  • J'ai eu des frissons ='(

  • wow cool work,,greaattt song

  • 0:19 WTF

  • Very powerful video ...had me in tears ...we are destroying ourselves ...

  • and that was age restrictive?

  • i sulat u sir u honor us men

  • We are an awful plague. I dont know what the protocol is for a dominant species that knows it is destroying everything around it. There is no doubt this world would be better without us on it.

  • never forget, humans, yes, me and you both, are a fucking petulant disease.

  • most of these people are fighting for their future and freedoms, its sad to see a government so out of touch with the people who vote them in power, the the same people they represent.

  • Comment removed

  • such a sad sing just remember suicide isnt the answer!!!!

  • dont you just love watching hippies get the shit beat out of them

  • NWO's already here. Its kicking off all over the world. gny hit germany then potugal then spain then britain. the streets are gny burn. So sad.

  • hey man, this is open to interpretation but this video really fucked me up. Just wondering what your intention (if you have one) was with choosing of the images?

  • This video is pretty messed up! But i like the song.

  • a great cover of this song (MUCH better than the original)

    powerful vid, JC's vocal is brilliant

  • Sometimes I wonder if there is some kind of club for people to get together and go around posting negative comments on songs they don't like for the hell of it. Doesn't make sense to me. If you don't like the music then don't listen to it. Simple as that. No need to get other people all pissed off and high strung.

  • @DarkCurow No need to for people to get all pissed off and high strung over nonsensical, opinionated blockheads either. In lamest terms, forget them. Enjoy the song and ignore what they have to say.

  • @DarkCurow there is actually. its called 4chan.

  • Powerful.

  • cops are so awesome.......not

  • At 1.14 that man saves the other person from a beating. Well done ^^

    Great video.

  • ware do u git ur clipsx

  • @HARDCOERXRAY2 just cuz you are online doesnt mean you have to type like a retard... Where do you get your clips... not hard

  • @bdc911 hi just cuz ur on the net doint mean u have to be an asshole so just FUCK OFF AND DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @HARDCOERXRAY2 haha someone is getting a little upset, do you need a tissue?

  • Awsome video, keep on revealing and making things like these public!

  • Shot in the face at 20 seconds.. -_- The guy that shot him did it so casually aswell..... " Oh fucking hell, another person to shoot, BOOM "

  • 1:45 looks like it sucked

  • Grat video...

  • Ok, I just noticed that both times I've referenced a point in the video, it starts it at the 20 or 21 second mark which is 2 - 3 seconds AFTER the point I was referencing.... Oh well, great vid!!!

  • Dang it, must have been 0:18 that I meant.... Powerful vid, such a shame that these things happen.... 5 stars!!

  • Damn.... 0:20 is fucking brutal!!!

  • some deserve it

  • you're vids are powerful

  • Comment removed

  • shame on us look what we have done to gods planet

  • PALESTINA RESISTE!

  • R.I.P. GUS!

  • god damn

  • at 2:53 there is a riot cop using a cone to fight people back lol

  • this is like the badddest jam going right now. it bleeds.

    i hung my head.

    i hung my head.

    we'll ride together to kingdom come.

  • what are you doing while people are fighting for food and freedom?

    the world is cruel.accept it!or better change it...

  • man u missed the point so bad send a message if u wanna discuss

  • Its people like you who hide from the true media, people being killed around the world, but you just like to pretend its not there.

  • 0:20. gets me everytime, yuckk.

  • It still touches me.

    Tyvm HTM2

  • Humanity ... ?

  • 1:10. You got pwned!!

  • Comment removed

  • cops are a disgrace sometimes

  • hahaha at 1.30, what was that guy hoping to achieve? a piece of wood vs a hench land rover lol

  • i fuckin love riots

  • Why?

  • menschenrechte??es lebe DIE demokratie..

  • i cant deny that people are capable of such horrors.

  • at 0:55 what is that quote I can't make it out

  • if I knew somebody who wont fight

    if I grab you, I will eat you Raw - I think :S

  • Anyone know if the scene at :20 is real? I didn't even know you could show that.

  • yea that was real, just one of the many conflicts in africa :(

  • An amazing song that, always gives me goose bumps and an incredible montage of pictures but I'm not convinced they fit the song, perhaps I am missing something, not sure.

  • I have to agree with you, the montage is incredible, but the song is not about terrific brutality within mankind, but about the unmeant murder of an innocent man and the results of that deed. The location is the Western part of the USA and some pictures of the Wild West and lost outlaws would fit much more - makes me think of John Steinbeck!

  • shisha86 i disagree, i think that by putting the film to this song poses the question 'why are these people committing these acts of violence?' why does anyone? the song is about a man who regrets something he's done. do the people in the video regret anything now? what do we gain through riots? i think this video raises some really interesting questions and that its actually quite insightful of honkeytonkman to put the 2 together!

  • 1:17 that officer is beating that man and this guy in this orange vest just tackles him off that was good

  • I think the song symbolizes one man's personal issue of salvation.

    Although I think the clips are interesting.

  • Eraser? I LOVE THAT MOVIE!

  • peace...

