Johnny Cash's version of Hurt

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

I had never heard Trent Reznor's original or Johnny Cash's cover so thank you for mentioning it. What an incredible music video!

Trent Reznor even said it's no longer his (Trent's) song

I don't know what Reznor and Cash's relationship was, but that has to feel so surreal for Reznor. You never see older artists cover newer ones in general, let alone such a legendary country artist cover a young alternative rock artist. If I were Reznor, that would be the thing that lets me die happy.

Iโ€™ve heard both versions probably a hundred times each and only hear Johnny Cashโ€™s voice anymore.

Yeah he really brings feeling to this song
