@TheRedDash That's Clint Lowery. He's normally doesn't sing, but he was perfect for this one. He has some acoustic based solo projects in case you are interested.
I enjoyed the cover song, but at the end when the singer said 'Johnny Cash ya'll, Johnny Cash', I couldn't quite decide whether or not I should have expected more (read: WHO WROTE IT, REALLY? CASH OR REZNOR?) from Sevendust.
I mean, I've come to expect it from the MTV crowd. They really think Johnny Cash wrote 'Hurt', not Trent Reznor.
@SGTpigratfish It's a bit like Jimi Hendrix with "all along the watchtower". The original was great but everyone remembers the cover, and probably for good reason. In both cases a middling song in the original artists' repertoire was elevated by an inspired cover version.
Dylan and NIN fans generally prefer the originals, but for everyone else, great music is great whoever wrote it.
@andrewsurtees Sorry, but your statement that Hurt was one of NIN's "middling" songs is simply not true. It's been one of their flagship performances since its release in the mid-90's.
You're also wrong about All Along The Watchtower. Hendrix transformed folk into rock and created a totally different sound than what Dylan had originally produced. Conversely, Cash's cover of Hurt was pretty much the same as Reznor's, softened around the edges and presented in a different light.
A lot of people give flack to performers who make mistakes on stage. But the truth is it happens all the time. Its how you handle the mistakes that separates the professionals from the amateurs. When he messed up the lyrics a couple of times, he didn't skip a beat. He put something there and made it work. That's the sign of a professional and he deserves respect for that.
Reznor wrote it, many covered it, Cash made it his own. Say what you will, a dying, broke, old widower with a lifetime of regrets puts feeling into it that young millionares never could. Junkies or not. Take a song like Wagon Wheel by Bob Dylan. Covered a million times but when I hear it, I think of Against Me!, or at least Tom Gable. Many artists write songs that become synonomous with another artist. Imitation is the sincerist form of flattery.
Bob Dylan is still Bob Dylan, Like Glenn Miller is still, Glenn Miller. Dizzy Gillespie. Covers are rarely greater than the original. Attempts by modern bands are often as you say, sincere flattery. Really though, imo, no one can do what They did. We can't even get our hats on right.
@funkleatus and just for the sake of saying it... ur a cunt :)
i think it's a nice cover (this version) but pretty shitty that he sings the wrong lyrics for the last two lines of the second verse... it totally fucks it up.... it's supposed to be "you are someone else I am still right here" but he seems to forget the lyrics and says "I am someone else, but I remember everything" (the latter half being the last line of the first verse. He sings beautifully though... Lajon should have sang as well
Just for the sake of saying it, Trent reznor has made a successful career of putting out the same rearranged crap for 20+ years. He was a faggy little synth-pop reject in the 80's
@zsallen394 depeche mode originally wrote the song in the late 80s. Johnny Cash did a cover of it as well the band Marilyn Manson. On their Lest We Forget album.
YA KNOW I LOVE THIS COVER, BUT IT ABSOLUTELY INFURIATES ME THAT THEY GIVE THE CREDIT TO JOHNNY CASH. IT'S NOT HIS FUCKING SONG. DON'T GET ME WRONG, I LOVE JOHNNY CASH BUT TRENT REZNOR WROTE THE GOD DAMN SONG AS NIN SO GET IT RIGHT BRO.
@silverzsplizash You know why they credit Johnny Cash right? well if not it is because Cash had just died when they played this. So they were just showing respect to him.
One time some guy tried to tell me it was Johnny Cash who wrote this song and not Trent Reznor, which is ppular opinion. And I said that was bullocks. Bullshit. NIN wrote Hurt plain and simple. But then I did some research and turns out that crazy guy was right about it the whole time. I posted all the evidence up on my channel so you guys can learn the truth too. Turns out Johnny Cash really did write the song, and a lot of people collaborated to and make it seem otherwise.
Cash changed around some of the words like "dust" to "dirt" and "crown of shit" to "crown of thorns" ...and removed the use of profanity which NIN originally used. Sevendust uses the same lyrics of that as Cash, along with the slower tempo and single instrument (guitar not piano like Reznor) So Sevendust's cover is that of Cash's plain and simple. It is a cover of a cover lol and regardless of who did it first, It's a timeless song!
Reznor's lyrics are 'dirt', not dust. Cash did use 'thorns' instead of 'shit' though. When you say that Sevendust covers Cash, that is ridiculous. So you think it is a cover of a cover? hahaha. Great song though, indeed! You also say that this is a slower tempo. The original- and best- is slower than both Cash's and this (terrible) version. Sevendust did a better job with Hurt than Linkin Park (or whomever did it recently) did with Wish. Ugh.
@TheGreyhound85 actually Rick Rubin changed those words before he even handed it to Cash, because he knew Cash wouldnt sing the song if it was vulgar.
Hurt was first written and performed by NIN on the album Downward Spiral in '94. It was later covered in '02 by Cash. It was big for Cash because it was the last song he played before his death, as well as acquiring alot of fans who never heard it from NIN simply because the two artiest perform for quite differant audiances. Reznor and Cash were actually friends and considered it an honor. Reznors take on the song was more suicidal while Cash's was more spiritual.
maybe they were more inspired by cash's version that the nine inch nails one? i know being born in '93, i heard the cash version first, and only really heard about nine inch nails years later. i don't really like that kind of music, whatever, it's fine, but if i did a cover of the song id dedicate to cash too, because that's the man who influenced me. music is an art form based mostly on performance anyway.
Whats wrong with dedicating a song to someone great like Johnny cash even if it is a cover of a song alread? To deny this is to deny their respect for mister cash

