British singing sensation Susan Boyle is already a record breaking artist, one month before her debut album is released. "I Dreamed a Dream," due out November 23rd, has taken in the most orders in the history of Amazon.com.

Craig Pape, Senior Manager of Music at Amazon.com said in an interview, "Although it's normal to see early enthusiasm for artists who have come off of television shows, the response from our customers to Susan Boyle's upcoming album has been unprecedented."

Susan Boyle, 48, has been keeping a low profile since she became famous on "Britain's Got Talent." She captured the hearts of millions of people all around the world.

She received over 100 million views of her "Cry Me a River" video on YouTube.com. The media and fan attention took it's toll on Boyle.

After coming in second place in the talent competition, the singer had several public outbursts and her behavior appeared erratic. In June, she spent five days at a psychiatric hospital.

Susan Boyle appears to be doing very well at the moment.

Her album isn't even out yet and she's breaking records. Imagine what will happen when her album actually releases. Last person to sell a million records in a week was Lil' Wayne. With this kind of buzz, she might sell a million within a few days. Let's see what happens. So far, her amazon record is a remarkable achievement.

well people who get crazy fame cannot always handle it and she should be under constant surveillance just in case she does not break through as expected or she does!

I hope this story has a happy ending. Susan Boyle proves you don't have to dress like a slut to sell records. Way to go Susan.

very good insight

A-men to THAT, WordsSlinger.. I wish some of the younger female artists would grab that concept. If you're REALLY TALENTED, you don't have to dress like a 'slut to sell records'. Kudos to Carrie Underwood, Leanne Rimes, Taylor Swift among others, who haven't gone that route.
