Johnny Cash - "God's Gonna Cut You Down"

[TR5T]

No one is born "saved" so all of us must decide to hear or reject.

Most reject because it means giving up pride, humbling one's self before the message "Je suis cupable".

"I am guilty". No one to blame, no victim mentality.

You get "it" or you don't. ........"and thou shalt be like the most high God, knowing good from evil".

Sooner or later.............the bill will come.

[Tnlrop]

Isaiah 40:6-8

[Melvo2050]

I didn't know Chris Rock was a Devil Worshiper. This shit is staring all of us in the Eye it dsn't take a genius to desifer the songs message.

P.S I dnt thnk the god they talk abt is the one the masses subscribe 2 if u know what i mean..

[nigeemac999]

im irish bono is a sac of poop

[BarEnFaroth]

Ye, Bobo Isn't Irish anymore.

Hasn't been for a while, has been to caught up in his American life.

Fuck Bono.

[BarEnFaroth]

..Bobo? 0.o Er... Yeah maybe. ;)

[balas31690]

powerful lyrics....long live the man in black...

[opie1985]

don't know if this makes it. Woody from cheers got nailed for pot, and look at the others. Open up your eyes. As a conservative. Wish you you well

[POWVideos87]

i couldn't care less about religion but this is a brilliant song. the stripped down nature of it makes it feel quite intimidating. one of the great canon of songs that should be left well alone by other artists.

[IamMeredithK]

I agree. Personally, I don't even like these other artists in the vidieo....almost kind of cheapens it.

[KDinFlux]

back biter

One who slanders another behind his back, i.e. in his absence. His bosom friends are become his back biters, said of a lousy man.

[zly81]

Dunno but i assumed its someone like back stabber.

[Sibleysibley]

Does anyone know what a back biter is? I always thought it meant a gay person, but I can't imagine Johnny Cash having a problem with gays.

[shaldana]

Heh -- you're a young one if you don't know what a back biter is, but it's someone who is two-faced & talks behind your back.  IE: Someone you thought was your best friend, but you find out that person has been trash talking about you to other people to hurt your reputation.

It's a backstabber, in a very bad way and absolutely nothing to do with gays, at all, whatsoever.

Hope that helps. :)

[Sibleysibley]

thanks!

[yougotGareBeared]

it may have just been a tribute. bit Maybe it was an insight to what johnny believed in. maybe it was fear. or maybe is was acceptence for all that he's done. good and bad

[dbcooper4437]

Funny downtrodden,but none in the vid is.

[OrthodoxKnight]

so many mason and illuminati signs

[Balderise]

End game is coming and the tares (the good) are going to be harvested by the Wheat (the perfect ) .

[oddfellow67]

watch it again, lets see... the all seeing eye, the signs of the skull, the giving hand... all signs of the MASONS, ODD FELLOWS, AND ILLUMINATTI..... hmm, seems like they are everwhere.

[ShadowDarkFyre]

What it is folks is nothing more than a tribute to Johnny Cash. They made it for hom after he died. Jaysus. Did't any of you notice they were wearing black in tribute to the Man in Black himself, Johnny Cash?

[kamranat]

all of his words has a meaning . the same meaning that you can find in 2pac - they dont give a fuck about us + killuminati .. or in the " Speech got jfk killed "

[FACKENRIGHTS]

i dont think the people in this vidio are in it to say "hey look, im a christian..." i think they are there to show tey beilevo in the song. and listen to the words, it has a little bit more then just the word "god" in it. its talking about the sell outs, and the fakes not just sinners

[HornyLee19]

great song but way too many retards in the vid

[sucka4free]

the mamacita at 2:11 is hotttttt!

who dat?

[thefallenopendoor]

at 1:21 is amy lee

[tonytonytee]

i love amy leeeeeee.!!!!!!

[ILoveES33]

Great song, you can feel his emotion. I was never the biggest Johnny Cash fan, but his cover of "Hurt" from NIN really got me. Plus I've always liked some of his songs, especially "A Boy Named Sue". Great work from The Man!

[bloodsugasexxmagik]

Not Keidis, but the woman.

