Johnny Cash knew he was dying as he recorded it, which makes it all the more saddening.
jordan cameron music said i will helped give him penny for your thoughts line he was east coast music awards 2012 or 11 my best buddy
When Johnny died. He wasn't just an American. He belonged to the whole world. We all felt his lost. Came together in grief. Even just for a moment. A special dude
Johnny said life is precious and it's short happiness comes in small doses you assholes need to realize hurting other people are killing other people because they don't believe in what you believe in that is wrong and we all know Islam is if you don't bow down you're an Infidel and then that gives you the right to do whatever you want to me because I did not bow down to your ruler again I'm curious why you would pick Muhammad a warlord
The old dude gets it.
He has a name, please respect elders.
@Renee2000 Respect has to be earned based on your actions not just because of age.
That said I respect both of them.
@@Renee2000dont be rude. He was being respectful. Chill out.
@@Renee2000he was being respectful
@@Renee2000you wouldn’t understand respect if your own family gave it to you 😂
The younger man looked like he listened to the message and sympathized with it. The older man empathized with this, he seems like he knows EXACTLY what Cash is talking about.
He does, song is 100% about reflecting on the regrets of your life and the things you did that you knew would end up hurting you or the people around you but you did them anyway and looking back and living in the regret of those things. This is the life of a masochist, someone that can't help but do things that hurt themselves and almost subconciously do them intentionally because all they know is living in the shit pile of regret and self hate they have. That's real shit.
He has been through some stuff, the older gentleman.. to me that is a song of a husband and father's regrets...and I believe as a husband and a father we all have those feelings to some extent! But cash made that song his own!
Nine inch nails song first no?
@@AngusBeef0 Yes. After NIN heard this song they said it's Johnny now.
@@dadbod80s You absolutely right. Trent said he no longer stakes claim. And rightfully so. This is the best remake of a song that will ever be recorded. No musician will ever do it better. I will be 50 in November. Seen NIN twice in the 90s. But damn man this will never be beat. Only one that comes close is SRV and Vodoo Child.
The elder gentleman understands the song better than most reactors. It's about the fact that the older you get the more you regret your bad decisions and actions from the past. "Prioritizing good deeds and kindness should be a lifelong endeavor." Sadly, that is not the world we live in. Thank you for this. Very touching.
it gets more and more difficult these days with doing good and being kind. No one seems to want it. So you end up giving it to animals who reflect it back, or sitting quietly watching the world destroy itself.
He also hit me with regret that everyone goes away when you're old. It made me think about my Mom now that Dad is gone and if we're not spending enough time with her. Life happens and your SO and children become your own family and own your priorities.
We can't forget our past or shut the door on it. From our mess comes our message. From hopelessness come hope. If we are armed with the facts about ourselves we can help someone else. Before that can happen, we need to be honest with ourselves. Be authentic, do the hard work and accept the results. If you can do that you will avoid all the misery that gives you these regrets. You can always start over, but you need to accept the past and present to see a better tomorrow.
the whole riff about how when you get old nobody talks to you anymore, it's true
when you're young you can make everyone talk to you, when you're old, people don't want anything to do with you
We are just human,not Jesus.
As an old man myself, I still tear up when I hear Johnny's version. Life is just a journey towards death. Spot on reaction!
Think about His life. He sang that song shortly after his wife died. He's been watching all his friends and family die, one by one, all things familiar grow strange, all his friends pass away... Johnny Cash was all alone when he sang this song. He had no one else, and this song was his last message to the next generation who is already growing old. Weight and substance means more than we know. So much more than we know, but those of us who live on will learn how much it means.
This song and the last post, both go through my shell like a scalpel.
Even as a young man I can't keep from tearing up.
We keep dying until we're worthy to be born.
Unless you discovered You Are Life Itself...which is beyond born and death. ✨️❤️✨️
The fact that the older man understood the message of the song on a single listen is astounding, it clearly resonated with him on a personal level. I love seeing these reactions across cultures.
