Johnny Cash had an unique voice; not just when he sang, but also when he was
just talking - he will always be missed.
He’s so right-taking that first step, walking into that first meeting, is so freaking hard. I remember mine: I walked back and forth in front of that door probably a dozen times. Finally, I put thought out of my head, grabbed the handle, walked in and sat down. 5 minutes later, I knew I was where I needed to be. It doesn’t have to be a big clinic. It can be the YMCA or the corner church. Just take that first step. I was the sorriest drunk out there, beyond hope, I thought, but here I am 7 years later still sober. You can make it, too…
Great comment and effort
How do you learn to tolerate sobriety? To me there’s no feeling more disgusting than sobriety.
You have to face whatever it is you are running from. Face what you fear, face the pain and connect with who you were before all that stuff got a hold of you. We all started out as innocent, curious and lifeloving creatures. If you can connect with that beautiful little kid you once were, you got it.
I bet you didn't hate being sober when you were a kid!
This is what it was like for me anyway. Hope this helps. Take care stranger ♥️
Congratulations on your success !
Try rehab. Even more difficult.
Plain and simple the greatest country artist of all time.
This man was tough, sensitive, polished, raw,
funny, serious, wise, foolish, simple and a superstar. He hung with Kings and yet was a man of the people. He loved his country but recognized its wrongs. Take all that away and you still have one hell of an entertainer.
There will be no other Man in Black
Great summary!
This is greater than almost everything on tv in 2022
You're right, I used to think the 80's sucked, but I look around now and think that was the good old days!
Johnny Cash was ahead of his time and will always be a legend!
Goodmorning ! Fijne dag toegewenst ! Groetjes aan iederéén van de muziek ( mooi op tijd 👋)❤🇳🇱( R.I.P Onvergetelijk 🙏Jaar 2022.Tijd 05:02 Donderdag 6 Okt
Hearing the story of him crawling in that cave, at a time when I was desperately searching for pills, crying, sick as a dog…..it changed my life. Took me a while after to get clean but I’ve been clean for 7 years now. No opiates nothing. God bless him.
7 years well done brother. Nearly 3 years benzo and meth free for me. And still trying to kick the booze and cannabis but it feels like all I have left now. Hope you're doing well bud
@@alerionhawke5398same here I've been clean from benzos for almost a month now after 4-5 years of abuse. Weed and alcohol every now and then it's OK imo
Hope you guys are doing great
I could listen to Johnny talk all day. He is sorely missed
What a great interview. I'm 52 and just started too understand and respect this man. Not for his fame and great body of work, But for being a real,honest, good person who has as many flaws as you or I. A treasure has been lost.
Great man…great man
The treasure has not been lost. Cash lived a long, full life - and his music and message live on in the hearts of millions. Don't be sad that his time on Earth ended, be grateful we still get to enjoy him.
I've admired cash my for my 57 years. He wasn't perfect but he was honest to a fault. He was a national treasure ❤.
Johny Cash will never die.....he will always live on in our hearts and minds....bless his honesty and truth....x
I had the pleasure of meeting Johnny Cash in Aurora Illinois 1980, A good friend of mine met him in a airport and got talking to him waiting for a flight and come to find out he was on his way to our hometown Aurora to do a show at the Paramount theater, we watched the show from back stage and met and talked to Johnny and June for awhile after the show, it was great, Johnny seemed 10 feet tall to me and humble and down to earth, said he was tired and looked forward to a good quality hotel bed to turn in and get some sleep, I’ll never forget that day.
Wow😳😳❤️That's a true blessing to meet Johnny and June Cash🙏😇
My parents saw him in Toronto Airport, unfortunately at the time they were to star struck to approach him. My mam said the same he was like a giant and june was teeny tiny
He never pretended to be anything he wasn't. He was a great man and a great singer. I'll always love Johnny Cash.
If you need good advice, listen to Johnny Cash.
And Boy did he love and worship his wife..........................
didn't he pretend to be native american?
