Joe smashed it! He certainly did deserve to win this year’s X Factor. Yesterday I blogged (as he blew me away) with ‘Sorry seems the hardest word’. Yes, in Cheryl Cole’s words ‘He smashed it!’
I then caught snatches of Piers Morgan presenting Susan Boyle’s journey from her first audition on Britain’s Got Talent, with memorable shots of the judges faces when she started to sing ‘ I dreamed a dream’ to conquer the American fans and back again to her million selling hit Album. Not bad hey, during a time of recession with ‘no hopers’ hogging headlines with the Bankers, MP expenses and swine flu spreading fear like a cancer throughout the world? Then this morning I log on to read Monday’s blogs and yes even here, we have our ‘no hopers’ hogging the FP with what now has become a ‘vomit machine!!’
Well Susan – I am not a huge fan but I sure do admire your guts and determination to ‘Smash it’ and conquer the world with your humble beginnings to the splendour of stardom. How very timely is this message during this Christmas time of Hope to ‘Dream the Dream’.
You bet ‘Wild horses wouldn’t drag me away’ nor millions of other viewers it seems.
What’s your favourite dream story of 2009?
NB Footnote
My thanks to Mark Lee for pointing out my duplication – mid travels across rural South Wales and the correction of Susan Boyles first audition was Britain’s Got Talent. Britain sure does have talent. We produce so many great individuals and indeed our highly disciplined armed forces ![]()
