    JC is the Man. He is the master story teller. I loved him at the time I started listening to music as a youngin' with classics like Orange Blossom Special, A Boy Named Sue, and Don't Take Your Guns to Town. I still love his music today. Although I am not a deeply religious person, I have really been digging on his gospel stuff lately. Hell, we even share the same birthday!!! Long Live CASH.

    Johnny Cash always follewed his own heart when it came to his music .
    Did what he thought was right and sometimes paid a heavy price for it with the music companies and Nashvile . he was a working man , man

    Great song, great video.

    When Cash died, they had a number of interviews in Rolling Stone, and the director of the video, Mark Romanek, had a story I thought was interesting.
    At the end of the shoot, the director was going for a dramatic statement so he told Cash the shoot was about done. He asked him to sit at the end of the table and do anything he wanted...sweep everything to the ground, smash the plates, tip the table...whatever. You can see the moment at the 2:54 point. Johnny simply picked up a wine glass and slowly poured it out.
    I don't know why, but the story stuck with me...

    A great song and a uniquegreat performer. I have several of his albums and compilation discs of his.

    If you never heard too much of his stuff, go back to youtube and check out the older stuff of his, live shows, etc. His prison concerts will really make you think.
