Original Song: "Thriller" by Michael Jackson


Cover Artist: Bailey Pelkman, 17-years-old


How It's Different: The teen transforms Jackson's iconic '80s hit into a mellow, acoustic and emotional tune. The synth-heavy Halloween anthem is almost unrecognizable until she hits the chorus.


Why We Like It: Pelkman has a pretty, breathy voice. More than that, we love that she's apparently a regular 17-year-old from Canada who put herself out there -- and ended up getting upvoted to the number one spot on Reddit on Saturday.


Better than the Original? Please. But it's a fun listen from a very creative teen.
