Wow - what an emotional roller coaster ride!

Not too sure how much post editing contributed to the kaleidoscope of feelings, but I felt doom and gloom vibes from the judges' initial, somewhat jaded reactions, swiftly intensifying to utter joy, elation and awe as this humble man delivered a most heart felt and beautiful rendition of Nessun Dorma – what an amazing talent!

Cheers

Dennis

Classic!!!

I love it when these types of 'talent' shows are forced to judge on talent alone, rather than fluff.

A real victory of substance over style.

It's funny to watch the judge's reactions. It's like "Oh crap!! What do we do here...?" this one doesn't fit easily into a few predictable cliche boxes.

Well done, mate. Whoever you are

Yes the judges were at the mercy of the audience...

Doesn't sound like an 'Opera' singers name does it. He'll have to change it something like Paulo Potterotti

I too saw this performance on TV on one of the morning shows, and it was pretty much as you saw it in that You-tube clip. I was stunned, amazed, and I did feel a wave of emotion run through me as he hit the final notes.

What surprised me almost more is that seeing it again I had exactly the same reaction as this morning, even knowing what was to come. He has a stunning voice and I'm sure he has a bright new career in front of him, regardless of whether or not he wins this tv competition.
