    The impact of having June in the video, with her passing not long after, puts an even stronger emotional feeling. This song is Cash.

      Johnny Cash definitely had a storied career.... and was a legendary character. His use of Hurt as a capstone of his work is such an excellent and powerful selection by Cash that I can't help but imagine that he searched for something that would serve as an appropriate penultimate conclusion of his career and life - and he definitely found it IMHO.

    Everyone discusses Johnny's interpretation, his voice, in this cover, for obvious reasons. I heard the song long before I saw the video and I can tell you, the video adds almost all of the emotion to the song. Having known the song from NIN, I knew it was about a man spiraling out of control into addiction, and without the video for context, you just assume Cash is singing about the same thing. The song already had a meaning. It was the video that changed everything and turned it into a eulogy for himself. It's heartbreaking, but the video makers are never credited for the genius they added to the experience.

    • @markblalock6579
      @markblalock6579 Před rokem +9

      Good comment. Johnny was singing more in reflection of having gone through the addiction and the problems it caused within his relationships and life. Now too late to change any of it. I believe we, the listener, interpret it as a eulogy of sorts. Maybe it is, but I regard it as the same meaning, just from a different point in time

      @@markblalock6579 I agree. I actually think most of the video (overwhelming religious symbols/images, rotting fish, etc.) actually detracts from the song/lyrics. But, the ending with him closing the piano and then caressing the wood is a tremendous achievement.

      Trent Reznor first heard the cover. He describee his initial reaction with: "Hearing it was like someone kissing your girlfriend. It felt invasive."
      He described his reaction to the video he saw later with :
      "I wasn’t prepared for what I saw, and it really then, wasn’t my song anymore.”

    This song was originally written & performed by "Nine Inch Nails". It was written about drugs & depression. But Johnny Cash's version is considered the best. His version is more about regret for past mistakes in life & realizing material things & fame mean nothing in the end. When the video was filmed in February 2003, Cash was 71 years old & had serious health problems. His frailty is clearly evident in the video. He died seven months later, on September 12 & his wife, June Carter Cash, who is shown gazing at her husband in two sequences of the video, had died on May 15 of the same year.

    If you don't feel a little emotional at this I might not believe you're human. It's such a powerful performance. One of the things that's always been so interesting to me is how this and the original are almost like two different songs, but still so similar. The original NIN version is a young mans perspective, expressing all that passionate anger at a fresh wound, and Johnny's version is the measured acceptance of an old man reflecting on past mistakes. They could be bookends on the story of the life of the same man.

  • @scottfrederick7277
    @scottfrederick7277 Před rokem +17

    The most powerful thing in this song is in the end of the video when he closes the piano and creases it with his hands. To me it was his way of saying goodbye. I thing a lot of people miss this aspect of the video. Also everyone I know that has listened to this song has said they actual had tears running down their face. One of the most powerful songs that I've ever heard.

  • @andreaislandgirl720
    @andreaislandgirl720 Před rokem +26

    The song's lyrics already tell a beautiful and sad story, but Johnny takes it to another level. The emotion he brings to his performance is almost overwhelming at times, without being overdone or dramatic. His version hits hard as we watch a man at the end of his years reflecting on his life, and how he would have done things differently if he could. Heartbreaking and beautiful.

    • @andraskovacs8959
      @andraskovacs8959 Před rokem +1

      Well, except that the original song and the lyrics are neither beautiful, nor sad. Rather desperate and anguished. I agree with @lucasholtgreven3359, it's the video that adds those emotions, and makes the whole song sad and nostalgic.

    I thought I would never listen to country music or any country artist. But one day I bought a comp CD of Johnny Cash songs, and… he opened that door for me. Johnny’s considered a major “crossover” artist, because he appeals to fans of a wide range of genres. There are people in the rock, metal, Goth, punk, country and more communities and cultures who love his songs. And to end one’s career… and even life… on such a powerful, emotional and incredible note, is always going to be amazing.

    • @michaelb1761
      @michaelb1761 Před rokem +1

      Me too. I was so dissappointed in myself for not listening to him until just after he died. He wasn't special in any technical measure, but he somehow made you feel the emotion of a song through his voice more deeply than any other singer that I can think of. He could make you cry, laugh, or smile with joy, whatever was called for in a song.

