Product Description
Product Description
Her fourth studio album in three years, Standing Ovation, sees Susan Boyle and world acclaimed producer Biff Stannard join forces to present an album of songs from the golden era of film and stage that spans the generations. Featuring breathtaking renditions of "Send in the Clowns" and "Bring Him Home", Susan fearlessly takes on the iconic song "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" giving it a new identity.
Standing Ovation also showcases duets with her lifelong idol Donny Osmond and the 'Phantom' himself Michael Crawford. The album heralds a return to an era of much loved music for Susan Boyle, a lifelong fan of musicals. Her favourite songs from the golden age of film and theatre fused with her outstanding vocals from the ethereal to the dramatic, the music showcases the voice the world fell in love with.
Talking about her album Susan said; “I have been a fan of musicals since I was a wee girl. I love them and have enjoyed the drama and the range of emotions they inspire in you. I still remember the first time I saw Les Mis, my all time favourite. I fell in love with it and have seen it now countless times as each time you watch it you draw something different. Creating this album was a joy and came very naturally as I knew the songs and could identify with the characters in the studio. Recording with Donny on two songs was a dream come true. Working with him was awesome and I learned so much from him as a performer and a person. Being in the studio with him was without doubt the best day ever--it wasn’t work!”
Standing Ovation was produced by Biff Stannard in Glasgow and London. Stannard is a highly regarded producer who in the past has worked with Kylie Minogue, U2, Westlife and One Direction to name a few.

Having heard only a brief snatch of some of Susan Boyle's versions of stage songs I felt that I had to hear more. Having now purchased this CD and heard them all I know that I was right to buy it. If you want to hear some wonderful songs sung by a superb artiste you should buy it too. Happy listening

I bought this CD because I am a avid Osmond fan and also think Subo is amazing. I was moved to tears when I heard them duo two very powerful songs. All the rest was great too.

Well Susan obviously just needed that break to be able to achieve what she now has. If you don't appreciate her the Japanese certainly do and know talent when it's staring them in the face. Long may she continue.

Susan Boyle
I love her voice. Her diction is so clear, not
slurred as some of the present day singers
and she doesn't try to sound American.

Nice to hear some duets
I like Susan Boyle's voice but I liked it better when it was more raw. I know that they had to get her to sound a bit more femmine but she was a hit when she first sung on BGT. Read more
