by southernlady on May 29, 2009
JJ...I'll chat wherever you guys lead..I'm here for awhile.
Posted by Allikat on May 29, 2009
For all UK fans on here: those of us who don't live in the UK and can't cast votes can certainly help 'pay you back' by purchasing extra 'whatever' when the time comes to do it correctly.

I happen to know that Paul is working on getting all that straightened out, and is asking folks NOT to try ordering flowers yet since we still don't know when Susan will be back home.

The fact is, she'll not be there for long, because the BGT tour starts in, what--a couple of weeks or so? She'll be back in London for rehearsals, and when the tour is over she is supposed to be set to fly to Prague and record with the Czech Nat'l Symphony for a few days. I don't think she has to 'win' BGT for that to happen...she only needs to get through her song decently.

Must be terribly exciting, the prospect of FINALLY getting to record a whole CD, and doing it with a live symphony!

We'll just concentrate on 'thinking' Susan through this whole thing, or praying her through, and doing a bit of creative visualization here...she is gonna do GREAT, she is not gonna pull a Hollie Steel on us...she is gonna be even better than she was at her audition...she will totally eclipse what she did with 'Memory', for sure...
Posted by JJ :) on May 29, 2009
Dottie - They come in as guests. So they need to make it so no guests can get in. There is one who joined as a member, and came in and bad mouthed Susan. I reported them so I hope they kicked that troll OUT!
Posted by Ruth F on May 29, 2009
I'm disappointed in the British media and, more importantly, the members of the British public who choose to criticize Ms. Boyle. She is not a longtime celebrity who is accustomed to the ebb and flow of public opinion. She is one of us. Of course, the criticisms disturb and distract her. Who among us would respond differently? If, in fact, you can cast a vote for Ms. Boyle on my behalf, I would be grateful. She is a lovely singer, entirely undeserving of the criticism she has received this week.
Posted by calford on May 29, 2009

Posted by JJ :) on May 29, 2009
Allikat - THANKS for the info!! :) You can tell that Susan has not given all she has yet, she isn't even straining, she would probably knock the building down if she wanted to. Like, watch Jennifer Hudson and most of the singers these days, they are YELLING! They strain their face to get those big notes out, but Susan, hasn't strained yet! She is AWESOME!!! I think she is one of, if not THE, greatest singer of ALL times!
Posted by JJ :) on May 29, 2009
Nighty nite sweet Ol'Dan!!
Posted by sassyone on May 29, 2009
I have a 11 year old daughter and she saw the clip and said, "oh wow, that girl is a fake." Hollie is another Briteny spears, the mother forces them into showbiz, and keeps their money. BTW where was Hollie's brother who is a teenager and he also tried out for BGT last season but was told he wasn't good enough? Yeah this show is fixed. They're trying to force Boyle over the edge, and then say she's just not good enough for first place.

We as her fans need to vote for her as much as we can. She needs to win. I don't think Simon liked boyle from the beginning. If he had his way (if it didn't explode on the internet) he would have probably told her that she wasn't good enough. But because she is a huge name he had no other choice but to put her through the finals.

We will help her win. She's got to win. Or we will go down fighting.
Posted by Noelle on May 29, 2009
Patriciasart, I totally agree. Greg Pritchard's performance was definitely creepy. Bizarre! No wonder one of the judges buzzed him almost at the start.

Wishign you well for tonight's final Susan. I wasn't impressed by the comment from a so-called pop singer who has decided to criticise you. However, we (your fans) know you're a fantastic singer. You have a tremendous following already. No matter what happens in the final, Susan, you are likely to be a professional singer now, anyway. Don't let it go. I do hope you win, you are still my favourite in the final. Good Luck xx

Susan ....

This is the moment! This is the day, When you send all your doubts and demons On their way!

Every endeavor, you have made - ever - Is coming into play, Is here and now - today!

This is the moment, This is the time, When the momentum and the moment Are in rhyme!

Give you this moment - This precious chance - you'll gather up your past And make some sense at last!

This is the moment, When all you've done - All the dreaming, Scheming and screaming, Become one!

For all these years, you've faced the world alone, And now the time has come To prove to them you've made it on your own!

This is the moment - your final test - Destiny beckoned, you never reckoned, Second Best!

you won't look down, you must not fall! This is the moment, The sweetest moment of them all!

This is the moment! Damn all the odds! This day, or never, you'll sit forever With the gods!

When you look back, you will always recall, Moment for moment, This was the moment, The greatest moment Of them all!

Susan, this IS your moment! Shine Susan, Shine.

Please vote on my behalf. I am in Canada and cannot vote. I love Susan and am disgusted that Hollie was given a second chance. If there are not the same rules, do not be in the same contest. The mother had alot of nerve asking the judges if she could go again. She should have just taken her off stage and comforted her. That is life.
Posted by Covenanter on May 29, 2009
Last night I saw little Hollie Steel Crack, At the age of 10 is the show not expecting too much from one so young. How can we expect a Child to compeat alongside an adult ,it is unfare to all. If Holly wins tonight Just how much preasure will she be under when she has to sing infrount of the Queen, even top stars have admitted that the preasure is a nightmair. Yes Holly is good But PLEASE DONT TAKE AWAY HER CHILDHOOD.

Posted by YourAwesome on May 30, 2009
They are all winners...its not just the one at the top!! BUT SUSAN WILL WIN!!! :)
Posted by Sueandpebbles on May 30, 2009
Gawd you lot have been busy since I went to bed last night!

