Susan Boyle Visits Japan
Japan gets more than its fair share of foreign celebrity visitors, especially when compared to its other Asian neighbors. This could be due to the reason that other nationals are already enamored with Japan and its culture to begin with. It could also be because the Japanese people appreciate artists and performers from other countries. Whatever the reason, we can always expect something big happening in this country, entertainment wise.
This week, it’s Susan Boyle who’s visiting Japan. She is there to be part of a TV show. Mind you, this is no ordinary TV show. In fact, it has been dubbed as the best local variety show in the country. More than that, Susan Boyle’s appearance in the show will be broadcast live all over the country on New Year’s Eve.
If you thought that Susan Boyle’s fame is limited to the western world, then you are mistaken. The Scottish singer was greeted at the airport by countless fans, all of the clamoring for a song right then and there. She declined, however, saying that they would have to wait for the show to be aired to see and hear her perform. According to the grapevine, she will be singing I Dreamed a Dream, the song which propelled her to worldwide fame.
Susan Boyle, the church volunteer, may not have won Britain’s Got Talent; no one can deny, however, that she has surpassed other contestants. And you know what? The Japanese are quite happy to be part of her success. I wish I had that show on my cable TV. It would be interesting to watch, don’t you think?

The bonus track “Wings To Fly” in the Japanese edition album is great!
I bet she’d probably sing that as well since it’s originally based from a Japanese song.
Well a few months back I install a new satellite dish so that I could receive Japanese TV and gues what…
yep, the show you refer to, called “KÅhaku Uta Gassen,” is being aired. Its actually on twice, once during the day which is live from Japan and then it is repeated in the evening to coincide with the new year here in the UK.
Thanks for the info!
Susan Boyle has a great voice, no doubt about that. She was my first choice in American Idol and sadly she did not make it.

I think you mean “Britain’s Got Talent”. Susan Boyle’s British.
Susan Boyle may not be a very good looking woman but she has an angelic voice. :

I have seen the performance of Susan Boyle and it is never short of excellent. Definitely one of the best voices out there. ”
