Britain's Got Talent - Paul Potts


This one is really worth watching - a YouTube video named 'Paul Potts singing Opera'.



There is a talent show running in Britain, called 'Britain's Got Talent'. Paul Potts was there as a contestant at the first audition show. He's a mobile phone sales man from South Wales.

The quest is on to find the nation’s most remarkable performers, every night from June 9 to June 17. The Britain’s Got Talent judging panel consists of X Factor mogul Simon Cowell, who takes the strain along with journalist Piers Morgan and actress Amanda Holden.

BTW this is the 'Nessun Dorma', an aria from the final act of Giacomo Puccini's opera Turandot. There is an interpretation of Luciano Pavarotti as YouTube video available - if you'd like to compare.
