      The Million Dollar Quartet members were all known for Rock N Roll and the occasional gospel song. The reason why it is considered “country” now days is because radio stations couldn’t market it as rock n roll back then or no one would buy it. It was all a ploy to get Elvis on country music stations.
      If you go compare country in the 1950s and 1960s, to what the MDQ was playing, it was very different styles of music.

    The lady who appears periodically is June Carter. She truly was the love of his life, and his wife. The places you see him visit were real places from his brutal childhood and his past. You said you felt like this was his song. Trent Reznor thought the same thing and literally gave the song to him. This video was released months before his death and is considered by most who grew up listening to him his eulogy. The imagery of Jesus Christ reflects he was a very deeply Christian man, and at the same time a very deeply broken man. He lived God's grace. This song and its performance is at a depth that very few can know before they go back to God. When you watched this, you witnessed a true masterpiece from a true master.

    At the time, Johnny Cash had a Parkinson's-related illness called Shy-Drager syndrome, within a year of this song's release, June Carter Cash passed away - four months later, Johnny would follow. One of my childhood memories was of getting my parent's old TV in my bedroom, this was the days before cable, but I was excited that I could watch "The Johnny Cash Show." I was able to see him in concert 4 times (once with The Highwaymen), and after one of the shows I actually found myself face to face with this lifelong hero. My buddy and I were driving home after a Randy Travis concert and the news came on the radio that Johnny passed. When I got home, I took the DVD of this music video and played it over and over as I cried. To this day, it still brings tears to my eyes. This is coming from someone with many decades of "relationship" with the artist. I was touched that you felt the sadness too.

    Johnny took one man's deeply personal song about his battle with addiction, and, turned it into something else entirely. It became a summation of a lifetime of regrets, and, an emotional, heartfelt farewell to the world. Also, Rick Rubin's BRILLIANT production didn't hurt.

      As for Johnny Cash, his back catalog is EXTENSIVE. "A Boy Named Sue", "Folsom Prison Blues", or, "The Man in Black" spring immediately to mind. Also, towards the end of his life, he covered Bob Marley's "Redemption Song", as a duet with Joe Strummer of The Clash. That one is friggin' AMAZING!

      Other fun fact: as read your comment referring to Johnny as "JC" had to chuckle- that Johnny''s initials are the same as Jesus Christ who Johnny often pointed to (not manmade religion) as helping him find real life and hope--as many of us who in that or different ways couldn't keep up with the world's "treadmills" and fell through the cracks and broken.
      And like Johnny, so many of us when we were so down and seemed hopeless" it wasn't "all the experts" who helped n those who "had it all together" nor even the super-religious that reached down.
      B😮ut as if from an unseen world blood-pierced hand of One who has a habit of hanging out with and lifting up from a ditch those whose lives like his are broken and shattered and so often rejected and looked down so often by those " who "still have it all together." 😊

      Whether it's "spilling one for fallen comrades", "pouring one out for dead homies" or "first pour to the departed", it's from the same spirit of honoring those who have gone before us.

    • @Arkryal
      @Arkryal 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      Totally agree, though "God's Gonna Cut You Down" is actually a very old folk-song, and his version was based on Odetta's vocal-only rendition which was equally inspired. Cash brough some great instrumentals to it. Though Marylin Manson's cover of that one from 2019 cuts pretty deep as well. Even people who aren't fans of his music generally have to pick their jaws up off the floor when he goes to a more bluesy style.
      Between the three, I prefer Marylin Manson's.
      Cash's comes in a close second.
      Odetta did amazing, but the instrumentals really took it to a new level. Though she is the one who brought the song into the mainstream (as she did with MANY songs that are now modern staples), so credit where credit is due...

    At 2:38 into this video there is a charcoal portrait of Johnny which is sitting on the floor. I have a story about this picture. My brother, whose stage name was, Lee Dillard at the time, drew it. His manager said, "You need to take this to Johnny." So, my brother took it to his museum, which is shown as closed to the public in the video. He met Johnny's mother there and gave it to her. She said, "Honey, I'll be sure that Johnny gets it. He'll love it." Well, that was in 1987 and that was the last time my brother thought about it. One day about a month ago my brother and his wife were watching videos on Country Music TV and saw this video. They were floored when they saw the picture he did of Johnny in the video! If you look up Lee Dillard Nashville Showcase, here on youtube, you'll see a video of my brother singing at a place called Douglas Corner. Some friends of his recorded it with their video recorder so It's not a professional production but it will do! Trisha Yearwood is singing back up for him. I remember his manager saying that night, "That girl is trying to get a record deal too." Well, she got a record deal and she got Garth Brooks. Ironically, back in 1992, I got the guy who helped Garth get going interested in working with my brother, When it came time for my brother to go on the road he didn't want to leave his family so he came back to Ohio and I stayed in Nashville. If you look my brother up on here and watch that video, make sure you listen to, "Love me" by Jeannie Pruett. It's at the 6 minute mark. He has a range seldom heard in country music!

