Johnny Cash - I Hung My Head

[Airanix07]

love this song =)

[jesusmurderer01]

now if ony sting would just write songs instead of performing them we'd be gettin somewhere

[xtndagape]

I know its hard to believe everyone but this song is by Sting and was released back in 1996 and Johnny Cash made this song his own. It's hard to believe its not his. It came off the album American IV: The Man Comes Around which is an album of mostly covers including this one. Long Live The Man In Black

[TheItalianPerson]

well at least he knows his aim was good :I

[Jeansie101]

Credit to Sting for writing such an amazing song, credit to Cash for performing it so wonderfully

[Ricterfan]

Uh.. whats a sheen?

[drawkward234]

@Ricterfan Charlie Sheen. lol jk. im not really sure, myself

[Ricterfan]

@drawkward234 lol nice

[hockeygoal43]

A great song, created by one of the greatest lyricists of all time.

[joshuaWEC]

@hockeygoal43

Wait... do you mean Johnny Cash or Sting? Because Sting did write this song, Johnny cash just made it sound amazing.

[hockeygoal43]

@joshuaWEC I thoroughly enjoy Sting's lyrics and I also love Johnny Cash is what I meant

[semiserioussam]

This moved me so much more than Sting's original version. Tears stream down my face.

[0oXxWaCkyxXo0]

ONE OF THE BEST SINGERS EVER LOVE U JOHNNY CASH 

[BattlefieldVeterans]

This reminds me of my past family members. R.I.P.

[Lunarvx22]

Johnny Cash has major cross-genre appeal. Everybody, from Rock fans to Electronic Music fans to Hip Hop fans can appreciate this man. He's a master of his craft and a true artist.

[ilia2K10]

The 1 dislike must of been the lonely rider.

[bobqueerful]

@ilia2K10 anyone who dislikes should be the 2nd dead rider.

[jordancartercrooked]

@ilia2K10 :D

[MrStevethepirate36]

Fuck you Sting.

[Tojo89]

@MrStevethepirate36 Without Sting, this song wouldn't exist.

[MegaXXDiabloXx]

Hey Marcdesrosiers.... Listen to the words you simple minded Troll !!

[MegaXXDiabloXx]

The path of the rightoues man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men, Blessed is he who in the name of charity and good will sheppard the week through the vally of darkness< For he is truly is lords keeper and the finder of lost children, And i will strike down upon thee with great vengance and furious anger those who atempt to poison and desroy my brothers, And you will know my name is the lord, When i lay my vengance upon thee...

[Rickswars]

Great song.

[mdfilmguy]

I saw Sting in concert a few months ago. He talked about how he likes country music but can't pull it off because he's "not even from the south of England." But every so often, a real country singer will cover one of his songs. He considered it a great honor to have this song covered by Johnny Cash.

[Darcea68]

Johnny cash isn't country, Johnny cash is in a genre of his own :)

[TheKyoput]

@Darcea68

I agree. One of those rare artists that can't be defined.

[marcdesrosiers]

one of the best songs from cash, if this song doesn't stir something inside you, your a zombie :P

[papashangofan]

@marcdesrosiers I'm not a zombie. I'm a bodybuilder, yet this doesn't stir anything inside me. I never hang my head, I only hang wet towels from my erect penis as I find Kegels ineffectual.

[longstrid48]

this song made me cry manly tears

[squeak1964]

Haunting~~~~~

[wartmiller]

This song actually makes me empathise with the narrator - as if it were me who'd shot the guy. Actually had me in tears the first time I heard it. Also reminds me of Clint Eastwood quote from 'Unforgiven' - "Hell of a thing to kill a man.. You take away everything he has, and everything he's ever gonna have."

[Sativa1337]

This some great fucking music

[anthonyoshea3308]

i never fully understood this song until my dad said coldly one time that he killed many many better men than me, and i hung my head, and i actually believed him, its strange what generations of war do to people

[iGlennnnn]

@anthonyoshea3308 "It's strange what generations of war do to people." So true.

