Refreshing
When i was a kid one of my friends slipped off the petals on his ten speed bike. He sang some good opera too.
Thanks for posting that. I rarely listen to Opera and that was totally inspiring.
I definitely enjoyed it....wow!
The fellow has a nice voice. I went to the YouTube site and listened to some of the great tenors. Sadly, this guy isn’t one of them. Also, there’s a big difference between belting out one aria and singing a whole opera.
His performance had my eyes watering, too.
I would have never thought that I would like an opera song, but I guess I learned something new -- I still feel wobbly from that song a few minutes after the fact. A few years ago I started liking some country music, now I find an opera song I like...what the hell is happening to me?
“there’s a big difference between belting out one aria and singing a whole opera.”
Also a big difference in raw talent like this and one who has had voice training. Just imagine the power this guy would have with some training!
Thanks! I have heard opera before but never moved like that!
True, but when you take into consideration the resources this guy probably has compared to the great tenors you speak of, given time and training...who knows what could happen?
I went, clicked and damn.......I mean damn..........wowowow...I listed 6 times in a row.
This is the success of three things, talent nerves and Simon .
The best part ? He is so good, capitalism says I’ll see him again.......hehe
there is always a you in the mix to one up things. The lady judge right off the bat called him a coal headed for diamond. We knew he wasn’t a house hold name as you compare
We know he could be tho.
VERY cool. Amazing voice, to put it mildly.
Wasn’t there an old joke that an opera is a place where a woman gets stabbed in the back, but instead of bleeding she sings.
Same here. Just WOW. If he can sing like this with no training just imagine in a few years. He's going to have people begging to train him.
Liked the first male judge when this guy said he was going to sing opera, like "oh jeesh" and Simon suddenly looking up when he started singing.
Gee the guy din't go on the show to perform a whole opera.
*rme* Get real
I just this mornin listened to it two more times........
besides Paul’s great voice the editing of the piece is equal to his talent......what a great mornin bump
and just listened again a couple times and the cross of the editing and Pauls voice is so great.Addictining actually
Absolutely amazing.
Loved it. Brought tears to my eyes, and gave me goose bumps. And I hate opera! LOL...
Can’t say I’ve ever seen a crowd go wild and give someone a standing O for opera, either. :-)
The man has a very special gift, no doubt about it.
just had to treat myself again ...this is awesome but I think the editing to tell the story is equal to the talent of Paul
