Justin Timberlake was inspired by Cash. He came up with the idea for this video as a tribute, which features 36 stars who were inspired by the Man in Black.
Johnny passed in 2003. This video is from 2006. This song was from a Cash album that was still unreleased at the time.
If I could suggest a Cash song, it would be “Folsom Prison Blues”.
That's my favorite
That is one of his all time greatest songs. He should most definitely give that one a listen.
There are some videos where Johnny Cash actually performs in the prisons. They’re just great performances.
@@ShondaLouisianaMama BP did a reaction to a video of Johnny preforming “A Boy Named Sue” at San Quentin State Prison, and the audio of “Cocaine Blues” preformed at Folsom State Prison.
Thanks for that information I didn't know he passed before the video. Is it just me or does anyone else think God screened it for Mr. Cash and all of Heaven, it's that good.
If you want to know Johnny properly, look up the song "The Man in Black". One of his first performances was on The Johnny Cash Show when he visited a university and it lays out why he decided to adopt his all-black attire and the things that represents. It really adds context to the rest of his work and one of the many reasons why he is a legend.
This.
This.
Yes. Man in Black - the live one when he first wrote the song is a must hear.
100% THIS!!!!!!! ☝️☝️☝️☝️
Came here to say this
I believe you nailed it 100%. "What is done in the dark will be brought to the light" was the line immediately following all the symbology. That was definitely not a coincidence! Good call and great reaction.
But the line when that flashed on screen was "working in the dark against your fellow man".
Throw your rock, and hide your hand, working in the dark against your fellow man, but as sure as God made black and white, whats done in the dark will be brought to the light. As symbols flashed ...skulls and seeing eyes. Oh yes, the makers of the video knew what they were doing. This came out after he died.
Maybe not a coincidence, but was nothing to do with Justin Timberlake's video featuring a dead man's music. I could put pictures to Mary Had A Little Lamb, but it would not become a collaboration between me and the writer, anymore than this was. "What is done in the dark will be brought to the light" references Luke 12:2-3, and directed at individuals, not groups.
This video was made after Johnny died and all these great artists agreed to participate in this tribute video.
If that is the case, then I feel that this is a mockery of this songs message. Throwing up Satanic imagery in this song, seems like they are laughing at him, post mortem.
It's funny too because some of them he could have literally been talking to them
"Sunday Morning Coming Down" is FIRE BP!!!
That is a classic must listen
@@ricksurratt9034 👌😊
Written and also sung by Kris Kristofferson!!
I sang that at karaoke I was so shy faced n full of fresh pow only thing I remember is the bar cheering hahaha?! Well, I do remember messing up the start more then once lol great song though
That is a Kris Kristofferson song. Johnny did a great job with it.
Cocaine Blues, Folsom Prison, A Boy named Sue, Ring of Fire, Jackson, Always on My Mind, Peace in the Valley. He was amazingly versatlile, too. Ren level versatility. Folk, blues, country, rock, gospel... you name it.
He should seriously listen to them all.
I'm 66. I was never a big Cash fan, nor a country fan. But his American series of albums produced by Rick Rubin are iconic and spellbinding to me. It's a historical record of American music.
They were basically showing the symbols of the people working in the dark against their fellow man and the back biters. This was a great tribute to Johnny Cash after he passed away, all these stars showing love and respect to the man in Black.
sorry if this is a dumb question. What is a back biter?
@@abunchahoopla4392 its basically just people that talk bad about other people when they are not around or tell lies about them
makes sense. Thank you@@amystreet5402
Johnny cash filmed the Hurt video in February 2002. His wife June died May 15, 2003….. Johnny Cash died September 12, 2003.
This video came out after his death.
Johnny Cash will always be considered one of the best story tellers ever. He could make you feel whatever emotion he wanted you to and then switch it on a dime. His music pulled you in and engaged you all the way thru to the last bar.
Bob Dylan once said about Johnny cash he is like the North star you can guide your ship by him.
I seen him at Glastonbury festival 94 here in the UK and it was awesome.
Dude, one of the last songs Johnny wrote is called "when the man comes around" and it's about as doomy and gloomy as any black Sabbath song. I highly recommend you checking it out! Johnnys later stuff is amazing!
