Friday Fun: Britain’s Got Talent Amazing Videos
Normally I don’t like watching the British versions of ‘Idol’ etc as the standard in the UK is normally dreadful, whereas the American versions have some real talent on display.
However, I’ve seen some videos on the web this week that have made me change my mind, and I will be setting my new HTPC to record future episodes of Britain’s Got Talent. I love how the crowd go crazy in the second video.
I’m sure that all readers will be touched by this two videos. They definitely made me proud to be British (well, English ;-))
I can’t believe Paul Potts still looks worried about what the judges were going to say, after really belting it out! He definitely picked the right song as Nessun Dorma is one of the most recognised pieces of Opera in the UK after it was used as the theme tune for the television coverage of Italia 90.

Paul managed to give me goose bumps and almost brought a tear to my eye. Never judge a book by the cover lol.
I haven’t seen a performance that impressive in the American version.

I saw the one with the little girl and was quite struck by how sweet she was
I loved Mr. Paul Pott’s voice though! Gorgeous! And so impressive!
I think what I like best is how ‘normal’ and natural these people are. It makes me want to be a better person

shoot - it said that the video of the little girl was no longer available…
The video of Nessun Dorm was glorious, anyone know what year that was? It’s got to be 15-20 year+ old!

@Voice over guy
It must have been around 90/91 after italia 90. I just listened to it again and it still sends shivers down my spine.
