I can't vote, because I've only heard Hurt (is it called that?) once or twice. But, I only needed to hear it once to realise that it's a fantastic song. I must get into Cash's music. There's a DVD of the music including the film.
well i regarded all country music as that country pop crap that you see on like "nashville stars", or dixie chicks, etc. (very narrow minded view of music up until like three years ago) but i saw the movie, my buddy and i started listening to his early stuff, i found a best of that had One, Hurt and a few other american recording songs on it and so i started looking for the albums that had those songs on it, found them and started listening to them. i listened to the early stuff first but the late stuff, its just deeper in a way. A boy named sue is still funny as hell no matter how many times i listen to it.
i'm still a little restricting in my music choices but in the past year i've listened to and enjoyed: the clash, Arcade Fire, decemberists, pink floyd, Aerosmith (Random 80s hits) The Doors, The Who, Cream, David Bowie, Bob Dylan, Elton John, Eric Clapton, Frank Sinatra, Pavoratti, Queen, Styx, Neil Young, Ray Charles, Louis Armstrong.
i mean if i hear some song by a band, or watch them perform, 9 times out of 10 if i liked it when i heard it, ill listen to them more and like more songs and become a fan. thats the definition of a fan. you have to realize that there are stlll people out there that dont like either of the movies or the music. the movies are just a way to explain the story of their life that we may not know about. but those helped open up music to me that i disregarded before. i see no problem in it
"if asking, begging and pleading doesn't work, always go with a song and dance number."

Yes, his interpretation of the song is amazing. The original Nine Inch Nail version has a very different emotion. And the Reznos/ Bowie duet is something that's worth hearing too, reminds me of Cash's version. I haven't seen the film but after I have listened to the cover version of Depeche Mode's "Personal Jesus" by Cash I think I have to find the movie and then listen to some of his records. However I don't think he'll become one of my favourite artists...
On ne voit bien qu'avec le coeur. L'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux. Welcome to My blogspace and to Myspace
I only know "ring of fire", "i walk the line", "i've been everywhere" and his cover of "in my life"! but they are quite good, not his voice on "in my life" though!