"The Man Comes Around" no when in the title.
When The Men Comes Around is a must hear......
Cocaine Blues, Man in Black, Jackson. Hell you can’t go wrong with any Johnny Cash song. I believe Snoop Dogg even called him the original gangsta rapper.
Jimmie Rodgers has more in common with black culture and then Johnny cash
Check out pistol packing papa
Facts, check out Snoop Dogg w/Willie Nelson, "My Medicine" ;-) ❤️🔥 Snoop calls Johnny an OG at the beginning of that video.
A boy name Sue would be a good one
Anything by Johnny Cash would be good
I grew up listening to Johnny Cash introduced to me by my father; when I was 18 my great Uncle who I lived with during the summer on his farm 300 miles from home died the same day as Johnny Cash. He already held a special place with me and after that it was cemented in time for me. At 39 I still love J.R. Cash and still miss my Uncle Bill. He was the embodiment of a stand up guy, grew up with nothing during the depression, fought in Europe in WW2, came home and farmed and when that didn't pay the bills became a police officer and became the first non lawyer in SC to become a Judge , all with a literal 6th grade education, most of all a man of God who made sure to always tell you that everything he had done was not him, but God. Here's to two men with a profound impact on my life.
We will love cash! "Sunday morning coming down".... that was my jam ! Especially when i was drunk but 7 years sober now
Congratulations for being sober seven years! That’s AMAZING! Wish my dad had been able to accomplish that! My dad was in two wars and he had lots of problems! He passed at 53 Of a heart attack! SO sad! Peace and Blessings to you and your family!
@@wendyryder2708 peace and blessing to you and yours!
Song written by Kris Kristofferson who was person #4 in the video, I think BP thought he was Kenny Rogers.
IMO Kris Kristofferson is very slept on nowadays as a singer and songwriter.
Sunday Coming Down was written by Kris Kristofferson.recorded in 1969 by Ray Stevens.
Congratulations ❤
Johnny Cash is one of the most iconic country singers! He was certainly considered an outlaw compared to the other country stars during his time. He went against the record company desires and set up recording a live album that was performed for Inmates at Folsom Prison. This album topped charts in the US and the UK. The Live at Folsom Prison album is still considered one of the best albums of all time.
Cash is a rare legend. He wasn’t perfect, he stumbled and fell a few times but he got back up stronger than when he fell. Yes, that’s the Christian walk.
Check out his classic Boy Named Sue. It’s the lighter side of him.
Love Boy Named Sue ❤
Absolutely!
Johnny Cash is the real deal He has a large catalog to go through
When I was a kid I would listen to Johnny Cash with my dad every Sunday morning. He was my dad's favourite artist.
I’m glad you recognized the lyrics and symbolisms, gives me hope
Later in life Cash got”saved” and wrote quite a few songs that he felt led by God to write. This was one of them also another good one is “When the man comes around” it’s a song about Armageddon and the 2nd coming of Christ. Every time I hear it I get chills. You really need to react to it. Really dig your channel.
Cash didn't write this one. This is a traditional American folk song. Johnny's version of it is epic though
Yes!!! When the Man Comes Around is an excellent one!
"Saved"?
This isn't an original Cash song. The original is called "God Almighty's Gonna Cut You Down" from The Jubalaires, and was released in the 1940s.
The Jubalaires are also actually considered the first rap artists.
Elvis put out this song before Johnny did. Both amazing versions.
Ring of fire, Folsom prison blues, and highwayman would be good to react to. That last actually has Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, and Kris Kristofferson. I also recommend the movie about his life called Walk the Line with Joaquin Phoenix if you are interested in his background.
Keep listening to Johnny Cash, keep listening to his songs. Thank you for sharing this with us 😊❤🎉
Welcome to the Man in Black. I was lucky enough to see him live back in the '90s, when he was with The Highwaymen...Johnny, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, and Willie Nelson. Between the 4 of them, over 100 years of legend-making. A thrill of my lifetime....and I have my hard-Rock-loving son to thank for it.
He recorded A TON of music before passing and a bunch of it wasn't released until after he passed.
Johnny would be proud of these reactions!!!!
