Susan Boyle has been plastered all over the news and the internet these past few days and I ended up watching this endearing and mindblowing performance of hers. It was one of those truly "In your face, sock it" kind of moments that highlights in bold all your cynicism and prejudices.
What i was happier to find was the song itself... "I dreamed a dream" from Les Miserables. It is from a West End musical of the same name. I am absolutely smitten by this song. Such anguish, frustration and sadness. It could have been penned by Tolkien himself :). A very moving piece of poetry and the last two lines, they are worth their own weight in gold.
Now life has killed
The dream I dreamed.
