| I think Rhydian definitely has potential. When I said I don't get the appeal, I mean I'm surprised people out there actually like him. The dude is not the norm. First time I saw a video he creeped me out a little. But as a singer he's good. I see why Jim reached out to be on the album (if that's the story) As a performer, he's over the top. Which was Meat's appeal...so many years ago. > There's not many quasi-operatic singers out there who are > or will be successful in the charts.
