Pure genius.

Filmed at San Quentin prison.

Alright. Good song... but why make a thread about it? Well... why not I guess. Just answered my own question.

Well I'd've let him make his own thread, but having been dead for 5 years I doubt he's maintained the capacity to do so.

I've always loved his version of Hurt.

I've always loved his version of Hurt.

That's surprisingly good.

ive been saying johnny cash kicks ass for a long time.
johnny cash ist krieg!

but you should check out Hank III. sounds just like his granddaddy when he plays country, but can still be brutal in hellbilly mode.

It's been a while since I've heard any Hank.

Of course, it's been a while since I've been drunk too.

Which was basically Trent Reznor's reaction too. After hearing the cover version and seeing the video he said that the song was no longer his.

Just shows how cool Johnny Cash was if he could take a song from a completely different genre and cover it so well that he gets that reaction.