When you are 'old' you understand! If you understand as a youth then you are wise.
Way beyond that he took it to a transcendend level
The cross-cultural element keeps me coming back, crying alongside them as the novelty resonates.
If there is one thing we have learned in a post covid world is that which unites us is infinitely greater than that which separates us.
That which separates us is the diverse space where we can learn from one another. Support one another.
We are one in humanity.
Shalom means salaam means Peace
This is real art, in my opinion. The one that transcends culture and time. As the man in the video said, this song will continue to resonate with generations to come. All truly great art possesses this trait of transcendence of earthly boundaries
This video exemplifies why such cross-cultural reaction videos are an important bridge. Here two people with different culture, language and traditions respond with complete human empathy and can identify completely with the feelings and experience that are expressed in this song. If this doesn't help all of us understand each other, that we are all the same inside, only different in a few exterior trappings, then I don't what can.
You need to travel some more and you will get wiser.
@@FSboy70 I've been clean around the world, including Europe, Mid-East, South Asia and Asia. Where else would you recommend?
How beautiful!
@@FSboy70 It's not wise to tell strangers what to do based on who you think they are.
OK Einstein, I will obey as soon as you take your foot out of your mouth. Because at leas I have the outmost respect for hypocrites.
"Education is mandatory, but experience matters the most." what a wonderful thing to say, respect.
I honestly don’t know which was more fulfilling…listening to Johnny sing this again (not the first time I’ve listened to it), or hearing the elder man understand it, completely and with no difficulty, from half a world away from Johnny’s, and from a completely different cultural perspective. The emotional impact that it had on the two of them was both boldly honest, and palpable.
I’ve watched literally dozens of reaction videos to this song. This one is easily the best I’ve seen. I can only hope that someone might express to these two men that their efforts here are both appreciated and respected.
Johnny’s wife June Carter Cash was in the video with him. She died 3 months (May 2003) after filming the video. She was the love of his life. Johnny followed her only 4 months later in September 2003. His cause of death is listed as complications from diabetes, but I truly believe he died of a broken heart.
I’d have to agree with you. My mother passed in 2021 and my grandfather passed just 3 months later, officially from complications of covid along with his numerous other health issues, but the whole family knows it was the loss of my mother that pushed him over the edge. He was devastated at losing his youngest daughter and baby and his heart just couldn’t take it.
I agree and when she passed, I knew he would follow soon after.
My grandfather passed 6 months after my grandmother he had dementia and spent alot of that time asking where she was.
He absolutely grieved himself to death. But I don't think he would have wanted it any other way ❤
The sweetness left his life.
Hurt is such an amazing song. Written by Trent Reznor in his late 20s and yet so fitting for Johnny as he faced the end of his life.
Rumor is after Trent heard this he broke down crying
allegedly after hearing Cash's version he said "this is not my song anymore"@@galaxiafletes8287
@@galaxiafletes8287 After he saw the video. He was so-so about the music, then he saw the video and was "It's not my song anymore."
I read somewhere that he was angry his song was covered without his permission. But then he listened to Cash’s version and was so moved he proclaimed the song to belong to Cash. He redid the song better than the original.
i highly doubt that, every cover has to be authorized in the music industry, and Cash would've never published the song without that. the wikipedia page for the song has a long quote from Reznor about that @@kroakie4
They both interpret the song wonderfully but the elder of the two is quite profound in his understanding & heart behind the song certainly a voice of experience .
These types of reaction videos are so underrated. It shows how much one can learn from other cultures, particularly when they are discussing culturally significant things from one's own part of the world. Westerners (like me) rarely, if ever, have the chance to be exposed to these kinds of experiences, perspectives, and wisdom. This video is a perfect example of the value of such a thing.
"Everything evokes memories in old age"
Wise words from the old man, and very true. I can only imagine how someone his age (same with Johnny while he was alive) feels.