I'll be voting over and over again tonight, getting as many calls in as I can for Susan.

What a travesty with Hollie last night, voting her thro just because of her age and the tears. She is not up to this, none of the children should be put thro this sort of pressure. I won't be watching BGT next year unless they stop the kid acts.

Just been reported on the national radio here that Susan remains the favourite. Go Susan!

Hello to everyone who I talked to on Tommy's blog tonight. It was great to chat with you. Goodnite, all.
Posted by Covenanter on May 30, 2009
What sort of Pairent aloughs their child to face that sort of presure. What dos'e it do to their tender young minds. Dont take their childhood away.
Posted by YourAwesome on May 30, 2009
Thanks Sue ..yes we gabbed and gabbed...lol So how many times can you vote or will you vote?? I would have sent you money!!!! SUSAN WILL WIN!!!
Posted by YourAwesome on May 30, 2009
Yeah for the SUSAN REMAINS FAVORITE!!! Hi USA!! Morning!! Yes Covenanter...poor kids...sometimes I think it is the parents pushing them...but sometimes the child wants it too. I still think too young!
Posted by purplegothicqueen on May 30, 2009
Covananter - you posted how can we expect a child to compete alongside an adult? Well usually a child will get a vote over an adult even if it is just for the cutability factor. It was terrible about Hollie yesterday. The BGT bosses are worried about how Susan will cope and now have Hollie to deal with as well. I fear how the voting will go tonight. Hot favourite here seems to be for Shaheen or the dance acts. I am hoping Susan can pull it through and will be voting as many times as humanly possible. I hope that everyone who wants Susan to win and are able to do so, will pick up that phone and dial. I forget how many times someone has stated that they like someone on these shows and don't bother voting because it is so expensive.

Susan must win! She is the best act by far!
Posted by YourAwesome on May 30, 2009
I pray this doesn't turn into a money issue..when it's someone dream??? Can't control everything...that is why I pray!!! SUSAN ANGEL SUSAN WILL WIN!!!
Posted by YourAwesome on May 30, 2009
SUSAN HAS DREAMED THIS DREAM FOR TO LONG!!! ITS HER TIME FOR THE DREAMS DO COME TRUE>>>HAPPY ENDING!!!
Posted by FastEddie on May 30, 2009
HEY UK, Please Vote for me too since I,m in the USA and Can,t vote for Susan. She REALLY does deserve to WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by YourAwesome on May 30, 2009
The young will have their chance...besides just because your not the winner of BGT doesn't mean you don't have talent and you won't be having a career. The opposite is true ...the ones with true talent will be shining for a long time to come. SUSAN HAS WAITED ALL HER LIFE FOR THIS!!!!

Posted by johnnycake on May 30, 2009
@ purplegothicqueen Children apparently CAN compete against adults in this competition, and can win, but they really SHOULDN'T I believe is the point, for exactly the reason you state, the cute factor can offset the years of hard work and accomplishment factor. Kids should be in a separate category. But in this case I think Shaheen and Hollie (and Aidan)will cancel each other out.
Posted by Laila on May 30, 2009
Please, vote for me, too. I live in Denmark, and can't vote. I hope Susan nails it tonight. Shame on all her critics!!
Posted by YourAwesome on May 30, 2009

You're awesome, my sleep has been on hold all week. Friends are asking what's wrong with me. I tell them SoBoitis. I explain the situation and some actually have taken an interest (you'd have to know my friends to appreciate that 1 of them taking an interest is amazing.) My brother broke his leg in a horse accident this week. I gave him the myp2p instructions and told him what to do with his spare time in bed. He hasn't responded. Glad I have you folks that understand.

Posted by daygo5 on May 30, 2009
susan will win, i feel for hollie she is being pushed and i dont like it, she will end up like lena zavoroni the judges sould spare her that. Funny! that prof. hasnt come out with things affecting hollie and could destroy her mental health. Shows you doesnt it.
Posted by YourAwesome on May 30, 2009
WOW Johnnycake....we are all nuts!!! lol AT least we are together!! Glad you here!!...Hi rf!!! Join the fun count down!!!
Posted by johnnycake on May 30, 2009
Well, I'm quite certain that she is without a doubt the absolute best and most deserving, but when you see Stavros in the final, and realize that Fred Bowers and Fabia made it to the semi finals along with Nick Hell and the Barrow Boys, I guess anything can happen.
Posted by johnnycake on May 30, 2009
Didn't Martin Matcham's guitar look like Fabia's bra?
Posted by YourAwesome on May 30, 2009
Yes interesting thoughts about professional...hmmmm I wonder why they don't talk about Hollie's mental health?? When I read that article..I thought what rubbish!! I would go get advice from my garbage man before that person!! lol
Posted by mdillow31 on May 30, 2009
I'm in Illinois and I am so nervous I haven't gone to bed yet. Will get a few hours and be back up earlier than usual. Going to be a long day but Susan is worth it. :)

I think they need two categories. One for adults and one for children.
Posted by YourAwesome on May 30, 2009
lol johnnycake..that is funny! Yeah what the heck??? To some acts that made it through???? Makes you wonder??? SUSAN HAS BEEN WAITING TO LONG FOR HER DREAMS TO COME TRUE!!! ITS HER TURN!!! SHE IS GOING TO WIN!!
Posted by YourAwesome on May 30, 2009
lol mdillow!!! who needs sleep?? its over rated! Yes to the categorie thing... SUSAN WILL WIN!! SENDING POSITIVE VIBES!!!!
Posted by johnnycake on May 30, 2009
Now that it's slow, has anyone googled Julie Andrews at age 12? That's a child who could compete against an adult and win and the adult she beat would be glad just to have been on the same stage with her. That's not Hollie Steel. I couldn't believe it when I heard Edelweiss. Insane to try to make a direct comparison!
Posted by rf on May 30, 2009
For YourAwesome- It seems that this is the disappeared chatroom now. Of course I´m joining. And it seems, so far, the only one representing Czech Republic.

