Paolo Nutini

I'm in love with Paolo Nutini's scratchy, soulful voice. His live performances outshine any of the prerecorded tracks I've heard and his lyrics are fantastic. He's Scottish and Italian, with a very heavy Scottish accent, which adds even more flavor to his raspy, melodic voice. There's something about this ingenue that convinces me that some people are plopped on this Earth with vocal chords to shake other's souls. Perhaps that was a bit dramatic, but when you hear a voice that brings chills all over and evokes tremendous emotion and passion with each original line, it's magic! :)
Here's my new favorite live performance of Paolo's from 2006:
