5.0 out of 5 stars Never enjoyed operatic singing but. . . can't stop listening, 21 Nov 2007

This review is from: One Chance (Audio CD)
My CD finally arrived after having to get by with computer links for several days. Paul's music is playing almost constantly and I never listen without tears even when I am engaged with something else. This music is so not to my taste but I am beyond hope. This singer brings such joy and passion to my ears and heart; like none other. I would love to hear Paul in concert but I am not sure I would survive it. It's on my "must do before I die if it kills me" list anyway. BTW, it's the only item on that list!

4.0 out of 5 stars A singing success story (US Import version), 30 April 2008
By Mart Music (Essex, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
This review is from: One Chance (Audio CD)

This US import version of the One Chance album offers two extra (festive) tracks to the original and was re-issued in September 2007 to appeal to the Christmas shoppers and present-buyers.

My views on Paul Potts remain unchanged since his debut One Chance album release, in that I still think he is a walking, singing example of how talent shows are so successful at both finding undiscovered talent and stirring the public into voicing their opinions and emotions so strongly towards that newly uncovered talent.

Opinions are generally divided between those who are able to take the singer for what he is (an ordinary guy with a natural gift for singing) and those who are grieved that his lack of operatic training has not hindered him in finding success in that music genre.

Technical perfection and music school education should not be prerequisites for being able to perform classical and operatic music, for history reveals many composers and artists who have found success with little or no formal training. One example being the famous Edward Elgar, a largely self-taught composer, who found difficultly in gaining recognition during his early years but whose talents as a classical composer are today unquestioned.

Paul Potts is a singer with a voice, and life story, to touch the hearts of those wanting to enjoy music for what it is - entertainment. Yes, I agree with the critics who claim he is not an opera singer, how could he be when he hasn't had the chance to walk onto that theatre stage yet?

What he has got however is a phenomenal talent for singing opera songs in a way which grabs the attention of those listeners who would often shy away from an area of music sometimes mistakenly regarded as only for the elitist high society.

It took courage for him to stand on that stage, and the public showed their love and admiration for him by electing him as winner so I think he deserves all the success he gets.

The two extra tracks are probably better picked up on the `One Chance Christmas Edition', a two disc version with four extra songs on the second disc. Both versions though are intended to win a few extra fans, and generate a little extra money from the existing fans, but that's standard practice in the music business and shouldn't be taken as criticism towards Paul Potts.

Isn't it amazing what TV and a whole bucket load of hype can do. Read more