[volcommane]

Sounds ALOT better on 480p RIP Mr. Cash you were and will always be a true man of the Lord... Thanks for inspiring the world...

[thefailmaster357]

R.I.P johnny cash you will never be forgottin

[TheSwineJu]

1 person should hang their head.

[Rickswars]

Great!

[cheeseburganhamman15]

woah...

[925goodfella]

1 poor guy hung his headD:

[thepeacekeeper6610]

by god all the ppl can do here is puut johny down wtf is wrong with you ppl

[jak3II]

This just goes to show you what boredom can do to you.

[kayous42]

Sting is a great story teller, and song writer. He is very honored that Cash covered his song.

[BALDAZO95]

who in the hell dislikes this song that it only reached 51,433 views

[papashangofan]

@BALDAZO95 I disliked it cause Johnny Cash was a nazi sympathizer and I struggle to separate politics from music, although this song has some of the best drum and bass I've ever heard.

[demdanglibruls]

@papashangofan He was? What did he do?

[papashangofan]

@demdanglibruls As far as I know he actively participated in the German siege of Leningrad. Granted he was only 15 at the time and blamed it on societal pressures, but I believe a man should stand a head above, not a head below.

[demdanglibruls]

@papashangofan I think you are seriously confusing him with someone else. As far as I know he has never been to St. Petersburg, but he did act as a soviet code translator after WW2 helping the US in West Germany. He was the first to pick up news of Stalin's death. This was after WW2, during the rise of the USSR.

[demdanglibruls]

@papashangofan I suggest you like the video now, that the confusion is cleared up.

[Rickswars]

@papashangofan You liar,take your hate with you you racist pig.

[papashangofan]

@Rickswars When God was handing out class you thought he said ass. That explains why you get an absolute shit ton of pussy. You're a pick up artist.

[Rickswars]

@papashangofan That's a good one,i like it asshole!,i got a better one,when i was in pendelton prison in 1978 in Indiana max.a inmate said to me,''man iam sick of your schit ,you think you are God'' I said No wrong, Listen

''God thinks he 's Big rick''..

that threw the dummy a thinking.. then i sucker punched him!.

[itskynam]

This is so powerful ; makes me cry every time.

[KineruMuzunaki]

@costcomedy I thought God was God, and Jesus was just his son. I'm confused now...

[jaser1100]

@KineruMuzunaki god is god, the one created everything,

jesus is prophet only, there is verses proves that jesus is prophet only, not god,

if u or anyone want the prove PM me

[bryson69er]

@jaser1100 well your a damn dirty jew

[jaser1100]

@bryson69er im not jew,

im muslim

[scorpion7334]

[mistacrousejacob]

@pupyflea its called man slaughter. hand it was his fault because you never pint a gun at a person

[pupyflea]

[packer041]

Cash is right on the money.

[scorpion7334]

@packer041 I GET IT! :)

[shotgunsrbest]

[jaser1100]

@costcomedy jesus is not savior, his not god neither,

his just a prophet, and romans made him god,

want proof ? PM ME

[THEZOOLOGIST123]

@jaser1100 who the fuck are you?? What have you accomplished in life......

Your trash....The wolrd wouldn't give 1/2 a fuck if you died.

[jaser1100]

@THEZOOLOGIST123 i'm Jaser, i'm student so tell now i didn't accomplished anything in my life, but i've saved someones life,

i don't care if the world give a fuck about my death,

[RiVaLairsoftreviews]

I hate county but when it comes to Johnny Cash thats a whole different story. i love Johnnys music

[joelakastud123]

@RiVaLairsoftreviews SAME HERE i freakin hate country especially that cmt type crap that all sounds the same but MAN IS JOHNNY CASH FUCKING AMAZING!

[RiVaLairsoftreviews]

I hate county but when it comes to Johnny Cash thats a whole different story. i love Johnnys music.

