  • They didn't recognize her talent....now they'll quickly admit they are in this video I bet....

  • @Butterfly04able I bet you are right about that...now they all say..."I knew her when".

  • it looks like non of those people were paying attention -.-

  • unfortunately people look at people at face value. She had a great voice back then too but wasnt as attractive as she could have been.

  • You done Scotland proud Susan but MOST of ALL you pleased God and he honoured you and through YOU opened the eyes of our ignorant world and its people God bless you inspire me.so much.... xxx (((...

  • Has no one read the uploader comments? This is not a group of bored disparate people just waiting for Susan to hurry up and finish. This is an anniversary party for her parents, and the people are family and friends, hence the casual attitude of people just sitting around, and the videographer going around the room taking shots of people. The people do become quiet, but in a casual familar way you'd expect at a family event. And at the end, they do start clapping.

  • She sang beautifully then too, you know people just can't accept anybody for who they are, try being fat in today's world, I have more prejudice against me then an asian person. People are to judgemental.

  • Thank God for people like her. 

  • Well they all know how to have a proper knees-up in Blackburn.

  • We see she was always singing for an audience (just much smaller)... a lot of people just aren't believing that Cowell didn't know who was about to sing... they designed it well to pull at our heart strings -- it certainly helped her garner an internet audience and then some. They (Simon) just got caught for lip-syncing recently. I'm only mentioning because I went to watch Piers Morgan and she was being interviewed, and remembered the STUNT! But she can sing (just wondering about her past)

  • Maybe she was just a good singer in her youth, but thru a process of vintage her voiced improved to superb levels. Maybe it was a lot of practice, never forcing the voice, gradually tuning up for decades.

  • i bet all these guys on this video are kicking themselves now.. the looser's, Susan is brilliant!!

  • @77Auntysam

    Read the info above of MortalKILLER and you will know who these "guys" are.

    And yes Susan is brilliant!!!

  • she has and had such nice voice, why didn't someone discover her talent!

  • mmmmm..... just meant to say whose laughing now?

  • This is typical from around these part it's a small community pub and someone is singing who likes to sing! everyone is having a drink and wishing they would hurry up and finish!! little did they know she would become a global sensation well done Susan.

  • oh, wait they were going to clap at end before the vid cut off.

  • It's like because she wasn't their idea of pretty or something, they ignored her. She's singing without instruments for Christ's sake.

  • A roomful of talentless people who would have yawned at the re-emergence of Jesus.

  • I know her. Alan Penman. Motherwell.

  • pourquoi a t'il fallut attendre si longtemps pour que cette chanteuse soit reconnue ?

    c'est vraiment dommage .... mais je me demande si les spectateurs presents apprecient à sa juste valeur la voix de cette chanteuse ... ceci expliquant peut etre celà

  • @xozyje Indeed! Its taken a long time but she's here now!!!!

  • i think shes very talented and is a great singe today, but this, if you ask me, doesnt sound that good, in fact most people there look like thir trying to hold back from laughing

  • Did anyone even ask her to sing? They all look as though they're just waiting for her to hurry up and finish.

  • this doesnt really sound like anything special. I guess maybe I'm just not that impressed by her. sounds like someone singing in the shower.

  • Look how she captivates everyone! And she did it with a bad hair cut and a pilgrim's dress on! See ladies that's true beauty.

  • Vas chier Laurence Varicynes!!!!!!!

  • Why is she dressed as a pilgrim?

  • y ke esperaba para saltar a la fama..

  • The Susan Boyle/Marilyn Manson Co-Headliner Tour. The duets are to die for.

  • sorry...whats the difference here between a normal woman singing in a shower...and susan boyle???...nothing....!!!...ok­, she might have a weird vibration ...but isnt a voice a kind of...usual???...cmon!!!

  • @laurencevanryne

    i got many videos and casual recordings by the likes of Jason Becker, Jaco Pastorius, Hector Lavoe among others, real music geniuses...and yes, their performances are not as accurate or impressive as you'd probably expect, but it doesn't matter how "usual" the footage looks, if you have any musical sense at all, you realize when someone's got the soul. It's something you just feel...or you don't.

  • @laurencevanryne at least she has a talent. I am sure that you are a worthless person who feel superior by criticizing the other. At least thanks to her people like you sould understand that everybody has a chance to succeed and that there is hope for everybody. Even for looser like you :))

  • Her voice just has a very pure and natural beauty to it. I wish I could sing like that.