Vote for Susan!

GREAT!!! Glad you are here!! I will have to check out Julie at that age....Yes you are right again ...no comparison...Hollie is still very good for her age. She has a time on her side to critque her vocals....SUSAN HAS NOW!!! SUSAN NEEDS THIS...AND DESERVES THIS!! not shouting...just expressing..lol
Posted by mdillow31 on May 30, 2009
YourAwesome, I am STILL up. LOL ! I believe since Piers went to her and asked her to stay Susan will go fot it. I saw her on E! Entertainment and they have Susan away from that mess with people watching over her from the press and she was SMILING !!! If she is SMILIMG she will have confidence and belt out a song that will knock our socks off. I haven't been like this since Elvis and the Beetles. LOL !

Yes, I saw the interview with Piers with my own eyes so I know it is TRUE. He said he went to Susan and asked her to unpack her bags and stay for the finals as that was the prize she had been working for. I think they took Susan away from the hotel. The lady wa holding her hand and the media was taking pictures but they weren't bothering her and she was safe and she was SMILING REALLY BIG. I think she will sing for Pies as she likes him so much. LOL !

“I told her I would help her in any way I can. She has earned the right to be in that final and I didn’t want her to miss out on her big night.”

Demi Moore:

Demi told her: “The whole world is rooting for you whatever the outcome. You have nothing to lose – just keep sharing your light.”

Elaine Paige:

Elaine added: “I’ll be watching with my fingers crossed for you.”

Hey ALL Susan fans, I'm so uptight after reading the article of this Russell Grant... I got it from Google dated NOW, May 30, just now. He has predicted that our Susan, yes, that our dear Susan isn't going to win. Anyone aware of this? Anybody can block this Karma?

Good Luck

Maybe,just maybe, since this has become such a long thread, requiring many horsepower to reload, we should consider beginning another for continued discussion??? Good idea??? bad idea??? We can't start a blog, but someone could start a thread with a pic, maynbe??
Posted by mdillow31 on May 30, 2009
Oh yeah. before I catch a few winks there were several from this fan club who posted to Piers blog on Susan. Everyone did a good job and I think there was close to 600 people that posted the last time I saw it. Everyone was telling him that Susan needed protection from the press and about his comments about Shaheen over Susan plus the fact he had asked Susan for a date and she probably has a crush on him. I think he realized that. That was one reason he talked Susan into staying but BGT would have lost big time if Susan hadn't stayed for the finals. Simon is flying Demi Moore in for Susan. I posted 4 times to Piers myself and just told him he had better help Susan because her fans expected it from him.
Posted by YourAwesome on May 30, 2009

Good gracious! Didn't some of you even go to bed, last night? Whew! This blog wasn't even up when I went to bed last night, and I checked in this morning and here it was, with five hundred-some comments. I'm off to the races this morning, but will return in a few hours and spend the rest of the day and probably half the night tonight enjoying your company. Until then, I hope you all have a lovely day and I'll talk with you later. GOOOOOOO SUSAN! GO! FIGHT! WIN!

The Video of Hollie's first attempt at the finals is posted on YouTube in the BritainsSoTalented Channel pay close attention the the 0:45 second mark Simon says something and then Hollie whimpers, but continues, then there's a total break down, I wonder what he said I sure wish I could read lips. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOWQwBqhmOA&feature=channel_page

Posted by Allikat on May 30, 2009
Okaaaaay---just read the Russell Grant URL which TelsCafe posted. Sorry, but it reads like a self-serving advert to me.

Still--I read something from this other psychic at least a month ago, which said that although she couldn't see Susan winning this competition, she'd go on to have a fulfilling career; no garbage about 'doing a reading' for her and 'wanting her to follow certain advice' though.

Also spoke about some 'love affair' which would begin for Susan in either June or July and last 6-8 weeks, then another beginning next year, which would be good if she got through the first 18-24 months of it, and the couple would marry...wish I could remember the woman's name. I wasn't familiar with it.

These folks who get psychic 'flashes' can get it all WRONG, though, and that's the problem with publishing it. Then, there are of course those who just make it all up and foist off their fantasies on others.

It gives people who really do have psychic gifts and use them properly a very bad name. I'm not buying it, sorry.

WHERE ARE ALL THE UK people?
Posted by jsandelwood on May 30, 2009
Yes, Fire Djinn would be interesting to know! I don't think they should have put her through. Terribly unfair on the other contestants and also on Hollie - how will she cope with the backlash, which is considerable?

Should at least take the heat off Susan.
Posted by johnnycake on May 30, 2009
OK, I read the Russell Grant piece of garbage. Everyone wants a couple of bucks out of Susan, don't they. First off, as for Susan needing the help of these charlatans, Susan's a Catholic and so I doubt that she would be interested. And the lot of the are crooks, so I doubt that many of us are interested. More coffee, anyone?

