Ok, I’m a bit biased! But, videos like this from Britain’s Got Talent is very moving and if it doesn’t get you off your seat to pursue your dreams, I don’t know what will. Check it out, it’s truly fantastic and inspirational. Susan Boyle, unemployed at 47, auditioning in front of Simon Cowell et al. I’m a total sucker for this stuff (see Paul Potts for another example)…
Taking your startup to the next level
Hi Andy, is it online somewhere?
Gave me goosebumps. Awesome find and large amounts of inspiration.
Damn!
That is very inspiring. I saw a link early on CNN but didn’t bother watching it until you posted it here. That should tell ya something
Hi Andy,
Indeed - watching these reality talent shows, although a bit ‘cheesy’ at times, gives hope to all that if you have a skill, and are in the right place at the right time - your life can change in an instant. I follow American Idol and this time last year David Cook was working as a barman, and now he is a multi millionaire.
Its truly inspirational.
Check this out from last years American Idol:

Hey Andy,
This proves you can never judge a book by it’s cover. Given her age and being unemployed, this is Truly Inspirational. I literally got goosebumps watching this clip.
Great find.
Saw this clip on a news broadcast. This type of stuff keeps dreams alive.
Video isn’t up any more.
You think this was real? My first thought when I saw it was that it was entirely staged by Simon and/or folks at Idol — seemed like too many cameras in too many places, and too scripted of a response. Everything from her get-up to her choice of song, to her mannerisms — my hunch is that hollywood’s at play here, and they pulled off another doozy on the public at large.
Is there another link to where I can see the video you are talking about?
