Johnny Cash is a music GOD!!
I'm really diggin' his cover of NIN - 'Hurt'. Possibly the best song I've ever heard about drug addiction.

What could I possibly say about the Man in Black?
The guy is what Elvis should have been. What lots of people think Elvis is. A songwriter above his peer group. A storyteller with no peer. I love this man's works.

Brandon, I believe his new LP is titled 'The Man Comes Around'. It also contains covers of Depeche Mode's 'Personal Jesus' & Bridge Over Troubled Water (duet w/ Jewel?). It's definitely got some hits and misses, but it IS a fine listen.

Hopefully more Hits. I've heard the version of NIN and trying to picture Johnny singing the same song...
I have heard him sing a soundgarden song (Johnny does amazing things), kinda like that new Willie Nelson C.D. that he sings with Kid Rock! That's pretty good stuff as well.
