'One of the greatest moments of my life was standing onstage next to David Bowie while he sang "Hurt" with me. I was outside of myself, thinking, "I'm standing onstage next to the most important influence I've ever had, and he's singing a song I wrote in my bedroom." It was just an awesome moment.' - Trent Reznor

and the reason he would feel that way is because David Bowie showed everyone how important they were or great of talent they had. He was a special kind of legend that made others shine without dimming his own. One of a kind there.

What I love about Hurt is that the original and the Cash version are both incredibly moving and amazing. However, they are sang as two different songs. This song embodies the angst and anguish a younger person would feel. Whereas the Cash version captures a lifetime of pain and regret. It's as if they are being song by a son and then a father back to him. Also this has David fucking Bowie in it. Rad.

I think it's amazing the sonic blend of their voices, both such TRUE musicians and amazing talents in their own right.Trents voice slicing through like a shard of broken glass, and bowie's backing vocals smoothing the edges while allowing that grit and power to really shine through. They killed it. I love the cash version (apparently an unpopular opinion, even though trent liked it too) but this version is a FIERCE rival. so glad they both exist so I don't HAVE to ever choose. someone earlier tried to say "ohhhh this is a song about a broken man....what would christian johnny cash know of any of that...not realizing that the man in black had his own struggles with drug and alcohol addiction and quite a lurid past himself, which I believe shone through in the visceral "pain" that can be felt in his version of "hurt". But whatever... I'll listen to and enjoy both while those oh so much wiser than me critique them and voice their opinions, ever the contrarian and critic. 😂

It's beautiful seeing Trent glowing like that in spite of everything he was going through at the time. I can't imagine doing a duet with my biggest influence and not having them outshine me. Bowie backed him up perfectly, the way their voices intertwined in the choruses was mesmerizing. Instead of focusing on his own performance he gave Trent's shrill, emotional vocals a strong yet understated backbone. We need more people like that.
