- Опубликовано: 29 май 2024
- Before today I had never heard a Johnny Cash song. I know this is a cover to the Nine Inch Nails song and I made sure to listen to that last night on my own so that I could get a better understanding of Johnny Cash's cover today but man... Johnny Cash sure knew how to pull at my heart strings in this one.
Hurt is one of those songs that I won't be able to listen to all the time due to how emotional it is but It is a song I will never forget!
Here is my reaction to hearing Johnny Cash - Hurt for the first time. I hope you enjoy it!

NIN’s songwriter, Trent Reznor responded to Cash’s “Hurt” cover with: “I wasn’t prepared for what I saw, and it really then, wasn’t my song anymore. It is Johnny’s song now.”
Aye Jeff! ☘️🇺🇲
And he where so right in sayings that, Johnny Cash’s version are so much better, not often I’ve would say that abound a cover, but Johnny hit it right on the nail whit this one, may he R.I.P 🪦 a true legend
Johnny Cash is one of the few men in history who LIVED life to the fullest, with all the glory and despair such an undertaking provides. It is the epitome of what William Wallace once said “Every man dies, but not every man really lives”
Trent didn't like the cover very much.....until he saw the video. Then he said Johnny owned it. Or so I've seen in an interwiew.
Their is so much more emotional impact in cashes version, I'm not by any means a fan of of cash but this song is on my play list and has been for a while now.
His wife died 3 months after this johnny died 8 months after that , he played it to his daughters and they said it sounds like your saying goodbye , he said i am
Johnny knew exactly what he was doing.
😞
The woman in the picture by the stairs is his Mother n Law treated him better than his mother. The figure of tge woman watching him was his wife before she died.
This version is just devastating. One of the greatest covers ever performed.
Disturbed "Sound of Silence" live from Conan too!
Anyone who doesn't cry when they hear this song should seek counselling
An old man's advice to any youngsters watching this. Life is millions of decisions. 99% of them insignificant. Only 1% of them will set your course so really think before you act. Good luck and have a great life.
so true
You gotta do his younger stuff. Outlaw.
His wife stood by him through thick and thin. She walked with him through hell and back.
where could i find myself one like that
@@erroristmusicdepends on the level of violence you can tolerate
We just had our 40th anniversary, and to this day I would crawl through Hell on my knees to ease the times I disappointed her. The times I wasn't pulling my share of the load.
I'm old enough to feel this song in my bones. Like Johhny, I was a wild assed cuss, always fighting and going to jail. I chased the drugs till they started chasing me. Drank liquor till my liver rolled over and played dead for a while. I deserve the aches and pains, I sure invested in them.
When you get close enough to almost see the finish line, your worries aren't for yourself. You worry about the one person you want to shield from any pain. And the pain of who will go, and who will stay looms larger in your thoughts with each passing of another old friend.
Getting old is about finding strengths you never knew you had. The strength to put your feet on the floor every morning, and face another day. It's facing another doctor young enough to be a grandson. The tenacity to see another bedtime. Each day a victory against the parting glass.
I’m an old school certified metalhead, and Johnny Cash was and always will be The Goat!
Same here. Old country was great. The stuff these days. Not so much.
Same, and true.
Yep. Same here, full metalhead, but I love Johnny Cash.
Getting "older" is not something you become, it's something you wake up to every day of your life.
He was absolutely saying goodbye with this song
Don’t feel bad. This song gets to everyone. Now you know why Johnny Cash is considered a legend.
The older I get, the more I feel this. You will be surprised at how quickly 30-40 years happens
HA!! You will be surprised how 66 sneaks up. Life experiences makes us what we are today, but I'm so bummed, there is no going back. Just rewind me!
You got that right!!
Getting old aint for the weak! Respect to all those who ran the race of life to its end!
Getting old definitely isn't for sissies! You gotta be tough to get through with an old, broken body from working and playing hard.
@@neilholland3415 At 63 years old, I had a blast getting old, it's only when you let the feeling of being old get you down that sucks. I got older but I refuse grow up.
Johnny Cash was one of the original "rockstars" when it came to "living that lifestyle" of sex, drugs n rock n roll.
You can watch the movie 'Walk the line' with Joaquin Phoenix to get an idea of how insane it was
"Walk the line" is the best music movie I ever watched and Joaquin Phoenix did a great acting job. Highly recommendable!
"Everytime an old person dies, a library burns down."
