Does anyone know who the tenor was that was on Special Report w/Brit Hume? The clip was on the ending of the program.

[kellynla]

I just caught the tail end of the clip. But the gentleman was EXCELLENT! Does anyone know about him and/or the program that he was singing on? Thanks in advance.

[blam]

I saw it too. It was a clip Brit saw on Utube...that’s all I know.

Fred Barnes singing the praises of Amnesty?

[kellynla]

OH! the man had an EXCELLENT VOICE!
He sang that Italian opera like no one I’ve heard in a LONG TIME!!!

I know he was singing on one of those talent shows but I don’t watch any of them so I don’t know which one it was.

American Idol maybe???

I don’t know what he was singing, but it was beautiful and stunning. While he sang it was impossible to think of anything else.

Do you know what program the tenor was singing on???

Scroll down to the bottom to see more videos. He’s on the second page, about half-way down. He’s a car phone salesman in the UK auditioning for “Britain’s got talent”.

He’s incredible.

Foreign american idol? The guy was auditioning.
Brit mentioned why he likes utube then played the clip.

I could be wrong. (I often am) But I think it was the British version of American Idol. I, quite literally, got chills listening to that incredible voice. He was amazing, and the judges and audience agreed.

[pbear8]

don’t know what he was singing

"Nessun Dorma" (Let No One Sleep) from Puccini's "Turandot".

[Marylander]

I think this will take you to the video. The title on youtube is Paul Potts sining opera.

sining=singing

In my opinion, it was a lip-sync. I can’t put my finger on the singer. If it is not a lip-sync his voice if strickingly similar to one of the greats.

[kellynla]

That’s him!!! Wasn’t he WONDERFUL!!!!!!

Here’s the link for anyone who didn’t get to hear him.

You are in for a VERY SPECIAL TREAT!

Turn up the volume on your pc if you love Italian opera!
