Probably everyone has heard of Susan Boyle by now. The video of her on Britain's Got Talent is everywhere.
What fewer people might have heard of, yet, is a song she sung for a CD done for charity, released in 1999. It's a slow-paced jazz/blues tune called "Cry Me a River". You can hear it (and read about it) at The Daily Record: Exclusive: Susan Boyle's first ever song release revealed - listen to it here.
It's also available on YouTube: Susan Boyle - Cry Me A River - 1999 Recording (From The Scottish Daily Record Newspaper)
Heartbreakingly beautiful. It's astounding that the world took this long to discover her.
Here's the Wikipedia article on the song Cry Me A River. Also, here's a page with some lyrics.
