was listening to the radio a few days ago and they were talkin about 3 albums. metallica - death magnetic, guns n’ roses - chinese democracy and ac/dc - black ice. The reviewer was full of praise for acdc and metallica but was saying how bad the latest guns n’ roses album was, but then he said theres 1 track on the album ‘This I Love’ that would be huge if it was covered by the right vocalist. the guy mentioned a few singers like peter andre and a few others but also Rhydian. so i searched for the song (got it off itunes in the end couldnt find it on youtube) and it would suit Rhydian so much, a beautiful ballad with romantic lyrics. anyone else heard it? what would you think of Rhydian doing a cover version? the radio guy was right that axl rose’s vocals are slighty to whiney on this one but the song is still amazing.

Hi Classicrock, can’t say that I am that familiar with guns n’ roses but checked out the song on youtube, various recordings.  Not really sure that it would be a song that would suit Rhydian but having said that, I don’t think there is a song that exists that he couldn’t sing and make it his own!  Interesting that the radio reviewer should mention Rhydian…...

yea i thought it a little strange too, ill try to find a link for the interview. he did mention some awful popstars but Rhydian was the only class one he mentioned

well this is great at least he was thought of for once its
normally leona all the time makes a nice change.

yes, that’s great to hear he’s been mentioned as a choice singer for a rock song!
I like that!

this is about the only place i can find the song on youtube

random vid, but at least you can hear the song in full

Thanks for the link Classicrock - yes I could see Rhydian singing that and making it his own.  He has this amazing ability to sing ANYTHING!
