it's real awesome

i never was a fan of any opera songs
but this particular performance
really took me by surprise
and immediately loving it
and making it my phone ringtone
:)

it was the combination of
his humbleness, his personal background
the reaction from the audience and judges
and the way he sang the song of course
- the clip shows it all

well.. i think..
Pavarotti's, Sarah Brightman's, Andrea Borcelli's
and perhaps even the original and other versions
did not move me much or make the same effect

but this guy - Paul Pott
especially his audition version
was really amazing and superb !

(and at the time i was drafting this post
the hit for that video in youtube
has already reached over 9 million)

oh ya.. by the way..
he did win that competition - Britain's Got Talent
and as they say.. the rest is history..

* the full song is here as sang by him during the final
* the full lyric is here and the history of Nessun Dorma
