Trent on this performance: “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.”

A good song is complemented when other notable artists sing it with the passion that it was written with. I've not seen this version, and David Bowie is the perfect, perfect cherry on top. I have to admit, while this is an excellent song of it's own merit, seeing Johnny Cash sing it the way he did - knowing his history - broke me. It's as if the song has come full circle, the way Trent intended it. It's the perfect evolution of this song: Trent as the young beginning genius artist, David as the middle-aged experienced artist, and Johnny Cash as the dying, understanding regretful artist. Each version carries it's own individual story, and yet they're all the same. By the Gods. It's Brilliant.

Cash still owed this song. Trent will forever be the originator and he grew to accept Cash's version. As a funny aside my newest "step" father a few years ago was trying to learn the Cash version. An aside, I am now 48 and he is a hypocrite Christian and 70 years old. He was mid sixties at the time. Spending my mother's money trying to make a Christian album and he intended to put this song on it. I waited until he got his "final cut" to explain who originally wrote the song and the subject matter (heroin)...lets just say he still hates me to this day. And I bring that up every Thanksgiving and X-mas...cuz I am a total ass.

Bowie had been to that low point himself, in the mid '70s. But then so had Johnny Cash. Only an addict could sing this song.

I got to meet all of NIN after that show and have a pic with Reznor and the entire band signed my Downward Spiral book. Absolutely epic show and experience for a die hard NIN fan. RIP David!!

To me, music is a painting. You have the backing, the tone, the structure... One could look at the colors on the album cover and feel the match for the songs. Then there's Bowie, who brings an entirely different palette of vibrance and inherent darkness. The choruses take a turn from this dismal spiraling despair, and replace it with a feeling of letting go and peace in a sort of death, or change. This was amazing to hear and thank you for sharing.
