The rich, powerful and mesmerising voice of rising star Paul Potts has touched the hearts of millions since his win on TV’s hot new talent show ‘Britain’s Got Talent”. Watched by 13.5 million in the finals, his hauntingly beautiful rendition of Puccini’s Nessun Dorma stunned the show’s judges and audiences alike, leaving many moved to tears.It has since become one of the all time most watched clips on You Tube, with fans from all over the world clamouring to share in the magic of Paul’s performance and desperate to see and hear more from this quietly unassuming former mobile phone salesman, who very nearly didn't enter the competition because he wasn't sure he was good enough!Paul Potts moves my soul he is just sensational, posts one. A true inspiration, agrees another. Paul, keep sharing your magnificent voice with the world - can’t wait for your debut album.Well, we don’t have to. Within days of his victory in the Britain’s Got Talent finale on June 17, Paul was in a recording studio laying down the tracks for an album that has already made history as the fastest ever to be released. Featuring a diverse range of songs, chosen by Paul himself, it is expected to storm the charts not just here in the UK, but in America, Australia, New Zealand, China all over the globe. Paul’s stunning Nessun Dorma and the equally captivating Time To Say Goodbye (Con Te Partiro), which he sang in the semi final of Britain’s Got Talent, feature alongside welcome surprises like a Spanish version of My Way, which Paul admits was one of his more challenging choices and a truly extraordinary, goosebump-inducing rendition of REM’s Everybody Hurts sung in Italian (Ognuno Soffre).Many of the songs I have chosen have a special place in my heart because of the memories attached to them, such as the hymn Jerusalem which was the first solo I ever did as a young boy treble,’ says Paul. Others I’ve selected simply because I love them and they touch me in some way and all of which have such beautiful melodies.

To have been given the opportunity to make an album of the songs I adore is such an honour. Music has been my passion throughout my life and to have the chance to share that is just incredible.