  • Susan you are awesome !!!

  • @JGrimshawProductions jealousy is a terrible thing

  • @JGrimshawProductions jealousy is a terrible thing,go and buy a sports car if you have such a small dick

  • and I would say yours is hanging out the middle of your forehead!

  • It breaks my heart to see how people treat her.Are people so shallow they can´t see or hear unless they are good looking.I feel sorry for them,they have a big problem

  • get yer knickers off subo your mine lol

  • Ela é um diamante bruto original diamond

  • she still looked like a 50 year old spakker even at the tender age of 25.

    Still guess shes having the last laugh now. spakkers got talent.

  • Seems like every one of them waiting to get the song done nobody is paying attention as soon as she finished everybody clap their hands right away too bad but now the whole applauded her good for her

  • "Do not dissect a rainbow. In other words, do not destroy a beautiful phenomenon by overanalyzing it."

  • I like Susan Boyle, don't get me wrong because I really do. but didn't she know any other songs but this one 25 years ago

  • SlamTheLabel and Cartoonist52 said it best. No need to add to it.

  • This is not Susan Boyle

  • @Scott2201

    This is Susan, but i can understand you, she sings different. I belive she is not lucky to sing on this boring party.

  • This is obviously fake.

  • @tonymillw YOUR obviously fake >>

  • @hitomekakera you're

  • If you would like to hear susan sing a christmas song the journey please visit meryl heasman on you tube thanks.

  • Can we be honest... without a big orchestra, lush arrangements, and powerful amplification with echo, there's nothing so rare or impressive here. Not just in the

    case of Susan Boyle, mind you, but a lot of big singing stars.

  • @defundthewar because it's not Susan Boyle, this is a fake!

  • @Scott2201 Well, the Mirror really stuck its neck out then. Do you have conclusive evidence it is either not Susan, or a counterfeit put together? You may be right, but it sure looks and sounds like what Susan would have looked and sounded like in the 80s.

    The shape of this woman's head, flat profile and facial features... it's uncanny.

  • what a party!!!

  • My guess is: this clip is fake.

  • and the crowd goes ooooh?

  • the boy at 1:24 looks like he's trying not to laugh!

  • The occasion looks like a family gathering. I saw Susan's brothers (Gerry), sisters, nieces (Joanne).

  • The consistincey of this womans talent documented in small seemingly meaningless ways absoulutely establish her as a major talent, never faltering

    in whatever circumstances. SHE IS GREAT!

  • Now that is singing, live and without music!

  • pure voice.but now she sing better.thanks for post

  • Ovaries and Sunlight

  • the audience seem so sad. As if someone has died. Are they observing Lent?

  • probably Madonna + Basia

  • Susan actually kinda sounded like Madonna in this video. Only Susan could actually sing.

  • See that statement that you made is very intresting because i also think that their voice sounds somewhat alike at time.....now as for Madonna not being able to sing.....not sure about that one! I'm an 80's boy and you just dist one of my favorite performers...lol....and now I really appreciate Susan Boyle....(strange hu?)

  • Eh, Madge can carry some notes, but she doesn't have amazing range like Susan. I liked Madge back in the 80's too, but let's face it, it ain't like she's got a voice like Aretha.

  • ok ....ok.....I'll grant you that! :-)

  • I think those sitting around her are very rude and uncaring individuals.. Kudo's for Susan, you made it girl. God Bless Susan Boyle

  • @abbscobutsna I think you're misunderstanding what's going on in the video.  Everytone is simply sitting around in silence listening to Susan sing. Even the kids are in silence listening to every word that's coming out of Susan't lips. How often does one go to parties and see the kids in complete silence like you do in this video? It's quite rare, just like Susan's amazing voice.

  • @abbscobutsna how are they being rude? they are sitting quietly and listening to her sing.thats POLITE not rude.and just cuz they arent in awe doesnt make them rude either.

  • @abbscobutsna

    As was mentioned by ourtrueworld, one has to explain a bit more.

    This is a song from Jesus Christ Superstar. These are all very religious people (Catholics).

    The Scottish or Welsh or those ways they all stop a party and someone sings. If it is mesmerizing everyone listens and enjoys. That is a sign of respect and being immersed in the music.

  • hi abbsco,

    I truly don't think they are being rude at all, they are all at the pub and are all being quiet to listen to "someone" singing at the pub and the kids are being respectful and listening too

  • @abbsocobustna That's what happens when you start to take one for granted.