On audible, there’s a book of him reading the entire New Testament. I’ve listened to it a few times. I love his voice and always have new parts resonate with me when I listen to it.
I'll have to look that up. Thank you
This song resonates with us. Always feel some type of way watching this.
So many celebrities! There were only a few that I didn't recognize. Johnny Cash is so good. I really liked his voice when he was older, but they are all good. I slept on him most of my life too until I watched Ring Of Fire, that movie. And I decided to give him a listen. Wow!
I love Johnny Cash, there is so much great music to listen to. I saw him in the early 90's with the Highwaymen. Try Ira Hayes, Man in Black and for fun A Boy Named Sue
Can't really go wrong with Johnny Cash. Iconic artist, for sure. His calalogue is massive, lots of great songs!
Cash will always be a favorite of mine. He had a tough time being welcomed in the country music when he was alive. One of the original rebels in the music industry. His music goes beyond genre, too the soul. Some of my favorite songs, Folsom prison blues, A boy named Sue. I think you should also look into Hank Williams JR, A living legend in the music industry. Hank was very close to Johny has legendary song of his own. A country boy can survive, All my rowdy friends, Too many to name.
You have only scratched the surface of this amazing artist, man and icon. A true Troubadour of our times. I'm thrilled you have discovered him; I hope through channels like yours his music and messages will be passed on to new generations. When you've thoroughly checked him out I hope you check out Home Free's "Everybody Walking This Land", it's a song I think Johnny would approve of, especially at this time in our lives.
perfect perfect perfect breakdown, sir...I can't tell you how much I appreciated your take on this.
Oh this is a journey you won't forget
Johnny Cash - Hurt and Johnny Cash - God's Gonna Cut You Down are two songs that moved my Soul and you know as an artist when you connect with the Audience (Person) that is the ultimate moment in your art. Great reaction as always keep'em coming my guy.
"When the man comes around" by Johny Cash
Can't believe I don't see many putting Boy Named Sue on the list. That's one of the best, and funniest, storytelling songs in his career.
The Triangle moment you stopped on, put that in context with the lyrics. It pops up right when he says "working in the dark against your fellow man," so there's definitely intentional Illuminati-esque reference to the symbol and the lyric.
The full lyric there is "Well, you may throw your rock, and hide your hand · Workin' in the dark against your fellow man · But as sure as God made black and white · What's done in the dark will be brought to the light."
You're spot on with the imagery that's meant to be evoked alongside those lyrics.
Johnny is a legend whose biography you'd find fascinating. He was a hard party guy in his youth. Drugs, alcohol, toxic relationship with his girl/later wife. Eventually he found God and became a devoted Christian, so a lot of his songs have extra weight when you know his life. The reason there's such emotion in his version of Hurt is there's a lot of pain there at the end of his life looking back on how he treated people (including his family at times) and how despite all his success it feels like it's all garbage, his "empire of dirt."
He's always had good in his heart as you'll find in Man in Black, but he struggled that rock n' roll lifestyle in his younger days. The Man Comes Around is another of his final album songs with heavy religious tones.
If you wanna hear a short awesome banger that will hit you in your soul listen to, when the man comes around by Johnny Cash
My grandad loves Johnny Cash. He'd always sing along next to his record player. Sadly he suffers with dementia now and the last few years he's had less interest in his records, but he still likes a bit of Johnny Cash. Cash is very highly respected in the music industry. I'd recommend listening to a lot more of his stuff. There's also a film starring Joaquin Phoenix called 'Walk The Line' that is based on Johnny. Well worth a watch.
Great song for all of humanity. We all equally struggle with forgetting who we are and do things that turn us away from God . Not only Hollywood. This video was done 3 yrs after Johnnys death in 2006 as a tribute to his version of the song. It was done by Odetta in 1956. And originally released in 1946 by the Golden Gate Quartet. Im not sure who is credited with writing it. Its a traditional folk song. You should check out Odettas version too. Amazing blues. The quartet is absolutely amazing too
@technana3.141 That's an understatement that applies to each and everyone of us! We all fail, but THANK GOD he forgives us when we ask!
ELVIS has a version of this cover as well.
What did the Psalmist say? That "music can soothe the savage beast".
