Paul Potts Wows with "Nessun Dorma"
I'm a sucker for two things: underdogs and arias. So it goes without saying that this clip from UK talent show Britain's Got Talent tugs at my delicate little heart strings like no other.
No one underestimates the significance of a Simon Cowell smile -- the guy rarely cracks one. But when Paul Potts opens his mouth and lets loose a flawless rendition of "Nessun Dorma," Cowell can't help but grin from ear to ear. Potts is a mobile salesman by day and exudes a genuine humbleness that is rare among talent show contestants. It might be early in the game, but we're betting on him to go all the way.
