Setelah Jewel, ada satu versi lagi untuk lagu Wild Horses yang aslinya milik The Rolling Stones ini. Dialah Susan Boyle, runner up Britain’s Got Talent ini sangat semangat untuk debutnya dalam dunia rekaman di bawah naungan Syco. Wild Horses ditulis oleh Mick Jagger dan Keith Richards. Susan Boyle membungkusnya dalam alunan pop dengan pengaruh musical theatre.
Agak susah untuk Susan Boyle bisa bersaing dengan nama-nama yang lebih populer dan menganut aliran kontemporer yang lebih gampang diterima telinga awam, tapi paling tidak pesona bintang Susan Boyle yang sejak April lalu menjadi perhatian dunia bisa jadi modal awal karir musik komersilnya. Berikut pernyataan Susan Boyle kepada The Washington Post, “Modern society is too quick to judge people on their appearances. There is not much you can do about it; it is the way they think; it is the way they are. But maybe this could teach them a lesson, or set an example.”
For now, let’s take a ride on the Wild Horses!

Lyrics:
Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted I bought them for you
Graceless lady you know who I am
You know I can’t let you slide through my hands
Wild horses, couldn’t drag me away
Wild wild horses couldn’t drag me away
I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
Now you decided to show me the same
No sweeping exits or off stage lines
Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind
Wild horses, couldn’t drag me away
Wild wild horses couldn’t drag me away
I know I’ve dreamed you a sin and a lie
I have my freedom but I don’t have much time
Faith has been broken tears must be cried
Let’s do some living after we die
Wild horses, couldn’t drag me away
Wild wild horses we’ll ride them someday
Wild horses, couldn’t drag me away
Wild wild horses we’ll ride them someday