@@JeffSayYes No, while John once believed that he may have had Cherokee Native American roots, he later discovered that he had no documented Native American ancestry.
I knew a guy who pretended to be Johnny Cash when he was drunk. He would get up on a stage, take the mic and say Well.....
No doubt this is one of the greatest interviews ever. The honesty, intelligence and maturity is so impressive. WOW!
And the host is wise enough to just relax and let the guest tell their story. We don't see that much anymore.
it's crazy watching this. the reporter talks like it's the 80's, but johnny talks like it's present day.
Maybe it's best Johnny isn't here to see what's happened to his beloved America. I'm sure it would have saddened him greatly.
His voice was sublime
So glad i ran across this interveiw,,!! Was very rewarding to see Johnny talk so calmly about his life experiences,,!!
I highly recommend any interviews that Bob Costas conducted on "Later"
@@ClevelandLiveMusic Totally agree. It was a great show.
I could listen to Johnny Cash talk forever. His absence is felt.
I still believe that many of Johnny's problems began in his early childhood. Never in his entire life did his father ever tell him that he loved him or ever showed him any respect. Johnny became the dad that his father wasn't.
And if that’s not the best lesson, I don’t know what is.
I too had bad parenting but instead of making me mean, it made me determined if ever I had children, I would try to be a better parent.
Yes. He was raised being told the wrong son died. Now imagine being a kid, seeing your brother die in a bed with most of his stomach sawed through as your dad who you needed for love and support say why wasn't it you, the wrong son is dying, should've been you. Idc who you are or how tough you are when a parent says this to you daily through trauma, it takes a toll. And everyone was pushed to perform. More more more. Just like Cobain. More music more money, no rest no time off, make music, sing. So take some uppers and go go go.
So because his dad didn’t say some words he wasn’t a good father? That’s bullshit. A lot of fathers have trouble expressing themselves verbally but they show you they love Wich is more important than 3 words
@@kitjasabsgabs1830 wrong son died?😂 dude that never happened thats from the Dewey Cox story 😂 that was a parody of the Johnny cash movie.. 😂😂😂
@@TheSands83 Johnny's father told him "the wrong son died." That's showing love, how?
Pills and alcohol will take down the strongest mind. Can even get johnny cash! Alcohol has ruined a couple of my family members as well- the biggest lesson is seeing them cause fights or awkward situations and knowing you don't want to be that guy
I wanna send u love my friend. God bless you. Pls.stay safe.
He had that deep voice that we all could just sit and just listen for hours. Loved his music.
When Johnny got arrested in Starkville, Mississippi, it was due to the fact that he picked flowers from a yard that belonged to an extremely paranoid old lady. She looked out the window, saw Johnny, panicked, and called the cops. He spent the night in jail yelling, "Don't you know who I am? I'm Johnny Cash!" He paid a small fine the next morning and that was that. The song is pretty good, actually.
There’s a plaque there now next to a Family dollar and only a couple blocks from the Oktibbeha County Jail
It’s a joy just listening to his voice speaking. He was one of those one and onlys of the 21st century.
What an awesome interview. Guy passed 15yrs later in 03
I can SO relate to Johnny Cash as a door-to-door salesman (for me, it was cutlery). I couldn't bring myself to sell something to somebody who didn't need it and couldn't afford it.
**R.I.P., Johnny Cash.**
Cutco knives, huh? Lol
Never thought of that.
I dislike salesmen turning up. But one time an ex prisoner turned up & something about him made me want to help. So I bought pretty much all he had, then gave him half the stock as a gift. I used all the cleaning materials he sold to me & always thought of him, hoping he’d done ok.
I was never a great judge of character, but I’ve always tried to be decent to others. Right to the moment they get into my face. Then, no favours. On your way, son.
@@jfoote2005 Hah,hah ... that sounds like the Voice of Experience 😅
@@jfoote2005 I almost did took a job with Cutco, but they wanted me to buy the knives first, and I was like hells naw
Saw johnny and family on stage in glasgow,fantastic live show.thank you johnny for sharing your gift and talent with us..r.i.p
Johnny was only 56 years old here! Hard living ain’t no joke
He looks Great
Great interview by just asking simple questions and just letting Johnny talk. Good job Bob!
