He was honest about how badly he treated his first wife. She was a good woman and he did her dirty. Adultery wasn't smiled on and laughed off like it is today and it cost both him and June.
@@lordsatanicus1622 He relapsed and cheated several times during their marriage. And she had an addiction to pain killers during the last 10 years of her life according to their son. Johnny Cash was like a black hole. He even got his daughter Cindy addicted to drugs. Various members of the Cash family made a documentary about how drug addiction messed up their lives and she was on it saying he gave her narcotics for a headache and that's what started her lifelong addiction to drugs. That karma was heavy.
This song was written by June Carter Cash and Merle Kilgore. How can you not love this song? (I was born and raised in California....definitely not a country-western fan....But this is a classic}
June Carter (member of "The First Family of Country Music") wrote this song about the extramarital affair she was having with Johnny Cash. June, Mother Maybelle, and June's sisters Anita and Helen (aka "The Carter Family") were the 4 backup singers in this video. June's sister Anita (2nd from the left) recorded the original version of "Ring of Fire" in 1962. When it failed to chart, Johnny reworked the song slightly, added the mariachi horns, and turned it into one of the biggest hits of his career. The affair continued for years until June and Johnny were married (after both of them divorced their spouses.) Walking out on his wife and 4 kids was some of that "Hurt" that Cash sang about in his final (confessional) song.
@@sinenominecc I agree, Sine! It's good finding more Johnny and June info. I once saw a clip of June saying that Johnny was "kind of scary" around the time that she wrote this song.
Thank you! This song was written because around that time he fell for June Carter and he was married at the time. Sad relationship all around. He fought temptation as long as he could. Eventually divorced and married June Carter. He also got a lot of bad press at the time because it was assumed that his first wife was black. She was Italian. Those times were something else. 😔
June Carter (his soulmate and later wife) was also a country music star in her own right. It is one of the most legendary relationships in all of pop music. They performed together for decades. She eventually got him straightened out. She was a tough woman and really funny too.
"We live and we learn...". I remember growing up, listening to his music. My uncle's and father loved his music. I, really, rediscovered, his music when I was is college. You need to listen to his gospel music. Between Johnny Cash and the Carter Family, he and June Carter Cash, left an indelible legacy in the country music world.
Hey India..... It has taken me a couple of days to get to listening to this song but when I saw it a couple of days ago, the song started playing in my head and it's been here since so I felt I had better come in and listen to your reaction. I wish I had a dime for everytime this was played at our house when I was a kid.... I'd be as rich as Johnny... well, maybe not. lol Thanks for your reaction..... Take care and be well. Peace.
India, thanks for giving Johnny Cash some love. I'd like to recommend a song by him that is about a real life person who was a hero and wasn't treated like one. Johnny did him right to do this song. Ira Hayes. You will certainly want to catch the lyrics. Thank you Ira Hayes.
June Carter wrote this song about Johnny Cash.. its about how she’s in love with him but it’s a painful love because they were both married to other people and she knew he had a LOT of problems, mostly with substance abuse.. Affairs are never ok and destroy lives, but in the end she helped him get clean and they ended up together for the rest of their lives.. they died within a couple months of each other
@@BelindaTN Go to 2:11 and count the feet! (This is not the clearest video of their performance. A re-mastered copy is here: th-cam.com/video/1Osyw6Svv8U/w-d-xo.html Once in a while, you can actually see a little bit of Helen beside Maybelle.)
Do you ever hear music from the way they sing the lyrics? I love how he sings the word fire. The truth is I hardly ever notice the lyrics of the song first. I hear the overall sound of the song and go from there.
The original name was Love's Ring of Fire and was sung by June Carter's sister Anita Carter. Johnny Cash had a dream about the song using mariachi trumpets and asked Anita if her version wasn't a hit in 6 months that he would record it. And the Carter family were the backup singers.
I agree. Nobody knows what goes on between two people.. but sometimes toxicity works to balance out the negative. He loved her and she loved him. That's all she wrote.
The Ring Of Fire is a metaphor meaning falling down down down in LOVE! Fiery love! Remember he sings " taste is sweet when hearts like ours meets" that is the process of falling deeper and deeper in love.
My nephew, who is now 26, used to sing this song at karaoke when he was 3 or 4 years old. He knew every single word of that song. He wasn’t able to read all the words on the screen, he just listened to it with his dad so much that he knew it!! Another one to check out from Johnny Cash - One Piece at a Time!