Learning more about that with every new regret...
Johnny lived a life full of pain and blessings. He had so much love in His life but in the end it was all lost to the frailties of life. The music grabs you emotionally too!
Not as old as you think. Must be a young, arrogant observer
@@cliffordbowman6777 I'd look in the mirror before assigning arrogance too quickly. I've lost my family twice and my journeys not over. Johnny's life was filled with joy and misery, and like most of us from his own action. Knowing the richness of Johnny's life and some of the depths of his pain, I wouldn't trade my own miseries to have had his life. Upon reflection, I can admire his accomplishments, but understand his journeys pain after my own disappointments. Even the author of this song appreciated the feeling and expression Johnny put into this song. Few can truly understand the depths of pain until they've lived it. The comforts of our lives bounty is nothing without having those we loved around us to enjoy it also.
In this hardened world, people we loved walk away from our lives too easily or are taken away by their death. Our only choice is to start over.
Until Valhalla fellow Berzerker. May the Valkyries find you worthy.
What’s more interesting is that this song was written by Trent Reznor and Johnny Cash was able to identify with it and make it his own thing. Great reaction.
When he heard Johnny Cash's version he said that the song didn't belong to him anymore.
I think anyone can identify with this song.
@@My2ndnephewActually, he originally said that the master sounded corny (he was only allowing Cash to cover the song because of his manager), but everything changed when he saw the video. That's when he said the song was no longer his. He said, "It's like seeing your ex girlfriend happy with someone else "
Exactly. Cash's version encompassed his entire life experience living in the spotlight, in and out of favor with labels and the public, all the heartbreaks (both done to himself and done to others), drugs, attitudes, changing times, etc. Perfect song for Johnny (RIP).@@sharonstandridge4235
The song is about life, regret, pain, time and death. It relates to everyone, it's just Johnny Cash has taken it to a whole other level
The most impressive for me was their faces as the song went on. The pain in the young’s man face, and the sadness on the old’s one. We could turn of the volume and still describe their emotions. So intense.
*"hurt is a song that makes you reflect on your own life choices"* - there is nothing else to say this wise man hasnt covered.
I think these two gentleman have a spot on reaction to Jonny Cash"s farewell to his family, friends, and fans.
It's not Cash's song? It's a Nine Inch Nails cover.
@@thediydadreadingbut he did an amazing job singing it. And it was sort of his farewell to the world. Lots of people cover other people's songs and make it their own and that's exactly what Mr. Cash did with this ❤
@@thediydadreading
Trent Reznor is quoted saying "It isn't my song anymore."
Don't trivialize the weight and impact of this by calling it a cover. Tge importance is too big for that.
@DG-america I remember that. Cash's performance blew Reznor away. In that position, I would also be like "It's Johnny's song now" because there is no way to top that. Also, it's Johnny Freaking Cash.
@@thediydadreadingNIN having wrote the song changes nothing, it's still exactly what OP said it was.
If Trent Reznor ever doubted his ability as a songwriter, this surely erases all doubt. Yes. Johnny Cash is an American Legend, but he totally had the perfect song for his goodbye. A song that gives me goosebumps whenever I hear it, and a song that transcends the original intent to people around the world. Trent should be forever emboldened to keep writing, and just know that he has gift to connect with people as human beings.
This stopped being his song the second Johnny first sang it.
@@brandocalrissian3294 Johnny cash did a great job with it, amazing even, but you cant take away Trent's part in writing the song. without Trent there is no Hurt. Johnny Cash couldn't write Hurt he didnt have it in him. It took two people 7 years apart to make this masterpiece.
@@1104Tea I'm not a NIN fan, but I absolutely agree with what you said.
@@brandocalrissian3294 harddddd disagree. Seeing Trent sing his own words live beats this version every time.
@@1104TeaEven Trent has said "this isn't my song anymore" and has said Johnny's cover is one of the great honors of his life.
