Music for the Soul


Be sure to activate the World Music Player when you visit Live+Love+Learn. It features a collection of music from all over the world by various artists. Music is salve for the wounds and aches of the soul. It's a balm that cleanses anger, fear, anxiety and sorrow.

I want to make particular note of a young artist by the name of Paul Potts. Paul was a car phone salesman with a heavy rural accent who auditioned on Britain's Got Talent. Paul was awkward and unassuming. He came onstage, looking sloppy, overweight, with crooked teeth and a bad hair cut. Simon was already sneering.

But when he began to sing 'Nessun Dorma', this voice of an angel filled the studio and the audience and judges began to cry. Listen for yourself. PaulPottsUK.com
