Not necessarily. I’ve lost my brother, uncle, cousin, best friend, ex bf, and countless others in just a few years to ODs. After the first few you just become…. Numb. To stay sane you need to. Especially when you are someone who has ODed multiple times among other things. Sometimes life is unfair, and a lot of times it’s a joke.
@@marquisdelafayette1929 I never meant that loss is unique to any one demographic, just that for most people there is a difference in the occasional loss experience in youth and the accelerated repeated loss one experiences later in life. And yes, it is a challenge to handle loss without hardening or losing yourself. I hope you're in good place now with regard to your life challenges.
I'm 56, I think you incredibly beautiful. I want you to react to beautiful music.richard Ashcroft is the greatest vocalist alive. Listen to check the meaning, break the night in cover, just about anything, his voice is incredible
Well, two of the three comments are some of the more ignorant, condescending things I've read in a while. Fuck them...your original point is so well taken. By the time you past fifty, you aren't making many "new" friends or family, every single loss is magnified...in addition, your mortality looms larger every day...
Thanks for reacting to his cover of this song. Johnny’s daughter had said to him when he made this video “ it sounds like your saying goodbye” and he said “ I am”. His wife past away a few months before him and then he past away. Knowing the back ground of the song, how he sung it and what took place after he did the video brings chills and tears everytime I see the video. If you had watched all the way to the end of the video you would have seen him close the piano key cover and rub it. The closing of a career and life.🥲
🌹It wasn't the end you missed him close the cover over the piano keys, kinda symbolic of the end of his life. He was also a neat actor as well, loved him in some of Columbo's TV moves. Also, it's really nice to see your smiling face,being away for a while. 🌹
trent reznor wrote this as a young person, lost in addiction and depression. cash is singing from the point of view of an older person reflecting on life. one of the most powerful cover songs ever
I think the final shot of this video is so powerful when he closes the piano for the last time. To me it’s like the end of a career and unfortunately so many reactors stop the video before they see it so to anyone who is suggest this song to reactor make sure you tell them to watch the whole video till the end
When he puts the lid of the piano down its like he was putting the lid of the coffin down on his life...he knew it was ending and this was goodbye.... watch it again but keep watching until he puts the lid down...that gets me...every..single...time....
This was among the very last thing he ever did. They tried different ways of how to record this but eventually they did it in Johnn'ys living room. Producer Rick Rubin said "what you hear is basically what happened" he did some small adjustments afterwords in the studio. During his career labels had forced him to record songs that didn't really fit him so to speak. This became a huge hit before he died and his family are forever grateful to Rick for recordig this. In their opinion it gave Johnny some rectification before he passed.
One of the most emotional music videos available to react to in my opinion. I’ve seen people need time alone after watching it, shed tears and even break down crying. It’s the combination of the somber, sorrowed tone of the song/lyrics, plus that absolute crescendo forming the conclusion of the tune. I think the videographers knew just how to pull the audience’s heartstrings so incredibly hard. Johnny was the artist who opened me up to country music. And Johnny was also an artist who spent his life demonstrating music’s power over the human heart.
Great reaction. Theres a lot of background information in the video on Johnny's life, the picture of the older woman with white hair is Johnny's mother, the little white wooden house was a childhood home of Johnny's, the flood footage represents the many times the Cash family home was flooded, the kid June holds is their son, John Carter Cash, the kid Johnny is shown walking with is his eldest daughter from his first marriage. Much of the other footage comes from movies and tv shows Johnny did. A reaction to Johnny's version of the song, Muddy Waters might be good, a song about having to flee a flood, which Johnny knew all about!
I could see this one hit deep. A lot of us can relate. It hits me deep every time. It seems you had to end it quickly, maybe to recompose? I get it. This is why so many of us loved Johnny and his music. He was raw, real, flawed and very human, and he gave it all to his fans through his music. He spoke to so many people on this deep level. Thank you for another reaction. Looking forward to the next one. 🙏
It doesn't look like anyone has mentioned this, but Johnny sang that song with a broken jaw. Due to his past drug addictions, he refused to get surgery knowing it would require pain killers after; instead, he suffered with the pain of his injury and still recorded the album that would feature this song.
