Eminem didn't "rip it off". He covered and remixed it as a duet with Aerosmiths permission. It's a fantastic rock/rap ballad and I reckon it's fucken cool.

Gotta listen to it in the gargre however as Riff raff aint to keen on Eminem OR Kid Rock. "She's a hard road finding the perfect woman boy......"

John English also done a version of the song, if anyone remembers him?
Pete Townsend wrote 'Behind Blue Eyes' and didnt he get done for dodgy children stuff on his comp?...maybe the lyrics reflect his own sordid past as a teen?.......

I stand corrected, just having a listen to it now. It's alright but I prefer the original.
Thing is, it's not really a rip off because it's a different song. It uses the same tune and chorus but different vocals in the verses. (like what he did with that Dido song)

Well, it was only a matter of time before someone guessed it. He was asking for a song "played on The Rock & Radio Hauraki quite often". I mean, Hauraki only play about 10 songs, and they're the same ones they've been playing since the 80's, ffs.

Nah mate, you got that wrong. It's "kewl".
I hate the bloody re-makes, they are absolute shit, with probably a small number of exceptions, and no, Jimmy, not eminem/aerosmith.

But if the newer band is ripping off a song as a tribute to the original band then that can be ok.

Get Aerosmith's album Pandora's Toys if you like that song. Its got a few other good songs along that line too!
