Paul Potts Wins BRITAIN'S GOT TALENT

Liz Miller
Posted June 18, 2007

After Paul Potts reprised his stirring rendition of "Nessun Dorma" in Sunday night's final episode of Britain's Got Talent, host Ant (or Dec -- I get them confused) announced that all of Britian had gone "Paul Potts Potty." But you stand corrected, Mr. Dec (or Ant): it's the entire world that's watching.

Congratulations, Signore Potts, on your victory, which includes a record contract and live performance before the Queen. Bravissimo.

Life still can surprise positively!
Don't loose your humbleness... That (and your voice, of course) is what makes you special.

When Paul Potts sang Nessun Dorma at his audition, he took the world of Opera into his own hands, it will never be the same, his CD and ticket sales will prove me right. Let the sour folks say anything bad they like, it just says a lot about them and nothing they say will harm Paul. I only hope he will not do a make over, he is perfect as he is...

Winning BGT was but a footnote in this mans future. Not since Pavarotti has the world heard a voice like this.
Anyone that can bring most of the world to tears with their singing is not just someone who "could very well win BGT"..as Piers said. Those who witnessed "Nessun Dorma" on that particular night, will forever remember that special moment and can say "I was there to see a star born". He will go on to become the most famous singer since Caruso and Pavarotti...there's no doubt in my mind.
Not mentioning the back story about performing amateur opera
means nothing; takes away NOTHING from the magnificence of his voice. If there's one thing in this world that I hate, it's someone always dissecting an event, person or thing. Nothing "JUST IS" any longer. There always has to be a footnote. Well Paul Pott's footnote should never be anything but "possibly the greatest voice since Caruso". I think Pavarotti should be quaking in his boots at the moment.

I second that, what a long winded bunch of crap. If all the crap you sprew are true then Paul would of been a professional opera singer before he auditioned for BGT. He did not disguise himself as a lowly paid car phone salesman waiting for the right moment to unleash his talent so he can achieve the maximum effect of public sympathy. The good news is all the critics/snobs/contrarians/bullies/envious adds up to insignificant 1% of population. Paul just signed a 1M pound recording deal with Simon and I bet his first CD will go at least gold if not platinum. So go ahead, sprew all the crap you want because Paul is already rich and famous and you ... well you are still you.

Now that was a long-winded bunch of crap.
Paul Potts has trained. So what. He has never had the music industry truly acknowledge his talents and has remained at the semi-pro level until now. Did you watch his audition performance? I mean really watch? Did you watch his eyes? I don't know where Paul Potts goes when he sings, but he made my husband and I want to go there too. You can allude to the "hype" all you want, but you can't deny the powerful charisma Paul has when he sings with such passion. No hype can create that. Paul has a beautiful gift and all his life he has felt average or less than because he was "different". This is Paul's time to share his gift with the world and the talent show was just the vehicle. And personally, I'm glad my husband and I caught that bus as it was going by. Congratulations Paul! We anxiously await your first music release. Californians are going Potty for Potts too!
