   I heard the Cash …
   I heard the Cash version- then I looked up the original. Not so perfect – not a audiovisual complete artwork. I did not like it so much- just a piano playing man who writes good music and has a bad soundmixer, I thought. Now this vid brings it all together and now it is a beautiful story of sharing and improving. Beautiful .

   Just as Dylan …
   Just as Dylan passed All Along the Watchtower over to Hendrix, Reznor hands this Beautiful song to Johnny Cash.. Trent was, as I was growing up, and in some ways still is, one of my favourite artists – but this song is now, and always will be, Cash’s….

   This song got me …
   This song got me into both Johnny Cash and Nine Inch Nails. I can see the relation, but Trent and Johnny are amazing artist.

   I dunno i luv both but the NIN version is more fun to play

   Impressive video. …
   Impressive video. I love Johnny Cash… I have never been a NIN fan, but was moved by what Trent had to say. It goes to show what a generous heart he has to acknowledge the success of J.R.’s interpretation of the song. Thanks for writing such a beautiful song, Trent. This seemed to encompass Cash’s life…you feel his pain.

   It is the unique …
   It is the unique old broken voice and the very simple introductory notes and chords that surpass you, Trent. It is not your fault or any inability on your part, not at all. You wrote and performed a beautiful song, but until now it is JC who has reshaped and performed it best. He took the raw diamant and cut it amazingly. Nearly 25.000.000 watchers is crazy…..

9. LouisGuidone Said,

   Both versions are …
   Both versions are incredible, and yeah Trent should be flattered. By the way, check out my cover of “The Becoming”

    Seriously, this is …
    Seriously, this is the only music video that gives me the biggest lump in my thoat. Well done Johnny, you will be the only person who can make a cover of a Trent Reznor song that is as good as the original. R.I.P

    i cant watch that video without having to fight back tears. trents right it is a very powerful work of pure art. and thats what true art does it connects and brings out those emotions of happiness or remorse or whatever it is the artist is trying to portray.

    I love both …
    I love both versions of this song, and I’m a massive MASSIVE NiN fan, and it really baffles me how cash managed to out-melancholy Trent Reznor. This piece just really strikes directly at your heart and just keeps on stabbing.

    apologies, didn’t go through the whole vid.

    should have stopped …
    should have stopped at “nice to be recognized” cash dont need your approval. but its your song, props

19. ohgimemo Said,

    nice that you came …
    nice that you came to your senses Trent. I don’t know how important it is for your fans to hear the true story of your history with Johnny Cash covering this particular song…. however, I think it more important for you to realize your mistake and to publicly make THIS statement.

20. toolfan12 Said,

    this is why music …
    this is why music is the highest of languages. the lyrics are the same but the different styles of music and the general tones give off totally different meanings and in turn you have your own personal feelings. an amazing song either way you hear it.

    It did turn me on …
    It did turn me on to J. Cash – but not onto NIN

    that’s an amazing song and Johnny Cash sang it like it was his own.

    I love when 2 totally different musicians play the same song.

    It’s awesome how two great artists can take a song and take it to two different places.