He is wise. He heard the song and knows the message. Very happy to see his tears, the song did its job. It transcended cultures and language. The message of the heart was heard, and it was known. Relief and love felt in return. Human experience shared. Mission accomplished.
“This song will continue to resonate with generations to come”. Old dude gets it. This song still makes me cry every damn time.
Love Johnny's cover of this song. It always makes me cry. Seeing Naveed and Ameer watch it together gave me the same feelings. I'm really glad you got Ameer for this one. He can truly feel what it says.
😇
I cry every time too. The song weighs heavy.
You reach a point in your life where this song resonates with your soul in a different way.
A song that can make you honestly feel different things depending on where you are in life is a very good song indeed.
And that point comes way quicker than you would think when you are young
@@JamoonXerxesSauber truly agree with you on that.
Agreed. I'm 40, just 10 years ago this song didn't resonate with me as it does now. I still loved it, but listening to it now opens a floodgate of emotions. And can see it becoming even more powerful as I keep getting older.
The older gentleman understands and is wise beyond anything ❤
This Hurt Cover is done amazingly by Johnny Cash. An icon with a voice like that, singing such a sorrowful song was memorizing. Original is done well too. But this, listening to their interpretation of this video and Johnny. That is brilliant.
I truly believe Johnny Cash would be very moved by this reaction and commentary. Uncle is a very wise man and Naveed (?) is a very thoughtful and discerning young man.
Facts
I've never heard someone describe and summarize Johnny's singing so perfectly, these guys know their stuff for never having heard him before.
He would keep himself, he would find a way. Johnny Cash won everything in life, but he lost himself. We deeply feel the agony of his regret, and it is a blessing in the lesson it teaches us. We must really think hard about what we prioritize in life’s journey. Also: I am Armenian American diaspora, the inflection and desire to be understood and heard in your voice and the similar words to Armenian that I noticed made me think of my elders discussing sacred matters of humanity. Thank you for this. Your wisdom and experience shine through in your thoughts about the song, the honesty you have to call the main topic of the song “regret” makes you much like Johnny Cash -brave. It is hard to be so honest and in touch with the truth of such a thing. I know I will take this lesson, to “keep myself” even if it means a less successful looking life, all the way to my final days. Seeing a wise elder willing to look at pain and regret with clear vision, despite how hard it is to do so, will help strengthen me in my goal to prioritize the right things and not lose myself. Thank you for letting such a difficult song into your heart in front of us.
The old man has the experience. 🙂 The young man’s thoughts are like little birds.
You guys absolutely NAILED it talking about Cash's version, his version is all about the regrets and poor decisions made throughout ones life. The Nine Inch Nails version is also amazing, but it's about completely different matters... More from a young person's point of view. But both will break your heart just the same.
lol spot on... as a recovering addict i feel that Nine Inch Nails version is within the depths of addiction and despair, (takes me back there everytime) and the Cash version is the finally sober person looking back at all of the mess and destruction with a sad shake of the head... both are very beautiful songs
Thanks for letting people know that Trent Lesnar is the original artist
@@fog4928Trent Reznor actually made the statement that he'd wrote this song, but Johnny made it his song
@@fog4928it's not a secret. Trent basically said it's Johnny's song now after he heard this version
I prefer the NIN version but that's down to personal taste. The Cash version is by no means lesser and as a country music fan I worship Johnny Cash ofc.
the elder got it on point.💯
I cried a freaking lot the first time I heard Hurt when it was released. I think I've cried even more watching it now and listening to these wise people, specially the elder man. He speaks words of wisdom, indeed 😢
When Johnny closed the cover to the piano 🎹🎶, that was his way of *saying goodbye.* I believe that this was the last video and song that he performed before he passed away. In case the guys don't know, the lady standing on the stairs watching Johnny was his wife June. Johnny passed away Sept. 12, 2003... His wife June passed away May 15, 2003. Johnny passed away 4 months after June did.😢
Actually I think that was his daughter, and his daughter said something like "It sounds like your saying goodbye." to which Johnny said "I am."
