SuBo On The View: O Hooooooooly Shit!
In case you missed it, here's the delicate teddy bear with the voice of a unicorn angel cracking and choking like Tommy Girl at his wedding on The View this morning. Susan Boyle started to gracefully coo out cloudy musical notes of magic that felt snowflakes softly hitting my ear drums and then it happened....
One of Pebbles' hairballs inched up SuBo's wind pipe and it brought the melodic winter magic to an end! SuBo didn't know she was live, because she asked if she could start over again. And that was Tasmanian Sherri and Igor Goldberg's cue to stumble through the smoke and save the day. Eh. That shit happens.
But you know, it might not have happened if there wasn't all that damn smoke all over the place! Was it really necessary for SuBo to perform from inside one of Meat Loaf's videos? I kept waiting to see a boat slowly gliding towards me in the distance with the Phantom of the Opera at the helm.
But seriously, SuBo should've just turned around, hocked that bitch ass frog up, spit into the smoke, turned back around and picked up at the next lyric.
SuBo later did it over for the West Coast without a crack or choke:


I don't know what all the fuss is about over this woman anymore. She always looks like a disgruntled frog with a hugely fat neck these days.
Subo is very talented but someone had it right.
IT WAS THE FOG! For real. That stuff makes people choke. I've even seen people sitting in the front row of a theatre start to cough uncontrollable from it. Subo is a true talent and I want her Christmas album. Good for her. She stopped cause she did not want to give a poor show. This would never happen to Madonna- The record would just keep playing and playing!
Who burped?
Well I would rather see that than some lipsynched bullshit. She recovered well and so what? She does have a beautiful voice.
I think you guys are right about her lack of training destroying her voice. Even Celine Dion went through this. After singing as a youngin' her voice was shot so she had professional training before she became huge.
Anyone that works in this busıness knows that whatever happens on stage you keep it moving.
We have all seen Beyonce/J-Lo, et cetera fall on their ass lıve, but what dıd they do?
They picked their thick asses up and kept on moving.
And even tho SuBo is more singer than entertainer, she should still know better than this. Celine would never do no shit like that!
SuBo is not cut out for this shit. She needs to be doing a tour ın psych wards!

I sang in a band for some 9-10 years and I can't count the number of time something has happened live were you have to just keep going. You basically do what MK said ( shy of actually spitting...depending on where you were playing I guess lol) you turn your head, clear your throat, a goofy look will usually make people laugh and you jump back in as fast as you can. People understand you can't always be perfect..no biggie.
How in the fuck could she NOT know they were live by the way?
Her voice in the second wasn't stunningly beautiful but it was fairly strong. She's better than this, isn't she? My daughter's dance school put on the most hideous performance of Cats, it was completely cringeworthy until this young girl who is with the local opera company came out and sang whatever that song is from Cats that is quite pretty and it was so beautiful and flawless that I cried (don't laugh!).
God bless her! She was probably really upset about it too. I don't think she'd like to let people down. But she handled it well. I LOVE how she stuck to her guns and didn't keep singing. I'm sure the View peeps would have loved her to keep messing up! Bad TV is good for ratings!
Go Susie, you rock gal!

Maybe she should just sing her live shows with her back facing the audience and a big picture of her cats in front of her

Good call gen18. Perfect picture of exactly what Subo needs. Like monks used to sing behind a scrim. If she continues she should have lessons and work in a studio or very small venue. The biggest thing sensitive people need is secluded care away from the maddening crowd. It is dreadful what happened pushing her from her womb, but totally expected of the rapacious greed in the world.
Sorry preachy but everybody really should leave Subo alone.
At first when she started singing I thought she was lip syncing and then she stumbled. A pro would have trudged on and she will learn that she has to keep going... or maybe not cause Susan beats to her own drummer.

We HEART Susan!

Mrs Pat!!!!! I've never heard you say anything nice about anyone! Is this a sign of the apocalypse? I like her too. It's a rags to riches story with a bittersweet twist. I don't like seeing her struggle like she did on The View.

That's what Judy Garland would have done - and she did, many times!
We HEART Susan!
I was in a commercial solo voice class last spring and there were two older ladies (late sixties) and both had these amazing voices. They weren't technically perfect like Subo is trying to be but they had so much soul. One of them sounded a lot like Nina Simone and they both made me tear up a few times. I'm sorry, but I don't feel anything when I hear Subo sing. :/
This was not her fault, it was that damn fog! And we all know by now that Boyle is one brick short of a full load. Why then do these a-holes insist on getting her into situations that she's obviously not equipped to handle? She's a human being, for for Christ's sake, not a jukebox. This is the TV version of schoolyard pranks kids play on that tiny little boy with the glasses. Stuff like this pisses me off.

Who are you calling silly cow?
I wonder if she smokes?

