First Time Hearing Johnny Cash Hurt Reaction Video - WOW, A SONG THAT COULD MAKE A GROWN MAN CRY 😢

don't be ashamed of your tears, thats the highest respect you can give to this legendary singer

Sad thing is that one of his children, Roseanne Cash asked her father, "is he saying goodbye?" Johnny replied, "yes"

Originally done by Nine Inch Nails and written by Trent Reznor, this was a metal groove. Cash adopted it and made it very sad and somber and killed it! His wife (in the video) died very shortly after this. He passed not long after, and it seems he knew he would. Reznor has since said that the song belongs to Johnny now.

Speaking as an old man in the winter of my life I can say Johnny sings the common song for us all. as we get closer to the horizon of our lives we can look back and see the times we chased after selfish dreams and fought old dragons at the expense of the goodness in other's lives, as well as our own. So many of the things we were proud of when young, now fill us with deep pain and regret. It is a song of warning to all the young to get your priorities straight early in life. Love your reaction kids - you often make me feel young again!

YES, this hit us, the fans, VERY hard the 1st time we saw it. We all knew he was telling us "goodbye". If you're wondering, the picture hanging on the wall is Johnny's mother. When his wife June died, many think Johnny died not long after from a broken heart. He missed June so much.

We all cry over this video I remember his history God bless

This was Johnny's goodbye and he admitted thst before he passed. Trent who wrote it said this song belonged to Johnny now. Trents version was about addiction and was excellent. But this version is superior because it strikes a chord with everyone. Not every person deals with addiction, but everyone will have to deal with the end of life and facing their life choices and regrets. We do lose everyone, we all will because that final journey we have to take alone. The final line is the most emotional I think. If he could go back and keep himself. Thats the biggest lesson. To achieve fame Johnny had to lose himself and become what the label and his fans wanted. This lead to addictions, crime, driving people away.... so don't burn your bridges and keep those you love and treasure then, keep true to yourself, because life is short and all the fame and money won't save you. The only thing you have is your heart, soul integrity. Don't give thst up.

One of the saddest images is the shattered Columbia framed album. Johnny put Columbia on the map and made them millions. They dropped them without notice in the 80's and Johnny never forgave them for it. Thank God for Rick Rubin, genius, who knew what Cash could bring to the table and was still powerful and relevant as an artist. Plus Johnny's FU attitude was perfect for Rubin's label American Recordings

He was only 71 years old, he died within the next year, he looks so old, much older than he was. I remember him in his prime, some flashbacks, it always makes me cry 😢

Bro I’m probably older than you are and definitely a grown ass man and I cry every time I watch A reaction to this video. I think we can all connect to this song because we’ve all dealt with pain and hurt and lost in fear in our lives and you get to the point where Johnny was and you realize none of that stuff that you spent your life doing really matters none of the awards or gold records helps you feel better when you’ve lost all your loved ones and you’re sick yourself. The only thing that is important at that point is your relationship with God your friends and your family the rest of it is just an empire of dirt. Ashes to ashes dust to dust. RIP Johnny Cash

This was Johnny's epitaph and I think that is exactly what he wanted it to be, a truthful tribute to his life, a life he knew would soon take the most mysterious journey of all. Like all hero stories he fell, but persevered to become the hero, and in Johnny's journey...to become the "man in black". R.I.P. Johnny Cash

Johnny was known and respected across genres. Many other artists list him as an inspiration. The story of his first meeting with Bob Dylan is a classic.

Men seem to cry more than women to this song. Very powerful.

Have you ever watched the movie”Walk the Line” it dictates Johnny’s life and how June saved him. He always wears black and if you listen to his song “Man in Black” you’ll get the true Johnny

Great reaction! Your tears show your humanity. JC struggled with addiction throughout his life. I think a lot of those struggles were because of his brother dying in an accident while working. JC blamed himself for his brothers death. His wife, June Carter Cash is the woman on the stairs watching him record this song. She passed away May 15, 2003, Johnny passed away Sept. 12 2003. JC did a few concerts for prisons that were put on vinyl. Iconic stuff back in the day. He did spend some time in prison himself.

This song was originally written & performed by "Nine Inch Nails". It was written about drugs & depression. But Johnny Cash's version is considered the best. His version is more about regret for past mistakes in life & realizing material things & fame mean nothing in the end. When the video was filmed in February 2003, Cash was 71 years old & had serious health problems. His frailty is clearly evident in the video. He died seven months later, on September 12 & his wife, June Carter Cash, who is shown gazing at her husband in two sequences of the video, had died on May 15 of the same year.

Watch the movie walk the line about Johnny and you will understand why this song meant a lot to him. He struggled his life with addictions but his wife and her family helped him through it.

Love this song and video, it has to be The most emotional song in a long time. I was crying right along with you. No matter how many times I see it I need tissues 😢 Johnny is Legendary, Thanks guys 💞

A powerful message for all to learn from, in the end everything that is acquired becomes meaningless if you lose yourself in the process.

The humility and honesty of a man at the end of his days on Earth. What an authentic and sublime exit. To The Man in Black - Thankyou Sir. Z.👍
