You're going to have to Google "Paul Potts sings Opera Nessun Dorma - A new star is born" to see the video clip in question as they do not allow outside links in blogs... This video is amazing. In this day and age, after watching lots of American Idol, we have become very jaded and cynical when it comes to talent shows. Half of the reason we watch is to see how horrible people are. Its like watching a train wreck. We even reward people for being exhuberantly awful. And when you do see someone with talent, it is usually not some unknowing diamond in the rough. In our entertainment driven society it is hard to imagine someone who can really sing being shy and humble, or not really knowing just how talented they are. So I am watching this video of Britains Got Talent, and up walks this goofy looking guy. All I can think is I hope he is not as bad as it looks like he is gonna be. Because he was not the over the top, I just want my 5 minutes (you only get 5 now) of fame type. He was sincere and earnest and if he was bad, it was going to be painful to watch. But then he begins to sing and it is great. The crowd goes wild, and you start to feel this wave of joy washing over you. Truly amazing. |
