Many reactions to this song. This reaction is by 100 times the best. He listened to the entire performance before saying a word. That is how to do a reaction video.

Johnny brings it down to what it is. It comes down to a man and a guitar. Stand up there and entertain me for 2 hours. Sometimes his songs would have a message, poetic, and profound. Sometimes his songs would make you feel good, laugh and/or cry. He never disappointed, his friendships were a reflection of his openness and honesty and willingness to accept others. A man is who he is with respect to other people. Johnny earned that respect. Thanks Johnny. Thanks for all that great music.

In 71. Things were changing. The opinion about the Vietnam War had turned. Protesting the War was very prevalent. Johnny sang about the American Indians. To the Indians. Going to Prisons. Holding concerts for Prisoners. Johnny Cash had the Voice of the downtrodden. Because he sang about our problems. We felt that our voices were being herd. Not to forget. His love and longing to have America. Stand for what she is suppose to stand for. You can hear it. In his song. Ragged Old Flag. God bless the Man in Black. Rock on !.

Not just in the country hall of fame, but the rock and roll hall of fame and the gospel music hall of fame. Not too shabby. The more you listen, the more you get pulled into his music. Good job again Fil!

I've met a lot of famous actors, athletes and singers. No one entered a room and made the impression Cash did. He, truly, had an aura. He was so impressive but so kind. I'll appreciate him forever.

Back in the 70's when America looked down on youth culture (hippies), Johnny was putting our hero's on his show. He and the Smother's brothers deserve a lot of credit. Johnny looked down on no one.

How appropriate were Johnny's lyrics for those times, and just as appropriate, if not more so, for today's world. I always appreciated his nod to those lost in the Vietnam War, as I am a Veteran of that war. Great review, yet again, Fil! Cheers!

Johnny Cash was truly one of a kind.

Around 1969 I was in a drug store in Mobile, AL and he came in and bought a pack of Winstons. On his way out he nodded at me and said "Son" and then he waved that pack of cigs back and forth like he was telling me not to get hooked on them. But I already was. A moment I will never forget.

All the carcinogens, co-carcinogens, and toxins in the leaves in commercial tobacco are absorbed in your blood stream and poison every part of your body. If ever you really want to kick cigarettes, volunteer in a hospice or hospital and make a friend out of someone in end stage emphysema where your lungs have lost their elasticity to exhale. It'll scare the living crap out of you. Also, tobacco's one of those drugs that if you quit and haven't been a life long smoker, you stand a very high chance of your body's returning to normal. Interesting aside : my cardiologist brother treated June Carter Cash for heart failure. He didn't recognize her at first as she was admitted to his hospital under a "Jane Doe". There was an somewhat bedraggled old man slumped down in a corner chair and when my brother presented June with the few available treatment options, she turned to the man and he said "whatever you want baby, whatever you want". From the timbre in his voice and a closer look at him, it was then that he recognized him as Johnny Cash.

People want and need truth today as well as in 1971. Thank you for this excellent and respectful analysis of Johnny Cash.

In Vietnam-era 1971 I was just out of the military. Never knew this song, and now was powerfully affected by that moment of genius when it unexpectedly transforms into a moving anti-war anthem.

Thank you for your videos

Dazzlingly powerful moment when perfectly but without warning becomes a protest against the most tragic event in modern American history.

When I was a kid in the 60s all Johnny Cash's music sounded the same to me, and not very interesting. The 70s rolled around and we spent months of wages to get good stereo equipment and Johnny started sounding pretty good. In the 90s I learned just how much of a rebel he was. The older I get, the better he sounds on so many levels.

My mom and I were just talking about Johnny Cash! She doesn't understand his appeal, but I love how his voice comes from an authentic place and tells a story. His version of Hurt gives me goosebumps and makes me cry! Reznor hit the nail on the head when he said the song wasn't his anymore.

The great Johnny 💸 Cash... Simple progression. Powerful lyrics... We love Johnny... Tell the truth

Johnny was against the war, but he went and performed for the troops. In keeping with the theme of the song being about the people.

I love the man in black!! Thank you for your reacting to him. Truth all the way.

Johnny was special. I saw him sing this song at the tender impressionable age of 11. Already a bleeding heart owl/water saving enthusiast. Naturally I took his words very much to heart. Wore almost exclusively black from that moment on. Still my first choice. It wasn’t until my thirties that I realized how many cows he wore. I just added the cows to my reason for mourning. This song isn’t pretty. But it reaches. You know I love music that makes you feel. Johnny always delivered that. Love hearing the back stories Fil. Thank you.

damn it I cry every single time ...I met him when I was 6 yrs old he picked me up and sat me on his lap because I was cheeky and asked to be picked up. I remember (at age 54) exactly how it felt so safe and what his laugh was like . He was our Moral compass without preaching. I miss him

I wish country music went back to this. Back when country music was real and honest. Thanks for sharing this video analysis.