[Charlesmm88]

What I appreciate is that, as a person whom is not into country at all and pretty set in my ways in terms of what I like. That Johnny Cash's music can mean the world to me.

[LOKITUPISBACK]

@DEADnedDEAD And Johnny Cash prays to NOBODY

[ExtruhKrizpee]

I HATE COUNTRY MUSIC, but some people just whip ass...

[MaximusDowns]

I send all my friends who say they don't like country to this song. I honestly believe that if you can tell a good story with words or music, you can make any genre of music sounds good.

[TheMagzicaL]

''My great taste in music brought me here''

[yezidi11]

i hung my head

[TheMagzicaL]

My great taste in music brought ne here

[kovenwolf]

Back when I was fifteen, I didn't like Cash, now this song turned me to listen in a different way, and I listen quite a bit while I hang my head.

[swoosh26]

great song

[IGotN0]

@wootton95 No dislikes .. enough said

[Atheneastro]

I thought that was him singing in a movie!

[lyonslaforet]

I can't understand All Music Guide when they qualify this Johnny Cash cover as clunky. It's harrowing as one could wish and a treat to sing!

[camcorderdc]

Does anyone else know any other sad sounding country songs like this?

[hiimgod801]

@camcorderdc

Alot.. Mostly still by Cash :P

[LeoSernado]

@camcorderdc Anything by Johnny Cash.

[Drummingman7]

did anyone else look for this song after seeing the Green Hornet?

[sk8r2221]

All the dislikes are fr..... wait there are no dislikes

[2Longerr]

Johny is live in us heart!!

[MrBigmothatrucker]

[frank78odwyer]

Epic song RIP Johnny

[UKWildcats93]

[111pikachu]

[yetipoop420]

Johnny Cash my nigga this song is sick heard it watchin The Green Hornet lol...

[thrasos93]

Exellent lyrics/music and THE voice that can actually create perfection...Thank you Johnny.R.Cash..!

[soccerrox94]

every time you listen to a song by johnney cash, you are always amazed by how powerful his songs are

[Themis711]

99 percent of modern music is trash that will be forgotten over the next few decades. Johnny Cash belongs to the 1 percent whose music will live on..

[excenium]

a song with passion

[orerocookies12345]

badass song



[stereokid]

Nice touch with bell ring at 02:44 and 02:54, always sounds cool on a good stereo.

[woutertron]

"Went into the sheen"? It's "stream", surely.

[TheRavingRatBag]

I like Sting, but his version of this was shite

[trentreker]

you people with your ads in these vids to incredible songs. i actually saw one here about "the great work bp is doing in the gulf."

fuck you. johnny cash would agree. fuck you.

[steeldustbronze]

Sting wrote this in 9/4; Johnny did it in 4/4, nice touch.

[zoddie]

there is only one man in black.

[JMSmith856]

@zoddie only one, and he does not share POWER!

[countrymusicgtavboy2]

@zoddie johnny fucking cash.....

[kevinvi7]

@zoddie Will Smith??????? Jk i know what you mean.

[papashangofan]

@zoddie You're an idiot. I just saw Miqauel Falcao knock out a man dressed head to toe in black skin in his very first UFC fight. You're either a racist or an idiot.

[monstermark8]

@papashangofan You, sir, are the idiot. Johnny Cash: The man in black.

[krishockett]

sting originally wrote this song and i will say johnny did a good job

[BlitzCaliber]

@krishockett In my opinion, Cash's version sounds better. Sting's sounds far too cheerful for this song.

[AVP2Ftw]

@BlitzCaliber in my opinion fuck you....just kidding but i think stings is faster pased so i'm not waiting

[BlitzCaliber]

@AVP2Ftw I just like how he presents it. The lyrics are kinda depressing so I prefer a slower pace. But to each their own. Good day. :)

[MultiMrsmiley]

@BlitzCaliber yea. slower sounds fit to what the Mans sayin.

[ExtreamElliot]

It's so sad.. it makes me wanna cry..

[milo4100]

such a great great great song