You should have watched the video to the end. The moment when he closes the piano in the end is epic. It was the way of saying goodbye by a legend. This was his last ever video. You might know that the song is actually a cover, but now Cash owns it…
I can never not cry when I listen to Johnny's rendition of this Nine Inch Nails song. I heard NIN's original in the mid/late 90s, when I was a little younger than you are now, and it was more angst than sadness what I would feel (it was also a song about drugs abuse). I'm older now and now this version is my preferred version, it's so sad, sad, sad it hurts to listen and watch the video. It reminds me I'm over half my time on Earth, at least, and that hurts.
It’s hard to find someone with more soul than Cash had. I remember being a little kid and hearing him sing “Ring of Fire” on a juke box in a diner. I never forgot my father saying Cash was a man with a heart. He does a fantastic job with Reznor’s song. I like how you show such humbleness when you react to a work of this magnitude. It is humbling to listen to him sing this. I wonder if after he covers someone’s song if it even belongs to them anymore. I would suggest you listen to his cover of Depeche Mode’s “Personal Jesus”. I think you will find it just as moving. Look forward to that! Thanks for posting. Cheers!
This song was originally 9 inch Nails. It's about heroin addiction, the emotional damage that feeds it and the damage it creates, only to feed the addiction. Johnny was asked to do this cover because he had a serious problem at the height of his fame and it almost killed him.
This song makes me cry every time. As much as I love it, it's always hard to watch/listen to. So damn emotional. Just FYI, the song was originally written/performed by Trent Reznor/Nine Inch Nails, and it's great. But even Trent Raznor liked this version so much, he stated something along the line of "it's Johnny Cashs song now".
When Trent first heard Cash's version, audio only, he said something like it felt like Cash was kissing his wife. But after he saw the video he realized it was a whole different interpretation.
I like that they included the footage from the movie where he says “Stay the hell away from me. Ya hear?” In the movie it’s a warning directed at someone he doesn’t care about. I think for the video, It’s a warning for someone he does care about.
One of the rare songs when cover becomes the main version like All Along the Watchtower by Bob Dylan but known for Hendrix’s cover. RIP to the Man in Black. So real he was accepted into metal community. Check out Boy Named Sue & Folsom Prison Blues played live in a prison
Despite not knowing hos story, you're nailing the emotions. He took a Nine Inch Nails song and owned it. He and Rick Ruben created an absolute MASTERPIECE
At that age he couldn't sing like when he was younger, but, with the decades of experience he had he could effortlessly convey the emotions of this song.
Great song. Back in high school in the 1980's, we had friends that liked country music, hard rock, or heavy metal, but all of us liked listening to Johnny Cash, his authenticity transcends musical genres.
Johnny Cash is a legend. When he first went for singing lessons his teacher refused to teach him because she realized his voice didn’t need any training. Too bad you didn’t watch the most impactful part of the video, the closing of the piano at the end. He was born with a natural singing voice.
mrtyeye6682 described it well. On a personal thing from me: when my wife got killed in that car accident, a friend sent me a note: "Don't make no fuzz!" And sent me a song from The Traveling Wilbury's: End of the line. I'm still here.
And only a few months after he had recorded this he was gone. But, he stayed long enough to finish the work he had set out to do. At the end of our days all the money in the fame and the Adoration will never mean as much as the love of the people in your life who are your family whether you are actually related to them or not . And the memory of you they have after you've set out for the next world, and the love you and for them can live on in their memories
Most of the images in the video represent parts of his life from childhood home to television shows, movies, concerts and family. He lived an amazing life.
Johnny had a fantastic career spanning several decades. He was the kind of superstar that could pack any event by a promoter simply putting his last name on a marquee; like Elvis could.. He is a household name worldwide even to those that never heard one song, or saw him on tv or in movies. His substance abuse was an ongoing battle unfortunately, though the bright light in his life was his wife June. She stuck with him through everything and was a very accomplished country's artist in her own right. As a young performer, you can always learn from such a man's enormous career and the effect that show and stage business can have, the temptations and rewards, on your own performing life to come. Google Johnny Cash; he had been there and done that, all of it, both good and bad.