Posted by IrishLatte on May 30, 2009
I am starting to get nervous the p2p site has been blocked by ITV1. Haven't been able to get it all night but ITV2 if fine. Can any one else check?
Posted by Allikat on May 30, 2009
Hey--I think the whole Hollie thing might be a set-up. I have been watching it--sorry Fire Djinn that I cannot tell at all what Simon is saying--looks like 'Sasquatch', lol--but get this:

When I watched the show live, the resolution became rather poor so I couldn't be sure--but seeing it again in HQ makes me positive, now. Hollie was shedding no tears--none. It could have all been 'pretend' crying. At least I can't see any 'real' crying at all. Did anybody else notice that?

I'm wondering if Simon didn't maybe give her some kind of cue to stop or whatever, and THAT is what he was 'saying'. Because, that is where the whole 'upset' business began.

Would they DO that though--ask Hollie to begin 'badly', knowing all along they'd let her do it again later, in order to add to the 'drama' of the show, and possibly get Hollie lots of extra votes or whatever?

I know one thing--she sang nothing at all like her audition tape indicates she can sing, either time she sang. I'm beginning to smell a rat, and I'm furious that this little girl MIGHT have been 'used' to try pulling off a fast one. Could her mother have even asked her to do it...or been in on it...

This whole BGT competition, all the problems Susan is facing, and now THIS, too--it grows more peculiar by the day and I'm actually glad it'll soon be over and everyone can nurse their wounds and get back to some 'real life'. Of course, there is still the tour, but that should present no problems; no one will be 'judged' or voted on during the tour performances.
Posted by Allikat on May 30, 2009
Oh geez--the p2p site is now blocked? Or just not broadcasting anything right now? Well, that's it for me then. It was the only way I could watch anything. I'll go try it though...
Posted by johnnycake on May 30, 2009
OK, so maybe Glenfarclas Scotch Single Malt 25 Yr and IrnBru. Was never much of a Scotch drinker. Is there a scotch from her neck of the woods?
Posted by johnnycake on May 30, 2009
Say it ain't so, Allikat.
Posted by IrishLatte on May 30, 2009
I don't think Holly was a show setup, but I think she pulled a "tantrum" to get the show to let her go again. That other little girl was way better and should have been voted in if they were going to let Holly sing off key, be that bad and then be rewarded!
Posted by johnnycake on May 30, 2009
It's so. Related to the nasty trolls? Or coincidence? Hunting now for other sources, I guess.

Posted by mdillow31 on May 30, 2009
Allikat: I don't know. I only saw the clip the 2nd time she sang from the BGT channel. But we all know that Amanda really likes children. I don't think Simon was that impressed with Holly. Simon said everything was getting through this year and I read he had never seen anything like this with Susan. I bet he has big headaches with him being over all of BGT. I did read Amanda's comments before Holly ever sang and she made the comment that she (Amanda) would like t stat a children's BGT and she wanted to be hostess of it but Simon would probabbly say it was his idea and she wouldn't get to do it. But, i think BGT set that press thing up on Susan to get big ratings today.

Also, seen news reports on YouTube, the companies didn't set it up right and no one is making any money off all of Susan's YouTubes and they are working on that to make money. It is always money and ratings no matter what.

I just woke up here in Illinois. I also posted to Piers web blog on defence of Susan. She definitely has a lot of support. I just hope the British do not put her down because she has a lot of fans in the US and elsewhere. Has anyone seen any update on that poll where she was holding at 51%?
Posted by dustycajungirl on May 30, 2009
Please vote for Susan On my Behalf From USA

ask a UK friend, dustycajungirl, pray and send your love, but don't call from outside UK.
Posted by Sueandpebbles on May 30, 2009
dustycajungirl if you mean can you phone a vote in from the USA - no you can't.

However I will be voting like mad in the hour we have tonight so consider that one of those will be on your behalf.

Wouldn't that be fantastic!!!! 1/2 the day!!! Just for us!!! AND SUSAN OF COURSE!!!!

Hi Sue&pebbles!!! How are things going over there?? Have you heard any new NEWS????
Posted by NarnianGirl on May 30, 2009
Please do not post what some psychics say - the Bible is very clear on that we're not to consult 'divinating spirits' and mediums, but the Creator of Heaven and Earth. He brings the lying spirits of the psychics and mediums to shame!!

Let us keep on praying for Susan's well-being, and for God's good plan to come to pass. She is special & loved & God has raised her up for a time like this, but she needs prayers and support like any of us for the days ahead.
Posted by Allikat on May 30, 2009
Nope. The p2p channel has taken down iTV1. The stupid iTV site won't even let me play any of its videos or shows LATER, in either IE6 or Firefox. Always tells me there are 'technical difficulties' rather than I can't watch anything on it outside the UK.

So--I can just sleep through the show, rather than waste time during it wondering what is going on. I'll read about the results tomorrow night or Sunday. I HATE THIS! But why am I not surprised somehow...

Oh, I do agree that Natalie was way better than Hollie. I'm sure that BGT wanted ONE of them on the show. Trying to remember--wasn't Natalie on the first show? Since Susan won, they put Diversity through--if Susan hadn't won the popular vote that night, I think Natalie might have been put on rather than Susan!

But how could Hollie 'pulling a tantrum' even make the judges allow her to sing again later? It really did look as though whatever Simon said got her to stop...when she could have kept right on going the first time.