I just put together a rendition of this and it's been beating on my eardrums from the inside ever since! Click on my name to check my version out. Props to Trent and Johnny and I know it's not anywhere on their level, but I think you'll like it!
I wonder why 10% of people dislike it. It might be messed up that at the end they credit Johnny Cash instead of Trent Reznor, but it's still an awesome cover.
Hey guys, I think DeliveryManBoy is just trolling you guys. He knows that Trent wrote it. But Trent did say in an interview shortly after Johnny Cash's death that although they did the song first, due to the fan base and how Johnny sang the song, he felt like it was just a cover before the original came out. Maybe he's being ignorant and misunderstood what Trent was saying in the interview. But all in all, just ignore kids that put "man" in their name, it's a dead giveaway that he's a kid.
Did you know that adolescence learn past tense words just by hearing it from conversation. They begin by saying things like "maked" and that shows that they are getting the concept of it. The begin to piece things together shortly after.
@mAdHaTTer3392 LOL you obviously didnt read the guy i was replying to's comment i was making fun of him for saying maked but you obviously didnt do a little research
You aren't much smarter. "Make" would need a comma after it, as "my friend" is an interjection. A question mark should end your first sentence, as the sentence is a question. Additionally, "adolescence" is a process; "adolescents" refers to physical people, and should have been used instead. The second "maked" needs a comma after: the sentence is a compound. "The" should be "They." "Explination" is spelled "explanation." Your grammatical references are atrocious, too. Happy?
For those that keep asking about the Johnny Cash reference, This concert was held not too long after Johnny Cash's death and this song was dedicated to him because he had covered it himself. I had a few friends that went to it.
I don´t understand why they changed lyric here, instead of "I wear this crown of shit." they used "I wear this crown of thorns." ... this version is very good but something could be done better, the cradle of song still lies in a way Reznor played it for the first time and only Johnny Cash matched it... very strange and torturing cover is made by YHDARL, that version is very extreme indeed due to genre they belong to : drone black metal with ambient influences... I recommend to all of you YHDARL
"Hurt" is a song written by Trent Reznor, first released on Nine Inch Nails' 1994 album The Downward Spiral. In 2002, "Hurt" was covered by Johnny Cash to critical acclaim; it was one of Cash's final hit releases before his death.
@martinimos gotta be honest, I love Johnny Cash's version better. Just because I think the song describes him so well. He did a great cover of it. R.I.P Johnny Cash.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@martinimos I can not believe that people actually think that Nine Inch Nails wrote this song. This is not at all the type of song a man like Trent Resnor would right. Trent Resnor never wen't through pain like this. Only a man like Johnny Cash could have written a masterpiece such as this. Go ahead and argue with me. I have proof that I am right on my channel. You will admit I'm right after you have watched the videos on my channel that proove Johnny Cash wrote the song Hurt.
@DeliveryManBoy didn't Depeche Mode cover Cash's "Personal Jesus" too off the same album? and Soundgarden covered "Rusty Cage"? dude seriously shut up. thats a huge rant that just says you don't know your shit.
bloody hell thats why i hate fuckers doing covers, if the person who does the cover is more famous then the original singer, they automatically get credit for it
I see why NIN fans have such a hard time believing Reznor stole Hurt from Cash. I hate to admit it, but Reznor is a talented musician and has a wide bevy of appropriately moving and complex music. While I am not a fan of his, do to his blatant theft of Johnny Cash's song Hurt, I understand why you spend so much time posting mean things on my channel. NIN fans are sad and lonely people. It makes sense they would see Trent as a hero. But he shouldn't have covered Hurt.
@DeliveryManBoy Completely false statement. It's fine if you believe that Johnny's version of the song is better than Trent's but it was Trent who wrote it. Get Cash's CD and look at the liner notes if you don't believe it.
@vivazapata1910 People should not cover Johnny Cash! This song is terrible. The original Johnny Cash song is way better! Trent Reznor just doen't do this song the way Cash had intended it to be. And the worst part is that Reznor changes the word "thorns" to "shit." How could you be so full of hate? And I already know what wiki says and what the album credits say on the album you have at home. Trust me. It's all bullshit. It's a conspiracy by Trent. Proof is on my channel.