This was the last music video Johnny Cash filmed before his death in 2003 (his late wife June Carter also appeared in the video)...The song itself was a cover by industrial rockers Nine Inch Nails written by their mainman Trent Reznor about addiction... Johnny Cash could relate because he struggled w/ drug and alcohol addiction for years... The movie 'Walk the line' was a Johnny Cash biopic that depicted his early career and his worst drug days. Johnny Cash gave a glimpse into his last days while revisiting his past career... People often wonder what happened to so-and-so famous celebrity when they r no longer in the public eye - a legend like Johnny Cash faced a similar 'fade away'... The House of Cash was empty and his memorabilia was sitting around forgotten. Johnny Cash was a talent who was not gifted w/ musical ability or a wide ranged voice... but he could speak the way no artist could in the 1950's... It made him a star and dubbed him 'The Man in Black' because he always performed in black clothes. Johnny Cash was desperate to get out of his life in Arkansas farmlands and he served in the US Air Force before he got married and had kids... Cash hated working day jobs to support his family and started a band to play music. He caught his break when Nashville label Sun Records (who had signed Elvis Presley) gave him a shot at recording and he scored country music hits like - 'Cry cry cry' ... 'Flosom Prison blues'... Johnny Cash was touring when he met June Carter, who was a singer in the musical Carter Family band... she became a musical collaborator in his band. There was a lot of anguish between them in the 60's because they both fell in love, even though they were married to different people and had children... Cash was also struggling w/ addictions that made him unpredictable on the road. He and his first wife separated and eventually divorced, but June was conflicted about being w/ him... But Johnny Cash persisted until she finally said 'yes' to his marriage proposal in 1968 at a concert they were both performing in.... Johnny Cash and June Carter married and welcomed a son together. They were together for over 30 years. Johnny Cash and June Carter spent the 70's and 80's recording and touring together... He appeared in TV and movies and enjoyed a rewarding career as he fought to stay clean... Unfortunately, Cash developed health problems by 1989 and was unable to tour again. In the 90's, Johnny Cash was out of public view when producer Rick Rubin approached him about recording new music - Johnny Cash began recording for Rubin's Def American label and saw his records selling again on his name alone... He released 'The man comes around' in 2002 and it was the last record before his death as 'Hurt' was released as a single and became a huge hit. In 2003, June Carter passed away from her health complications... Johnny Cash passed away 3 months later... Rubin released Cash's final recordings after his death.
He was an addict another addict from a rock band (Nine Inch Nails) wrote the song, but Cash sung it with such truth and sorrow that teh writter said it's yours now not mine anymore it was cash saying good bye and after this he died. He was only human but a source of endless talent.
Johnny Cash was known as a story teller, while he was a country singer the style was called Talking Blues. Believe it or not, but he had a great sense of humor as shown by his songs One Piece at a Time and A Boy Named Sue. Check out the videos of him singing to the prisoners at San Quinton Prison. Great performances and songs. Loved your reactions.
Aaliyah great job with your reaction and thoughts on this cover of Hurt from Johnny Cash . This was was originally wrote by Trent Rezor of NIN and after he heard the cover of it from Johnny he said it's not my song it's now his . The person standing on the stairs behind Johnny Cash is his late wife June Crater.
yeah, I'm 59 and 4 of my 10 best friends have died already, mom and dad died a few years back, all my grandparents are dead and I;m down to a few aunt an Uncles all the great aunts an uncles are now gone, and I"ve lost 2 cousins already one was younger than me. So I get it, I know what Johnny is talking about, his pain is worse because he's older and been threw alot of stuff in his life, I never went to prison or drank and did heavy drugs like he did when he was younger. His wife that was standing behind him, died a few months after he made this and Johnny followed her about 9 months later. His kids, when they heard the song and saw the video said, "Dad it's like your telling everybody goodbye". Johnny said, " I was". This was the last song Johnny did before he died also.
