Write-Up:
I'm betting most who hear this will be like "I didn't know this wasn't an original by Heart" but yep folks Heart ripped this off... or did they? No they didn't actually. They were given permission to do the song but no one had any idea that Hearts version would do so well commercially. Hearts version spent a few weeks at No.1 on the Billboard hot 100 but unfortunately that data can't be used to bump this song. i-Ten (Not to be confused with rap artist I-10 who coincidentally enough made a song titled "Alone" too) was not quite so successful with this tune. You can almost tell why as it just feels off. I think it's because it's slower paced and not as passionate as Heart's version. It's kind of interesting that this song is one of the most used songs on American Idol but not so much.

Best Version IMO:
Heart - Bad Animals - 1987
