Notice how he barely moves and stands in one spot, unlike the shitty artists today who rely on fast movement,pyrotechnics, and bright lights to grab your attention, this man did it only with his voice...they dont make em like that anymore RIP Johnny Cash
The 'best' of the 'best' - best cowboy song, best & most charismatic entertainer by far, only Elvis comes close. This performance will live forever . . . R.I.P.
Its cool for me to see people who listen to other people who listen to other types of music, that grew up with this stuff. I listen mostly to R&R (1950s-1989, roughly), and blues, but I grew up with this (and other genres that was on the fam comp). And I totally agree that one needs to be open to other music, for the reasons mentioned...
The first piece of recorded music I purchased with my own money was Johnny Cash, Folsom Prison. Of course the second was Led Zeppelin II but to this day Johnny remains near and dear to my heart. As long as his name is remembered Johnny is still alive.
a few weeks ago, i was watching some show on tv ....and they are ok....J Cash or Elvis....everyone was oh hellll no...you cant ask that question!!! How can u choose? They are both Kings...Elvis was the King of Rock and J Cash is the King of Country/Outlaw music..u just cant choose...I love both .is like J Cash is one man everyone likes...no matter what culture or music style they are into..somehow somewehre everyone knew J Cash and admires and respects him.
cash didnt write it though he just sang it . the only reason everyone loves cash so much is because of his vocal chords....if he had a diferent voice people would be like yeah whatever.....
@dawson668 Never the less.... People like him for his vocal chords and that is why we like other songs too: Because of their artists' vocal chords. (at least a part of it) Now, Cash has some good music, and some good covers... Still he's so big that I can't think of any artist living today that will reach him even to his knees.
I have always had a clear picture in my mind of that dark and windy day. Horse back riding in a field that has to small of bushes to hide in, and seeing the ghost riders riding aacoss the sky. I was a 5 yrs old or younger seeing that vision and to this day it remains the same and I'm 34 now
I love metal. I have a Pantera tatto even but cash is just fucking epic. I grew up listening to him and hank and the other outlaw country singers. I love them all.
My dad (rip) played on the grand ol'opry stage as lead guitar and bass......and he played for the BEST!!!! but this one is the greatest of all time!!!! years later....he played in his own band...and when i would walk in....he would instantly change the song they were playing...to ghost riders! what a great memory for me....may the greats RIP!!!!!!! also when i first heard this song i was very young, sittn in a diner in clinton, indiana...i made evrybody be quiet so i could hear it!!!! lol