Posted by DannyMac on May 30, 2009
Beloved Fellow Susan Supporters, the start of the last few hours. I'm in such a state, I feel I will fly to pieces before it is over. Kalua, don't know where you got the info about what Demi and Elaine Paige told Susan, but that is great. She needed that support from people she admires. Ryan, can you tell us if Susan got the e-mails we sent to your address for her? Paul, or anybody, do we know that she has received the card and messsages and any reaction? Every time I feel myself getting too wrought up, I just send more love thoughts out to Susan and then say, "please, please let this happen for Susan. This afternoon(in our time), while it's going on, though I have never go in for envisioning, I shall be envisioning all of us holding hands in a circle of love around Lady Susan.

OH my!! No more ITV1! Please. Is there a way to watch the Final here at the Fan-site? Any suggestions? *getting desperate*
Posted by tweek on May 30, 2009
You are funny! Your Awesome. I was up all nite worrying about Susan. It's 4:37 a.m. here in the Chicago area. I keep thinking, and thinking Susan will be outstanding today but she has had too much pressure. But, once Susan starts to sing she forgets about everything else around her. I do believe if she had not fallen in practice before the semi she would have come out stronger. Going first, may help her she hated all the fuss by the makeup artists. Does anyone know what she is singing yet?
Posted by IrishLatte on May 30, 2009
Allikat, I'm not sure it was Simon or if she lost sight of her mom in the audience. If I can't get to see the show today, it might be just as well than watch what type of meltdown that poor child will have today. I don't think 24 hours or less is enough time for her to recoup and perform well.

Did the p2p site say they had taken down iTV1?
Posted by tweek on May 30, 2009
Someone better give us the link to Justin TV as well, just in case.

I think Holly is spoiled. I could be wrong but some child stars can't deal with this. We all know what Hollywood has done to child stars. Several lives have ben destroyed because of it.

Gotta ZZZZZZZZZ... haven't been to bed and it is 4:45 AM. I have central and it doesn't start until 12:45 PM my time. I thought Wild Old Dan said go to page 9 and I did that and there was Justin tv. That is what I watched the live one in the semi-finals. Is that not working ??
Posted by daygo5 on May 30, 2009
I noticed that simon said something then hollie started to breakdown, I thought he had criticised her in some way causing hollie to lose concentration then the breakdown, sure would like to know what simon said.
Posted by Allikat on May 30, 2009
Look, NaminanGirl. I didn't consult any psychic, and if you are so offended that I even mentioned it--sorry, for that. Ony brought it up because of the URL posted by another member and what I saw there.

In case you didn't know, there ARE Christians in this world who just happen to have a few little psychic gifts. Pity, that some folks think it's all 'evil' and 'the devil's work' when in truth, the ones who are honest and above-board only want to help others.

We simply leave alone what we don't wish to mess with. I don't dabble in it myself, but I also don't believe in the Bible literally on everything, either. I AM A GNOSTIC, so make something 'bad' outta that if you want to. Good night, it's been a long horrible day, and I've got nothing more to look forward to here; I'm gone.

Susan Boyle is a gift to Humanity because of her gracious humanity.

She is not an angel and I've never heard an angel sing.

She is a lass from West Lothian that has touched the world by her presence. She is a gift to us all when we most needed it.

She is not a "marketable commodity" or a "brand".

Susan Boyle is a gracious Lady with a lovely voice.

Humanity owes her a debt of gratitude.

Rejoice Susan ... be happy and be fulfilled sweet Scottish Lass.

All my Best

Dear fans around the world. I am very proud to be registered as one of Susan's fan in this fanfare site. You all are mighty good,united, stay strong, support and cooperate standing side by side with Susan Boyle when she was down. She must be very proud of you all. With all the encouragement fom us and all round support, I am sure she definitely is on fire tonight and will blow away and shock the 3 judges and rock the audience again including the voters of UK. Make the bullies, media, Lily Allen eat their words. Shame on Lily Allen, not supporting her own countrywomen. She is Jealous of Susan's global fame.From my angle I see the line up. There isnt any threat to Susan Boyle. She has Demi Moore and her husband there in the studio live to root for her. Elaine Paige had already sent words of encouragement to her. Susan has millions of supporters compared to all her other competitors they dont even come up to 10 million. All these will inspire her to knock out all the opponents and nail the song!.As for Hollie I felt it is rather unfair to allow her to restart again in the last semi final 5. Half way she sang she cuccumb to pressure. She saw Simon said somthing, then immediately she bit all her fingers and started to stop and cry. If in the final they allow her to restart again the judges play double standard and should be protested. There isnt any serious threat by Shaheen either. I am very excited to watch the live TV on my pc tonight esp when it is Susan's turn. Let's all pray for her to do well. But am confident she will win BGT 2009. Till then will talk again to you all. Take care. Love and best regards. Go Susan Go!!!!

I love your unwavering self confidence which so many lack in themselves. Give em a bolt of heaven and hell girl. Trust in yourself, give God the credit and carry on like the trooper you are. Give them one more final belt to slay the nay sayers and you'll be fine. Belt them across the chops and just slay your audience to tears as you've done so far. Good luck angel. Your heavenly voice is the best medicine. Love ya's.

Susan Boyle falters, clutches stomach, and sings on

by Chris Matyszczyk

After exposing so much reality, who could be surprised that she began with a false note?

Susan Boyle, the singer who entered the world's consciousness and was given a very large apartment there, all because of YouTube, stepped onstage for her second performance in "Britain's Got Talent" to expectations that exceeded anything she could possibly deliver.

Her hair was darker (though still pleasantly wild), her eyebrows still brooding, and her dress a little more expensive.