  • A very strong phrase:

    I like her!

  • i think they knew she would be breaking out some day. IT just took a couple decades

  • They are all being very polite and listening and the little boy...like the rest of us are just mesmerized by her young voice.

  • I think all these people who say bad things about her are just so jealous because she made it and nobody was expecting from her, I mean really she is not that charming but she's got what many singers don't have, a bloody great voice!

  • She's spectacular. She sings these very difficult parts from Jesus Christ Super Star as it was the easiest thing, with no effords! I wish she was discovered at that time!

  • god bless her

  • I don't understand were it comes from, the massive public support. She is a world class singer, has an image that truley does stand out from the crowd, and has an unlikeable personality.

    Is it simply the fact that she is a 'normal' person who has made it big? Come on people let me know I want to understand.

  • she proves that you don't have to be drop dead gorgeous to have talent.

  • @captainclayman Most drop dead gorgeous girls are the ones lip-syncing. I actually can't think of a drop dead gorgeous girl that can sing really great.

  • she proves that looks have NOTHING to do with talent!!

  • we can see that,at 25years old,she have sweet,exactly voice in melody,sustain full.but spell no really good.now,she sing better.SUSAN,bless YOU!

  • very unextraordinary .. Id say the family tought she was a dead loss but a grand singer bless her .. THEN BLAM just when she began to slide in to middle age suddenly shes a famous concert singer .. cool shit.

  • She may not be pretty like the young pop sensations but she sure as the most angelic interior of all the people we've seen in the music industry plus her voice is spectacular breathtaking and worthy of applause and guiltiness of being so judgemental. Thats why she got so far in britains got talent and now her debut album is 1#. If we would all just see internal beauty. Anyone slagging her needs to look at themselves and see how ugly there comments are. Youtube is not your outlet for hate.

  • @SlamTheLabel yes your voice speaks the truth. Keep speaking and find your dream.

  • Jamie10014: Well, this is not you aunt! Now why don't you turn off that computer and go straighten up your room like your mommy told you!

  • Comment removed

  • AshleighxRxB: It says Susan was 25 years old when this video was done. I've heard her say she always loved singing. It might be possible that it took a little time for her to really let herself go when she was singing. I honestly believe the talent has always been there.

    Renata777777: Who are you to judge what songs she sings and who the heck cares what words she sang for JesusChrist Superstar, she was singing for her family. Susan is wonderful and gives me chills when I hear her sing.

  • Interesting. I love Susan, also, and I've said so here and elsewhere. I wish she had won Britain's Got Talent. So, considering all the truly hateful comments posted here, why did you single me out as not having a right to have an opinion?

  • "Susan is a courageous woman A blessing from above, She looks like an Angel And is filled with Gods love. She has the talent and the gift To make her dreams come true, And the voice of a Angel She wants to share with you. Susan is quite young and single God has made her that way, She lives alone with her cat, Pebbles And treasures her everyday. So when you hear Susan sing With her voice reaching the skies, Just say a little prayer for her Till tears fill your eyes"
  • it may be true, I believe on her, but when peoples call a human is on the top of talent? when he has conquest the triumph... world only accepts his talent then.

  • no, i disagree.that was so PINKxxFLOYD.

  • @Cartoonist52

    indeed you are right, she found her place under the sun....

  • @Cartoonist52 True, she is a real talent.

  • 1986 - Wow she was still a brilliant singer even then. I think she has a lovely, unique voice.

  • ofcourse u twat

  • eres la mujer mas linda del planeta senti verguenza agena cuando vi alos idiotas de britans got talent sucks jured

  • shes not half as good as she was on bgt

  • I'm surprised they didn't discover her sooner. I guess its all about the looks.

  • it's amazing!! she's so natural and looks so humble. maybe her family never truly appreciated her talent. well, look at her now! she's an awesome role model! I'M SUCH A BIG FAN SUSAN!

  • Such a great voice! So glad she's finally gotten some attention.

  • Never mind. I'm not so tech savvy.

  • Maybe it was a wake, or one of those awkard 'Susan's gonna sing again' situations and they'd had just one too many of them.

    I think she has an amazing voice, and it's wierd that we notice her more because of her 'less than perfect' looks, if she was a bit more beautiful, maybe we wouldn't have heard of her.

    No disrespect intended.

