مكســر في (suzan cagle) من مشردة الى نجمة ومغنية شهيرة تبتسـم لها الحياة

Quote: NEW YORK, May 10 /PRNewswire/ -- A dream came true for emerging singer- songwriter Susan Cagle when Oprah Winfrey invited her to appear and perform live on "The Oprah Winfrey Show." Susan's Cinderella story and new song, "Dear Oprah," had captured Oprah's imagination and the Emmy-winning host of America's top-rated talk show wanted to meet Susan in person. Susan appeared on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" on Thursday, May 10, with a heartfelt performance and candid interview with the woman who'd inspired "Dear Oprah." Susan Cagle's "Dear Oprah" is currently available online at iTunes, Sony Connect, Rhapsody, Napster, Yahoo! Music Jukebox, Zune, and URGE. Susan is currently working on her major label studio debut album, slated for release later this year. On her own and as an official part of the "Music Under New York" program, Susan Cagle became an underground sensation in New York City--literally. Since 2002, the striking young performer has emerged as one of the most popular singer/songwriters ever to play for tips on a Manhattan subway platform (selling more than 30,000 copies of her self-made recordings to commuters, tourists and fans). It was at the 34th Street station along the N/R lines that Susan first caught the attention of producer Jay Levine who later introduced her to the executives at Columbia Records. Recorded at stations along New York's fabled 42nd Street line -- six tracks recorded during rush hour in Times Square and four cut late at night at the legendary Grand Central Station -- Susan's major label debut, The Subway Recordings, was released by Lefthook/Columbia Records, in May 2006. Susan Cagle was the subject of an MTV "You Hear It First" story in March 2006 and opened shows for label mate Teddy Geiger later that year. No stranger to performing live, Susan was raised in a family of musicians who made their living by playing together on street corners and in subway stations. The second oldest of ten brothers and sisters, she traveled the world as a child, learning to sing and play music while barely out of the crib. During performances with her family, she was taking solos before she was four years old, and started playing guitar at age seven. By the time she was fourteen, she had lived in Venezuela, Mexico, Greece, Italy, France, Germany, England, Scotland, Ireland and all across the United States -- from California to up and down the East Coast -- and had traveled as far west as Hawaii and as far east as communist-era Czechoslovakia. When Susan Cagle she came of age, she decided to pursue her own musical path. With her soulful vocals, hooky songs and sweet stories, Susan struck out on her own and moved to New York in 2001.
