"Hurt", as Sung by Johnny Cash

[Smaland]

Originally, I was thinking about posting this in the Favorite Country Music Songs Thread. It is sung by a country artist, but it is a cover of "Hurt", originally written by Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails.

I love this song.
I thought that Johnny Cash had great taste in the music he covered!:thumb001:

Very emotional and rather sad. Thanks a bunch for posting it.

He died not long after this, medically from diabetic complications, but I think of a broken heart- his wife June died a few months before he did. :(

What a musical legacy, his own songs and those of others he chose to perform.

I read that Reznor was hesitant about thinking Cash could do his song justice, and his jaw "figuratively" dropped when he saw the video.

Cash is one of the true cross-genre legends in the music world.

These last few recordings certainly showed his depth...