Im almost 64 years old. Seems like I've heard and listened to a lot of Johnny Cash. But i have never heard this song. And just like all of Johnny's songs. It's beautiful.
I am always down for more Johnny Cash. Always.
Man in Black, Folsom Prison Blues, Jackson, Sunday Morning Comin’ Down, Delia’s Gone.
You are totally right. ❤
When the Man Comes Around is my favorite. Reminds me of my grandfather.
If it's a favorit you should learn the name "The Man Comes Around."
❤ Maybe he was talking about Hollyweird 😅 but "Fulsom prisons Blues" and a "Boy Named Sue" are really good too😂
haha, boy named sue is fantastic.
I’ve always been a big fan of Johnny Cash. He passed in 2003, and he’s missed very much.. I’ve never heard this tune before.
Johnny Cash was so loved and respected by all.
Growing up in Cleveland my mom (elvis fan - some rock and roll) my sister and i just listened to rock and roll. Dad (and sometimes mom) would listen to country as dad was from west virginia and mom Kentucky. (Also just found out that grandma - full blooded Cherokee - listened to rock and roll - sweet!! But they would talk about the cash family and elvis (as Lisa Marie was in the video) she was my age - her death hit me hard.
Just loved watching mom and dad sing their songs at times. Everyone including my sister had passed and when i hear these older songs and is tv shows like Carol Burnett, hee haw and stuff i just want to share memories. I have a lot of them. This song - I've never heard before. Mom would've loved it
Johnny is a legend. One of my favourites is (Ghost) Riders in The Sky 🔥🔥🔥
You should definitely react to some of his older songs. Like Folsom Prison Blues. He has so many amazing songs to choose from! And btw, I think you are right about the messaging of this video. The various symbols show exactly what you are saying. Johnny Cash was known for being a rebel, and I think that's exactly what he's saying in this song too. God says "all things done in the dark will come to light". You are right on track.
Songs to listen to: Man in Black, What is Truth, Sunday Morning Coming Down, Ring of Fire, and so many other great songs. For fun a Man Named Sue, Oney, and One Piece at a Time.
Have to admit I slept on Cash growing up and didn't realize how much I'd missed until I was an adult. This was Cash's cover of an Odetta song.
That’s Kris Kristopherson not Kenny Rogers…love Kris too!!
Outlaw Country at it's best!!! ❣❣❣ *RIP* Man in Black, we miss you* ❣❣❣
These songs from the "American" series by Mr Cash was produced by Rick Ruben who is a hip hop/rock producer. Rick produced Jay Z before
I'll never forget where I was when I heard on the radio that Johnny Cash died. 2003, I was driving a semi on Hwy 52 just south of Winston-Salem, NC. Hard to believe it's been 20 years, I always said I'd cry the day he died. I didn't, but I sure got a lump in my throat when I heard the news. He was a legend. He'll never be replaced. Great video. I really enjoy your reactions. You're a good person. Keep up the good work, and God bless you.
As boy i was familiar with Johnny Cash cause of my uncle who was self a musican. When i got older i began to understand the lyrics. For me Cash's music was and will be always a special gift given to my from my uncle. RIP Johnny+my uncle
Love my Man in Black. Your feeling God speaking through Johnny Cash. Feels 💯
Johnny Cash is a legend. He made rock when rock was first being made, folklore story music, christian music, historical music, and country music. And he succeeded beyong every measure in every one. Go check out "The Ballad of Ira Hayes" by Johnny. Its a song about a true story that no one would talk about in America so he rubbed their nose in it with this amazing song.
You’re right… you got it right about Mr Johnny Cash and about the symbolism that some in the video chose to display. I’m a believer, too 💖
What else you should check out by Johnny Cash?.. The song he wrote and recorded called "The Man Comes Around".
And him performing "San Quentin" at the San Quentin maximum security prison in California.
Please react to a song listed as Nitty Gritty dirt band called Will the circle be unbroken. It has Johnny cash among a list of country and blue grass legends. Beautiful song.
Leonard Cohen 'You want it Darker'
Now that is a swan song.
I don't know if anyone will see this, or if they do even care, but your words about 2020 got you a subscriber. It was a tough time and your right, we needed this then.
