Strange.........I thought this would have burned itself out by now.

Unreleased Susan Boyle Album Already Bestseller

D.I.S.H.
Thanks to pre-orders


It seems there is no stopping the force that is Susan Boyle. The reality show phenomenon's second album, The Gift, is already a bestseller, and it's not set for release until November 9. According to Billboard the album has soared to the top of Amazon.com's Bestsellers chart through pre-orders alone.

Amazon's director of music Craig Pape told Billboard, 'It's the season of Susan and it's a pretty significantly number one. The Gift has leapfrogged fourth-quarter efforts by Taylor Swift, Eric Clapton and Neil Young on the bestsellers tally, with only pre-orders of Bob Dylan's The Witmark Demos coming close to Boyle's sales.'

The new album will feature holiday tunes such as O Holy Night and The First Noel, as well as performances of Leonard Cohen's oft-covered Hallelujah and Lou Reed's Perfect Day. The latter is the song Boyle was recently prevented from performing on America's Got Talent.

This isn't the first time people have rushed to buy a Boyle album in advance. Her 2009 debut I Dreamed a Dream broke records as Amazon Music's largest CD pre-order ever.

Jobeterob, you are SDF's # 1 Susan Boyle fan. You should buy this CD ;)

I liked the performance but I didn't like the CD.

Carlo.............Diana Ross, not Susan Boyle. Aretha comes before Susan Boyle. And the Temptations and Glady Knight and Lesley Gore and Stevie Wonder and Neil Young and John Prine.

Stalking is always of interest on SD..........so read this:

Susan Boyle stalked by crazed fan

Susan Boyle is being stalked by a crazed fan who has managed to get her phone number and her family are now concerned about her safety.

[[BANG) -

Susan Boyle is being stalked by a crazed fan.

The 'Wild Horses' singer has been hounded by the man, who has managed to get her phone number and claims to be relative, and now her family are terrified something serious is going to happen.

Her brother Gerry told the News of the World newspaper: "He is calling Susan and pretending to be me or other relatives. It's been going on for a while. Susan knows who I am when I get on the phone. She never mistakes me for him.

"There are some weird people around. But this one is stalking her and has got her number. It is serious. Stalkers can become dangerous."

Although Susan, 49, insists she doesn't need any more protection, Gerry feels her security should be increased.

He said: "Susan knows having stalkers goes with the territory. She's massively well known so having people interested in her is going to happen. It's down to her management to work it out for her. How has someone been able to contact her?

"Our family have very serious reservations about whether she has enough security at the moment. She needs protection or it's a matter of time."

Last year, Susan was "shaken-up" after a stalker turned up at her home.

The star was bombarded with strange letters from a US woman, who went to her home in West Lothian, Scotland.

A source said: "This woman is constantly following Susan around the world. It is a middle-aged American woman who has become obsessed with her."

Just proves that you can't go broke by underestimating the bad taste of the listening public.
