I like the song even more now that I've seen the video, I always liked the man in black, "unchained" is one of my all time favorite albums.

On the most recent album (American IV) though he's sounding a bit tired on some of the tracks, then again on other tracks he sounds as good as he ever did. I guess the album is a bit hit or miss but I've only listend thru twice at this point....

If someone can't hear it, too bad for them.
I agree. I don't know that I like Cash's version better, but I can certainly hear the anguish and pain more in his version. Much more poingant. But, I do wish he had left the lyrics alone and been a bit more daring with the music itself.

Maybe Trent and Johnny can team up and we can have Cash's vocals and Reznor's musical cacophony. That would be amazing.
