the indians were here before everyone in america but people gave them small pox and killed them because they were so called "savages" well u piss anyone off they are gonna be mean back so lession learned mexicans came for spain and indians came from asia alot longer ago.
fuck rasist people i wish i could send some where and have them all together and just drop an atomic bomb MEXICAN WHERE HERE FIRST TAKE UR ASSES BACK TO EUROP...I DONT CARE WHAT THE RASIST SAY YOUR STEPING ON MEXICAN LAND
@Nadiaandheroldies If you want to go down that road, why don't you give your land back to the Aztecs, then? And why don't they giv ite back to the Maya? Oh WAIT THAT'S RIGHT YOUR ANCESTORS KILLED THEM ALL! Leave the fingerpointing in the school yard, you hypocritical numbskull.
@Nadiaandheroldies Sir, you really are an idiot. Unless your a native Indian from Mexico, i.e. Mayan or Aztec, you yourself are from Europe. Mexico was populated from conquest of Spain. Oh, spain is in Europe, Idiot. Learn some history. Your ignorance makes it impossible for you to know what racisim is. And before you call me a white honky. I am Cuban-American, and my roots are also from Europe (Spain). Spain conquered the natives in Cuba also.
@TheZombieman225 i dare you to say your first comment anywhere there are smart people. because they will laugh at you and then automatically think less of all mexicans
what the fuck happen to music i mean even country music inst as good as it used to be im 15 and think that 50-80 were great but 90 sucked and 2000 is just as worse we need guys with true grit like johnny cash and don williams not any queer whos balls havent dropped like justin beiber it makes you think and hope the world will end on 2012
@eli7948 Nope, there was good stuff in the 80s, 90s, and even now in the 2000s, although as a musician I can say that it's hard for the average DIY musician to pull a studio-quality record of well-written songs out of your ass coming from a humble background.. So you get somewhat generic songs with crappy production, but there are still great artists in every decade, you just have to look for them. People that complain are just lazy because they won't dig.. underground music, man..
@TheSunAndAntarctica when i put 50-80s i meant 80s are included i love the 80s like Cinderella,damn yankees,LA guns Faster pussycats ect GnR was great even though they led into the 90s now that the original members are gone GnR sucks nirvana is what really fucked up the 90s. rap and scream and those pussys have truly fucked the 2000s up if you ask me we need people to have talent. janis joplin had a bad voice from drugs but yet her music had meaning and was still good
@eli7948 Well, I don't particularly care for Nirvana - Soundgarden/Alice in Chains were my two favorite alt rock bands, but to say the 90s were horrible.. ? We had Jeff Buckley, Neutral Milk Hotel, Tom Waits, Ween, Sigur Ros, Mr. Bungle, My Bloody Valentine, Radiohead, Primus, Modest Mouse, the Flaming Lips, Pearl Jam, Portishead, Massive Attack, Slint, Bjork, Temple Of The Dog, PJ Harvey, Talk Talk, A Tribe Called Quest, the Red House Painters (a personal fav), the RHCP.. I could go on..
@Tyreall101 I was born in Jasper, TX 33 years ago, I think that makes me far from a kid and definately a Texan. Thank you...
As for the discussions of "indians" being here first, there's evidence to the contrary that early europeans crossed a massive ice bridge into north America...
@pele7208 why you mad though? search youtube for ice age columbus... Mine and Rick Perry's IQs are higher than those of retarded folks... so bitter...
@rickfocks vote for Rick Parry with an A, A for America. i am not mad, i just like to point out a retarded comment when i read one. BTW, I am glad yours and your governor's IQ are higher than those of retarded folks.
@rickfocks Sorry I only have one disagreement with ya, I've been to Texas and the weather and food was great, but I'm from California and we have the finest women in the world here, I mean songs don't go "I wish they all could be texas girls"
@chocolatedonut31 I think I have a lot of likes because people agree with me and/or have a sense of humor. Your opinion of me or what you think cowardly is less important than the safety of my family.Two people in this song had guns, the instigator died. I don't see a problem...
@rickfocks Actually, the instigator was the guy that was the killer. The guy "laughing [Billy Joe] down" for seemingly no reason-- then again, they were both apparently drunk. So I suppose the role of "instigator" could apply to both as neither could think clearly.
@Jake45499 I doubt it. You're talking shit over the internet, meaning you have an insecure ego, and most likely you're weak. I'll admit too, I'm pretty outta shape but judging on how insecure you are, I can't be as bad as you.
@Jake45499 Plus after viewing your profile, I can see you're a racist. How pathetic. You've favorited a song by Johnny Rebel who is an open racist and who writes many racist songs, and you've favorited a video where Clint Eastwood says, "I hate niggers". You're one of those blindly patriotic southerners who can't think for themselves. Pathetic...
@chocolatedonut31 You're one of those liberal yankees who has their head stuck up their ass, where I come from people like you get their head handed to you
@Jake45499 Where I'm from, people's egos aren't so fragile that anyone who disagrees with them is attacked. You're just making yourself look more and more pathetic...
Well, I don't claim to know much about carrying, but I do know that Johnny Cash was a genious at sensing the political and social pendulum, and then capitalizing commercially on it. This song is a perfect example of that.
how is this song a flop? youre a moron OGENITE this is an excellent story in song format about how some boys just dont listen to their mothers and have to learn the hard way. you obviously know nothing about carrying a gun.
Cash was a talented man, but occasionally succumbed to pandering to political correctness. Every great artist has their share of "flops". This is without a doubt the most pathetic excuse for "music" or "art" that Cash ever produced.
@ogenite this might not be his best song,about every artist gives into pressure and political correctness, but i dont see you writing anything with this deep meaning, before you critisize a song, maybe you should know what its about kthanks, sorry try again next time
@ogenite It's actually a pretty classy song for me that even younger kids could enjoy without profanity or anything, and the message is probably better suited for younger people who seem to think they can take on the world with no repercussions. It's a call for modesty, to not be so quick to attack others, ect. Stay humble.
No matter the song or artist or musical genre, someone is always there to call it monotonous or constantly loud (same kind of monotony) or this or that.. Just shut the fuck up, nobody really cares. Why'd you come here to shit on this song? In the grand scheme, it's a great song. Johnny Cash isn't worthy of some douchebag criticizing a memorable, well-written country song.. save that for the others that get 10 billion views and mentioned here..
@ogenite And by others, I mean other artists who get billions of views for one shitty vapid though well-written pop song. (As if they write their own songs, puhlease..) Some of which get mentioned in many other artist videos for no fucking reason, as if the people watching those videos are going to give that artist a chance.. hell no.
@ogenite BTW, not even to argue although I know that's too much to ask, how is this song "politically correct"?
The political and social pendulum.. ? A blank, empty statement. He wrote a compelling, interesting yet to-the-point, simple story with a somewhat droney melody that most people would agree is very memorable. It all works in perfect harmony, as if the words and actual song were almost together lifetimes before us.. That's difficult for most songwriters.
A #1 hit on the Country & Western Charts for "The Man in Black." It was his third #1 C&W hit for Johnny Cash in the Rock Era. It was also the 31st #1 C&W song in the Rock Era. Johnny, I can't believe that it's been 7 years. We miss you.
