Amazing. Truly.

I became aware of this story by reading the blog of an efriend, Joy. It made her cry. It deeply moved me, both because of the power of the performance and the refreshment of truly seeing substance triumph over style, when so often the opposite is the case these days. This audtion is an amazing video, because while watching it you really get the sense that it is like the documenting of a bolt out of the blue.

Paul, it turns out, has had some training and performance experience, but only stictly amateur stuff. Here is his website with more videos.

yeah, that video was neat to watch. i especially enjoyed seeing the judges' facial expressions change during the performance.

I agree with Meg; great to see the judges faces morph! Powerful voice.
