How is his sing so entralling? I felt as if there's more emotion/substance coming from this guy, than from Pavar/Domingo when they sing Nassun Dorma. Is it because it's a shorter segment, he can project stronger w/o worrying about fatigue? Or has he worked this bit simply to the point of perfection? | ||

paul potts is the same way. he's not on that stage anymore when the music comes on and the result is magnificent. it helps far more than his already touching back story of a hard childhood. when i watched pavarotti singing 'nessun dorma' live and listened to his recordings of the same song, i felt that it was just cold. the blind bocelli's original of 'time to say goodbye' on the other hand still blows away pott's version (don't get me wrong, i think potts is still damn good) perhaps because of experience or the fact that it was his song. i wish for the best for potts! bocelli and sarah brightman edit: it's interesting that paul chose that particular song. aside from its popularity he himself is quite similar to bocelli when bocelli was found - both were discovered unexpectedly and praised for their phenomenal skill, with one being bullied as a kid and the other blind from glaucoma. | ||

Is it because it's a shorter segment, he can project stronger w/o worrying about fatigue? Or has he worked this bit simply to the point of perfection? i'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with his actual vocal ability or practice. the difference between this guy and other famous opera singers is that in pott's performance you can sense the extreme level of emotion, of a guy singing with pure heart and soul, of a man who sings as if he has nothing to lose and everything to gain. pavarotti and those other famous opera singers get paid millions to simply stand on stage, take big breaths, and sing. they're already at the top and they know that they'll pretty much be booked for gigs all year, year after year (esp. since pavarotti is pretty much a regular at vienna's new year's concert which is a huge huge gig to have). that's not to say that they don't give it their all every performance, but i'm sure most people enjoy the rags-to-riches stories of amatuers working hard and making it big than of mad talented people going to the top music schools in the world, studying with the best teachers, and then riding their talent/education to opera fame. it's the same reason why a lot of people enjoy watching college basketball/football more than the actual pros. put him and pavarotti against each other in a competition, though, and i'm pretty sure the difference will be obvious. | ||
