IMO, it's very bold to remake a Michael Jackson post Motown song ESPECIALLY one like Dirty Diana
while it's really good with it's "Loft party R&B" feel, it doesn't have the power and anger Michael's original exhibited. When the '87 version, you almost feel like it was a real experience
plus The Weeknd's vocals giving out during the last line which is the ultimate twist, was not a good look
7. "just shows how much stronger Mike's voice is" In response to Reply # 0
while certain parts definitely sound similar and i can see where people are comparing, this side by side really shows that Mike's voice blows thw Weeknd's out the water.
i like Weeknd's version, but compared the original? c'mon, son.
