        fwiw, this isn't UK Idol, but Britain's Got Talent. Minor quibble. So this guy is up against knife jugglers, plate spinners and such, not pretty pop songstresses with great cans but no singing ability.

            If what this guy says is true

            "German TV reports, that he was on a opera-singing school in the past. Even took lessons with Pavarotti. And English Tv knows about that, but holds back the information for not ruining the "Cinderella-Story".
            Don´t get me wrong, I like that guy very much! But if this would be true, and he wouldnt be the amateur he is told to be, it would definitively leave a bad taste... "

              I saw that a couple of days ago, simply awsome... but you have to see opera live to get the whole "effect"

                What Ron said sounds right, it's not like a TV company to manipulate something for viewing figures is it?

                He's a good singer none the less, but having been lucky enough to see the 4 tenors back in the 90s, he doesn't have the punch or quite the emotion that the fat Italian bloke does. Also he's lacking 15 chins, he's only on 2, he has to eat more pies.

                  Exactly what I was thinking! He's too good for a one-hit-wonder pop band!

                    I saw that Britians Got Talent show. He's pretty amazing. Did they actually say that he has had no training? I don't think they mentioned it directly but there is pretty much no way you can do that without some direction.

                        That is certainly NOT American Idol..where Image comes before talent.

                        They had a kid named "Uri" ( I think) in Scandanavia..doing classic rock tunes..fuck, was he good!!

                        Uli covers that song you know..he doesn't sing it of course, that would be hilarious!!

                          According to Wikipedia:

                          Paul has appeared on national and local television and radio. His claim to fame is his 1999 appearance on Michael Barrymore's My Kind of Music. He has spent two summers touring Northern Italy training with one of the major opera schools, training under top teachers Mario Melani and Svetlana Sidrova, and has taken part in master classes with Vilma Vernocchi, Katia Ricciarelli and Luciano Pavarotti. Future plans include a summer tour with the RPO.

                              He is certainly no beginner, but since he work in a phone warehouse I guess he is still to be considered "an amateur". He is pretty good, but I agree that much of it is the "cinderella-story" the production company is trying to add.

                              Here is his other appearance, in the semi-final:

                              He still has a long way to go before singing like this, though:
