I know I’m not the only one, but “everyone I know goes away in the end” hits harder and harder the older I get.
Your not the only one
Well I’ll see you in the end hope somethings there ?
Yep. Especially after "what have I become, my sweetest friend". Its a gut wrenching song, with different meanings, but both versions can rip you in two. Pure brilliance.
And we'll miss them. We always will. And is not a bad thing.
They do all go away, don't they? The reality of "life" is that it always ends in "death."
I’m not afraid of dying
I’m afraid of everyone I care about dying.

During my last visit with my father , before he passed away, he made the comment that he’d not accomplished much. I was taken aback by this statement as he’d accomplished so much and was so giving of his talents and gifts to others. I later realized he was speaking as a man who could see his life coming to an end. We will always wish we could have done more. Rest in peace, my precious, beloved daddy, my hero.
So sorry for the loss of your father. I bet he was an amazing person ❤
❤❤❤love man ❤
Meu filho é apaixonado por esse cara,por sua história de vida ,seu grande amor e suas músicas. Acho que já viu o filme da vida dele uma dezena de vezes. Tenho 58 e meu garoto 20 anos,aprendi a gostar de J.Cash com meu filho. Deus abençoe você e receba J.Cash.
rest in peace GOAT 🕊🙏
We all leave behind our experiences and wisd9m. Sometimes, it is not that evident, little things are never forgotten
The way June looks at him breaks me every time. She passed three months later.
Who is June?
@@trollmagnet8265 Johnny Cash's wife. He died a few months after her
@@TheFirstWhiteRangerScary how that happens. My pappy died and, like I think not even a week after my grandma died. I didn’t know them that much, but my pappy was a cool dude from the times I do remember seeing him.
I like to think this was John's way of apologizing to June.
@@trollmagnet8265June cash his wife
“Money can’t buy back your youth when you’re old, a friend when you’re lonely, or peace to your soul.” Johnny Cash
So fucking true the truest thing I ever heard
Thats beautiful
Money can’t buy love
That’s fucking deep , but so true ... everyone I care about goes away eventually... Just how it’s always been I honestly don’t know why
True men, but its ironic. His surname is Cash
“One of the saddest and most memorable songs in all of history.”
It's not sad, it's power. The story of someone realising that they let it all go but can get it all back. But to do so they need to stand, and fight. Themselves.
th-cam.com/video/KR4DjYczINM/w-d-xo.html it was a cover.... a good one but it was in fact a cover song
@@TurtleIsSlow2469 So what. It is considered to be one of the best covers and greatest videos of all-time. When the guy who wrote and originally performed the song remarks: "that song isn't mine anymore", that says it all.
Agreed
REM all around me is sadder
My teacher gave this for homework, so here I am. Never heard of Johnny Cash or this song, but it was well worth it and I see why our teacher wanted us to watch it.
That is a good teacher.
It is truly shameful that the CMA's didn't recognize the brilliance of the American Recordings by Cash until after his passing. Cash is on the Mount Rushmore of Country music and will always be seen as a pioneer. This just shows his greatness even later in his life.
Yes...
Agreed, Merle, Conway, Waylon, George Jones, Charlie Daniels, Don Williams as well!!!
People don’t love you till you’re gone….
And I say who cares what plastic people think
They wouldn't care anyway
He's *71,* his voice is wearing out, he's 6 months away from dying, but he still picked up his guitar and did the best he could do. LEGEND!
Not just did his best but the best. This song can never been done better.
he didnt play the actual melody, did he? i've heard he wasnt able to.
Sounded like a goodbye and sorry for past hurts. Nine Inch Nails cant touch that old boy.
RIP Man In Black
@@brodie2005thegamer I've looked and there's no reports of Clint Eastwood's death, Alex Trebek is dead tho
Man, it hurts, no pun intended. I know a 76 year old and the day he dies will be the worst thing to happen to me.
Reznor's version is a young man battling self-destructive tendencies.
Cash's version is an old man near the end of his life, looking back on past regrets.
Reznor said in an interview after hearing Johnny Cash's cover it was weird. He realized the song wasn't his anymore.
@@patraic5241 i just decided to learn playing this song today like right now.and yeah I saw that interview where Trent said it's not his song anymore. Thats comming a lot from someone like him his songs are too personal.
Crazy how the exact same song can be two totally different songs at the same time!
@@patraic5241 originally he hated the cover. Saying it was like someone fucking his girlfriend. After seeing it blow up and actually listening to it he admitted it was like realizing "his girl" was better off with someone else.
@@R0FLC4T5 not exactly true. He liked it when he watched the music video before it was all released and that's when he understood it and fell in love with the cover.
Doesn't matter how old you are but when you sing this one, you'll sing as if you're 84..
