Awesome. Best version I’ve ever heard of Billie Jean. No wonder Cornell gave David huge props this performance. Chris was so impressed he offered him his song “Light On” for his album.

I wouldn’t have a problem with this if he would have given props to cornell’s version.

jinkaz03,

In addition to what I’ve already stated (and still stand by), Chris Cornell himself made no fuss over it at all. In fact, at one point he even added a YouTube video of this performance to his MySpace! Maybe you didn’t listen to his radio interview with Ryan Seacrest but he was genuinely happy and praised Cook wholeheartedly. For that alone, this discussion should be dropped. It’s Cornell’s version, Cornell watched the performance and loved it. And that’s all that matters in my book.

I agree with TheHeartbreakBabe. If Chris Cornell didn’t mind, why should we?
