The Best Billie Jean Cover?

Chris Cornell’s, as performed, unplugged and solo, in Sweden, 2007.

His full-band set-up version of the Michael Jackson hit during the MSN Live Series in 2008 (I think) comes in as a close 2nd.

    Genius…
    I don’t think he could rescue some of the recent songs though..!

      you mean his recent songs? i’m not really fond of all the tracks in “carry on” and “euphoria morning”, but hey, i actually like “wave goodbye” and “silence the voices”.

    I really do love this version, as opposed to the horrid album version, but for me Ian Brown’s cover is the best.

      Ah yes, Ian Brown’s version. It’s nice as well, and it helped me forget about the Michael Jackson’s version. I guess I just like Chris’ take better because it’s purely on guitar.