@@john_thorpe No, that was June Carter Cash. his second wife and an accomplished musician in her own right. She knew his health was failing which is why her look in the video was so solid and heart-felt. That she passed before him is arguably tragic and a relief. Watching the one you love deteriorate and die before your eyes is among the worst things someone can experience.
Another person commented, in another vid, that he was a funeral director.
Johnny closing the lid to the piano is exactly the way he closes a coffin on someone he loves.
Wasn‘t his last song the duet with his daughter „September when it comes“?
There’s a story that goes June was not meant to be in the video. She was standing on the prop staircase, off camera, observing Johnny do his thing. One of the crew noticed the emotion on her face and in her eyes while she watched her once-vital, now feeble husband do what he loves, and turned one of the cameras on her. She was unaware she was being filmed, and the expression on her face is pure and without pretense. I hope my wife looks at me like that in my eighties.
So glad you had an elder person watching with a younger person. Just elders or just younger people alone wouldn’t give so complete a commentary as having both together.
Genius
Beautiful song. Beautifully written by Trent Reznor and beautifully performed my the late/great Johnny Cash.
Wow, the song is powerful all by itself but the two men's reactions were just as powerful! The younger one sees it as a future analogy but the older one sees it and feels every word. Very moving. ❤❤❤
This is without a doubt the best reaction to Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt. It seems that these two men, and the older one in particular, have a more in-depth understanding of what Cash is portraying than any other reactor I have seen. I'm so glad I found this video. Thank you for posting this.
Trent Reznor created a great song. Johnny Cash made it resonate beyond imagination. Thank you go both of those great artists. And thank you sirs for the insight.
Trent really doesn't get enough credit for writting this song. Both deserve respects for this song, as you have done. In my eyes, it's one of the most powerful songs. I can't think of another song that resonates at such a level.
Trent Reznor has said in interviews that after hearing this version he was in awe and basically told Johnny Cash that the song was his now. ❤
I always liked the original version but this version gets to me every time I hear it. His voice just resonates with a lifetime of ups and downs, failures and successes. This theme is universal and timeless. It resonates across borders, cultures, religion, age, sex, politics....etc. The reactions are perfect. Thank you for this video
This was him singing a song wrote by another, but it fit his life so much... And he passed away so shortly after he made this video, this was his farewell and reminder to us all.
I've seen another reaction video where the reactor just wanted to hug his family after listening to this song as performed by the late Johnny Cash.
When a man finally sheds his ego he realises what holds true importance in life most the time its to late, we are only humans.
Music is universal, I really appreciate how these two gentlemen absolutely got the song, not just heard it, but understood it, felt it. Excellent commentary from both of them as well.
... and coming from a completely different musical background, I was amazed.
Absolutely agree
I love the fact music brings us ALL together. I'm an old white female living in the US. Watching these videos with the Tribe! Confirms we DO NOT hate each other. Bless you my brothers.
This song shows so plainly that all people share more than they know. When Trent Reznor wrote and recorded it it held meaning to him and his fans. When Cash covered it. It held meaning to him and a whole new group of people. And these folks who are from a whole different culture feel it and find meaning. It's beautiful
These men are INCREDIBLY insightful! Wonderful to watch them.
This amazing rendition of "Hurt" is a refection of a old man's life, but the song was written by a young man. Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails wrote this about something totally different sometime in his 20's. It's truly a totally different song when done by Nine Inch Nails. Same song, different perspective.
They both battled addiction.
@@sandracox4341 Trent's is from the perspective of a young man, drowning in addiction and looking for a way out.
Johnny's is a completely different perspective, an old man at the end of his life who went through that same battle, and looking back on all of the things he did to those he loved with regret.