He once survived an ostrich claw slashing his abdomen so bad the doctor said that Cash would have been disemboweled if it wasn't for large belt buckle staying intact.
There's alot of incorrect info about this song so here. Trent Reznor says about the Cash version of Hurt: "I'd been friends with Rick Rubin for several years. He called me to ask how I'd feel if Johnny Cash covered Hurt. I said I'd be very flattered but was given no indication it would actually be recorded. The idea sounded a bit gimmicky. Two weeks went by. Then I got a CD in the post. I listened to it and it was very strange. It was this other person inhabiting my most personal song. I'd known where I was when I wrote it. I know what I was thinking about. I know how I felt. Hearing it was like someone kissing your girlfriend. It felt invasive". Johnny played this song over 100 times before he recorded it. He called it "The best anti-drug song I ever heard." The song was released as a single in 2003. "One Hour Photo" director Mark Romanek said: “I begged Rick Rubin to let me shoot something to that track” being instantly enamored of the rendition, he offered to shoot the video for free. Universal eventually agreed to the music video, but with 71-year-old Cash’s health declining and being unwilling to stay long in the cold Tennessee weather as he was going on holiday to his ranch in Jamaica that coming Saturday, Romanek had only days to make the video and after scouting in Nashville, he decided upon Cash’s home and museum in Hendersonville, Tennessee, The House of Cash. "Arriving on Friday with no idea of what I was going to make" Romanek said. "I looked around the house and made a few suggestions of where we might film Johnny performing. I was making it up off the top of my head. Then I went to the House of Cash Museum and found it in total disrepair. There was no time to clean it up so I decided that I'd just film it, and Johnny, exactly as they were. He was no longer in his prime - he was fading and that was what I wanted to show. The place was in such a state of dereliction. That’s when I got the idea that maybe we could be extremely candid about the state of Johnny’s health - as candid as Johnny has always been in his songs. While I was filming the opening segment of Johnny playing guitar in his living room, his wife, June, came down the stairs and watched. The look on her face was so complex: full of love and pride and concern for her husband. So I asked her if I could film her too and she agreed. But the most important element was when we discovered a film archive in the museum. When we looked back at the rushes we'd filmed at the house we thought they were good but not great. But once we dropped in the archive footage of Johnny we realized that was the soul of the video. The whole thing was so spontaneous. It's made me realize that sometimes you can be too prepared and that there's some value to urgency." The music video speaks about the transience of life, the gracelessness of death, the Ozymandian crumbling of an oeuvre and the decline of a genre, an era and an attitude. The ‘closed to public’ sign on the museum. The cracked platinum records. The caviar and lobster banquet with no diners. The clips from earlier in Johnny’s career. His wife June looking on. The closed piano lid. The video was so intimate that Cash's management didn't think it should be released, and Johnny was leaning in that direction. According to Rick Rubin, it was his daughter, Rosanne Cash, who convinced Johnny to let it go. June died May 15th, 2003, three months after filming, Johnny died September 12, 2003 four months after his wife. Rick Rubin said of the video: “I cried the first time I saw it. If you were moved to that kind of emotion in the course of a two-hour movie, it would be a great accomplishment. To do it in a four-minute music video is shocking. I think the hurt video is a historical document, it's like looking back across a life." Trent Reznor was sent the video while in the studio with Rage Against the Machine’s Zach De La Rocha, and, when the pair sat down to watch it, any doubts he had about the cover were long gone. “We were in the studio, getting ready to work and I popped it in,” said Reznor. "Tears started welling up. I realized it wasn't really my song anymore. It just gave me goose bumps up and down my spine. By the end I was really on the verge of tears…there was just dead silence. There was, like, this moist clearing of our throats and then, ‘Uh, okay, let’s get some coffee.' It really, really made sense and I thought what a powerful piece of art. I never got to meet Johnny but I'm happy I contributed the way I did. It felt like a warm hug. It's an unbelievably powerful piece of work. After he passed away I remember feeling saddened, but being honored to have framed the end of his life in something that is very tasteful. For anyone who hasn't seen it, I highly recommend checking it out. I have goose bumps right now thinking about it. Having Johnny Cash, one of the greatest singer-songwriters of all time, want to cover your song, that's something that matters to me. It's not so much what other people think, but the fact that this guy felt that it was worthy of interpreting.

