Ukraine's Got Talent



Damn, but I really don't know what to say about this. Tug of the ET beard to Mr Eddie Campbell for linking to this. Absolutely spell-binding. What follows is the art of Kseniya Simonova, the 24-year-old winner of Ukraine's Got Talent. 13 million people watched the finale.

  1. Sort of like Rolf Harris but without the beard?

    Yes. It was a filmmaker friend in the US who passed it on and I'm trying to spread the magic as well. I was very touched by the reaction of the audience, especially when you consider the country's history and how fresh it all still is in everyone's mind there.
    Superb performance.

    Thanks for posting that.

    As I sat there watching it I wondered to myself if many Americans truly understand the depth of this piece.

    After all, we are taught to think that Thanksgiving was a day to celebrate.

  6. Not Rolf... Jules Feiffer meets Tony Hart.

  7. Amazing...
    She does have a talent... Combining love and war stories into one with an ability to express feelings that are hard to put into words is an amazing example of a unique talent.
    Would like to see more of her performances.

  8. looks like Ukraine has a lot more talent, or at least the ability to discern it, than Britain.
