I can't even tell you how many times I've listened to that youtube since Tuesday when I first heard of it. A beautiful voice, an undying spirit realizing her dream. I hope she finds all her dreams coming true.

hornswoggled: Rarely are great female singers stunningly attractive, excluding Sarah Vaughn or Linda Ronstadt. The Brit singing in that video has a great natural vibrato, much like Ronstadt's.

Whether they be from the Jazz era (Ella Fitzgerald, Dinah Washington, Billie Holiday), the rock/folk era (Joan Armatrading, Chaka Kahn) or even pop/new wave/dance era (Alison Moyet, Weather Girls/Two Tons of Fun), many of the great women singers have been "heavy"; being large is probably what gives them the lung power to belt out the songs. Since MTV came along, great singers with large waistlines get ignored in favour of T&A no-talents with large bustlines. Does anyone honestly believe Aretha Franklin would get a record contract if she came along in 2009?

I listen to singers for their music, not to look at their pictures and drool (or something more prurient), and I have no patience for mediocre "talent" like Mariah Carey or Bouncy Beyonce.

Don't forget Ethel Merman in the more talent than looks dept. or Madonna in the other column.

I thought the same thing. I wonder is she only built up the confidence recently to share it.