You should watch again, this time until the very end. You'll know what I mean when you do. It's advisable to always watch from the very beginning until the very end.
Thank you for your reaction. So, you know. Johnny Cash is a member of the Rock and Roll, Gospel, Country and Songwriters Halls of Fame. The only other person to be in all four Halls of Fame is Elvis Presley.
If You get a Chance...Checkout the NIN Music Video for this Song....Its Amazing that...An Old..Legend Like Johnny..Admired This Song from the 90s Goth Legends...NIN..(Nine in Nails)
Bajo ciertas circunstancias podria conisderarse una canción bastante devastadora. Pero creo que si se toma cierta distancia se puede distinguir que el grito de auxilio lleva consigo una señal de sabiduría sobre la vida y las tempestades por las que pasamos, todos, en algún momento.
This was literally Cash’s last hit song. His wife passed away a few months after it was released. And he passed away a few months after that. Making this an actual Swansong.
You look cool and you're cool and I love that Johnny Cash hurt I want you to if you would check out the Alan Jackson he's got song Summer to that I remember is a great song and the older I get and George strait has some great music
You may not think of it as a young person, but the line “Everyone I know goes away in the end,” hits much harder as you grow older.
Not necessarily. I’ve lost my brother, uncle, cousin, best friend, ex bf, and countless others in just a few years to ODs. After the first few you just become…. Numb. To stay sane you need to.
Especially when you are someone who has ODed multiple times among other things. Sometimes life is unfair, and a lot of times it’s a joke.

We will all experience it. The older we get, the more they 'go away.' That's called 'life.'

I believe it was symbolic of him closing his own casket. Agree, it was an unfortunate omission.
Oh so sorry about that, thanks for sharing
you always should show respect to the artist and watch till the end.
trent reznor wrote this as a young person, lost in addiction and depression. cash is singing from the point of view of an older person reflecting on life. one of the most powerful cover songs ever
🥰🥰🥰
I think the final shot of this video is so powerful when he closes the piano for the last time. To me it’s like the end of a career and unfortunately so many reactors stop the video before they see it so to anyone who is suggest this song to reactor make sure you tell them to watch the whole video till the end
The last part when he closes the piano it’s like the ending of a lifetime. Very emotional
Thanks so much for sharing and for the feedback regarding the video, so sorry about that
For me, its almost like closing the lid of a coffin.
When he puts the lid of the piano down its like he was putting the lid of the coffin down on his life...he knew it was ending and this was goodbye.... watch it again but keep watching until he puts the lid down...that gets me...every..single...time....

Thanks so much, hope you had a great holiday🌺

It’s hard to find someone with more soul than Cash had. I remember being a little kid and hearing him sing “Ring of Fire” on a juke box in a diner. I never forgot my father saying Cash was a man with a heart.
He does a fantastic job with Reznor’s song.
I like how you show such humbleness when you react to a work of this magnitude. It is humbling to listen to him sing this. I wonder if after he covers someone’s song if it even belongs to them anymore.

Such an incredible song. And such an incredible album... I mean Nine Inch Nails, Downward Spiral, but IV by Cash is also rock solid.
Great reaction!

Great reaction, Aaliyah! This is an important song in Johnny's career for so many reasons. He was a master musician and storyteller. RIP.
This was not his song though
@@onearthonelegion True. Even composer Trent Reznor said this was Johnny's song now.

mrtyeye6682 described it well. On a personal thing from me: when my wife got killed in that car accident, a friend sent me a note:
"Don't make no fuzz!" And sent me a song from The Traveling Wilbury's: End of the line.
