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.