Great episode Johnny Cash rules
God Bless You Brother!
I never thought about all the symbols, but there are a lot of things that people said were conspiracies and they've came to be true. So who knows? I just love the song.
This song is a rabbit hole in itself. It was first released in 1947 and has been covered by lots of acts from Bobbie Gentry to Marilyn Manson. It’s under some different titles such as “Run On For A Long Time” and “Sermon”. It’s interesting to hear the different interpretations and styles in which this song has been recorded. My favorite is the version by Blues Saraceno titled “Run On”.
A must reaction: When the man comes around!
Absolute perfection music wise and keeps it real ❤
I am with you brother! Hollywood is as you said. I am with you 100%! And yes Johnny was saved and a man of God!
My favorite Jonny Cash is Tennessee Flat Top Box. I love the story and how he created a song in a song. I just love it.
Any Johnny Cash is gonna be gold, just jump in the rabbit hole and hold on to your ass for the ride.
Watching this made me just realize why reactions are so fun to watch. We are watching people that had gone through life to here believing country & country artists are weak. Nobody wants that weak shit representing them. And they looked down on country. And for whatever reason they ended up here agreeing to hear some of it believing they know who the high power people are so whatever country will deliver will be no problem. And we get to see the expression on the face of the well meaning but misinformed individual as they resize in real time that they are feeling the real power that they never even understood existed before & they feeling the power come from country, what they had always thought of as weak. It is entertaining to watch someone absorb the power for the first time. U can see in their face when they start to question everything they thought they had ever known. I dont mean anybody is being disrespectful. Everybody being on the same team. But to watch someone feel the power of country for the first time is awsome!
I've never seen the video! Everyone flashing on the screen I love... What a great song and video!
Glad you've found Johnny Cash.
Folsom prison blues, cocaine blues, a boy named Sue, one piece at a time, personal Jesus, ect, ect, ect. Those are just some of his best hits. They're all bangers, just go through his discography and hit random, you'll find fantastic songs
His version of „if you could read my mind“ is so bitter sweet and so true…
This is such Important Video.
Man in Black - 70’s during the Vietnam War
Hurt - Right before his death
God’s Gonna Cut You Down - video, after his death. Hundreds had to be turned away that wanted to make appearances in the video.
Nah. Johnny Cash got the ultimate troll. Hollyweird jumped on board because he was a LEGEND. And, they played along to his song for "art" and he wrote it for them.
The ballad of Ira Hayes. He wrote that song after visiting Wounded Knee. He is also mixed with indigenous. And to honor Indigenous vets of war.
This is another song of Johnny's that came out after his death. That's why he's not in the video. Johnny was making a new record with Rick Rubin right before he died. Rubin said he hunted Johnny down and talked him into letting Rick help him make a new record in 2001-2002. After Johnny's death Rick talked a lot of artist into helping him make a video for his song and I believe they even did a celebrity memorial concert for Johnny.
Man in black needs to be your next song if you’ve never heard it!
I'd love to see you react to "One Piece at a Time" - "Oney" - ""A Boy Named Sue at San Quentin" - "Don't Take Your Guns to Town" - "Delia's Gone" Just to name a few! Great reaction!
Love your channel and your opinion is so honest and I've never met you, but man feel like we could be brothers? Keep doing what you do, you're blessed
The whole video I keep picturing Willem Dafoe saying "I'm sure the word you were looking for is symbolism, what is the sssssymbolism there?"
Johnny cash was truly a man of god after his early years of drug abuse who went on to become one of the biggest Rebels in the music industry
Jonny Cash was definitely a Icon he went to Folsom Prison and sang Folsom Prison Blues, he'd done time in Prison,I think you'll enjoy it..
Thank you Sir for your reaction hope you have a blessed day 👏 sending you love from Lafayette Georgia 🍑
One can never talk to much about GOD. Mr.Cash was a man of GOD. I subscribe right away when I heard that You are a believe. Love From Michigan and it's a cold and snowy night.
God, love, or murder are 3 common themes of Johnny's songs. And comedy. He's really his own genre.
Delia's Gone" shows some of his gangster side.
