   Wow, what a magnificent voice.  I was getting ready to slap Simon, for he always has some "smart" comment to say...
I wonder how he's doing; he HAS to be singing...I mean, it would be sacrilege if he were not.

Oh wow, I like the "coal with a diamond" comment. That is perfect for "don't judge a book by the cover".

That's sooo great   He deserves to be there and singing in the best Opera Houses of the world; I'm glad that people are getting to know him..

Dang, he's really really good hehe.

Wow.  Some voice.

I have that video clip and i play it quite often, and every time I listen to it I get shivers all through my body.  He's magnificent.

the first time i played this clip, i had the sound turned off on my computer, and i really enjoyed it.

i preferred the woman with the steel bikini who made sparks from it, or the gruesome magic show where they chopped people's heads off and blood spurted.

He won of course, singing in the royal variety performance (with a dreadful line up) and his album is doing well.

My sister showed us this video yesterday, and I remembered your thread  (and of course I cried my eyes out AGAIN).  I think it is time to bring this topic back from the dusty files!

nessun dorma is the most beautiful song in the world.

so this guy won, and then in america's got talent neal e boyd (also a salesman) went on to win singing the same song.




it's the year of nessun dorma!

I have to post the pavarotti version, i have to.

Good choice, because if you do a real comparison, its pretty clear that the first two are pretty good, they not masters.

I am not one for opera, but he was amazing.  And I may have to change my mind and buy more tissues. 

Janet

Definitely right about needing a tissue!
Didn't expect that voice, wow, he did an excellent job.

Haha! I LOVED that shot where Simon Cowel's mouth was just hanging open. That's something you don't see often. But hell, what an amazing voice.
