The Billie Eilish song is superior, and it has Johnny Marr playing on it

I think the Billie song has the disadvantage of not having the movie yet. Sometimes the context of the song for me can be enhanced by how good the movie is

You Know My Name was the perfect fit for the DC JB reboot.

God, I dislike Chris Cornell's voice. I just have an immediate visceral negative reaction to his timbre.

I love his voice. Solo, Soundgardem, Audioslave, TOTD, it doesn’t matter. He could do it all. Write, play, sing.

No contest here for me, it's easily the Eilish song.

The Cornell song is...not good. I really love Soundgarden but I think they're a "more than the sum of their parts" thing, I don't enjoy Chris's music or voice outside of that context.

I'm not saying he couldn't sing, that would be ridiculous. It's just a personal preference thing; I find the "color" of his voice very unappealing. It instantly makes me want to listen to anything else

I do like some Euphoria Morning songs but other than that -- no thanks. On this round, it doesn't help that the song itself is nothing special

That Eilish song is really nice. Cornell song sucks - never liked it.

It’s really, really bad.

Listened to them back to back and the comparison was very unkind.

No Time to Die, and it's not even close.
