Paul Potts shocks the judges who were judging him before he opened up his mouth. Good for you Paul, you deserved that win in Britain has Talent.

[@zanohoriamazo1]

They sure had judged him based on appearance & his humility. Pierce, or whatever his name, can be a pompous dude as I’ve seen when he’s interviewed folks. The look that he gives when Paul says, ‘I’m going to sing opera’, & then the look that follows when Paul starts singing, is priceless, like he’d gotten slapped. Amanda is even condescending even after he made her wet herself....’lump of coal turned into a diamond’, ‘frog turned into a prince’. She almost passed out.

[@gezzarandom]

They didn’t learn from this, they did the same thing with a certain Scottish singer a few years later, can’t remember her name though……😉

[@Kavaliersdelikte]

Best winner also for me, a German ;)

[@makanissue]

His first performance won it. It was in that performance his true self burst out of. Nothing quite matches that moment. The look in his eyes is special, it's the only time he has this look. It's as if he is in a trance, it's sadness, despair, determination, and retribution.

[@williammerne8510]

Incredible voice. Now an incredible career. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. So well deserving.

[@AMANSILLA88]

Paul comes out so humble and insecure to the stage, he becomes a lion when he sings and then he is the same humble man he was when he came to the stage. Amazing!

[@cbass415]

Paul you are my hero for real. You grew up getting bullied which lead to you not having any self confidence. You were on the low end of the totem pole no one even seen you coming, yet you had the courage and strength to step on a international stage and blew everyone's mind. You are a role model man.

[@briobarb8525]

It's about soooo much more than the money!!!! You missed so much bud!

[@workman88]

Paul went from working at a store to a net worth of over 10 million. Good for you buddy.

@jack northfield I watched One Chance. It made me cry even more when he sing 😭

and me. I cry every time i hear it

[@sheilafontaine9021]

If you cry when you hear opera. you are a fan. That is the appropriate emotional response.

[@MrKennytrcka]

I had heard Pavarotti's interpretation of this sublime song before. It always sounded technically perfect, but not as heartfelt as this interpretation sounds. So emotional. Being inspired by this even in 2019.

[@Romi5422]

Realmente es asi o es lo que los medios nos hacen creer? alguien que sepa de música que nos pueda dar una critica objetiva? Para mi se oye bonito pero yo no se mucho de musica de voz de cabeza y de pecho, de color de voz, etc, etc.

Just listened to this with my father and brought us both to tears! Absolutely beautiful!!

[@camilleciampa7410]

My favorite Aria from Turandot by Giacomo Puccini! As an executive music producer, I knew from the first time he began to sing one of the most difficukt Arias, he was going to win! Bravo Paul! Bravo!

[@darrenheadrick3669]

My parents instilled in me a deep appreciation for music, all genres of music. My mother lived classical such as this. I remember her and I cleaning house or making dinner for the family and wonderful singers like Paul Potts on the classical radio station back in Detroit were singing. I didn't get it back then, I just enjoyed spending time with my Mom. I lost my Mom on August 28th, 2001 to cancer, two weeks before the 911 attacks. I was in service at the time and home on emergency leave. I was recalled the day after New York and Washington DC were hit. And I won't forget the Pennsylvania field. But that was shadowed by the loss of my mother. I never really had the opportunity to grieve for my Mom. I listen to this beautiful music to thus day and for a few moments I'm connected with my mother again. I still don't understand what they are saying, but that's okay, I don't have to know. To my Mother, I get it now Mom. Over 18 years later and there is still a hole in my heart that can not be filled. I miss and love you so much Mom.

[@MrKennytrcka]

My beautiful dad and I used to watch this video together. We enjoyed it so much. I can't forget my dad either. I often dream about him and cry sometimes. My only comfort is my wife and little daughter.

[@darrenheadrick3669]

@@MrKennytrcka Dont cry for your lose, instead, celebrate the life, times and love you and your Dad had together. None of us are guaranteed a specific amout of time here. So live, laugh and love like everyday was your last. Celebrate your life and those you love brother. Tell you what, ill celebrate you and your beautiful families life. Ill go home and make a big bowl of pasta for dinner and I'll set a place for you and your family in hopes that you are having a good meal with them.

[@gaymichaelis7581]

I can’t get enough of this fellow, Paul!!!! I just want to keep watching him and listening to him! As Simon says, he just wants Paul to do well or win or somesuch! That’s the way I feel! He is so humble and since he was bullied as a kid and fell and broke his tooth or teeth in the front, etc. oh, also being very much in debt I think when he came to the competition! I just want him to succeed, succeed, succeed! I think he deserves it!

How much soul! I've never heard an interpretation as perfect as this ...

[@jackpeelspotatos6679]

Diego Moreno it was very good it bring tears to my eyes

[@peterdarley5161]

I agree. I'm Mrs Darley and I'm a retired classical singing teacher. Some of my pupils are now professional classical singers in the UK but in all the hundreds of beginners I've thankfully brought forward, with God, I didn't want to believe any 'hype ' about Britain's Got Talent singer winner Paul Potts because the parents of my pupils were constantly telling me about how good his voice is. I didn't want to believe any hype in case it would be disappointing as I don't want any more disappointment. So, by 2020, Britain's Got Talent 2007 popped up on my screen and I thought, I'm retired so I won't feel the disappointment so much now. I had to protect myself from possible disappointment because I have Major Depression medically. So I took the chance on 13th June 2020 to listen to Paul Potts for the first time and I am so glad I did because now I have awoken to what my pupil's parents were saying all along! All good things come from God therefore for God to allow us to have this person with this voice actually glorifies God. Praise God that Mr Potts has wife and home and extended family. I only hope that he knows how blessed he is and that he is singing now to glorify the Lord! Amen +Jesus and Mary and Joseph+

Truly one of those WTF moments in life which is why we all should never judge a book by its cover.

[@GermanGreetings]

forever wonderful, just by imagening this first moment of deepest, devine surprise. It`s not about any arrogance... because the judges came a long, long, very long way of suffering... and even beyond of this the british judges are `the` quality. A quality for itself. Compare, if you don`t agree... there countries enough, and among those the Russians are best in summary. But who cares about comparison : Pauls first audience is still simply `the` wonderful most honest moment of any castings at all... Thank just simply to all actors, being so honest, thanks: Fairy tail of modern times... and we had the grace, to be lifetime whitness.
