Just because he has a low voice doesn't mean he sound anything like John Cash, there is no country twang, sounds like me when I've had a drink or 2, this is absolutley terrible. They should have kept Cashs' voice in the music.
To an extent, a part of Joaquin Phoenix's life paralleled that of Johnny Cash, both having lost an older brother. Johnny lost his brother Jack, Joaquin lost his brother River.
I don't know...but something just tells me Joaquin can't sing anything lower than maybe an E...yet they have him barely going to Cash's Pedal C...Maybe voice modulation to reach the very low notes?
River and Rain were in Aleka's Attic. Summer in Rain were in a band Now Rain is in a band with her husband. Joaquin was a perfect fit for Johnny i think and he sounds lots like him. I love listing to Joaquin sing:) I love it when him and Reese Witherspoon sing Jackson:)
Joaqin, sure follows Johnny's spirit (may his soul rest in peace) in such a great way. I think every Johnny Cash fan would agree with me when i say that it was him that made country what it is today :D
Awesome version. Joaquin Phoenix sings it great. I'm sure though that if Johnny Cash had recorded the original in a modern studio of today it would kick everything in the but including Johnny himself. There has never been and will probably never be any greater musician than Johnny Cash. Thank you America for giving the world such a great man (I'm not american).
Johnny and June had been a huge fan of Joaquin since Gladiator. They would often invite him to their house and chat a lot. They were "mates" of sorts.. J.R. always had a thing for Phoenix.
great voice!!
