    Johnny was very vocal about what he called "inclusive patriotism". He fought for prisoners rights, Native Americans, and he had a very public long running feud with the KKK. They threatened to kill him constantly.

    Johnny Cash is not only an American Icon but he truly was a national treasure. He believed whole heartedly in all those lyrics. He not only sang those lyrics he lived them. Whether performing in places like San Quentin Prison or visiting the soldiers in Vietnam or visiting college campuses in the turbulence of the late 60's. He believed in what he wrote and sang because he lived what he wrote and sang

He was definitely a man of compassion and also a man of sorrows. If you read about his life, he had a few addiction problems, and wasn't afraid to let people know about it. I think that is big reason why he was so compassionate, and was so much for the underdog. And through all this, he surprisingly was still able to have a sense of humor!!! Imagine that!!!!

    Cash is one of the best storyteller’s of all time. He wore black for a reason, he shot no one, the song explains why. Johnny Cash & Elvis Presley was my dads two favourite artists of all time and he saw them both live. Growing up both their records were always playing on our record player. It made me a huge fan of both of them. Watch the movie, “Walk the Line” with Joaquin Phoenix & Reese Witherspoon, they did a good job portraying Cash on screen & Cash picked Joaquin to play him. I lost my dad in June 2020 and Cash & Elvis are a link to my father, great memories.

    As far as the request for more Johnny Cash, two songs come to mind from this one. The first is another thought provoking song from the 60's that is every bit as true today... "What Is Truth". The other is an offbeat extension of this song called "Chicken in Black".

    and now you know. little story, i owe my dad a debt of gratitude for making Mr. Cash a staple of the music i grew up with, i learned quite late in life that his father, who drew him into the lyrics of Johnny Cash, and others shaped him. My grandfather was a Sharecropper in north Florida outside of Jacksonville, he was the single White amongst the several Black sharecroppers that worked the land on that farm. dad grew up playing with his friends yet not being allowed to go to school with them (or to be more accurate, they weren't allowed to go to school with him) as dad told us, none of them blamed him they just accepted they were different (this would be in the 50's) and none of them turned away from him for it. dad got through high school and moved us around as i was young as he learned papermaking and found that he could move up going to opening mills. we settled in Amherst County Virginia, where i found myself a friend to whomever was a friend to me, got looked down on my some, didn't care, some of them still look down, i still dont care. i have friends, none of their colors are as important to me as their friendship is, and with GOD as my witness, i know that i was GIFTED the understanding that we ARE ALL Gods Children at an early age. needless to say, this song is special to me, thanks for covering it and i hope it inspires you as much as it has made me who i am.

Now in my late 60s I rediscovered Johnny Cash. his music is not only country, but much bigger than just country, it is also blues, folk and rock. But What i like the most is the lyrics of some of his songs, such as Man in Black and Hurt. He was certainly a man of character. Plus he had that kind of voice which tells it as it is. Thank you.

    He came from a hand to mouth share cropping background. He like Elvis grew up poor but never forgot where he came from. He fought his demons, found the love of his life, and got himself right with his beliefs. “Hurt” is a cover song he did that looks back on his life and is a fitting end. If you get a chance read a little about him and consider reacting to the song I don’t think you will be disappointed. Thanks.

    I love Johnny Cash! I’ve never been a big country music person, but I think Johnny Cash was one of those artists that was more than that, he was americana. He drew his influences from country, folk..from Gospel from rock and roll. He did an amazing video, he covered Nine Inch Nails “hurt“ you have to check out that video. I love Nine Inch Nails, and I don’t think many people could get away with covering Nine Inch Nails but Johnny Cash just killed it! Also “God‘s gonna cut you down“ it was released posthumously, but the video there’s a lot of celebrity cameos they’re lip-synching to his voice, the celebrities had come together for his funeral and they made that video. He really was one of a kind.

