I know, I know, I know. Susan Boyle from Britain's Got Talent has been written up by pretty much every periodical and blog out there. But her rendition of I Dreamed a Dream is certainly not to be missed, much in the same way that Paul Potts' rendition of Nessun Dorna a few years back was.

I was sniffly from the moment she started singing, and just started bawling the instant she nailed that oh-so-difficult part in "as they turn your dream to shame". I used to sing this (and many other songs) while walking home from school when I was much younger, and I could only ever dream of hitting that note. She sounds so similar to the Fantine in the Original London Cast recording of Les Miserables... or possibly better!

And because I mentioned not too long ago that I preferred popping and locking over breakdancing, I thought it would be appropriate to feature another Britain's Got Talent contestant, Flawless, just to illustrate my point.
