Oh God no. It just doesnt work. They've added in an annoying keyboards melody - that is not present on the original - and completely spoilt the brilliant riff played in the chorus that made the song its own in the first place.

Kelly Clarkson, Living Colour and even Bruno Mars have done brilliant covers of this live because they stuck to the original arrangement. This has made a great guitar song into pop garbage. Terrible. He's gonna alienate alot of people with this.