  • What a wonderful way for Susan to contribute to her parents' Golden Wedding Anniversary dinner together with the family! Surely they loved Susan so much; and now Susan Boyle is known and loved the world over!

  • that party is crackin i wish i was there.

  • Susan gets much deserved applause after the song. She is one of a kind...a beautiful angel. God bless her,

  • I agree with averygeo ! What a shame to these people ! And to think they had this lucky chance and through it out !

  • she would get done for attempted

  • Blackpoolrok ,I wonder why you are here? Is it envy or jealousy?

    It must be terrible to know that you will be only noticed under HER video? How sad that you have to offend others to have your voice heard.

    You know what?

    Go to another page and leave your shite there too. Maybe one day you'll leave enough dirt that somebody will take notice of you.

    Get a life.

  • What is wrong w the people at this party? Talking and walking around and making stupid faces. They had NOOO idea the gem that they had. No wonder it took her so long to be recognized.

  • I certainly hope that after 20 years the unappreciative dimwits acting out in this film get the opportunity to revisit just what dolts they were. An exceptionally lovely voice and a song well done.

  • I agree, but looks who's got the last laugh now! I just love her, and what a fantastic home vid. Thanks for posting mortalkiller!

  • wow lovely

  • Susan has taken the World by storm because of her amazing audition on Britains Got Talent now viewed by millions of people all over the planet.

    This old footage shows her humble life in Scotland and all her folks should be proud of her success- I hope She sings for Obama- now that would be a dream come true..

  • she sings beautifuly.

  • She is going to get £6 million

    clearly makes her far more sucessful than the people saying she's a slag, no talent and all the rest...

  • Why all the nasty comments here? Was this great technology meant to be used to attack fellow humans. Fag, slut all these words are cruel and revolting.

  • yer, Scotish of Irish stock. Great voice, still.

  • Have you listened to the voice?

  • You're an IDIOT.

  • Are you always this nasty? She might look ugly, but you must be ugly on the inside to spew out that about another person.

  • I don't really think Susan Boyle gives a fuck what you think, and it's not your place or ANYONE'S to ridicule her for doing what she loves. Why don't YOU get up on a stage and sing with people from around the world watching you, and when you do that, come and ridicule other people. And you can't say she's a slut because you don't actually know who she is. Silly person.

  • How the HELL is she a slut!? And how can that not be good!? That's an amazing voice.

    And she's definitely not ugly! Just because your opinion of OUTER beauty considers her lesser, that doesn't mean she's not the prettiest women on the inside!

    And she didn't get attention because she's on the larger side. She got attention because she has real talent that not many people can give in all modesty like she does! This women has real courage to go on a TV show at her age and I respect her greatly.

  • English people, how lucky you are to have a person with such a REAL talent !!! I hope she will win, sincerely/

  • SHES SCOTTISH.

  • fantastict

  • Her singing was fine but performers feed off the reaction of the audience and this bunch appeared to make up their minds from the beginning that they would give her a great big ho-hum and it affected her performance as she hid her personality whild still saying hey you I can sing!

  • To all the naysayers for this rendition, just try singing without musical accompaniment and see if you can have such perfect pitch as our dear Susan Boyle! She is simply amazing and so damned refreshing!!!

  • A little bit of timing problem or rushing occasionally, but it was still fantastic and beautiful. Note, no music accompanyment and that made it so hard. If she had some proper training, she could have been as good as any diva alive IMO.

    Please do not compare this with the studio recorded and audio engineered version from some great singer.

  • Does it take makeup and a bustier to get a person's voice out to the public? Why didn't someone take her by the hand and get her some showmanship lessons?

  • RUBBISH

  • Yes,

    dracula0091

    YOU ARE

    RUBBISH.

  • Its been bothering me that this video looks older than the one of Susan singing I dont know how to love him in 1984. The clothes remind me of the ones we all wore in the very early 1980s; somehow there's a bit of a 1970s feel to them. Whereas in the 1984 video, its all 1980s. I could be wrong of course. What do others think?

  • Any rumors about what song sheis going to sing in her next presentation?

  • It was good!

  • she reminds me of Patsy Cline with her perfect pitch and range...Susans' voice sends almost cosmic shivers to my soul

    Thank you Susan for your otherworldly voice

    Keep on keepin on, darlin

  • I love how the little boy comes in from the other room to listen.

  • A capella??????

  • Yes, that's singing without musical (instrumental) accompaniment.

  • ,,, very nice ... big talent ... from Slovakia
