Damien Leith - Nessun Dorma

I personally think this performance was overrated. It may have been worthy of a "touchdown" in a reality show context, but I feel like the judges were waiting for the next "The Prayer" type moment like they had with Anthony Callea, to the point where they just ate this up. By the way, this doesn't hold a candle to the latter.

I agree. I think Nessum Dorma is done to death.

True he doesn't have an operatic voice. I thought he did a fair rendition but he is notRussell Watson. Having said that I love Damien and I love his voice.

Glad he won the competition.....excellent

@renilicious Also, it's not about what I accomplished lately. I murder Nessun dorma. Puccini is turning in his grave when I sing it. :) My point is that he's capable of an even better performance, if he had another song or time to properly prepare. My beef is that it seems that people behind these shows only know one aria and that's Nessun dorma. There's a gazillion of cool arias of all kinds, but everyone from Paul Potts onward sings Nessun dorma. Let's hear something else, pls.

@renilicious Why the hostility? I really like this clip. He has a great voice. He sings it really well. The english part kicks ass. The italian on the other hand, is ridiculous. And it's really a shame, because, if he did it all in english, it would have been great. Damien is great in this clip, but whoever came up with the great idea that he should learn Nessun dorma in a week should be kicked in the ass.

Don't be so picky Damo's not pretending to be Pavorotti or even David Hobson this is a popular version of Nessum Dorma- done by some other? pop star already. Yes it well open the door to classical music for those who have never been exposed to it. All the better for the real opera singers. Go Damo.

@apoc214 And you, my dear, are what the rest of us call an "opera snob". It's performing songs like Nesun Dorma on shows like Idol that opens up a whole new world of music to people (and kids) who wouldn't necessarily know about it. So just get over yourself. Also, this song was chosen FOR Damien. He didn't choose it. No, it's not perfect because he's not an opera singer but he gave it a smashing shot and won the comp. What have you accomplished lately?

I hope someone could do this on American Idol... HE SLAYED THIS SONG!

Well, I seriouselly don't know why everyone fels the need to sing nessun dorma, as if it is a must and some sort of piece that all great artists are supposed to sing. I guess this does not bother english speaking people, but he utterly murders the Italian language (and I am not Italian). Also, the ending was a messup. So my point is: Leave Nesun dorma and opera in general to opera singers unless you can really pull it off.

strykerau

he learned the italian for this song in the week which i thought was amazing when i heard it first time

He can't sing opera, it's out of his range.
