Susan Boyle ain't got the blues...

...but she does sing them.

Obviously, the Scot sensation is feeling pretty happy these days after becoming an overnight star on "Britain's Got Talent." Her version of "I Dreamed a Dream" has wowed millions all over the world.

Now it turns out she did once make a record -- 10 years ago, for a church charity CD. Only 1,000 copies were ever made.

I confess I'd worried that she might only be good at that one song -- something she'd sung to herself so many times, she'd gotten really good at it. If she tried other songs from other genres, I worried she might fall flat.

Nope.

Check out her version of "Cry Me a River." Just as flawless, passionate and nuanced as the Les Miserables tune.