    @bjspeck4337 Před rokem +7

    I heard this first a year ago, the reactor/analyst was someone that knew Johnny Cash so she had a lot of insight. By the time, she finished, I felt a kinship with him. The song seemed like Trent had written it just for him and by extension, all of us that are nearing his age, lost our loved ones to death, knowing we are now the frontline troops. His wife died just two months after this was completed and Johnny himself, a few months after her. His daughter, after seeing the video, said to him, "It sounds like you are saying goodbye." "I am." he said. When he closed the piano in this, it was the last time he played it. It truly is a masterpiece because the truth is all over it. 6 years ago, I lost my husband of 48 years, the love of my life, to cancer. I'm in good health but for quite a while, I didn't want to live without him. I'm just coming out of that now, hybridizing new daylilies and those that are worthy of registration will go down to the cancer center and let the patients name them. I'll register them and let them have a start or 2 of the plants they name. I have found new things to do which brings a peace within. This song by Johnny Cash was part of my change. Thanks to both Trent and Johnny. I do enjoy your reactions, you have a slightly different perspective and I will keep my eyes open for your next one. VoicePlay has just dropped a magnificent version of a Metallica song "Nothing Else Matters". I would like to know what you think of it!

  • @jeffmalloy8200
    @jeffmalloy8200 Před rokem +7

    I think your reaction was very respectful and insiteful. My take on this version is that Johnny Cash is looking back on his life and realizing that all the accolades and the awards and everything related to "success" and money and all the material possessions is fleeting at best and what really counts, or at least should count, are the relationships with the people in our lives. And even those go away with time. In his seventies my father told me that I would find out that it wasn't the things I did in life I would regret but the things I didn't do. I got it, but it really didn't hit home until after his passing and I realized I had forever lost the opportunity to spend as much time with him as I should have due to my busy life and the pursuit of a career. I think Johnny's poignant message in this song is similar to my dad's message.

    Funny that it takes a NIN song for people to realize what a great musician Johnny was. I have listened to him since the early seventies, when I was about 7 y.o. So many people commenting on him now gives me a feeling like someone is trying to take something away from me. Your analysis is different. It is professional and I enjoyed listening to you and understand what all it takes to make a great song. Thank you for not squeezing tears. I know you were moved though. Lots of love from Germany.

    What I like best about this cover, even though he went acoustic with it, he maintained the dissonant chords from the original. I don't think most people who would cover this song would have made that choice. But it really keeps you on edge through the whole song. It exposes a nerve so the song just hits harder. It was brilliant in the original, but with the added authenticity of this version, it's much more impactful here.

    This song deepend when you know about Johnny Cash's struggles with alcohol and drug addictions in his earlier. I had a struggle with alcohol for over a decade and am now 20 years sober. But the phrase try to kill it all away, but I remember everything, stands out to my the most. Because itnis exactly the cycle. You cause pain to everyone around you, you are but the alcohol is only temporary. You hurt those who love you, you hang with those caught in the same addiction, but your memories only deepen. When you finally hit bottom and becaome sober you can see the damage you done. Only those who truly love you are still around. Your drinking buddies disappear your old friends have moved on, you remember all the pain you caused. You try not to get close you dont want to hurt anyone else. This song perfectly embodies what i feel at times and my hurt.

  • @toddabbott781

    The history behind this video and the making of it was just tragic. This was the last video he ever recorded before he died. You could see how weak he was with his hands shaking. He was only able to play small parts himself for the video. He wife had encouraged him to keep singing because his music was his life. She was in much better health and was expected to live beyond his years, but tragically she died shortly after this video was shot (and I think before it was released). He lasted only about 6 months more before he passed away. The clips of his museum were as the film producer say them. Those record awards were smashed on the floor when they got there. There was also a bit of tension between him and his kids and he did struggle with drugs.
    This song was written and first preformed my Trent Reisner of Nine Inch Nails (NIN) off Downward Spiral. Hurt was really the only song I liked off of the album, but I did not care for the distortion and long lead in. He did a liver performance in 2010 that is his BEST version of the song. When asked if he could cover the song he said fine, but did not think Johnny Cash could pull it off. After he heard the cover he said he was impressed.
    The video was a masterpiece too. That picture on the lady was his mother who he cared for deeply but had passed away many years earlier and likely contributed to his drug problems. He had also been married before with I think 4 kids, but by the sound if it had little to do with them. In his older years his son ran his estate. The symbolism of the grand decadent meal and him pouring the wine over it with his shaking hands is so strong.