This is one of the greatest versions of "Ghost Riders in the Sky" I've ever heard...My roommate is a big "Ghost Riders" fan, and he enjoyed Johnny Cash's haunting and eloquent performance...Thank you for sharing this musical posting...
I'm a little ashamed to admit this, but Fred Penner led me here. I've listening to his cover of this song (shivers going up and down my spine), since I was three.
Cash R.I.P, your music will never die! Legend! One word and thats; Legend! i repeat L to the E to the G and then END, but this will never end. This kind of music will live forever.
@1stREMESquaddie I remember in 1964,I was eight years old and living in Lacey,Washington.My dad had the Johnny Cash album ''Ring of Fire''.everytime I hear Johnny Cash,I think of those days......Johnny Cash was a national tresure.I think you are right on,I don't know ANYONE who had such great voice control at lower ranges.He was a REAL MAN,not some pussified eunuch who is emasculated by our ''culture''..He is indeed,singing before God,who I have heard is a Johnny Cash fan! Semper Fidelis!!
how come in some versions he says yippee-i-ay before yippe-i-oh? I always sing it how this version is (with oh first), but why does he switch it up sometimes and which is the original?
I am a METAL HEAD, at 44, yes, I grew up with it and still listen to it every day. But I also grew up listening to C/W music like Johnny Cash, Tennessee Ernie Ford, Tammy Wynette, and Dolly. As well as a plethra of music interests from my aunts and uncle. I appriciate all types of music, and Mr. Cash has always been a long standing favorite artist in my book of music. One should not be closed minded to any music, for it all embeds the soul.
@SinsiousSiren Wow, are you my long lost sibling? I too am a speed/metalhead. Im 46, and i have been rockin forever, but just as you, i grew up listening to old school country western on my aunt and uncles ranch. At the time, here in central california, that was the most popular music, and it opened my eyes to many different sounds and styles of music. Long live Johnnys music!
@SinsiousSiren Yes I agree with you. It is important for someone to have an open mind and listen to different types of music. That is what made the difference between the Led Zeppelins, Stones and other British groups. They listened to and appreciated jazz and blues which allowed them to create great music. The Who was playing their own brand of jazz before they became a rock band. Groups who grew up only listening to what we call classic rock like Van Halen etc. was very limited in scope.
What if Johnny Cash were to stroll onto the stage at American Idol? hehe Simon would freakin faint hehe (yes, I know he's dead..I'm jusy saying what if)
Few days ago, some friends of mine were talking about music. They were talking a lot about rap and stuff like that (That auto-tune shit that I hate) and I told them I wasn't a fan of that.
They said "Oh please don't say you like country music"
I said "I like Johnny Cash."
That had our conversation go on for about an hour, and we talked about real music.
This is the best (and for me the only) version of this song...the rough low voice of Johnny just vibrates through you as you listen to it, almost as if you can feel the horses thundering by...miss you Johnny Rest In Peace
This really brings in image of a western to mind. The first time I heard "Knights of cydonia" by Muse, I also thought of this. If you haven't heard it, listen to the guitar riff and the drums, which are meant to sound like a horse gallop. To me, they both have the same imagery. Keep in mind I thought this before I saw the video, which is a bit of a western.
I can dance all night at a rave, jump up and down at a metal concert, workout to electronic/hip/hop but none of it compares to just listening to Johnny Cash. It's an activity in its self. He's a story teller.
There have been a lot of greats to sing this song, but in my opinion nobody does it as well as "The man in black" . Country music singers need to remember their roots!!
odedharth I answered your comment, but it looks like I sent too myself to myself..But if you'll go back to the comment you sent me... It's the one I left you ... It's the on with all the (Lol's) and it looks lol like I sent it it to my self ..But is too YOU...LoL...Ray!!!!
Lol,Lol,lol And still Laughing..I've Never gotten a comment that I just flat Love as much as yours...I'm gonna keep it forever or maybe longer,I love it and I'm still laughing LoL!!!! Thanks for makin' my day....Ray!!!!urs
My grandpa used to speak the lyrics to this song all the time. He passed away about a year ago and when i listen to this song, all the memories of him come flooding back. I'm planning on getting a tattoo somehow including this song.
my dad met him drove him around caught 5 of his harmocnicas and sang with him all before i was born...would have been cool to meet him R.I.P brilliant song man in black 4 eva
Of all of Johnny's songs that I thrill to hear, and there are many, I believe this one shows the strength, range, and beauty if his voice the best. Also, notice the audience, they are captivated until the last note.
i miss the old days. when times was good. but the only thing i dont miss is listening to a 8 track player because after listening to this song or another favorite you had to click the button three times and then listen to another song or two before you could get back to this one to hear it again. lol that was what we called fast forwarding back then. lol and when they made cassettes it would wear out rewinding and fast forwarding all the time to get back to a song in less than a month. lol
@patu8010 Yes, it was Glen Sherley who wrote Greystone Chapel recorded by Johnny Cash. On his release from prison he toured and performed with him until he threatened the life of Marshall Grant.
Country today is pop garbage! Get back to the roots, Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, and Willie!

Of all of Johnny's songs that I thrill to hear, and there are many, I believe this one shows the strength, range, and beauty if his voice the best. Also, notice the audience, they are captivated until the last note.

i miss the old days. when times was good. but the only thing i dont miss is listening to a 8 track player because after listening to this song or another favorite you had to click the button three times and then listen to another song or two before you could get back to this one to hear it again. lol that was what we called fast forwarding back then. lol and when they made cassettes it would wear out rewinding and fast forwarding all the time to get back to a song in less than a month. lol

Didn't he get this one guy out of prison and try to change his life before the guy in question committed suicide?

@patu8010 Yes, it was Glen Sherley who wrote Greystone Chapel recorded by Johnny Cash. On his release from prison he toured and performed with him until he threatened the life of Marshall Grant.
