im sure michael jackson regreted that fall out boy remake


But the Alien Ant Farm one was better than the original imo

true,

still, legends have taken years to establish their name.
I feel its pretty weak for an artist to cover a song, instead of creating something original, then be recognized for a song already done.

imagine if glee did end up remaking lose yourself, it would be killed, and butchered. Not to mention it would end up on those stupid "Songs from Glee" Cd's

Would it also cost $200k to sample it, or would that have a different price?