[bloodsugasexxmagik]

Who's at 01:46? Thanks.

[YuxKid]

Isnt it the dude From Red hot chili peppers?

[RonnieOfTheEarth]

omg the participation of celebs in this vid is exeptional!

[sucka4free]

fuck the celebs

[Floravirag]

02:14...;)

[CaptJackSparrow1357]

i hate kate moss !!!iz she the person before cheyrl crow?????

[CaptJackSparrow1357]

YEssssssssssssssssssssss Johnny depp iz hawtttt!!!!!!!!

[jonleigh88]

I understand....Noone is putting noone one down

you have a choice in life...Alot of these celebrities have had problems they are just trying to show people that God cares..

[darelzebub]

skygod crap.

[Dice198]

why do you have to fight about everything on youtube one time its religion the other time its war why cant we agree that everyone has an other opinion you cant change the way an other person thinks the most shameful is that religions fight each other its just a shame every human/animal is equal live with that

[moffedille12]

so many celebrities.... johnny depp playin guitar;P

[blueelphant]

dont believe in god or any religon but like the song

[yogurtpimp]

thats ironic

[jollyjoe1989]

thats a pretty bad ass song and fighting over religion is stupid you telling me that Gandhi is gonna go to hell because he isnt christian thats bull to me and check out this song GOD HATES US ALL by Slayer the lead singer has a christain back ground 666 hahahaha

[yogurtpimp]

thats stupid

[lepermessiah76]

Good on jollyjoe1989 for speaking out against ignorance but the song by Slayer is called Disciple. Excellent song but it's a little different to Johnny Cash. I heard some of Cash's songs like Ring of Fire and other more famous ones and I never really saw what people like about him or his songs (not just because I like Slayer, there's country music I like other than Johnny Cash). I've been told watching "Walk the Line" would convert me haha.

[adtzi]

GOD HATES U ALL

[Carlrayb]

Why do you say that? Have you had bad experiences at a church?

[yogurtpimp]

i dont know, im pretty sure he said he loves all

[FlowerBySea]

i'm sorry, i know it sounds stupid, but what exactly does cut one down mean? beacause to me, the title sounded negative at first... ;)

[Carlrayb]

If God "cuts you down" that means you are going to die. Only those who believe in JESUS

CHRIST will escape eternal death. Repent and believe the gospel, that is the Good News that

Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners like you and me

[adtzi]

when god 'cuts you down' it refers to a fictional character of ancient folklore 'sucking jesus off and spitting in your face'(live in fear)

[yogurtpimp]

just cus you say that doesnt make it true

fuckin darwinist

[FlowerBySea]

so it means i'll die?

[Carlrayb]

Everyone is going to die sometime because we

are all sinners.

[yogurtpimp]

close your close read the other reply

[yogurtpimp]

these ppl who get away with there wicked deeds such as murder and rape who get away with such as they dont get caught or they get there case dismissed *coughs OJ coughs*

will eventually get whats coming to them, and its never just a simple death

[texformer]

I wonder if all the celebs in this video are really Christian or just those that believe in GOD? Just believing in GOD does not make a person a Christian.

James 2:19

You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder.

[adtzi]

yeah.... if you believe in god, you would kill for him.

[jollyjoe1989]

bad ass

[georgiafan6]

Why doesn't any1 watch this? it's a great song! and it makes soo much sense! Tell everyone 2 watch this video!

[turbov6bryan]

I did, but there is a better version on this site

HTH

BW

[phillips7361]

I grew up on Johnny Cash. My parents and grandparents both enjoyed Johnny & June. My Aunt purchased my first guitar and the very first songs that I learned to play were Johnny Cash (& June Carter Cash songs). It amazes me how many people , young and old alike, have felt an affinity to him and been drawn to his soulful music. This talent is God given, as all talent is. Johnny realized that fact and began to honor Christ with his music more and more in his later years.

[kenivolts]

KEWL DUDE!

[hStutch]

Did he write it?

[BetegEmber]

Im a pretty young fella (18) and I have to say I totally adore Mr. Cash and his works.

