Would be interesting to get the estate of Johnny Cash to weigh in on this. Someone wanna get them on the line?

"You have a quotidian, pseudo-edgy opinion regarding a pseudo-edgy song that represents well less than 1/1500th of Mr. Cash's oeuvre, and not even one of his own songs? Perhaps your ego would be better served posting this on a comedy website somewhere else."

Hmm well all that's all well and good except for the fact that no one asked for your honest opinion. Please lie to us instead.

Anyone who plays a song more than 3 times in a row who is not in a band practicing that song has bad opinions.

Reznor wrote Hurt with his incredibly successful band doing coke and banging hot groupies every night and Cash's cover came from looking back on a life that had been filled with genuine heartache and loss.

Thank you for your interest in Johnny Cash's illustrious legacy! As his millions of fans across the globe would tell you, Mr. Cash has no single 'best' song - each person finds their own favorite Johnny Cash song to hold near and dear to his or her heart. In a very real sense then, all of the songs Mr. Cash wrote are the best.

Would have been funnier if he covered closer but maybe he felt he was already too close to god.

I agree. It's okay. The problem is lovely source material. You can polish a turd but its still a turd.

yeah basically. the only reason it got played on the radio was because it was a novelty...sure it was maybe reverent to cash's life but nobody pays attention to lyrics

'wish' would have been a much better choice of a song to cover...probably not a good way to make ur peace with god though when you are close to death.

pretty much this, johnny cash was lookin like a sad broken down version of the cryptkeeper when he sang it so his version carried infinitely more weight
