Susan Boyle Tops the Charts

Who would have ever thought that Susan Boyle would have the recognition she has today from walking out onto the stage of Britain's Got Talent? Definitely not me. Within a year, she has had two number 1 albums in the United States and the United Kingdom simultaneously. According to Sony, her record label company, she is the first woman to achieve such an honor.  The Beatles were the last group that achieved recognition for this in 1969, over 40 years ago, with their albums Abbey Road and The White Album. Talk about a busy year!