What an amazing emotional reaction and on point review of these two great men. Loved to watch and hear what they said. Please, more of music reactions of them two. Love from Germany 🧡
The only cover in history to be better then the original and NIN admitted it. I love you Johnny, been a staple in my life since birth. Wrote english essays on his songs throughout high school. God bless and I miss you a lot buddy.
I could listen to the older gentleman for hours. He is wise and well spoken.
Beautiful reaction. Both gentlemen got it. Communication between cultures at it's best. Thank you for posting.
The first time I heard Johnny Cash singing this song on the radio I was driving down a major interstate highway. My eyes started to well up with tears and I had to pull over and park in for a couple minutes in the emergency lane to get myself together. It still sometimes has the same effect on my. R.I.P Johnny.
Absolutely the best reaction ever 💗 Thank you for your perspective on this song ..you speak the truth.God have mercy on us 🙏💔
people who are trully conected with reality and their emotions! this is how I want to be
I can't listen to this song without crying. It's so beautiful and painful. I loved seeing how it moved them.
I'm kind of surprised you haven't had them listen to Pink Floyd yet. Talk about moving. Every song of theirs is more beautiful than the last, and the live shows are absolutely amazing, especially the Pulse concert. *Comfortably Numb* from Pulse is legendary and ends with what is generally considered to be one of the greatest guitar solos ever recorded. 💜🎸🤘🏽
Thank you Trent Reznor and Rick Rubin !
Johnny didn't even want to do this song and Rick kept at him until he agreed.
Awesome how emotional everyone gets hearing this version.
The elder man really does understand what Johnny Cash was singing about! Life is vibrant when you are young, but with age, those things simply fade....what you are left with is memories of what used to be...but it takes on a deeper meaning! I really appreciate the wisdom in these tribal people!!! Sure makes sense as I still try to understand my aging myself. Really liked this!
At 40 years old I’ve found one positive to the internet and social media era. People from all cultures and corners of the world can come together and share… that’s incredible.
Trent released this song when he was 29. This video really expresses the genius of his writing. Trent's genius is matched by Johnny's soul poured into his performance. Even Trent recognized and adored this version of his song. Two great artists came together to this is the result. I do wish though, that these men were aware of the whole story behind this performance because their honesty and genuine thoughtfulness is so very clear. I'd love to hear more of their thoughts.
Johnny Cash is an American icon who breaks the barriers between music genres. Everyone knows Cash. He helped many musicians get their start. I grew up with his music. My father and he had the same job in the military. And he looks a lot like my dad in younger years. Dad will be 92 in 2 months. And hearing this reminds me of him and his life.
in a world where people praise mediocrity this man is a true legend It's a shame people under 40 or 45 know anything
The most accurate take on a song’s lyrics I have ever heard. Very wise men indeed!❤
The older I get the more this song hits. The first time I was a kid, now I'm a dad and a old man. Always tear up listening to this wisdom.
Oh my! This was one of your best videos to date. The older gentleman needs to do more of these, he’s a real gem.
Greatest cover I ever heard. It's for all of our lives. When you start getting older and you think about people you clashed with or loved and they went before you did. Things that you wished you said or didn't say. Just pure mortality. It sucks....but it is the rollercoaster.
This was Cash’s last song, such a beautiful song, and end to his life, he was an amazing musician
Johnny Cash lived a life that many people know. He struggled with addiction at points, which strained many of his relationships and drove people away from him. His songs have that familiar bravado because he sings from the heart about his experiences, rather than a fantastic spectacle.
Like many idols of older generations, he struggled. He struggled desperately. And his talent saw him through. So in his late life, he spent a significant amount of time trying to repent and repair his relationships.
If he only knew something about the man who wrote that song, and the man who helped Johnny to sing it. And everything that happened in between 💜
Would love to see their reaction to "Vincent" by Don McLean. Most people know it as "Starry starry night"
When Johnny Cash covered this song, it sounded completely different. It’s so painful and pleasant to watch and listen to. It’s so sad and at the same time very warm that a person lived such a strong, difficult and huge life. Thanks for the reaction from Russia!