I'm still here.
Oh, I feel so sorry for your loss.
So sorry to hear about your loss 🙏thanks for taking the time to share. Hope all is well🌺
tenkyou tu 😢😢😢😢🙏🙏🙏

And only a few months after he had recorded this he was gone. But, he stayed long enough to finish the work he had set out to do. At the end of our days all the money in the fame and the Adoration will never mean as much as the love of the people in your life who are your family whether you are actually related to them or not . And the memory of you they have after you've set out for the next world, and the love you and for them can live on in their memories
Thanks so much for sharing

Most of the images in the video represent parts of his life from childhood home to television shows, movies, concerts and family. He lived an amazing life.
Thanks for sharing
Johnny had a fantastic career spanning several decades. He was the kind of superstar that could pack any event by a promoter simply putting his last name on a marquee; like Elvis could.. He is a household name worldwide even to those that never heard one song, or saw him on tv or in movies. His substance abuse was an ongoing battle unfortunately, though the bright light in his life was his wife June. She stuck with him through everything and was a very accomplished country's artist in her own right. As a young performer, you can always learn from such a man's enormous career and the effect that show and stage business can have, the temptations and rewards, on your own performing life to come. Google Johnny Cash; he had
been there and done that, all of it, both good and bad.
Thank you very much for sharing all of these🌺
This was the last music video Johnny Cash filmed before his death in 2003 (his late wife June Carter also appeared in the video)...The song itself was a cover by industrial rockers Nine Inch Nails written by their mainman Trent Reznor about addiction... Johnny Cash could relate because he struggled w/ drug and alcohol addiction for years... The movie 'Walk the line' was a Johnny Cash biopic that depicted his early career and his worst drug days.
Johnny Cash gave a glimpse into his last days while revisiting his past career... People often wonder what happened to so-and-so famous celebrity when they r no longer in the public eye - a legend like Johnny Cash faced a similar 'fade away'... The House of Cash was empty and his memorabilia was sitting around forgotten.
Johnny Cash was a talent who was not gifted w/ musical ability or a wide ranged voice... but he could speak the way no artist could in the 1950's... It made him a star and dubbed him 'The Man in Black' because he always performed in black clothes. Johnny Cash was desperate to get out of his life in Arkansas farmlands and he served in the US Air Force before he got married and had kids... Cash hated working day jobs to support his family and started a band to play music. He caught his break when Nashville label Sun Records (who had signed Elvis Presley) gave him a shot at recording and he scored country music hits like - 'Cry cry cry' ... 'Flosom Prison blues'...
Johnny Cash was touring when he met June Carter, who was a singer in the musical Carter Family band... she became a musical collaborator in his band. There was a lot of anguish between them in the 60's because they both fell in love, even though they were married to different people and had children... Cash was also struggling w/ addictions that made him unpredictable on the road. He and his first wife separated and eventually divorced, but June was conflicted about being w/ him... But Johnny Cash persisted until she finally said 'yes' to his marriage proposal in 1968 at a concert they were both performing in.... Johnny Cash and June Carter married and welcomed a son together. They were together for over 30 years.
Johnny Cash and June Carter spent the 70's and 80's recording and touring together... He appeared in TV and movies and enjoyed a rewarding career as he fought to stay clean... Unfortunately, Cash developed health problems by 1989 and was unable to tour again.
In the 90's, Johnny Cash was out of public view when producer Rick Rubin approached him about recording new music - Johnny Cash began recording for Rubin's Def American label and saw his records selling again on his name alone... He released 'The man comes around' in 2002 and it was the last record before his death as 'Hurt' was released as a single and became a huge hit.
In 2003, June Carter passed away from her health complications... Johnny Cash passed away 3 months later... Rubin released Cash's final recordings after his death.
Oh thank you very much for sharing all of these♥️
He was an addict another addict from a rock band (Nine Inch Nails) wrote the song, but Cash sung it with such truth and sorrow that teh writter said it's yours now not mine anymore it was cash saying good bye and after this he died. He was only human but a source of endless talent.
