I will let the clip speak for itself:

Posted: 3/8/09 at 9:22amWow- a lot of potential! Just think 10 years from now! It is funny that all of these...Got Talent Shows all have the same format and same over the top drama thing. The only thing that was different is that the female judge didn't cry! Thanks for sharing!

Posted: 3/8/09 at 2:43pmOMG, that was unbelievable. Sounds like a 30 year old's voice coming out of a 15 year old. Just.....WOW

He's probably right, he probably will win (vincero). However, hate to piss on the parade, but at fifteen he shouldn't be singing Nessun Dorma. Those top Bs before he's ready for them will leave him with no voice by the time he's 40, if not 30.
ETA: Maybe I'm wrong, that wasn't the original key, was it? Maybe they weren't top Bs. My sense of pitch isn't awake today.
deep-delving, dark, deliberate you would say
browsing on spire and bogland; but today
our sky-blue slates are steaming in the sun,
our yachts tinkling and dancing in the bay
like racehorses. We contemplate at last
shining windows, a future forbidden to no one.

Posted: 3/8/09 at 6:16pmI thought there was a rule about tenors in talent shows having to sing "Nessun Dorma".

Posted: 3/8/09 at 6:21pmIf not, then there should be. This is a great way to screw up a good voice.

Posted: 3/8/09 at 6:36pmHe sang the aria a full step down. He's got some issues with when he covers, but his voice is certainly special, and I hope he connects with some great folks who can guide him well.

He sounded a bit like a high baritone to me instead of a tenor. I also heard him take a breath in an awkward spot, but otherwise he really was excellent. I'm sure if Amanda Holden (with Britian's Got Talent) had heard him she would have teared up! I know I did a little
I understand from the friend who brought the link to my attention in the first place that he sang THIS IS THE MOMENT in a subsequent performence. The link to that is below.

Posted: 3/8/09 at 10:22pmI like This is the Moment much better! Still needs to work on the stage presence but he's great at his age!

Posted: 3/8/09 at 10:36pmamazing performance. The only thing I am worried about with him is that he sounds like an opera singer doing another genre, and it may hurt him as he does different songs each week. But, still GREAT voice.

Posted: 3/8/09 at 11:19pmWell, hopefully, no matter what the outcome of this competition is, this guy will get a really good teacher who will help him through the rough spots.

My Aussie friend has advised me that young Mr. Vincent has come out on top in the Australia's Got Talent final. I found this video posted last week.
