Man, Britian’s Got Talent is putting American ::yawn:: Idol to shame! First Susan Boyle, now this wunderkind Shaheen. Thanks for posting this, what a set of pipes on the kid.
by the bye, every single time I watch Susan’s video I tear up.
I rarely watch reality shows, and I particularly despise American Idol, but I’ve seen a few of the clips you’ve linked to, from Britain’s Got Talent, and that one is growing on me.
edited to add: I also tear up when watching Susan Boyle awe the whole theater, and seeing Simon’s expression of shock and then appreciation.
Bit off topic, but Britain’s Got (Other) Talent. British scientists have developed a cure for macular degeneration, the most common cause of blindness. W00T!!!
This is the kind of medicine I dreamed of when I went into the field.

I’ve never watched a single whole episode of Idol, but I am getting HOOKED on BGT. I love this!
Thanks for sharing it Karen.
Vanessa–you and me both gf! Gives me goosebumps everytime I listen to her, which is about 5x’s a day. 🙂

Man, this is the show to see. I have to echo everyone else, first Susan Boyle and now this young man. They are making Americans look bad.
