- paul potts sings for the queen royal variety performance liverpool empire the winner of britain's got talent high Quality Video Paul Potts won a TV compitition called Britian has got talent, and the first prize was to perform in front of the Queen of England, at the royal variety performance, that is held once a year (yes the Queen was present)
Paul Potts did something no singer of greater talent ever did. He allowed the "every man" to experience the passion and power of opera. I continue to be blown away even after watching/listening to his version of Nessun Dorma 50 times. It is freaking amazing. I am grateful to him for allowing me to experience this over the past 5 years. I never get tired of it. Thanks a lot, Paul
***** Hey John, thanks for posting to me. It is an honor to be in such good company. Many respects.
***** John, I am happy to say I have enjoyed Jonathan & Charlotte before and I will check the others when time permits. I am so glad to have met you and send you my most sincere regards. Stay positive, you are delightful to converse with.
To know that he was bullied and that he decided to go against the odds of getting a chance to show his talent, is just a beautiful way to tell every single person out there who is being bullied that we are all shining diamonds. Only rare beautiful ones need time and effort to become the one piece that every one wish to have.
Debbie G Maybe this plan will be a sucess on a country of 1st world, but here, on brazil.. no.. here is a hell, we never have an oportunity to show the effort and talent.. its sad, but what we will do? Im learning english to go to an other country and well, show my music
Every time I listen to Paul sings he moves me to tears.
quite a good comment!
Music that moves the soul is more then music its magic. bellisimo
Bellisimo indeed.
He is so humble and down to earth. Beautiful voice and soul. He truly deserves his success ❤
Paul Potts...... talent on loan ..... from God....
So good. I get chills listening to him. Awesome person as well. Humility makes him strong.
Paul has been criticized as not being a true opera singer because he doesn't do operas. The truth of the matter is that most opera music (as is true with all other types of music) is crap. Paul just sings the greatest songs from opera, which are indeed great. That's what makes him so listenable. No one wants to hear most opera songs and Paul doesn't sing them. Bravo.
Uhmmmm okayyyyy... But thats your opinion. Don't dress it up as if it were a fact. I for my part am a classical singer and I happen to love most opera music.
Because you don't appreciate opera as an art form doesn't mean it's all crap. Are you aware how long it takes for a lead in opera to learn the role from scratch, often in a foreign language. I'm pleased for Paul and the niche he has carved for himself but in no way can he ever be compared to true operatic stars. In this performance for example, his voice was faltering on the final high C. Listen to this and then immediately compare it to someone like Joseph Calleja, Franco Correlli, Jussi Boring, Lawrence Brownlee or Luciano Pavarotti and I'm sure you'll appreciate the difference. Ultimately it comes down to either wanting to hear the best or being happy to settle for something less. I admire Paul Potts for having overcome the particular adversities in his personal life and wish him every success as do many others: that isn't an excuse though for disrespecting those performers who spend many, many years of their lives perfecting and living their art but never achieve the overnight success that Paul has enjoyed.
I'm so grateful I had the chance to attend the Opera at the Met many times when I lived in Manhattan. Like it or not, there's extreme talent and work that goes into it and I can appreciate that.
@@phedrob3735 Jussi Bjorling, not Boring. What do you think of Jonas Kaufmann, who wowed the audience at La Scala? BTW, Franco Corelli is my favorite opera tenor. He owned Nessun Dorma, even though Pavarotti used it as his signature song, he paid tribute to Corelli.
Just amazing......wonderful voice and a real nice guy too.
Its just simply talent,God bless this humble guy.
What a wonderful young man,I could listen to him for hours,xx
Another extraordinary voice from Wales... It's in the water I'm betting. They seem to grow beautifully in those green green valleys.
Music is like breathing for the Welsh and it's part of their souls... god bless 'em.
He is the next Pavarotti! I'm an American, a Pavarotti fan, and I adore Paul Potts. Saw him on Britain's Got Talent clips. Give him time for more stage presence, but his voice gives me chills. He's the best of Britain!
Eu sou brasileiro, estou vendo esse vídeo em 2020.
É demais o que esse cara representa, cada atuação dele é como se fosse algo novo.
Ele tem o dom de cantar e encantar.
Obrigado Paul Potts, de um grande fã do Brasil!
de dois fãs !!!! bravo!!!!!
Opera is not a show business it’s a real talent , it’s a God given gift
Every time l hear Paul. l just cry. l am totally amazed.
Bobby John so am I
my word, I watch Paul Potts's videos all the time and today I have to comment. he is awesome and got the chance to do what he loves at the ryt time. God planned his future.
Magnificent! Thank you, Paul, for sharing your wonderful talent with the world.
He tells his own story in this opera and you feel it from the very first audition. Emotional ann honest indeed. Great man!
