One of Boyle’s greatest strengths is taking classic songs from iconic musicals and putting her own spin on them — and making fans feel every single emotion possible in the process. The Got Talent legend famously did it with “I Dreamed a Dream” from Les Misérables, and we’ve tracked down another instant classic that she covered from the same musical: “Bring Him Home.”

Listen to it, below, and be blown away by the grace and power behind Boyle’s performance. (Although she never performed on the Les Misérables stage, Boyle could certainly step right in and be at home if the opportunity ever arose!)

When Boyle feels something, she ensures anybody listening feels it, too. That, combined with her perfect vocal range and tone, makes every song she sings a genuine emotional rollercoaster.

In a 2020 interview with Country Images, Boyle reflected on her success and still can’t believe how quickly her world turned upside down after her 2009 Britain’s Got Talent Audition.

“One day you’re sitting in a room with your cat not doing anything; the next you’re on stage and in a competition,” she mused. “It was a complete turnaround.”

Of course, with age comes wisdom, and the now-63-year-old star didn’t let the bright lights of success distract her from living her dream.

“When you’re young you’re more fazed than when you get to a certain age – you become more relaxed. I’m living the dream! I’ve enjoyed every second of it,” she said.
