Susan Boyle singing Cry Me a River unearthed by Daily Record

Hat-tip to the Daily Record, which has today uncovered what it claims is Susan Boyle's first CD recording. You know Susan, don't you? Contestant on Britain's Got Talent. The Record reports that Susan recorded the track in 1999 for a millennium charity compilation CD at Whitburn Academy. Funfact: it's former X Factor winner Leon Jackson's school. Whitburn Academy? Fame Academy, more like! The CD, which was partly funded by Whitburn Community Council, was the brainchild of local newspaper editor Eddie Anderson. Meanwhile Simon Cowell has been on GMTV trying to insist that there is life in the competition yet. Nice try, Simon! Susan has the shortest odds in history. Monkey is sure that readers will agree that Susan sings an ultra-sultry version of Cry Me A River. She'll be singing the theme to the next James Bond film before you know it.