I'm so happy that a bullied child grew up in a magnificent way to give his gift from God and he's giving his gift to the world. God bless you and your family keep on paying the luv forward ❤️🦋
This man is unreal... just unreal!!!
This is truly the gift of GOD coming from this amazing voice.
He is moving I love listening to him sing!
i am privileged to have heard you sing. I feel as if I have heard the voice that is probably in Heaven's playlist
Ein großer "Pavarotti" ist von uns gegangen, ein ganz großer "Paul Potts" ist gekommen und hat diesen Verlust auf einen Schlag vergessen gemacht.
Congratulation Paul, and I wish you a very successfull Carriere.
DJ Manni from Germany
I'm all goosebumps..... Incredible.
May God Bless Him.....
God bless your talent Paul Potts
Amazing performance what a humble guy
wow.gibt immer noch Gänsehaut beim hören.danke
awesome! Paul, you're the best! Your voice is like a crystal...
Though I cannot understand the words,there is something deeply stirring about this music!
Italian is amazing and the music is just epic...and utterly timeless.
Michael Mixon On behalf of all us Italians,thank you.
Not only is he good but he happens to be the best choice to sing for the queen. Imagine someone else than him from BGT singing for the queen..
Fantastic - a flagship for the UK ❤️
I keep watching this brilliant performance and am still impressed
When he sings it just makes me want to cry. It's so beautiful and relaxing.
Ein Großer, Pavarotti, ist von uns gegangen, ein ganz großer Paul Potts ist gekommen und hat diesen Verlust auf einen Schlag vergessen gemacht. Congratulation Paul an Iwish you a very succesfull Way......
He brings me to tears each time I hear him. What an angel voice he has!
People might like to draw comparisons between Pott and Pavarotti or Bocelli and say Pott doesn't stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the heavyweights, but I think what is important to consider is that Pott had an untrained talent which was so distilled in spite of his inexperience that it was immediately recognizable and powerful enough for entire populations of people to take notice. It's not that he simply isn't as good, but for the time, he lacked the training and coaching necessary to deliver flawless performances of songs not native to his own language. Of course he may get inflections or pronunciations less than exact, but it's all literally foreign to him. If he continues on this path for the rest of his life, with proper training and over time, who's to say if he won't be casting his own shadow in the pantheon of the rest of the greats that people think he may be just falling short of right now.
Everytime I hear Paul Potts , it moves me to tears. I don't know opera, I don't like opera. Paul Potts has made the crossover to the mainstream, and made it something beautiful for the masses. Something opera world snobs should take note of.
Happy to see the new look of his teeth ; )
Stunning, simply stunning!.
Paul, you make me cry too. Such beauty in you. To touch so many people's hearts and emotions. An awesome gift.
Such a powerful performance! I simply love it! Paul has such a wonderful God given talent! Beautiful voice!
So much emotion coming from him.... it's beautiful.
Paul Potts is a very special person, and quite obviously, a brand new crystal clear, and powerful opera singer. Some critics would not agree, and I would seriously question their credentials. Many of them spend too much time in front of the mirror in admiration, but then again, they could not make it any other way. I never realized how truly great paul really is, until the end of his performance in front of the Queen. He did not forget to turn around and thank the people behind him. Bravo!
I can't stop playing this video. I haven't heard a sound like that in many years. It's been about 3 weeks since the first time I saw his first audition I have played this several times a day since. He truly is amazing.
This is an absolutely amazing work. The
talent of Paul Potts:"lump of coal that
became a diamond", a priceless cast of background artists, and the wonderful
composers who produced this masterpiece....
I absolutely love it....It is spiritually rousing...Like A.Lincoln noted on another subject..It calls to our "Better Angels".
I will listen to It over and over because it
is wonderful.
This is heart wrenching!! Truly great!!
I strongly believe that Paul Potts is one of the best singers in the world, especially in this type of music. And his live story is unbelivable.
One of the most beautiful songs ever...
Es dürfte an der Zeit sein endlich umzudenken.
Man darf einen Menschen eben nicht nur nach seinem Äußeren beurteilen, was immer noch oft genug passiert.
Vielmehr sind ALLE Werte auschlaggebend.
Gleiches Recht und gleiche Würde für ALLE!
He truly sings with his heart + soul
Paul should be a inspiration to us all. Follow your dreams and never give up, show the world what you can do!
i love him. he is a great singer and i think he can make it far. his voiche is just great, i hope to hear songs from him soon!
There is something about him, perfect tone ,perfect timing, a natural. There are years of listening pleasure there. I love the name too!
what a ledgend he was and still is i love his vulnerability and he shares the applause with the whole stage. all in all a very genuine humble gentleman i hope ur so proud of what u have achieved paul xxx
he is just amazing and so humble, he shared the applause to the girls of the choir and the orchestra... it made my heart melt
i cry every time he sings ur the best singer of this new generation
Amazing................ fantaistic voice.
