The Edinburgh Playhouse Reviews

Click for complete Paul Potts concert review from edinburgh-life.com

I watched his first ever television appearance on 'Britain's Got Talent' with as much scepticism as everyone else (including the judges), until that is, he opened his mouth and I was lifted gently into the air and taken on a journey that left me both breathless and awestruck. I duly bought his album and have enjoyed it immensely. Last night however, I witnessed his (almost) full potential. This shy, unassuming superstar wooed his audience not only with his voice, but also his personality. He interspersed the magnificence of the music with amusing anecdotes of the 'real' Paul Potts. There are no airs and graces with this man, no pomposity to his music, just one enormous heart that filled the stage, spilling over onto the ever more adoring audience. The two (yes two) standing ovations he received were truly deserved.
