Paul Potts is such an insperation, I would love to see Mr. Potts Knighted by the Queen. So many people have been Knighted and as an American my view is most of them have only been Knighted because of their wealth. Paul Potts should be Knighted for his insperational story of a commen man who has provided such insperation to many in the world who needed affermation and hope in the dignity of man.

I LOVE PAUL`S PICTURE ON HIS ALBUM !
HE ALREADY WAS ‘A DIAMOND’ - HE JUST NEEDED A LITTLE POLISH IS ALL - WHAT A GUY - WHAT A VOICE - SOMETHING IN HIS VOICE SIMPLY COMMANDS YOU TO LISTEN…BREATH TAKING !

I first viewed his videos today, I’m behind the times. I loved it. I loved Pavorotti, but i love Potts more and would love to know the Queen’s reaction.

I love Paul’s CD- it’s so beautiful and really shows that this guy is the real deal. He stunned me on the show but now he’s a real artist with an album and everthing. That’s all so exciting for him.

The C.D. is remarkable. It is in perfect taste, beautiful, restrained, not at any point overorchestrated or overproduced. Potts means every word he is singing, the mark of the true artist, and his voice in remarkably tender and true. The album has been #1 over the globe and is on the way to selling two million copies or more.

From the moment I watched the first clip of his audition on the British show, I was captivated. The second I heard the CD was available, I was in line to get my own. And there will be one in all of my family’ member’s stockings this Christmas! As Wayne said above, the restraint, the lack of overdoing it, was tender and pure. He has my prayers for a wonderful career and that his genuineness holds true, always.

Paul, I never really cared for Opera, that is until now. I must have 2000 cd’s and none were opera. Thank you, Paul, I now love you and opera more than I could have ever imagined. Your album is Kick Ass.

[…] He’s one to watch, not only on Britain’s Got Talent, but beyond. If he wins this competition (and he’s got a great chance!), he could be singing for royalty once again. Last year’s winner, Paul Potts, sang before Queen Elizabeth at the Royal Variety Performance. […]