If Johnny Cash covers a song you wrote, it is no longer your song. It belongs to the ages.
💯 ❤
I Think Trent Reznor said the same thing when he hears Johnny Cash’s version
@musik3030 that comment is 💯% true
It's indeed a quote from him. I modified it somewhat with some of my own thoughts.
I don’t think there has ever been a more pure look into the window of someone’s soul than this recording. It’s a masterpiece.
Masterpiece, how this man reflects on his past, it's real.
It's extremely fitting that he didn't write the song either, just like all his other shit
Seems like you don't know that it is just a cover and not his song at all.
@@wizewizard1840 Of course I know that Trent Reznor wrote the song. But it takes on a whole different perspective with Johnny Cash singing it. The song is applicable to both of them. But as Reznor said, “the Song is no longer mine anymore”. To me, it’s like Reznor Received this song From that magical place where songs come from and he was just a vessel to get the words to Johnny Cash. And the rest is history as they say. Kudos to Rick Rubin for getting this out of Johnny Cash.
@@frankinvan You should look up the rest of that quote, you're taking completely out of context. Trent still plays his superior version of his song live. The woman beater Cash received Trent's song from that magical place he received every other one of his songs from, an actually literate song writer.
An old man reflects on his life before he faces eternity. God bless Johnny Cash's soul.
Amen brother, amen....
@8-Bit Andy With everything going on in the world in these current times, I believe you're very right. Soon.
Perhaps he may become a highway man again.
@@ShainAndrews I don't doubt for you there was seemingly nothing, however I believe it differs for many people. For example some people who have died and been revived have recounted seeing their loved ones that have passed, seen Saint Peter, Jesus/heaven, seen their loved ones still alive from above, some have even seen what could resemble hell, scary things etc.
@@KickingAssDaily another awesome tune
even trent reznor said this was johnny's song now. it just goes to show how truly powerful and impactful his version is
it never will be his song
@@icehot900 either way, he made the song his own and did a damn good job, and if it wasn't that powerful, then reznor would not have made that statement
I love this song! I really don't care for Johnny Cash Or Nine inch nails.
@@icehot900 at this point, it is lol
I heard him say that when he didn't quite know what to think of it yet, implying he didn't like it but when he saw this video he got it
Every time I watch this, I just sit quietly when it's over. Art like this deserves your reverence.
Is your life boring as your pfp?
You didn’t let us down,
But you did make it hurt.
Rest in peace, Johnny
1932 - 2003
Absolutely.

What a legacy! Love this man!
I read that Cash felt that a year after his death, the world would have forgotten about his music and his life...
169 million views...
RIP, Sir...
Very well put!
ABSOLUTELY NEVER would we have forgotten this man's amazing life and story or music! I just introduced the 18yo on the line at the factory last night to this amazing artist with the song "One Piece at a Time ".
this video had something like 50M views back before they deleted the 'unofficial' channel's video and put this up. It was one of the most viewed music videos on youtube at the time.
...well after all every one of us is still searching for the comfort in The Music... Depending on our in-the-time situation we do apply for ourselves "something" that soothes our minds... The "Hurt" fills everything I need at the moment... It is just PERFECT
169 million views and counting. Nobody should forget Johnny Cash and the impact he made on this world.
This is such a good cover I watch this video every now and then
regrets? you bet. This is so haunting and a confession in itself.
Hello is full of the lovely things like the morning sun, the gleaming dew drops, the sparkling rain, the vast blue sky, the whistles of chirping birds, the beauty of the sea. Hope you're doing great and in good health?
Everyone else feels like they’ve just lived an entire lifetime of sadness in nearly 4 minutes
💯
Tell me about it
Yeah everyday
Bro wtf. We have the same pfp lol
@@lonkslonkolious4916 I thought I was the only one...
it’s beautiful that this song was originally sang by a young man who was searching for himself that was just beginning life, and was then covered by a man at the end of his life looking back at his accomplishments and wishing he could go back. truly beautiful, and truly one of the greatest covers of a song ever.
Same can be said of his cover of "In My Life"
And realized it was all "dirt."
What tops it all off is Trent gave Johnny the song. Not because it was Johnny Cash, because he put more power to the words he written. A rare instance of giving back the torch so he could burn that much brighter.
@@uncleseamus4289
"Reznor was initially unsure about Cash covering his song, fearing that it would be “gimmicky”, and he was not blown away when he first heard Cash’s version. But when he saw the video, this changed. With “tears welling, silence, goosebumps”, he recognised its significance.
Reznor’s “valentine to the sufferer” at that point became Cash’s swan song. After watching it, Reznor said: “That song isn’t mine any more.”

'nuff said you said it best
This man saved my life. His words guided me through a darkness I never imagined walking through. Addiction to heroin is horrible. its so sad how people treat you.
