It would hurt if you put your soul into a project and then somebody comes along and copies your project and they do a better job with half the effort.

Like when Manfred Mann covered Springsteen's Blinded by the Light, and gave Bruce his only No. 1 single - as the writer. (his highest charting single as a solo performer was "Dancing in the Dark" in 1984, which reached No. 2)

Singer-Songwriter Guy Clark at a concert was asked to sing “Heart-broke” a song he wrote and Ricky Skaggs turned into a hit (with slightly modified lyrics).
Clark then said: ‘ I don’t do that song any more since that other guy ruined it. But I sure did like cashing those royalty checks.