I cry every time I watch this video. I made my father watch it and he fought back tears. It's all good man...everyone cries by the end of this powerful video.
☝️
So it is.
If this song doesn't bring tears to your eyes, you have no heart ❤️✌️
Johnny was a country music legend and badass. He passed not too long after this. Trent Reznor said, “it’s his song now”.
He was a musical legend.
The Man in Black is a legend.... " A Boy Named Sue," Ring of Fire" "I've Been Everywhere " "I Walk the Line"
Thank god Rick Rubin got him in the studio to make these songs
That is exactly what I was thinking!!!❤ Rubin really revitalized John's career, and in doing so brought his legacy to new generations of listeners.
Apparently he did a Tears for Fears song without getting permission. Their reaction was " it's Johnny Cash, he can do it if he wants! ( paraphrasing)"
Johnny was a true pioneer of real Rock & Roll music starting out at the same time as Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, and Elvis. Even though he is primarily associated with country music, he has been influential to countless performers from every genre of music. He had his demons with drugs and substance abuse which almost killed him on more a few occasions. But because of help from his second wife, June Carter Cash, and faith in God he got clean, but still struggled the rest of his life. So this song was perfect for him to cover, making it his own.
Johnny truly knew about addiction and pain. He walked the line. That's why he could take this song and make it his own
A rare example of a cover being even better than the original. With everything Johnny had gone through in his life, his drug problems, and the family members he'd lost, the song suited him so well but took on a slightly new meaning. It's still about regret and mourning the effects of choices he'd taken, but it's also an old man looking back on his life as its end draws near, dwelling on the pain he'd both felt and caused. It's a goodbye and an apology for being flawed.
But...we all are, so it resonates. It could be a song sung by any of us.
A prime example of how Johnny Cash can take someone else's song and make it his own.
Rest in peace Jonny, no more pain.
I remember when Johnny Cash died. I was in a record store ironically when the news broke over our phones. I looked up to another shopper and said, "Johnny Cash died." He said, "I know." We embraced in silent tears. And spoke no words.
This is the essence of Johnny Cash. He will make you FEEL things. Things you may not want to feel, but you should. His genius is not as a musician, but how he can speak to your soul through the music. There are better players, better singers, but there are no better performers that can make you understand
Johnny had drug issues. Amphetamines and Barbiturates. His wife June Carter struggled as well. You should watch the movie Walk the Line.
Im 59 years old and his version of Hurt breaks me up every time... His voice carries so much pain and regret... It is his song now... He earned it... Even Trent Reznor said so. This song is permanently on my playlist... But I have to be careful about when I play it because it tears me up. Thanx for sharing! ✌️😎👍
Nobody wants to get old but like the falling leaves, we must make room for the next generation of growth and life. Remember, growing old is a blessing that some people never get to experience.
The NIN version is about a young music artist dealing with addiction feeling he has no future, the JC version is about an old music legend reflecting on his past in spite of his addiction, and both of them saying even though it was hell to live they would do it all over again for both good and bad reasons. It really comes full circle because Trent can identify with Johnny and Johnny recognized some of himself in Trent. Truly a bitter sweet moment in music history.
“If I could start again, a million miles away, I will keep myself, I will find a way”
I don’t agree that this lyric means “they’d do it all over again”. I think it pretty clearly means, “I want a second try, to get it right this time”.
There's a great move about Johnny Cash called "Walk The Line". Watch it and it'll give you the background you need.
There's also a great performance Johnny did at Glastonbury a few years ago before he passed. He was overwhelmed because he thought he was forgotten about. But thousands of people turned up to see him and knew all of his songs - it blew him away.
I have listened to this song hundreds of times and have cried every single time. It resonates.
Fun Fact: San Quentin is where Johnny Cash played his first-ever prison concert on January 1, 1958-a concert that helped set Merle Haggard, then a 20-year-old San Quentin inmate, on the path toward becoming a country music legend.

You recognize the sincerity in his singing and the words. Its beautiful.
The way Johnny caresses the closed piano at the end of the video, saying goodbye to it 😭😭
This one hits all of us in the gut. Johnny Cash was one of the first cross-over country artists who stayed humble. He struggled with pills early in his career. You are seeing flashes of his career over decades in this video. He played with artists of all colors, which was not done back in his younger days. Each artist sort of stayed in their own lanes but Johnny broke the rules. You should find his 'why I wear the black' that he played before a college crowd. Powerful. Excellent reaction.