Just like Elvis, Roy Orbison, Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Howlin' Wolf, Johnny started out with Sam Phillips' Sun Records, in Memphis. He signed with Columbia Records in Nashville, in 1960.
Johnny always had a contentious relationship with Nashville bigwigs, but, he was so darned popular they had to put up with him.
Columbia Records did not renew his contract in '86 after 26 years of making millions off of him, saying at that time, he wasn't worth what he was asking. The smashed record in "Hurt" was an award from Columbia.
He died in '03, and in 2012, Columbia released a box set of songs Johnny did with them, making millions more, I'd bet.
But, if he hadn't been dropped by Columbia, he couldn't have signed with Rick Rubin, where he did some of his finest work, including this song and "Hurt".
Rick Rubin convinced Johnny that he still had a fan base and his music would resonate with new fans. The American Tales series of albums introduced Johnny to a whole new audience and proved the Nashville establishment did not know what was real.
@@tfodthogtmfof7644 I concur with that Buddy 👍. When I started hearing punk and alternative versions of his songs, and college radio stations playing Johnny's stuff, I knew that the youngsters liked him just as much as we oldsters did.
The first concert i ever went to was Johnny Cash. Love that man ❤. Def think u should check out, "Man in Black" to get to know Johnny a little better. You wanna hear him rap? Check out, "Ive Been Everywhere". Omg, fire! Love u fam ❤
Also check out "When the Man Comes Around". Probably the most powerful song Johnny Cash did.
If no one else answered-To answer your question around 10min mark, Johnny Cash passed in 2003 after Hurt (months after his wife June passed) and God's Gonna Cut Your Down came out in 2005
You know really need to get into Johnny Cash especially as an inspirational figure. His presence at a prison show of which he did many set Merel Haggard on his country music journey to be one of the greats. Johnny was what many considered the founder of outlaw country. He was also in a country super group with Willy Nelson, Kris Kristofferson, and Waylon Jennings called the Highwaymen.
Brother, I’ve seen several of your videos (so far, just recently I’m very glad I discovered you). Not just your reactions, but also learning that you’re a Christian, as am I! Also, your views on what I’ve heard, so far, it’s awesome.
This is the reaction that really sold me and not only made me subscribe to your channel; but also now say that I’m a big fan of you!
Oh, and please don’t apologize for anything that catches your attention (you mentioning the symbols in this video). This is YOUR channel and we want YOUR reaction, and that’s part of it, be YOU!
This reaction is extra great to me, because Johnny Cash is my all time favorite singer/songwriter. I’ve listened to all of his stuff countless times, still have all of his cd’s I ever bought and have a lot of his records.
He’s also a hero of mine. I’m a lot younger than him, just turned 42 years old, but I can relate to so much, because like him, I also went through addiction. Something that will always mean the world to me, one of his daughters (Kathy) helped me during my addiction. She didn’t have to do that. After learning I was a big fan of her dad, she encouraged me, used her experience being there for him to help me, as well. This was back in 2006. I’ll never forget it!
So sorry, I know this is long. This just really touched me, and I wanted to let you know, you have a new huge fan! I encourage you to keep doing what you’re doing! God bless you!
His voice is so iconic…
always stand for the truth, even when people dont like it. Cheers
It's never been said but, I see a lot of Johnny in Ren. Speaking without fear in what they believe in. Speaking for the voiceless. Not to mention using his guitar as a rifle😉😁
If you want something from this Era Cash and same message try "When the Man Comes Around"
If you want to really get to know him, "The Man in Black" live from some college campus is a must.
This man was amazing. Thank you Rick Rubin for bringing Johnny to a new generation ❤
I received my first Johnny cash album at age five, it was wrapped laying the Christmas tree in Bed Stu Brooklyn apartment.
I loved him than and I love him now at age 62.
Yes, his songs made me feel emotions at age 5.
Talent from god just can not be denied.
However, the real gift was the fact that my Italian dad and Portuguese/English mom gave their 6 children the gift of music. ALL music.
The Beatles
James Brown
Mario Lanza
Triny Lopez
Nat King Cole
Pop
Jazz
Classical
I can go on and on.
My parents struggled but made sure their children felt rich.
They gave us what no Harvard Professor ever could!
God bless.
