Default Paul Potts

Every time I watch this video I transfer in a blubbering old man.
Watch the jury and the public.

Saw it before, and yes, he obviously came as a big suprise to everbody.

Unfortunately I listened into his CD at amazon as well, and it is only a collection of trivialities. Great voice, nevertheless. It was nobody else than Pavarotti who became aware of him and urged him to turn professional. In fact, he somehow is, having been in master class at an italian top adress for classical singing, and having been singing for free in minor roles in some operas.

But at this stage, and knowing from my father what a snake pit the classical cd market is, he is well-advised with his decision not to jump into it.

I don't care how good a singer he is, he can't fool me from hiding his real identity as the leader of the Khmer Rouge by changing a few letters in his name. He must be brought to justice!

And why he never sang Holiday in Cambodia once in that competition defeats me.

(And if Amanda Holden ever wants to gaze at me like that she's welcome to )
