These talent shows are often not that amazing, but this cell phone salesman will blow you a way.

BGT FINAL -Paul Potts high quality video/sound

Wow. Like that first judge dude, I was left totally speechless.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDB9zwlXrB8 I felt tears well up in this video, when the first judge summarized what the show is all about... people just like Paul (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Potts). ^_^ (and Marcelo de Ramos (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_otrmEXuVk), apparently).
PS: I think I like opera now. ;)
PPS: And this guy just cells sell phones!? Check out the same song, done by someone else (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONUCPKdGcrk) -- I think I prefer Paul's version :o

omg without musical accompanied, check out 6 year old Connie Talbot: :o
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWNoiVrJDsE (and I thought I had tears welling up when *Paul* was singing... yikes! kinda reminds me of my little girls, I think...)
Is that a guy you want to root for or what?! Very cool.
Another nice find :o
Looks like the audience still loved his guy-next-door super-talent act:

Oh, wow, this guy reminds me of me when I'm seriously sleep deprived:
Lysdexia is fun! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7evtwCKqbE)
I went and watched a bunch more after finding the fist one... The girl that sings over the rainbow, and the other that singes a song from My Fair Lady are the other ones I thought stood out.

Interview with Paul the next morning by "Phil & Fern" (I guess it's like NBC's "Today Show"?) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IqKz1AN7TUo
And when you don't have innate talent, exercise your ability to impersonate celebrities and/or pop culture characters!

The *obvious from the first frame* guy was actually the closest in appearance AND voice to the "real" Britney (http://www.britneyisdead.com/)...
