It's funny because Trent didn't want Mr. Cash to cover it at first but then later changed his mind and the rest is history.

Great reaction guys! In an interview Johnny's daughter Rosanne said, "When I first heard it I cried and told my Dad, it sounds like you're saying goodbye." Johnny replied, "I am."

Your comment made me cry just like this version by Mister Cash did🙏✌️🕊️💯

I think this rendition is especially poignant to those of us of a certain age who realize there is more of life behind than ahead, and how looking back, we cannot help but see regrets.

This will be played at my funeral. It's like the story of my life. One I could not have written better

That was the last time he played the piano. June died about 3 months later, Johnny 6 months after June. This is such a different song from the 9" Nails - the difference from youth and old age with all the regrets encumbered along the way. So beautiful, so haunting. I'm 72 and feel all those emotions. It was Trevor's song, had some regrets that he let Johnny do this. When he saw the video he changed his mind and said, "It's Johnny's song now". Johnny changed one word only.

Btw it's Trent Reznor not Trevor

his wife died before him, he gave up he couldnt live without his wife, they never left eachothers side, and used this song to say goodbye, he just wanted to be with his wife, and went on his own terms, he didnt die of diabetes, Johnny died of a broken heart! God speed Johnny Cash, you did it right, we got your message.

This was heart wrenching. Especially since Johnny had addictions issues too so he really understood the original song.

The part that always gets me is at the end, when he closes the piano. There's just something haunting about the way he closes it and just sits there. Just such an amazing song all around.

Trent Reznor has said that this song belongs to Cash. This version absolutely beautiful and is seen as the best version of the song by many people. I do like that the original version and Cash's versions take on two different meanings though, great way to cover a song and make it your own

Rollingstone had an article years ago titled something like ' the most self destructive artists of all time' Johnny Cash was high up on the list. multiple arrests, alcoholism, drug use. womanizing in his younger years. He illustrates that pain in this video. you can definitely feel it. He never recorded another song or did another video. I understand after closing that piano at the end he never opened it again. This really was the end.

But in the end he gave his life to God, and all that was washed away...

Johnny Cash lived these lyrics. He had his own demons as much as any rock and roll musician ever. He made this song his own from the original by Nine Inch Nails. When his kids saw that video they said it sounds like you are saying goodbye and he said I am.

Johnny was a Rock Star before rock and roll.

Mr.Cash had more Rock n roll in his little finger than 99% of any “metal head” etc…he was as real as it gets …and AWESOME man of Jesus

Jonny’s last gift to us, it tells his life so sadly. It is said that when Trent saw this video, he cried, when Nine inch Nails, heard it, they said “it’s no longer our song, it’s Jonny’s!

The part with June Carter Cash in it was a happy accident. She just came downstairs while they were filming to check on Johnny and the producer liked it and kept it in the video.

Johnny Cash was the MAN.

It’s an amazing song that connects with so many people because we have all experienced heartache and loss and pain and regret. Man Johnny can make you feel it. I’m a grown ass man and I cry every time I see this. You can have my empire of dirt. It’s just stuff at the end of the day and it does nothing. When you get to where Johnny was during this all that stuff means nothing, only the relationships with you, God, yourself, your friends and your family are important. RIP Johnny Cash the Man in Black

Cash is the country music loophole for metal heads.

Dolly was inducted to the rock and roll hall of fame just last year. She even wrote a rock song just for the occasion.

For a look behind the scenes here, look up on here Hurt Behind The Scene. I heard he was in pretty good spirits during the recording but he knew anyway, knew this was his goodbye, his wife June wasn't supposed to be in this but out of concern, she came downstairs to check on him and that look of concern on her face on the stairs was genuine. Cash lived 100 lifetimes of regret and sorrow and it showed on his face and yet he overcame it all and in the end achieved total redemption. The video was shot in bitterly cold weather in Nashville in February 2003. Three months later, June Carter Cash, the musician's wife of 35 years, died. Johnny Cash himself died on 12 September 2003, I think he just didn't want to be alone anymore, I saw the 2 of them live June 1980, they did a set in NJ at some kind of festival concert and I walked an hour to the stadium and made sure I got close, about 30-40 feet away I think and there he was, the legend, the man in black with his wife and his band, The Great Eighties /8, I remember being just awestruck and feeling Holy Crap, It's him. Just a highlight of my entire life.

I grew up on a radio station 97.1 with Delilah. I heard this song so long ago. I was still a kid. Used to listen to all those old songs . I'm 36 now. And I have lost names of all those beautiful songs now. All I know now is Johnny cash and someone named Fleetwood Mac

Hi Souls, Animal calls this ‘Country music’. Is this really Country? His newly amazing arrangement, voice and tone makes it ‘his Requiem’ and in the Netherlands we call it probably ‘levenslied’, song of life. Incredible lyrics turned in a amazing song

Everyone that sees this video & hears the words, can't help but be touched.❤️ for this to be the very last song,, you just know he was saying goodbye

Although he was only 71 when this video was shot, he looks to be 100. It was released in February 2003, 3 months later his wife June died, and Johnny died in September. He told his daughter this was good by. This video is the #1 watched music video in history. Even the original writer and performer of the song said it no longer belongs to him. It's Johnny Cash's. This %was Johnny's last big contribution to the music world and it was 100% first class.

