One Chance

Amazon.com:
Britain's Got Talent winner Paul Potts has spent most of his life feeling 'insignificant'.Bullied at school for being 'different', he realized growing up that he had one true friend and that was his voice.Singing was his escape.He was able to lose himself in his own little world - the vicious words of his tormentors replaced by hauntingly beautiful lyrics and melodies that lifted his heart and spirit.It was a love, a passion, a lifeline that would follow Paul into adulthood and help him through many more periods of adversity.



Though it's fair to say that when Paul strolled awkwardly - almost apologetically - onto the Cardiff stage for his first Britain's Got Talent audition a week before that final, in his now infamous £35 Tesco suit, and announced to Simon and fellow judges Amanda Holden and Piers Morgan that he was going to sing opera, they never thought for one minute they were looking at their winner.Until he opened his mouth and started to sing.

Rating: - Can't review yet
Well I would like to tell you about the cd, unfortunately I haven't received it yet. It is now May 29th and the "estimated" was May 1, 2009 - May 18, 2009. Amazon keeps sending me links to my email to rate the cd and I'm tired of getting them and deleting them. So hopefully now that I've "rated" this product I will stop getting emails about it.
Rating: - Fine Voice, Badly Produced Album
Pleasant in single-cut doses, soporific in larger quantities, Paul Potts' one-hit wonder potential is high.The album "One Chance" is badly produced, as it only shows one facet of his fine voice.It leaves me wondering if slow lyrical songs with an orchestra are all he has to offer and/or wants to do.He at least needs a better manager, if not a better voice coach.