I love this guy's reaction.. I'm barely middle-aged & I feel the same when I hear Johnny Cash sing this rendition! ❤
"life is a journey towards death".
NAILED IT.
Both of these men had such beautiful ways of expressing how the song made them feel. They were each saying exactly my own feelings for which I couldn't seem to string together a coherent sentence to explain. I love when someone describes something in a way that is exactly perfect for whatever they're describing while simultaneously being something I would never have thought on my own.
I am AMAZED Reznor was against this at first, then heard this version and broke down in tears. You can hear his emotion in this song. This will forever be my favorite Johnny Cash song.
I feel connection with this elder. May God bless him.
The older gentleman's reaction has me in tears.
I first heard this version of Hurt as a student and I started crying right away. I wish I would have showed this to my grandmother, she would have loved it.
Thank you for the subtitles.. i really enjoyed listening to what you two think and feel about this music.
This old fellow really shows he cares as he expresses his interpretation. It resonates with him.
The sorrow on Uncle's face moves me so much. My own father, may he rest in peace, wore the same expression when he listened to it.
He could only stand it once, despite enjoying Cash very much.
This song always hits me hard as I get older. 😢 Loved seeing these two watching the video and giving us their thoughts.
Your analysis is so important because it shows that music breaks all barriers. Your feelings about this song are so correct, we all feel pain of different kinds, no matter who we are or where we live. You both have beautiful souls!
Things like this are one of the best things about the internet. The man on the right did a better job explaining the meaning of this song so much better than I ever could.
A very intelligent and heartfelt reaction. Two gentleman with compassion.
Trend Reznor, the writer of the song, was in his late 20s when he wrote it. Johnny Cash was in his 60s when he sang it. Both of them had seen some stuff. Lived some hard lives.
What a great reaction from these guys! Music has no boundaries. I was never a Johnny Cash fan but this song gets me every time I hear it. The pain and regret makes me sad for him and I can't help reflecting on my own life. Beautiful song.
“Education is mandatory, but experience matters the most.” Wise words from a wise soul
Johnny Cash knew that he was going to die, and this was his last video. It was so powerful.
The song is a profound combination of Trents music, Johnnies interpretation of the lyrics and powerful visuals. It transcends cultures and language.
This elder gives an adroit interpretation of what they saw and heard.
Its inspiring to see these gentleman affected so deeply by this work.
So heartbreakingly sad and when you shedded tears and reached for a tissue I broke down as well. Music is a universal language that everyone understands, and this reaction was just very meaningful and beautiful. With all the chaos in the world knowing that the majority of humanity longs for love and peace makes it even better. Just beautiful.
As I get older this song becomes more and more personal. No one lives a life without regret.
I love how music transcends race creed religion etc, it’s such a beautiful thing to witness someone from another culture feel the exact same way I do when I hear this song
This is the magic of music. A masterpiece song about addiction written by an industrial metal god gets covered by an icon of country and western who filters it thru his own unique lens and it becomes a touchstone of humanity throughout the world 🌟🦇🌟
Interesting and accurate breakdown of the video.
Man this older guy sums it up beautifully.
"Education is mandatory, but experience matters the most." .... This man understands the truth.
Its weird how even if you dont understand a language you can still feel the emotions from the song
This is the most coherent and insightful song review I have ever read.
Let us love this man, for he is wise...
The older gentleman has an incredible analysis of the song after just listening to it once. Great man.
You guys should check out the movie Walk the Line. It’s about Johnny Cash’s early life and career. The music and performances are all fantastic and Joaquin Phoenix looks and sounds so much like him when he was young.
It's amazing how music bridges the spoken language barrier in such a succinct way 😢
I'm always amazed at the universal ability music has to connect cultures on the grounding principles of life