A real man ! My God how times have changed.
I saw Johnny Cash... at Jefferson Memorial '76 !
My dad loved Johnny Cash so much❤When my dad died we only played Johnny's songs at his funeral❤ It was very touching. Whenever I listen to Johnny, i think of my dad...❤❤❤❤
i have always adored johnny, hard working proud man, true and honest to himself, and not afraid to tell his story, he is missed.
Open and honest well done respect
Getting Sober was one of the best Decisions I've ever made🙏❤️✌️
Great show! I'm so glad I watched it. Thanks very much.
thank you for watching and commenting...Costas does a great job on most interviews
6:00 That's some confidence
This is absolutely fantastic
"Cash is king. The greatest of the greats. Johnny was like the Northern Star...you could guide your ship by his light." B. Dylan on JC's passing. As usual, Bob was right on the money. Will never be another Johnny Cash.
Johnny Cash was a great country singer,and a great man and yeah a great inspiration for people with substance abuse problems cause he was living example that you can get clean and sober and prosper if you are willing to accept the help of others who know what you're going through and want to help you get your life back together again and will help you learn how to live life on life's terms, and I'll not finish the rest of that saying
And just so you know, I've been sober for 17 years now and with the help of my Higher Power I'll live for a while past my birthday this coming Friday, July 15th, 2022and I'm thinking that I'm gonna plan to go ahead and live one 1⃣ day at a time and hope I wake up the next morning and walk around a bit just to show myself and whoever might be around that I can, and with that I'm going to back out of here saying bye 👋 for now and I hope to see and hear from you all real soon, bye 👋 yall
@@jeffyoder8105 Good for you & hoping you keep on the right path for you. 🤗
Škoda,že takovou pomoc a podporu nezískal i Elvis Presley.
Amen brother 👑
Jhonny Cash é maravilhoso 👏😍
Very deep soul #JohnnyCash ...empath (walking poet) my impression 🗣
Great upload. Thanks for sharing.
I remember seeing this interview on TV when it first aired. Great interview!. It was nice to see it again. Thanks for posting it on CZcams.
He is still a,presence.
He wasn't a country star..he was a folk hero.
What an iconic voice!! Thank you for posting this.
He has my attention, each and every word.,
Later with Bob Costas was a very underrated program.
A superb interviewer in my book
Thank you for posting
Best most honest interview’s ever!!!👍
Handsome man,the best voice for ever😊😍🤗😘👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
One OF THE GREATEST Ever Love Him You RIH Beautiful Angel You 😇 ❤ Are Love And Miss
I love to listen to Johnny talk. He was an honest man. He admitted to the bad. As famous as he is, he was very humble and never forgotten where he came from. Can learn a very lot from this great man!
JC - singer, philosopher, fighter, legend.
Johnny Cash was a great Godly man above all else....
Yes, I think you can tell.
RIP to the Man in Black. I was born in 1999, Johnny died when I was just a baby but I feel like I know him. I feel a spiritual connection to Mr. Cash. I know he’s playing his guitar right now upstairs.
This interview should be a model for what this country should strive for: To provide help for so many people who are suffering. I know one of them very dearly.
You see, Johnny could afford this. And I don't think I have to say anything else you all can put it together for yourselves you're smart people.
They couldn't get anyone better than Bob Costas?
Cash is wonderful, but I’m impressed to see Costas as an interviewer outside of sports, and I wish he would do more of that.
Excellent interview
"It wasn't public nudity, I was way out in the woods." 🤣
Quite eye opening for us thanks 🙏
I enjoyed this
Love and Light,Johnny Cash and June Carter what a love story.
Under Webster's definition of humble should be: see Johnny Cash the man in black! What a wonderful human being!
A great and honorable man.
Johnny Cash is a true American treasure. He was a man of great talent and humility.