I remember asking myself WHAT HAVE I BECOME,
saying EVERYONE I KNOW GOES AWAY IN THE END
I DID LET THEM DOWN, I DID MAKE THEM HURT.
Until i met my wife to be ..., and then i remembered he said
If i could start again, a million miles away, i would keep myself, i would find a way.
I did keep myself, i found a way. I started again, a million miles away.
A million miles away from the hell i was in. To the love, unconditional love from my wife.
My Pap admired this man. He played that song when I confessed my addiction.
He said he understood, and that I should try and do as he said, ajd he was right,
I found out the others were someone else, i am still right here 😊
Blessings to you ❤️❤️❤️
Glad to hear this! Keep moving forward!! God bless!
Conseguiu vencer !
I didn't have the addiction but I HAD the despair. Live long and prosper.
One thing I noticed that shows how powerful and encaptivating this song is is that when you hover over the play bar, there are no spikes or sudden drop-offs; it's a solid line. Nobody is skipping to any part; they all want to hear it start to finish.
There is one spike. The beginning….
So be it
The way his voice and hands shake, and the pain in his eyes, oh boy it gets me
Sorry for intruding into your privacy, lovely song, how re you doing.
Yes
@@dividscott5377 Creepy
@@dividscott5377 bro that’s a minor
@@dividscott5377 even on TH-cam you're creepy as fuck
Seeing a young man regret his life decisions is sad, but we know they have time to make plenty of good decisions in the future. Seeing Johnny Cash here, at the end of his life, is straight up tragic. The way he sings it with so much emotion, the fantastic video showing his legacy and life. It's the most heart-breaking piece of media ever.
Why did it got deleted?
@@lukasrbic6008 Because they wanted to upload it in this channel i guess
@@uncleelement2570
To add to that, they probably didn't want the two to be confused.
@@lukasrbic6008 da postuju sa oficijalnog kanala
Fuck. TH-cam.
Years later this song slaps so hard everyone forgets it is a cover. Beyond this song Johnny Cash is a legend. We will never forget you.
This is the anthem of a man realizing what matters in life.
Exactly right. most dont get it, most think its a goodbye, when its really just sticking it to them all that let him down and i hope they do enjoy his Empire of Dirt he left for them. because thats all its really worth in the end... Dirt!
I am 55 almost 56 this year, listened to this man from birth as my parents loved him so much.. this is the saddest song ever and something i would even put in my wishes during burrial to play. My last Hoorah.
Lifes Tough, then you die.
thats when we will finally have peace.
much love from the caribbean.
my other favorite song is by James Blunt, Chase the monsters away... I actually sat with my dad in his last few minutes of life listening to this song together. I believe it helped him not be afraid...
th-cam.com/video/DTFbGcnl0po/w-d-xo.htmlsi=b-KLRfWbp8Tdpyj7
It the final roar of a great lion.. Knowing he's close to the end. It's impactful now looking at my daughter getting so big.. And her realizing I'm not immortal or the one that will be forever protecting her
Which is ironic because the NIN version is of a man who doesn't care for it
Well said. All the money I’ve made and the stuff I have bought doesn’t mean damn thing. The people that I have loved and have loved me I have found to be priceless.
even in 2020, we still miss you, Johnny.
He had a hell of a life
On god
Very true
@@eddyavitia1177 *satan
Me too
Hearing Cash refer to all of his wealth and fortune as an “empire of dirt” really hits you right in the soul
I saw this on a friend's 50-inch TV, really loud,I starting crying,went past all my defense,hit "home", being an American-born songwriter living in Sweden...
@@chadtheboris wouldn’t go that far
I know he didn't write this song but it resonated with him because of its message. What really matters at the end of our lives isn't the awards, promotions or financial success. What counts are the decisions we've made and how they affected others. I hope this was cathartic for him and that he also remembered he did a lot of good things.
@@chadtheboris means a lot when you can ensure your kids kid’s grandchildren will have good lives
It truly does
Jonny, Merle, Conway, Waylon, George Jones, Charlie Daniels and Don Williams are frickin legends 👏 and Rip 🙏 to all of them!!!!!
U have to look back to learn
To move Forward
RIP Mr. Johnny Cash
An old man facing his end, looking back at everything he’s ever done, knowing he’s gonna die soon. Such a sad song...
Sad yet beautiful.
U must find joy in the life u were giving make it a good one because it's the only lufe it going to have
The saddest part for me is :"everyone I know, goes away, in the end." My grandfather said once something similar to me, and this makes me scared of being old.
The sadness I've always thought of, is that people cannot possibly live long enough to see the true depth of their works. I don't always care for his music, but this song just gets me. And as long as the song exists, it will touch people. Maybe he DID get to start again. He died as a man, and was reborn in the spirit of his music.
