I plan to do an ICFA update at some point.
Until then: if you have not yet seen the latest Britain's Got Talent clip and feel like getting your heartstrings tugged, check out this opera duo. The staging of this one irritates me a bit. But you know, at the end of the day these are nice kids with good voices, and BGT's "appearance does not equal talent" message is one we could stand to hear more often.
I'd feel better still about it if a) the BGT audience seemed to learn that message and b) the American talent shows would get behind it in the same way. But, you know. One internet clip at a time.
