Whitesupraboy2 Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Maybe but how many bargain bins are full of talent show winners? G4 anyone? Michelle (inside every fat lass there's a thin one trying to get out or, in my case, maybe two) McManus? Give him his 15 minutes. It'll keep us going until the next Next Big Thing. but for some reason it does seem a bit different. Maybe because he seems to of impressed all ages.

RedM Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 but for some reason it does seem a bit different. Maybe because he seems to of impressed all ages. For now, maybe, but with so many talent shows and the fickle audiences with their short attention spans he'll be forgotten by the time the record hits the shops. These shows aren't about discovering talent. It's about advertising, column inches and getting people to make a phonecall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juanchan Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Whilst I agree with the comments about reality TV show winners being in bargain bins after a week, there's something different about that opera guy. It's not the sort of thing you're going to get on Radio 1, and whilst he may fade from the media limelight, he'll probably succeed in his field. I hope he does well - very humble guy with little confidence in himself but harbouring an amazing talent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 As long as he makes himself enough for a decent life he's a winner all the way. This record deal should do just that for him even if he fades from public life. Did you read that he spent all his (about £12k) savings on singing lessons at an Opera school? That all went badly wrong and was when he lost all his self confidence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorin Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 What happened to the black guy who was bringing up his brothers three kids? I could see that song getting released as a single. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