Amazing.

[eatpsylocybin]

they might as well put all the other backstreet boys in it and paris hilton and maybe some1 from american idol and the real world

[phillips7361]

I believe that this video was made of people who readily identify themselves as Christians...Bono would be a case in point here and then those who do not identify themselves in such a way, such as Madonna who has openly admitted to the press that she is a follower of JEwish mysticism called Kabalaism; which is not the same as Judaism, it is a perversion of it.

[bullhhh]

pritty good song

[3sporks]

Good Vid. Read over some posts... nice to see some emo loving twats commenting on a Mr. Cash song. One point I read, the people in the video - half of them are liars and most likely back-stabbing cunts. Of all of the people on there I think maybe about 3 or 4 of them arent in the category listed off by Johnny.

[phillips7361]

I believe some have mistaken that all of the people in the video are who Johnny's singing about and that all are "no accounts" but, there are, on the other hand, those whose comments I have read on here that think that Johnny was revering these people in this video and they are all Christians. Well, both of these assumptions are wrong

[Tigerlily21]

Kate Moss looks the coolest. Shut up snobs! Probably don't even know much about Johnny Cash, just think it's cool to slag the video off because of the stars in it. Get the stick out of your asses self righteous fucks!

[phillips7361]

He made no excuses about his past, neither did he try to deny it's sortid existence, but rather made sure that people knew the change in his life was Christ. It saddens me to see people using such disparaging language in reference to him and his music, I am certain Johnny and his wife and family would agree with me when I say that GOd has used his talent to get people to notice and speak about such matters as "the Man from Galilee" and so forth.

[futuresexlovesounds]

how recent was this video shot?

[jerry011001]

check out my "god's gonna cut you down" it has better quality.

[Panushkin]

its an old folk song and ya cash rocks it

[Summerlove89]

I love this song since I heard it the first time...such a great video! R.I.P Johnny Cash

[rickyperson]

whats with that like 8 second pause?

[visciouslemons]

anthony and flea! yay!

[thebermudian]

Great video , great song ..RIP Johnny Cash .

[jericoholic2004]

i like it r.i.p dude

[banshee0071978]

rest in peace brother

[Couture8080]

I love this song, its alot btter then the Elvis version "run on" because it had a much more dark and serious tone, Elvis made the song to bouncy.

[jimboa20]

This video isn't a Johnny Cash video, but rather a Johnny Cash tribute video. I like it as is because it shows how much impact Johnny Cash really had on the entertainment industry. It's a very nice tribute to him.

[Californication4ever]

anthony kiedis and flea....what a blast!

[Sdf1987]

That is so cool three of my favorite celebrities were in this video. Those three celebrities were Bono, Iggy Pop, and Travis Barker. It such a cool music video.

[lennon78]

one of the worst videos ever to be seen!!fuck jt!!what have these people got to do with johnny cash?

[daithi6]

there paying respect to him, he influenced them all!

[thebermudian]

They are all artists / people that have been inspired & touched by his music.

[FireOfpassion]

yup say it coz it is all true. a true leader should lead, ya please go listen to this song type last breath n wathc n listen not the one with cris cornnel the other one with the sky

[ourania]

Thank you for posting this video.

This is Run On, Elvis Presley sang this song too and in his album "How Great Thou Art" it is called "Run On" - Best regards to all of you

[elmareko]

i like johnny cash and many of the musicians but why get actors and models like kate moss?!

[utuber8899]

most of the idiots in this vid are tryin to get free publicity by bein in a johnny cash vid. they r supposedly payin tribute to johnny but they r the people he's talkin bout in the song. they look like fools. johnny wouldnt like this vid. or he would laugh at the fact that these fools r perfect examples for the message and don't seem to know it.

[chavador]

lol like Jay-Z? he's just making publicity for rocafella XD

[mmajsherman]

no truer words have been spoken!!

Leave it to Johnny cash to speak the truth!

[roycepolybuck]

This video stinks. Nothing but a bunch of celebrities posing like nitwits, desperate to be associated with Johnny Cash, all of them totally unaware of how stupid they look.

