  • The absolute best version of this song, Johnnys Voice so rich, U2's back up is so suttle yet so powerful.

  • I want this song played at my funeral.

  • @Zlouie123 good idea me to!

  • miss you John..

  • Great song - love Johnny Cash. It is on my fav U2 cd "ZOOROPA"

  • This is a brilliant song and the blend of U2 and Johnny Cash could not have been put down any better. Well done all. Incidentally recorded around the same time as U2 and Dylan doing Dylan's Series of Dreams if my information is correct......and that is a brilliant union as well.

  • Brill song and the vid is just as good.

  • Thanks ! What a video !!

  • The cover of Time, or Rolling Stone, which is the best?

  • Terrific video man.. and btw i totally agree with you !

  • man, good work!!!

  • If this were recorded in the right era, it would have been perfect for Fallout: New Vegas.

  • Jeesus, suck it up/ Fuck.

    Mung the dead fucker if you need to but Christ.

    He's dead.

    You take him.

    Just wanted the tune.

  • Jeesus, suck it up/  Fuck.

  • The one thing in my life that brought joy and happyness was the GREAT COUNTRY SINGER JOHNNY CASH I have a hand drawing of him that was signed by him in Bournemouth England which hangs with pride on my bedroom wall, there will never be such a great singer god rest Johnny Cash and Boxcar Willie

  • God bless John Ray Cash, Dios te bendiga, Johnny

  • una gran canción con un buen grupo y mejor cantante, pero el vídeo no se queda atrás, te felicito por las imágenes y las fotos tan bien seleccionadas. gracias por acercarnos a este enigmático cantante. canción de la película tan lejos y tan cerca y en lo personal altamente recomendable.

  • That's complement, rather than compliment, but yes - interesting video - not sure the U2 backing quite suits his voice though.

  • Comment removed

  • @korkeycat With respect, it was written by all of U2, not just the singer. There was no need for you to be rude. I just said I wasn't sure the backing suited him. I didn't criticise U2.

  • @dfarmbrough i do agree with you on the backing track, it's more disco rather then subtle rock ;)

  • @connormcj25 Thanks :-)

  • @connormcj25 This is a mono version, or a kind of: it lacks a channel, there is not the jingle

    (a jingle = a small metal disc, such as those arranged around the frame of a tambourine)

    in the refrain.

    ps

    About the becking track: the live version is better

  • great song, crappy video

  • June and the Carter family helped Johnny a great deal in his life, but Jesus would have been his guiding light.

  • Ah, got it. Thanks. Either of those guys can pen a lyric, though, huh?

  • OMG, totally awesome tribute! Thank U, tysvm!

  • Purely an awesome song

  • So glad I could met him as he was alive...great guy...I bought myself a disc of U2, its called Zooropa, AND AS A HEARD THAT SONG, I knew it will hard to beat...but we beat it...just hear it...thx for the upload

  • I remember when my ex fiance broke up with me , that night this song played and after listening to this song I got this feeling that it was for the best and that all would be ok. Then I put my head set on and went walking all over town. It was very healing for me. Thanks Johny you were there for me because I was 3 years sober at the time. A lot of your songs and meetings helped me so much. Now I have six years!! I did not take a drink but I went wandering and found Jesus!! :)

  • Excellent video, excellent song.

  • Cash foi sem duvida um dos genios do rock e tudo que for feito em honra a sua memoria é sempre valido.

  • Cash could have written this song yesterday and it would be perfectly appropriate-the sign of a songwriting genius!

  • @willyjaybob actually Bono wrote this song so the credit goes to him. Not the Cash didn't write some great songs as well ofcourse. :)

  • Awesome my friend , awesome !

  • Great video. Really did Johnny justice, thanks.

  • you the best dude live on

  • Mr Cash and Mr. Bono - you are both spiritual powerful men with amazing voices of angels.

    Thank you Bono for writing - and Mr. Cash for singing it!

  • @1summit7 oh my god.. i agree

  • The deep voice of Johnny is so amazing so many emmotions Thanks

  • Maybe the greatest song U2 guys ever written. Specially words and synth line, just brilliant.

  • This song is special to me. The person who told me that it existed was the person singing it. I was working on Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman, wearing an Achtung Baby teeshirt and he told me that the month before he'd been in Ireland recording this song. I had the opportunity hearing him sing without amplification and no recording of Cash has ever done justice to the depth and grandness of his voice in person. That song was Oh Danny Boy...

