Karen has a big heart, you can clearly see that. Only kind, companionate, and empathetic people get emotional from hearing of other people's hurt. You've struck gold with this woman Cliff. Protect her at all costs! It's tough to find a woman that is not only incredibly beautiful, but also has a kind and pure soul. You all make a great couple, wishing you both many many years of happiness together.

This is such a powerful rendition of this song - and even the guy who composed it said that it wasn't his song any more. Johnny Cash produced some brilliant material in his American series. You would have thought this song was written for him - but the strength and dignity he brought to this. Yes it is his wife - and they were great performing together in the past.

Reznor wrote such such a great song that it took on a whole new meaning and still hit just as hard. Trent Reznor is an underrated national treasure in his own right. Johnny Cash would be one of only very few that could do it justice.

Trents lyrics. Johnny's cadence and tone. It's amazing. People need to also recognize that Trent Reznor wrote this in a just as personal state dealing with addiction and suicidal thoughts and friends etc....was a very personal song for him that he would even berate people at concerts in the early 90s to be respectful and quiet while he performed; or he would not perform it.

Johnny did not want to cover the song. He didn't think he could do it justice the way heard it from Trent (early 90s Industrial Rock that Trent basically invented the sound). Rick Rubin convinced him by giving him a reference track of basically this; a guitar and folk singer just laying out the lyrics. Then he fell in love with it, said let's do it. We all owe Rick Rubin a thank you as well.

He recorded this about three months after his wife of over 50 years passed, then he passed about six months later. He loved miss June, and as a Johnny Cash fan, you'd could tell that as tough a old sum bitch he was, when she died, he was lost and broken, and wasn't long for this world without her. Dudes a legend.

The biggest reason this song sticks with people is because of the first impression they get seeing this video and hearing the song. You were right by not warning her because she deserves the chance to experience this masterpiece like the majority of us did when we first heard it. Johnny Cash also had his issues with addiction which is why this song was perfect for him to cover. Trent's version = young man struggling with addiction. Johnny's version = that same man at the end of his life realizing that everything that happened is what made him who he was, thus the words "I would keep myself, I would find a way".

Don't worry Karen. As a long time Johnny Cash fan since I was a kid in the 80's, this song punched deep because I knew it was his farewell song. The life he led was tumultuous at times, and then he found peace. Here, he lays his final demons to rest. Though the song was written by the lead singer for NIN, they admit that this is no longer their song. It is Johnny's.

It's a beautiful video and he definitely took Trent Reznor's lyrics as his own for sure. Since Kris Kristofferson passed, only Willie Nelson is left of the Highway Men :( Roseanne Cash is Johnny and June Carter Cash's only child, she said when he was filming this she asked "daddy why does it sound like you're saying goodbye" . . . .but he had a great life, he helped the downtrodden, the outcasted, and prison inmates. His song *The Man In Black* actually explains why he always wore it. Are you ever ready though? I've seen the video a lot, and I get choked up every time.. If you're in any way empathic, songs like these will hit a little harder. #KarenNeedsToComeBack a fresh perspective is always awesome.