PRECIOUS !
Johnny Cash is my all time favorite musician and character.
Beautiful interview. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Just celebrated one year 🎂
One Day at a Time ❤️🙏🏻
That's like The Sam Turek Sound, we would visit the Cuba Memorial Hospital so he could play his accordion for the Elders. 🤔
This is the coolest dude who ever lived. God, what I would give to have been able to shake this man’s hand. I’m 28 years old. I don’t know how to thank my dad.
I would say Ceasar, you were the best Joker....and thanks for turning me onto Johnny Cash
RIP Mr. Cash you are definitely missed
Very open and honest man.
Johnny Cash = My Dad. Because my Dad was big and played in a Country band and he always sang Johnny Cash's songs. In my mind and heart, there is no separation. Of course my Dad only drank here and there, mostly sober. He tried weed, but never took other drugs.
The joke "a Sioux named boy" almost got lost. Lovely play of words using the title of the song.
Johnny Cash, despite all the adulation he received, was a humble and very likeable man with a mesmerising voice and a gentle sense of self-deprecating humour. He conquered his demons, fortunately. After so many years, still appreciated and valued.
Man, Johnny just seemed like a superstar that would be just as down-home in your living room as on t.v. Just seemed down to earth as any famous person.
Thumbs up for two great pros--John and Bob!
I love Johnny Cash
Johnny was one of a kind
Great, great interview. Silverstein lived in Marin, where San Q. is located. My roommate worked in Graham
Nash's S.F. house which was rented out as Bed & Breakfast before Danny Glover bought it & lost it in divorce.
Saw Roseanne a couple of times. The Louis Armstrong duet w/Johnny is must viewing.
Interview starts at 0:55
Wow, what a riveting encyclopedia salesman story Bob...
I watched it and came away with a different point of view.
I've taken everything, lost a lot. Winning now!
Rest in peace Dad i love u and miss you
Dad?
@@ClevelandLiveMusic in lreland....Dad is short for Daddy or father
@@ClevelandLiveMusic and it is affectionate version of Daddy or Father
Destroyed all humanity??? I'd nominate you for an Oscar because that's some classic drama ...and comedy 😆😂😆😂
Love you bob miss you Johnny
My first time walking into a NA in my town of espanola NM, USA . It was my first time being sober after 1yrs of opiates and cocaine and benzos as well. Well I got out of rehab , in Santa Fe NM and I wanted to keep on going to meetings after rehab because they took us every weekend. So I got out and found a NA meetings in my town which has always been really bad with heroin abuse since the 60s and still is today 2022. But this first time I walked in that meeting, the 2nd day I got out of rehab and sat down and immediately saw signs of the host was still using, with hints of him inching , slurred speech and after the meeting was over , he came over to me when I was in the parking lot and asked if I needed any Xanax and I knew this NA or AA in my regions of new Mexico wasn't for me or in Albuquerque was even worse. So what I'm trying to say is , do what makes you comfortable in trying to get sober. Like If doing things to stay sober are hard such as going to AA or NA , then maybe it isn't for you. But don't give up with trying a new direction in life , because it'll eventually pay off. And it's gonna be hard . It took me 3 trys to finally stay sober . It's been since 2017 since I've last used and I had struggled with opiates and coke since 2004 and it isnt easy the 1st time but over time , you will see itll be harder and harder to keep using. And that's when you know , it's Time to give it up.
Johnny was a deputy sheriff in davidson co.tenn nashville for sheriff fate thomas!!!!!
What a legend.
I love Johnny
He was one cool dude
I wonder if there are any lawyers named Sue
Tough muthas, that’s for sure. I love that song, “He called me son & I called him pa...”
What a Rock!
Johnny! Johnny! Johnny! Elvis! Killer! Bobby!!!
In Starkville Mississippi there’s a plaque dedicated to Johnny cash, he was also pardoned and his money returned like 15 years ago
I never knew he died so quickly after the love of his life😭. Rip Johnny and June!
