Landon Smith Transforms Buckcherry's 'Crazy Bitch' into a Soulful Folk Ballad

Landon Smith, the country artist from McDonough, Georgia, has been turning heads on TikTok with his unique folk-style covers of popular songs. Known for originals like If You Want Me Tonight, GFU, and Taking Off to Tennessee, he’s built a loyal fanbase with his heartfelt performances and signature sound. One of his most talked-about covers? A stripped-down, folk-inspired take on Buckcherry’s Crazy Bitch.

Originally released in 2006, Crazy Bitch is a hard rock anthem known for its raw energy and unapologetic lyrics. But in Smith’s hands, it takes on a whole new vibe. Swapping out the gritty guitars for acoustic melodies and introspective delivery, he transforms the song into something completely unexpected, almost like it was always meant to be a folk ballad. His emotional vocals bring a fresh depth to the lyrics, giving fans a new way to experience the song.

Listeners are hooked on Smith’s reimaginings. One fan, Erika Heller, summed it up perfectly on his TikTok: “I never want to hear the original again. This is it.”

As Smith continues to experiment with genre-blending covers on TikTok, he’s proving that great music has no limits. His ability to reshape well-known songs into heartfelt folk renditions is just another reason why he’s an artist to watch.
