Art is what you like. If you don’t like this kind of art, then go back to the punk rockers or rappers you feel most affinity to.
That is one person’s opinion. Ignore the “man behind the curtain” and make your own decision on whether or not she is a good singer.

She doesn’t fit the mold. Beautiful voice though.
I’m glad we have intellectual-types to tell us when we dont know what we are supposed to think.
By the way, check out her version of “Cry me a River”

So, the ignorant arrogant pontificators have struck again . . .
that old collectivist mentality that ignorant arrogance knows what’s best for the serfs and slaves? Sheesh.
Susan has
MORE VOICE
and
CHARACTER
than that clueless diatriPe ever thought of having.
She has a great set of pipes.

Vincent van Gogh was not a good artist. There, that settles it. Nobody else's opinion matters.
He HAS so be a UK Socialist. Can’t BEAR to give praise....where praise is most CERTAINLY due. In other words....he couldn’t do it, himself, so he has to act like a 6 yr old on the playground who runs to the teacher complaining that Suzy has a bigger cookie than he....and he wants it.
Sour grapes. Typical.
Anyone ever tell this person they aren’t a good writer?
I guess they were too busy teabagging to realize that he was an A-M-A-T-E-U-R singer.....you know, not professionally trained.
The 'smart' set will, of course, listen to this silly little author and ignore their lying ears.
She is not a good singer, she is a great singer and with proper lessons and training she is going to be an exceptional singer making millions of dollars a year and performing all over the world.
This person obviously has heard her rendition of Cry Me a River.
Rob Leigh and others of same ilk should be required to check out the “Twilght Zone” episode where the normal people actually were ugly by our”standards”. Ugly is shown more in some peoples actions than their looks. Example:Plastic Pelosi.
Never mind poor example!
I see this happen on YouTube all the time—mostly to professional singers and musicians—people that do outstanding work, but someone comes along and says their voices suck or their music is for the untrained masses.
She’s a brilliant singer.
Most “singing” nowadays is heavily dubbed and edited.
No, I’m sure that Amy Winehouse thing is more his style. Maybe eyebrows could be the new tattoos?
I sure thought it was great. I’m not very bright.
After listening to many performances of “I Dreamed a Dream” on youtube, I think Susan Boyle sang it better than most. Her performance stacked up well even against the professionals. The only performances I liked a lot more were Ruthie Henshall’s.
