One chance
Wednesday, October 17, 2007I have not been aware of Paul Potts until I was told about him very recently that he was absolutely spectacular. He was a contestant in Britain's Got Talent, another reality show with Simon Cowell's name to it and he mesmerised them with this audition, singing Nessun Dorma. I love to watch the judges' expressions. And while watching this, I was almost in tears. What an amazing talent.
He sang Time to Say Goodbye in the semi-finals. And I have fallen in love with the song.
This is Paul Potts in the finals, singing the full version of Nessun Dorma - he won.
He aptly named his CD One Chance, with this being his one chance in life and won.

ReplyDeletePaul is brilliant. It brought up a deep sigh with the tearing up. Thanks for sharing, Pearlie.
ReplyDeleteI have used the Cowell/Potts clip many times this summer in group settings. I usually use it to communicate the idea that people often surprise us.
ReplyDeleteThe clip still causes me to tear up.