    That is June Carter Cash, his wife and life long love on the stairs, she wasn't supposed to be in the video. She was upstairs very sick at the time but heard him playing and came down to check on him. She died shortly thereafter. He died just after. True love.

    "I walk the line" is my favorite all time Johnny cash song, besides "Ring of Fire" . Those songs to me depict what military veterans like myself have done for this country since 1776, by signing on the dotted line to put our lives on the line to keep this country free from tyranny, enemies foreign and domestic. That's just how those songs come across to me. Fair winds and following seas Lilly, god bless.

    The closing of the door on the piano keys was symbolic of his own casket closing because he knew he didn't have long. One of his close friends was Elvis Presley. He was part of the Highwaymen group along with Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, and Willy Nelson. All are legendary performers.

    What makes this beautiful song even more emotional, is that his wife passed away 2 months after its release, the he would pass away 4 months after she had.
    Like you, I’m making the journey into Country music. Johnny is a legend for many reasons.
    One of his songs led me to a Vocal Band that I believe successfully blends Country with Popular music, the old with the new, the serious with the comical. If you’re interested, check out Home Free.

    Trent of NIN agreed that Johnny could do a cover. When he heard the audio, he kind of regretted it because it was so personal to himself, but when he saw the video he said, "That's Johnny's song now". June Carter, his wife, was on the stairs looking at him, knowing he was ill. His daughter did the video, and said to her dad, "It sounds like you are saying goodbye." He said, "I am." This video was the last time he played his piano. June died 3 months later and Johnny Cash 7 months later. I'm 73 and a widow after having the love of my life for 48 yrs. I lost him to colon cancer which he survived for nearly 10 yrs. I can't hear this song without it bringing tears. Stunningly, he brought all his regrets forward and stripped his soul bare. Do Ring of Fire, written when he fell in love with June Carter.
    If you want to have a new group on your list, try VoicePlay, maybe Creep (RadioHead), or Nothing Else Matters (Metallica).

    Johnny was an OG for Rock and Roll his first label was Sun Records, his labelmates included Elvis Presley, and Jerry Lee Lewis, among others. This is a man at the end of his life, who saw the foundations of the rock roll era laid, who was admired by everyone, looking back, and giving one last message to those who follow. For everything, there is a price, and if you want this life, this is what it costs. It was his last piece of wisdom, his last message, his last gift, and one last song.

      Alright, watched it all and your reaction is 100% the same of what I had the first time and still have whenever I sit down to listen to this song. Johnny provides a completely new perspective on the original song. The original displays the hurt of being misunderstood by society, whereas Johnny displays the hurt of having to face the reality that all that you have is temporary in the end.
      Loved your reaction!

  • @Swearengen1980

    Single best cover ever made. His voice and inflection is what the darkness inside us sounds like. The focus on negativity and self loathing. Trent's lyrics were something that those of us in recovery or anything with depression can identify with, but Cash made that voice in the back of our minds come to life no matter how long we've been sober.

    Walk the Line is a great movie to begin to understand his life. He released this song and video in March 2003. Most of his family and friends were long gone and he was dying. His wife, June, passed in May of 2003. Johnny would pass in September of that same year. Although Trent Reznor wrote the song, Johnny Cash lived much of it. At the end of our lives, there can be a clarity regarding what was truly valuable and what was just dirt. Don't wait until the end to realize that the people along your journey are more important than the stuff.

    Johnny Cash did a great job covering this NIN song. It makes you realize consequence and regret. It sends a message we should all proceed through life wisely, because there is nothing worse than being stuck with a label, a pain, a sickness, or a death, that we know beforehand will leave us only wishing things had been different and that we could change the choices we made.
    I'd recommend Johnny Cash - Ring of Fire and Folsom Prison Blues

    Cash has several legendary songs: Ghostriders in the Sky ; I walk the line ; A Boy Named Sue ; Ring of Fire ; Folsom Prison Blues are probably his most popular songs. I believe this - Hurt - was recorded just about a year after his beloved wife June Carter Cash passed. He was in poor health and fairly constant pain due to jaw problems that made it hard for him to eat among other things.
