The cover is a okay rock song thanks to the song itself. But it is not anything more and where is the engine in the song, the bassmelody? The beautiful thing with this song is the originallity in Jackson's version. The cover is dull and boring compared to the original. Like reading the morning newspaper instead of singing the lyrics. Just a little twist like strings or brass would have done the cover thousand times better. Even I could do a more interesting cover of this song, even in a marchingband setting.

I always thought Michael Jackson's ''billie jean'' lacks something..it's ey bit boring actually. The rock version sounds much better, much more expressive,...Michael Jackson is just not convincing

This cover is very good, more rock n' roll than the original.

The cover version completely sucks, & the song sounds totally wrong redone in a heavy metal style. I've always hated heavy metal music, & I especially loathe electric guitars in heavy metal songs. My favorite type of music is disco (any type of dance music, or what I refer to as party music. I love synthesizers is music. They give songs a unique style and sound. Since I love to dance, I voting for the Michael Jackson version.