Oh yes the iconic Man in Black the incomparable Johnny Cash!!! He was true to himself musically!! I did not know the story about the fire and condors! Thankfully the species survived! Thanks Fil for an always interesting musical history of each artist!...✌💖🤘

What a performer,what a man! Johnny Cash had one of the most extraordinary careers in the history of music,he was there at the birth of Rock n Roll recording at Sun Records,the TV show,prison records,the Highwaymen and against all odds some 40 years after debuting made a great comeback with the American Recordings album in 1994,leading onto a string of acclaimed albums picking up a whole new generation of fans. He was just always able to make himself relevant. Great video,cheers

Great work as always. Interesting trivia. Johnny was the first person outside the Soviet Union to know Stalin died. 1953. What a life! Thanks Fil.

No one kept it so simple yet effective. That voice imo was the world's grandpa. Love and miss him. 🖤🖤🖤

Load your analysis on Johnny Cash. I signed three times live. And luckily got to meet him and shake his hand one time. He was awesome artist

This was a great time in music when musicians told a powerful story in their song. The story told in this song is absolutely brilliant. The lyrics in this song connected with everyone in that audience. This is what music should be.

No one can ever say enough about the greatness of Cash. But you were able to squeeze much into a short video! Rock!!

Johnny Cash was and still is a very prominent artist that appealed to all generes of music. I'm a rocker at heart, but I do enjoy listening to Johnny Cash once in a while.

"Luther Played The Boogie", and the BEST version of "Casey Jones" ever. Great memories. Thanks, Fil!

when i was growing up back in the 60s and early 70s I often heard Johnny Cash being played on record at someone's home or on the radio - and i remember even as a young kid feeling very moved inside by the unique quality of his voice - something about it really made you want to pay attention to the song he was singing

This is one of my all-time favorite songs by Johnny Cash. I also think it’s really cool that you can find on KZread the entirety of him reading the New Testament.

I grew up listening to country music. There were a lot of artists I loved, and Johnny Cash was one of them. I liked a lot of his songs such as: Folsom Prison Blues, I Walk the Line, Ring of Fire, A Boy named Sue and more. My favorites were, A Man in Black and Sunday Morning coming Down. I loved the way he would talk/sing his songs like he was telling a story, which he was. Johnny is a true legend and I really don't know of anyone who didnt like him, he truly was one of the best!

The original Man in Black -- the prolific poet of the people, Johnny Cash! I fell in love w/Johnny Cash and his amazing ability to connect w/ the every day, oftentimes, forgotten man & woman, by accident; I discovered an interview w/Johnny & Bob Costas from the late 80s/early 90s and I was blown away by his brilliance -- what an amazing human being -- so insightful but full of genuine humility & grace and so interesting -- the kind of person you could spend days in conversation with and never grow tired... Thanks for the great analysis, Fil -- you're willing to learn about Artists of every stripe and that could only help to expand your own musical language & ability. Great work, Fil!

Hi Fil, again another fine video. And of course one of my dad's favorites. Johnny Cash was also a fine actor. And I have found in reality, his music is hard to play correctly. I think that's the brilliance of a lot of the arrangements and the guitar work. It sounds like the common man is playing but the band and Johnny were not common artists. Simply brilliant. I remember my dad and my family sitting in front of the television and watching Linda ronstadt's first appearance on the Johnny Cash show. That was really cool. Well again God bless him please take care.

I haven’t heard you play, but I have seen a lot of your videos and I can tell that you are a good guitarist. What I really like about you is that you’re so completely not snobbish.

Instead of boo-hooing about his trials & tribulations, he poured it all out into his music and forver connected himself to anyone who Was facing the hardships of life. Johnny became a representative of the hurting man or woman...that's why he was loved and is still loved today. There's nobody like Johnny...nobody. 🖤

To what extent does the music you listen to, and for that matter the art you view and the books you read, influence you? We used to refer to these things as "the humanities", and I consider them as necessary as air, water and light. And if any person isn't moved by such things, or feel a kinship with the person who created them and the other people who enjoy them as well, then I want to stay far far away from such a person.

In 1996 Johnny was interviewed by a British rock journalist who at one point during the interview admiringly referred to Johnny as “The John Wayne of rock” What description could be more fitting? Johnny was the musical genius who bridged the gap between that classic cowboy all American country music and the modern revolutionary Rock ‘n’ roll that was blossoming in the 50s and 60s. Johnny Cash is basically what it would be like if John Wayne decided to leave acting to pursue a music career as a rockstar.
