    No indignant anger directed at others, just a humble explanation of his personal views. Still the benchmark.

    Johnny was always for the "little man", the disadvantaged, poor, undereducated and of course those in desperate need of a second chance. Not only a great artist but one who talked the talk and walked the walk. Beautiful.

    When Johnny speaks, people listen, and you could take his word to the bank. Look at the rapt attention and expressions of hope and appreciation on the young faces in the audience. We need more of that in these cynical days.

    Cash was the first westerner to learn about Stalin's death. He was in the Air Force Security Service (early counterpart) in Germany, 1950s. Dad and he had the same job. Dad & I were Army Security Agency. They were given the message they knew the Soviets would send upon Stalin's death. Cash copied it. People say his music sounds like a train. To me, it's always been the rhythm of well sent Morse, there is a rhythm to it. Cash was against the Vietnam war, yet spent a lot of time entertaining troops. It's the way it should be. You can be against a conflict, but don't take it out on the men and women of the military.

    I'm German and a lifelong Johnny Cash fan. Even saw him in concert here in Frankfurt, Germany in the 80/90s with his wife June Carter-Cash.
    Later on, I went to a concert with The Highway Men. ❤

    The part of the lyrics where he’s speaking about the number of young men we are losing is talking about our military endeavor in Vietnam.
    One of my earliest memories as a very young boy was looking on as my parents watched Walter Cronkite of the CBS Evening News each evening. Near the close of each day’s 30 minute news broadcast Cronkite would report the number of our boys who had been killed or wounded in action since his prior evening’s news broadcast just 24 hours earlier. I hope I have the following correct because I have this very vague memory of the name of each and every fallen soldier being scrolled down the screen in silence when each evening’s CBS News broadcast would come to an end. It is weird to me that memories like this were somehow seared into the mind of a very young child.
    And then when I was older I would learn about how the “lucky” ones who made it home alive and physically (but usually not mentally) intact were treated so terribly by many people of our country. I think the worst part of that for me was realizing that nearly every member of our military at that time had no choice in the matter because they were forced to go fight in a war halfway around the world because most were drafted into a branch of our military. I have an uncle who to this day has never spoken one word about what he saw or experienced while in Vietnam.

    This was during the Vietnam war & his line about the thousands who have died, thinking we were all on their side, is a reference to the way the soldiers were treated during it. My brother did 3 tours of Vietnam & was spit on every time he came home. Many of those soldiers were drafted & had no choice about being there or doing what they were ordered to do. This performance was at a college campus Johnny had toured. Those are students.

    Johnny was definitely the man, in black and otherwise. When it came to his faith, which he had an abundance of, he was described as “devout but troubled”. But, he maintained a sense of compassion for his fellow man. Where some might cast off the inmate or the addict, Johnny felt for them. He had integrity, and he also kept his rebellious streak in there, too. No wonder he still has fans and respect from a multitude of music communities.

  • @ellenjones7819
    @ellenjones7819 24 дні тому +5

    He starts by saying that he took time to converse with those young people and that the song is a product of those conversations. Today, people don't want to listen to one another. They want to argue and force their opinions onto everyone.

    Such a great song. I believe these were university students, another great song is "What is Truth" . Apparently Johnny was invited by Nixon to perform at one of his campaign events , Johnny didn't like the song he chose , so sang "What is Truth". Nixon wasn't happy since it was basically an anti war song.

    I was 9 years old, a Corporal in The Kiss Army, knew all the words to Alice Cooper songs. But I was a closet Johnny Cash fan. My parents always caught me listening to him with the headset on. They always went to his concerts when he came to town and they took me in 1975. Row 20 on the floor. I can still see him. He taught me what live music can be. Peace

    As impressive as Johnny is on video, it is about a fifth of what he was in person. I saw him in the early seventies at Milwaukee's Summerfest, a huge and impersonal venue, but Johnny had IT, the Q factor, whatever you want to call it. He OWNED the audience, and his love for June showed up in every note. An incredible performer, and a better human being.

    In America Johnny Cash is "The Man In Black". Johnny wore black up to the day he past away. Never did he let the fame or ego of character get to him where he acted better than anybody else. Acoording to some of the Country Music Legends. The 3 Kings is Hank Waylon Johnny.

    One example of the balance in Johnny was at one point, he decided we needed to get out of Vietnam which made conservatives mad at him but he still went and did USO shows for the troops which made liberals mad at him. He properly said that not doing the shows just hurt the soldiers and doing the shows didn't mean he supported being in the war.

    Regarding pausing the music: it's a myth as stated, but it's also real. I'm not a lawyer and copyright is complicated, but the two most important rules for your purposes are that (1) You need to bring something new that viewers can't get just by watching the original and (2) Watching your video cannot be a replacement for the original. So to #2, pausing, using filters, replaying sections, etc. acts to break up the original and change the experience. Someone who wants to listen to the song will go listen to the original, not just watch your clip. How long a play and pause needs to be depends on what else a creator is doing and how they use the pauses.

    Johnny Cash was THE MAN! He was at one time a hell raiser, but he saw the light, and changed his ways. I don't wanna sound like a “holyer than thou” because I'm not. It's always struck me that his initials were the same as Jesus Christ, not that he was Jesus Christ, but he was spreading his word... maybe a modern day apostle.

    This was written at the end of the Viet. War thatsvabout loosing fine young men statement. And i believe anyways the staent about believing godbwasvon their side also refrences people dieing over thrir religion thinking they are the relugion that gods talking about and will take to heaven. Funny how even afyer all these years. . after tjis was wrotten and other great sings like Imagine was written listened to and the basic meanings loved by so so many. . that we are still at these core issues in humanoty that wars are over and seperation of people, and seems with all written and listened to and loved and talked about we are still in need of these songs to re surface over and over to try and get the true meaning of itball to the light and maybe to a few heaets for a short te at best, before we end up right back to the prejudices, greed and self serving ways. Too bad we cant pass these values on to one another friends but and especialy our families. Our kids and so on. Even if all those that have heard it would heed the meaning and. Take it to heart and practice these values in everyday life not just saying yea cool song i feel justblijevthat yea ty johnny. Ok on with real life. But just if those that felt that they too want things to be as the songs say. Inatead of jyst saying it as another great song says in a verse if you want a change in the world , start with the man in the mirror ! Live it and teach it. A persin can say anything but actions always speak louder then words.vypu gotta make a change in ypurself before changeing another view abd actions. Treat each as you want to be treated is my total sum of my inner values , put into the shortest version nit alot of words yo mis understand with thst line, keep it simple and true in your actions and it shpuld be easier for people to return the same to another or back to you, pay it forward as such. . it help me to remember forvmyself what i really think my core values are and how to keep them. By sticking woth the mist important tobme abone liner, treat everyone as you want to be treated ! Instead of going into what you think aboutvevery issue. Because that lines says it all to each his own opimion and even if not the same as ypurs still respect the person and agree to disagree not fight debate shake hand and still be friends or family or neighbors and celebrate what ypu have in commen . . stand up fpr one anothee not what party yhey vote for but how they treat their friends families neighbors and beighborhoods. And be good with that dance to a song ypu both like or go fishing if thats fun together, the test. Or play a games together make a game night with neighbors or sgit go shopping girls then you both can piss off your hubbies not each other about what church you go to orvwho has the most $ buy your friend a gift even a token gift with meaning between the 2 of you like both like chin. Food buy them chopsticks and take her to lunch after shopping. Guy gripe about younmisses spening $ At bingo or a trip to vegas with her buds not about BS youbdisagree about set that BS apart not let it pull you apart. And the rest will be all good