Paul Scooby - Brazil
He is just wonderful
Outstanding. Enough said.
I don't understand what he's singing but it sounds sooooo good
Poul Potts got the voice of an angel - he would touch even a stone or steel heart - keep it up young man enrich the world with your voice :-)
Blown away by this guy.
So much improvement in such a short time since the first show.
Just WOW !
You know you have made it big when people are making a huge effort to say you're not as good a Pavarotti. I am an actor, and if people all over the world are despising me for not being as good a Lawrence Olivier, I will consider myself a success. besides, I love Potts not just because of his singing but because of his story and his persona.
My 'gut' clutches and my heart starts beating faster.... Thank you, Mr. Potts. I am SO pleased at your success. There are only four "...Got Talent" 'stars' that I play over and over and.... Obviously, you. Susan Boyle, Brian Justin Crum and a punk, Andrew DeLeon.* Each of you are shockers of massive talent. De Leon, well, he turned out not to be to my 'taste' as it were, but his initial performance was excellent. Crum because he is deserving. Susan Boyle, the reason why is obvious, and you. All of you faced certain 'levels' of personal difficulties as youth and young and into your early adult years, and that in itself makes each of your successes so much more meaningful. Your voice and demeanor make you a star. Thank you for your quality as a human...
unbeleivable. paul potts moves me to tears time and time again
Z przyjemnoscia wracam tutaj.Przepiekny glos!!!!!
I love the echo of his voice at 4:17 without any music behind it, it's beautiful and sets up for his powerful ending
I was blown away when I saw him on AGT idd heard a bit off opera but didnt follow it listening to him sing opera opened up my love for opera he was so good brought opera into the ordinary mans world it still gets me everytime I listen to this
Sin palabras, emociona hasta el aliento..
Paul, you were born to sing opera!
i always cry when i listen... Paul is the best!!
Juliana/Brazil
Its just shows, outstanding people come when you don't expect it
I've always thought Paul potts is a lightweight singer, after watching and listening to this, I've really changed my mind. he really has a wonderful talent. Up with the best of all time.
Awesome....Even as a (barbarian?) Yank, I would be SO nervous to meet Her Majesty, much less to perform for the Royal family,, I just know I'd goof it up. Again, as an 8th generation immigrant from 'the Mother Country', MY family's reverence for the Crown of England has always been passed on as family tradition. Long live the Queen.
Beyond words........Thanks Paul
I have never liked opera...until I saw him on Oprah...I am hooked and I don't care if he sings phonetically...he makes me feel something because he is so passionate!
Maybe the best operah singer ever, this Paul is better than the big oprah stars.
Each time I listen to Paul I just cry...
Hier had Paul Pots al genoeg verdiend om een nieuw gebit aan te schaffen.
Maar alle gekheid op een stokje, hij heeft een prachtige stem maar.... ik
hoor Jonathan van Jonathan en Charlotte toch liever. deze jongeman van nu
zo'n 18 jaar heeft een stem die dieper en zuiverder is. Dus, The Winner is..
Jonathan!!
at thousand times, it was a breathless moment for me hearing to this.
A great opera singer!!!!
PAUL JAK CIEBIE SLUCHAM TO AZ MI CIARKI PO PLECACH IDA ,NIGDY NIE BYLEM FANEM OPERY ALE SLUCHAJAC CIEBIE WIDZE ZE DUZO STRACILEM ,POZDRAWIAM
So glad to be able to see this. I guess I feel a kind of connection to Paul, knowing his story as we all do. Thanks for posting. A few of us were wondering how it went for him @ the RVP.
I never really cared for this music but this guy is a great singer!
This is a song called Nella Fantasy , a beautiful song and Paul Potts ur the best singer
When I saw him on BGT in 2007, I thought, he looks so SAD. Then I noticed his teeth. I thought he was self conscious about his teeth. He won BGT and had his teeth fixed, but still looks sad. What a pity. He has a great voice and everything going for him. Cheer up. Paul, you made it, most people never get that chance and still smile.
Pavarotti will always be the greatest, and I can tell Paul Potts was slightly nervous, as his vibrato didn't exist at the beginning of the performance...but a very impressive show of talent and passion, nonetheless. Well done.
hip hop and rnb fan listen to opera because of this guy simply amazing
Beautiful voice
Best! U made me cry Paul!
WOW - just goes to show that a normal everyday person can become a star overnight. 5 stars
I think he is the new " pavarotti" in another way, generation and époque!
Superb, I will be buying his cd.
Paul is awesome
Paul ROCKS!
I love your story, I love your great new smile and most of all, I love that fantastic voice. You've got big shoes to fill, but you are the man who can do it.
Fantastic, amazing and beatiful !!!!!
Why i feel like freaking cry whe he sings ...damn he's good.
Don't let anyone tell you your not telanted... especialy, yourself. Because you are!