Her voice, though, faltered under the lights of a billion eyeballs.

The first notes of "Memory" from the musical "Cats" weren't ones that Andrew Lloyd Webber had put there.

But a stoicism built from the bricks of a thousand days of damp, dark Scottish existence and a life experience of being bullied, teased, and tormented for her supposed disabilities, was her lifeboat.

She clutched her stomach twice, almost as if her diaphragm was a malfunctioning bagpipe bag.

She gave it a couple of squeezes and any twitchy bats that might have happened to have taken temporary residence in the bag fluttered away, leaving her voice to regain its strength.

Was it as good a performance as her "I Dreamed A Dream" from the first show? No. Her life didn't depend on this one. Neither did we. In fact, uncertain notes crept back in near the end like recurring doubts.

It didn't matter. Because now the world has embraced her being far more than her singing.

The judges all gave her a standing ovation, as if they had caught the wrong flight and had been sent back in time to a party convention in Brezhnev's USSR. The voters made her their first choice for a place in next week's final, because not doing so would have denied all their honest instincts.

The rest of us sat there and began to realize that by embracing her so absolutely, by bathing in her story so totally, we may already be losing her. In tiny steps, she's becoming a professional. And we will look upon her differently, like a child who suddenly gets her own money, buys her own dresses and may, oh God, get her tongue pierced.

The first cut was the deepest. Now we can enjoy, we can admire, we can relive.

But it may never be the same again.

Posted by Dusky on May 30, 2009
Posted by daygo5; Y're absolutely right. Simon criticized this howling brat and she broke down. He should have waited until the end, thus giving this spoiled brat a kick out. The worst part of it is that when she was refused a second try, she screamed and and kinda stamped her feet on the floor!!! The judges accepted this capricious behavior??? Amazing indeed. Well, SUSAN OUR SWEETHEART OF ALL TIMES, just drown them all with your sensational voice. We need only one Susan, that's SUSAN BOYLE. Please vote for Susan on my behalf please. I wonder what PEBBLES is thinking of her "MOM" and all the attention the world is pouring on these two!
Posted by NarnianGirl on May 30, 2009
It's still a couple of hours, so there is time to find a link that works *I hope*. It would be great to have that link posted here on the front page before the Finale begins - so please, paul or someone who finds the channel, be so kind and share with us tonight..!

I have never picked up the phone and voted for anyone before, not ever. Have never watched this show either. The only time I watched it was for your semi final and will watch tonight. Have not a clue what the other acts. It really doesn't matter whether you win or lose this competition, in the hearts of millions around the world you have won, no matter the outcome.

Posted by Lovin' Every Minute! on May 30, 2009
Got the coffee, and a NEWS FLASH - - there is hope for humanity, thanks to Susan Boyle!!

Picked up my daughter & friend from an 8th-grade social last night. Susan's 'Memory' was playing in the car. Friend gets in, exclaims, "Is that SUSAN BOYLE?!?!?!" and the two of them fall all over themselves about how awesome Susan is. Friend also has Susan on her iPod. B/c they're 13 and I'm not, I automatically assume they're pulling my leg. But to make a long story short - they're totally serious. After determining that many of their adjectives mean that they in fact LIKE her ('She's sick /nasty' - HUH? Allow me to translate, I speak American Teen Girl - that means 'Exceptionally Good'), they like her because she's awesome, BGT is finally about talent, Susan's not an airbrushed, Botoxed bimbo. (This from my daughter the cheerleader, & her friend who could just as easily be a cheerleader.) So - there is hope for humanity after all!!!!!
Posted by LucyB on May 30, 2009
6:36, yep, there a BGT rerun on ITV1 running at the moment! There is a HUGE soccer match before the Finals, and I cannot BELIEVE that management at ITV would want to reduce their total audience by blocking the signal to the world---it just gives them that much more of the universal market share!!

Susan you are an inspiration. I know what it's like to feel like the world is looking at you - to feel like every move you make is being judged. You are a wonderful special person and you can let go of all that anyone thinks - let it all away - and just enjoy being *you* and doing what you do so absolutely beautifully.

Susan Boyle has brought her shinning light into the world and I am so grateful.It is important for so many tonight that she does win,but you are already a winner of hearts of minds and souls not just where you live but in the world.A huge star in the US and who knows what might happen after tonight.There are many who will buy any album you release because,in this world full of recession and negativity,you are bringing hope and belief to many.The fact you are a normal citizen with innonence in mind and body instills hope inside all of us who want you to be this success.Even if you don't win the public vote continue to believe and trust in your abilities which are so profound and glorious.Success will be yours and thank you for spreading your light into this world even in this time of great difficulty in the world. CLIMB EVERY MOUNTAIN SUSAN UNTIL YOU FIND YOUR DREAM.

Susan we love you

The paper in Toronoto, says Susan might lose. Also states if she does good today, she will likely win. The bookies have still got Susan ahead for whatevr that's worth. Shaeen did not get the public vote when he was in the semi. I believe the votes are going to be immensely split up today and that may give Susan an edge.

DannyMac, I'm with you. And I cannot understand it. Have it all on the iPod, starting with the 1984 competition tunes, and am NOT getting tired of it. It's been lodged in my cranium from the moment I saw the audition, and I still can't explain why.

YourAwesome, but do we want to be cured? Lovin'Every Minute, but we are in good company, aren't we?

I am looking forward to after the finals, when Susan can get on with recording or whatever she chooses, hopefully being given a chance to rest and get over all this , and then we will still be here supporting her but without this excruciating stress of worrying about her, not about winning, but about how she is. I just want her to be happy and feel good.

