I like the Johnny Cash version just a lot more. But the original is great too.

I also think that the video added to the song in a way that they rarely do

Johnny Cash made that his song in much the same way that Jimi Hendrix made "All Along The Watchtower" his.


I've gotta go with Cash


Even Trent Reznor has said this...

Johnny Cash bro. That fact that he and his wife died just months after the filming of the video ist just very emotional. It's his epitath, and it's very sad.

I like NIN but I have to say Cash. There is just something about an old man's voice that puts a lot more emotion into the song than Trent Reznor could ever try to do. I don't know, its like its biology or something.

Cash just sounds broken down and at the end of the line. Its great.

I usually don't care for the constant trolling, but that was funny.

If you've ever seen NiN perform this live, you wouldn't think about cash's version again.

Cash did a great job and I'm not Knockin him at all.

I'd say this is a rare instance where the cover is better than the original.

NIN link doesn't work and I've never heard it. But I can't see how it can be better than Cash.
