cash..well..cash, but the original is quite meritorious in its own right as well.

Time to break out the audiophile/NIN fan e-peen.
1) HUGE fan if NIN before halo 1, still have every recording.
2) Still have broken keyboard from concert I attended in 1991(2) thrown into crowd...pulled me out and hung with the band/trent. wacked out mofo he is. This is when they toured with Die Wartzaw (sp?), some good stuff on that night in cleveland or whatever northern ohio venue I was at. A whole lot of stories of that night but I'll keep it ATOT friendly.
3) Cash's rendition carries the song and it's writing to another level that Trent can't touch.
It's a sick, sick song that can only come from somebody who has been there.

Wow, I had never seen that before. Powerful stuff! I loved the original when it was out, but Cash did a fantastic job with it!

Thanks Yankee!
from the comments in another clip of this song
"This is wonderful and beautiful song, it bring a tear to my song everytime I hear it. I hear it on the last Northern Exposure show it was so perfect, I had to find out sung it. Iris has so much heart in everything she sings, she's too good to be popular. "
Not my favorite, but a good performance from Beck on SNL from last week.
clap hands
BTW, Trent Reznor is the man. Hurt in all its renditions is a gut wrenching song. Very powerful stuff.

IIRC, there was a special on Johnny Cash on CMT not too long ago, and they interviewed Trent about Cash's cover of Hurt - I believe Trent said that he hated the idea of it, until he actually sat down and listened to the song. I think he said he was blown away by the emotion Cash put into it, and that it surpassed the NiN version.

lol...I didnt mean for this to turn into a Hurt thread, more just show your favorite youtube videos such as http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vr6Y6kOo5rY
but I love both the NIN and Cash versions, I dont get why a lot of people only like one, they are both really good in different ways

it was an odd Concert in NY, I had General admission tickets and after NIN went off and Bowie came on all the young people stepped back and older folk came up, I like Bowie also so I stayed in front, but then he only played like 2-3 classic songs and his new album hadn't even come out yet. If he played more old songs it would have been the best concert

Agreed, Johnny Cash, did the version
that will not be beat. The video that goes with his singing is Very moving.
I have seen that video prob. 6 times, and each time,
I shed tears.
I recall seeing Jonny Cash on TV when I was little,
and hearing him on the radio all my life.
We all get old and "go away".
:brokenheart:
I'd never seen the video for Hurt. Really stirs up a lot of emotion. It's hard to watch. I'm mad/sad that I never listened to and paid more attention to Johnny Cash when he was alive. But I think it's pretty common actually, that he's more popular now, after his death and the movie, than he has been in many years. Especially with people that weren't alive/old enough during his height in the 50's and 60's, or were 'too young' to have been a fan during the 70's and 80's. It's not really something a kid wants to listen to. Now, at almost 36, I can really appreciate (and really enjoy) his music. And I'm still not a fan of any other country music (and I live in the heart of it).
The video also hits home since the Cash's house is 1.5 miles from my house. And The House of Cash museum was located down the street too (now closed) and I'm mad I never went. It's shown inside and out in the Hurt video. I've lived in Hendersonville for 30 years and it's so strange and somewhat disturbing now to think anytime we saw John or June around town, that we didn't make a bigger deal out of it than we did.
I replied to a thread with a big post about Cash when Walk the Line came out, but can't find it, even with Google. I guess it's been deleted.
It's cool that our local AAA/Progressive Adult Rock station (which has a huge 'audience', voted #1 station in Nashville in newspaper polls for the past few years) has been playing God's Gonna Cut You Down from the American V: A Hundred Highways album. Wiki says of the album:
Even in death, Johnny Cash topped The Billboard 200 with the album "American V: A Hundred Highways." It is his first No. 1 album since 1969's "Johnny Cash at San Quentin" with 88,000 copies sold in the United States, according to Nielsen Soundscan. Though the top debut is a great posthumous achievement, the Rick Rubin-produced "American V" sold the fewest copies of a No. 1 debut since Nielsen SoundScan began tracking data in 1991.
I blame itunes for everything else, so somehow I blame them for that too.

I haven't seen this since it was on TV in 1979. Giant anime transforming robots FTW!