Feel the feels, don't stop them, you don't have to turn away, we all cry to this together ❤
The fact that Johnny covered a NIN song floored me when I heard this. I cried. I hurt the entire time. He knew what he was doing. A true legend. There will never be anyone else like him
😢💔🔥 RIP JOHNNY CASH 😇❤️🩹🌹 BEAUTIFUL REACTION MOLLYBOY 💙.
The late great Mr. Cash... He also contacted Chris Cornell for permission to cover Soundgarden's "Rusty Cage". The immediate response was shock and a big yes. Seems like Mr. Cash was up on current music, and respected it. Love your reactions and your feelings. Let out the tears, they can be healing.
My Daddy loved Johnny Cash. So we did too. Despite all his failings, he was a good man who loved good music. Thats why he recorded this. Respect.
He leaves me speechless,and full of thoughts
Everyone understands regret.
Seeing a man’s entire life flash across the screen in 3 minutes as he sings about wishing he could have another try… it hits us all in a place we don’t like to visit.
This is a man who lost himself somewhere along the way, and despite all his fame and fortune, reaches the end of his journey with regret, painful memories of mistakes that will continue to haunt him until his final day.
What do you regret? What WILL you regret? When your journey reaches its conclusion, will you have lived the life you wanted, or betrayed yourself in pursuit of an empire of dirt?
Very well put, my friend. Dust to dust hits harder when you realize, it's all dirt. No one gets out alive. No one.
Sooo, do you want to make some mud pies? I'm trying to learn to love it for what it is - mine. My dirt. Empires will rise and fall on top of my dust. Maybe if I'm lucky, I'll make a mfker sneeze. Heh. ❤
Your emotions mirror most people's emotions when hearing this.
Beautiful reaction! I'll hit subscribe. I love Johnny Cash. He wrote brilliant storytelling songs about the common man and the downtrodden. He did concerts for inmates in prisons. He himself had a very tough life from the get go. Grew up dirt poor, had a drug problem, went to prison, all that. He became famous, married June Carter (the woman on the stairs) and found Faith and happiness. He was one of a kind!
"I don't know why that made me feel the way it did?" I do. Johnny Cash was a master at his craft and you can't help but be in awe when he is on his game. There are people in this world that are truly touched with an ability (of whatever craft it may be) and I am blessed to be able to experience their works. RIP Mr. Cash and thank you for touching so many of us ... right in the feels.
The amount of wisdom that Johnny dished out in this version of NIN's song is incomparable. I think that if it doesn't hit the feels HARD then the feels aren't there.
The thing about Johnny was that he wasn't ever bullshitting or mailing it in. Authenticity was his hallmark.
Also wrote the coldest line ever: "I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die."
Johnny Cash," the man in Black". Such a great musician and song writer of his own songs. RIP Johnny!❤😂🎉
Love Nine Inch Nails, but Johnny nailed it.
I’m not a country a fan. But this man is beyond everything. Trent couldn’t even break your heart like Johnny. He was absolutely singing at the end of his life. This is magical. This man s important. ❣️
Last recorded music video for dear departed Jonny Cash, The Original Man in Black. Beautiful
NIN"s version of this song touches your heart, Johnny's version touches your soul.
It was a pleasure to see a young man like yourself have such an honest reaction to Johnny Cash. To understand who Johnny cash was and what he stood for you should seriously listen to his song, "Man in Black".
NIN was singing about addiction. Johnny was singing about regrets at the end of life. Tragically beautiful.
watch how he closes the piano at the end and puts his hands on it (strokes it) - remind you of someone putting their hands on a coffin of a loved one???? - it does me
It made me feel like he was almost closing his own coffin, or the coffin of his past failures and successes.
This song always make me cry and it doesn't matter how many times I hear. This song reminds me of my grandparents.
If this version doesn't make you cry, you are dead inside. RIP to a total legend. This cover and Disturbed's Sound Of Silence are two of the best cover version of all time.
I really like and love myself as an old lady now. When he says he's become his own sweetest friend, aint' that the truth? And you don't give a damn what anyone thinks. Being able to grow into my later years is a challenge, and an unlimited blessing. Johnny Cash's rendition of this song is so heartfelt, and brilliant. Can't hear it without crying.
