Kairon Gnothi

Susan Boyle。47岁。演唱歌曲：《I dreamed a dream》（自法国小说Les Misérables 改编的同名音乐剧中的一首歌）。

她 是个47岁的老女人，似乎从来没有男人对她感兴趣，甚至有报道说她至今保留着初吻。她独居在英国乡下（Blackburn, West Lothian），只有宠物猫Pebbles陪在身边。她一直想做一名专业歌手，却从来没有得到过机会。她说她想成为 Elaine Paige，最初听到这愿望的时候，全场观众报以笑声。然后，她开始歌唱……

歌词：I dreamed a dream

（There was a time when men were kind
When their voices were soft
And their words inviting
There was a time when love was blind
And the world was a song
And the song was exciting
There was a time
Then it all went wrong）

I dreamed a dream in time gone by
When hope was high
And life worth living
I dreamed that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving
Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung, no wine untasted

But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
And they turn your dream to shame

（He slept a summer by my side
He filled my days with endless wonder
He took my childhood in his stride
But he was gone when autumn came）

And still I dream he’ll come to me
That we will live the years together
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms we cannot weather

I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I’m living
So different now from what it seemed
Now life has killed the dream I dreamed.
