Johny Cash - Best Cover Ever. - GoFuckYourself.com

I know it's nothing new, but this always gives me goosebumps when I hear it.

And I ran across it again today.

It's gotta be one of the best covers of all time.

Hurt.

duh that doesn't even have to be pointed out. It IS the damn best cover ever made, period. Better than the original by far. I wonder how Trent feels about it.

I always thought that was a great cover for him to do, I bet that was his entire thought process after June died before him.

Reznor's reaction

In an interview with Alternative Press, Reznor admitted that when Rubin first asked if Cash could cover his song, he was "flattered" but worried that "the idea sounded a bit gimmicky." The power of Cash's cover didn't fully hit Reznor until he saw the video:

“I pop the video in, and wow… Tears welling, silence, goose-bumps… Wow. I just lost my girlfriend, because that song isn't mine anymore. … It really made me think about how powerful music is as a medium and art form. I wrote some words and music in my bedroom as a way of staying sane, about a bleak and desperate place I was in, totally isolated and alone. [Somehow] that winds up reinterpreted by a music legend from a radically different era/genre and still retains sincerity and meaning—different, but every bit as pure.[2]”

Reznor still occasionally refers to "Hurt" as "a song that isn't mine anymore."

From wiki. Damn good video, saw it before I saw the movie. All through the movie I was having flashbacks to the Hurt video..