Such an Iconic singer. This song was wrote by his then girlfriend June Carter, who later became his 2nd wife. Such a really great song!! He has so many great chart topping songs. Another tidbit his wife June died first and within months Johnny Cash died. Almost like he died of a broken heart!! Yes, Walk The Line was one of his songs. 💃😍
That is Johnny's signature sound, like a train. chug chugga chug chugga chug chugga chug. Please do everything Johnny Cash. His gospel stuff is great too!!
If I remember correctly the song is about June Carter. And ,again, I believe she was married at the time of his meeting. Yes it was Joaquin Phoenix that "Wlaked the Line' together in the ephoneously named movie. I'll not go into detail except to stare he did have a very hard life even serving time in jail for barbiturates possession. His hard life is wgmhT made him so good.
Composed by his wife joan, this is about how she felt when they first met. Forbiden love with him being married to someone else. Joan is there doing backing vocals along with her sisters helen and anita. Anita released this originally. Anita had an amazing voice, you should check her out
Must watch Hurt. He was the Walk the Line guy❤️. He had a really rough life his dad was a drunk and he was with his brother when he had a accident with a saw. He always felt like he should’ve died instead of his brother because his brother was a very godly and read the Bible to them all the time. My dad a door Johnny Cash and so I kind a know a lot about him. He was kind of a tortured soul but he made peace with God and himself when he met and married June Carter Cash.
Did you miss the very first line? "Love is a burning thing, and it makes a fiery ring...." This isn't about dark days, it's about "I'm in love, and it's hot hot hot." It is about being consumed by "Burning" passion. And, as others have said, it was written by June Carter the woman he would later marry.
Johnny and June liked the metaphor of love burning. In "Jackson" they sing, "We got married in a fever hotter than a pepper sprout. We been talking 'bout Jackson ever since the fire went out."
I love your honest reactions. I love how you're open to anything and give things a chance. Walk the Line was indeed about Johnny Cash and was pretty realistic.
I was born in '64 and I first heard this song when I was little--my dad was big into country music, so I grew up with it and came to love it. At first I took the chorus literally and it scared me(lol). I figured out what he was singing about as I got older, though(lol). I can still listen to this song, and others by Johnny, all day.😊
Music executives thought it was daring to use horns on a country song and pressured Johnny to rework the song. Johnny said he had a dream one night. In the dream instead of performing the original version June wrote, he saw himself on stage with the horn section and heard the "new" version. Needless to say, Johnny kept the horns. The song became a sensation back in the day, one of his best selling. Preparation H wanted to use the song for their hemorrhoid ointment commercials. His son and daughters flat out refused. Would have been a popular commercial, though!
Around the time she was writing this very relatable song, June said that Johnny "was kind of scary". It's hard to choose a fave JC tune, but this may be it.
Grew up with this. My parents played his music all the time. This was their generation. My sister in laws family knew the Carter famiiy. I smile reading the "wikipedia" based comments. Kids these days.
Here is a love song that Johnny Cash recorded in tribute to his first wife. It was not released in the 1950s at the time, because the song was too short in time duration. It was finally released many years later as part of his Time-Life Music CD box set of Johnny Cash's Sun Records Recordings. The title of the song is "You're My Baby (Little Wooly Booger)". Some people thought that at the time that Johnny Cash's first wife was black, because of her dark skin color and "wooly" hair. But she was not black. She was Italian. An item of note about the recording; there are a few "false starts" on this recording, before Johnny Cash sings the song all the way through. Here is the link to the song: th-cam.com/video/siK8wkRSYWI/w-d-xo.html
His first wife didn't want him to be an entertainer, she wanted a "regular" marriage, family life. He tried doing numerous regular jobs to no avail, he knew his heart was in music.. when Johnny and her got divorced he married June after NUMEROUS attempts at asking her. About a month or 2 after his beloved June's death he died.. Vivian died from cancer a few years ago
Vivian didn't want him to quit the entertainment business, she just needed him home more. She had baby after baby, abandoned throughout her pregnancies, left on her own to do everything. She knew he was getting heavy into drugs, not just performing. She hoped he would choose his kids and her over the long drug binges. He didn't. Vivian divorced him when she learned of his affair with June, which she had suspected.
