Susan Boyle gives her version of a Rolling Stones’ song… or is it hers?
I just fell upon a youtube video of Susan Boyle singing “Wild Horses” on America’s Got Talent. A beautiful arrangement and presentation with piano and string instruments all around Boyle as she stood, static, at center stage and gave an exquisite and moving rendition of a beautiful song.
As I watched on and received the music to my ears I thought, “hey, that piano arrangement sounds familiar… and wait, the vocal line has changed! It is not like the original but still, I have definitely heard it before. It…it… it’s Charlotte Martin’s version!!!”.
It is undeniably Charlotte’s version but yet, I don’t see or hear any mention of that anywhere. She most definitely deserves a mention… so this is a start.