His wife, June Carter, that we can see in the video, died a couple of months after the video was filmed. Johnny Cash died 4 months after her.
This video is an epitaph.
Cash's version of this song is great, but the old footage interspersed throughout the video just enhances the meaning and pushes it over the top. Like life flashing before his eyes in his final days.
Wow
So true 💔
So true
Oh damn y'all here too for the free snacks
Love your channel guys!
When this came out I was homeless, on drugs, and then jail. I now have a house, job, and husband. This song and “Clover Cage - In The Moment” are the two songs that helped get rid of my depression. I just want to send love to everyone and I want everyone to know things will get better. We are in this together..I love you 💝
We've never met. We never will. But I'm hugging you, and I'm proud, and I'm smiling. I hope you are too.
One of my father's favorite performers.
Rest in Peace Dad ( August 1st 1939 - March 9th 2022 ).
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD.....August 1st 2022.
Im sorry for your loss, I lost my dad july 18 2011.. It never goes away that hole in your heart but it gets easier. My dad was only 56..
Didn’t ask
God bless your father
@@Chadabi you need to seek help
It's tough losing a loved one my friend keep your spirits High know that there's love in this world to fill your heart By all knowing and powerful creator ELOHIM who loves you dearly kind of Savior Jesus Christ who makes it possible for you to return and see him and love him embrace it.. please know that your father is closer than you know. veil is very thin and if you take a moment to stop and pay attention you'll see that he's always nearby touching your heart from the other side. I know that to be true for my mom died 11 years ago. @ 53 years of age. Her life that was cut so short I dearly miss her and I dearly Miss her parents with whom paassed 18 months before she did. I know that they're close and their love is for you and they're helping all they can are helping me and your family's helping you my friend.
I'm 71... this song makes me cry like a baby.... the closer you get to The End. The more profound this song becomes...😢
Thank you, That means the song will get 21 years better for me before I am your age. And I already love it with all my heart. This is the soundtrack to ROCK BOTTOM. :)
It feels heavy for me and I'm just 13
I'm 45 mate and this song still makes me cry like a baby 😢and I grew up with the original nine inch nails song 😢 it doesn't belong to Trent razor anymore 😢
Just 28, but..ç
@Isaac Gould little brother... don't worry to much. Just have fun.
It's just a gamble from day 1.
This man has fame, money, everything but yet he feels pain as he grows. This is what I believe to be the human curse.
He'll definitely be remembered for a song he didn't want to make! (Like us all, for our nature, not our vanity?)
Im not too much of an emotional person but wow. This song just had me blubbering. Watching a man near the end of his life coming to truly accept the worthlessness of worldly things just hits me.
You should check out his song "The man comes around". Oof that shit is pretty powerful too and beyond biblical rapture shit.
Me too
@@Superkaioken87 I just checked it out. Thank you for introducing that to me. I love that Johnny probably has plenty of non Christian fans, but he isnt afraid to reference the Bible.
It is almost he would have been a bad man, in the way he says, wouldn't he? I don t say he was.
@@untio i think as hes reflecting he now starts to see that all the money and fame he had and all the people he knew cant save him from facing mortality.
RIP Mr. Cash
1932 - 2003
Your music and memory will live on forever and ever.😔
My Uncle Johnny Cash is alive and well.
marco garza - That’s right, brother Johnny is in the presence of the absolute Holy God and has bowed at Jesus feet. He is alive and well as is Jesus.
Better than what we have today
@Dzianis Liahkou He was great on picking out those base notes in his early songs.
Then take away the "rip" from your last comment
"I will keep myself". most important words. never sell yourself.
A dying man in an empty house, sitting at a table covered in dead things.
IMHO there's never been a more powerful video than this. How often in the realm of Hollywood or the music industry do we get a chance to look into the honest, raw, stark reality of someone's else's soul?
Your listening to a man that knows his days are numbered and it’s reflecting on what it all means
It didn't help him that June Carter went first.
A swan song for the ages. He passed very shortly after this was released.
And yet the song was written by someone fairly young
@@brian4180 Trent reznor. But does it really matter? Some times others can explain what we are trying to say better then we can
We all walk this path. A tragic mystery, we can only understand when we stand in its full embrace. My sweetest friend.
I love this version. It’s just a man at the end of his life singing about what it’s like to be human. The truth in this song speaks to my soul. Such a great version.
Agree!! And yes

2024, 35, going through a divorce, financial issues, depression... This song hits me really really hard now, Johnny.
Be strong, the pain will pass and you have a new life ahead. Focus on the future, that you will be in control of.
keep your chin up. life is beautiful, as are you.
