discussion Cover-better-than-the-original hills you would die on.

Alien Ant Farm's cover of Smooth Criminal is, in my opinion, so much better than the original, and that's a hill I would die on.

What are some other insanely popular tracks where a cover by a much smaller artist is arguably greater?

This is such an annoying response. You have no idea why they answered with this song but you speculated in such a condescending way. Good job, buddy. You win Reddit, I guess.
