Last week Susan flew into London and stayed in a hotel in Kensington near her record label offices. After a bit of business she spent the afternoon shopping in Kensington High Street and just enjoying being in London.
The following morning she took a plane from Heathrow to Copenhagen where she appeared that evening at a charity gala at the Tivoli Concert Hall. She headlined the Danmark Indsamling Show and performed I Dreamed A Dream to a standing ovation.
Susan said, “This was probably the largest concert hall audience I have ever performed to and it was a wonderful experience, a very warm reception”.
After her triumphant stage debut in Denmark, Susan and her team went out for an Italian meal to celebrate.
The next morning Susan awoke to find that a foot of snow had been dumped overnight.
“It felt like I was back in Scotland again! We have had so much snow there, and when I woke up in Copenhagen and looked out of my window it looked like Christmas again!”
Fortunately, the snow ploughs were already in action and Susan and her team made it to the airport. After a short delay they were on their way back home.
It had been a successful trip and Susan really enjoyed her first visit to a Scandinavian country.
“It was beautiful there, “ she commented, “I would love to go back –especially in the summer. I imagine it is even more beautiful.”
On Wednesday 3rd February, Susan attended the video shoot for the Helping Haiti - Everybody hurts single. When asked about she felt about her part in the project Susan commented, “ This is a cause you can’t ignore. This will lay the foundations for the future for the people of Haiti and for their children. .. I hope people will see the spirit in which this was done and buy the single.”
Towards the end of this week Susan will be interviewed by CBS Sunday Morning show. The crew are arriving from New York to Scotland on Sunday morning. They will set up in a picturesque location near to Susan’s home and catch up on her news and views. Susan has worked with the crew before and is really looking forward to showing them her home country.
