Susan Boyle Astounds Singing "My Heart Will Go On” a Cappella on Live TV
The Britain's Got Talent Season 3 runner-up absolutely proved her raw talent.
Susan Boyle doesn't need a backup track to sound like an angel.
In 2009, shortly after her Britain's Got Talent Audition went viral, Boyle appeared on CNN's Larry King Live to show off her vocal talents yet again. During her appearance, she sang a stunning, a cappella rendition of "My Heart Will Go On" by Celine Dion, clearly impressing Piers Morgan, who was featured in Boyle's CNN interview segment.

"My Heart Will Go On" by Celine Dion lyrics
Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you
That is how I know you go on
Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on
Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more, you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never let go 'til we're gone
Love was when I loved you
One true time I'd hold to
In my life, we'll always go on
Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on (why does the heart go on?)
Once more, you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
You're here, there's nothing I fear
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart and
My heart will go on and on
