Paul Potts singt La Prima Volta für Flashmob in Oberhausen

[@dirkbenedom5414]

Zum Glück sind da so viele Kinder dabei gewesen 😃 Das die auch Mal hören was wahre Kunst ist. 😃

[@stolli48]

So ist es . Wurde durch meine Eltern an die Musik herangebracht und hatte 8 Jahre Klavierunterricht Er ist so ein wunderbarer Sänger.

[@ignatiushendra4698]

For a few minutes those people just stood there in silence, witnessing a gifted singer brings magic to their life. So many souls touched by that performance. Amazing.

[@ManfredPasch]

But their souls would have saved this moment better without the cursed mobile phones!!!!

[@Deontjie]

For a few minutes the people grabbed their phones, instead of appreciating the moment.

[@BILLVANNER]

IT IS GREAT TO SEE BOTH YOUNG AND OLD ENJOY THIS MUSIC TOGETHER.BEAUTIFULLY SUNG. THANK YOU.

[@kristinebailey6554]

Yes, I noticed that too. The young boy with swept back black hair was just as mesmerized as the seniors.

[@wkmillard]

Just this one song brought these people of all ages together , not fighting, no hating, just listening and watching with joy in their hearts. Well done Mr. Potts- you the man!

Deine Musik hört man nicht, denn Deine Musik fühlt man. Sie geht mitten ins Herz und stets begleitet mit Gänsehaut und Tränen in den Augen. Sie berührt so viele Menschen egal welchen Alters. Danke dafür .... von Herzen. Und doch bist Du trotz des ganzen Erfolgs Mensch geblieben, der sich seiner Wurzeln bewusst ist und diese weiter lebt.... meine Hochachtung.

[@LargestClassifieds]

The crowd was silent, now that's so considerate and so much respect for Paul Pott's singing and music appreciation.

[@contrymnon]

My dad's a professor at the Conservatoire de Paris, and he and his friends dream to organize free concerts sometimes in the future for smaller towns. Classical music and operas are not just meant to be sung in a grande auditorium, to wealthier and luxurious audience. All I see here in this video is real joy and happiness this amazing music brings to very ordinary people of all ages. Nothing's more precious or richer than this. i feel second-handed pride and hope as a musician in watching this.

[@changedpeeezy]

Dem stimme ich voll und ganz zu! Musik verbindet uns Menschen! Musik erinnert uns an schöne Momente oder hält die Erinnerungen an Menschen oder Ereignisse am Leben.. Musik tröstet wenn es und schlecht geht. Sie lässt uns tanzen, lässt uns fröhlich sein aber lässt uns auch weinen.. Mit Musik kann ausgedrückt werden was man si evtl nicht schafft.. Ohne Musik wäre die Welt nur Grau und langweilig.. Ein Leben ohne Musik? Für mich unvorstellbar!
