Hurt
Johnny Cash covered this Nine Inch Nails song and it is perhaps the best cover of a song I've ever heard (sorry Mr. Hendrix). I am not a fan of music video but even the video is well done. This song is so haunting...
i hurt myself today to see if i still feel i focus on the pain the only thing that's real the needle tears a hole the old familiar sting try to kill it all away but i remember everything what have i become? my sweetest friend everyone i know goes away in the end you could have it all my empire of dirt i will let you down i will make you hurt i wear this crown of shit upon my liar's chair full of broken thoughts i cannot repair beneath the stains of time the feelings disappear you are someone else i am still right here what have i become? my sweetest friend everyone i know goes away in the end and you could have it all my empire of dirt i will let you down i will make you hurt if i could start again a million miles away i would keep myself i would find a way

It's almost like Johnny's waving goodbye.

Great video! Absolutely well done. Probably his last, unfortunately.

I heard this on NPR and couldn't believe it. NIN is better by a slim margin.
