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.
glad I came across this, I like the notes in this better than the tutorial I found. However I wish I could see the keys better, can't actually read notes DX
Nice cover. Your piano is in-tune, so thank you for that. Some of the other guys' videos playing this song had pianos that were out of tune and as a musician that drives me nuts. The spider did add a certain macabre creepiness to an already dark song.
About 10 years ago I watched a guy tune one of our pianos in college. He showed me that technique, but I have forgotten the intervals and the phasing frequencies he showed me. He had a strobe tuner and showed me that at certain intervals, the notes should phase with each other in a certain amount of time due to being "out of tune" slightly, but as you say, the ear hears it in tune. I wish I could remember how it's done, but it's just pure curiosity.
You are truly amazing! This song makes me tear up everytime i hear it. Your version is one of the best. Oh and i like the spider crawling across the camera :D
The spider is at 0:27. And I'm so eager to learn how to play this but I'm a watch and learn kind of player so the notes don't help ]: Excellent cover though.
I've been watching attempts at this song all afternoon and would love to add yours to the list of people who've utterly butchered it... but I can't! That was excellent! Best one on youtube! Added to my favorites. Well done for not fucking up this great piece of music!
He didn't butcher it. He's playing the exact notes from the piano part of the sheet, bass and treble for the hands. The Melody is normally supposed to be sung, but the other arrangements you've see have been playing a mix of treb and bass on the left hand, and the melody on the right.
Jus to clear up any disagreements, Rick rubin approached trent and asked if he could get Mr cash to cover the song. Trent was honoured and allowed him to but didnt know how it might end up. Later that month, i think, A recording of Cash's version was sent to trent. The the music video was sent to him. It was said that "it moved trent to tears".
Who Ever Says Johnny Cash originally wrote Hurt Is A Fucking Idiot!! If U Didnt Know Trent reznor From Nine Inch Nails Wrote This Song In like 1995 or Somthing Like that And Then Johnny Cash Covered This Song In Like 2003 Im Pretty Sure So Yeah!!! If U Think Johnny Cash Originally Wrote This Song Your a Fool!!!
They tols him to sing it and dont be an ass johnny cash is a legend you prick If your gonna make a point do it in a decent manner rather than putting it hateful on a deceased person.
Wrong, there buddy. Just because the JC version got more airplay and onny Cash is older than NIN doesn't mean anything. Trent Reznor wrote this song and a little google search will show you.
Sir Johnny Cash played the song near the end of his life which was post 1995. Trent Reznor wrote the song and released it on the 1995 album The Downward Spiral. Trent Reznor wrote the song but he does give Johnny Cash credit for making the song his own.
Are you mental ? Trent Reznor wrote this then Nine inch nails played it...trent reznor being the frontman of nine inch nails incase you didnt know and johnny cash covered it
haha, i should probably get off my ass an make something. i jus finished making a holder for the camera to be suspended over the piano. some day, i promise.
yeh its an old cam corder, i can turn all that jazz off but i have to do it everytime i turn it on, an i forgot that time, lukely i had Mr spider on the job doing his best to fix the problem.
Just go note by note on the video. i just figured out the main part now in about 10 minutes or so, and i can play it now without biting my lip or anything, And if i can, then anyone can, seriously. I'm a drummer ;)