  • 1.17 that officer is beating that man, some one saves him. God bless

  • 0:20 was brutal

    i loved the movie, went perfect with the song

  • Cash was the best. Fantastic song with great lyrics.

  • Although you're right on all accounts Sting wrote this song.

  • isnt it amazing how people stand up to the system like in many of those clips,maybe the world needs a new order so to speak ........of peace and civility

  • what a beutiful world.

    best song

  • @ArikBulldog I would'nt trade it for any other, its a little dirty but in this world freedoms aren't given, they're fought for.

    and there comes a time when such injustices can no longer be tolerated, no man or woman wants to bring a child into the world to face the same hardships of brutal regimes etc.

    We can laugh at it while surfing the web, but the freedoms we enjoy have been paid for by those before us.

  • Peace all

  • such a great song.

  • greatsong my name tops all of yours

  • I hated this video at first, because the song is not about mob violence or political violence. But then I thought -- what's the difference?. Violence is relational. There is no such thing as individual violence. It bleeds, and flows from one to another to all. The juxtaposition of words and images in this video captures this.

  • i wouldn't say the relationship is the violence, i would say the relationship is the sadness.

  • I'd say the relationship is for the fight they all put up for the cause they believe.

  • the relationship between the song and the video? i think you're speaking of another relationship mate.

  • amazing song. powerful video. great singer.

  • this song is amazing r.i.p mr cash God bless You

  • this video dos'nt match the song !

  • I'm guessing all those situations are a little(LOT?) shameful...so yeah, it matches.

  • this is not a song about world unrest

  • Shame is shame. This video is shameful. Tienanmen Square...is a proud moment?

    The lyrics cover shame directly tied to violence.

  • more guilt than shame, lucy

  • real ingenious name ya nancy boy

  • Way to split hairs on guilt and shame...

    And yes, my name is ingenious, i'm always the first to register with it...Slickskillet sounds creative but...123? And you're pointing fingers?!?...

    Go back to watching videos, please.

  • it would not register wihtout

    the 123. i could have put 69,

    or 666. those are so unique.

    maybe there is another slickskillet.

  • Wait, why the fuck does his name matter that much to you?

  • lollilol okay.

  • some people are just stupid. and they show it with every text. i used to get worked up over some texts but when you turn off your computer they all go away.

  • cash rules...and makes me ashamed at the same time.

    think about it

  • i love "Hurt", yes all covers, but he feels like no other singer, i´m spanish and speak english very bad, but when i heard His Voice i think that i´m understanding everything. is "I hug my head" a cover too?

  • i hung my head *

  • 'to hang your head' means to be ashamed - to be deeply sorry for something

  • i hung my head is a cover from a song written by sting... me pasa lo mismo con esta cancion en voz de cash, siento q lo entiendo bastante bien... el video de la cancion de sting tambien lo encuentras aqui... saludos desde mexico

  • He is a L*E*G*E*N*D

    R.I.P we will never forget you.

    xxx

  • johnny cash is the best singer in history

  • His voice may not be brilliant but his poetry sure as shit is!

  • sting wrote this, u2 wrote 'one', NIN wrote hurt, bonnie prince billy wrote 'I see a darkness', nick cave wrote the mercy seat.

    Cash didn't even write ring of fire.

    all his best songs are covers!!

  • maybe not but he did the best ever covers for them, better than the originals

  • impresionante ? noo i have my own ideas, and thats what i think ok? got a problem that i find our own specis a bit crazy?

  • impresionante

  • we are truely an amazing specis. even tho in this vid its violence you cant help but feel proud 2 be a human that we risk our own lifes 2 fight and die for what we belive in, only if we could harness that dertermanation and the universe is the limit lol.

  • this video makes me cry

  • i love how the people that riot against oppression and violence throw violence out with love and vengance, live by the sword die by the sword works both ways

  • song almost made me cry when i first heard it

    but i dont like crying its fucked up what happens in the song

  • THIS VIDEO IS FLAGGED???????? What tf is this world coming to.....Pack of BS!

  • Wtf?

    Honors for this video (0)

    (There are no honors for this video.)

     can someone plz honor this video?

    -T

  • ACAB

  • this song is sounding like the knife crime now in englang....you gotta hang em....even though i feel for the man in the song who shot the rider...you kill a man for no reason then you gotta go....eye for an eye

  • its reasoning like that that makes the world a shit place to live.

  • you cant just kill people and get awasy wth it..thats why england is a SHIT place to live cos people have no fear of punishment and go around stabbing people...p.s its your kind of reasoning thats making this world a lawless place to live....

  • damn right

  • good job man!

  • 1.45 why did that officer have to do that, so uneeded

  • brilliant vid to a brilliant song......moving

  • Johnny Cash is GOD

  • hell ya!!

  • Mankind are really capible of some horrific things.

    R.I.P to all innocent people who have died, and will die.

    God bless!

  • and this is the shit that can get video taped.imagine what happens behind closed doors.

  • johnny cash is the greatest musician EVER.

  • why is it so important to link this song to these pictures? Tell me more about it...

