Johnny Cash Rules!....have U Seen His

[brotherdoobie]

Johnny Cash "The Man In Black" is back and better than ever.
It's nice to see someone on MTV that is 70 years old and still kicks ass.
instead of the usual pretty boy no talent wanna be!

His voice is layered in experience,something that can only come with time or thru hardships and probaly truth be told both.

This video is one of the best videos ever,excellent directing.
and for him to let them show him in this raw of a way took some
balls.........big ones.

Fred Durst are u listening.........break stuff indeed :rolleyes:
I am a fan of all music by the way(if it's good)
and I do like Limp Bizkit......but sometimes u feel like doing more than
fu*king hoes and dancing........lol ;)

Peace Paul

I couldn't agree more. Johnny Cash at 70 years old put out a record that better than 90% of the crap that's out there. Granddad's music I think not, try listening to Folsom Prison Blues man. But it is a shame that it has gotten very little air play and little attention because of Johnny's age. If he was a 19-22 year old singing this song MTV would play it non stop, but his image doesn't fit in.

Johnny Cash - The Man!

I'm so glad to see some other fans of The Man In Black. I remember listening to his music as far back as 1970 or 1971 (I was around 5, and he was my fathers favorite musician).


American IV: The Man Comes Around

This album includes several of the best covers done in the past decade. Trent Reznor's "Hurt" was a good song with Nine Inch Nails, though somewhat over-produced and pretentious with its background industrial sounds and its ham-handed gothic imagery. Johnny Cash strips it down to its barest meaning, and makes it the loneliest sound in the world. One realizes that the lyrics were actually brilliant. Cash does the same with Depeche Mode's "Personal Jesus," which--sung in his powerful bellow--becomes more than a smug, ironic song by an electronica pop-band, but a powerful piece about desperation. Simply put, no one can deliver a song with the depth of feeling and nuances of Johnny Cash, and the numerous covers only show how he can add layers even to songs that have become cliche. Those criticizing this album are simply asking it to be a different animal altogether--catchier, sunnier, easier to absorb. But this is a painful album, and Johnny Cash sings with as much as wisdom in his voice as any artist since Bob Dylan's prime. In fact, THE MAN COMES AROUND will make you nostalgic for the slightly off-key but brilliantly soulful duets from NASHVILLE SKYLINE. Cash also chooses some wonderful back-up voices here, using Fiona Apple to great effect in "Bridge over Troubled Water," and teaming up with another baritone, Nick Cave, for a great revamping of Hank Williams. The album is ecletic, inventive, and one of the best genre-crossing displays of talent in many years.

I've got that here somewhere - but things are a mess, and I cannot find it at the moment :angry:

I need to get myself organized and find it.

Tchau!