@DeliveryManBoy wow dude you're a fucking idiot!!! check the date the song came out you fucking moron! NIN didn't cover johnny cash. johnny cash covered them. ugh i hate ignorant people!
@DeliveryManBoy UAHUAHAUHAUAHUAHAUUAH Seriously? I'm not a fan of NIN, but when I first hear this song I liked so much that I was before the meaning of it and yes dude, it's from NIN. Check the videos, there is one of then playing with David Bowie back in 1995.
@DeliveryManBoy I guess I see what you're saying but look everyone - Cash wrote a great song, Reznor did a great cover - so where the fucks the problem?...
@bob200rps maybe, but I doubt it. Their cover just isn't that good-the singer's voice is rather monotone, in a bad way, the guitars sound like crap, and their stylings with the instrumentation is out of place.
I love both NIN and Cash versions.. even Trent Reznor said "it's not my song anymore" and the first time he heard Cash cover it, it felt like someone had kissed his girlfriend. lol... oh ya and this version BLOWS!
Nine Inch Nails WROTE the song in 1994, Johnny Cash COVERED it in 2004. The song was never released as single to the public, though, so many people never even knew the song existed until Cash covered it. They assumed it was his, although it was not. In my personal opinion, Cash made shit turn into sugar by covering that song, and Sevendust just made sugar turn into a fucking orgasm in my hear. It doesn't matter who made the song, it's amazing regardless.
Johnny Cash wrote and recorded a lot of music in his lifetime. He recorded a lot of serious songs, but he also recorded a lot of funny ones like “A Boy Named Sue.” There are a lot of Johnny Cash songs that I like. Some of my favorites are "Ring of Fire", "I Walk the Line", "Folsom Prison Blues", "Get Rhythm" and "Man in Black" just to name a few. But my favorite Johnny Cash song of all has got to be the song “Hurt.” Johnny Cash wrote the song in 1974 while serving time in Folsom prison.
@DeliveryManBoy You're wrong by far, Nine Inch Nails wrote this song, but johnny cash did do an awesome cover to get it huge. Trent Reznor was the person who actually wrote the song in 1994 and was on Nine Inch Nails album The Downward Spiral, and in 2002 Johnny Cash COVERED the song, he didn't write it. and it was his last hit before his death, but yes Trent Reznor (Lead singer of NIN) wrote this song.
@Crazysmiter1 wrong. check your facts before you go making wild statements. it was johnny cash who originally wrote this song. he just never had it recorded or copyrighted because he thought it was too special. Trent Reznor heard the song at a private engagement and recorded it as his own the following year. While johnny Cash never made a big deal about it, he was deeply offended to have his song covered by a necropheliac. There is a bit of evidence to this fact on my channel I have provided.
@DeliveryManBoy Dude, you are way off. How about you go look up facts, Trent Reznot wrote the song in 94' Johnny COVERED yes..COVERED the damn song in 2002, so don't start all this shit and make yourself look stupid. Maybe you should jump off Johnny cashs DICK and give the credit where it is due to Trent reznor. Go wiki the song man, you will realize you are wrong.
@Crazysmiter1 Never argue with a retard it's impossible to win. We all know the song was written by Trent Reznor and Deliverymanboy is some stupid prick who is obviously delusional and can't read. The best we can do is flag his comments as spam and not give him the attention he so desperately craves.
Johnny Cash did a good COVER, but that will never be as good as NIN. Don't forget who came up with the song. Besides, it's best when taken in context with the rest of the Downward Spiral.
This is made too commercial. This song is about suicide and they let it sound like it would be good. Nine Inch Nails (The Origin) is the best version of the song
I think every one on here needs to stuff their cock holsters and appreciate the music.lol. This is a damn good song who cares what anyone else thinks anyways right? Were all entitled to our own opinion. Music is supposed to be heard not bitched over.
Well sheesh angry people. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe on not. Regardless, clearly some people take these comments way too personal and use cuss words to get points across. In turn, you portray yourself as an angry acne covered 14 year old boy who cannot control his testosterone and hormones. Try an adult-like approach and behaving like a civilized person; maybe you'll get somewhere in life. Horray for sevendust and this mans voice like an angel.
This version sucks, not enough pain