I wish you so much luck going through it...
Keep up the faith that things will be better….I myself, married for 32 years, am going through hell with a wife that needs hormone treatments or something. We raised 3 sons and after the last one moved out, empty nest syndrome kicked in. She went from being a heart of gold to the Wicked Witch….I am being patient but it’s definitely hard to live with her being like this. Thought the Golden Years were when the kids moved out, not here!
You will find a way to
i remember my sister basically forcing me to get in her car because she wanted to show me a song. The only time in my life this happened. She was a huge NIN fan and i was kind of a fan due to my proximity to her. I wasn''t a country fan and definitely not a johnny cash fan. We threw this song on and I was struck at tis beauty. I still listen to it all these years later.
He knew that his time was limited. This was his goodbye.
And it was a perfect one
All our time is ...
he didn't want to do this song, it was Rick Rubins idea.
@@areshotrod6395 Wasn't it, though! This song is a BRILLIANT summation of Cash's career. Trent wrote a masterpiece with this song, and Cash made that masterpiece come to life with so much emotion.
and to think he didn't want to do this song originally i am so glad he managed to do it and see himself back on top one last time before he went away (not to mention the execution is brilliant)
9 Inch Nails "Hurt": A man slowly losing his mind wanting to die.
Cash's "Hurt": A tired old man who is ready to die.
mrquackadoodlemoo really shows it in his voice. Plus the fact that he died 7 months after this
@Lorem Ipsum Jonny cash was talking about heroin abuse as he was a successful rehab patient, the song is about how drugs destroy the person and their family.
Thank you. That was a nice add.
Ki Joyce No he wasn’t because he didn’t write the lyrics
Aedon L. Actually yes he was . He was quoted saying he wish he wrote this
First time hearing this. Song is absolutely devastating but at the same time a beautiful yet somber farewell.

Doesn’t matter if he’s 20 or 70, he’s got the best voice in country history
Damn right
Agreed
Honestly I'd say third best(across all genres in terms of conveying emotion) after Freddie Mercury and Paul Anka. That's my personal preference.

Johnny would be surprised and thrilled at the success of his cover of Trent Reznor’s masterpiece. He did it his way and it was marvelous. Thank you Trent and Johnny.
"That song isn't mine anymore." ~Trent. Respect 100. I am an old 90s goth kid so naturally Trent is well known to me. My grandmother also always (kindly) called me the man in black because of said gothness, and her fondness for Mr. Cash.
So when this "cover" arrived, I was moved.
What hurts the most was the fact that Cash was ready to leave, the tiredness of his voice says it all.
😢
I think he had come to peace with his past, forgiven himself, and found happiness with God and June. When she was gone, I think he was ready to join her.
I think his wife passing was the nail in his coffin. He had no reason to stay anymore. Exactly what my granpop told me when my grams passed, " Just waiting impatiently to be reunited with my best friend cause the world is cold and dark without her!" were his words. They were together since she was 14 & she passed at age 69. Anywhats, yes... u can hear the weariness in his voice.

I think the saddest part is the way he closed the piano: he knows it’s over.
he R.I.P
This song was one of the first that made me stop and think what he was thinking
Swear Jar He knew already son, he knew already.
Able to sing brilliantly to the very end. Not many can, Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison and ???
I'm 43 and there already every family member since I don't have kids and almost all my friends are dead. Family from age and illness friends from drugs accidents and gin shots I'm Italian Jamaica queens we let our guns bust, it's shame I'm still here to miss them all and be alone
Sad fact: Johnny died a few months after the death of his wife of 34 years, and his stepdaughter died one month after. They are all buried together.
Not sad beautiful really
@@TorahObservantUnitarian Death is both tragic and beautiful
I was curious and confirmed this. June Carter Cash passed in May '03, Johnny that September, and Rosie Nix Adams in October. They're buried at Hendersonville Memory Gardens along with some other Carter family musicians. And yes, the Carters are distantly related to POTUS Jimmy Carter. For anyone else curious.
Sad and beautiful indeed. Just like "Hurt."
@hello is it me youre looking for it's the best and most scary ride you will ever go on
@@wintersnoob What the heck?
Why the hell death should be beautiful?
Death is the End for everything, this is not beatiful, is just the end.
While I'm not usually a Cash fan, I love his version of this song. What I can't believe is that he's only 70 here. I just turned 70 on 3/22, and he looks so much older here than I am. Must be due to all he went through. He sure was a legend, and very talented.
Hello is full of the lovely things like the morning sun, the gleaming dew drops, the sparkling rain, the vast blue sky, the whistles of chirping birds, the beauty of the sea. Hope you're doing great and in good health?