I don't know, just a guess, but is it possible that since she never went through any sort of formal training, she's ruined her voice?
*********
That might be it. I remember she sounded great when I heard her audition but now she sounds like any other relatively good singer at a choir. Also, she's doing interviews and possibly singing way more than she used to.
Awww it's so sweet that SuBo named her CD after Paula Abdul!♥♥♥♥♥

I enjoy opera and have heard about the old pros saying these younger ones who sing arias/roles too difficult for them ruin their voices over time. Something about peaking too early?
Anyway, I do feel bad for her.
PS - Sherri is ridiculous. They should have left it up to Whoopi, but I really hate The View anyway.
Maybe she should just sing her live shows with her back facing the audience and a big picture of her cats in front of her
I hate everyone....equally of course
I'm totally LOLing like a maniac at the sound that came out of Sherry's at 1;45. Replaying it over and over in my head. She sounds like Barney from The Simpson's!
i feel sorry for subo..she is obviously has some emotional issues...and i cant believe sherri sheperd with a straight fuckin face...told her "voice of an angel"....bitch pleaseeeeeeeeeee

"low self esteem is a bitch"...
SuBo looks EXACTLY like my spinster aunt, who swears she's not a lesbian (I asked her one night drunk because that's what we all thought), yet, entered a nunnery at 20, came out of it at 22 and has never had a boyfriend.
She hangs around with alot of gay guys, though.
She's 75. I guess coming out in those days was not a wise thing to do.
She spends like, all her free time in church.
I made some comment when I got my dog that I wanted a boy dog because I was a girl, and she got all annoyed and was like, what, because I have a girl dog, that makes me a LESBIAN!!!!
I wanted to say, no, not the dog, but....:)

Why did SuBo look really put off by Whoopi and Sherri?? She looked more than uncomfortable; she looked slightly disgusted, imo.
Whatever unseemly noise was made, it had to be Sherri and her atomic boobage. Biiiitch.
Could Bozo my cat top that? Fuck yeah!

I can't stand The View and those clacking hens. Poor Susan, I don't know why she still tries. Cripbabe is right - she needs more meds!
Putting Susan on live t.v. is just asking for a fuck-up. They were probably hoping something weird would happen for ratings.
As others have said, she should just record in the studio and then hang out at home with her cats. Live performing is just not her thing. She probably had close to a nervous breakdown after the show.

There's much more merit in singing live and eventually screwing up than in lip synching and giving a perfect performance.
So true. Give me live and raw. The current (?) New Yorker has a great piece on Keith Moon's drumming. The writer pointed out how (a) all his live shows were different and (b) his recorded drumming had plenty of flubs in it--stuff they'd "fix" now--but still sounds great.
I give her credit for singing live. I also like the fact that she doesn't give a polished interview. She just who she is...

I have to agree. There's much more merit in singing live and eventually screwing up than in lip synching and giving a perfect performance.
I feel sorry for her
Sherry made that burping sound. It's called a glottal fry and we use it when were trying to think of what to say. Like when we say :uhm and say it quietly.

Just statin' the obvious here, but she was never ever cut out for any sort of fame. She really should just retire to a little cottage in Scotland with some cats, or something.

I still like Subo. Can't hate on a crazy cat lady. Anyway, I love a little loogy in my Christmas music.
WTF there was more smoke than an 80's rock concert... she's awesome
Poor thing. Why are they making her perform like that? She's not a trained professional and she has some kind of disorder besides.
Leave SuBo alone!
Nothing says Christmas like Chestica Simpson singing "I'll be a whore for Christmas"...brings tears to my eyes...the tree is almost lit in NYC!!
Looks like a crackwhore to me.
They always ruin the fun for us here on the west coast. We wanna see the mess too! Thanks MK!

I can't understand a damn word this woman says when she speaks.
She's on the tree lighting ceremony in NYC and I can't understand a word when she sings!!
Poor Subo. At least she barely said anything after and seemed to just let it go. Shit happens, and I hope it doesn't discourage her.
I'd hit it.

I'm trying to think which I find more boring - The View or Susan Boyle?
************************************************
You and me both..Zzzzzzzzzzz
Are you sure this is Susan Boyle? I think John Lithgow from The World According To Garp hijacked The View this morning.
SuBo aint a looker, but I love her singing voice, and I would buy her Xma$ CD.

OH,fuck yeah!!!
seriously, she is no better than the soprano soloist our church hires on Christmas Sunday.

You smell like cheap weed and applesauce.

Mrs. Garrett did a better version on the Facts Of Life's Christmas episode when they all sang at a men's prison.
I know nothing about this lady. But I bet her fans don't care she screwed up. If anything they might like her more for it. They might even say it is proof she sings live. How many people do that these days? Anyways life is strange.
PS: I hate The View
