Luckily for Paul Potts, it isn't the music that counts, it's the stirring personal saga of impossible dreams and dogged struggle against the odds.
Thanks to the ITV show Britain's Got Talent and the magic wand of Simon Cowell, Potts has been transformed from a chubby 37-year-old mobile phone salesman from Port Talbot into the latest phenomenon of Classitainment.
Boosted by a tabloid press that's happy to define anybody in a dinner jacket who can do a stag-night Nessun Dorma as an "opera star", Potts is embarking on a six-month world tour encompassing Europe, the Americas and the Antipodes.