Thanks for sharing
Very good reaction he has some great songs with a lot of meaning.
Thanks so much
Johnny Cash was known as a story teller, while he was a country singer the style was called Talking Blues. Believe it or not, but he had a great sense of humor as shown by his songs One Piece at a Time and A Boy Named Sue. Check out the videos of him singing to the prisoners at San Quinton Prison. Great performances and songs. Loved your reactions.
Thank you very very much for sharing🥰🥰🥰
Aaliyah great job with your reaction and thoughts on this cover of Hurt from Johnny Cash . This was was originally wrote by Trent Rezor of NIN and after he heard the cover of it from Johnny he said it's not my song it's now his . The person standing on the stairs behind Johnny Cash is his late wife June Crater.
Thanks so much for sharing
@@AaliyahCapili Your welcome and no prob.
This song was written by Trent, but meant for Cash to sing it.
Pat benetar was a trained opera voice but she went on to do rock and roll; and scored big time. Give her a listen when you get a chance🤘❤️
Thanks so much for your recommendation
Congratulations on your 20th birthday. Interesting choice of performers. Cash had a long career. He is reflecting on his life here.
Thank you very much
His singing here is deceptively simple, but actually deliberately shaped.
🥰🥰🥰
yeah, I'm 59 and 4 of my 10 best friends have died already, mom and dad died a few years back, all my grandparents are dead and I;m down to a few aunt an Uncles all the great aunts an uncles are now gone, and I"ve lost 2 cousins already one was younger than me. So I get it, I know what Johnny is talking about, his pain is worse because he's older and been threw alot of stuff in his life, I never went to prison or drank and did heavy drugs like he did when he was younger. His wife that was standing behind him, died a few months after he made this and Johnny followed her about 9 months later. His kids, when they heard the song and saw the video said, "Dad it's like your telling everybody goodbye". Johnny said, " I was". This was the last song Johnny did before he died also.
Many thanks for sharing, may you have a wonderful day💕
it's a cover of a Nine Inch Nails song, and when they heard it, they said it's Johnny's song now...
Thanks for this info
He was dying when he made this video and refused any make up . The guy was always so real .
Thanks for sharing
Don't forget to tell those you love how you feel. Tomorrow might be to late. Much Love and Happy Holidays to all❤❤❤
Happy Holidays to you too and thanks so much for sharing this♥️
He once survived an ostrich claw slashing his abdomen so bad the doctor said that Cash would have been disemboweled if it wasn't for large belt buckle staying intact.
Thanks for sharing🌺
Johnny did a great cover of a song that he appreciated by "Nine Inch Nails."
Thanks for sharing
There's alot of incorrect info about this song so here.
Trent Reznor says about the Cash version of Hurt: "I'd been friends with Rick Rubin for several years. He called me to ask how I'd feel if Johnny Cash covered Hurt. I said I'd be very flattered but was given no indication it would actually be recorded. The idea sounded a bit gimmicky. Two weeks went by. Then I got a CD in the post. I listened to it and it was very strange. It was this other person inhabiting my most personal song. I'd known where I was when I wrote it. I know what I was thinking about. I know how I felt. Hearing it was like someone kissing your girlfriend. It felt invasive".
Johnny played this song over 100 times before he recorded it. He called it "The best anti-drug song I ever heard."
The song was released as a single in 2003.
"One Hour Photo" director Mark Romanek said: “I begged Rick Rubin to let me shoot something to that track” being instantly enamored of the rendition, he offered to shoot the video for free.
Universal eventually agreed to the music video, but with 71-year-old Cash’s health declining and being unwilling to stay long in the cold Tennessee weather as he was going on holiday to his ranch in Jamaica that coming Saturday, Romanek had only days to make the video and after scouting in Nashville, he decided upon Cash’s home and museum in Hendersonville, Tennessee, The House of Cash.