Hey guys, I think DeliveryManBoy is just trolling you guys. He knows that Trent wrote it. But Trent did say in an interview shortly after Johnny Cash's death that although they did the song first, due to the fan base and how Johnny sang the song, he felt like it was just a cover before the original came out. Maybe he's being ignorant and misunderstood what Trent was saying in the interview. But all in all, just ignore kids that put "man" in their name, it's a dead giveaway that he's a kid.

@Goldtacto Maked?
That's not past-tense for 'make' my friend.
Did you know that adolescence learn past tense words just by hearing it from conversation. They begin by saying things like "maked" and that shows that they are getting the concept of it. The begin to piece things together shortly after.
What is your explination for screwing this up?

@mAdHaTTer3392
You aren't much smarter. "Make" would need a comma after it, as "my friend" is an interjection. A question mark should end your first sentence, as the sentence is a question. Additionally, "adolescence" is a process; "adolescents" refers to physical people, and should have been used instead. The second "maked" needs a comma after: the sentence is a compound. "The" should be "They." "Explination" is spelled "explanation." Your grammatical references are atrocious, too. Happy?

I don´t understand why they changed lyric here, instead of "I wear this crown of shit." they used "I wear this crown of thorns." ... this version is very good but something could be done better, the cradle of song still lies in a way Reznor played it for the first time and only Johnny Cash matched it... very strange and torturing cover is made by YHDARL, that version is very extreme indeed due to genre they belong to : drone black metal with ambient influences... I recommend to all of you YHDARL

"Hurt" is a song written by Trent Reznor, first released on Nine Inch Nails' 1994 album The Downward Spiral. In 2002, "Hurt" was covered by Johnny Cash to critical acclaim; it was one of Cash's final hit releases before his death.

Trent Resnor never wen't through pain like this. Only a man like Johnny Cash could have written a masterpiece such as this. Go ahead and argue with me. I have proof that I am right on my channel. You will admit I'm right after you have watched the videos on my channel that proove Johnny Cash wrote the song Hurt.

I see why NIN fans have such a hard time believing Reznor stole Hurt from Cash. I hate to admit it, but Reznor is a talented musician and has a wide bevy of appropriately moving and complex music. While I am not a fan of his, do to his blatant theft of Johnny Cash's song Hurt, I understand why you spend so much time posting mean things on my channel. NIN fans are sad and lonely people. It makes sense they would see Trent as a hero. But he shouldn't have covered Hurt.

And the worst part is that Reznor changes the word "thorns" to "shit." How could you be so full of hate? And I already know what wiki says and what the album credits say on the album you have at home. Trust me. It's all bullshit. It's a conspiracy by Trent. Proof is on my channel.

Nine Inch Nails WROTE the song in 1994, Johnny Cash COVERED it in 2004. The song was never released as single to the public, though, so many people never even knew the song existed until Cash covered it. They assumed it was his, although it was not. In my personal opinion, Cash made shit turn into sugar by covering that song, and Sevendust just made sugar turn into a fucking orgasm in my hear. It doesn't matter who made the song, it's amazing regardless.

Johnny Cash wrote and recorded a lot of music in his lifetime. He recorded a lot of serious songs, but he also recorded a lot of funny ones like “A Boy Named Sue.” There are a lot of Johnny Cash songs that I like. Some of my favorites are "Ring of Fire", "I Walk the Line", "Folsom Prison Blues", "Get Rhythm" and "Man in Black" just to name a few. But my favorite Johnny Cash song of all has got to be the song “Hurt.” Johnny Cash wrote the song in 1974 while serving time in Folsom prison.

@DeliveryManBoy You're wrong by far, Nine Inch Nails wrote this song, but johnny cash did do an awesome cover to get it huge. Trent Reznor was the person who actually wrote the song in 1994 and was on Nine Inch Nails album The Downward Spiral, and in 2002 Johnny Cash COVERED the song, he didn't write it. and it was his last hit before his death, but yes Trent Reznor (Lead singer of NIN) wrote this song.
Crazysmiter1 10 months ago
@Crazysmiter1 wrong. check your facts before you go making wild statements. it was johnny cash who originally wrote this song. he just never had it recorded or copyrighted because he thought it was too special. Trent Reznor heard the song at a private engagement and recorded it as his own the following year. While johnny Cash never made a big deal about it, he was deeply offended to have his song covered by a necropheliac. There is a bit of evidence to this fact on my channel I have provided.