What’s so special about Johnny Cash is that it doesn’t matter what genre of music you love the most because everyone loves Johnny Cash. He went through a failed marriage, drug abuse issues and criminal charges and he came through the other side. He wore black to honor the poor and the downtrodden and the least of us. He was against the Vietnam War. He performed in prisons because he understood those people weren’t animals. They were human beings that were paying for their crimes like he did. And while I’m an atheist JC was a devout Christian who used his faith to reach people instead of passing judgment and hating people. This is the final gift JC left for us and I cannot think of a more precious gift. I’m new to your channel and subbed. I look forward to more of y’alls content!

Yep this is JC song now, and it "Hurts" to watch him sing it. Thank you ya'll for watching this. Have an awesome weekend, enjoy to the max! Subscribed long time ago but liked this reaction as requested! Need a "love" button!

This has to be the greatest swan song to cap off a legendary career ever

I love the oldiest Dolly, Lorretta, Johnny, so many of that era.

I first heard Johnny as a kid in the sixties with my parents. I heard NIN’s version but when Johnny did it made me reflect on my own life now.

This song always makes me cry it's such a great cover. BTW thank you for not being another one of those annoying reaction channels that pauses the video every ten seconds to talk. Just enjoy the music!

In one interview Trent Reznor said he was mad at first to hear that Johnny Cash was going to record his best song. But after hearing the song, he was not so upset but once Trent saw the video, he said I wrote a good song, John Cash just made it a great song. I have to agree, I loved the original Nine Inch Nails version, but Johnny's version takes it beyond great, he made it immortal.

It’s really interesting that I connected to this song so deeply as a teen and young adult who lost friends to the opioid epidemic. Now, as a woman creeping up on 50, I relate to this song in another way in looking back on the life I’ve led so far and the shorter time ahead.

God Bless 2ndhandsouls music, the United States of America, and the Man in Black, Johnny Cash!!!

Masterful, comes to mind. American masterpeice. Biographical. A humble, powerful warning to anyone who is has not reached to the zenith of success that Johnny Cash has reached.

Fantastic, Song, his best Deep, emotional to the bone

How I love these reactions of yours! So much to say regarding this song and this brilliant rendition...This song carries a payload of a psalm.

Have a listen to Johnny Cash singing “Man in White”.

The craziest collab is Tammy Wynette singing with KLF, which is a CRAZY electronic hip hop group...but it works!

what a way to go out with this great video.

You? Didn't know Johnny Cash played piano..... Johnny cash was A musician and a musician plays musical instruments.... All of them

June died after they created the video but before it was released and Johnny died a few months after June died. I read he watched the video with one of his daughters and she said it sounded like he was saying goodbye, and johnny said that was true, he was saying goodbye.

In the San Quentin show, he made a joke about a briefcase backstage with "all the songs he stole in it". He only took other people's songs and redid them bettrr.

I'll need to get this album,the original singer said this is John song now♥️

Butiyful song ❤

It took 3times before he agreed to do it.

Great reaction video. Saw a comment on another reaction to this elsewhere that said (paraphrasing a bit) the difference to this and the NIN version is that Trent sings like hes angry and annoyed about his demons whereas Johnny has made peace with his. Something different you have a look at is Paolo Nutini - Iron Sky (Live at Abbey Road Studio). That and the Hurt video are among the very few songs I never tire of watching and revisit frequently as both have massive meaning to me

Dolly Parton did do a pretty amazing cover of Shine by Collective Soul

The most powerful imagery in the video as well as Cash’s most intense emotions come with the images of Jesus, who he sang about often throughout his career. Grimacing while Jesus is being nailed to the cross knowing that his own sins were some of those that Christ died for along with all those who repentant believe. Johnny believed and believes even more fully now the true saying that “Only one life, it will soon be passed, only what’s done for Christ will last.” Thanks for the reaction.

About addiction and the pain it caused. Strangely the House of Cash a week later burned down . His wife died the week before he did.

❤😊

Animal sang through the entire song.

Johnny, and I( I think) Elvis, are th only 2 Artist, 2 be induced, N2, The Country Music, (and)Rock&Roll Hall Of fame😎😎👍👍

May I suggest "Seven Nation Army", by Postmodern Jukebox.

try johnny cash singing "the man in black"

lemmy and ozzy????? ima searchin' that right now! thanks! i don't recollect that one, but...... thanks again .

When his daughter heard this song she said "Dad it sounds like you were saying goodbye" "I am he said.

Great reaction, honoring The Man in Black and a great song. Theres another you guys should check out, a cover of Metallica's Nothing Else Matters by a acapella group called Voiceplay. It is amazing. Thanks again!

You in the middle. (I'm sorry, not a subscriber, don't know your names) You stopped singing, and just felt what he sang. Thank you for that.
