I hope in my next life I can either be a singer or dancer. Wow, her voice is just amazing. What a great song.

She can hit the notes, but too much vibrato.

If she can tame that, and hold the same note with little vibrato, then she will continue to be successful.

Great singers do not wobble all around a note.

If this woman stood next to a piano, and someone held the sustain pedal down, you would hear at least three or four strings vibrate around the note she was attempting to sing.

A great singer can do the same thing, but only one string will vibrate.

She can do it though, with a little training.

Just beautiful.
9:58 To the untrained ear sounds great. Hearing examples of both I might be able to distinguish differences, but probably not.

Awsome

Susan is a true testament of "don't judge a book by it's cover"!
They didn't find her attractive but boy when she started singing......

Lesson learned anyone???

Her vibrato is just fine. If you listen closely, she is pulsing the same note, not varying it with other notes on either side of the note.

Boyle has had professional training, and I would bet her vibrato effect is partly due to that training. It is the same effect heard in much Broadway and operatic presentation.

It may be used more than to suit your liking, but I enjoyed the level of it, especially in these days of so-called "divas" who over-vocalize nearly every note until the ears split.

Amazing voice.
