Lost Video Footage

Clip of 22-Year-Old Susan Boyle Singing Surfaces

In an age of limitless video footage, juicy material is available if someone only takes the time to sift through it. Gerry McGuinness did just that - digging up this interesting piece from a long time ago. Shot at the Motherwell Football Club’s social club in Scotland, this video shows a 22-year-old Susan Boyle singing. You can’t really hear her that well, but you can see a younger (and hipper?) Susan.