  • @tribudeuno - Really? Heckuva story. Even if you're pulling our collective legs ...

  • @mtflesruoytsacdaorb

    He was a very down to earth person, June also. It seemed that he was having quite a bit of trouble with his knee. His character was that of a famous gunfighter that had become the town sheriff, but who had tuberculosis. June had a part too, but I can't remember her role. But they didn't fool around, they worked really hard and were very professional...

  • @tribudeuno I am so jealous .... the good kind :P

  • @tribudeuno All I can say is...S-O-B...would've loved to have heard it!!!!! God bless you!

  • R.I.P Johnny Cash 1932 - 2003

  • Einfach super schön.

    Saluti dalla Germany per Australien

  • Everything about him just sends shivers down your spine , true true legend the kind that we kid ourselves still exist today ( except Nelson , Kristofferson etc.) God Bless John R. Cash!

  • U had opend my soul

    Greetings Rockynight

  • GREAT!!!!

    Johnny & U2 what do you want more?

  • class tune sang by a hero

  • wow this song is amazing

  • Boy what a life that guy had - fantastic song and picture show too, thanks for taking the time to set it up.

  • For JoFr3kinBrown

    There was a show done called Johnny Cash, the Man & His Music which included his returning to Dyess, AK to look at his old (gov't built) family home. That's the house you're asking about. It's available on dvd.

  • Beautiful job. I've always wished Johnny had done a video to this song. This is pretty close to what I wished for. Really enjoyed a lot of the rare & unique images - the mug shot, the engraved pistol (perfectly placed). Thanks.

  • BEST SONG OF MY LIFE!

  • Whats Johnny doing at that house I use to remember what it was all about

  • I like alot of different types of music but this is a brilliant cut gemstone that is one of my absolute favorite songs..Just brilliant!

  • Thank you so much for this...It is beautiful and a great tribute to a legend

  • GOD GONNA GET YA DOWN - BEST SONG EVER

  • its gods gona cut u down dude lol

  • Nice, Bono really channels Johnny with "nothin but the thought of you", and "sons turn their fathers in" then "I went with nothin, but the thought you'd be there too" expresses a remorse for a father that wasn't always there. But redemption is the theme, no doubt. The Wanderer went walkin... and driftin... and searching for one good man. Lookin you you. I went wandering!
  • Awesome. :)

  • I remember sitting with my friends at home and listening to "Zooroopa",the TV was on,sound was muted. We still did not know he passed away then,when suddenly his pictures appeared on TV,while this track just started playing on the stereo.pure magic.

  • I went out there

    In search of experience

    To taste and to touch

    And to feel as much

    As a man can

    Before he repents

  • lyrics by bono ... music by u2

    now how do you feel

  • this is one of my favorite songs ever...great lyrics, killer voice...thanks johnny...

  • my hero forever!!!

  • im skint without cash!!!!!!

  • This is pretty much how I feel now.

  • You know how to get inside the heart

    Thanks fella!

    Ti Abbraccio, Mimmo

  • This Is Unbelievabley Good, Thank You!

  • GREAT JOB MATE! I really love that! Very, very, very beautiful!

  • Outstanding

  • wow this is really great

  • belle hommage merci

  • Wow, excellent video.  15 years later, this still remains an amazing song.

  • What an awsome song and VDO clip. Thanks. I miss JC but he is now sitting next to JC in Gloryland.

  • MAN, THat was very good. I played this song for a live gig I did at my local coffee shop. I love the lyrics, I wished I wrote this song it means allot to me.

  • probably the best tribute to the best artist/singer/songwriter ever

  • I just love this song :)

  • Fantastic song / Fantastic video enough said!

  • great video except those lyrical parts

  • It's a historical mistake to use June Carter as Johnny's one. The fact is that Johnny was opened up, relationally by June and others, but that it was ultimately the reconciliation with God himself, that would have been in Johnny's mind.

    'A spirit who would not break or bend, who would sit at his fathers right hand...'

  • I'm not exactly sure what your trying to say but just remember these are Bono's lyrics.

  • wow this is so good thanks,great work

  • man, it rips your heart out to watch this but its so good

  • Well done great video i had a tear in my eye watching this

  • Excellent, very well done.
