OT - Kind of, just want this to get the most exposure.....
For those times when we all might tend to judge a book by its cover, take a look at this video and put things into perspective.
Look at the expression on the face of the judges when this gentleman first comes out.

This was amazing and brought me to tears...
Thank you John for posting this. Sometimes when we feel down, amazing things happen to make you feel better. I am so inspired by this, I don't know what to say. I don't even like Opera. Thanks again John!

I just love Nessa Dorma.
Paul Potts has a wonderful voice. He has sung in front of Luciana Pavarotti.
Thanks for posting that John

Thank you, Sylvia.
The world lost a great tenor when Pavaratti died earlier this year. I think Simon Cowell found his replacement. Thank you to all the wonderful Brits that supported this chap, but not for you, the world would not know the name Paul Potts. Well done!
I rank this #1 for inspirational story of the year...I would pay dearly to see this man sing and I would take a box of tissue. Thank you, Paul Potts, you are an inspiration to all of us.

Re: Thank you, Sylvia.
I need to make a correction to my previous post. It should, of course, been Nessun Dorma . I didn't think anyone would have noticed my booboo. But, trust an Italian to notice <g>
Paul does have a fantastic voice. He does have a CD out which is fantastic. Have you ever heard "My Way" sung in Italian?

Wow, now I want to do that!
I saw Taylor Ware yodeling and I practiced in the car until I could do it too. Now I want to sing oprea. But I somehow think this will be harder. (Especially since you need a good voice to do opera, which isn't necessary in yodeling.)
He is wonderful. Thanks for sharing this clip with us.

Re: Wow, now I want to do that! Oh my, oh, oh oh! If only I
could sing (I can't) I would want to do to others what Paul Potts has done. So happy w/my tissues right now!
I know what I want for Christmas! for my car! for my home!
THANKS, John.
