Editorial Review:

Album Description:
Former cell phone salesman and now Britians Got Talent winner Paul Potts has spent most of his life feeling insignificant and bullied, but says that his voice was always his one true friend, a voice that Simon Cowell calls simply magical.

Amazon.com:
Britain's Got Talent winner Paul Potts has spent most of his life feeling 'insignificant'. Bullied at school for being 'different', he realized growing up that he had one true friend and that was his voice. Singing was his escape. He was able to lose himself in his own little world - the vicious words of his tormentors replaced by hauntingly beautiful lyrics and melodies that lifted his heart and spirit. It was a love, a passion, a lifeline that would follow Paul into adulthood and help him through many more periods of adversity.



Though it's fair to say that when Paul strolled awkwardly - almost apologetically - onto the Cardiff stage for his first Britain’s Got Talent audition a week before that final, in his now infamous £35 Tesco suit, and announced to Simon and fellow judges Amanda Holden and Piers Morgan that he was going to sing opera, they never thought for one minute they were looking at their winner. Until he opened his mouth and started to sing.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Paul Potts CD
He obviously has a delightful voice, but he's also obviously an amateur. Even with orchestration so close to Il Divo's (and that was a cheap shortcut in my estimation) it wasn't enough to hide the fact he should spend a good solid year with a voice coach before he decides he's professional. It's an enjoyable CD but I wasn't impressed enough to play it very often.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - absolutely amazing
Personally I can't stand opera because I don't understand the words. With Paul Potts the words don't matter. His voice grabs you and floats you right through the song and leaves you begging for more. Thoroughly recommend for any art enthusiast..



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great
I don't know what it is, but Paul Potts makes you listen to him. Maybe it's his vibrato, but he makes you want to listen.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - One Chance Paul Potts
Best I have ever heard....I am 72 (USA) Wonderful.
There are not enough adjectives to give Paul Potts
the credit he deserves. Makes my heart happy and my eyes leak.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Simply outstanding
Many seem to want to compare Paul Potts to the great opera tenors past and present and point out that he is not technically as proficient as they are/were. These observations may be true, they may be opinion, they may be irrelevant seeing how most of the songs on One Chance are NOT from operas though sung in an operatic style. I, for one, couldn't care less how he ranks with opera snobs. I'd bet the majority who bought his album don't care either. Paul Potts' claim to fame is that he delivers ... Read More