As we get old we do become a collector of memories, our successes and our mistakes, our pride and our losses. We slowly start to reminisce more than make plans. The difficult part is accepting that we cannot change the past, we cannot start over again, and just have to make our peace with what has been and hope it is enough.
THIS is why we LOVE music...it can touch your soul in ways nothing else can.
The Man in Black is the definition of a legend...and this song along with the imagery is one of the most heartbreaking experiences
This song means so much to me. I've loved NIN since I was a teenager. My grandma loved Johnny Cash. It's a really deep song for me in that regard
Do Not Forget Johnny Cash is punk rock Icon. A musical Hero !
Johnny is one of the greatest artists to ever live. He's from my home state of Arkansas. I've been to his childhood home - the small white farm house in this video. I listened to this song sitting outside of the house. Words can't describe how it felt. Rest in Peace JC
He was well aware that this was it.
The song is about regrets and life, but the event of watching and listening to this song is
saying, "Goodbye".
Being able to say goodbye is a gift.
You never know the last time you may see a friend, family, a woman you love.
Knowing one is saying goodbye is one of the worst heartaches there is.
Losing someone and not being able to IS the worst.
In the last seconds of this song, as he closes the piano, I feel he is closing it for the last time, knowing he will never open it again.
As a old musician and someone to whom there is no life without music, it rips my heart out every time.
Tears? Are you kidding me?
Every. Single. Effing. Time.
"...not all tears are an evil.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien,
Johnny was only (70) when this song was released. He lead a hard life...
RIP Johnny. The man in black. I can’t express the amount of love I have for this man. You need to check out so many from him. But right along these lines the next one should be God’s Gonna Cut You Down.
I remember when this song/video came out. It was before the days of RUclips. I honestly can't even remember how I watched it, but it was on my computer. I had already been a huge NIN fan, and stood 8 feet from Trent Reznor when he closed out a concert in the late 90's with this song. That was the most incredible concert experience of my life, and will never be topped. When Johnny Cash released this cover, I broke down in tears. It was haunting. It felt like Trent wrote the song for Johnny, or you could envision Trent singing it as an old man. You couldn't write a script better than this. And then his wife died shortly after, and then he died. And the song had even more meaning, and weight.
I can't believe that was all in 2003. I don't know what's happening to time, but I can't believe it was 21 years ago. I'm almost an old man compared to my 20-something self!!!
You don't want to get old, but unless you die young, you will get old and wonder what happened to all the years.
Nothing wrong with showing emotion. Looks like you have a tender heart. Don't ever lose it. I always cry when I hear this song and see the video. It is so powerful. He was a man of faith, and I love the scenes he put in the video of Christ dying for our sins, and the powerful message of that alone.
Thanks for reacting to this one.
This music video is one of the greatest ever made. Stunning achievement.
A treasure gone but never forgotten through his music!!
This turns out to be an ode to his long and amazing life. Johnny passed away soon after his wife June. He loved her dearly, and his loneliness after her passing was too much for him. They say he died of a broken heart. This man lived one hell of a life.
Cash is one of the few that's in the Rock Hall of Fame, the Country Hall, and the Songwriter's Hall. He wasn't really a country singer... he was a genre all unto himself.
A Heart-wrenching song from an artist that has been in many lives for 50yrs.
This version of “Hurt”, Produced by Rick Rubin, is truly final cap on his career. A heart breaking swan song.
Johnny was a drug addict and alcoholic at one time and this song reflects his struggles with ill health because of it. The woman in the background on the stairs was his wife, June Carter, also a country singer, who died before this was actually released. He died just months after she did. At the end of his life, it’s a song of regrets.it brings me to tears every time. I love this version and also Trent Reznor’s original, almost 2 different songs. I grew up in the 50s listening to Cash, because he was one of my now 92 year old Dad’s favorites.
You want to get old. Think of the alternative. His wife in the video passed away shortly after the video was made, and he passed away not long after her. He was a wild man in his youth.
Johnny Cash, was a fantastic singer but he had his demons drink, drugs and he even spent time in prison. His lyrics are amazing every song tells an amazing story.
This is an amazing performance by a man saying goodbye & looking at his life with a few regrets. Johhny had his battles in the early days, a few nights in jail, drugs etc. His love for his wife June saved his life. For a song that literally tells you what this man thought about life, check out his live performance of 'The Man in Black'.(he mostly wore black in his personal life, maybe adding a white shirt under his jacket. He obviously, had to wear costumes when he did movies) He was at a college campus for the video of his first performance of it. Check it out.
one of the greatest covers ever....when tren reznor heard it he said....its not our song any more.
