Top 10 Susan Boyle moments of 2009

When she trimmed her eyebrows, coloured her hair, and shaved her face. I hope she doesn't let herself go like that again.

Merry Christmas Mr.O'Dowd! Thanks for all of your support of our Susperstar Susan Boyle this past year. You are our hero! I like your top ten. Maybe there should be a top 20 there are so many great moments!

My favorite Susan Boyle moment? There are so many - she continues to captivate me with her charm, her beauty, and her glorious voice. One choice has to be her audition, of course, and every BGT tour performance was exquisite. I loved seeing her Harper's Bazaar photoshoot. Hearing her rendition of Wild Horses for the first time was breathtaking. Seeing her interaction with her devoted fans in New York was absolutely thrilling. Her album is beautiful beyond description - there are simply too many Susan moments to choose one or even a few. This wonderful lady has changed my life for the better and I am thankful that my life's journey has included her.

Yes, I also enjoyed Molly's interview and the duet with Elaine Page, and her song with Donnie. The interview with with Fred O'Neil regarding his former pupil was also a highlight for me. I think I'd delete #7 and replace it with the duet with Elaine Page. Otherwise, great line-up!

Oh, Niall, how wonderful that you placed the moments at Rockefeller Center as #2!! It was, indeed, a grand time for us. As the lady who was privileged to assemble the quilts for Susan and Pebbles, this moment was highest on my personal list. It was an honor to present to Susan these fantastic offerings from 163 people in 28 countries. What a precious time to demonstrate to Susan what admiration and affection her fans around the world have for her. We fans continue to deeply appreciate your steadfast defense and advocacy for Susan Boyle. Long live Niall O'Dowd!!

11. Her reaction to "IDAD" officially being U.K.'s top selling album in 2009; 12. (Provisionally) Her reaction to "IDAD" officially being U.S.A.'s top selling album in 2009.

That's a surprisingly straightforward one for me, Niall. There have been so many, it is true, and your fine article points them out with unerring accuracy. However, for me personally it has to be seeing Susan perform live in that ITV studio in London, the one song that I will always now associate her with, 'Who I Was Born To Be' and to see, with a feeling of enormous pride, her also receive (live) that platinum disc from Piers. Truly memorable moments and shared by me with newly found friends from the Netherlands and Sweden. That is the other aspect of all of this - the fact that Susan has brought so may people from across the globe together in one community, drawn not only by Susan's vocal talent, but by her inspiration and humility. It has been some year, not just for Susan but for all of us.

Wouldn't disagree with any of your highlights Niall - I also will long remember her Television show (was able to view online), her duet with Elaine Paige, and her receiving her Platinum award (she cried). But best of all perhaps was her performance in Rockefeller Plaza when she showed the world she could handle the cold, the early hour, the huge crowd, and do it all like a total pro. Her interactions with the audience was a joy to watch. Thanks for sharing all the good that's come from Susan's amazing first year.

All great moments, Niall. Here are mine: 1. Seeing Simon's eye's lift and hearing the first incredible notes of I Dreamed a Dream on BGT. 2. Watching Susan recover from a false start on Memory on the semi-final and finish with that glorious note. 3. Watching her arrive in LA to adoring fans and seeing the picture of her gently patting the girl who had impulsively reached out to hug her. 4. Her reaction to Oprah when she asked her about a "makeover" and she said "my best friend helped me with my makeup, that's hardly a makeover". (I must say I lost a lot of respect for Oprah's interviewing ability that day) 5. The first time I heard "Wild Horses". 6. Her interview with Molly Meldrum for Australia tv. 7. The first time I heard the album. 8. Watching her reaction when she received the platinum record on the Susan Boyle Story 9. Listening to her answers to fan questions. 10.Seeing the incredible sales figures in the UK after the tabloids had done all they could to beat her down and count her out. The Brits were having none of it. Sorry, I have to have another: 11. The quilt presentation in NY with her sweet reaction.

Totally agree with all-The class,character,remaining true to who she is, and-oh that voice-continue to amaze me everyday.