  • The song is about misunderstanding, needless violence, and regret, all of which are embodied by this video. It's a powerful statement, and the atrocities this world has self-inflicted should cause survivor-syndrome on behalf of our species, tbh.

  • couldnt have put it better myself

  • I'd love to be a cop and smash fucking scum like in this video, any of you who take the side of rioters are taking the side of peadophiles and muderers, but i guess thats what kind of sick fucks you are.

  • die in a fire.

  • haha

    if all those people are murderers and petifiles you and your police should be putting them in jail. as long as there on the streets, they can protest as much as they want

  • they arnt all fukin criminals, maybe some but mos are protesting for freedom and respect. you dont now jack shit idiot

  • Tinpot dictators and their police-states are always right, don't you agree berettaboy? If we're "taking the side of peadophiles [sic] and muderers [sic]" then you're right there, reinforcing Saddam, Mao, Stalin, and every other dictator running his country through brutality.

  • fuck you, most of them are fighting for free dom and justice, u piece of shit now jack shit.

    The chinese students are fighting to be free and have an education so fuck u !

  • yes but theres no need for violence altogether even if there fighting for freedom if the government wasnt oppresive thereuld be no violence.

  • are you american?

  • What do you call the fucking american revolution? violence in the name of freedom, and i'd say it was justified. it's idiotic to say it is never justified.

  • yes but if the govt wasnt oppressive it wouldnt happen

  • You have the brain the size of a peanut. Also how do you know anything about what those people are doing. Now beat yourself to death with your computer.

  • touching

  • ♥

  • At 0:13, is that the riot that was shown in 28days later?

  • im only 31 years old and i wish there was some one like big johnny cash to sing and perform songs like this ...kid rock for me its on your toes...

  • epic vid btw. just shows how shut mankind is.

  • this song is literally awesome it shows what people do when they get scared it isn't most peoples fault

  • What a nasty animal we humans are....

  • beautiful

  • the song is good, but the video is drivel

  • Seems odd to me that Sting could write a song like this. It's perfect for Johnny Cash though.

  • i think sting is an amazing musician, performer, and songwriter... but if you would have told me that j cash wrote this i would believed you as far as the lyrics but if you listen to the timing and the way the verses fall it does sound like sting... but either way it is a magnificent song and j cash does it more than justice.

  • If by "violence promoting video" you mean "capture of some of the most significant moments in world history," then yes. Get past the face value.

  • MY God Brilliant.

    The conditioning of so many to reject truth is nearing its conclusion

  • What a powerful song and video !

    RIP J R

    A person to remember and honour he new what he wanted and acheived it!

    What a man !

  • Amen

  • The video isn't about promoting violence, it shows how insane people act. When you listen to the song, as you know, it tells of a kid who shoots a man dead and doesn't know why he did it. "I hung my head" you are suppose to hang your head in sorrow for humankind and the cruel nature of this world. so yeah it is depressing!

  • he didn't want to kill him. he killed the rider because of an accident..

  • Yes, but why did he run? What was the result? Is every wrong word said an accident? Is every first bullet an accident? Is death a mistake? Is killing a cruel human accident? The judge asked him what went through his mind, and it is a question we ask ourselves everyday for everything we do. Did we do the right thing? Who knows what is right? What point of view is the correct one?

    Did a solider join the army to kill? Did the soldier dream of pulling the trigger?

  • that is a very sad and depressing video

  • This video has nothing to do with the song.

  • Yes. I was hoping to see Cash at all its intensity.

  • Excellent video! Makes me feel sick to think that with all our intelligence this is what we have turned the world into. People felt the need to fight the authorities with good reason and paid the price for the freedom they desired. This si the world my son will be born into and it makes me feel guilty as sin it's self. Greed it seems pushes people to extremes and even those thathave all they need want more, no wonder Mr Cash never got the chance to wear that rainbow he was bashing on about

  • Really doesn't fit in with the new all Republican kill the Jews crowd in Nashville does he? Nashville has regressed to total crap since Johnny's time, back then rock n rollers and Country music guys were in the same crowd.

  • ...Actually, they didn't. If you haven't noticed, most notable musicians from that time (Mr. Cash and Mr. Presley, etc.) were usually from the south. Johnny Cash is rock and roll, and he does the occasional country twang, but he was rock n' roll all the way.

  • this song is so good it has meaning and is really good the onli song i like from johnny cash x

  • wat is it about johnny cash's voice.. its just awseome..

  • good song

  • did u all come here to preach political blastphemy or are u just like me who came for 3 and a half minutes of crisp jhonny boy.

  • Why would you think that?

  • this the best song in the world from james

  • "peace without war is not possible, peace of mind is different"

  • With no war, there is no peace. War inevitably brings about the other, and vice versa.

    It is the duality of life.

  • True that.t

  • sis pacis instruo pro bellum = (if you want peace prepare for war)all i have to say.......

  • good video

  • it mite sound wrong but war in a since is a good, cus without war there is no piece, it's primal instinct, there will always be war, and when the war is over there is a zin like piece time. then we get back to beating each other.

  • Thanks for sharing this great song with us. I finally did a cover of it, please give it a listen if you get a little time.