This reminds me of my father so much, 53 years old, 11 years since my father died and still I cry when I hear this. I grew up with Johnny Cash since my father loved his music which made me love it too. Even if this is a cover, it is the impact of his voice and the feeling that he means what he sings, just not words but a truth.
This isn't a song . This is something beyond just music. This is the representation of an broken down Soul
but what happened he had committed?
It's Heart wrenching
Heartfelt comment here, I listened to this song when I was severely depressed. I'm gonna be honest there was a period of time where I didn't want to do it anymore. But looking back I think this song was somewhat soothing to me. The lyrics are so relatable bc as u said they're a representation of a broken down soul which is how I felt. I'm thankful for this song existing, it made me feel understood. FYI I'm fine now, those days are long behind me :))) but just thought I'd share anyway
@@orlandopercyromeromachuca4640 his wife had died, he died not long after this. This song isn't an original Johnny Cash song though, it's originally done by Nine Inch Nails
After so many wars I decided I will become me.
My Grandpa died a few weeks ago. Johnny was mine and his favourite to listen to together. I said my final goodbyes to him, got in my car and drove aimlessly with this song blasting. Uncontrollable tears, but a part of me knew that he had lived a good life. Much like you can tell Johnny had lived and it was his time. Johnny will always take me to a place where I'll always feel close to my Grandpa. We'll meet again Gramps.
The last song he listened to was 'Ring of Fire' and just about summoned enough energy to tap his finger to the tune, will always be good memories.
I'm sorry about that but I happy you know there never gone there always in our hearts no matter what
I’m sorry for your pain. Don’t think if it as a loss
@@midoribookstore I know we'll meet again some sunny day, keep smiling through just like you always do, till the blue skies drive the dark clouds far away!
I actually cried reading this sorry about that man
What have i become hits so deep every single time...
Trent wrote the song but Johnny made it a masterpiece - his own swan song!
Singing up until the day he died. He is incomparable.
Try 'call me kevin'
James brown did that too
@@mrhydratedhydrated2175 have you praised the dear leader today?
B.B king did that as well
mr hydrated i just saw that like an hour ago 👌
Can’t get through this song without getting choked up. Never has someone so completely owned a cover song like Johnny did here.
five finger death punch gone away !
Hendrix all along the watchtower
Storm Ghost that ones up there. Jimi certainly made that song his own. The difference for me is that the entire perspective and view point of the song changed between Cash’s and Trent’s versions. You can sense Johnny feeling his own interpretation of the lyrics.
It is amazing - as is the original from 9 inch nails what about Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah
@@Ralphanthonybianscomusic you're right, hendrix make watchtower 100x more awesome but cash took hurt, combined it with his own life and pain, and completely changed the song
Man, this is just so moving. I have watched it many times and it always reduces me to tears. R.I.P Johnny Cash.
me too
Johnny cash , you have been the greatest singer that i've ever known , and i hope that's the same to alot of people.
May you rest in peace , cash
This was quite literally Cash's final farewell song to the world. It was filmed in February 2003. His wife, June Cash (seen in the video at 2:34), died 3 months after this video was made in May 2003. Cash died just 4 months after his wife at the same hospital as his wife in September 12, 2003. At the time of this filming, Johnny Cash and his wife were both experiencing serious health problems. He surely spent a lot of time reflecting on his life and mortality during these painful times.
Santo Diego where do you see that he calls him a Hero?!
@Santo Diego let he among us without sin be the first to condemn
2:05 “I cannot repair” he turns his head to show his face that still droops from a stroke. He sits in front of a table of rotting food. He had autonomic neuropathy which means causes the stomach to severely delay emptying among other symptoms. This video is such an amazing use of visual metaphor
@Santo Diegothey didn't mention anything of him being a hero, they were just sharing a sad fact about the video
Santo Diego Yeah. When he was like 20, and than he dropped drugs and got married in. 1968 and lived married to June for like 33 years
Trent wrote this song from the perspective of a young man battling to keep control of his life over his drug addiction. Johnny sung this song from the perspective of an old man who has battled his whole life with drug addiction, and the mountain of pain/guilt/regret it's caused. I like both perspectives of the same painful struggle, but God this version makes me cry.
Both performed this song with death knocking on the door.
agreed. It gets me every time. "What have I become.....i will let you down, i will make you hurt..." 😢
@@larrylinn8589 Agreed, everytime I listen to the song, I have to hear both. And for the NIN one, the live version Hurt (live) 1995.
Never did drugs or even a little drop of alcohol. From my14 years until nowadays i kept smoking regular cigarettes. My addiction never caused no harm except to me. But this song always reminds me about things that i`ve done and i`m not proud about them . Unecessary revenges, lies , swindles in which i played a role. Most of times, it was just to survive, specially in my job, but not only in it. One way or another it was always to survive, but i wasn`t as brave AS i could be.
