    Why everyone likes Johnny Cash.......cause he kept his humble beginnings as a strength not something to be ashamed of. He kept it real.

      For years I did not like this man as I found his music a fatal bore. then 1 day I herd him singing old ruggered cross I couldn't believe what I was hearing it just turn my heart around
      today I look up to this great man even though he passed his spirit STILL LIVES IN MY HEART today.

      Did you know, that Johnny Cash was Full Blood Apache?
      Yes. He was. But the Apache were very misunderstood. Just as King David of the Bible Danced before the Lord, and Sang. So did the Apache. But because their language wasn't understood, they were scorned and killed. Did you know that Geronimo as he was finally giving in to the Soldiers, said, as they hit him to Silence him, "Don't these Soldiers Know that there is Only One God" in his own language.
      Johnny Cash was Apache, and God ran in his veins.

    I was 13 and my family was moving to Hawaii from Kansas. We made a stoop in California to spend some time with family there. I met a 16 year old John Fountain who was actually my mother's cousin. I had just discovered so-called "Black music" in "white Bread", "Hutchinson, Kansas. I had discovered "Little" Richard" on the juke box in my grandfather's bar and The Penguins. I had seen Elvis through all of his performances of 1956 I liked him because he was different. John Fountain could not believe I had never heard J.R. and he played me "I Walk The Line", "Cry, Cry, Cry" and "Get Rhythm". I have been a fan ever since. I really liked "Get Rhythm" because at 13 I could already do the deep baritone with J.R. on the line, "I said you're a mighty little boy to be "a-workin' that way." I only saw him once, in the Fall of 1967 and what a show. I have the video of "HURT" and watch it 3-4 times every year.
    R.I.P. J.R. , Your fans will always remember...........................

    I grew up in Hendersonville, Tn home of the man in black. I am just proud of my first job working at Spur gas station, when I got to pump gas, clean windows and check the oil etc. for Johnny Cash. He was always so humble. He was friendly and kind to me and never acted like a big star. He was always driving the "One Piece at a Time" car that is in the museum now. And, I ran into him a few times at the movie theatre. I only saw him perform live once at the fairgrounds. But, I can tell you for sure he was much more charismatic in person. He almost always wore a black shirt or jacket. But, might have jeans on. I did see him with a light blue shirt and jacket a couple of times during the winter. My best friend's sister was friends with his daughter Rosy Nix and would spend the night at his house and tell me about all the trains and water allegedly flowing down a rock wall. That is all I know. I wish I had known him better.

    This man in black knew life and pain, this man in black named Johnny Cash... The pain he lived clung on to him just like a cloak, heavy with grief, just as the drugs he met down that road, thank God for June when he walked the line and ring of fire..
    His soul does tell when you look in his eyes of those lonley roads winding forever and wondering when...then he met June their eyes do tell, so in love they stayed forever joined. June went parting ways to heaven, until I see you again my Johnny, my love, my best friend, my soul... Until we meet again my heart beat, my soul. Until we meet again my forever forever forever my June

      @@larrybaker9924 Hello Larry, I didn't hear back from you why you think Johnny Cash is not in heaven. So I'll tell you why Johnny is definitely in heaven. I would guess that you think he's not there because when he was younger, he was wild and a sinner. If that's the case, no one would be in heaven because we are all sinners. That's why the Father sent His Son, Jesus Christ to die on the cross for us, to pay the price for our sins. We are saved by our faith in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior and not by works. Works and being a good person will not save us. Johnny Cash truly accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior and I know for sure I will see Johnny in heaven.

    I got a Johnny Cash cassette when I was about 11 from my parents, God only knows why they thought I'd like it. (It was around 1998). But I did and listened that tape to shreds. By the time Hurt came out I was a teenager and I lost faith in all the music industry and media all-together, seeing that it's all fake. One day my brother told me that Johnny Cash died, and asked if I saw the video for Hurt. I watched it and I just sat there and cried for ten minutes. It was no coincidence that I liked that tape so much all those years ago. The reason everyone loves Johnny is because he was REAL. Something we miss desperately these days.

    I grew up with Country and Rock & Roll, Cash and Orbison were campions of music. Cash only had to walk on stage or in a room and he owned it. Orbison could write songs that were super hits but no one could sing them because they didn't have the range of Orbison, he didn't think he could sing but he was forced to start and showcase his songs.
    I met John once in the airport in Nashville BNA. I always got in early to get a good seat before they were assigned ahead. John walked in and saw this quite guy sitting by himself at the gate and he came over and said, "Hello I'm ... and I said, "Johnny Cash". He just smiled and said that's funny it's my name too. I must have turned 20 shades of RED, trying to explain he was my favorite singer. Ever! He was as humble as if he was just regular people which I guess he was.

      You're right about Roy. He took me under his wing as a performer and he ( the early 80's) was still in denial about his incredible voice. He'd shake his head and say "I know I'm no singer"- right after moving everyone in a little club in Murfreesboro Tn to tears.
      He helped the singer songwriters at MTSU, after finally giving up on Vanderbilt ever starting a music industry degree.
      He introduced me to every living songwriter and performer who I dreamt of learning from, and I performed with most of them.

    Every documentary of Johnny cash I cry at the end because he was just a troubled yet soulful, humble human and he’s my favorite and only favorite musician out of everyone. It’s just amazing and sad to hear him and just listen to what he has to say.

    A Wonderful documentary of one of the greatest in depth and soul we ever had the privledge of being fully entertained by.
    I'm not quite sure how a young kid growing up in our small beach town had a collection of 45 records of the one and only Johnny Cash I only know I listened to those records over and over again at such a young age in a New York City beach town that was the furthest road possible from this great mans roots.
    I guess it must have been the good Lord himself that saw to it those records made it to me.
    RIP♡ Mr. Cash truly you were one of the great ones!

I saw the movie about him with , well you know who I am referring to. The man was a legend in his own time, not many other people can make that claim.

    Dietrich Bonhoeffer once wrote that through suffering, one can truly come to know the love of Christ. Johnny Cash was one such man whose faith and resilience was real. And through his songs, he left some of his story for us.

    9:33 Merle Haggard got it wrong. Johnny wasn't "chewing gum". He was mocking the guard up top who was chewing gum & seemed to act like JC wasn't a big deal. The prisoners totally picked up on it & instantly fell in-love with Cash.

  • @maryannanderson2213
    @maryannanderson2213 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I firmly believe that there are only two groups of people: those who are Johnny Cash fans and those who have not yet heard one of his songs. At the risk of sounding all Annie Wilkes, I must say that I have been a fan since his very first release, Cry, Cry, Cry, which came out in 1955. While I love his songs, it is not primarily his singing that makes me such a huge fan. I am a fan because of Johnny Cash, the man. He was that rare breed known as a "good man" and that goodness came through even in his wild days when he was popping pills and getting arrested. Every time I watch "Hurt" I cry because it's like I am hearing him saying goodbye all over again. He did not write it, but it's HIS song.
