Top Comments of this video!! :3
Anyone else feel bad when the original artists are relatively unheard of?
ETA: For those still nitpicking my comment nearly a year later (lol)...
I am speaking in comparison. Like, there are many cover songs where a general audience has never heard of the original version. Sometimes regardless if you are familiar with the original artist or not.

In my opinion, the whole point of artists covering songs and making them hits should be; "Hey guys, here's my big hit. Now that I've got your attention, go check out the original that was released years ago that deserved to be massive, but wasn't so I decided to give it a brand new life." OR "Hey, this old song sounds kinda like something that would be big today, let's revamp it a bit", NOT "Oh this song was big for that artist, let me just copy them"

Without You is a bit of a cursed song. Its two original writers from Badfinger died a or so decade apart, at their own hands, Harry Nilsson who first covered it died young, from his alcohol addiction and Mariah Carey sang after a divorce and unnecessary upset herself. It one of those melancholy filled songs, that best not sung by people with issues.

this is like when someone says a joke and nobody hears it and then someone else says it louder and everybody laughs