@Bloodyrebel I just found this song and have listened to both versions. i think I relate more to Johnny's take - because at my age I'm closer to the end than the beginning. I still struggle to deal with the "pain/guilt/regret" stuff while trying to remember the good stuff I've done in my life. But Johnny Cash's take on this song is a gut punching make me bawl like a baby masterpiece. Anyone, whether or not they have substance issues, who listens to this piece and is not moved to some self reflection is not human.
My life has been full of heartbreaks and letdowns. I used rock to this song when NIN came out with it. I somehow found myself at 50 with a fent addiction and lots of misery. I decided to go to the mountains. On the drive I was reflecting on all those I’ve lost and all of those I’ve letdown and how cruel this world can be to the good ones. I felt like I was living with ghosts who couldn’t hear me trying to say I’m sorry I wasn’t there when you needed me most. I thought I was broken but then this song came on and a flood of pain just tore through me. It was as if every lyric was written from the pages of my soul. This song hit like nothing I’ve ever known. Music is powerful stuff
Robert, thanks for your great words. At the end money and property is nothing, but love to the family will stay! Best out of Germany.
jesus
@@average_teen4226 ,yes, this song is with Jesus!
Thank you, all the Best and Greetings out of Germany!
So glad you’re still here brother. Every breath you breathe is not just for them, but for you to get where you need to be. Stay strong my friend, you are not alone.
Don't judge a man until you walk a mile in his shoes
" Everyone I know goes away in the end" This song is so brutally honest and depressing but beautiful at the same time. Love it.
ikr I'm graduating from college this semester and the amount of people I've seen come and go in the past 4 years is crazy
@@tvbnine793 haha I am graduating too!
I'm going through this.... I have hate.
@@Sanctus_Manifesto I will pray extra for your freedom from that hatred.
you could have it all. My empire of dirt
The fact an old man sitting on a chair singing about sad things in life makes me fucking cry ...
Yeah, same. The sad thing is we're all doomed to that same fate. Everyone we know goes away in the end. :(
Hes talking about being addicted to heroin,,,,in case you couldn't tell. And the way it affects your friends and family. Now go listen to the song again. And understand the real pain.
@@gildog391 By the way, I forgot to mention in my rant, pay attention to the video Mr. Righteous Brave Heart. Clearly you're capable of reading between the lines whereas the rest of us can't.
@@netkosent1620 dang brother. I apologize. Was just making an observation based on life experience. I meant no harm.sorry brother
@@gildog391 Nah, you don't need to apologize bro. I was being a dick about it and could have went about it like a normal dude. I should be the one to apologize. I'm having a extremely shit day and took it out on you man. I apologize about that. NIN's version, the original, was exactly as you said. That's how the song itself was created. Cash used it for other purpose, which also included his addiction, and even with that being the case, I was being a real dick about it. Anyways, I apologize for that and really have no ill intent toward you for what you said. Truly hope you have a good evening man and again, sorry about being a shit head.
Probably number 400 of watching and I’ve never made it through without crying. He did something next level here
Hello is full of the lovely things like the morning sun, the gleaming dew drops, the sparkling rain, the vast blue sky, the whistles of chirping birds, the beauty of the sea. Hope you're doing great and in good health?
Like Young Thug said, "You got me feeling like the realest nicca on this earth. blah blah blah because i have been doing dirt." You can have it all, my empire of dirt.
"Everyone I know goes away in the end."
That line hits the hardest.
ya
Thats because it is true
It reminds me of red dead redemption 2
The sad thing about living into advanced old age.
Yes, it does.. doesn't it?
The fact he died shortly after covering this masterpiece is a blessed ending to a blessed life. You can see in his and his wife's eyes they know. Man went out with a bang. Truly the champion. R.i.p Cash
Yeah.
yeah this song is really great but fun fact he just take it from an another band, if you are curious to see where it from it's a band called nine inch nails and the tittle is just same.
This isn't a cover, my friend. Trent Reznor covered this one
@@ChrisCuttCHMy Trent's came out 8 years before Johnny's mate. This is a cover. A magnificent one, but still a cover.
@@ChrisCuttCHMy yeah Nin did it first still a great cover though
Trent Reznor's song + Johnny Cash's performance + Mark Romanek's video = heartbreaker timeless masterpiece
And a mention for Rick Rubin who suggested "Hurt" to Mr Cash & signed Johnny Cash to his "American Recordings" label when all the Country label's in Nashville had decided that the age of Mr Cash meant he had nothing to offer anymore. The reason was because Johnny Cash no longer fit the demographics of Country music & wouldn't get any "airplay" on the Country radio stations. If you haven't seen it Google "Johnny Cash middle finger acknowledgment of Nashville music establishment" it's the best advert I've ever seen.