Oh Molly Boy !...
Johnny is the Man !... there's so much to say but I see many have already started to fill you in on him... I'll just make some recommendations
💥... God's Gonna Cut You Down
💥...The Man Comes Around
For a younger lighter touch
💥...A Boy Named Sue...played at a prison for inmates..1966
I hope you find enjoyment visiting this legend...
🌿🌿🌿
Johnny lived a very tough life in which addiction played a big part. He was a soulful and big hearted man with, by his own admission, many demons. However, like all great artists, he didn’t try to hide the ugliness. He shared his truth thereby allowing many others to face themselves. Although his voice was never perfect, he had something to say and I believe we can all agree that we’re glad he persevered. What a blessing. RIP Johnny 🙏❤️🙏
Powerful song, Johnny makes you feel it. I cry every time I hear his version. Yes, he knew he was on his last days, after June died, he felt his life was so very empty.
Soul touching.
The spirit of Jonny Cash lives on in every middle finger ever given since his death
When he spills the wine. You know he knew… Johnny cash is a legend.,and when he closes the piano at the end it’s like he’s closing up for good and saying goodbye to everyone.
A great song sung by Johnny. Don't be fearful of growing old as there is only one permanent and unpalatable alternative.
Johnny was no stranger to heroin and addiction and surely at his periods of dark times in his life. I think that he made a song like this popular in his older days is just remarkable. It's really powerful. Peace!
Hey man, no need to apologize for reacting emotionally to this song. It makes me cry every time. I’m 68 years old and friggin happy to be here. Do you know what the secret to ageing well is? Maintain your youthful enthusiasm and wonder about the world. Stay curious. Keep learning. Cultivate your sense of humour. Do your best to stay healthy and fit. Try new things all the time. The world is a wondrous place. You are a thoughtful young man and your reaction videos. Make me smile. Cheers from Canada.
Wow!!! Watching Johnny in this video is haunting.... very heavy.. I'm so glad you played this gem..sometimes we need a reality check & this song certainly delivered ❤
Cash is a legend! I don’t care what music you like- he is the man!!
You should really listen to his song A Boy Named Sue!
It shows a whole different side of Johnny, one you’ll
enjoy and maybe you’ll see why he was so loved. In his
younger days he spent a night or two in jail so sort of as
payback, he did a concert at Folsom Prison, which was
pretty incredible. In the 40’s, 50’s, 60’s, it was common
for performers to take uppers then downers, just to keep
up with all the travelling, performing and such and he
did become addicted as well as drinking. His wife helped
him through it all, took him to rehab and such, so he had
lots of experience with that but overcame it. He had a
tough life but loved music, his friends, his fans and most
of all wife and kids. He is missed…our man in black. ❤
AMAZING how two different artists sing the SAME SONG and it feels COMPLETELY DIFFERENT, to me....STILL can't make it thru this video without just TEARING-UP!! Thanks for the reaction, Mols!! HUGS!
You Are My Sunshine is a Johnny Cash song that makes me cry I can’t even listen to it. My grandma used to sing it to me when I was really little.
Bro this song just hits, that is all. We all have the fear we will have regrets at the end, and he just nails that emotion so precisely. It's truly amazing
Your honest reaction is the best.
Brings me to tears everytime...every fucking time....
This song meant a lot to Johny Cash.He lived these words. His heroin addiction. Losing the lives of everyone around him. His wife etc etc. This song means a lot to even people like me, we at one time had the world. Success. Power. Happiness. When it all goes away, you truly realize it was all dirt to begin with, aside from the family and love.
Keep it going kid. You're doing it right.
I think it makes us all feel the same way. Dude, I just turned 60 and it feels like yesterday I was at a Rush concert, a Van Halen concert, drinking, partying and having the time of my life :)
Quite possibly the best cover version ever
Much respect to you. Music should make you feel emotion.
I listened to Simon and Garfunkel today, Sound of Silence, and, at 64 yrs old, it made me cry. I've heard it many times before, but today I listened and man, what a powerful song!
He has no idea whats coming with this song. hit me like a two-ton heavy thing.
No matter how I prepare, I can never get through this video without crying. No matter how many times I see it.
Nice Empire reference 👍
