Susan Boyle Hype Revitalizes 10-Year-Old Cover
Posted Fri Apr 17, 2009 12:31pm PDT by Billy Johnson, Jr. in Video Ga Ga
The song title "Cry Me A River" brings Justin Timberlake to mind for Generation Y. But that is likely to change thanks to Susan Boyle, the Scottish singing sensation whose Britain's Got Talent appearance wooed millions of broadcast and online viewers.

Boyle's moving rendition of "Cry Me A River" was uploaded to YouTube Thursday night, sparking further interest and frenzy over the extremely talented singer.
Boyle's "Cry Me A River" is a remake of the blues standard, not Timberlake's pop ballad. Boyle's track went virtually unnoticed when it was independently released 10 years ago on a charity CD reported Times Online. The Whitburn Community Council in West Lothian only pressed 1,000 copies of The Millennium Celebration compilation.

IMO, She could use a smidge of training, but otherwise, she is perfect.


If you like this song, Combustible Edison did a very good cover of this tune awhile back.