One of those rare occasions when the video truly enhances the song and takes it to a much higher level.
The poignancy of a legendary musician at the end of his life, perfectly conveyed.
When I hear Trent Reznor’s version, I hear pain and self-loathing. When I hear Johnny Cash’s version, I hear looking back at the end of life with regrets.
Well said Joe
Same
And that's why Johnny's version hits so much harder than Trent's
@@roninskater1385 even trent Reznor said hearing johnny and the cover were so emotional for him and I look at them as two different songs. The way each artist sang it and the meaning it had to each of them is a beauty in and of itself
The video also pushes that perspective on the listener.
Standing riddled with cancer, literally standing in his shoes, this song is such a release, a song to cry to and to see it all so clearly. Just hug the ones you love and do it today. Bless you all.
i hope you get your second chance man... i will follow your advice and keep it with me
I hope you're okay, I'm so very sorry
Just know we are fighting along side you!
I agree it’s so masterful and honest. Thank you for sharing your comment, you have taught me something today, I will remember this.
💜
He had nothing and had everything. He then achieved everything and yet had nothing in the end.
Wow 😢 i felt every word he sang. This is Deep
This song still hits hard
Not as hard as my dads belt does..
Rip to my pop pop who showed me Johnny Cash ):
do you checkmarked people just reply to random popular stuff to promote your channel?
Good old days
Facts
the fact that there are so many people(including me) who can feel this pain and grief is sad but astonishing and the older you get the more you can understand him
I know him through his way of connecting with us the music is just a vehicle
U cannot escape it unless u follow me.
😔🇧🇷😘
I think .... that his pain was/is real .... and the "way", he expresses it through this Song goes deep in people hearts, who felt or feel that pain. The Artist, is all about expression. A good Artist is able to express his subjective reality to the people, so that their reality gets shaped by the Artist. Or shorter: Johnny Cash is a Legend !
Very true, I know your pain 💜✌️
Trent said himself that Hurt is Johnny's song which proves how talented he was. R.I.P Johnny Cash, you will be missed.
How a song can have a completely different meaning depending upon who sings it.
Almost 20 years since his death folks... But his music will always be remembered.
Not his music
Best music ever
This song may not be his originally but he still did a good damn job to transform it to something personal
@@Forgiveness-AdeptTechnically it is.
Trent Reznor said"Johnny owns that song now"after seeing this video.
Yes Bro, the 12th of september. Lovely song, very Ad-hoc to Logan Movie
Cash's version touches a man to the core...
I may have only been on this earth for 15 years... it still does and forever will
@@mikehawk9773 ikr
Malik Hamidon Trent’s version is like someone who’s going insane and is about to kill himself. Cash’s is like that he’s ready to die from age.
Yes. Yes it does. In an insane way
@@mondobananas1832 I've been there in Trent's version. And Cash's version is true to what you say, he misses his buddies as apparent with a table laden out for a banquet for one
Only johnny cash can take an amazing song and bring it to the next level
😢 Mr Cash this is one of the best songs ever 😢 May God bless you in heaven 😢
When he closes the piano and caresses it at the end, it's a very special moment. Thank you Johnny for all the music.
From what I read it has never been opened again, and there is no intention to do so in the future from his family.
It's like closing the lid on his coffin
You stay the hell away from me you hear
dealing empires, ok, something in the background tells me that neither Russia, India, China r Japan ever had a QUEEEN. so forget britannia rules the world
Schindlers list, the needle tears a whoele..the other stuff Luouisianna or slavery orgingianl times?
This is the most honest and devastating song I've ever heard.
have you the original by nine inch nails? also pretty hard hitting as well
Ayla Pluhar NIN is good’ but Johnny sings it better and you can understand him more
I can't finish it without crying. It's the only song that's ever done that to me. NIN made a great song, but Cash owns it.
@@sugarpants21 NIN song slaps, but johnny cash's cover has more emotion behind it, especially if you know his past which makes the song that much more emotional
So true
“You are someone else, and i am still right here”
A true legend in music
The man in black
The saddest part about this song is that he knew he was close to his own fate.
My thoughts exactly. He is retrospective, and shutting down.
@@brodie2005thegamer absolutely irrelevant but ok....
@@brodie2005thegamer Well, that is completely irrelevant.
@@brodie2005thegamer lol wat
The interesting thing is that he unlike so many knew and accepted death. I feel like this is his message, do not fear death because we all will die some day.
One word and one word only can describe this song:
*Real*
Sad but true
Yea Trent reznor is pretty good eh
He’s hit and miss but he nailed this song
Beg to differ. PAIN is just as appropriate word.
Bruh, hurt is literally the name of the song.