Today's song - anyone have any idea? Anything confirmed? I Dreamed A Dream?

Occurred to me last night (when aforementioned 13-year-olds were just about falling all over themselves to Cry Me A River in the car) that that would be a good pick. Dedicate it to the media, & shoot dagger eyes at Piers.

Just so you know ITV1 is up this AM here in Chicago, IL. Hopefully, it will stay up.

Blackburn has a street party going on today and they will be watching BGT on big screen TV's in a couple places. That's probably why the site manager did not put up the chat room today.

Also, there was an interview on Scotish TV with the site manager on the Susan Boyle website yesterday. Did anyone in Scotland, see that!
Posted by johnnycake on May 30, 2009
Allikat, I had the same thought about Hollie's performance. Sometimes it looks more like monkey business than show business. A restart and song change for Shaheen, and a do over for Hollie while excellent contestants like the kid drummer and Ben & Becky get eliminated doesn't make sense.
Posted by tweek on May 30, 2009
Lovin Every Min, I think your note about Cry Me A River is good. Holly was not the only one crying in Semi Finals, Saheen was is tears til the Judges gave him a place in the Finals.

Susan is in a class all by herself. I'm not impressed with the kiddy pagent on parade and the goofy acts . Susan is the only one who needs protection. She is a global sensation! I have no doubt she will win!
Posted by YourAwesome on May 30, 2009
Thanks for the update tweek...Yes Patricia...SUSAN WILL ROCK THAT AUDIENCE!! :)
Posted by Lovin' Every Minute! on May 30, 2009
I think she's going to knock 'em dead. She has to go in with the attitide that she's got nothing to lose - she's already got it all already - the $$ is coming her way, as is the eventual performance before the Queen - all but the bragging rights of winning. And it is NOT worth stressing to the high heavens over THAT, to the point where you risk flubbing it. If she's cool, relaxed, and belts it out as we know she can, she will win it hands down.

I love the idea of our having a special name for our group here, I will soon be getting off for a while to let Linda have some computer time since I will be taking it over this afternoon. I would sure like to see anything that is or has been in the media about our group. I'm glad if we are getting some publicity, not for us, but to show how Susan is loved and supported. Right now I am feeling like I throw up from stress.

Susan I am supporting you from South Wales, UK. Please remember that you do have ample fans in the UK as well from the rest of the world. You have made me so happy these last weeks since your audition when you shut the judges up! So remember that first audition and how amazing you really are. I have got my mobile charged up ready and I know you can knock them dead. I'm praying for you and I know you can do it and I have faith that the votes will be in your favour. Keep up your spirits we will be with you!

Posted by Bohemian Spirit on May 30, 2009
Good morning, all. It's 7 a.m. in Minne-SOH-dah :-D and I've been home from work for about an hour. I should be getting some sleep before the finals begin--if we'll be able to view them, here in the States--but hey, guess what, I am sitting at the COMPUTER reading everything that happened on this blog while I was at work!

*SFX: gasps of surprise from fellow SuBoFans*

@ Lovin' Every Minute - LMAO about the teen thing! My son, who is now 22 and in college, picked up the expression "sick" and was using it constantly when I visited him for Christmas '07: "That's sick" = "That's awesome/cool/groovy/far-out" for the current generation.

When my son and his friends were in high school, the expression was "tight." It was very strange hearing them say, "That's tight" and "That'd be tight," when I was in the midst of reading Hemingway and other lost-generation writers using "tight" to mean "rip-roaring drunk." :-D Hopefully that's not what they were doing in high school... but who am I kidding? *sigh*

@ everyone re: the Hollie thing - I viewed the video last night, and as an experienced parent, I know fake-tantrum manipulation when I see it. I won't claim infallibility, but I watched the video expecting to see a genuine, emotionally distraught collapse, and instead it sure looked to me like it was VERY calculated and controlled, like the kid that's watching to see if the fussing is achieving the desired effect or if said kid "needs" to ramp it up a few notches to get the adults to cave in.

I wouldn't spank, as one person suggested; I would just respond by simply refusing to give the would-be manipulator what s/he wants. Doesn't take long to break the tantrum habit once the kid realizes that tantrums are the surest way to guarantee NOT getting what the kid wants!

On the religion thing - We have people from many religious backgrounds here, and no religions at all, each expressing our good wishes and good faith according to our own beliefs and backgrounds. As long as we respect each other, I see no reason to "censor" ourselves, and I think it would be sad and less rich discussion if we did so. I don't agree with every particular way in which every single person expresses their faith, but I can still understand and honor the HEART behind it, even if another person expresses their heart in a way different from how I express mine.

Peace. Love. Compassion. And most important of all... GO, SUSAN, GO!!!!!

(Sorry if that was too long a post. Whew.)

Here is Hollie's video.

Did they start a precedent by doing this? Was it fair to the others? And where were the tears?