[fcescgb]

It does not get any better than this. Hell yeah!

[hyperbuoy]

forget about the fact that these celebrities are all fairly lame, the video is poorly executed and boring. it's ugly.

[xjohnnysxpiratex]

Oh my God...Johnny Depp is effing gorgeous.

[SuperJoe22]

Best video I've seen in ages, awesome celebs, Kate Moss, Amy Lee, Dixie Chicks, awesome stuff!

[sebloveX]

sound?

[Austin765]

Awesome video. Thanks. Johnny Cash is my faviorate and I am collecting his music.

[335Twang]

Heb 9:27 & 28 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:

So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.

[hotheelsrecords]

Some of these cats in the video have integrity in my mind, but I wonder how many would have been in this video back when Cash was a redneck in teenybopper consciousness. I have a hard time seeing that Timberlake fellow (and a few others featured here) as anything but a tool. Maybe I'm being cynical.

[phantomhitman]

mr cash only speaks the truth, and nothing but the truth

[fgwb]

Is this a cover of a Moby song?

[thereddoor]

god i hope that's sarcasm

[jon316t]

THIS IS GREAT

[Hostile]

Rich people. Fucking great. They're all long-tongued liars, midnight riders, ramblers, gamblers and back-biters. THEY are the ones who are gonna get cut down. This video is an insult.

[SexyBubbbles]

I think that's the point. If you're doing wrong by yourself or anyone else, it doesn't matter if you're black, white, rich, poor...you will eventually be held accountable. Whether the people who appear in the video think it's a cool cameo or they take the words of the song seriously, the end result will be the same for all.

[Hostile]

Well, I think the point might actually have been to cash in on Johnny's legendary fame by appearing in an official video, but I see what you're getting at.

[jon316t]

FUCK YOU UR A INSULT

[guttersnippet]

exactly, you understand it, why are you insulted?

[cbluvsmusic]

Johnny thankfully most of these artists did an amazing tribute to you while you were still with us,now they are again paying their respect to you and carrying on your msg with alot of class and respect, I am sure you are smiling down,but alittle dissapointed so many haters will be among just what this song says! R I P

[lillybeez]

Its a good video, just a shame its spoilt by the inclusion of a few annoying celebrities , clearly jumping on a bandwagon.grrr.

[nsande1]

The song is saying much more than most people will realize or ever admit. It is mostly about the patience of God ("you can run on for a long time") and the justice of God ("sooner or later God'll cut you down"). The song leaves no room for unbelief.

[K3vinF]

God's gonna cut us all down. Great. Sounds like an Al Qaeda warning.

[SexyBubbbles]

i think this video is saying more than we realize. love or hate the people in the video, seems like a confession to me. sooner or later, if we don't follow his rules, god will cut us all down.

[rclark381]

ok heres the deal. this the best way all of johnny's friends and fans could pay a little respect so dont think the video is bad just because of the actors. and people wonder why johnny wore black

[firebrandX]

Love Johnny Cash, happy to see fellow musicians pay their respects, but the actors have no business there. They probably never even heard of Johnny Cash until he died. They can f*ck themselves for trying to steal Johnny's last spotlight.

[thecowbell]

shut up you idiot...damn you're an idiot...stop talking

[katheguard]

OMG, Johnny Depp looks soooooo hot.

[mitchjerkwad13]

hmmmmm....kinda lame....they did this to Tupac Shakur...and that was lame too, both incredible musicians....Johnny more than Tupac...but seriously...why the hell would you make a video without the artists consent after they're DEAD?

[mattyboy9]

i dont really care for the video but definitly a damn good song... RIP johnny

[shorty0313]

I can't believe that most of the comments are about who is or isn't in it.It's about God's judgement to those who know his commandments and still want to do things their way.How a person with sin in their life can one day experience judgement in a major way.Pride comes before a fall.Just saying that those who think they can just do whatever are in for a rude awakening when judgement comes.Things may look fine now,but there is no mistaking when a person is "cut down" by God. Fear Him.

[atleastiknow]

Wow awesome video.

I think I get it.

