Thoughts on Rik Waller returning to the charts?
Big Guns
25-09-2015
Would anyone like to see this? He had such an amazing voice and I think he should be given a second chance. With all the X factor acts flopping, it would be nice to see someone unique and different from the crowd being given another go.

Here is his soulful version of I will Always Love you to Remind us what we've been missing:

One of the greatest music videos ever made.

He could sing and in all fairness it wasn't a bad cover but the video was absolutely awful. Rik ended up looking as big as a house thanks to the lighting and the very plain walls.

Strange thread title. He doesn't even have any music out, let alone anything that would 'return to the charts'.

Oh God No - I still have nightmares about that song and video today.

I know he married a fan.....who was one of THREE yes THREE people who turned up to his gig!

I heard that Dolly Parton cried with happiness when she heard Waller's version of her song.

Yes. She said that Waller took the lyrics in a way that she never could, and his interpretation of the words was deserving of a Grammy.

I believe she famously called his video, 'our generation's Mona Lisa'

LMAO How funny!

I read an article about ex-X Factor contestants on here and it said he can only yodel now.

Maybe a nice Duet With Lucy Spraggan? A sequal to tea and Toast?

His rich tones would blend perfectly with her brand of folk pop. We might get a new "I know him so well " out of it or something.

Anyways, glad to have him back in the recording studio.

I'm hoping for something more upbeat than last time. I'd like to see how he shoots a poppy video. I just hope they use the same location as last time.
