Chris Cornell – Billie Jean
SharePosted on 27. May, 2007 by Gallivanter in Music Reviews, Reviews
From Soundgarden to Audioslave, and then the kickass theme song to Casino Royale, “You Know My Name”, Chris Cornell’s back with a second solo album (there was a previous one?). I like his voice, has that edgy rock feel to it. It’s a pretty decent effort. Of all the songs on the album, it was his bluesy cover of Michael Jackson’s Billie Jean that stood out the most. 6/10

sabrina It could be the fact that nothing beats the original, still I give him brownie points for not desecrating it.

You should see it live!!! His voice is actually better than it was 10 years ago. What a stage presence!!! You can see it live at Yahoo Live Sets.