[lalalala005]

The video has nothing to do with the song.  I think it takes away from the songs message.

[fa17ur3]

you are all dumb...if you don't like the video...dont watch it...dont say it ruined the song...because you can still have the song...its not like it'll make you think about how bad (which it isnt even bad) the video is...the song is still great...johnny is still amazing

[lovelyshit3]

& adam levine 's there too !

[Cher0214]

lovelydarkness333 your a dumbass and i hope you get read this comment because you really should know.

[onlydepp]

johnny depp looks so hot there.. my god best video ever.. full of cool people

Johnny Cash deserved it n_n

[psychokiller141]

fantastic song, awful video.

yes, they're paying tribute to him. doesn't make it a good video.

[thadopeman]

what the fuck are these fucking lame celebs doing in a Johnny Cash vid? He'd be turning in his grave. Twatty Bono? Fucking Q-tip? Get fucked you bunch of insipid try-hard cunts.

Great song ruined by an awful, awful video.

[cmsolowski]

Cash actually did a remake of U2's song one so I don't think he would be upset with bono in his video

[jend80]

and they'd already recorded together (Cahs is on U2's song The Wanderer)

[juggarnaut12]

I like this song alot I'm not a big Johnny Cash fan but this could persuade me to listen to more of his music

[babyfirefly666]

People are tripping. These people are in the video in tribute to him, to honor his LEGEND. Johnny Cash has a HUGE inclufence on music today and that's why these people are in here. I think is an awesome video, I was surprised to see Amy Lee and Johnny Depp in there but it's great. I miss the Man in Black and his lady love, June so much. Where's Trent Reznor? It would have been awesome to throw him in considering Johnny's cover of "Hurt" is one of the most touching amazing songs ever recorded.

[thadopeman]

they can get fucked. lovelydarkness is spot on, hed be turning in his grave.

[babyfirefly666]

I highly doubt that. Anyone who could cover songs from so many genres (johnny) would not turn in his grave to see such a plethora of people. You people probably got into Johnny after watching Walk the Line so YOU people need to get effed. Seriously.

[lovelydarkness333]

the song is the shit. jonny was the shit, but what on EARTH is up with this video!? did they actually make this AFTER his death!? poor dudes rollin' in his grave

[seanybiker]

Thats a great song. The man was and always will be a legend. Few cool people int he vid also a few who shouldnt be there but hey. who cares it was for Johnny so chilax.

[scalizi]

dope...I like the fan vidz too tho.

[whitemanhopz04]

all you fools are just haters..its a great song and a cool video

[RadRock14]

Don't forget Anthony Keidis and Flea

[vituspoelzig]

those deserve to be in the video:Iggy Pop,Mick Jones(The Clash),Kris Kristofferson,Dennis Hopper,Patty Smith and Brian Wilson

Maybe:Sir Peter Blake,Woody Harrelson,Keith Richards, Billy Gibbons and Rick Rubin

[thepogues26]

that's official list

[KillianX]

you (they) left out whoopi goldberg

[BigDFlutie]

brilliant video,great song,i miss johnny i'm only 17 so i never heard him much! i think its great to see ppl from different genres of music and races to show there support to the man in black,apparntly some ppl like to be negative and not look at the point of the video

[v8hellbillyv8]

johnny cash is fucking rad but i couldn't care less about all these other faggits

[xhomewreckerx]

This is abysmal. All of these pointless, talentless pieces of crap it this video (with the exception of Iggy)

What a lame fucking video

[spaghettiballs]

Eeh, nothing special. The fan video with The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly is WAY better.

[napoleon1967]

Wow, this is horrific.

[thepogues26]

... Amy Lee (Evanescence), Tommy Lee, Dixie Chicks, Mick Jones, Sharon Stone, Bono, Shelby Lynne, Anthony Kiedis, Travis Barker, Lisa Marie Presley, Kid Rock, Jay Z, Keith Richards, Billy Gibbons, Corinne Bailey Rae, Johnny Depp, Graham Nash, Brian Wilson, Rick Rubin, Owen Wilson

[BigDFlutie]
