You really should watch it, Jessica.

The main clip now has 27m+ hits, and the total of all the clips of this one song has passed 50m+ - in just under one week!! The phenomenon just keeps snowballing, especially with all the US tv coverage.

RIP Iron Man

Still can't watch George without cracking up. I think its the look of wonder on Amanda Holden's face and as she crooks her clasped fingers upwards as Susan goes for the high note...and nails it!

I've shown it to any and everybody. It never fails to get them.

A US columnist wrote this

"In our pop-minded culture so slavishly obsessed with packaging - the right face, the right clothes, the right attitudes, the right Facebook posts - the unpackaged artistic power of the unstyled, un-hip, un-kissed Ms Boyle let me feel, for the duration of one blazing showstopping ballad, the meaning of human grace.

"She pierced my defences. She reordered the measure of beauty. And I had no idea until tears sprang how desperately I need that corrective."

How true is that?

OH GOD DO I HAVE TO?  Am I being a partypooper if I don't?  It's like 'The Exorcist'... I stubbornly refused to watch that and now I feel like I'm the only person on the planet who hasn't seen it, but I'm glad I haven't.  I did however accidentally see the uncut version of Clockwork Orange when I was 14 by lying my way into a cinema with a group of friends...HMMM
Can I get a doctor's note to say I'm emotionally unfit to watch it?