#IndiaReacts ... It is interesting that the Metaphors has so switched... Ring of Fire as a Meaning of Hot Desire and Love then; now it is a reference for someone that is Dirty and has disease (EG Snoop Dagg and etc)... That is the beautiful of the English language, always changing and evolving...
"Ring of Fire" has been widely covered by artist of many genres. I once made a CD that had 28 different versions, and those were just the one's I liked best. My favorites are still the first two recordings of the song, Anita Carter's original (titled "Love's Ring of Fire" and how June Carter intended it), and Johnny's iconic reworking as seen in this video.
The Anita Carter version did not really take off. Cash decided to record it and the big difference was Cash's idea to add the horns and to make it slightly more uptempo. The change worked as it became a big hit for Cash.
Classic tune! Lend your ears to "Jackson" -- the duet he sang with June Carter -- off of the Live at Folsom Prison album. And for something sad, check out "The Long Black Veil" off that same album.
Love tends to be complicated...[Like a ''Ring of Fire''] I would not ascribe that to being connected to Johnny's ''dark days'', India. It's more of a poetic metaphor.
please react to johnny cash and joni mitchell doing "Long Black Veil" and "I Still Miss Someone" they are pretty short so you could do them in one vid, love you and God bless.
Growing up in the 1960s, I used to spend 4 or 5 weeks every summer with my grandparents. I'm sure my folks were happy to ship me off every year.....LOL. But my grandparents were into this country thing....( they lived down near Fresno, CA...) & they listened to Buck Owens & his Buckeroos & Lawrence Welk & all of that stuff. Absolute TORTURE to my tender young ears. Porter Wagoner & George Jones.....Coway Twitty & all of those guys with their big giant hairdos & twangy guitars. Thank you Lord Jesus for eventually giving me some Pink Floyd.
Heh. I grew up in Fresno in the 70's but I know exactly what you mean. But now that I'm older Buck Owens sounds pretty good to my ears. Lawrence Welk, eh, er, not so much! [grin]
Yup... just subscribed.... your reactions are so real! I LOVE IT.... Oh, try given this song a reaction if you want "Nanci Griffith & John Prine - Speed Of The Sound Of Loneliness" ... It is country/folk
*Back When Country Music Was, "COUNTRY MUSIC" ... Not Like Today's Pretty Boy Garbage, Top 40, Fake Pop Crap That They Are Trying To Pass Off As Country Music!* ..... RIP - Real Country Music!
Though June Carter Cash wrote this song, the Spanish horns came to Johnny in a dream he had about the song so he added them when they recorded the song
He was talking about his love for June carter, that was his ring of fire. This song was about the complete love he had for her... may he rip. You got this one way wrong.
He was honest about how badly he treated his first wife. She was a good woman and he did her dirty. Adultery wasn't smiled on and laughed off like it is today and it cost both him and June.
which "rock star" is faithful? except dee sniper from twisted sisters that is, he is strange :P
how did it cost him June? she was with him until she died
More loyal to his prison b*tch, hence this song?

I think the fire symbolizes passion and also how love can be so intense that it feels like it's burning you alive

An iconic song with lots of history behind it. An American classic by two of the great families of American music.

I can recommend ‘A thing called love’ by Johnny Cash to give a try! 🙂
Would love to see you react to “The man in black” Another great song by Johnny
I love Cash
June Carter wrote that song.its bout their romance.
Love this
Check out "The Mercy Seat", "The man in black" and "Solitary man"
Though June Carter Cash wrote this song, the Spanish horns came to Johnny in a dream he had about the song so he added them when they recorded the song
We can be more specific, the trumpets had a Mexican vibe.
Spanish, would be having to do with Spain.
@brain-less-areus, Ok Mexican horns then, but then again all my Mexican friends speak Spanish, go figure
Great song!
Now listen to... Social Distortion - Ring of Fire ... version, its kick ass!
Moral of the song love is not mutual but you would burn to be apart of it
Great reaction India
great song
He was talking about his love for June carter, that was his ring of fire. This song was about the complete love he had for her... may he rip. You got this one way wrong.
I really wish you would react to “When the man comes around” by Cash. My favorite song of his!!
3:00 Joaquin Phoenix was the one who starred in the Johnny Cash Biopic. 😘
