Paul Potts

Paul Potts has captured the hearts and minds of millions of people around the world.

When the shy cellphone salesman from South Wales auditioned on Britain's Got Talent, in his now infamous 70 dollar suit, he impressed even the most skeptical.

Now, Paul is working with Simon Cowell and is releasing his first album 'Once Chance.'

Great show tonight.  Aw heck, most nights are pretty good, but Paul Potts is a great story that we all need to hear.   By the way, putting clips on the net is the smartest thing you could have done - now we can all share. Cheers,

This guy is the greatest. What a feel good story! I never watched the actual show but got it via email and wondered what had happened to him. When you asked Paul what he thought resonated with the audience, he couldn't identify it. But it was so obvious to everyone watching. He was humble, obviously shy, unassuming, a little awkward, not slick at all, an every day guy who just took a chance. His voice was so fantastic and it appeared he may not have realized how great he was. People love that innocence. A pure Cinderalla story. I am going out to buy his album today! Great show by the way....

It was about 2 month ago when, on a "down" day, I received and e-mail from Dan Millman, telling me to go watch a UTube video.  When I watched this UTube version of Paul's debut on Britain's Got Talent, it filled my heart with joy, yes Joy! some of us don't experience that on a regular basis.  It was just what I needed that day.  Seeing Simon Cowell show his sensitive and joyful side brought tears to my eyes. Or, was it Paul Potts rendition of Nessum Dorma?  Regardless, it was a priceless event that has brought so much pleasure to so many.   When my daughter said you were bringing this lovely man, his story and his voice to The Hour I said, great! I was excited.  It's not just Paul's voice, it's the story behind his success and the chance he took to make it happen, to be here and everywhere!Thanks!