    Thank you for reacting to a song that means a lot to me. JC is one of my favorite artists and it is wonderful seeing young people like you rediscovering him and other artists and the fact that they were much more than what they have been portrayed. I love watching you react to them. ❤

    Merry Christmas guys. Johnny was always a blend of country, folk and rockabilly. There is a stage show called the million dollar quartet. It's about how one day 4 of Sun Records biggest stars all showed up at the studio on the same day. The boss steered them to an empty studio and they started doing songs together. Those 4 guys were Jerry Lee Lewis, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins and Elvis Presley. Johnny wrote this song about the prisoners, the drug problem and the lives being lost at the time in the Viet Nam War. I am a big lover of songs and poems that tell a story. Here are 2 examples each of 2 wonderful singer/songwriters whose music can be a blend of country, blues, folk and more. The first 2 are from Steve Earle and the next 2 are from Dwight Yoakam. Hope you enjoy them. Everyone have a great New Year. The phrase out with the old and in with the new never seemed more relevant than this year. Stay safe and well!!! 1. Steve Earle - Copperhead Road ua-cam.com/video/xvaEJzoaYZk/v-deo.html 2. Steve Earle - The week of living dangerously ua-cam.com/video/2bnabqUZ2VA/v-deo.html 3. Dwight Yoakam - I sang Dixie ua-cam.com/video/UJCPnd3NDNs/v-deo.html 4.

    You can tell in this version he wasn't fully sure how he wanted to sing it, it's very cool to see how the song changed from this to the version he sang live in Denmark

    Mr. Cash still has my utmost respect, He will always be a favourite of mine as there's a tune for whatever mood.
    Try "I hung my head" guys, a song of regret and remorse after He accidentally shot a lone ranger whilst practicing his aim.

    I love some Johnny Cash...a man for every man...(and woman) I could see on your faces the honesty of how this song hit home with you, as it does with so many people who hear it...you got a new subscriber on this one...good reaction video... one of my favorite songs he ever did was one that Kris Kristofferson wrote for him called Sunday Morning Coming Down...excellent song...y'all need to check it out if you haven't heard it or reacted to it yet...

    You need to react to Johnny';s live Prison albums: "Johnny Cash at Folsom Prison" and "Johnny Cash at San Quentin". Even if you don't do reaction videos of those albums, you should listen to them, it will give you a real feel for the man and his music. Johnny was a legend, member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Country Music Hall of Fame and Gospel Music Hall of Fame.

      I stand with you on that. Playing in a prison wasn't some publicity stunt either, he had a big heart.

    I am glad you heard and saw Johnny Cash Say why HE WAS THE MAN IN BLACK .. everyone kept asking that question they also thought he shot a man just to watch him die . So he wrote '' MAN IN BLACK '' so people would know why he ALWAYS WORE BLACK ! AFTER HE SANG THIS SONG WHY HE WORE BLACK HE WAS INTRODUCED AS ' THE MAN IN BLACK - JOHNNY CASH ' Johnny Never Killed Anyone And NEVER Spent Time In PRISON . JUST ANOTHER GREAT STORY FROM THE MAN IN BLACK . Love You Guys Your Reactions Are The Best .

    He wore black to memorize his brother that died. He always thought that he was responsible for his brothers death. Watch the movie of his life! I didn't know about this song. He was a friend of Elvis.

    I love love your facial reactions during the song and what you say after. A very good reaction. Thank you.
    Cash also had a big heart for native americans...so perhaps you could react to "Custer" where he really scalds The General and what the US did to the natives?! And also "The ballad of Ira Hayes" that tells the true story of a native war hero in WW2. Very sad and a disgrace.

    I had the honor of getting to see the man in black a few times. Something newer he did which is insanely awesome, you guys please check out Hurt. It’s a Nine Inch Nails song which after Trent (his song) heard Johnny do it said it wasn’t his anymore. Johnny OWNED that song cause he too lived it going thru his addictions. Must see!

    TNT, I would love to see your reaction to "This old Flag" by Johnny. My father was in the industry and played backup guitar with Johnny many times as well as many others. But This old Flag hits my heart every time. I will never forget , I was 5 years old and dad and Johnny played it for me 🇺🇲❤🇺🇸.PLEASE REACT TO IT, you wont regret it.
