There are 2 types of people in this world, one who know Sir Johnny Cash and other who will come to know of him. He's got a song for every emotion, every mood and every story.
no one can touch what johnny cash has done. "i shot a man in reno just to watch him die." epic line from one of the best songs. even his covers of other artists' songs brought new meaning to them, more than the artists who originally recorded them. RIP johnny cash.
Years ago I was listening to some BBC program on the radio. The broadcaster played this song and said in his opinion it was the most perfect country song ever written: simple, but deep, tells a story, but leaves something to the imagination, and it just sounds so good.
it's actually very inspiring. It helped me get through my heart break. thanks Johnny Cash. Sometimes you find someone you think is the one. But when she leaves, there's nothing you can do but move on. You're given an experience and when it ends, at least you had the opportunity to know someone who could love you in return. But it's time to move on. You may not like it, but life floats on.
Most likely it wasn't the 10 billionth. Much higher chance of it being the rap/pop with harsh lyrics we have today, but Apple didn't want to endorse any of those songs.
Just this morning before they announced the winner, I was loading music on my wifes iPod. She didn't want me to put my Johnny Cash on it. Her Loss. BTW, it was Ultimate Gospel.
what a marvelous man- the song is like johnny a heartbreaker! I was a little boy in Memphis when Mr.Cash recorded this song and I love jr and the song.
My great grandfather used to have an album with Johnny Cash when he was still in the Tenesee Two. I dont know what happend to it, though. They would have meant a lot to me :(

@ChainManProductions this is a little mix of country and rockabilly, many of johnny cash's songs is that ;) so try a little old 50's rockabilly
