"Into the Unknown" by Panic! At The Disco

 

I was surprised to find out that Panic! At The Disco released their version of "Into the Unknown" from the Disney film "Frozen 2" a full two weeks before Idina Menzel dropped hers.

Then, I learned about pre-release covers.

Turns out, the music industry uses this practice as a take on "Just the Tip."  A cover artist will release their version before a much hyped original song is about to be made public, as a way to keep a fanbase quivering in anticipation.
