    Not one for these types of shows, but, that was...............

    nerve tingling, a serious talent hidden away, given a chance to shine, good luck to the young man.

    Well not exactly hidden away. He's a professionally trained opera singer that has had lead roles in opera's before and performed with the royal philharmonic orchestra. He's had master classes with pavarotti and has been on tv before singing opera. So he already knew that he had talent and so did the judges. Still a good singer though</p>

    He performs magic too.

    In Cambodia he made 1.6 million people disappear.

    He should do a cover of the Dead Kennedys song

    So you been to school
    For a year or two
    And you know youve seen it all
    In daddys car
    Thinkin youll go far
    Back east your type dont crawl

    Play ethnicky jazz
    To parade your snazz
    On your five grand stereo
    Braggin that you know
    How the ******s feel cold
    And the slums got so much soul

    Its time to taste what you most fear
    Right guard will not help you here
    Brace yourself, my dear

    Its a holiday in cambodia
    Its tough, kid, but its life
    Its a holiday in cambodia
    Dont forget to pack a wife

    Youre a star-belly sneech
    You suck like a leach
    You want everyone to act like you
    Kiss ass while you bitch
    So you can get rich
    But your boss gets richer off you

    Well youll work harder
    With a gun in your back
    For a bowl of rice a day
    Slave for soldiers
    Till you starve
    Then your head is skewered on a stake

    Now you can go where people are one
    Now you can go where they get things done
    What you need, my son.

    Is a holiday in cambodia
    Where people dress in black
    A holiday in cambodia
    Where youll kiss ass or crack

    Paul Potts, Paul Potts, Paul Potts, Paul Potts, Paul Potts, Paul Potts, Paul Potts

    And its a holiday in cambodia
    Where youll do what youre told
    A holiday in cambodia
    Where the slums got so much soul

    He should get a recording contract.

    Then he can afford to get his tombstone teeth sorted and his lazy eye straightened.

    He's good alright.

    But not in the same league as the big three. Mind you, I've never been a great fan of Carreras, Carlo Bergonzi now he was special.

    Paul Potts...not really a novice

    <a name="Paul Potts" /><font size="4">Paul Potts</font><font size="4"> <a name="(Don Carlos)" />(Don Carlos) is a relative new comer to Grand <strong style="color: black; background-color: #a0ffff">Opera[/b] after an apprenticeship in Gilbert and Sullivan in Bristol.. His claim to fame is his 1999 appearance on Michael Barrymore's My Kind of Music. This was followed by singing for Bath <strong style="color: black; background-color: #a0ffff">Opera[/b] in Turandot as Prince of Persia and Herald. He has since performed with The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and spent three months touring Northern Italy as a soloist, training under top teachers Mario Melani and Svetlana Sidrova. He has been invited back for a concert to be recorded and also for a masterclass with Luciano Pavarotti. Future plans include a summer tour with the RPO. </font>
