Okay, as I said before, while I remember listening to Johnny Cash as a kid and even have a few mp3s ripped to my iMac, it's not like I'm a huge fan. Anyway, while driving this afternoon, I was listening to the local college alternative station here.
I heard two amazing songs in a row (amazing in and of itself on radio today): the first was "Ring of Fire," a classic Cash song, covered by Social Distortion; followed immediately by the man himself covering... get this... "Hurt" by Nine Inch Nails.
It was absolutely outrageous! And both of them were excellent. Somehow it was a fitting tribute. So if you can find either of them somewhere, give them a listen.
