Wow…all I can say is Wow

This is a performance by Paul Potts, a mobile phone salesman, as he attempts to sing opera on a British TV show, Britain’s Got Talent (similar to American Idol). Amazing. I had to watch it several times. There’s more on the story as well as some great observations by Scott Monty at The Social Media Marketing blog. Also, thanks to the Chaos Scenario blog for the point.
And just to show you how tough the competition is, check out this story and performance by six-year-old Connie Talbot on the same show. According to the article, “She’s never had a formal singing lesson. Instead, she has had to hone her skills on a £39.99 karaoke machine.”
