The Score Magazine | Reality Revelry
And he might have given up forever , had it not been for Britain ’ s Got Talent - the talent show for today ’ s generation , created by Simon Cowell and co-produced by his Entertainment company Syco TV , which last week was celebrating a double whammy . In a first for a reality TV format , on both sides of the Atlantic - Britain and America - it was at number one , with more than 13 million viewers tuning in to see Paul win the final of the British version . The audition , that was held a week before the final only saw Paul Potts very apologetically walking into the Cardiff stage and stating in his £ 35 Tesco suit to his judges Simon , Amanda Holden and Piers Morgan that he was going to sing opera . Little did they know that they were looking at their winner . And on D-Day , Paul only remembered himself shaking like a jelly not knowing what happened after he started singing . “ When I stopped singing , there were a few seconds when my heart was racing because I had absolutely no idea what the judges were going to say .” says Paul . They were moved . Humble as we see know him to be , all he wants to do is start a family and take his wife Julie-Ann , 27 , on a safari . He also adds “ I hope to get my teeth done . I don ’ t think I ’ d suit one of those dazzling Hollywood smiles , but I ’ d like to get the cap sorted as I ’ m very conscious about it when I sing ”. His feet have barely touched the ground since his victory and he ’ s got a host of engagements to prepare for . He will be back to the UK to start work on his first album . And , of course , there is also the VIP performance for which he was competing in Britain ’ s Got Talent - appearing in front of Her Majesty the Queen at the Royal Variety Performance in early December . All is well that ends well . “ All of this is like a fairy tale and I ’ m terrified I ’ m going to wake up soon and find I ’ ve dreamt it all ,” says Paul .

I just called to say I love you- Stevie wonder
Stevie Wonders ’ claim to fame , after he dropped the “ Little ” ( From being “ Little ” Stevie Wonder ). Everybody knows this song ! You ’ ve either heard it ‘ somewhere ’, or someone a generation or so before you loves this track . I wouldn ’ t hesitate to call it the Mother of all love songs ( At least in the 60 ’ s ) and thus , a classic . What not too many people know is that he re-wrote the song in 2009 , changing the words to “ I am here because he loves you .”, By “ he ” he meant his father who was in the hospital with brain cancer at the time and whose dying wish was to get Ty Pennington to rebuild his house for his wife and children .

Zombie-The Cranberries
A popular karaoke track , it is actually a protest song by the Irish band The Cranberries from their 1994 album ‘ No Need to Argue ’. The song speaks of the troubles in Northern Ireland . The Cranberries wanted so much to have their opinions expressed that they used a heavy guitar riff which was the sound that was popular at the time , very different from their usual alternative style . A risk they ’ re probably very glad they took .
