Pay devil-horned homage to the King of Pop and the musical geniuses that realized his songs rock awesomer with electric guitar as these heavy metal cover specialists play amped-up versions of everything from "Thriller" and "Billy Jean" to a power-ballad take on "I'll Be There" and, of course, the all-star 1985 feel-good megahit, "We Are The World" -- which serves as a reminder that if you're not Cyndi Lauper, you aren't the World.
