Before you say "who cares?" and start wondering what nursing home he's in, I'd like to say that he just released an album and one of the tracks, a cover of a NIN song, is Rock Solidly better than the original.
You are free to disagree with me on this by asking what proof I have of this. To that end, I provide this link. http://www.losthighwayrecords.com/jo...39_02_100k.asx

Is that a link to the Hurt video? If it's not, that particular is also online at the site of the director of that brilliant and very emotional video, see it for yourself here. One of the most impressive music videos I've seen in a very long time...
And his American Man recordings are absolutely great. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I've always like Johnny Cash, and that is a great cover.

I've watched it another three times. It's so compelling. So much comes up in me, including a fear of aging. I think I fear age more than death....
The lyric is incredible. Amazing how it brings out a whole new meaning sung by a 71 year old ex-junkie who's had enourmous success and pain in his life. So profound. I wonder what Reznor thinks? The strength that rises in him when he starts singing "and you can have it all, my empire of dirt" contains such resolve. Such... words fail me. THe song expresses what words cannot. Man. I found this review: Quote:

Couldn't get the video to play on my computer. Life-long, 3rd of 4 generations, fan of Johnny Cash. Nothing beats his album "Live at Folsom Prison" listened to on a record player.
