That's ridiculously cool.

It's not on those, but he won the whole shebang. We got Clay Aiken.

Lucky us.

I give him two six packs:

Why are there no men left willing to sing this shit?

[Tai]

PS. We saw some amazing arias in Vienna - I wish we all got off our asses and stopped watching American Idol.

[Postal]

That is pretty cool. I don't understand something though. Was he allowed to sing opera the whole time? I thought they picked songs they had to sing.

[Sir Lucius]

It's more of a talent show than a singing show. I don't think you even have to sing, you just have to display some kind of talent, like lion taming or juggling.

[Circuit]

I think your thread title is why Postal's confused. This is for Britain's Got Talent, not the British version of American Idol.

[Fitty]

That guy is amazing.

[Iceman]

Thank you Sir Lucius

You've reminded me to do something I keep forgetting to do. To go through and find the names of all the opera songs that I know (despite not being a huge fan of opera) and download them all.

Who did win America's Got Talent? I'm assuming it was someone who could juggle knives while farting out God Bless America or something.

[Kermit]

Just for the record, he is kind of a ringer (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Potts).

Still, very cool that you could find someone working an every-day job with that kind of talent. I bet he's a blast at karaoke night.

[Snake]

Buy that man a keg.