"Arriving on Friday with no idea of what I was going to make" Romanek said. "I looked around the house and made a few suggestions of where we might film Johnny performing. I was making it up off the top of my head. Then I went to the House of Cash Museum and found it in total disrepair. There was no time to clean it up so I decided that I'd just film it, and Johnny, exactly as they were. He was no longer in his prime - he was fading and that was what I wanted to show. The place was in such a state of dereliction. That’s when I got the idea that maybe we could be extremely candid about the state of Johnny’s health - as candid as Johnny has always been in his songs. While I was filming the opening segment of Johnny playing guitar in his living room, his wife, June, came down the stairs and watched. The look on her face was so complex: full of love and pride and concern for her husband. So I asked her if I could film her too and she agreed. But the most important element was when we discovered a film archive in the museum. When we looked back at the rushes we'd filmed at the house we thought they were good but not great. But once we dropped in the archive footage of Johnny we realized that was the soul of the video. The whole thing was so spontaneous. It's made me realize that sometimes you can be too prepared and that there's some value to urgency."
The music video speaks about the transience of life, the gracelessness of death, the Ozymandian crumbling of an oeuvre and the decline of a genre, an era and an attitude. The ‘closed to public’ sign on the museum. The cracked platinum records. The caviar and lobster banquet with no diners. The clips from earlier in Johnny’s career. His wife June looking on. The closed piano lid.
The video was so intimate that Cash's management didn't think it should be released, and Johnny was leaning in that direction. According to Rick Rubin, it was his daughter, Rosanne Cash, who convinced Johnny to let it go.
June died May 15th, 2003, three months after filming, Johnny died September 12, 2003 four months after his wife.
Rick Rubin said of the video: “I cried the first time I saw it. If you were moved to that kind of emotion in the course of a two-hour movie, it would be a great accomplishment. To do it in a four-minute music video is shocking. I think the hurt video is a historical document, it's like looking back across a life."
Trent Reznor was sent the video while in the studio with Rage Against the Machine’s Zach De La Rocha, and, when the pair sat down to watch it, any doubts he had about the cover were long gone.
“We were in the studio, getting ready to work and I popped it in,” said Reznor. "Tears started welling up. I realized it wasn't really my song anymore. It just gave me goose bumps up and down my spine. By the end I was really on the verge of tears…there was just dead silence. There was, like, this moist clearing of our throats and then, ‘Uh, okay, let’s get some coffee.' It really, really made sense and I thought what a powerful piece of art. I never got to meet Johnny but I'm happy I contributed the way I did. It felt like a warm hug. It's an unbelievably powerful piece of work. After he passed away I remember feeling saddened, but being honored to have framed the end of his life in something that is very tasteful. For anyone who hasn't seen it, I highly recommend checking it out. I have goose bumps right now thinking about it. Having Johnny Cash, one of the greatest singer-songwriters of all time, want to cover your song, that's something that matters to me. It's not so much what other people think, but the fact that this guy felt that it was worthy of interpreting. "
A sad footnote to a sad story, Cash’s home of nearly 30 years in which the video was shot, burned down in 2007.

His longtime drug and alcohol addiction had caused a lot of pain to family and friends which he obviously regretted in his later days.

Thank you for your reaction. So, you know. Johnny Cash is a member of the Rock and Roll, Gospel, Country and Songwriters Halls of Fame. The only other person to be in all four Halls of Fame is Elvis Presley.
Thanks for sharing🥰
You missed the end of the vid when he closed the piano as if to say, ok, that's the end of my existence here. Maybe I'll see you a million miles away.
Oh so sorry about that🙏

His empire of dirt is life. He knows he is dying when he recorded this as was his wife who passed before him.
Thanks for sharing
Bajo ciertas circunstancias podria conisderarse una canción bastante devastadora. Pero creo que si se toma cierta distancia se puede distinguir que el grito de auxilio lleva consigo una señal de sabiduría sobre la vida y las tempestades por las que pasamos, todos, en algún momento.
Thanks for sharing
This was literally Cash’s last hit song. His wife passed away a few months after it was released. And he passed away a few months after that.
Making this an actual Swansong.
Thanks for sharing🌺
