When Potts started out on one of those talent shows, the music/ opera snobs scorned and ridiculed him. Now listen to him! Atta boy Paul, make these "stuffed shirts" eat their words!
@fezzik76192 жыл бұрын
Well first of all this isn’t an operatic piece. It’s an art song. It only ends on an A4 for the tenor. Secondly, Potts’s power, resonance and interpretation come nowhere near that of the upper echelon opera singers. The only reason he isn’t lost in obscurity is BECAUSE OF Britain’s Got Talent. This isn’t me necessarily trying to scorn him, it’s a simple statement of fact having heard recordings of and been to concerts of many of the all-time greats.

Do only the people in those cities deserve beautiful music. And are the company members in non starring roles not worthy of being heard at all? Just my opinion.

Wow! I never expected that! I'm a 66 year old, crotchety old man who is highly cynical and unsophisticated for the most part and have no experience with music like this. I remember hearing Andrea Bocelli sing this years ago so decided to click the start button to listen. I have never heard of this young lady or anything about her before tonight but something very strange happened before the end of the song. I found that tears were streaming down my face and couldn't figure out why. I guess just admiring her elegance and grace, and listening to her sing so beautifully opened up the floodgates. Pretty god-damn glorious!