Shortly after both him and June were gone, his home caught fire, and everything you see in the video was lost.

I used to listen to the original version so much in my childhood during times of uncertainty, and it's interesting to see that the great Johnny Cash fit this song into his life during his last year on this earth.

    A very special song/cover and a great choice imo. Grabbed me deep inside; emotional and along with the imagery a painful, honest but not at all "whiny" way to face up to his life quite shortly before "taking the last bow". If it's true that music can help to cope with grief, pain, regret and loneliness, then this performance is a brave example 👏🎼🌈 Bye bye Johnny 🙏

    I love you review. Johnny Cash is one of my favorites. He passed away not long after he made this.

    I rewatch the Hurt video all the time, recommend (with warning to bring tissue) to people, and enjoy watching reaction videos for it (as long as they themselves are open and honest)
    It is amazing how many reactors who talk a lot through thier videos just shut down and listen to Johnny speak to their souls. Almost every one has "needed a moment".
    Your reaction was very enjoyable as I learned things while watching someone new discover the power of a Grand Master story musician weave his spell. Gawd, I'm glad I got to hear him, and I hope he found true peace from pointless regret.
    Thanks for your great reaction

    Hola Anna, muy buena reacción y sobre todo los detalles que explicas, es muy conmovedor todo, el video, la canción como es interpretada, al final el cierra el piano y es como una despedida, porque poco después el fallece. Gracias Anna, hermoso tú trabajo.

    I thought you touched on everything important in this video. I rarely feel as much of an emotional impact as I get from this song. Really long careers are only achieved by the greatest singers as most find themselves less relevant to younger generations after youthful beauty and charisma are gone. Then here we have Johnny with such a masterful performance in the last year of his natural life that I believe has touched everybody young and old.

    Anna, you may want to listen to the album this song came from, American 4, which was part of a series of albums he put together with great effort and determination in the last years of his life. It’s as if he knew how important it would be to share his message for posterity before he left us for the last time.

    Anna, loved your music reaction, going back and forth between English and Finnish was really cool! My grandfather was from Finland and he died when I was really young so I barely remember him and I always wished I had learned about Finland. For some reason I've always been proud of being of Finnish heritage even though I couldn't explain to you why? I just always felt deep down that they are a very strong and resilient people. I've always been able to handle extreme cold weather.😊
    In the early 2000's I had read about this Johnny Cash recording of this song and to be honest, I thought it was a joke. Johnny Cash was like a hero to me, growing up and I thought it was like some kind of goofy ploy to get back in the limelight or something. Sometime later I saw the video come on MTV and I turned it of immediately.
    I finally watched it for the first time when I came across your video and I have to admit that I cried like a baby. I'm also ashamed of how I first felt about this song when I first heard about it.
    Awhile ago I saw a interview with his daughter, Rosanna Cash talking about when he was invited to perform at the music festival in Glastonbury, Scotland and how she talked him out of going because she was afraid that the people there wouldn't get him or his music and was worried he'd make a fool out of himself. What a mistake! It might of been his finest hour!
    If you ever get around to it, check out "End Of The Road"' by Home free. They are amazing!

    Just love your unique style and interpretation. Your analysis is so good. Your appreciation of his performance is evident. Finally I am fascinated and impressed how you switch so effortlessly from Finnish to English without losing your superb technical interpretation of the great man’s performance. 💖

    Thank you for your engagement with this song, the singer, and the fans who have really been touched. I loved your take, your honest reaction, and your understanding of how unvarnished this was. It has a lot of other meanings for many, but I am always interested to hear how others hear things (for the first time, and from a different perspective).
