Britain's got talent - Paul Potts
Cell Phone Salesman in UK Surprises Everyone
Watch the faces of the judges as this guy walks out on the stage. You can almost see what they're thinking as they pre-judge this guy based on his looks and the fact that he's a cell phone salesman. Maybe this guy stopped believing in what people told him for so many years and ultimately started listening to his passion.

Absolutely Fantastic. Hands down.
And I hate opera.
I loved it when Cowell's jaw dropped.
That man was amazing.

He won the whole thing. And he did have training before the show, and he got his teeth fixed

Weird. I was just watching this competition on Youtube for the first time two nights ago. The guy is amazing. I thought that little girl Connie was a doll as well. Such an amazing voice for a 6 year old. Paul is an amazing singer though, wow!

I'm not usually a fan of opera, but I went out and bought his debut CD today. Anyhow i'm sitting at the lights and this guy in his rice rocket has his rap music just a blasting away so I crank up Paul Potts. lol The look I got from the other driver was priceless

I'm so jealous of people who can sing. How cool it would be to be able to make sounds like that with nothing but your voice.

Best part would be making a ton of money and telling your boss to go fly a kite

I try to collect videos and sound bites from the Internet to use at later dates for inspiration. This is one that I have had saved for awhile now. Great performance.
Edit- I think Paul could have asked that female judge, whoever she is, to marry him right then and there, and she would have said yes.
