Sometimes songs shouldn't be borrowed. Skylar Grey released a compilation of demos, including the original version of "Love the Way You Lie." I could really take or leave the Eminem/Rihanna version even though it was played everywhere. Grey's original version is beautiful however, and I really wish that she had been the one to release it, or at least sing on Eminem's track.
Granted, the chorus works more than the verses, so it is understandable that it was chosen for the hook behind the rap. She's a great songwriter, so I hope she released some of her songs on her own.