The kids need to have a separate venue from the adults. They didn't let Susan start over, but she nailed it anyway. Susan Boyle should win the whole thing - she's the best. Please, UK, do the right thing tonight. VOTE FOR SUSAN BOYLE. PLEASE. FOR THE MILLIONS OF USA FANS, VOTE FOR SUSAN.
Posted by lexie320 on May 30, 2009
To me little Hollie looks like a child who is pushed by her parents. Children that age are too young to participate to contests where it is mostly adults. Furthermore oftentimes these children are pushed so hard by their parents that their life at home is miserable. To me it is abuse and therefore there should be rules in the country that minimum age is required to participate to such competition. Let children live a normal child life.
Posted by YeahSusan on May 30, 2009
Susan, if wishes could make dreams come true, you would win for sure. Millions of your fans are surrounding you with love and encouragement. We ALL admire and support you Susan. Do your best tonight. Whether you win or not, we will be there for you always! From canada
Posted by AmazinglyCritical on May 30, 2009
I know lastnight I said that was my last post until after the performance but what can I say, I'm just too excited. Glad the ITV link works. 4 hours and 19 minutes from now the show starts. I'm still thinking she'll sing I dreamed a dream but not until the end of the show after the winner (Susan) is announced. I think she's going to finish her story with My Heart Will Go On for her mum. I think she could nail it because she'll sing it with so much emotion.
Posted by JJ :) on May 30, 2009
Aww gee!! I only got a couple hours sleep last night ;/ I guess U all did too. Any word on what Susan sang n her last show? I bet we're all going cooCoo. I can't stay long, just checkin n, I have a lot of work I HAVE 2 get done B4 I can get back n time 4 the BGT news on the winner.

Posted by Neil37 on May 30, 2009
I dont see the dance acts in the final as a serious threat to Susan as the number that like that sort of thing and likely to vote will be spread thin with the number of dance themed acts in the final. Cute kids dont win these things anymore that happen in the 1970s shows and been cute kids before in previous two finals and not won. I see the biggest threat being Shaun Smith hes a good looking young guy and the teenage girls will vote for him. These voters are the biggest treat they wont like Susan (teenagers are completely shallow about looks and mostly ageist as we all know) or the sort of songs she sings but they love voting on things like this in big numbers.
Posted by callingmissboyle on May 30, 2009
Someone said something about religions and the part played in all this. Susan obviously had the support of religious people in the beginning with all the saintly praise she was getting in those early days. I sense that this has ebbed because this "angel" has shown her capacity for swearing. Well, can I ask these people to once again support and vote for Susan tonight because their hero Jesus also lost his cool? He cursed and condemned moneychangers (just like Susan did) so there is even more reason to support Susan. Christianity by nature should aim for courage not compliance. There are lots of people getting into trouble nowadays for fighting the good fight but they aren't in the public eye so we can't make anything of it. I'm not comparing Susan to Jesus... I'm just saying to the religious out there, you don't get to heaven for useless things like not swearing your whole life. Heaven has far higher entrance criteria than that. Courage is one of them.
Posted by JJ :) on May 30, 2009
I just got a message from my friend in England, here it is - "I will certainly let you know how Susan Boyle does tonight JJ but I think she has got quite a lot of opposition. There will be some good acts but also some that I don't think anything of. I really don't know why she has had trouble. I think she has been heckled by some people but not sure who and she retaliated. I think it is all very tense and has got to some of them. A little girl, 10 years old, broke down on stage last night but they let her have another try and she got through to tonights final. She has a very sweet voice but I don't think she is good enough to win unless she gets sympathy votes. I think the pressure is terrific on all of them."
Posted by daygo5 on May 30, 2009
the only way i can see susan not winning is for her to completly bosh it, or sympathy voting ie hollie, that was a put on or it was fixed for her not to win. she is the best act in all of them and remember scotland will vote for her because they are very patriotic and look after there own.
Posted by Nancee on May 30, 2009
Seems we don't need a chat room, since the comments site has been hijacked by a few fans that can't stop - Their brains and finger are on autopilot! They have tried to turn this into a chat room. Also, I see the rumor mongers have their tabloid hats back on If anyone from outside could monitor this site, I'd hate to here what they would say about some of the loony's here .. THANK GOD THAT SUSAN DOESN'T HAVE A PC AND HAVE TO BE EXPOSED TO ALL THIS TABLOID POSTURING AND SILLY CHATTING THAT HAS TAKEN OVER. Remember we are here for SUSAN, and that's what we should be concentrating on. BELIEVE!

Howdy Pards,

Well nine acts are gonna be hurt tonight...it's the nature of the beast. Are they worthless? Of course not. Some of them are extremely talented indeed.

All have wonderful potential for the future.

All of us, here, are rabid Susan Boyle fans for many, many different reasons. The fact remains however that she has touched the hearts of hundreds of millions of us. Never before has such a thing happend on this scale...never.

For over a month, now, we have been celebrating this wonderful lady...a huge number of us have gathered here on her fan's site...because we wanted to learn all we could about Susan...and because all of us felt the same thing, something wonderful, something magical...something we have never felt before when we heard her sing. It brought folks together from all round the world in celebration.

I believe Susan is going to win today and win big.

This wonderful fairy tale is going to have a happy ending...there is no doubt. God Bless Lady Susan and God Bless the 19,000 plus who gathered here in celebration of this wonderful lady.

Adios for now. Talk to ya on down the trail.

Wild Ol' Dan

Susan was moved up and has done her song -- The Dream Song. BGT gave her a very wonderful description and all the judges said she was terrific (though once the Diversity people danced, all the judges turned and said hat Diversity or Flawless should win. They are going to do the saxaphone now. -- Susan was excellent, but I couldn't see her lucky ring. Anyone see it? Pray. I still think Susan will win. They have split the vote between all of these dancers, etc., that Susans numbers will probably overwhelm them and give it to her. Pray, Pray, Pray!!!!

Who do we send the money too for the phone
